Chapter 3174 Compromise
Author: Shushan Swordsman
Speaking of which, the great scholar Xu Deyi was quite unlucky.
He was practicing well in the academy, but he was caught and sent to such a remote place to spy on the Gray Earth Demon.
He was completely unwilling to do this kind of drudgery.
He was dissatisfied, but he couldn't refuse, and he still had to work hard to get the job done.
In order to ensure that his whereabouts were hidden and to save trouble, he did not stay near the Gray Earth Demon all the time and kept close surveillance on him.
Anyway, he can sense the deepest void of the Gray Earth Demon Soul through secret methods, thereby knowing its status and changes.
Therefore, he intentionally or unintentionally stayed away from the Four-Pointed Star Region where the Gray Earth Demon was born.
During this period, he also traveled to a distant place to deal with a private matter and was delayed for a long time.
The Gray Earth Demon was hunted down and was suppressed and converted by the Bodhisattva of the Lotus Sect. He missed all these things.
Fortunately, the Gray Earth Demon was not completely transformed by the Bodhisattva of the Lotus Sect because of the deepest mystery of the demon soul.
Later, by chance, he got rid of the other party's control and escaped all the way.
Afterwards, the great scholar Xu Deyi was shocked.
Although due to various restrictions, he cannot directly contact the Gray Earth Demon. Unless it is absolutely necessary, he must not show up.
But he no longer dared to stay too far away from each other.
He has been patrolling a place not too far from the Gray Earth Demon, closely monitoring everything about it.
In the meantime, he also saw the demonization and devouring of the indigenous cultivators in the Four-Pointed Star Area by the Gray Earth Demon, but pretended not to know and had no intention of intervening.
After the Moon God traced all the way here, almost completely killed the Gray Earth Demon, and discovered the mystery in the deepest part of his demonic soul, he had no choice but to show up and take away the hidden things in the deepest part of his demonic soul.
Unfortunately, he was only focused on monitoring the battle between the Gray Earth Demon and the Moon God, and did not notice Meng Zhang's existence.
Now, he has been entangled by Meng Zhang and Moon God, and cannot easily get rid of them.
After the truce between the two sides, Meng Zhang seemed polite, but there was no hint of threat in his words.
He even uttered wild words that he wanted to capture him, send him back to Spring and Autumn Academy, and hand him over to the higher-ups of the academy.
Although Xu Deyi felt that Meng Zhang had not conquered his own strength and was just deceiving others. But once this happened, it would be a direct slap in the face of Spring and Autumn Academy.
For Taoist immortals like Meng Zhang, they would definitely like to see Confucian leaders make a fool of themselves.
Xu Deyi had already tried it before, and it would be very difficult for him to escape just like that.
Meng Zhang and Yueshen joined forces to not only capture him, but also to pester him so that he could not escape.
The big shot behind him had already told him that everything about the Gray Earth Demon must be kept strictly confidential and no one could contact the Spring and Autumn Academy.
Although Meng Zhang seemed aggressive, spoke righteously, and insisted on holding on to this matter.
But the great scholar Xu Deyi knew the virtues of cultivators.
Even if you become an immortal, you still can't change your habit of not being able to do anything early.
Meng Zhang held on to him not because he really wanted to uphold justice or to bring down Spring and Autumn Academy, but because he wanted to gain benefits.
If it were normal times, he would definitely not accept Meng Zhang's blackmail.
But now, with no other option, he was willing to pay some price to keep Meng Zhang secret and end the matter as soon as possible.
Although Xu Deyi had made up his mind to bleed, he did not show it easily, but slowly tested Meng Zhang.
He didn't want to whet Meng Zhang's appetite and pay a price he couldn't bear.
A monk like Meng Zhang who came from a grassroots background and grew up from the bottom, even if he is an immortal, can still ignore his face and lower his status when needed.
He put on the face of a greedy scoundrel, and the lion opened his mouth, proposing many conditions that the other party would definitely not agree to.
Meng Zhang demanded a lot of money, and Xu Deyi would definitely pay back the money on the spot.
In his heart, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Since Meng Zhang is willing to negotiate and make an offer, then this matter may be resolved peacefully.
As long as we can suppress this matter and ensure that the news is not leaked, then anything can be said.
The actions of the great scholar Xu Deyi this time had to be hidden from the top management of Spring and Autumn Academy, and they were not visible to anyone at all.
If it were any other situation, he would have summoned his fellow disciples in the academy to come and surround Meng Zhang.
He originally had a comrade he could trust, but for a while, it was difficult to find him, let alone summon him here.
After some haggling, Xu Deyi found that he still underestimated the other party.
Meng Zhang is simply greedy and has an astonishing appetite.
Even if he emptied his fortune, he still couldn't meet one percent of Meng Zhang's demands.
Xu Deyi forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and continued to negotiate with Meng Zhang.
Unconsciously, his tone and posture had lowered, and he lacked the arrogance that a disciple of Spring and Autumn Academy should have.
Seeing that the heat was almost over, Meng Zhangcai gave up the conditions he had used as a cover up and put forward his real request.
He told Xu Deyi that he had many enemies at the level of gods.
These enemies have been trying every possible means to hunt him down and pursue him relentlessly, causing him a lot of trouble.
He hopes to find an opportunity to trap all these enemies.
He does not seek to completely eliminate these enemies, but only seeks to make them suffer a little and kill enough of their time.
This place is still a long way from the Taiyi Realm. Previously, all Xu Deyi's thoughts were focused on monitoring the Gray Earth Demon.
Therefore, he did not know that Taiyi Realm was being pursued by many powerful forces, and he did not know that Taiyi Realm was already in a very dangerous situation.
Xu Deyi's own strength alone cannot help Meng Zhang at all.
He might not even be able to fight Meng Zhang, so how could he trap so many enemies who left Meng Zhang helpless?
As a monk from the Jinxian Sect, his advantages are reflected at this time.
Xu Deyi could totally find an excuse, pay some price, and ask for help from his fellow disciples.
Xu Deyi asked Meng Zhang about the situation of these enemies.
A group of star thieves were originally the targets of the Spring and Autumn Academy.
Buddhist sects like Fahua Sect do not have a good relationship with Confucianism.
The Heavenly Wolf Sword Sect belongs to the Taoist sect, and the swordsmen in the sect always hate ghosts and gods.
…
As long as there are no sects related to the Spring and Autumn Academy, Xu Deyi can take action without any pressure.
Although there were certainly some inaccuracies in Meng Zhang's words, Xu Deyi was willing to make huge concessions in order to settle the matter as soon as possible.
It didn't take long for both parties to reach an agreement.
Meng Zhang and Xu Deyi solemnly swore in front of Void Heaven that they would definitely abide by the agreement.
According to the agreement, Xu Deyi will find enough helpers as soon as possible.
Meng Zhang will lure those old opponents to one place, and then Xu Deyi and the others will take action to trap them all.
Xu Deyi promised that as long as no monks from the Jinxian Sect intervened, he could trap those guys for more than three years.
Thanks to my old friend Zhenzhang for his many rewards and support.
