Chapter 686: Chapter 545 Overwhelming Numbers_1
In such a situation, even if they encountered an attack from a Golden Elixir Master, the Divine Thunder Array would be enough to hold it off, allowing He Song and the other two time to react.
Not to mention merely blocking a Golden Elixir Master from eavesdropping.
For such a minor matter, once the Divine Thunder Array was deployed, it would naturally suffice.
Hearing Meng Guan’s words,
a sense of realization flashed through Wei Fan’s eyes.
No wonder.
No wonder Meng Guan had previously said he wanted to step out for a walk.
It turned out that Meng Guan’s previous outing was for the purpose of purchasing the array that had just been deployed.
Wei Fan was not versed in Array Skills.
He also couldn’t discern what sort of array Meng Guan had laid out.
Therefore, hearing Meng Guan’s words, he nodded repeatedly, and a tint of vigilance appeared in his eyes.
Since Meng Guan said there was something odd about this place,
it was better to err on the side of caution.
Otherwise,
recalling the various strange incidents he and Meng Guan had encountered during their travels, the vigilance in Wei Fan’s eyes suddenly intensified.
He suddenly remembered,
that every time he had traveled with Meng Guan, Meng Guan would invariably encounter certain incidents.
And though Meng Guan would personally resolve these incidents,
the process was always fraught with difficulties, not suitable to be told to others.
Anyway,
Wei Fan absolutely did not want to experience more of those kinds of events.
Meng Guan and Wei Fan both heightened their guard.
But,
even after hearing what Meng Guan said and noticing the caution between the brows of both Meng Guan and Wei Fan,
He Song did not rush to speak.
Instead, he waited until the two had fallen silent before he spoke up,
“To sense a trace of a familiar aura, and yet have it completely concealed when you wish to investigate further,
“It seems that this person’s identity and strength must be extraordinary, at least that of an Early Jindan Stage cultivator.”
“However, no matter whether this person is from another sect or a Demonic Cultivator from the Locking God Sect,
“Since they are in the Purple Light Pavilion and their behavior is suspicious, possibly that of a Demon Cultivator, all you two need to do from now on is watch.”
“I have been here for over two months already.”
“In Biyue Prefecture, I happen to know several Golden Elixir Masters, including the Master Guardian of this place, whom I can seek out at any time.”
“No matter what purpose this person has for being here, just bring the Master Guardian to this place.”
“As long as the person cannot withstand the siege of several Golden Elixir Masters, they will not be able to stir up any troubles.”
“With the Master Guardian intervening, why should we personally investigate this matter?”
As thoughts flickered through his mind, He Song ultimately did not choose to rely solely on his power to resolve the situation.
Instead, he directly voiced his own considerations.
In the face of known troubles,
He Song naturally would not choose to go solo, using one’s own strength to investigate the true issues here.
Rather, he prepared to rely on the help of other Golden Elixir Masters within Biyue Prefecture to achieve his goal.
After all,
based on He Song’s understanding of Meng Guan,
almost everywhere Meng Guan went, he would stir up a great deal of trouble.
This was something He Song and the other two had confirmed when they met at Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.
Even though Meng Guan eventually resolved all these matters smoothly, there were often complications involved.
For instance, if the familiar aura Meng Guan sensed turned out to be a cultivator from the Sun Faction on a secret mission,
He Song speculated that the cultivator would retaliate as Meng Guan started the investigation.
Though it might later turn out to be a misunderstanding,
the time, effort, and resources spent during the incident would be wasted.
Instead of groping in the dark, wasting time, effort, and resources for the truth,
it was better to confront the issue directly with force to “interrogate” the truth out.
In this way,
while it might cause panic among the cultivators in Biyue Prefecture,
since a Golden Elixir Master would be involved, and assuming the person was indeed a cultivator from the Sun Faction on a secret mission, as He Song surmised, there would be no risk of a leak.
As fellow Sun Faction cultivators, knowing that it was all a misunderstanding, they would not make a big fuss or spread the word.
With He Song stepping in, the fact that Meng Guan and Wei Fan were there would also be completely concealed,
ensuring that no one else would guess Meng Guan and Wei Fan were present.
Consequently, they would not have to worry about their appearance attracting the attention of the Locking God Cultivators.
In such a scenario, directly confronting the issue with force to “interrogate” the truth naturally became the preferred option.
Of course,
if the cultivator Meng Guan sensed was actually from the Locking God Sect and not the Sun Faction,
then He Song’s approach of confronting directly with force would be more practical than if He Song and the others were to investigate slowly.
Because during the investigation, the Locking God Cultivator would not remain like a corpse and allow He Song to investigate them without resistance.
The question of whether He Song and his group might face retaliation during their investigation had a definite affirmative answer.
