After all, at worst it would only cost him a bit of face, and what did that matter for the sake of a single-door disciple of the Free Gate lineage?
None of it mattered in the grand scheme of things.
And once he took action, who would dare spread rumors?
Liang Sheng was unaware of the Zi Zai independent cultivator’s current thoughts; he had made more preparations and had almost everything in the Immortal City under his control.
Before he became a disciple of the Zi Zai independent cultivator, Liang Sheng had some concerns because he couldn’t get a read on the Zi Zai independent cultivator, who was way out of his league.
But now that even the Zi Zai independent cultivator had become an ally, it was extremely difficult for any accidents to occur in Liang Sheng’s plan.
Under these circumstances, the Immortal City once again fell into a deceptive calm, and Feng Yuan grew more vigilant, not daring to be the least bit careless.
Several months had passed; no matter how slow-witted the Seeking Truth Lineage was, it must have come to a final decision by now. They must have dispatched people to the Immortal City since he had initiated the Outer Space Plan in advance, and they couldn’t possibly have ignored it.
Feng Yuan had never underestimated the Seeking Truth Lineage; after all, they managed to smoothly leave the East Victory Immortal Dynasty even under such a vast cover-up, which showed they definitely were no ordinary force.
Thus, Feng Yuan appeared relaxed on the surface but was actually quite prudent, especially since the forces of Liang Sheng and the Zhou Family were not under his control.
Of course, what Feng Yuan was really worried about was the person behind the Zhou Family; otherwise, Liang Sheng’s apparent strength was nothing more than that of ants before him.
Nonetheless, Feng Yuan didn’t personally deal with the Zhou Family, but instead relied on the reinforcements sent over by his teacher from the Capital City. There was no cause for concern.

Now, Feng Yuan wanted to completely take care of the Seeking-Truth Lineage Cultivators, and if anyone was by his side, they would hear him mutter to himself.
“Come, you are my means to advance in the eyes of the higher-ups in the Capital City. You must not disappoint me!”
…
Under the deceiving calm veil of the Immortal City, the hidden currents roiled.
At this time, Pei Linyu finally decided that, today, he would gather all hidden Seeking Truth Lineage cultivators in the Immortal City.
Of course, Pei Linyu had not given up on the Zhou Family either. In the last few days, they had also discovered that the Zhou Family’s attitude had loosened somewhat and was no longer as firm in their rejection as they had been before.
This was a promising sign.
In Pei Linyu’s heart, he couldn’t help but feel emotional. As long as they were descendants of the Seeking Truth Lineage, even if they were momentarily deceived, eventually they would see the light.
Under these circumstances, Pei Linyu finally decided to gather the Seeking Truth Lineage cultivators first, because the reinforcements led by the Soul Emergence power Elder were about to arrive in the Immortal City.
This time, the Elder had made his stance clear: They had a clear goal for the Immortal City and would do everything possible to compete for it.
The emergence of the Longevity Immortal City and the Outer Beast Marsh bolstered their confidence in the Seeking Truth Lineage’s return to the East Victory Immortal Dynasty.
The existence of the Wilderness Beast Marsh was, in essence, a slim chance left to the Seeking Truth Lineage by Heaven and Earth. Though Heaven and Earth were unkind, treating all beings as nothing more than fodder, they always left a sliver of hope.
For example, after the ancient cultivation catastrophe, Heaven and Earth did not cut off every escape route. Otherwise, how could modern cultivation have possibly revived?
After all, modern cultivation was nothing more than a new cultivation pattern born from the self-persevering efforts of the ancient cultivators through generations.
Since the Beast Marsh could be connected to the Longevity Immortal City, the Seeking Truth Lineage knew that there were definitely hidden traps inside, but they didn’t want to miss such an opportunity.
They really didn’t want to live a life despised by Heaven and Earth anymore. Who wouldn’t want to live uprightly under Heaven and Earth and cultivate in peace?
That’s why Pei Linyu decided to so decisively prepare to gather all the people. Of course, this was also a way to probe the City Lord Mansion.
However, they were staking their own lives, luring with their lives. If they could figure out the City Lord Mansion’s plan before the Soul Emergence power reinforcements arrived by probing before everything happened, it would be worth dying for.
“Senior Brother Pei…”
Right now, Chen Chen’s voice was choked with emotion, because tonight he was arranged by Pei Linyu to stay in the rear, leaving the gathering plan to Pei Linyu alone.
Seeing Chen Chen’s expression, Pei Linyu couldn’t help but laugh freely, “Junior brother, don’t be like this. We’re simply divided by our tasks, and although you seem to be safer than me, you’ll be more distressed. I’m sorry for that.”
Pei Linyu’s words were not meant to comfort Chen Chen, but to let him know that what he had to do was hide underground, which might even require him to watch sympathizers die. Naturally, this required stronger mental preparation.
Chen Chen didn’t say anything upon hearing this. In truth, he wanted to fight alongside Pei Linyu, but Pei Linyu gave him a resounding pat on the shoulder.
“Junior brother, don’t be silly. In recent times, the Zhou Family’s word has already loosened a bit. After you and I part ways today, you must head to the Zhou Family.”
After that, try not to leave the Zhou Family; if they don’t reject you, it means we have one more backup plan.
With this in place, even if there’s a problem on my side tonight, you’ll be the assurance before the Elder reinforcements arrive.
So, Junior brother, don’t have any emotions about what we’re doing. There is no difference between light and heavy in what we do – it’s all just effort toward the dawn.”
Hearing this, Chen Chen’s eyes were filled with tears, “Senior brother, don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you. Even if I die, I’ll die in the Zhou Family.”
Chen Chen then left without looking back, heading directly to the Zhou Family as he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to resist wanting to fight side by side with Pei Linyu.
As for how Pei Linyu would fare tonight, he didn’t dare think too much about it; the only hope in his heart was that everything would go smoothly for his senior brother.
At this time, Pei Linyu looked at the City Lord Mansion, his eyes even showing a hint of provocation, before heading straight for the appointment location.
