Starting Cultivation During a Trip

Chapter 580 - 283: The Place Where Three Corpses Daoist Achieved Enlightenment! Zhang Fan’s Schemes (Part 3)

"Are you a Zodiac?"

With her silver teeth clenched tightly, Meng Qiwu looked towards Bai Yujing, or more precisely, at Bai Yujing’s shadow.

"Hmm!?"

Bai Yujing did not answer but revealed a strange expression.

"I am someone of the Rat. He told me how to find the way into Tai Sui Village," Meng Qiwu explained.

"You’re someone of the Rat?" Bai Yujing’s expression shifted in response to the words.

Within the Thirteen Zodiacs, the most mysterious existence is the Rat.

Legend has it that no one has ever seen the real Rat, not even Human Xiao or Tai Sui.

"If you don’t believe me, look."

Meng Qiwu raised her hand, pointing to the back of her neck, only to be held tight by Zhang Fan.

"Can... you move a bit?" Meng Qiwu asked weakly.

"..."

Zhang Fan slightly loosened his grip, and there, three inches beneath Meng Qiwu’s white neck, was a faint mark, resembling the bite of a rodent.

"It really is the mark of the Rat!" Bai Yujing showed a grave expression.

To have the Primordial Spirit marked by the Rat means one is surely a confidant of the Rat.

"Hopefully, for the sake of the Rat..." Meng Qiwu hesitated.

If it wasn’t for survival, she would never have revealed her true identity.

"I was wondering why your tough talk is like eating tofu, furrowing your brow is not the act of someone from Zhongnan Mountain, seems you’re from the Wuwei Sect." Zhang Fan sneered.

His mind spun, and he released Meng Qiwu.

"Thank you!" Meng Qiwu rubbed her neck, looking warily at Zhang Fan, and reluctantly expressed her gratitude.

"Don’t thank me yet. I didn’t release you for the Rat’s sake. In fact, I don’t know him at all, and I’m not from the Wuwei Sect either," Zhang Fan motioned with his hand.

"Then why?" Meng Qiwu asked curiously.

"Go back and ask for me if they’re willing to join forces with me against the Chen Dragon."

At this, not only was Meng Qiwu surprised, even Bai Yujing beside them showed a strange expression.

"I know, all of you Thirteen Zodiacs know my background..."

Zhang Fan sneered: "Go ask the Rat for me, ten years ago, they went to great lengths to help the Chen Dragon wipe out my family, what did they gain in the end?"

After the previous Human Xiao’s death, the Thirteen Zodiacs were leaderless, the older generation either dead or crippled, and the new generation lacked experience and influence.

On the contrary, the Chen Dragon’s mastery of the Five Elements Mistaken King made them dominant.

The most absurd part is, after paying such a huge price, not a single member of their family died!

"Go back and tell the Rat, times have changed. I just want to deal with the Chen Dragon alone, I’ll let bygones be bygones with the others," Zhang Fan sneered.

Even though their family is caught in Tribulation, like clay idols crossing the river, unable to protect themselves.

But as long as they’re alive, there’s hope, enough to make others wary.

"Of course, he can refuse, and by then, I’ll flip the whole table."

Just like Li Yishan said, their family has some employees with seniority too old, who aren’t on their side. If they’re not on the same side, such employees should be replaced.

"Zhang Fan... seems I underestimated you. It’s astounding that in this vast world, among the younger generation, someone like you exists, daring to challenge the foundation of the Wuwei Sect with such prowess." Meng Qiwu gave Zhang Fan a deep look, taking a deep breath.

This boldness is unmatched by any peer she has known.

"What if I don’t agree?" Meng Qiwu pondered.

Smack...

As soon as the words left her lips, Zhang Fan swung a heavy slap, sending sparks flying from the proud daughter of Zhongnan Mountain.

"Why are you acting all high and mighty? If you don’t agree, I’ll expose you." Zhang Fan grinned slightly.

"I’ll live off this secret forever!"

"You..." Meng Qiwu, both anxious and angry, finally looked at Zhang Fan’s reckless eyes, her stance suddenly weakened.

"I agree with you."

"There’s one more thing."

"What else?" Meng Qiwu furrowed her brows, gritting her teeth.

"Er Gou, come here."

Zhang Fan gestured, pulling the dazed Qin Ergou to his side.

"Brother Fan..."

"I want him to enter Zhongnan Mountain!!" Zhang Fan declared firmly.
