Chapter 680: Laying an ambush

Cleanse those big families and their loyal followers. Absorb those who surrender and control them in various ways. Take control of the vast resources in Maple Leaf Mountain City and manage the territory more efficiently...

The Foundation Building stage cultivators of Taiyi Sect have handled this complex series of tasks in an orderly manner. The current Taiyi Sect not only has numerous cultivators but also possesses talents in various fields, proficient in all kinds of affairs.

Meng Zhang handed over the task of controlling Maple Leaf Mountain City to a group of Foundation Building stage cultivators from his sect. As for the Gold Core Daoist Masters, they can be freed up for other purposes.

Taiyi Sect's power on the side of Maple Leaf Mountain City already holds overwhelming dominance. However, Meng Zhang has not violated his promise to kick Xu Mengying out of the picture. Firstly, he made a solemn oath and does not want to break it easily. Secondly, Xu Mengying still holds some utility, and it's not the time to turn against her.

Now that Meng Zhang has gained benefits and obtained the foundation of Maple Leaf Mountain City, he should fulfill the other favor promised to Xu Mengying. She merely asked Meng Zhang to help detain the group from Daoist Master Mountain Garden. But now, Meng Zhang has more ambitious plans in mind.

Of course, whether this plan can be realized depends on Xu Mengying's cooperation. Meng Zhang tells Xu Mengying that he intends to use his power to ambush Daoist Master Mountain Garden and their group. The ambush is not meant to harm the enemies but to trap them. As long as they are firmly held, Xu Mengying will have the freedom to act and no longer be bothered by them.

The clever Xu Mengying knows that Meng Zhang's words may not be entirely true, but she indeed has important matters to attend to and cannot let Daoist Master Mountain Garden's group follow her indefinitely. After discussing, they formulate a rough plan.

In reality, due to the delay when Daoist Master Mountain Garden's group broke through the blockade, it allowed Meng Zhang's group to smoothly control Maple Leaf Mountain City and have enough time to design their plans.

This fortunate turn of events seems like heaven-sent assistance for Meng Zhang.

A few days later, Daoist Master Mountain Garden's group arrives flying on a Third Rank flying ship from the west. They used a secret technique to sense the whereabouts of Xu Mengying's personal item. Despite the distance and the delay, they still successfully found Xu Mengying's trail and followed her all the way.

Standing at the bow of the flying ship, Daoist Master Mountain Garden's face doesn't look good. After the last time the Third Rank flying ship was damaged by Meng Zhang, it underwent emergency repairs, and its outer appearance seemed restored. However, there were still many damages inside, hindering its speed from reaching its full potential.

Helping Xu Mengying wholeheartedly is indeed troublesome for Meng Zhang.

Up until now, Daoist Master Mountain Garden has unexpectedly not found a good solution to the problem. Unfortunately, Daoist Master Smiling Lotus, that guy, unexpectedly retreated at the critical moment and left the group on his own.

While passing through the blockade, Daoist Master Smiling Lotus claimed to cooperate with local cultivators in pursuing Demonize cultivators and volunteered to stay behind. Daoist Master Mountain Garden, of course, knows that Daoist Master Smiling Lotus just didn't want to personally take part in capturing Xu Mengying and was dissatisfied with him.

Because they were worried about Xu Mengying escaping again and believed they had an absolute advantage, Daoist Master Mountain Garden didn't hesitate and directly ordered the ship to swoop down.

Seven Gold Core Daoist Masters stood outside the flying ship's deck, ready to attack at any moment.

The massive body of the Third Rank flying ship was like a small mountain, pressing down towards Meng Zhang and Xu Mengying below.

As soon as the flying ship appeared, Meng Zhang and Xu Mengying realized something was wrong. They quickly flew upwards, trying to escape. However, the flying ship charged directly at them, blocking their path of escape.

It was clear that they didn't want to engage in a head-on confrontation with the enemy. Instead, they rapidly descended, obviously planning to escape from the ground.

The flying ship accelerated its descent, almost catching up to them. The seven Gold Core Daoist Masters on the ship's deck were eager to make a move.

Suddenly, a loud noise echoed through the entire valley.

A golden giant net descended from the sky, directly targeting the descending Third Rank flying ship.

At the same time, a dense yellow light shield rose from the ground, also heading towards the flying ship.

Xu Mengying and Meng Zhang easily penetrated the yellow light shield, allowing it to hit the enemy's ship.

Unable to evade the sudden impact, the flying ship collided heavily with the light shield, producing a loud sound.

Due to the unexpected blow, the flying ship came to a momentary halt, and the descending golden giant net firmly enveloped it.
