"Half a month ago, a Jindan cultivator left this secret post, but in the past few days, another Jindan cultivator has arrived. He is a new face, most likely transferred from Jinyun Sect.
Currently, there are still three Jindan cultivators in charge of the Jinyun Sect's secret base."
Meng Wan nodded slightly, placed the jade slip on the table, and looked at He Xianzhi calmly.
"What do you think I should do with this secret agent?"
He Xianzhi thought for a moment and spoke cautiously.
"Sir Saint, besides these three Jindan cultivators, the enemy also has quite a few Foundation Establishment cultivators hidden within their ranks. If we truly compare them, our base is slightly inferior in strength."
It's better to take a long-term view and wait until the opportunity is ripe before taking action."
After hearing this, Meng Wan remained silent.
"I remember that the Xuanyin Sect should have arranged two Jindan cultivators to be in charge of this stronghold, right? Why do I only see you?"
Upon hearing this, He Xianzhi hurriedly explained.
"Sir Saint Son, another Jindan manager has accepted a mission from the sect and is out on business. I think he won't be back for some time."
Meng Wan tapped lightly on the armrest of the chair, with no expression on her face.
The lights in the house flickered, making her figure appear bright and dim, adding a bit of mystery.
Seeing this, He Xianzhi suddenly became uneasy.
He had heard of this person's reputation. She was a ruthless person who could even kill her own relatives. Could it be that he would be beaten to death by her just because he said something wrong?
Just as He Xianzhi was becoming increasingly nervous, Meng Wan finally spoke, breaking the dead silence.
"Pass on this Saint Son's order to the other Golden Core cultivator to return immediately. There must be no mistakes."
He Xianzhi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly responded, "Yes, Lord Saint."
He quickly took out a communication talisman from his arms and injected a divine thought into it.
"Senior Sister Qiuhong, pass on the order from the Blood Path Saint Son and return to the base immediately."
When Qiuhong received the news, a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes. She had not yet completed her sect mission. If she was called back at this time, wouldn't all her efforts be wasted?
She was about to argue with He Xianzhi when she received another message.
"Senior Sister Qiuhong, Saint Meng intends to eliminate the hidden agents of the Jinyun Sect. Return immediately! Don't delay Saint Meng's important mission!"
A trace of resentment flashed across Qiuhong's face, but she was just an ordinary Jindan manager and did not want to offend the promising Blood Dao Saint.
He immediately rode on his escape light and started his return journey at the fastest speed.
He Xianzhi put away the communication token and reported respectfully.
"Sir Saint, Qiu Hong has sent back the news. If everything goes well, we will be able to return to the base tomorrow."
"very good."
Meng Wan nodded slightly and said calmly, "Once she returns, we'll set off immediately. This time, I want to completely eliminate the Jinyun Sect's hidden agents and leave no one alive."
Upon hearing this, He Xianzhi became even more afraid of Meng Wan's methods, but at the same time, he felt vaguely uneasy.
He knew that the Saint Son's strength far exceeded that of ordinary people, but the three Jindan cultivators in the Jinyun Sect's secret camp were by no means weak either.
He didn't dare to openly question Meng Wan's decision, so he could only remind her tactfully.
"Sir Saint Son, the enemy has three Jindan cultivators. Do we need to bring more people to be on the safe side?"
Meng Wan refused directly, "No need, you and Qiu Hong, just need to hold back the two Jindan cultivators from Jinyun Sect and buy me some time.
I'll take care of the rest."
Upon hearing this, He Xianzhi could only nod silently in agreement.
One day later.
Meng Wan sat upright in the main seat, tapping the table with her fingertips, making a rhythmic sound.
A burst of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded, and then a middle-aged woman dressed in Xuanyin Sect clothing walked in quickly and bowed to Meng Wan.
"Son, I am the person in charge of this stronghold, Qiuhong."
"Very good, now that you're back, pack up and get ready for action."
Meng Wan stood up, her tone filled with an unquestionable determination.
Qiuhong looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak.
The sect has been keeping an eye on this secret agent for a long time.
A rash attack would most likely alert the enemy and ruin the sect's years of planning.
Moreover, the outside world's evaluation of this new Holy Son is mostly based on rumors, and his actual strength remains to be seen.
Seeing this, He Xianzhi sighed inwardly.
Qiu Hong has always been cautious in character, and I'm afraid she wants to dissuade the Holy Son.
As expected, after a moment's hesitation, Qiu Hong spoke up, "Saint Son, may I ask if you have truly decided to attack the Jinyun Sect's hidden agents? With all due respect, I'm afraid this is not a good idea."
When Meng Wan heard this, her expression showed no emotion. She just turned her head and looked at Qiu Hong indifferently.
"Manager Qiu, are you teaching me how to do things?"
Qiuhong took a deep breath and said in a deep voice under the pressure from Meng Wan.
"I dare not, but... we have been watching the Jinyun Sect's stronghold for a long time. We know that there are many experts there, and it is not easy to break through.
Although the Holy Son is extremely powerful, he is only at the Foundation Establishment stage after all. You destroyed the Meng family, and the outside world is talking about it, but in the final analysis, you just killed some cultivators in the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining stages..."
Qiuhong made up her mind and said the rest of the words.
"You've caused such a big stir in Qingsha County, but you can't even kill the old and frail Meng Patriarch of the Meng family, who is only at the second level of Jindan cultivation. How can I feel at ease..."
"Manager Qiu!"
Before Qiuhong could finish her words, she was interrupted by He Xianzhi's harsh voice.
"Do you know what you are saying? How can you make irresponsible remarks about the Holy Son's affairs? Are you questioning His Excellency's strength?"
Qiuhong's expression changed slightly, but it was obvious that she was not convinced.
"Of course, I dare not question the Saint Son's strength, but this journey is dangerous. If we make a mistake, everything will be lost. I am just being cautious and want to advise the Saint Son to think twice before acting."
He Xianzhi was about to say something else, but Meng Wan reached out and stopped him from saying the next word.
She looked at Qiuhong, not hiding the admiration in her eyes.
"Manager Qiu's concerns are not without reason, but you may not know that as early as yesterday, Patriarch Meng was executed."
Qiuhong was stunned for a moment, then quickly bowed to Meng Wan, and her tone softened a lot.
"The Saint Son's strength is indeed beyond measure, but...
Patriarch Meng was very old and came from a small family. He was just lucky and had some opportunities to break through to the Golden Core Realm.
But the Jindan cultivators of the Jinyun Sect grew up in the Jinyun Sect, and in terms of their strength and knowledge, they are not comparable to the likes of Patriarch Meng. "
Seeing Qiuhong so stubborn, He Xianzhi hurried to smooth things over.
"Manager Liu, since the Holy Son has made his decision, he must have his reasons. All we have to do is obey."
He winked at Qiuhong, signaling her not to anger Meng Wan again.
Meng Wan smiled, "After all, Manager Qiu still doubts the strength of this Saint Son."
She suddenly raised her hand, and a blood-red light flashed, heading straight for Qiuhong's face!
