After confirming that this was not an illusion he saw, Bai Luo's eyes suddenly had a strange light.

As if aware of Bai Luo's gaze, the man moved closer to Li Zhuo, completely covering his movements with the loose sleeves.

In front of the public, Li Zhuo seemed to have some scruples, and he didn't attack openly, but secretly gave that person a warning look.

For some reason, Bai Luo always felt that he could see a bit of helplessness and connivance in Li Zhuo's eyes.

What is the relationship between these two people...?

"Thank you fellow Taoists for giving me Meng some face, and willing to travel thousands of miles to attend my son's funeral." Seeing that everyone was almost here, Meng Ci stood up slowly and said.

Hearing Meng Ci's words, Bai Luo had no choice but to withdraw his probing gaze for the time being, and turned his attention to Meng Ci.

"My son was unfortunately killed by the ghost king not long ago. I believe everyone here has heard about it." Meng Ci just started talking, and directly blamed Su Yao for Meng Hefeng's death.

"Everyone is exhausted from the journey today. Let's not discuss this matter for the time being. Let's relax and enjoy it first. If there is any lack of hospitality, please bear with me."

Meng Ci was well-dressed, and what he said was full of the friendship of the landlord, but how could a smart person fail to understand the hidden meaning in Meng Ci's words?

It's just that everyone is testing each other and pretending to be confused.

By the time Bai Luo came to his senses, Li Zhuo and that mysterious Meng family disciple could no longer be found in the hall.

Chu Yunxiao didn't plan to stay here any longer, after the banquet was over, he called Bai Luo and Chu Shi, and they went back to the pre-arranged residence of the Meng family.

They all live on the second floor of the inn, and the three rooms are next to each other, so it is convenient to take care of anything.

In Chu Yunxiao's room, the three of them reconfirmed their plans for tomorrow, and seeing that it was getting late, they went back to their rooms to rest.

After tossing and turning on the bed in his own room for a long time, Bai Luo had to admit that Su Yao was not by his side, he seemed a little bit insomnia.

Today's plan went smoothly, and I just hope that nothing will go wrong tomorrow.

"Father, mother, I will avenge you soon."

Bai Luo half held the piece of Bai family's jade pendant that he took out from the bag, thinking about it, his breathing gradually became calmer, and he slowly fell asleep.

Early the next morning, they secretly launched an operation.

There are Meng Ci's eyeliner everywhere in Qincheng today, fearing to attract the attention of the Meng family, Chu Yunxiao only sent Chu Shi alone to meet the disciples of the alliance.

Long before they came to Qincheng, they had already discussed it.

Although many of the sects who came to the banquet chose to form allies with the Chu family and join forces to fight against the Meng family, the strength of the Meng family itself should not be underestimated.

In addition, the Meng family acted cautiously this time and restricted the number of sects who came to the banquet. If they really took action, they would definitely be at a disadvantage.

However, Su Yao chose to cooperate with Meng Han and the others, which brought a turn for the better.

They could use the influence Meng Han and Li Zhuo had accumulated in the Meng family over the years to secretly let some alliance disciples sneak into Qin City.

Meng Han and Li Zhuo's rebellion should be the only variable in Meng Ci's plan.

Bai Luo lowered his eyes slightly, hiding the dark and unclear emotions in his eyes.

And this variable is enough to destroy everything he, Meng Ci, has painstakingly worked on for decades.

Since yesterday's dinner, Meng Ci has been silent, and Chu Yunxiao and Bai Luo didn't want to attract attention, so they chose a remote place in the bamboo building to sit and kill time.

It was not until evening that Chu Shi hurried back.

"Brother Shi!" Seeing Chu Shi, Bai Luo hurriedly stood up to meet him, and was about to speak again, but Chu Shi silently stopped him with his eyes.

He quickly glanced behind him, and after making sure that the person hadn't followed, he grabbed Bai Luo's wrist and dragged him back to Chu Yunxiao.

Bai Luo pursed his lower lip, Chu Shi's hands trembled slightly, and he could still smell a faint smell of blood when he got close.

"I encountered a little trouble in the middle, but it has been settled. Now everyone is settled, and we just need to do it." Chu Shi said quickly.

Although he didn't go into details, Chu Yunxiao could probably guess what was going on. He patted Chu Shi's shoulder and seriously praised: "Good job."

Not used to such straightforward praise, Chu Shi looked away in a panic, and nodded silently.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door: "Master Chu, our Master Meng invites everyone to the main hall to have a speech."

"Understood." Chu Yunxiao replied in a deep voice.

Seeing that Chu Yunxiao sent away the disciples of the Meng family outside the door, Bai Luocai said: "This Meng Ci will pick his time."

"Every time it's arranged at night, it's uneasy and kind." Chu Shi said angrily.

Chu Yunxiao didn't care what kind of medicine was sold in Mengci's gourd. The worst outcome would be a battle, but isn't this the purpose of their trip?

Now that the disciples of the alliance have successfully sneaked into Qincheng, it is not certain who will suffer in the fight now.

