As the Sun Moon Sect took action, the Hengshan Sect naturally received the news.
At the same time, it was immediately shared with the Huashan Sect.
Ning Zhong Ze immediately called Linghu Chong and Lian Cheng to the study for a meeting. Now that her husband, Yue Buqun, was in seclusion, and her disciples were becoming more capable, she naturally wanted to discuss with her two disciples.
Mainly, she alone could not make such a big decision.
"The Demon Cult is inquiring about our Huashan Sect's information everywhere?"
Linghu Chong frowned, "Are they really planning to attack us? But, it seems that those who are looking for information are mostly those from the three religions and nine schools. Are those also people from the Demon Cult?"
Lian Cheng shook his head: "To be precise, they are the peripheral members of the Demon Cult, not directly managed by the Demon Cult. They are under the command of a certain individual. They are numerous, with mixed backgrounds, and almost everyone does everything. Most of them have low strength. But you can't underestimate them because they are well-informed, and each has some special skills."
In the original novel, people like the Six Immortals of Taogu and Ping Yizhi were not direct members of the Demon Cult, but under the command of Saintess Ren Yingying.
They only followed the orders of Saintess Ren Yingying, and no one else in the Demon Cult could control them.
The Six Immortals of Taogu were not weak, and the six combined, were probably not afraid of Zuo Lengchan. Ping Yizhi, on the other hand, was a skilled doctor who could even bring the dead back to life.
Therefore, there are masters among the common folk, and no one should be underestimated!
Linghu Chong was even more confused: "If they have the ability, why would they listen to the orders of the Demon Cult? Wouldn't it be better to be free and unfettered?"
So, senior brother, you really don't understand the world!
It's said that people in the world are not free, how can you be free and unfettered?
Lian Cheng patiently explained: "If one could be free and unfettered, who wouldn't want to? Especially those from the three religions and nine schools, they would naturally not want to be controlled by others. However, they are forced to take the Three Corpse Brain-God Pill. Inside that poison pill, there is a corpse insect. If they do not receive the antidote at a specific time, the corpse insect will break out of the pill and burrow into their brain, devouring it. The person would then go mad. That feeling is probably worse than simply committing suicide. Would you say that those people wouldn't obey?"
Hiss!!!
Linghu Chong couldn't help but shiver, and even Ning Zhong Ze turned pale.
Although Ning Zhong Ze had heard some rumors about the Three Corpse Brain-God Pill, she didn't know it very clearly. Now, hearing her disciple's explanation, she immediately felt a chill.
She couldn't help but scold: "The Demon Cult is truly vicious! They actually use this poison pill to control others. They should be destroyed!"
How would she know that in the original novel, Ren Yingying fed Yue Buqun the Three Corpse Brain-God Pill to make him obey. Later, Yue Buqun, seeking the antidote, directly chose to ambush Ren Yingying and Linghu Chong. Later, he was sucked by Linghu Chong's Star Absorbing Great Force, and finally was struck by a sword from behind by Yi Lin, the little nun, and completely walked towards his end.
It can be said that this Three Corpse Brain-God Pill is truly terrifying. Even Zhang Sanfeng, if he ate it, probably wouldn't be able to withstand it.
Besides suicide, there is only submission. But those from the three religions and nine schools, even if they have some skills, don't have the guts to commit suicide, and naturally can only follow orders.
The more Linghu Chong thought about it, the more chilled he felt. He probably wouldn't dare to like Ren Yingying even if the plot continued as in the original novel.
"Right, Ding Xian Shi Tai asked if we need the Hengshan Sect to lend a hand?"
Ning Zhong Ze continued, "Shi Tai means that the Demon Cult wants to investigate Huashan Sect's information in depth, and they will surely gather in Huayin County. We can eliminate these spies as a warning to the Demon Cult."
Linghu Chong exclaimed in praise: "Haha! They stretch out their hand, I cut their hand. It's straightforward!"
Lian Cheng also found this method feasible and asked, "What did Ding Xian Shi Tai say specifically?"
