One person: Twelve talismans, starting by beating up the old Celestial Master.

"I said, we'll just give that person a beating, and that'll settle our score."

"This madwoman attacked me right off the bat. Does she really think I wouldn't dare kill you all?"

Having said that, Zhang Lingfeng, in his white-haired monkey form, squeaked twice, and the entire monkey troop immediately assumed an attack stance, ready to assault them.

Mei Jinfeng was about to ask them if they were descendants of those little monkeys from back then, but she was so frightened by the two large monkeys baring their teeth that she took several steps back, only to be protected behind Xia Liuqing.

At this moment, tensions were high, and a major battle was imminent.

However, no one was certain.

After all, Feng Baobao is also a formidable fighting force. Don't let her usual brash demeanor fool you; she's quite clever in battle.

Even she was now knocked unconscious by the unfathomably powerful monkey demon before her.

Seeing this, Zhang Chulan sighed softly.

Looks like I can't escape this beating today.

"Come on, if you beat me up, you promise to release Sister Bao'er and let us leave this place."

Hearing this, Zhang Lingfeng's lips curled up slightly, and he nodded.

He then summoned several large golden monkeys in monkey language, telling them that they only needed to give Zhang Chulan a couple of blows later, and there was no need to actually kill or cripple him.

After all, he was just playing a prank; there was no need to actually kill Zhang Chulan.

Whether Zhao Fangxu knew about Zhang Chulan, Feng Baobao, and Wang Zhenqiu's actions was unclear, but Xu San and Xu Si most likely did.

At this moment, several large monkeys surrounded Zhang Chulan and, at Zhang Lingfeng's command, began to beat him with punches and kicks.

Seeing that they had beaten them enough, Zhang Lingfeng signaled again that they could stop.

…………

Watching the large white-haired monkey ride away in the wooden sedan chair, Wang Zhenqiu and Baron exchanged a glance.

"Mr. Barron, did you notice that there was something strangely familiar about that monkey demon just now?"

Upon hearing Wang Zhenqiu's words, Baron nodded.

"Indeed, I also had a strange feeling that when I was facing that monkey just now, it was as if I were facing Master Lingfeng."

Wang Zhenqiu nodded in agreement.

"Yes, I had that same feeling."

"However, that's not very realistic. How could Master Lingfeng suddenly turn into a monkey? I just don't believe it."

At this moment, Wang Zhenqiu tilted his head and looked at Xia Liuqing, who was helping Mei Jinfeng bandage the wounds of Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao.

"Old Xia, what do you think?"

Xia Liuqing shook her head at this.

"Impossible, that white-furred monkey demon was definitely a powerful demon."

"It's probably still a powerful demon capable of contending with True Immortal Lingfeng."

Zhang Chulan, his face bruised and swollen like a pig's head, looked at Feng Baobao, who was still unconscious beside him.

"Once we leave the Qinling Mountains, I plan to report this monkey demon to the company. If we let this terrifying monster grow any further..."

At this point, Mei Jinfeng objected.

"no!"

"You can't hurt it. It might be the only monkey that's survived since the time of the sect leader."

"I absolutely will not allow you to hurt it!"

Seeing Mei Jinfeng's excited expression, Zhang Chulan sighed helplessly.

"But as you've seen, once that monkey leaves the Qinling Mountains, it could cause an extremely serious disaster for the entire society."

Mei Jinfeng, however, remained steadfast in her opinion, and then she looked at Zhang Chulan.

"Zhang Chulan, can't you understand what I'm saying?"

"That monkey demon definitely knows a lot about the sect leader. Don't you want to know the truth about the Jia Shen Rebellion? Maybe that monkey demon can give you the answer."

"If it was killed by someone from the company, how long will it take you to find it at this slow pace?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan's eyes lit up.

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that!"

"Thank you for reminding me, Grandma Jinfeng."

Wang Zhenqiu, standing to the side, glanced at Zhang Chulan, who was talking to Mei Jinfeng, and subtly curled his lips.

Ha ha

Zhang Chulan, it has to be you!

You've been beaten to this state by the monkey demon's henchmen, and you still have the nerve to put on an act in front of us?

