Chapter 1220: Cooperation
Cultivators from various sects and clans from various domains began to enter the Moonlit Passion Temple; the majority of them were those who had previously attended the opening ceremony of the new sect.
Zhang Fei [5] left everything to Qing Qiu’er and the others, and he went to meet the six special guests. He brought the six special guests to the back of the mountain. "Are these two your higher-ups, Sect Master Nong?"
"Yes." Nong Qinwei pointed at the two people. "Dongfang Yuechan is my master and Yin Chang, and Senior Lan Xuening is her senior sister. At first, I was going to come here with our two disciples, but they wanted to meet you personally."
"I see." Zhang Fei [5] nodded in understanding before asking them. "What do you want to know from me, two seniors?"
"Naturally, we want to know the reasons behind your offer of cooperation, and we also want to know your abilities as an assassin." Lan Xuening was the first to answer.
Dongfang Yuechan returned the question. "What is your real purpose in establishing your assassination group?"
"Senior Yuechan, I never founded my group, and one of my wives was the founder." Zhang Fei [5] told them the reason Liu Hua founded the organization, which surprised them. "Our group has grown far now, and our number reaches thousands, consisting of humans, demons, beast races, and natural races."
"Do your members really come from all races?" Both of them asked in surprise.
"Let me summon some of them." They were shocked when Zhang Fei [5] opened the portal to the training space, and four women walked out from inside. "Hua’er is the founder, and she still holds our leadership. Elmyra is an elf race and one of our best healers. Feng Yichen is a Dark Phoenix. Ju Yingzhi is an Abyssal Rift Demon. There are many more of our members, but I won’t summon them all now. If you two agree to cooperate with us, I will introduce you to them."
Lan Xuening and the others observed the four women seriously, but they felt that their cultivation was too low, and only Feng Yichen had broken through to the Fifth Celestial Realm.
Zhang Fei [5] smiled faintly. "They’re weaker than you, but don’t underestimate their abilities. If you don’t believe me, your two disciples can spar with them right here and now without any cultivation."
"Try them." Yin Chang spoke to Jiang Qingmei and Tan Ziyan.
Liu Hua and Elmyra wanted to step forward, but Zhang Fei [5] stopped them; instead, he asked Feng Yichen and Ju Yingzhi to spar with Jiang Qingmei and Tan Ziyan. "Show your abilities to them."
Feng Yichen said nothing and attacked Jiang Qingei directly, while Ju Yingzhi moved to engage Tan Ziyan. Quickly, the four women engaged in a fierce battle, relying not on cultivation but on their skills.
Dongfang Yuchen and the other three were truly shocked by the speed of Feng Yichen and Ju Yingzhi, as they could keep up with Jiang Qingmei and Tan Ziyan despite their vast difference in cultivation and experience.
What shocked them the most was Ju Yingzhi’s abilities because Tan Ziyan couldn’t touch her at all, and the female demon toyed around with their female disciple using her dimensional abilities.
"Yingzhi, don’t hold back."
After Zhang Fei said that, Ju Yingzhi immediately locked Tan Ziyan up using her dimensional prison. She then moved beside Feng Yichen and imprisoned Jiang Qingmei, and the two disciples could not free themselves from her prison.
Thereafter, Ju Yingzhi moved to Zhang Fei’s side and imprisoned their guests. "Your cultivation is superior to mine, but none of you will ever be able to escape from my prison. If you don’t believe me, you can try."
"Hmm?" Dongfang Yuchen and the other three immediately used their last bit of strength to destroy Ju Yingzhi’s dimensional prison, but their attacks were instantly thrown to another dimension. They decided to use half of their strength, yet they still could not break it.
"As I told you before, Ju Yingzhi is an Abyssal Rift Demon. As long as you don’t have the void element, you will never be able to escape from her." They looked at the female demon in shock, and Zhang Fei [5] spoke to them again. "Feng Yichen’s abilities are not as good as hers, but she is a dark phoenix, and her dark flames can incinerate almost everything, including our souls. If she used her flames, Jiang Qingmei would have been dead from the first second."
Ju Yingzhi then freed the six women from her dimensional prison, and she casually stood behind Zhang Fei [5], leaving them speechless.
