Silence.
The entire hall fell into silence.
If anyone had initially thought that Meng Tian was a “mythological figure” made up by Yun Qingwu intentionally, that thought became invalid when Lin Ji’s head appeared in front of them.
That was because Yun Qingwu would never sacrifice a Godly State Monster to create a “Meng Tian” who was suspected by others.
“It seems like Sagely Battle God Meng Tian is really alive!” After a moment of silence, a voice was heard in the hall. It was the sect leader who spoke earlier on.
“Yes, that’s the only possible explanation!”
“I can’t believe that this Senior is still alive, this is amazing!”
He was affirmed by others around him. The voices of suspicion also completely disappeared.
At this moment, Dao Xin stood up and took two steps towards Wu Yuer before bowing to her.
“Since Sect Leader Wu has met Sagely Battle God Meng Tian before, can you tell me the reason why multiple Meng Tians appeared in the Holy Region?”
“Yes, why are there so many Meng Tians?”
“What’s going on?”
The surrounding people also looked at Wu Yuer with faces of confusion after hearing Dao Xin’s words.
“The reason is very simple, those fake Meng Tians are people I assigned for impersonation.” Wu Yuer took a glance at the surroundings and gave an alluring smile.
“You assigned people to impersonate Meng Tian?”
“Of course, I had already gotten the permission of Sagely Battle God Meng Tian so I had not offended Senior by doing this.”
“Why did you do this, Sect Leader Wu?”
“To get intelligence reports!”
“Intelligence reports?”
“That’s right, our force is currently concentrated in the Ling Xiao Mountain and the disciples who are in charge of spying are extremely careful and often encounter precarious situations. On the other hand, the Monster Race and Demon Race are blatantly plotting points for intelligence reports. If this goes on, we will only find ourselves in an increasingly difficult position,” explained Wu Yuer.
“I see.” Dao Xin nodded.
That was because she had already understood what Wu Yuer meant. Like what Wu Yuer said, the intelligence report was always the primary factor of any battles.
As the saying went, if one knew one’s enemy well enough, one would not meet any problems in the battle.
If one lost in terms of intelligence reports, then even if one won the opponent in terms of power, one could lose the battle due to misjudgment.
Judging from the current situation…
Humankind was not as powerful as the Monster Race and Demon Race. In this case, if they were disadvantaged in terms of intelligence reports, it was extremely unlikely for them to win the battle.
“Sagely Battle God said we can ‘blatantly’ impersonate him, he was fine with dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of Meng Tian,” said Wu Yuer again.
“We can impersonate Meng Tian too?!”
“That’s right. Think about this, if ‘Meng Tian’ is present all over the Holy Region, how can the Monster Race and Demon Race still have any intelligence reports?” Wu Yuer nodded.
“No, they can’t. Hahaha, of course, they can’t because everyone is Meng Tian. Even if they can trace us down, they will be like the blind, right?” The surrounding people understood the intention behind Wu Yuer and Sagely Battle God Meng Tian’s plan.
Turning all the disciples into Meng Tian!
How magnificent was that?
Furthermore, the real Meng Tian is hidden amongst these “Meng Tian”s and the Godly State experts of the four sects in the Holy Region, Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shanshi could also become Meng Tian.
With that, all the disciples of the various sects could walk out of the Ling Xiao Mountain blatantly.
“Good strategy! No wonder he is the Sagely Battle God!” Mu Qingfeng stood up and his initially worried eyes lit up.
“That’s right, we will no longer need to guard here while holding in our emotions. If we pretend to be Meng Tian, we can do whatever we want in the Holy Region.”
“It doesn’t matter even if we are discovered. If we can win, we will fight, if we can’t, we can run!”
“Yes yes yes. Also, we can supervise the actions of the Monster Race and Demon Race anytime because we are ‘Meng Tian’!”
After hearing Mu Qingfeng’s words, the surrounding people were extremely excited. After all, that meant that they were now the ones in control of the situation.
For more than five months, the powerful humans had been stuck in the Ling Xiao Mountain and did not dare to step out of the mountain. They could only send a group of disciples out to gather information.
Although this method conserved the overall power of humankind, some people were already going crazy because they could no longer endure the suffering.
After all, it was not easy for them to live a life that required them to be exposed to the mountain wind every day!
Moreover, on Ling Xiao Mountain, they could not even have fun. The only fun they had in these five months was to make fun of the female disciples.
