He Rui dared not hide anything again and revealed the truth.

"I, I was originally a disciple of the Chasing Moon Alliance. Ten years ago, under orders, I went undercover using the name He Rui into the Flying Fox Sect, killed the real He Rui, and took his identity step by step to become the Hall Master of the Flying Fox Sect. The purpose was to obtain the Flying Fox Token."

"However, I also had personal motives. The order given to me was to seize the Flying Fox Token, but life within the Chasing Moon Alliance was too harsh, with frequent killings. As I stayed outside for long, I became obsessed with power and wanted to collaborate with Feng Tiangang to seize the power of the Flying Fox Sect as well, to enjoy wealth and prestige."

"Today's matters have nothing to do with the headquarters; I acted on my own accord."

"I see."

Zhang Xiaoshan understood and said that the mighty Chasing Moon Alliance would hardly be interested in a mere Flying Fox Sect.

The two weren't even at the same level.

"But, but isn't the Flying Fox Token just the Sect Leader's symbol of the Flying Fox Sect? What does the Chasing Moon Alliance want with it?"

"I, I don't know either."

He Rui shook his head, and Zhang Xiaoshan's gaze became fierce immediately. He Rui trembled in fear, worried that Zhang Xiaoshan's flying sword might slice his flesh, hurriedly explaining.

"I, I truly don't know. The Chasing Moon Alliance has a hierarchical structure; I'm just an ordinary outer disciple. How could I know the top's intentions?"

Zhang Xiaoshan pondered for a moment, agreeing.

Then he asked again.

"You said you were just an outer disciple, so do you know the structure of the Chasing Moon Alliance?"

He Rui hesitated, seemingly unwilling to reveal.

But upon meeting Zhang Xiaoshan's indifferent gaze, he shivered, hastily explaining.

"I, I know a little."

"We at the Chasing Moon Alliance rarely recruit outsiders, unless they are extremely powerful. Most members are orphans trained from a young age."

"From a young age, they're brought to live in the Chasing Moon Alliance's training base. The bases are located in various mountainous regions and are frequently changed; a base is used for less than five years. The members don't have real names, only numbers. No one knows anyone's background. Every five years, when a base is replaced, it has about a hundred disciples; they kill each other, leaving only ten who can proceed to a higher-level base for cultivation."

"So cruel, isn't this raising Gu?"

Zhang Xiaoshan sighed.

He Rui breathed a sigh and said

"It's pretty much like raising Gu. The Chasing Moon Alliance doesn't keep idlers or waste."

"Those disciples are the lowliest outer disciples. Cultivate to Qi Condensation Realm before thirty, and they can become inner disciples. If they can't achieve Qi Condensation, they get killed, meaning the true members of the Chasing Moon Alliance are at least at Qi Condensation Realm. At this point, they are assigned to various branches."

"Branches?" Zhang Xiaoshan found it even more interesting.

He Rui said.

"The organizational structure of the Chasing Moon Alliance is quite simple."

"At the top is naturally the Alliance Hierarch. Our Alliance Hierarch bears the revered title of Moon God, extremely mysterious. It is said that even the leaders of the major branches find it difficult to meet them. Internal affairs of the alliance are presided over by our Vice Alliance Hierarch, a strong person at the Human Immortal Realm. Below the Vice Alliance Hierarch are the five elders, each managing a branch, and they are genuine Refining God experts."

"Below the five elders are eighteen Moon Envoys, all at Qi Transformation Peak. The leader, the First Moon Envoy, is said to have also reached the Refining God Realm."

"Further down, Qi Transformation Martial Artists should number over three hundred, and those above Qi Condensation Realm should be around a thousand..."

Listening to He Rui's explanation, Zhang Xiaoshan was inwardly shocked.

Goodness, this lineup, in modern civilization, aside from a few strong countries, could likely sweep through, right?

"Then, where is your headquarters?"

He Rui shook his head.

"I don't know. Entry into the internal organization is led by designated people. We had our five senses sealed and knew nothing."

"Moreover, when I was dispatched out, I had just become an inner circle disciple, part of the Northern Branch Alliance, so I had no qualification to access the headquarters..."

Zhang Xiaoshan realized.

Indeed, the Chasing Moon Alliance was exceptionally mysterious and powerful.

If that's the case, their determination to seize the Flying Fox Token seems even more bizarre.

Just a token, is it worth their elaborate efforts?

With the power of the Chasing Moon Alliance, let alone the Vice Alliance Hierarch and five Elders taking action, just sending two Moon Envoys would suffice to annihilate the Hu family and forcibly seize the Flying Fox Token.

Then why don't they do this, but secretively send someone to infiltrate the Flying Fox Sect?

There's only one reason, they don't want to draw attention, aiming to mask their true purpose, avoiding its exposure.

"It seems the Flying Fox Token conceals a profound secret."

Zhang Xiaoshan had already made his decision.

Just at the fleeting moment when Zhang Xiaoshan was lost in thought.

"Kid, die now."

In He Rui's mouth appeared a pill he bit and crushed.

Instantly, He Rui's body swelled again, especially as the white moon tattoo on his chest radiated brightly.

It seemed about to explode.

"Kid, let's perish together."

He Rui laughed manically.
