Myths Begin From Boys' Gong

If we put these issues aside and look at it purely from the perspective of pros and cons, Meng Zhao's strong strength will be of great benefit to the cooperation between the two parties, and even to the Xie family's allegiance.

The more powerful Meng Zhao is, the better the ship's ability to withstand wind and waves will be. For Xie Wanzhi and the Xie family, it is a good choice.

Of course, if you board the Meng family's ship, you will naturally be targeted by other forces for various reasons in the future, especially the Beitang royal family and even the Dayong Dynasty. Hostility is a matter of time.

What Xie Wanzhi was concerned about was whether Meng Zhao could withstand the pressure from the Beitang royal family and the Dayong Dynasty, and whether Xie Jiayou could land safely.

After much thought, his point of view is still very clear. With Meng Zhao's talent, potential, endless trump cards, and unfathomable background, even if he does not win a big victory in the future, it will be difficult for him to suffer a big defeat.

Furthermore, what he needs to focus on is not things that will happen many years in the future. It is not too late to get the immediate benefits first and cultivate himself into a celestial being before talking about other things.

After a long time, Xie Wanzhi finally made a choice.

"Okay, I will write a letter and ask the four branches of the Xie family to cooperate with all the actions of the Meng family. However, I also hope that King Meng Long can give them more opportunities. Although none of my children have become successful, they are not too bad!"

Meng Zhao looked at Xie Wanzhi and shook his head secretly. This man was vicious and had no feelings at all. The so-called offspring and bloodline were sometimes very important in his heart, but sometimes, they were worthless.

  Just like what he said just now, it seemed like he was asking for favor from Meng Zhao, but in fact, wasn't it a deliberate inducement?

People always have to have something they care about, and they always have to have some weaknesses. Otherwise, if there are no flaws or weaknesses, and no emotions at all, who would dare to employ or trust such a person?

Xie Wanzhi is a veteran and knows this principle well, so he emphasized it and deliberately exposed this flaw to Meng Zhao. If Meng Zhao really thinks that he can control Xie Wanzhi with these four branches of the Xie family in his hands in the future, it would be pure wishful thinking.

However, he did not care so much. Sometimes, recruiting subordinates is just like training a dog. It is a process of pulling and bargaining. As long as the method is right and the dominant and advantageous position is always maintained, it is very likely to succeed.

  Meng Zhao paused and continued,

"Okay, since Grandmaster Xie is so generous, I, Meng Zhao, will not be stingy either. You can use the people on the list that Xie Jun gave you. I don't care how they died or how many died.

But you can’t touch anyone outside the list!”

Compared to his previous shocks, Xie Wanzhi was somewhat immune to it now, at least he didn't show any movement on the surface.

In fact, after Meng Zhao demonstrated his extraordinary strength and power one after another, he was mentally prepared that some of his own affairs might not be hidden from the all-powerful King Meng Long.

For example, several of his direct disciples, each of them had a special physique and bloodline, and were outstanding among men. However, they all met with unexpected misfortunes, and no one was spared. In addition, he was not a small character, so it was easy for them to be discovered.

Of course, even if they found out, some people could do nothing about it. Whether Meng Zhao had any entanglement with those people or not, it was impossible for him to have conflicts with him over some dead people. Therefore, he was not too worried.

The only thing he didn't expect was that Meng Zhao actually knew that Xie Jun had given him a list. What was even more shocking was that Meng Zhao didn't have any protection measures for the people on the list. He was simply defenseless and let him do whatever he wanted.

Moreover, this is not even a hint, but an explicit statement.

Xie Wanzhi immediately had two thoughts.

Firstly, Xie Jun, this evil disciple, was either fooled by Meng Zhao and thought he had succeeded but was actually extremely stupid, or he was recruited by Meng Zhao and had a new backer.

Xie Wanzhi was actually a little unhappy about this, especially the latter. After all, Xie Jun was his disciple, and Meng Zhao's move seemed to be overstepping his authority. But then again, even he had to submit to Meng Zhao, so how could Xie Jun have the courage to go against Meng Zhao's wishes?

Secondly, these people on the list are undoubtedly Meng Zhao's subordinates, but after screening, they should be found to be other forces planted in the Meng family, or they may have ulterior motives.

Meng Zhao was thinking of using him to eliminate these moles without causing internal panic due to the cleansing measures. It could be said that he was killing two birds with one stone.

  You bastard, you’re so smart. I guess you’d squeeze the shit out of a toad if you could catch one!

However, even though he knew Meng Zhao already knew some of his secrets, Xie Wanzhi still did not admit it directly, but asked,

"Lord Meng Long, how do you know that I need people with special physiques and bloodlines? You not only checked my descendants, but also my disciples?" Meng Zhao did not deny it and nodded, "Yes, I am very interested in Grandmaster Xie, so I naturally sent capable people to carefully investigate the life of the Grandmaster and learned some secrets. But you can rest assured that those disciples with special physiques and bloodlines have no entanglement with me, and you can decide their life and death.

Similarly, you can do the same to those on the list, but you cannot touch those who are not on the list.

Grandmaster Xie, do you understand what I mean?"

"Xie Jun can't move either?"

"Well, Xie Jun cannot be touched. Since he is not on the list, you naturally cannot do anything to him, unless you want to go against my will!"

  Xie Wanzhi was puzzled. Xie Jun's martial arts skills were mediocre. Although he possessed the body of a green mulberry tree, what did that mean to Meng Zhao?

He has no other power or background, and his biggest backer is just Xie Wanzhi. Why would Meng Zhao protect him?

In fact, Xie Wanzhi fell into a misconception. It is not only the value that makes Meng Zhao worth protecting. The existence of Xie Jun itself is a means and backup plan for Meng Zhao to contain Xie Wanzhi.

To put it bluntly, Xie Jun is a thorn in Meng Zhao's side, buried next to Xie Wanzhi. It doesn't matter whether he can seize Xie Wanzhi's weaknesses or not. What matters is that he must exist and cannot be pulled out.

It is somewhat similar to the military supervisor sent by the emperor to the army to serve as his eyes and ears.

Furthermore, Xie Jun also has some cleverness and luck. Although he is not very special, he has a good relationship with Lui Lok and is favored and valued by Lui Lok.

Meng Zhao was a man of few words, and he would help his younger brother's friends whenever he could.

Xie Wanzhi thought about it for a long time and finally figured out that he was afraid that he really couldn't do anything to Xie Jun.

In fact, it doesn’t matter if Xie Jun comes to mind all the time now.

He originally wanted to borrow Xie Jun's Qingsang body to restore his own skills and foundation, so as to try to break through to the level of a celestial being.

If Meng Zhao helps, the so-called Qingsang body with unknown effects will become insignificant! (End of this chapter)
