Meng Zhang withdrew his spiritual incarnation and did not immediately go to communicate with the Hailing Sect, but fell into deep thought.
The ones who suffered the most this time were the many cultivation forces of the South China Sea Alliance led by the Hai Ling Sect.
The major Holy Land sects have reached an agreement with the True Dragon Clan, and it seems that Tiangong has no objections. This matter is irreversible.
Even if the cultivation forces of the South China Sea Alliance are very dissatisfied, they can only silently accept this path.
Relying on the strength of the South China Sea Alliance alone, it would be difficult to even resist the Sea Clan army, let alone face the True Dragon Clan.
Although the Taiyi Sect is an ally of the Hailing Sect and has been actively providing help to the Hailing Sect, it cannot help much in this matter.
Whether it is Taiyi Sect or Meng Zhang, they are also unable to compete with the True Dragon Clan.
Meng Zhang sighed, being weak is the original sin.
Since the South China Sea Alliance lacks its own strength, it can only be sacrificed.
Meng Zhang couldn’t even imagine how he would deal with such a thing if it happened to Taiyi Sect.
Meng Zhang thought about his next words in his mind, and then flew directly in front of several void-returning experts from the Hailing Sect.
The several powerful masters of returning to the void, headed by the leader, Taoist Haiyang, did not dare to let down their guard at all during these days.
Not only do they have to confront the strong ones from the Sea Clan, but they also have to pay attention to the movements of the strong ones from the True Dragon Clan.
If Meng Zhang hadn’t come over to share their pressure, they might not have been able to hold on long ago.
After meeting, Meng Zhang directly told Taoist Haiyang and the others the news he had just received without any further ado.
Meng Zhang did not mention his source of information, let alone his meeting with King Ganglong.
He just told the other party that the major Holy Land sects had negotiated peace with the True Dragon Clan and had sacrificed the South China Sea Alliance.
Before Meng Zhang finished speaking, several of the Void Returning Masters had expressions of shock on their faces.
None of them thought that one day they would be sacrificed by the Holy Land Sect.
After listening to Meng Zhang’s story, everyone was filled with inexplicable grief and anger, and those with a more grumpy temper were about to explode immediately.
Taoist Haiyang has been the head of Hailing Sect for many years and has experienced many storms.
Although he was extremely shocked, he still maintained a minimum of composure.
Among the Void Returning Powers present, Taoist Haiyang is not the most senior, there are also his elders among them.
But his prestige is extremely high, and everyone believes in him. On major matters related to the future of the sect, everyone is still willing to listen to his opinion.
Taoist Haiyang stopped others from venting their dissatisfaction, but tried to maintain calm, and asked Meng Zhang whether the matter was final and whether there was still room for redemption.
Meng Zhang hesitated for a moment and told Taoist Haiyang with great regret that this matter should not be changed.
With the abilities of him and Taiyimen, there is nothing they can do.
Of course, Meng Zhang also admitted that what he learned was only preliminary information. It may take some time to know the specific details.
He will contact Tiangong as soon as possible to make final confirmation on the matter.
Taoist Haiyang thanked Meng Zhang for reporting the letter in time, and repeatedly asked about the sacrificed interests of the South China Sea Alliance.
When the two of them finished their conversation and Meng Zhang said goodbye and left, Taoist Haiyang could no longer maintain his original composure, his face changed drastically, and his expression was full of grief and indignation.
Without the presence of an outsider like Meng Zhang, several of the Hailing Sect’s Void Returning Masters immediately started talking at random.
Some people don’t quite believe Meng Zhang’s words and want to confirm through other channels.
Some were aggrieved and extremely unwilling, saying that they would fight to the death with the invading Hai Clan army. Even if he died on the spot, he would not give up the sect’s territory in vain.
Some even expressed that they want Meng Zhang to continue to provide help to help them defend the South China Sea.
……
After a huge change in Taoist Haiyang’s mood, he quickly calmed down.
He is far more sober than others and knows that what has happened is probably irreversible.
The Hai Ling Sect is alone and unable to change the overall situation.
As for Taiyi Sect, Meng Zhang’s attitude is already obvious.
The Taiyi Sect will not make useless resistance, and the Hailing Sect has no reason to let the Taiyi Sect sacrifice for them in vain.
Even if the Hailing Sect joins forces with the Taiyi Sect, they are still too weak to change the overall situation.
The major holy land sects can kill two birds with one stone this time.
Ceding the territory of the South China Sea Alliance to the Sea Clan not only appeased the True Dragon Clan and temporarily avoided a war with the True Dragon Clan, but also seriously weakened the South China Sea League headed by the Hai Ling Sect.
With such a large territory lost and so many resource points on the territory falling into the hands of the Hai Clan, the South China Sea Alliance headed by the Hai Ling Sect will have a hard time in the future.
