Aunt Jin, despite her usual trust in ng Zhang, ca here and gave up on the operation. However, she had strong doubts in her heart. This operation was of great importance, and Aunt Jin's unusual behavior just now, once discovered by the Forest Spring Watch, could arouse suspicion and expose the plan. If ng Zhang couldn't give her a satisfactory explanation, she would not spare him.
ng Zhang stood alone at the bow of the flying boat, waiting for Aunt Jin to arrive. Seeing Aunt Jin flying towards him with a fierce montum, he said, "Sothing's not right. I suspect there's sothing wrong inside the Golden Blade Sect's gate. There may be unexpected situations in our operation this ti."
After hearing ng Zhang's words, Aunt Jin stopped her movents and her face beca very ugly. "Sect Master ng, have you found anything wrong?" Jin Qigu, who flew behind Aunt Jin, asked anxiously.
ng Zhang shook his head. "I haven't found any problems, but my intuition tells that there is a great risk hidden within the Golden Blade Sect's gate."
Of course, ng Zhang did not want to reveal that he was a Diviner. This was one of his most important cards, and even the elders inside the gate did not know about it, so how could he tell outsiders?
"Intuition is not sothing a man should rely on. What are you talking about?" Jin Wengbo mocked, even before Aunt Jin and Jin Qigu had a chance to speak.
"Sect Master ng, are you afraid, so you're making up excuses to avoid the battle?" Jin Wengbo continued.
Jin Qigu looked a little unhappy and glanced at Jin Wengbo. ng Zhang had saved her life, and now the two sides were still allies with close relations. There was no need to offend people for no reason.
Aunt Jin remained silent. Although she was also dissatisfied with ng Zhang's statent, she did not rashly deny it.
Aunt Jin was the oldest and had been in the Cultivation World for the longest ti, so she was very knowledgeable. She rembered hearing soone say that Cultivators had a mysterious connection with this world. So Cultivators with special talents and keen senses were favored by the world and had amazing intuition, which could help them avoid many dangers.
Although Aunt Jin did not know that ng Zhang had a top-grade spiritual root, nor that he was a Diviner, from his performance over the years, he was indeed an extraordinary Cultivator.
If ng Zhang was also like those legendary Cultivators, with amazing intuition, then his intuition could not be easily ignored.
Aunt Jin fell into deep thought.
ng Zhang ignored Jin Wengbo. The situation was urgent, and it was not the ti to argue with him. There was no ti to waste on aningless argunts.
"Senior, the forces participating in this operation, besides you and , are Gu Tanghai and Green Bamboo Mountain. How did Fei Hongzi persuade Gu Tanghai to join?" ng Zhang felt that there would be great risks in this operation, and there were only two possibilities. One possibility was that the Forest Spring Watch had obtained powerful secret reinforcents that could overwhelm ng Zhang and the others. The other possibility was that there was a problem on their side, which led to the leakage of information and alerted the Forest Spring Watch.
If the Forest Spring Watch had made preparations and firmly controlled the mountain protection great formation, they could use the power of the great formation to win with less and weaker forces. ng Zhang had experienced such battles before. When Taiyi Sect and other sects fought against Liu Family and Green Bamboo Mountain, they used the protection great formation of Singing Sand City to trap the enemy in the formation and achieve a complete victory.
Although Wen Qiansun knew so loopholes in the Golden Blade Sect's mountain protection great formation, it could only work when the Forest Spring Watch was unprepared.
ng Zhang could not guess whether the Forest Spring Watch had received reinforcents. His first priority was to eliminate internal problems on their side.
Thinking of the hundreds of years of enmity between the Shi Family and the Flying Swan Sect, ng Zhang's first suspect was Gu Tanghai of the Shi Family.
"What thod did Fei Hongzi use to persuade Gu Tanghai? I really don't know," Aunt Jin said.
"But Gu Tanghai should be trustworthy. He and Fei Hongzi made a ghost oath together, and he doesn't have the courage to violate the oath."
"A ghost oath." ng Zhang seized on this key point and had a sudden inspiration.
"Senior, did Azure Bamboo of Green Bamboo Mountain make a ghost oath?"
"What is the relationship between Green Bamboo Mountain and Flying Swan Sect? It can almost be regarded as a branch of Flying Swan Sect. For hundreds of years, Green Bamboo Mountain has been submissive to Flying Swan Sect and obedient to their commands. They don't need a ghost oath to restrain them."
Aunt Jin first laughed dumbly, then her voice beca a little unnatural. She and ng Zhang thought of a place.
Because Qiaoshou Sect had so unknown connection with the Flying Swan Sect, Fei Hongzi could trust Aunt Jin without making a ghost oath. ng Zhang and Gu Tanghai were outsiders, so a ghost oath was needed to ensure their obedience.
As for Green Bamboo Mountain, Fei Hongzi simply treated them as trusted subordinates. It was natural to order them around, and there was no need for a ghost oath.
Gu Tanghai was not a reckless person and would not easily violate the ghost oath. Aunt Jin stood in front of ng Zhang. The only suspect left for ng Zhang was Green Bamboo Mountain.
"Green Bamboo Mountain originated from the Flying Swan Sect and has been loyal to the Flying Swan Sect for hundreds of years. There should be no problem, right?" Aunt Jin said uncertainly.
In the Cultivation World, loyalty was the most unreliable thing. ng Zhang never believed in such nonsense as eternal loyalty and lifelong obedience.
Green Bamboo Mountain was loyal to the Flying Swan Sect because it was in their best interest, and the cost of betrayal was too high. If there were enough benefits to tempt them, it was hard to say whether Green Bamboo Mountain would still be so loyal to the Flying Swan Sect.
Although it was not yet certain, with a clear suspect in mind, ng Zhang gradually cald down.
"Anyway, we don't need to rush. Let's wait here and see what happens," ng Zhang said.
Since Aunt Jin chose to co here to et ng Zhang instead of flying directly into the Golden Blade Sect's gate, she had to continue to trust ng Zhang. Although Jin Wengbo had so objections, his words could not change ng Zhang and Aunt Jin's decision.
The two flying boats hovered in the air, waiting quietly.
ng Zhang returned to the cabin, trying to calm his mind and concentrate, attempting to maintain a calm and composed state of mind to use the Tianji technique for calculations. Although ng Zhang had excellent aptitude and his cultivation base progressed rapidly, he was still young and lacked experience in cultivating his qi.
The cultivation of one's qi was not related to aptitude and required a long ti to accumulate and exercise. When ng Zhang could remain calm in the face of a major crisis, then he would have achieved a certain level of cultivation.
A heart as clear as ice and as calm as a mountain was the realm he pursued.
