Chapter 1312: Rebel Camp
Zhang Yi was greatly puzzled in his heart, but the facts were right before his eyes, and he couldn't not believe them even if he wanted to.
He carefully observed the giant gate from afar; it seed he could even feel a sinister, oppressive aura seeping out through the cracks in the door.
Zhang Yi couldn't help but shiver and decided to leave.
But by chance, he discovered sothing interesting on the bluestone gate.
The door panels were carved with scenes of ancient warfare, so there were many uneven areas.
At first, Zhang Yi hadn't noticed this.
But upon closer inspection this ti, he saw the details.
So areas were clearly deliberately carved indentations, seemingly ant for placing keys.
He examined carefully and found four such places on the entire gate.
"Four indentations, four keys. Are these what the four great chieftain families have inherited?"
Zhang Yi suddenly understood everything at this mont.
No wonder Pagyi Gesang said that only by joining forces with the four great families could the gate of the Demon Kingdom be opened.
"So that's how it is, that's how it is!"
Zhang Yi's mind was now clear about so things.
No wonder Pagyi Gesang wasn't worried at all about Zhang Yi leaving them behind and acting on his own.
Without the help of the four great chieftain families, no one else could enter the world behind the bluestone gate.
Therefore, those superhumans who ca from outside the region also had to cooperate with the local chieftains.
After seeing everything, Zhang Yi turned and left.
Everything would have to wait until the Prayer Festival ended a few days later to get an answer.
...
When Zhang Yi returned ho, he told his companions about what he had discovered at the Demon Kingdom Gate.
Liang Yue walked over, her face wearing an expression that seed hesitant to speak.
"Zhang Yi, there's sothing I have to tell you."
Seeing Liang Yue's strange deanor, Zhang Yi thought for a mont and asked, "Did the resistance army contact you?"
Liang Yue was very easy to read; most of the ti, if she had sothing on her mind, it would show on her face.
So to conceal her inner thoughts, she always maintained the image of an ice-cold beauty when facing outsiders, hardly showing any expression.
Liang Yue's face flushed red instantly; she hadn't expected herself to be so easy to guess.
She nodded, "Yes, that's right."
Just today, the resistance army cadre Drolma finally contacted Liang Yue.
Previously, when Zhang Yi had saved them, Drolma had asked for Liang Yue's contact information, saying she would contact Liang Yue if needed.
Zhang Yi had told Liang Yue to talk with them back then, as there might be unexpected gains.
Sure enough, they had co knocking.
"Oh? What do they want?"
Zhang Yi smiled and sat down on the sofa. Yang Siya quickly brought over a cup of steaming hot milk tea.
Zhang Yi drank the milk tea while listening to Liang Yue's report.
Liang Yue cautiously looked around.
Although, given their strength, it was impossible for anyone to be spying nearby, she was still very careful.
Liang Yue said, "She wants to invite over for a talk. She wasn't very clear about what exactly. But I suspect it's related to the Prayer Festival being held in a few days."
Yang Xinxin said calmly, "The Prayer Festival is held once a year and is the most important festival in the Snowy Plateau Region. It's also related to the opening of the underground Demon Kingdom."
"If I were the resistance army, I definitely wouldn't miss causing trouble at such a ti either."
Zhang Yi raised an eyebrow, "But didn't they say the Prayer Festival is especially sacred to the esoteric sect? That even the two warring sides would cease fighting during this ti?"
Yang Xinxin smiled, "That was before, this is now. People nowadays aren't so particular about rules."
Ceasing fire during warti was possible because the outco was undecided, and it wasn't a life-or-death crisis.
Otherwise, just look, who would sacrifice their own territory for a religious festival?
Zhang Yi looked at Liang Yue, "Where did they arrange to et you?"
The resistance army people were very cautious, which was understandable, because once their whereabouts were discovered, they would definitely face extermination by the four great chieftain families.
People are always like this; when there's no external enemy, they fight fiercely among themselves.
But when there is an external enemy, they can quickly unite against it.
The resistance army wants to uproot the foundation of the four great families, so of course they cannot tolerate it.
Liang Yue said, "They said they would notify of the eting location tomorrow and invite to go et them. However, they only invited and Mu Yan."
Zhang Yi laughed, "What they say doesn't count."
He slapped his thigh, "Tomorrow, we're all going! I also want to see what kind of people those guys are."
Zhang Yi never simply categorized others as good or bad people.
In his eyes, there were only people who were good to him and people who weren't.
Therefore, the resistance army didn't necessarily represent justice.
If those people had no value to him, he wouldn't have anything to do with them.
Liang Yue nodded.
Ti ca to the next day. Liang Yue arrived at a location in the vast snowy mountains at the agreed ti.
Zhang Yi and the others all ca, but they were hidden inside Mu Yan's Shadow Space.
The current Shadow Space had already been transford by the energetic won at ho into a magnificent castle.
The house was built by Lu Keran; the furniture ca from major shopping malls in Tianhai City, all top-tier luxury goods.
Besides accommodation, they had even developed a fishing pond and flower beds here.
While Zhang Yi was busy outside, they could leisurely fish by the flower beds or have afternoon tea.
Life couldn't be more comfortable.
Even Zhang Yi sighed, saying he wanted to swap lives with them.
Liang Yue waited at the agreed location for a long ti. When the appointed ti arrived, she received another ssage.
Drolma notified her to proceed to the next location.
This was expected; doing so was necessary for caution's sake.
Liang Yue patiently followed Drolma's instructions and went to the next area.
Just like that, three tis in a row, they changed locations three tis.
When they appeared again, they were already in a remote, desolate mountain wilderness.
Liang Yue finally saw Drolma.
She was riding a giant dire wolf, followed by a pack of thick-furred black-backed wild wolves.
Through the imaging device Liang Yue carried, Zhang Yi could see everything she saw.
Only then did he personally see that female cadre of the resistance army.
Her equipnt wasn't particularly sophisticated, but she had a decent combat suit. Her hair was tied into braids, and she had a black alloy whip at her waist.
Seeing Liang Yue, Drolma's eyes lit up. She leaped down from the dire wolf, ca before Liang Yue, and stopped a few ters away.
"Benefactor, thank you for truly coming here to see !"
Drolma placed her right hand on her left chest and gave a deep bow.
Liang Yue observed her surroundings but didn't find anyone else present.
Drolma said, "I ca alone today. Please don't be suspicious."
Liang Yue smiled, "You ca alone because you were also afraid of risks, right?"