The Sea Clan has gained such a large territory and has so many resource points that it can support more powerful people.
As time goes by, the balance of power between the two sides will definitely change.
In the long run, the Hai Ling Sect’s vitality has been severely damaged this time, and its foundation has been shaken.
Taoist Haiyang and the others hate the sects of the major holy lands with great hatred, but there is nothing they can do about them.
The senior leaders of the Hailing Sect can no longer care about long-term matters, they can only take care of the immediate future first.
Taoist Haiyang is a very decisive person. He quickly appeased everyone and made several arrangements.
First, the Hai Ling Sect made full use of various connections, especially contacting Tiangong to see if they could change their decision to cede the South China Sea territory.
Even if we really have to cede the territory in the South China Sea, let’s see if we can bargain and reduce the losses of the Hai Ling Sect as much as possible.
Secondly, the Hai Ling Sect must appease the major cultivation forces in the South China Sea League and let them focus their hatred on the Holy Land Sect, and not let them resent the Hai Ling Sect.
Third, we must secretly contact the Sea Clan and the True Dragon Clan to see if the two parties can reach some agreements and make some mutually beneficial arrangements.
Although the Hai Clan and the Hai Ling Sect have a deep hatred, the ones the Hai Ling Sect hates the most right now should be the major Holy Land sects.
The True Dragon Clan behind the Sea Clan also regards the major holy land sects as their formidable enemies.
The two sides have a common enemy and may not be friends, but they can secretly cooperate and make some exchanges of interests secretly to allow the Hailing Sect to reduce losses as much as possible.
Fourth, if the cession of territory is unavoidable, arrangements must be made as early as possible to avoid all kinds of chaos.
For example, some resource points need to be evaluated whether they should be handed over to the Sea Tribe completely or whether they should be destroyed in advance.
Also, a large area of the sea has been ceded this time, and many of the islands above will also fall into the hands of the Sea Tribe.
The human race that originally lived on these islands must arrange their relocation and move them all into the human race’s territory.
Taoist Haiyang really has the talent of a general and arranges all affairs in an orderly manner.
Even in the worst circumstances, efforts must be made to ensure the interests of the Hai Ling Sect.
He was able to lead the Hailing Sect and Zhenhai Palace, a holy land sect, to fight against each other for many years. He was certainly not an easy person.
On the Hai Clan side, the day after the meeting between King Ganglong and Meng Zhang, they took the initiative to stop the attack, and the army temporarily withdrew to the rear.
This made many human cultivators who did not know the truth cheer for joy. They thought they had defeated the Hai tribe’s invading army and defended the South China Sea by relying on their own strength.
For a while, the morale of the army of human monks stationed here was greatly boosted.
Some people even took the initiative to propose a counterattack against the Hai Clan army. Taking advantage of the victory, they pursued and completely wiped out the Hai Clan army.
Of course, these suggestions were completely ignored by Haiyang Taoist.
What gives Taoist Haiyang a little headache is how he wants to tell everyone the truth and how to appease everyone’s subsequent anger.
After Meng Zhang ended his conversation with Taoist Haiyang and the others, he continued to be alone.
Next, Meng Zhang also has a lot of things to be busy with.
Of course, this temporary truce between the human cultivators and the sea tribe is also a good thing for Meng Zhang and Taiyi Sect, which can save a lot of manpower and material resources.
Although the ally Hai Ling Sect was severely weakened, Taiyi Sect itself was not directly affected.
Meng Zhang contacted the senior officials of Taiyi Sect and asked them to stop further support to Hailing Sect.
The war in the South China Sea is almost over, and there is no need to continue providing support.
The army of monks who had already arrived at the West Sea and were preparing to set off for the South China Sea had no need to move out.
As for the fact that the major Holy Land sects betrayed the interests of the South China Sea Alliance and ceded human territory to the Hai Clan, Meng Zhang told the Taiyi Sect’s senior officials exactly as they were.
Under Meng Zhang’s instruction, Taiyi Sect General made every effort to disseminate relevant information and expose the ugly faces of the major holy land sects.
For thousands of years, human cultivators have been the undisputed rulers of the Junchen world.
When facing other alien races, the human race has always maintained an absolute advantage.
The True Dragon Clan is so powerful that they can only stay on the sea and cannot affect the dominance of the human race.
Over time, human cultivators have developed extremely high moral standards and do not look down on other alien races at all.
After the practices of the major holy land sects spread, it will definitely cause an uproar in the world of cultivation.
Not only will many cultivators criticize it, but it may also trigger a serious wave of opposition within it.
Although this approach cannot shake the dominance of the major holy land sects, it can at least disgust them and make them lose their hearts.