"Actually, our group can operate independently based on the number and capabilities of our members; however, Yunxiao informed me about your sect, and I want to avoid any issues among our members. Therefore, I offer you to cooperate with us, and our two groups can move side by side in carrying out the assassination missions." Zhang Fei [5] then summoned Tian Kui and Serpentera to come, and the presence of the two ancient beasts shocked them again. "They are the guardians of this sect, and you must have realized their strength by now."
Dongfang Yuechan nodded to him. "I didn’t expect you to have two powerful protectors with cultivation at the 3-Sun Celestial Venerable Realms."
"Do you still have other guardians?" Lan Xuening asked.
"Yes." Nong Qinwei and Yun Chang gasped in shock as soon as Xie Heilong and the seven evil mythical beasts appeared in front of them on Zhang Fei [5]’s orders. "You definitely recognize them, right, Sect Master Nong and Vice Sect Master Yin?"
Both women nodded to Zhang Fei [5]. "Did you enslave them?"
"No." Zhang Fei [5] denied Nong Qinwei with a headshake. "I didn’t enslave them directly because that would be too risky, and I used other methods to make them obey me. This way, I’m sure no sect or clan has such powerful guardians as our sect."
"What is your aim in doing this to them?" Dongfang Yuechan asked.
"I have some problems with the evil beast races, especially Taotie. They are their main generals, so I will use them to infiltrate there." They were curious about it, but Zhang Fei [5] didn’t want to tell them the truth. "If their abilities aren’t satisfactory to you all, you guys can try mine."
Dongfang Yuechan and Lan Xuening exchanged glances for a moment before nodding at Zhang Fei [5]. However, they were shocked when they wanted to move, realizing that something was limiting their movements. "What did you do to us?"
"See that." Zhang Fei [5] pointed to their shadows. "I have shadow abilities, and I restrict you two through your shadows. My abilities don’t require Qi, so you don’t need to be confused if you can’t detect my actions."
"How—" Lan Xuening stopped talking as soon as Zhang Fei [5] activated his sword domain, and hundreds of Qi swords appeared within it, surrounding them. "So, the rumors that you are a god-rank sword master are true, huh?"
Zhang Fei [5] smiled and activated his soul domain, shocking them again. Creating and using one domain was already difficult, but he was able to use two domains simultaneously.
"I am an expert soul cultivator, and this is my soul domain. If I were your enemy, you would have died from the start." Zhang Fei [5] canceled his two domains. "So, what’s your decision? Are you willing to accept my offer of cooperation? Besides my two abilities just now, you already know that I am a god-rank alchemist, and you have also used my pills. Therefore, you should know that accepting my offer will benefit all of you, right?"
They nodded at him, and Dongfang Yuechan immediately made a decision. "Alright, we’ll accept your offer. Our two groups will start working together today, but we still need to discuss some matters regarding the future."
"That’s true." Zhang Fei [5] turned to Liu Hua. "Hua’er, I’m not interested in this matter, and you are the leader of our demon fox group, so you will be the one to discuss the matters with them."
Liu Hua nodded at him. "Seniors, let’s go inside first so we can discuss more comfortably."
Dongfang Yuechan and Lan Xuening followed Liu Hua, but Ning Qinwei and Yin Chang did not join them. "Zhang Fei, Jiang Qingmei and Tan Ziyan will be our representatives in this sect, and I hope you are willing to send two of your members to our sect, allowing us to communicate and plan more easily."
"Hmm?" Zhang Fei [5] looked at the two women while thinking about the right members to send to the Hidden Moon Sect. "Let me think about it first, and I’ll send two people to your sect once I’ve selected the right person."
"Alright." Nong Qinwei nodded in agreement.
"Zhang Fei! Let’s spar again!"
All of them turned to Jian Kuang, who was standing in front of the barrier with Zhuxian Sheng. Yin Chang then asked. "Did that sword maniac join you?"
"He hasn’t decided to join me yet, and he’s staying here just to spar with me." Zhang Fei [5] let out a heavy sigh before asking all the beasts to leave, and he sent Feng Yichen and two other women back to the training space. "You two can join them, and I will go to spar with that sword maniac."
"We’ll go with you!" Nong Qinwei and Yin Chang hurriedly followed him, as did the two female disciples.
