Of course, Daoist Zhichen had no objections to encircling and suppressing Chang 'an.
However, Fuzhen Guan was currently extremely weak. Although the Cheng family was mediating, if the encirclement and suppression of Chang 'an did not go smoothly, Qingbokgung and Mirror Moon Tower could turn around and threaten Fuzhen Guan.
Moreover, Daoist Zhichen knew very well that Chang 'an was not a place that could be easily dealt with.
In Heavenly Wolf's secret cave, Old Demon Blood Shadow, who had severely injured him, had left a deep impression on him.
He was only a Level-7 demon, but he was actually so powerful.
Elder Yunchen's disappearance in Chang 'an was one disaster after another for Fuzhen Guan.
"Chang 'an is located in Longling. It is our duty to protect it."
Slowly, Daoist Zhichen faced the people in front of him and said, "However, I am currently injured and cannot leave the mountain."
"I understand your difficulties." Slowly, Mr. Mingxi from the Cheng family said, "How is Elder Yunchen's health now?"
The two people beside him were also looking at Daoist Zhichen.
Of these two people, one was a tall and sturdy old man with a valiant appearance, while the other was dressed like Daoist Zhi Chen in Daoist attire.
The former was the Elder of Mirror Moon Tower, 'Lion Under the Moon' Yao Kui.
The latter was the Elder of Qingbokgung, Jing Tong.
Like Mr. Mingxi, they were Level-7 cultivators.
Now that they were facing Daoist Zhichen, who was Level-8, together, they did not appear to be weak.
However, this was naturally due to the fact that Daoist Zhi Chen had yet to fully recover from his injuries.
Daoist Zhichen himself was unwilling to leave the mountain easily. Mr. Mingxi and the other two had expected this.
If someone were to plot against him, then Fuzhen Guan would face the risk of his entire sect being wiped out.
Although Mr. Mingxi was the guarantor and would indeed fulfill his promise, Daoist Zhichen was better off being safe than sorry.
Under the present circumstances, even if he left the mountain and went to Chang 'an, he would never really contribute to the attack and risk everything to be cannon fodder for others.
Therefore, Mr. Mingxi did not expect to be able to persuade Daoist Zhichen to take action.
However, Fuzhen Guan needed a top-notch master to do it. Daoist Zhichen did not want to go, so naturally, the second most powerful master in the temple, Elder Yunchen, had to do it.
"Martial Uncle fought with the Sky Wolf in the secret cave long ago. His injuries are even more serious than I's. He's currently in seclusion."
Daoist Zhichen's heart skipped a beat, but his expression did not change. He concealed the truth of Elder Yunchen's disappearance in Chang 'an.
Mr. Mingxi and the other two frowned when they heard this.
"Both the Taoist and Elder Yunchen are not free. It seems that Fuzhen Guan has no one." Elder Yao Kui of Mirror Moon Tower was the first to speak with a slight sneer.
On the other side, Elder Jing Tong of Qingbokgung said calmly, "Brother, please come down the mountain and lend us a hand to suppress Chang 'an."
Mr. Mingxi did not speak. He just looked at Daoist Zhichen quietly.
Daoist Zhichen also knew that it was impossible for him to not do anything.
He said calmly, "Martial Uncle I and Martial Uncle Yunchen have the will but not the power. However, besieging Chang 'an is the most important task at hand. Our temple will do its best.
Junior Martial Brother Jiang will take the Magic Fog Robe down the mountain and wait for Mr. Mingxi's orders. "
The Junior Martial Brother Jiang he mentioned was a Sixth Realm Taoist master in Fuzhen Guan. The Magic Fog Robe was a top magic weapon on par with the Yunluo cover and the Heart-Watching Horsetail Whisk.
The eyes of Elder Yao Kui of Mirror Moon Tower and Elder Jing Tong of Qingbokgung flashed slightly, but they did not object.
It was necessary for them to attack Chang 'an together.
Both of their families also had disciples who were trapped in Chang 'an.
However, after attacking Chang 'an, there was no need for the Magic Fog Robe to return to Fuzhen Guan …
It would not be too late to slowly make Fuzhen Guan after defeating Chang 'an and without the Cheng Family's interference.
Mr. Mingxi glanced at Yao Kui and Jing Tong, then nodded at Daoist Zhichen.
"I am very grateful that the Taoist is so righteous. I will do my best to protect you."
"Thank you, Mr. Mingxi." Daoist Zhichen raised his hand.