In the world of cultivation, what is emphasized is that strength is supreme, the strong are respected, and the support of people’s hearts does not seem to have much effect.
But when needed, the human heart can still come in handy.
In addition, Meng Zhang also asked the senior officials of Taiyi Sect to work hard to find out the latest trends in Tiangong.
This time the major Holy Land sects negotiated peace with the True Dragon Clan and betrayed the South China Sea Alliance, it was King Ganglong who told him.
Tiangong, which has always had a close relationship with Meng Zhang, did not receive news in time, which made Meng Zhang dissatisfied and a little puzzled.
After explaining these things and making various arrangements, Meng Zhang did not rush to leave the South China Sea, but stayed here temporarily.
Although the war between the South China Sea Alliance and the Hai Clan army is almost over, Meng Zhang still needs to continue to stay in command for a while in order to prevent any accidents from happening.
Next, not only did the Hai Clan army cease its activities and did not continue to attack, even the strong men of the True Dragon Clan did not come to fight with Meng Zhang, which made Meng Zhang feel quite at peace.
Ren Haiyang did not directly disclose the matter of ceding the territory to the public. Instead, he called together the principals of various cultivation forces in the South China Sea Alliance to ventilate their opinions first.
Needless to say, this caused another small-scale chaos, and the situation became chaotic for a while.
As the leader of the South China Sea Alliance, the Hai Ling Sect ranks first in terms of prestige and strength. It has enough ability to temporarily suppress some internal problems.
Taoist Haiyang is a very skillful person and can comfort everyone very well.
About ten days later, two of Meng Zhang’s old acquaintances came to Nanhai after traveling thousands of miles.
Last time Meng Zhang asked Supreme Heavenly Thunder for help, hoping that Supreme Heavenly Thunder would help him fight against the major sects in the Holy Land, Supreme Heavenly Thunder did not agree and stayed out of the matter.
Meng Zhang was originally a peripheral subordinate of Supreme Lord Tianlei. After this incident, the two sides ended their relationship.
Old man Yinhu, who was the first to recommend Meng Zhang to Master Tianlei and had always hoped that Meng Zhang would join the service of Master Tianlei, was also greatly disappointed by this matter and felt a little sorry for Meng Zhang.
I don’t know if he felt ashamed of his relationship with Meng Zhang, but the old man Yinhu and Meng Zhang had no contact with each other since then.
Grandma Liansi was originally a casual cultivator, but later, under the secret cultivation of the Immortal Society, she advanced to the stage of returning to the void.
As a member of the Immortal Society, she had a lucky escape last time and escaped from the pursuit of the Holy Land Sect.
After that, she hid for a period of time, and did not dare to come out again until the Taoist priest from the ancient capital returned to Junchen Realm.
Under the operation of the Taoist priests in the ancient capital, Granny Liansi obtained a good position in the Tiangong.
After Old Man Yinhu and Granny Liansi came to Nanhai, they did not go to see the people from the Hailing Sect first, but came to pay homage to Meng Zhang first.
Both of them are old acquaintances of Meng Zhang. They helped Meng Zhang a lot and cultivated him back then.
Even though today is different from the past, Meng Zhang did not put on any airs in front of them and received them very warmly.
On the other hand, Old Man Yinhu and Granny Liansi became somewhat restrained in front of Meng Zhang.
When Meng Zhang met them, he was still an ordinary young monk. At best, he had good talent and looked very promising.
And today’s Meng Zhang is already the Supreme Master in the late stage of returning to the void.
The elder Yinhu who admires the most and has always been loyal to Lord Tianlei has only this level of cultivation.
Furthermore, if Old Man Yinhu remembered correctly, Lord Tianlei was much older than Meng Zhang when he advanced to the late stage of returning to the void.
Meng Zhang is so young and has such a level of cultivation, he has a great chance of becoming an immortal and attaining Taoism in the future.
In terms of cultivation alone, Meng Zhang is already on an equal footing with Lord Tianlei.
Grandma Liansi felt the same shock deep in her heart as Old Man Yinhu.
Shangzun Guchen, who had been cultivating her and introducing her to the Immortal Society, was only at the same level as Meng Zhang at this time.
Meng Zhang’s past achievements are no secret.
Fighting many void-returning powers and killing the void-returning powers of the Holy Land sects are things that Granny Liansi and Old Man Yinhu cannot even imagine.
Although Tiangong and the major holy land sects have not directly intervened in the war in the South China Sea this time, they have been paying attention to it through various channels.
Meng Zhang’s ability to defeat a strong man like Ganglong King really exceeded many people’s expectations.
Grandma Liansi and Old Man Yinhu came to pay homage to Meng Zhang this time. They kept their attitude very upright and their posture very low, just like a subordinate meeting a superior, a weak person meeting a strong person.
