While Meng Zhang was taking action, changes occurred secretly in many places in Jiuqu Province.
The southern part of Jiuqu Province is densely covered with water networks, with countless large and small rivers and lakes.
Under an inconspicuous small lake, there is a very secret cave.
At this time, Zhenjun Wen Dong and his party were hiding in this cave.
The Dali Dynasty has ruled Jiuqu Province for some years.
In these years, the Dali Dynasty established many secret strongholds in various places in Jiuqu Province as usual.
The Dali Dynasty also had institutions similar to the Taiyimen Dark Hall, and there were more than one.
Dali Dynasty, as a huge cultivation force with a history far beyond Taiyi Sect, has many wise men within it.
They planned ahead and considered many situations. In response to these different situations, a lot of preparations have been made and various responses have been prepared.
The secret strongholds spread throughout almost the entire Jiuqu Province are part of these preparations.
In the entire Jiuqu Province, the number of secret strongholds owned by the Dali Dynasty was far greater than everyone in the Taiyi Sect expected.
There are also many monks lurking in secret.
After the official power of the Dali Dynasty in Jiuqu Province was destroyed, the remnants of the Dali Dynasty did not flee far away, but chose these secret strongholds as hiding places.
The news that Wendong Zhenjun and Hengdao Zhenjun led their remaining defeated soldiers to escape from Jiuqu Province and return to the mainland of Dali Dynasty was deliberately released by them to hide the news from the Taiyi Sect monks who were chasing them. Let your guard down.
Among these remaining defeated generals, Hengdao Zhenjun, as a general in the army, had the experience of hiding his identity and sneaking into the Jiuqu League many years ago, so he became the leader without hesitation.
Zhenjun Wen Dong was barely a counselor when he was with Zhang Weineng.
As his deputy, he assisted Hengdao Zhenjun and helped him check for leaks and fill in the gaps.
They were hiding in the dark, secretly contacting the remnants of the Dali Dynasty scattered everywhere, trying to gather everyone’s strength to plot big things.
After experiencing a big defeat, everyone became much more cautious.
They knew they couldn’t compete with Meng Zhang head-on, so they kept hiding and waiting for the opportunity.
When Meng Zhang led the expeditionary army to Daheng Cultivation Realm, Hengdao Zhenjun thought that the opportunity had come and was ready to take action.
However, for the sake of caution, Zhenjun Wen Dong asked Zhenjun Hengdao not to be anxious, but to wait a little longer.
When Meng Zhang led the army of monks into an ambush by the monster army, and the news of their disastrous defeat spread back to Jiuqu Province, everyone thought that the real opportunity had come.
Although Zhenjun Wen Dong was still a little confused, he had no reason to stop everyone.
What’s more, at this time, they received support from monks from the Dali Dynasty.
After careful preparation, they launched a counterattack against Taiyimen.
Of course, due to the long distance between Daheng Cultivation World and Jiuqu Province, and the deliberate obstruction by interested people, they were unable to obtain the latest news from Daheng Cultivation World and did not know the subsequent developments.
Otherwise, they may not have the determination to cause rebellion.
They launched a counterattack against Taiyi Sect this time, and they never expected to be able to defeat Taiyi Sect like this.
Even the most proactive Lord Hengdao is very aware of the huge strength gap between his side and the Taiyi Sect.
The purpose of their rebellion was just to create chaos in Jiuqu Province and distract Meng Zhang who was in Daheng Cultivation World.
It would be even better if the major cultivation forces could have doubts about Taiyi Sect and shake Taiyi Sect’s rule.
The best outcome is that because of the fire in the backyard, Meng Zhang is unable to fight against the monsters wholeheartedly, so he is tightly entangled by the monsters, giving them more time to cause greater damage to Taiyi Sect. of destruction.
Because he had never relaxed his vigilance against Meng Zhang, Zhenjun Wen Dong acted very cautiously.
He did not rashly reveal the whereabouts of his group.
Every time, he secretly leaves the secret stronghold, completes the mission, and sneaks back again.
On the other hand, Lord Hengdao, because he is the main force of this attack, will come forward to contact all the cultivation forces and instigate them to resist the Taiyi Sect.
So sometimes, you have to stay somewhere other than the secret stronghold.
However, because of the cover of the Datong Merchant Alliance, he is not afraid of his whereabouts being exposed.
Zhenjun Wen Dong and Zhenjun Hengdao both have special communication tools that allow them to keep in touch.
Not long ago, he suddenly lost contact with Lord Hengdao.
Zhenjun Wen Dong suddenly became uneasy.
Of course, there are many reasons for the interruption of the communication magic weapon, and it may not necessarily mean that something happened to Zhenjun Hengdao.
For example, the communication magic weapon malfunctioned; Hengdao Zhenjun was in some special place, and the contact was blocked; Hengdao Zhenjun was entangled in important matters and could not reply to Wendong Zhenjun in time, etc.
However, at a moment like this, anything that goes wrong at all will make Zhenjun Wen Dong think too much.
At this moment, a monk with white hair and an extremely weak appearance appeared in front of Zhenjun Wen Dong.
This man’s name is Lu Gangfeng, a monk from the Dali Dynasty.
Not long ago, he led a group of monks to Jiuqu Province and contacted Zhenjun Wendong and his group through a special contact method.
Lu Gangfeng told Wendong Zhenjun and his gang that they left the mainland of the Dali Dynasty and came to Jiuqu Province for a secret mission.
But I didn’t expect that such a change would happen in Jiuquxing Province, and even the rule of the Dali Dynasty would be overturned.
Such changes made it difficult to complete their secret mission.
But the secret mission was not completed, and they could not just return to the homeland of the Dali Dynasty in such despair.
Neither Hengdao Zhenjun nor Wendong Zhenjun is qualified to interfere with their secret mission.
Lu Gangfeng and his party temporarily stayed in the mainland of the Dali Dynasty, keeping company with this group of defeated soldiers.
When Hengdao Zhenjun and others launched a counterattack against Taiyi Sect, Lu Gangfeng and others also provided a lot of support and were of great help.
During this process, Lu Gangfeng also revealed his identity as a Tianji master.
In any cultivation force, Tianji Master has a very high status, his identity is strictly kept secret, and he plays a decisive role in many aspects.
Especially Yuanshen stage monks like Lu Gangfeng, Tianji masters with the strength of Tianji masters are very rare in the Dali Dynasty.
His opinions and views can be directly conveyed to Emperor Bawu and influence the decision-making of high-level officials in the imperial court.
No matter from any aspect, Lu Gangfeng’s status is far above Zhenjun Hengdao and the others.
Lu Gangfeng can give orders to Zhenjun Hengdao and the others without any orders from the court.
However, Lu Gangfeng did not give condescending orders based on his status, nor did he act in any arrogant manner. Instead, he got along with Zhenjun Wen Dong and the others very peacefully.