A cloud of mist fell on his palm and condensed into a horsetail whisk.
At the same time, a middle-aged Daoist Zhichen came to them. He was Elder Jiang Chaoning of Fuzhen Guan, Junior Martial Brother of Daoist Zhichen.
"Chang 'an has committed a heinous crime. It detained Junior Martial Brother Tang and the others. Now, Mr. Mingxi is leading us to besiege Chang' an."
Daoist Zhi Chen then instructed Jiang Zhaoning, "Pick out the elites of our monastery and bring along the Illusory Mist Robe. Move together with Mister Mingxi to break through Chang 'an and rescue Junior Brother Tang and the rest."
"Yes, Temple Master." Jiang Chaoning took the Magic Fog Robe and then bowed to the others.
They chatted for a while and then left. After counting the number of people, they set off for Chang 'an.
Daoist Zhichen watched them leave with a calm expression.
Jiang Chaoning selected some disciples of Fuzhen Guan and then went down the mountain with Mr. Mingxi and the others. They joined the people of Mirror Moon Tower, Qingbokgung, and the Cheng family and set off together.
Many state capitals in Fuzhen Guan's territory were now occupied by Mirror Moon Tower and Qingbokgung.
There were still quite a number of troops from these two families who were waiting for orders at any time.
Although they had stopped attacking Fuzhen Guan, they had not retreated. Naturally, they would not give up the areas they had occupied.
The young disciples of Fuzhen Guan were sad and angry, but they could only endure it.
Elder Jiang Zhaoning was still calm and composed.
When he took the Magic Fog Robe from the Temple Master, Daoist Zhichen, he received a message from Daoist Zhichen to keep a low profile.
After meeting with everyone, Jiang Chaoning found that there was another important person in the Cheng family besides Mr. Mingxi.
Mr. Ling Ping, Cheng Luo.
This person was the nephew of Mr. Mingxi, Cheng Jingyuan. His cultivation was not weaker than Mr. Mingxi's. He was also a master in the seventh realm of the Confucian School, the Knowledge State.
Seeing Cheng Luo, Jiang Chaoning was a little surprised. It seemed that the Cheng family paid more attention to Chang 'an than expected.
Was it because some of their people were also trapped in Chang 'an, or … because of the heir of the Eastern Tang?
While thinking, Jiang Chaoning was careful with his words and actions. He quietly followed Mr. Mingxi and the others to Chang 'an.
They came to Longbei County without stopping and gradually approached the Qinzhou Prefecture.
"Should we try peaceful means before resorting to force and negotiate with them?"
The Elder of Qingbokgung, Jing Tong, looked at the looming mountains in the distance.
"According to the current information, some disciples of each family have fallen into the hands of the enemy. They are still alive. If we act rashly, we may hurt these people."
The Elder of Jing Tong looked around.
The Elder of Mirror Moon Tower, Yao Kui, said, "If we make a sound first, the enemy will be prepared. It's better to use Thunder to catch them off guard."
"At least, we should find out what is going on in the city and know ourselves as well as the enemy." Mr. Ling Ping, Cheng Luo, said. His voice was calm and convincing.
The Elder of Qingbokgung looked at the Elder of Fuzhen Guan, Jiang Chaoning, who had been standing quietly.
"Fellow Practitioner Jiang, you are wearing the Magic Fog Robe. It is difficult for others to detect you. If you are found by people in the city, it is easy to evacuate. I wonder if you can find out what is going on in the city?"
Jiang Chaoning looked at Mr. Mingxi.
Slowly, the old man nodded, "Thank you, Taoist Jiang."
"You are welcome. I will try my best." Jiang Chaoning bowed to the crowd.
The next moment, his figure gradually became transparent with the Magic Fog Robe on his body and disappeared in the air.
Between heaven and earth, there was only a vague cloud that was almost invisible to the naked eye. It drifted to the Longling Ridge in the distance.
The cloud drifted over the Qinzhou Prefecture, entered the deep mountains of the Longling Ridge, and slowly drifted to Baiyunyuan.
However, before he arrived at Baiyunyuan, Zhang Dongyun in the Daming Palace in Chang 'an City noticed his arrival.
Master Zhang rubbed his hands and was ready to accept the new gift. However, he found that Jiang Chaoning, who turned into a cloud, did not approach Baiyunyuan.
The cloud only hovered in the deep forests of the Longling Ridge for a moment. It did nothing and then drifted out.