Just now you deliberately said you were going to tell the company about the monkey demon to provoke Granny Jin Feng and test her to find out if the monkey demon really lived since the time of Wu Gensheng, right?

Sometimes you're very enigmatic and hard to figure out, but other times you're surprisingly good at guessing what's going on.

What exactly makes you such a complex and conflicted person?

I'm getting more and more curious now!

Once I uncover all your secrets, I'll tell Master Lingfeng!

At that moment, Zhang Chulan turned around and saw Wang Zhenqiu smiling at him.

Zhang Chulan smiled and nodded at him.

But Zhang Chulan's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that, in trying to verify his suspicions, his clumsy acting was noticed by that jerk?

Throughout the journey, Zhang Chulan noticed that Wang Zhenqiu had been intentionally or unintentionally keeping him around.

Through the previous mission to raid Biyou Village, Zhang Chulan realized that Wang Zhenqiu, who seemed like a troublemaker, was actually incredibly meticulous.

Several times, my inner thoughts were seen through by the other party.

For his own safety and Bao'er's safety, he decided to keep a safe distance from Wang Zhenqiu.

He never expected that the other party would follow him again.

That Wang Zhenqiu is really a tough guy!

.........

At this moment, Zhang Lingfeng had already led a group of monkeys through Tongtian Valley and told them about the cultivation methods available in this valley.

A group of monkeys nodded, seemingly understanding.

Zhang Lingfeng neither cared nor concerned whether they could truly achieve enlightenment through the Twenty-Four Heavenly Valleys.

He was just there to keep his promise.

At this moment, Zhang Lingfeng announced to the dozens of monkeys, large and small, that the large monkey from the outer forest would temporarily take over their leadership.

He also indicated that he would come back to visit from time to time.

It's not that I particularly miss them, but rather that I'm afraid some of the monkeys might be resentful and secretly kill the puppet monkey I've chosen.

Once everything was arranged, Zhang Lingfeng bid farewell to the monkey troop and prepared to return.

After all, he had a very important task to do: to expose the scandal of the company's collusion with Quanxing Society!

Chapter 145 Zhou Sheng and Qu Tong's Bet

Yao Xingshe

Sitting on the sofa, Qu Tong looked at the ring on her hand and saw no further replies. Furious, she smashed her water glass on the floor.

Wow!

Shards of glass flew everywhere, slicing across her cheek and leaving a long gash, but she paid no heed, letting the blood trickle down her face.

Qu Tong was very angry

She hadn't been this angry in a long time.

Her subordinates, whom she had arranged to enter the Twenty-Four Heavenly Valley, were killed by Zhang Lingfeng. She knew nothing of what happened afterward, since the ring couldn't be activated after death.

She didn't care whether that bald guy lived or died.

What she wanted was Wugensheng's secret!

Based on information provided by his informant planted within the company's board of directors, Zhang Chulan also traveled to the Twenty-Four Heavenly Valley.

Therefore, it's highly likely that Zhang Lingfeng or Zhang Chulan learned the secret left behind by Wugensheng.

She dislikes the feeling of things slipping out of her control.

Furthermore, the company's informant also advised them to minimize contact with him during this period.

Zhao Fangxu is acting like a madman, frantically investigating Zhang Lingfeng's incident from back then, afraid of being exposed.

Qu Tong can understand this matter.

Since the battle at the amusement park, Zhang Lingfeng has unleashed unprecedented and terrifying combat power, essentially establishing his position as the new pinnacle of the domestic supernatural community, replacing the old Celestial Master Zhang Zhiwei.

Although the company has drastically suppressed the matter and prevented it from gaining further public attention.

However, as the current chairman of the company, Zhao Fangxu certainly needs to prevent the conflict with Zhang Lingfeng from escalating further.

The most effective way to remedy this is to personally intervene and help Zhang Lingfeng find the traitor from back then.

According to his informants, Zhao Fangxu is now making many decisions on his own, without consulting the board of directors.

That means Zhao Fangxu no longer trusts their board of directors.

Currently, the only board member Zhao Fangxu can speak to is Xu Xiang.

However, Xu Xiang was also cured by Zhang Lingfeng and always regarded Zhang Lingfeng as his savior.

Zhang Lingfeng, Zhang Lingfeng, it's still the same Zhang Lingfeng!
