Chapter 235: Whatever you ask, you get the answer
"Tell the truth right now, or even if you are gone, I will expose your identity on the big screen in the city center. Your family will probably lose face at that time."
I really don't know you, but I don't believe that no one in this world knows you.
Zhang Yang's words made the dying man in black so angry that he spat out blood again.
His eyes gradually dimmed, and Zhang Yang thought he was about to die. However, at this moment, the man in black raised his hand with difficulty and pointed to the depths of the forest. They moved in that direction.
After saying this, the man in black died. Hearing his last words, Zhang Yang thought about it carefully.
After searching the man in black, they found nothing but a jade pendant. There was no pattern on the jade pendant, only the word "evil" written in large letters.
After looking at it for a while, Zhang Yang put the jade pendant in his arms and followed the direction pointed by the man in black. The little golden monkey sniffed the smell and kept guiding him.
After another half day, Zhang Yang finally caught up with the group of people. However, he did not show up immediately, but hid in the dark and quietly observed them.
Dongjun was still unconscious and was abandoned on the carriage. There were six men in black around the carriage. Zhang Yang wanted to get closer to hear what they were talking about, but he was afraid to disturb them, so he could only stand in the dark and guess their conversation based on their lip movements.
The leading man in black asked, "Why hasn't Mr. Zhang come back yet? Did something unexpected happen?"
Another man in black responded, "That shouldn't be the case. Elder Zhang is already a master. Even if he meets a top master, he can still escape successfully even if he can't defeat him. Maybe he was delayed by something. Let's wait for him."
The leader in black nodded helplessly. After another quarter of an hour, the leader stood up and said, "We can't wait any longer, otherwise it will delay the master's important matter. We will set off immediately and mark the way along the way. If he is really okay, he will follow the marks and catch up."
The others nodded and drove the carriage off. Zhang Yang quietly followed behind the carriage, ready to find out where they were going.
Two days later, the man in black brought Dongjun to the destination. It was a valley hidden in the hinterland of the mountains. Unlike other places, there were various loft buildings here, and it was obvious that there were many people. Zhang Yang watched them quietly walk into the valley, but he could not follow.
There was only one entrance to the valley, guarded by more than 20 people, all of whom were highly skilled in martial arts. Zhang Yang left the entrance and went around the edge of the valley.
He planned to find another path, and encountered at least four or five waves of guards on the way. Zhang Yang avoided them from a distance and came to the back of the valley. There was no entrance here, and perhaps the original entrance had been closed.
The traces on the ground vaguely revealed a path, but the valley was covered with mud and full of trees, and it was impossible to tell that it was a passage. It seemed that the owner of the valley had completely blocked the road for safety reasons.
After hundreds of years, Zhang Yang searched in vain and had no choice but to return to the entrance of the valley to continue observing the movements inside.
In the center of the valley, in a magnificent palace, several men in black who were escorting Dong Jun were kneeling in front of a mysterious man. The man was wearing a large red cloak that concealed his figure, a devil mask on his head, and was sitting on a throne.
"Have you brought her back? Where are the elders? Why didn't they come with you?" The leader in black explained, "After taking Dongjun away, Zhang Lao realized that someone was following us halfway. He asked us to go ahead and he stayed behind to deal with the enemy. We waited in front for a long time, but he didn't come back. We had to go back first. The man wearing the devil mask nodded slightly.
He said to them, "You have done a good job in carrying out the mission this time. Go find the elders to claim your rewards! As for Dongjun, lock him up in the dungeon first. He is our bargaining chip in the negotiation with the Yin-Yang family, and he cannot be harmed in any way. As for his injuries, arrange for someone to go down and treat him. Just make sure he survives."
The man in black took the order and withdrew. The owner of the devil mask on the throne said to the corner: "Grand Elder, you should pay close attention to Dongjun these days. Elder Zhang hasn't come back yet, and I always feel that things are not that simple. Keep an eye on Dongjun and don't let him have any accidents. He is very important to us."
A man in black walked out from the shadows in the corner. He was wearing a mask like the one on the throne. The difference was that the one on the throne was wearing a devil mask, while this man was wearing a god mask. The Great Elder said to the man on the throne, "Palace Master, are you worried that someone is following us? Are you going to rescue Dongjun?" The man in the devil mask nodded.
Outside the valley, Zhang Yang waited for the right moment. A man in black left the patrol team and came to the stream outside the valley. Zhang Yang followed him and saw the man in black looking around. After confirming that there was no one, he fished out a box from the water.
He opened the box and found a bottle inside. The man poured out a pill and swallowed it. Just as he was about to close the box, Zhang Yang quickly appeared behind him.
The sword of immortality was already against his neck. "Don't make a sound. Answer whatever you ask. Don't look back."
The man in black was obviously frightened, but in order to save his life, he nodded slowly.
"Who are you? And where is this place? Tell me clearly and I will let you live. Otherwise, you and your secret will go to hell together."
The man in black said in a trembling voice, "I don't know where this place is. I'm just a low-level disciple. I only know that we have eight elders and a hall master who wears a demon mask. We all call him Master. We usually stay in the valley and only leave when we are on a mission. As for other things..."
