Chapter 268: Consulting

Watching the cheerful figure of Jin Qiao'er, Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu wore expressions full of doting affection. As for Jin Qiao'er, this lively and adorable young girl, Meng Zhang also had a great fondness for her. He truly hoped that this little girl could maintain her innocent heart forever.

As allies, the Taiyi Sect and the Qiaoshou Sect had interacted frequently over the years, leading to a certain level of understanding between them. Many events within the Qiaoshou Sect had slowly reached Meng Zhang's ears. He had heard about Jin Qiao'er's excellent talent and how her cultivation base progressed by leaps and bounds, especially after the incident where she was ambushed by the demonic beings of the Yellow Lotus Sect. Jin Qiao'er had been working diligently on her cultivation ever since.

It seemed that Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu's affection for Jin Qiao'er was not merely simple doting but a wholehearted effort to nurture her as the future of the Qiaoshou Sect. Furthermore, by casually using the Deception Breaking Eye just now, Meng Zhang couldn't help but notice that the cultivation technique Jin Qiao'er practiced was vastly different from the ones Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu cultivated. It was evidently a highly profound technique.

However, the specifics of this technique remained elusive to Meng Zhang for the time being.N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.B1n.

After Jin Qiao'er left, Meng Zhang refocused his attention. Regardless of whatever secrets Jin Qiao'er might be harboring, they were currently irrelevant to him. One's time and energy were limited, and it was impossible to decipher every mystery encountered.

Meng Zhang respectfully bowed to Aunt Jin. "This junior has come this time to seek guidance from the senior on an important matter."

Being courteous was not a fault, and if one intended to ask for assistance, it was only proper to adopt a humble attitude. Moreover, considering Aunt Jin's seniority and age, Meng Zhang believed this level of etiquette was warranted.

"Sect Master Meng, there's no need to be so formal. Our two sects have a close relationship, and there's nothing you can't ask for my help with. If there's anything you need assistance with, as long as this old woman can be of help, I won't refuse," replied Aunt Jin with a smile.

Recalling the scene, he departed from Qiaoshou Sect with his two young companions, leaving behind Jin Qiao'er's reluctant gaze.

As Meng Zhang gradually disappeared from view, Jin Qigu expressed some concern, asking, "Senior Aunt, isn't it a bit too early to reveal our secrets now?"

"We've been in contact with Taiyi Sect for a long time, but we don't know much about them, let alone trust them," sighed Aunt Jin. "The Endless Sea of Sand is undergoing a major change, and we need to gather allies. At least for now, we can't find a more reliable ally than Taiyi Sect. As for whether Taiyi Sect is trustworthy, we can observe and test them slowly in the future. If we don't do something now, I'm afraid it'll be too late."

Unaware of Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu's conversation, Meng Zhang returned to Taiyi Sect and took some time to adjust. After calming his mind, he began to utilize the Grand Evolving Fortune technique.

His first calculation concerned whether Aunt Jin and the others harbored ill intentions or had deceived him. After spending nearly a hundred calculation tallies, Meng Zhang finally obtained the result: Aunt Jin and the others had no ill intentions and had not deceived him. This reassured him, and he could temporarily stop worrying about Taiyi Sect getting involved in the conflict among Gold Core sects.

Looking at the remaining dozens of calculation tallies, Meng Zhang attempted to deduce Aunt Jin's sources of information. However, he immediately stopped when he realized the immense difficulty and wide-ranging implications of the matter. The current number of calculation tallies was far from enough.

Meng Zhang estimated that he would need thousands of calculation tallies to attempt to deduce the information. Whether he could achieve satisfactory results remained uncertain. As for trying to predict the actions of the Calculated Flying Swan Sect and the other three forces, as Aunt Jin had mentioned, maintaining peace, Meng Zhang didn't even consider attempting it. His proficiency in divination was still insufficient to deal with matters related to Gold Core Daoist Masters. Forcing such calculations could lead to a severe decrease in his lifespan.
