Who let him join the Sword Sect?!

He acted immediately, taking out the Beast Taming Ring he secretly bought in Rising Dragon City behind Li's back. After confirming there was no one around, he gently placed the Beast Taming Ring on the ground.

Then, recalling the method taught by Old Mr. Li, he drove the Golden Core of the Beast Taming Sect, made hand signs, chanted a spell, transformed into a white light, and slipped inside.

The space inside this Beast Taming Ring was very small, with no additional setup.

After Zhang Ze canceled the Formless, he clearly felt that the aura had dissipated inside the Beast Taming Ring and hadn't transmitted outside.

He breathed a sigh of relief, cast a spell for automatic clothing change, and quickly changed out of the unlucky tight-fitting outfit.

However, just as he was about to leave the Beast Taming Ring, he discovered another problem.

That was, Old Mr. Li taught him how to enter, but it seemed he hadn't taught him how to exit...

Moreover, this Beast Taming Ring was an export item sold by the Beast Taming Sect, and although it looked the same on the outside, its functions seemed incomplete.

"Li! Li!"

Due to being too far away, the connection between minds was severed, and Li did not hear Zhang Ze's call.

Moreover, there was also an issue with the space inside this Beast Taming Ring. Due to the cut corners, it lacked several arrays, making it impossible to communicate with the outside, and Little Walnut had no signal here...

"Don't panic, there are more ways than difficulties, Li and Li Yueqi will come to save me."

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Zhang Ze, who had made himself a prisoner, comforted himself.

...

However, no one came to rescue him.

Zhang Ze extricated himself by the next afternoon.

After all, he was somewhat of a semi-genius, and the Beast Taming Ring wasn't so well-constructed that the door couldn't be opened from this side.

He carefully deduced the method for entering the ring taught by Old Mr. Li several times, and then used a half-lockpicking, half-door smashing technique to break open the Beast Taming Ring from the inside.

But as soon as he came out, Zhang Ze awkwardly found himself standing on a table. The pastries on the table were trampled to mush, and the teapot and teacups were kicked to one side.

Li Yueqi was sitting in a chair, looking up at him.

"Explain, please."

"Wait for me to make it up."

"Could you first get off my table?"

"Oh."

Li Yueqi waved a hand, cleaned the table, and brewed a new pot of tea before speaking.

"Go ahead and make it up, I'm listening, but you don't need to tell me how you got lost. I mainly want to know how you managed to lock yourself in."

"I have a top-level Beast Taming Ring from the Beast Taming Sect; show me again, and I'll give it to you."

Li Yueqi flipped her palm, and a finely crafted Beast Taming Dharma Ring appeared in her hand.

Zhang Ze snorted coldly and didn't explain.

The "Zhang's Spring and Autumn Annals" states that when you encounter something difficult to explain, the best solution isn't to explain it, but to change the topic.

"Did you know there was internal treason in your Beast Taming Sect?" Zhang Ze said mysteriously.

Li Yueqi, "?"

As expected, when it came to matters concerning the sect, Li Yueqi became serious.

"Where's the traitor from?"

Li Yueqi was reserved with her words and could be trusted, and she was also indispensable when acting within the Beast Taming Sect. Zhang Ze then told her the details of the matter.

Li Yueqi was just as baffled after hearing it, and she asked the same question Zhang Ze did: "Our Beast Taming Sect doesn't have walls everywhere; if he wants to leave, he can just leave, why would he need someone to assist?"

Zhang Ze spread his hands, "How would I know?"

"Then what are you planning to do?" Although it was her family, Li Yueqi still wanted to hear Zhang Ze's plan, as he was more experienced with such matters.

Zhang Ze, although thinking Yu Dong had issues, had already contemplated a plan during his incarceration, "I plan to..."

Just as he was about to speak, the Black King Order moved slightly.

After taking out the Black King Order, a black light shone on the table, and a few lines of text appeared at once.

This situation only occurred when other communication magical artifacts sent a message to the Black King Order using a Secret Technique.

[Where are you, come quickly, danger]

"Is this how all your spies talk?" Li Yueqi asked.

Zhang Ze shook his head, "No, this method of message transmission has a word limit; it can only be ten words or fewer at a time."

"Since you're supposed to be the contact, why not just ask who he is?" Li Yueqi suggested.

Zhang Ze shook his head, "No, such high-level Dark Agents are undoubtedly very cautious, and they won't reveal their true identity even to their own people."

"I'll test him a bit." After speaking, Zhang Ze closed his eyes, placed his hand on the Black King Order, and transmitted the message.

...

At the foot of the mountain, Li Jue's residence.

With the doors tightly closed, Xia Yan and Li Jue arranged a small array using Spirit Stones in the room, with two Talismans placed one above and one below within the array.

One had already been burned to ash, while another was slowly filling with text.

[Meet within the Beast Taming Sect]

Li Jue and Xia Yan exchanged glances, initially pleased, but then both realized something was amiss.

"Agreed? No, can't agree." Without waiting for Xia Yan to respond, Li Jue dismissed the idea.

"Right, Nameless is cautious. There's no way he would rashly enter a place like the Beast Taming Sect. This should be a test," Xia Yan analyzed.

"Let's stick to the original plan," Li Jue said.

"Okay."

Xia Yan took out the Talisman, blew away the ashes in the array, and placed two new Talismans inside.

...

On the mountain, in Li Yueqi's residence.

"There's a reply." After waiting for a long time, Zhang Ze once again activated the Black King Order to display the message.

[No, meet in Yinhu City]

"What's Yinhu City?" Zhang Ze asked.

"It's a Cultivator City near the Beast Taming Sect, with many sect disciples and Loose Cultivators; it's indeed a good place for a rendezvous," Li Yueqi replied.

Zhang Ze nodded and coolly replied with one word.

[Okay]
