The innkeeper cautiously accepted Zhang Yifeng's demonic energy, but found that Zhang Yifeng was not hostile to him at all.
The demonic energy that was beaten back retracted into the shopkeeper's hands and flowed back into the Dantian without any intention of consumption.
The shopkeeper noticed that Zhang Yifeng had no intention of fighting, and raised his hand while frowning to stop the attacks of the demon cultivators around him.
"What do you mean by this? Did you know that I would take action?"
The innkeeper frowned and looked at Zhang Yifeng with squinted eyes.
"Of course, based on what I just heard, your demon sect and the Yanlong Sect are incompatible with each other. Whether I talk about my relationship with the Yanlong Sect or not, it will arouse your suspicion.
Weighing one and two, it's better to tell the truth, and it's much easier to explain."
"oh?"
The innkeeper's brows relaxed slightly, Zhang Yifeng obviously meant that they still had something to talk about.
"I just made a sudden move, didn't you care at all?"
The innkeeper didn't quite believe Zhang Yifeng that he would just put down what he had just done, and asked Zhang Yifeng in a low voice.
"Haha, fellow Taoist words are serious. Since I have guessed that fellow Taoist will take action, I naturally understand your concerns.
What's more, fellow Taoist fellow Taoist didn't hurt me even if he took action."
Of course Zhang Yifeng smiled, and a gleam flashed in the innkeeper's eyes when he heard this.
"I didn't expect that your Excellency would be so open-minded. How are you going to explain your relationship with the Yanlong Sect?"
"It's simple. I really want to join the Yanlong Sect.
But of course it is impossible that I joined the Yanlong Sect specifically because of my yearning for it, as these fellow Taoists have said just now.
This Yanlong Sect is secretly committing crimes. A very important person to me is now imprisoned by the Yanlong Sect inside the mountain gate.
This matter is important to me, but I believe in the integrity of everyone in the Demon Cult, so there is no harm in informing you."
Zhang Yifeng waved his hand and said frankly.
The innkeeper looked thoughtful when he heard this. He couldn't believe everything Zhang Yifeng said.
But since the other party has expressed his position, he has to give a response no matter what.
Judging from Zhang Yifeng's behavior after arriving at the stronghold of his demon sect, he believed that what Zhang Yifeng said was true.
Originally, the innkeeper was a little confident about whether he could win Zhang Yifeng, but after the hasty fight just now, his evaluation of Zhang Yifeng skyrocketed.
If he really takes action, he may not be able to keep any of his men in this room, and they will all be killed by this mysterious monk.
Whether he can defeat the opponent or not is a matter of speculation. The most likely outcome is that both sides will be injured or even he will be injured and flee.
The scene where Zhang Yifeng caught the attack of his demonic energy with his bare hands really frightened the innkeeper so much that he no longer dared to attack Zhang Yifeng rashly.
"Haha, actually I don't have much to do with the monks of the Demon Sect. We are even enemies of the Yanlong Sect.
Working together to deal with the behemoth Yanlong Sect is what we should do, right?"
Seeing the hesitation on the innkeeper's face, Zhang Yifeng quickly added fuel to the fire and added with a smile.
After listening to Zhang Yifeng's words, the innkeeper's face showed emotion.
I have to say that Zhang Yifeng's proposal did exactly what the innkeeper wanted.
After listening to what Zhang Yifeng said, the innkeeper had the idea of joining forces with Zhang Yifeng.
After all, the goal of both parties is the Yanlong Sect, so there might be an opportunity for cooperation.
Now I heard Zhang Yifeng take the initiative to mention it, and the innkeeper's statement that he wasn't moved was all a lie.
"Tsk, your proposal is indeed exciting.
But I am just an elder in the Demon Cult. If I really want to discuss cooperation with you, I must obtain the consent of our leader.
However, the current situation is urgent, and I hope you can help our Demon Cult rescue the escaped undercover agent."
The innkeeper said to Zhang Yifeng sincerely, and Zhang Yifeng frowned upon hearing this.
"This is not easy to handle. After all, the target of my current mission is him.
If we can’t bring the person back, are we afraid that the mission will fail?”
There was a look of contemplation on Zhang Yifeng's face. When the innkeeper heard this, his expression changed, and his eyes towards Zhang Yifeng became wary.
If Zhang Yifeng insists on bringing their demon sect's undercover agent back to the Yanlong Sect, then no matter what the outcome is today, he will risk his life to fight Zhang Yifeng.
Seeing the wary look on the innkeeper's face, Zhang Yifeng waved his hand to signal him not to be nervous.
"Your Excellency, you must be too nervous. Although it is difficult to handle, it is not really impossible.
The Yanlong Sect actually didn't care whether the traitor lived or died. They just wanted to confirm that the so-called traitor had died without a burial place.
So, the shopkeeper should understand what I mean."
Zhang Yifeng took a deep look at the innkeeper. Listening to what Zhang Yifeng said, a glint flashed in the innkeeper's eyes.
"Is that what your Excellency means?"
Pursing his lips, the innkeeper's eyes flashed with hope, if he could successfully pull off the raccoon cat-for-prince trick.
Their demon sect will definitely be able to achieve a win-win situation with Zhang Yifeng.
"Now that I've said it all, I'm 50% sure.
However, the specific situation still depends on the situation. Before the undercover agent of the Demon Sect does not show up on his own initiative, the shopkeeper is asked to be patient for a while.
Do not take the initiative to have any contact with him within three days, otherwise all your efforts will be wasted."
Zhang Yifeng ordered in a solemn tone, and immediately walked to Nanfeng who was pinned in the corner, regardless of the innkeeper's reaction.
Nanfeng had long lost all perception of the outside world, so naturally he didn't hear a word said between Zhang Yifeng and the Demon Sect.
Just as he was about to leave with Nanfeng, Zhang Yifeng suddenly remembered something and turned to the innkeeper and asked.
"I wonder if you know anything about the massacre of a family named Nan's family in Fire City?"
Zhang Yifeng suddenly remembered that he had not inquired about the family affairs for Nan Feng, so he quickly asked the innkeeper before leaving.
"Huocheng Nan's family...it seems that there is indeed such a family.
There are rumors in Huo City and even the entire Yanlong Sect that it was our Demon Sect members who massacred the Nan family.
In fact, this is not the case. As I just told you, this is also the work of the Yanlong Sect.
In order to support the forces belonging to the Yanlong Sect in the Fire City, they used the demon cultivators who had betrayed the demon sect to massacre the entire Nanan family for them, and then supported the new family to reach the top position."
Regarding the Nan family matter, Zhang Yifeng asked the right person.
This was all because among the group of demon cultivators who destroyed the Nan family, there was the apprentice of the innkeeper, and he was quite concerned about this matter.
"Why did you suddenly remember to ask about this matter? Could it be that they provoked you?"
The innkeeper was a little confused as to why Zhang Yifeng suddenly asked about this matter.