However, the female disciples were the minority, so the ratio did not match!
“Let’s do this, go and make black face cloths now and sew the word ‘God’ in them. I do not want to stay in this bloody place anymore!” Mo Shanshi’s voice was heard. It was so loud like thunder that the entire hall shook.
The other sect leaders and disciples nodded their heads.
Looking at this scene, Dao Hun’s expression changed. After all, Mo Shanshi was not the one who was in charge of making commands.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Dao Xin shaking his head at him and had no choice but to swallow his words.
However, Dao Hun was after all the leader of the sect and understood why Dao Xin did that. The situation now could not be stopped by a single person.
To put it frankly, he got the position of the Alliance Leader forcefully with the unconcluded battle on the Heaven Zen Mountain.
There were not many people who genuinely approved of him!
If he could not stop them, what else could he do?
Dao Hun was not stupid. After enduring this grievance, he stood up slowly from his chair and looked around before clearing his throat.
“Cough cough!”
Dao Hun thought that since he was the Alliance Leader of the Human Alliance, other people should remain silent when he was speaking.
However, Dao Hun was too naive. Some things did not act out as he thought they would be.
The hall was still extremely rowdy as excitement filled the air. The voices of debate echoed throughout the hall and nobody heard Dao Hun.
That was rather awkward.
“Sagely Battle God Meng Tian?! He had already taken my position as the Alliance Leader before he even reached the Ling Xiao Mountain?” Dao Hun gritted his teeth.
In order to get his position as the Alliance Leader of the Human Alliance, he had put in so much effort.
Moreover, after getting his position as the Alliance Leader, he continuously tried to find ways to establish his credibility in order to get his followers to trust him. He even went on to distribute the medicinal pills made from the Yin Yang Hall to other sect leaders and disciples in order to secure his position as the Alliance Leader.
Yet now?
Meng Tian, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, had already overpowered him without even showing his face or reaching the Ling Xiao Mountain.
“Detestable!” Dao Hun clenched his fists.
Meanwhile, the sect leaders and disciples had reached a conclusion very quickly. Every sect sent some female disciples to make the black face cloths.
“Alliance Leader Dao, we are in a rush, goodbye!”
“Yes, we need to rush to make the black face cloths. We hope to make sufficient cloths for everyone in a day’s time.”
After the sect leaders finished discussing, they left to make the necessary preparation.
Meanwhile, Dao Hun raised his arm helplessly and tried his best to squeeze out a friendly smile. “Hmm, thanks for your hard work, everyone!”
…
At midnight ten days later…
Stars were twinkling in the night sky and gazing at the tall mountain and the occasional roars of beasts and chirps of birds in the forest.
The night ought to be silent.
However, the Sword Peak of the Heaven Dao Pavilion could not quieten down. Even though it was already midnight, the lights were still lit and shadows could be seen moving around.
“Report, bad news, we discovered Meng Tian five miles away in the East. Since it is dark, we can only guess that there are about… about 300 men!”
“300 Meng Tians?!” The expression of the Monster King, who was standing on the Sword Peak with a red light flashing in his eyes, changed immediately.
300 Meng Tians?
What bullshit?!
“Yes… yes!” The spy who saw that said with affirmation.
“What the f*ck, I had already been embarrassed the previous time when a fake Meng Tian appeared. Now, there are so many f*cking Meng Tians?!” The Monster King cursed.
“Sir, Young Lord had sent a letter five days ago that she would reach the Heaven Dao Pavilion latest by noon. What should we do with all these Meng Tians?” One of the Demons who was standing beside the Monster King frowned.
“What should we do? Young Empress had instructed us to not be rash when we see Meng Tian. Now that there are 300 Meng Tians, what do you want me to do?” The Monster King’s face was very black.
“Report… Urgent report!”
“What’s the matter again? Speak!”
“In the South… I spotted Meng Tian, at least 500 of them, all of them were masked with a black face cloth sewn with the word ‘God’!”
“What the f*ck? Say again?!” The Monster King raged after being stunned for a moment.
“Sir… sir, I spotted… spotted at least 500 Meng Tians six miles away in the South direction!” replied the spy who had sweat all over his forehead.
“Report, report… Urgent report… I spotted about 400 Meng Tians in the West!”
“Report… The North, there is a huge number of Meng Tians charging towards us from the North. There is at least… at least 1000… 1000 Meng Tians…”
“…”