Ning Zhong Ze smiled: "Ding Xian Shi Tai plans to let Ding Yi Shi Tai bring her disciples to Huayin County. If we agree, we will send a carrier pigeon immediately. Ding Yi Shi Tai will naturally depart immediately."
The three looked at each other and nodded in unison.
The Huashan Sect was indeed declining. There were barely any capable people, and now Yue Buqun was in seclusion. All they had were Ning Zhong Ze and her two disciples holding up the facade.
Now facing a crisis, they shouldn't try to put on a brave face.
The Three Dings of the Hengshan Sect were compassionate and had always been friendly with the Huashan Sect. Since they were willing to help, the Huashan Sect shouldn't refuse.
Lian Cheng said: "Then send a message to the Hengshan Sect. But remember to remind them not to speak to outsiders, especially not to let the Songshan Sect know about this quickly. I'm afraid that Zuo Lengchan will create trouble."
Ning Zhong Ze was relaxed: "Don't worry, Ding Xian Shi Tai is wise and knows the danger of the Songshan Sect."
It's true. Among the Three Dings of Hengshan, Ding Xian Shi Tai was the most reliable. When the Hengshan Sect was choosing a new leader, Ding Jing Shi Tai, as the eldest disciple, felt that her second sister Ding Xian was more outstanding and proactively asked her master to pass the leadership to Ding Xian.
The Hengshan Sect's current strength is inseparable from Ding Xian Shi Tai's wisdom.
Ding Xian Shi Tai must have known about the Songshan Sect's wolfish ambitions long ago, so there was no need to remind her.
Ning Zhong Ze immediately arranged for a carrier pigeon. Then, the three discussed further and decided that Lian Cheng and Linghu Chong would go to Huayin County a few days later to meet Ding Yi Shi Tai and the others.
Although there was only Ning Zhong Ze guarding the sect, if the enemy really attacked, the secluded Yue Buqun would definitely make a move.
Moreover, the enemy didn't know the Huashan Sect's specific situation, so they wouldn't dare to attack the mountain gate rashly. There was no need to worry too much.
However, the Hengshan Sect came all the way to help. They couldn't let them work for nothing.
As the saying goes, repay a kindness with a kindness.
To further enhance the friendship between the two sects, they had to give them something good.
Lian Cheng suggested: "Shi Niang, how about after this matter is settled, we give Ding Yi Shi Tai some of the lost Hengshan sword techniques from the Cave Sword Art? To befriend the Hengshan Sect, simply relying on the Five Mountains Alliance's friendship isn't enough. What do you think, Shi Niang?"
Ning Zhong Ze couldn't help but ponder.
Naturally, Ning Zhong Ze also had a good feeling about the Hengshan Sect.
It could be said that among the Five Mountains Alliance, only the Hengshan Sect was genuinely friendly with the Huashan Sect. Moreover, seeing the crisis facing the Huashan Sect, they were very proactive in offering help.
In today's world of deceit and treachery, such friends were rare.
Therefore, if they wanted to befriend the Hengshan Sect further, the Huashan Sect naturally had to give something in return. The Cave Sword Art was the best choice.
However, the Cave Sword Art was a matter of great importance and couldn't be given out casually.
Ning Zhong Ze helplessly said: "I can't make this decision. I'll ask your master later. You two go and prepare well. Don't neglect Ding Yi Shi Bo when the time comes."
After the meeting, Ning Zhong Ze immediately went to her husband's secluded place.
The outcome didn't surprise Ning Zhong Ze. Upon hearing Lian Cheng's suggestion, Yue Buqun, without much hesitation, nodded in agreement.
Come to think of it, since Lian Cheng joined the Huashan Sect, his performance had always surprised the couple. The Lian Cheng Sword Art and the Lingbo Weibu he had created had further enhanced the sect's foundation.
The Xuanming Divine Palm was obtained thanks to Lian Cheng's wisdom and knowledge.
Such a disciple was naturally a treasure of the sect. When a treasure made a suggestion, naturally, one had to nod in affirmation.
