Chapter 293: Dark hand

Upon hearing Meng Zhang's loud shout, the disciple who was piloting the flying boat immediately stopped it in mid-air. At this moment, Meng Zhang's sense of panic had slightly subsided. He tried to control his state and forced himself to calm down. He knew all too well that this feeling was a unique ability possessed by Diviners, a sudden sense of impending crisis that signaled a potentially fatal disaster was about to strike. This time, the feeling was even stronger than before, which meant that the crisis he was facing would be even more difficult to overcome.

Meng Zhang reminded Yang Xueyi and Wen Qiansun to be careful and stay alert to their surroundings. He slowly calmed down and began to think about why he was in danger. He was on his way to the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate, and no one had attacked him on the way. According to his guess, the crisis was most likely waiting for him at the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate.

Could it be that something had gone wrong with the joint operation to besiege the Forest Spring Watch this time? This shouldn't be the case. The operation had been planned for so long, and all parties had made sure that there were no loopholes. After all the forces had gathered at the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate, Taiyi Sect and other forces would immediately launch a surprise attack on the people of the Forest Spring Watch and the Forest Mountain School. The combined strength of the several forces far exceeded that of the Forest Spring Watch and the Forest Mountain School, not to mention that Taiyi Sect had prepared some hidden moves.

After Qiaoshou Sect and Taiyi Sect took over the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate, they voluntarily gave it to the Forest Spring Watch not long after. After taking over the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate, the Forest Spring Watch still used the great formation that had been set up by the Golden Blade Sect. This great formation had been almost perfectly arranged after hundreds of years of operation by the Golden Blade Sect. If the Forest Spring Watch wanted to set up a new great formation, it would require a lot of manpower and resources.

Thinking that they had complete control over the great formation, which was aided by the control center and the formation disk, the Forest Spring Watch continued to use it with confidence. However, they had no idea that when Taiyi Sect took control of the great formation, the Geomancer Deep EarthSpirit General, who was proficient in formation, and Wen Qiansun, who had extraordinary formation talent, secretly set up several loopholes in the great formation. With the experienced Deep EarthSpirit General's seamless work, the weak Formation Masters of the Forest Spring Watch could not detect these loopholes. When it was time to strike, Wen Qiansun could use these loopholes to take control of the great formation with his formation talent.

With the power of the great formation, the people of the Forest Spring Watch had no chance of winning. When Meng Zhang set up these hidden moves, he was just a little dissatisfied that the Forest Spring Watch had not contributed anything but still wanted to take most of the benefits of the Golden Blade Sect. He didn't think too much about it and just instinctively set up an ambush for them. Later, when he had to join the Flying Swan Sect and start plotting against the Forest Spring Watch, this hidden move that he had left behind inadvertently became a brilliant move.

After the communication flying sword is sent out, Meng Zhang doesn't completely relax. If Aunt Jin and the others have already entered the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate, then everything will be irretrievable. Only Taiyi Sect will be left outside, unable to make a difference. After a while, a First Rank flying boat with the Qiaoshou Sect emblem approaches from a distance. Seeing the Qiaoshou Sect's flying boat, Meng Zhang feels slightly relieved.

Shortly after, the Qiaoshou Sect's flying boat stops next to the Taiyi Sect's flying boat, and Aunt Jin, accompanied by Jin Qigu and a male cultivator, flies in front of Meng Zhang. This male cultivator is named Jin Wengbo, the most outstanding male cultivator in the Qiaoshou Sect.

In the Qiaoshou Sect, female cultivators have always held the upper hand. Not only are most of the high-ranking members female cultivators, but there is also Aunt Jin, a mid-stage Foundation Building female powerhouse. Male cultivators in the Qiaoshou Sect have never been prominent and have had relatively low status.

However, Jin Wengbo is an exception. As a male cultivator, he is not suitable for practicing the Qiaoshou Sect's most profound techniques. But he had a fortuitous encounter outside and not only reached the early stage of Foundation Building but also cultivated impressive abilities. Jin Wengbo rarely appears in the Qiaoshou Sect. He is a hidden card of Aunt Jin. If it weren't for the significant importance of the operation against the Forest Spring Watch, Aunt Jin would not easily expose him.

When Aunt Jin's flying boat received Meng Zhang's communication flying sword, it had already flown to the foot of the Golden Blade Sect's mountain gate, ready to enter. After reading Meng Zhang's message, out of trust in him, she immediately ordered a turnaround and followed the guidance of the communication flying sword to fly to Meng Zhang's location.