Even if something really happened, Su Yao and the others were outside to help.Thinking of this, Bai Luo wasn't too worried.

"Can you hold on?" Chu Yunxiao stared at Chu Shi's injured hand and asked solemnly.

"A little injury, no problem." Chu Shi nodded, he has recovered a little now, and this injury will not affect his use of the sword.

Chu Yunxiao: "Okay, then let's go, let's meet him."

This time when the three of them came to the main hall, they were almost all there, but only the person on the main seat was still missing.

Most practitioners have excellent five senses, Bai Luo and the others just found a place to sit down when they heard some whispers from people around them.

"Why isn't the head of Meng coming here? This air is really not small."

"He mentioned the demon leader of the ghost world yesterday, and he summoned us again today. Does he have something important to tell us?"

"Hmph, what's the important thing? You think you haven't received enough gifts, and you want us to go back and give him another one?"

"Hey! Don't say anything, don't say it, people are coming soon!"

I don't know who yelled like a tip-off, the surrounding discussion quickly dissipated, and everyone silently moved their eyes to the vicinity of the palace gate.

Meng Ci's figure soon appeared in everyone's sight.

Wearing a black costume with golden dark patterns, he stepped in from the main hall gate and walked straight to the main seat in the middle of the hall.

His pace was unhurried, and even though he was stared at by so many pairs of eyes at the same time, he didn't show the slightest bit of embarrassment.

After taking his seat on the main seat, Meng Ci finally spoke: "Today, I have gathered everyone here. Apart from paying homage to my son's spirit in heaven, I also want to discuss with you about conquering the King of Ghosts."

He didn't say a word about the reason for his late arrival.

Hearing Meng Ci's plan to crusade against the ghost king, many people in the audience frowned. When they came to the banquet, they had never heard of it.

"Since the appearance of the new ghost king, many sects have been attacked one after another." Meng Ci continued, "I believe everyone here has heard about this incident."

"I heard..." Chu Shi had just said two words, but Bai Luo who was beside him cut off the conversation.

"I heard a fart." Bai Luo cursed secretly.

Of those sects attacked by Su Yao, which one didn't they pick things up first?Hit the idea on the ghost world, but have no ability to get benefits from Su Yao's men, so the villain sued first.

What's more, some things were clearly the work of their Meng family, but Meng Ci picked them all up with a few words, and blamed all the bad things on Su Yao.

"This Meng Ci's ability to open his eyes and tell nonsense is really not small." Bai Luo felt angry in his heart, wishing to go up and gag Meng Ci's mouth.

This was the first time Chu Shi heard Bai Luo swearing, he stared blankly at Bai Luo, and even forgot what he was going to say.

On weekdays, Chu Shi only focused on practicing kung fu, no matter what happened outside, he always looked indifferent.

However, not long ago, when Bai Luo was seriously injured, the ghost king personally came to deliver medicine to visit. It was widely known, even Chu Shi knew a lot.

At first, he didn't take it seriously, he just thought that the brothers had spread too much, but now after hearing Bai Luo's defense of Su Yao with his own ears, he was shaken again.

Are the two really as rumored...

Before Chu Shi could think about it, Meng Ci suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Now that my family has been killed by that ghost king, if you fellow Taoists are interested, why not destroy the ghost king together with my Meng family and give back to the world?" How about An Ning?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone immediately discussed and exploded like a frying pan.

Unexpectedly, many people really believed Meng Ci's words and chose to stand up and go along with him.

"Are they all a bunch of fools?" Chu Shi impatiently put down the cup in his hand, and was coaxed away with just a few words?

Chu Yunxiao, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke at this time: "After all, Meng Hefeng's death cannot be faked, and they dare not gamble with their own lives."

He glanced at those people with somewhat sympathetic eyes, and then said: "They are just afraid that they will be the next person to be found by the ghost king."

Seeing people stepping forward one after another, willing to fight against the ghost king with the Meng family, Meng Ci's mood improved a lot visibly.

However, apart from those who agreed, there were finally many knowledgeable people who couldn't bear it anymore and stood up to speak.

"Is this the attitude of your Meng family asking for help?"

"We can't just listen to your one-sided words. Can you provide evidence for what you said?"

"Fighting the ghost king is equivalent to declaring war on the entire ghost world. Have you ever thought about how many deaths and injuries will be caused by breaking this balance?"

It seems that as long as the first person stands up to oppose it, it will be easier to say what to say next.

Everyone became excited immediately, and even someone who knew the secrets of the Meng family directly exposed the matter of Meng Ci's arrest of the young and middle-aged to test the medicine.

"I've heard that Patriarch Meng has been developing a medicine that can wash people's marrow and regenerate their bones in recent years. It sounds amazing. I don't know how the development is going now. Many living people are needed to test the medicine. Bar?"

"I don't know about the ghost king's attack on those sects, but I know very well how many towns the Meng family destroyed. Master Meng, don't you have an explanation for these things?"

Hearing someone talking about pharmaceuticals, the expression on Meng Ci's face finally couldn't hold back, and his face suddenly sank: "What do you mean by that?"
