Meng Wan nodded emotionally and said, "I do!"

"Very good, then let's pack up and set off in half an hour."

Seeing Meng Wan return to her room, Shen Zihan pulled her brother into the room and asked impatiently.

"Brother, why did you tell her this news?"

Shen Zixuan said calmly, "The news has already leaked out. She went up the mountain with us, so sooner or later she will know the news. It is better to tell her earlier to avoid her becoming suspicious and resentful of us."

Shen Zihan stamped her feet angrily, "Even so... there's no need to tell her the real purpose of our trip up the mountain, right?"

"Don't forget what the relationship between Zhang Wan'er and I is now.

Being honest with each other is the first step to establishing a relationship. Since I have chosen her, I will open my heart to her and experience the various flavors of love. "

Shen Zixuan looked at Shen Zihan without avoiding or flinching, "You said at the beginning that the most important thing for this trip was to find a suitable Taoist partner for me. Could it be that you have forgotten it?"

Shen Zihan bit her lip unwillingly, "I haven't forgotten."

"As long as you haven't forgotten."

Shen Zixuan stopped talking without saying anything. He believed that with his sister's intelligence, she would be able to figure this matter out quickly.

Half an hour later, when the three of them left the yard together, there was no trace of strangeness in Shen Zihan's expression.

The three of them left Hengyue City chatting and laughing, and walked towards the Tianheng Mountains in the distance.

As the saying goes, "A horse will die if it runs too fast." Although Hengyue City is adjacent to the Tianheng Mountains, it is still some distance away from the actual entrance to the mountains for safety reasons.

The three of them traveled for two days and finally arrived at the post station at the entrance of the mountains at dusk on the second day.

"This is the Tianheng Posthouse. Most of the monks who come into the mountains will rest here. Some monks who want to stay together for warmth will also form a team here."

Shen Zixuan lowered his voice and explained to Meng Wan.

"There are also some monks who have gained something in the mountains. They are worried that their supplies will be stolen on the way back to the city, so they will sell their goods here in advance."

Meng Wan nodded and followed Shen Zixuan into the post station.

As soon as the three of them entered, they were immediately targeted.

There is no other reason. These three people have reached the ninth level of Qi Refining at such a young age. It is obvious that they are cultivators from certain forces.

This kind of cultivator with a good background has enjoyed the careful cultivation of his family or sect since childhood.

Whether it is aptitude, skills learned, spiritual weapons, or fighting methods, they are all far superior to those of casual cultivators and are simply not comparable to ordinary casual cultivators.

Therefore, as soon as the three of them entered the post station, people frequently showed their goodwill to them and wanted to invite them into their team.

Shen Zixuan naturally had no intention of joining the team. In his opinion, those independent cultivators were useless except for being a drag.

But Meng Wan pulled his sleeve and blinked at him.

"Brother Zixuan, there is strength in numbers. Why don't we join a powerful team? I'm also afraid that you'll be in danger."

Shen Zixuan felt warm in his heart and agreed.

Shen Zihan was a little unhappy, and questioned Shen Zixuan while Zhang Wan'er went to contact the team.

"Brother, we are looking for the cave of the ancient monks, how can we act together with others?"

Shen Zixuan's face was calm. "After we enter the mountain, we can find a chance to get rid of them. If they can't find us, they won't wait there foolishly."

Shen Zihan couldn't help feeling a little depressed after listening to her brother's explanation.

If I really have a sister-in-law, my sister will become an outsider.

Okay, she would bear with it for now. Zhang Wan'er was just a tool anyway, so why should she be angry with a tool?

Thinking of this, Shen Zihan calmed down and reminded Shen Zixuan.

"When you attack Zhang Wan'er in the future, you must be careful not to kill her. She has good skills in refining weapons, and she can be brought back to help the clan."

Shen Zixuan frowned. For some reason, he felt heartbroken after hearing these words.

But after only half a breath, he suppressed the discomfort in his heart and said, "Okay."

Shen Zihan achieved her goal and said no more.

After a while, Meng Wan came running over breathlessly, with a look of surprise on her face.

"I found a team. Their purpose for entering the mountain is to find the ancient monk's cave. We can act together."

Shen Zixuan stared at Meng Wan tenderly, "It's just a small matter like this, you decide."

Meng Wan felt a little embarrassed being stared at and looked away with a red face.

"The captain said everyone is here, so let's set off now!"

The three of them walked in the other direction of the post station, where a team of seven people was waiting for them.

The team Meng Wan found is indeed very strong.

Among the seven cultivators, except for two who are only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, the other five are at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

However, these people are all independent cultivators. Except for one cultivator who has the secret to maintain his youthful appearance, the rest of them do not look young. They are at least in their forties.

There were also three monks with white hair and chicken skin on their faces, and they were already over 70 years old.

Upon seeing Meng Wan and the other two arrive, an old man at the eighth level of Qi Refining squinted his eyes and looked at the three of them. A hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared and turned into a look of flattery.

"It's true that heroes emerge from youth. The three of you are so young, yet you have such achievements. It really makes me ashamed."

When the others heard this, they all felt a little uncomfortable.

These independent cultivators have been struggling at the bottom of the cultivation world all their lives, risking their lives countless times just to find the possibility of further advancement.

But these disciples from major sects and cultivators from aristocratic families have resources that are beyond their imagination from the moment they are born.

Their lifelong efforts may not even be able to match the other person's starting point.

However, these independent cultivators are all experienced people who have been working in the world of cultivation for decades. No matter how unhappy they feel, they will not show it at this time.

And objectively speaking, with the participation of these monks from aristocratic families, the safety of this trip will be greatly increased.

As soon as the old man finished speaking, another female cultivator who looked like a middle-aged woman immediately took over the conversation.

"Old Qian, what are you talking about? What qualifications do you have? What qualifications do they have? Why are you ashamed?"

Old Man Qian was not angry at all after being squeezed like this. Instead, he smiled and nodded, "Yes, yes, you are right."

After the middle-aged woman's interruption, the atmosphere became noticeably more relaxed.

The middle-aged man who was the team leader laughed a few times, said a few words of welcome, then scratched his head and looked at the three people.

"I don't know your names yet, and what skills you are good at. We have to fight against monsters together after entering the mountain. How about you introduce yourselves first?"

Seeing that no one had any objection, he spoke first.

"Let me go first. My name is Hong Bo, an ordinary guy, and the founder of this team.

I have been wandering in the Tianheng Mountains for many years. I dare not boast about my strength, but I have enough experience in dealing with monsters. "

Following Hong Bo, others also began to introduce themselves, and Meng Wan and the other three were no exception.

After a brief introduction, everyone had a general understanding of their new teammates.
