Looking at Xie Lianhuan's eyes, Zhang Tian knew that this guy must also know something.
Zhang Tian was not unfamiliar with Maoshan, after all, many things in his past life, ghost movies, spells, etc., all revolved around Maoshan.
However, Zhang Tian had never been to Maoshan so far, and the information he got from Daoist Yimei about Maoshan was not much.
At this moment, the curse on Xie Yuchen had been eliminated by Zhang Tian, and Zhang Tian had time to ask some questions.
"It seems that Patriarch Xie knows quite a bit about Maoshan."
Zhang Tian said with a smile.
Xie Lianhuan waved his hand in shame.
"I don't know much. I met a Taoist priest who walked in the Jianghu before, and I learned about Maoshan from him."
"However, I was half-believing what he said back then and didn't take it seriously."
Xie Lianhuan gave a wry smile.
The Taoist priest back then spoke of using thousands of spells, talismans, and what not of ghosts and demons. No decent person would believe it.
But when he saw what Zhang Tian used now, and his methods, he suddenly understood.
So that was how the opportunity was missed.
Perhaps, what the other party said was true, it was just that he was too ignorant back then.
"Oh? Is that so? Does Patriarch Xie know who that Taoist priest was?"
Zhang Tian was very curious that Xie Lianhuan could meet other disciples of Maoshan.
Zhang Tian calculated that he had only met Daoist Yimei, the only disciple of Maoshan.
"I don't know about that, but I saw a pattern like a red-crowned crane on his Taoist robe."
"That was many years ago, during the war."
Xie Lianhuan thought for a moment and said.
He also felt a little regretful. If he had seized that opportunity back then, he might not have been suppressed by Zhang Tian now.
Zhang Tian's eyes lit up even more when he heard this.
A pattern of a red-crowned crane on his person, it was very likely to be Daoist Yimei's senior brother, Daoist Simu, but the probability was still very small.
Moreover, Daoist Yimei appearing here was already unusual. Now, with Daoist Simu as well, his family would be too lively.
"Do you remember what he looked like?"
"I suspect he is a senior brother from my sect."
Zhang Tian asked, even giving an explanation.
After Zhang Tian finished speaking, Xie Lianhuan thought carefully.
"He looked quite猥琐, wore glasses, like an old man, and was meticulous when calculating accounts."
Xie Lianhuan told everything he knew.
Well, he was completely exposed. Zhang Tian guessed it was him.
Daoist Simu and Daoist Yimei were almost equally stubborn. If they found each other, it would be very troublesome.
"Do you know where he went?"
Before Zhang Tian could speak, Hu Bayi asked from the side.
After Hu Bayi finished asking, Zhang Tian smacked his forehead.
He didn't want to know in the first place, but now he was forced to know.
"It was during the War of Resistance. That Taoist priest saw countless killings and looting. He heard that he was going to seek revenge, but I'm not sure if it's true."
Xie Lianhuan finished speaking, and it was obvious that he had told everything he knew.
"Revenge?"
Zhang Tian suddenly had a bad premonition.
"I must be overthinking it."
Zhang Tian reassured himself, then changed the subject.
"Alright, Young Master Xie's curse has been removed by me. Due to the long duration of the curse and Young Master Xie's excessive consumption, he may need a period of rest."
Zhang Tian said, and then stood up.
At this moment, Xie Yuchen quickly sat up from the bed.
"Thank you, Young Master Zhang."
"If you ever need me, I, Xie Yuchen, will do my best."
Xie Yuchen said very seriously, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
Zhang Tian just nodded slightly, not saying much.
"Take care of your injuries. In that case, Patriarch Xie, we'll be leaving now."
Zhang Tian said, and then bade farewell to Xie Lianhuan.
"Young Master Zhang, since you're here, why not have a meal here? We're all family."
Er Yuehong said softly from the side, seemingly trying to persuade him to stay.
Zhang Tian waved his hand slightly, not intending to stay for a meal at the Xie family's.
He wanted to go back and ask if Daoist Yimei really had a junior brother!
"I won't stay. We'll have plenty of time to interact in the future. Alright, Old Hu, let's go back."
Zhang Tian said, and led Hu Bayi out of Xie Yuchen's room.
The Xie family was quite useful to Zhang Tian.
He was able to manage such a large family, so he must have his own methods. Zhang Tian valued talent.
Xie Lianhuan and the others followed behind Zhang Tian, clearly seeing him off.
Soon, outside the Xie family.
"Sect Master Zhang, please go slowly."
Xie Lianhuan said, and at this moment, he truly acknowledged Zhang Tian as the leader of the Nine Gates.
Zhang Tian smiled lightly.
Then he waved his hand behind him, and soon, Zhang Tian and Hu Bayi's figures grew farther and farther away, until they disappeared.
Only after the two of them disappeared did Xie Lianhuan and the other slowly turn around.
"I was wrong about this matter. This kid Zhang Tian is very good, neither servile nor overbearing, and he knows how to leave a way out for others."
Xie Lianhuan said, giving Zhang Tian a very high evaluation.
Er Yuehong nodded.
"He is the most formidable young man I have ever met, without exception. Moreover, his destiny is very strong, not something ordinary people can look down upon."
"However, thanks to him this time, otherwise, we would have been unable to break the curse on Yuhua."
Er Yuehong said, and Xie Lianhuan also nodded.
"After this, our Xie family has truly become a member of the Nine Gates."
Xie Lianhuan was not one to procrastinate.
He would integrate immediately and not play word games.
After Xie Lianhuan finished speaking, Er Yuehong didn't say much. His relationship with the Xie family was limited to that of master and disciple. He couldn't interfere in family decisions.
At this time, on Zhang Tian's side.
"Boss, why do I feel like Patriarch Xie has a lot of opinions about us?"
Hu Bayi frowned slightly.
They had helped the Xie family so much, yet they didn't appreciate it?
"After all, we want to truly control them, so naturally, they won't have a good attitude."
"This is normal. Although they have joined our Nine Gates, they haven't truly accepted it in their hearts. Therefore, what I did today was to make them truly join."
Zhang Tian said indifferently.
After all, no one would give their entire family for a promise.
If there were, they were either crazy or stupid.
"We helped Young Master Xie, so the Xie family should be fully integrated now, right?"
Hu Bayi said softly.
He didn't understand human relationships and social affairs very well.
If you recall, Hu Bayi dealt with common people as an educated youth in his early years, and later as a soldier, he had no opportunity to interact with such insidious people.
"No, if it concerns the family, they will refuse without hesitation."
"However, it's already very good that things have progressed to this point."
"At least the Xie family can work for us now."
Zhang Tian said, stretched lazily, and headed towards Longteng Mountain.
He wanted to ask Daoist Yimei, where exactly was Maoshan!
