Chapter 558: How Dare You Stop Me?....
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Watching the Blackheaven Sect disciples leave, Jiang Hao and the others sighed, then returned to their respective positions.
A while ago, they were at odds with each other, and today they came for a friendly exchange.
The Blackheaven Sect truly deserved to be the strongest sect.
They had a lot of courage.
Jiang Hao lowered his head. If he could easily enter the Blackheaven Sect, then he would have the opportunity to inquire about the whereabouts of the Thousand Faces Treasure Fan.
Perhaps there was even a chance to obtain it.
Unfortunately, he didn’t want to go to that place, even if he was invited.
He didn’t know how dangerous it was.
The Heavenly Saint Sect, the Fallen Immortal Clan, the Heavenly Joy Pavilion, and the Saint Bandits might all have their eyes on him.
If there was a formidable enemy sent after him that he couldn’t fight, it would be fatal.
However, the Heavenly Saint Sect should be the safest option.
As time passed, the people they sent out became less threatening.
At most, they sent a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator.
Perhaps in the near future, the threat from the Heavenly Saint Sect would disappear completely.
The Sunset Immortal Sect was there too. They had been watching him before for Senior Sister Yun Ruo.
Over a dozen years had passed, and they had also come to their senses.
It was not worth making such a big fuss over a deceased woman.
Even if they truly liked Yun Ruo, it had been more than a dozen years. They gradually forgot about Yun Ruo, and soon, they would forget about revenge.
Jiang Hao didn’t mind.
At night, the stars were bright, and the moon was high in the sky.
Jiang Hao returned to rest.
Even though the stars were bright on the way, darkness still dominated.
A while later, a figure appeared under the starlight.
Jiang Hao was quite surprised. As he approached, he realized it was a middle-aged man.
He politely greeted him and continued on his way.
‘It seems like he’s deliberately waiting for me. But why?’
That person was Hai Ming, the spiritual avatar of Feng Hua.
Hai Ming, who had been watching Jiang Hao, stopped him. “Young friend, wait.”
Jiang Hao was quite interested.
If it was someone who had been in the sect for a long time, he would feel more at ease.
He knew about the Heavenly Sound Sect’s iron-fisted approach to someone harming a disciple, but Hai Ming had just joined the sect recently. He might think that he could kill a disciple without consequence.
In fact, the Law Enforcement Hall was not to be trifled with.
But the most troublesome thing was that Hai Ming might not know that the Law Enforcement Hall was not to be trifled with.
“Elder, did you call for me?” Jiang Hao stopped and turned around.
“Do you know me?” Hai Ming looked surprised.
“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded. “I saw you enter while guarding the mountain gate, Elder. Because of your extraordinary temperament, it left a lasting impression.”
Hai Ming laughed. “You really know how to speak, but I also know you. Jiang Hao from the Cliff of Broken Hearts, right?”
“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.
He was just a little surprised. Why was this person focusing on him?
For a moment, he even thought of Dan Qingzi’s death. Maybe this person was here to investigate that.
“I heard that you are not well-treated in the sect?” Hai Ming asked.
“Senior, you must be joking,” Jiang Hao said. “I haven’t been treated any differently than the others.”
Hai Ming smiled slightly. “You seem to lack magical treasures and techniques.” “My Master has provided and taught me well,” Jiang Hao said.
“Is that so?” Hai Ming took out a book. “I like to make deals with people… fair deals. If you can tell me just one thing, this book, “Four Extreme Autumn Kill,” will be yours. This is a blade technique, and I heard you use a blade.”
Jiang Hao felt strange.
Could the “Four Extreme Autumn Kill” be more powerful than any move from the “Seven Forms of Heavenly Blade”?
However, he still pretended to be interested and said, “Senior, what do you want to ask?”
“I want to ask, young friend, if you have ever seen a fish person,” Hai Ming said softly.
‘So, that was it…
Jiang Hao said, “No.”
He couldn’t hesitate about this matter. If discovered, it would cause big trouble.
“In that case, let’s change the question,” Hai Ming said. “I heard that the fish people are grateful people. If you help them, you will receive their gratitude later. Young friend, what do you think this token of gratitude might be?” Jiang Hao’s heart sank, but he kept a calm face. “I don’t know.”
“Is that so?” Hai Ming narrowed his eyes. “Well, if one day you find out, you can come and find me. Feel free to ask for anything.”
Jiang Hao thanked him and then bid farewell and left.
He maintained a steady speed on his flying sword and moved away from the other party.
However, he felt Hai Ming’s gaze from behind.
‘It seems he suspects I know the secret of the fish people. How did he find out?’ Besides the fish people and Wu Yong, no one should be aware of this.
‘Maybe it’s just a guess. Maybe he only suspects me. I can’t have conflicts with him now. Maybe I can hold off for a few more years.’
Jiang Hao felt it was unlikely. He could only wait to see what the other party would do next.
In the following days, he didn’t see Hai Ming again.
Instead, he saw many people from the Blackheaven Sect.
They could only enter if they had a token. Otherwise, they would be intercepted.
It wasn’t the time for the meeting yet, so they couldn’t just let the Blackheaven Sect’s people in without restrictions.
Who knew what they were up to? If they had a token, once something happened, it wouldn’t be their responsibility.
They followed the procedure.
It had become routine for Blackheaven Sect members to come, so Jiang Hao and the others decided to have one person on duty each day.
In early February, it was Jiang Hao’s turn to guard.
There were no problems in the morning. At noon, the other three were immersed in their cultivation.
Jiang Hao didn’t pay much attention and continued to observe his surroundings.
After a while, a group of people arrived.
They were from the Blackheaven Sect.
Following the usual practice, Jiang Hao checked their tokens and then called for someone to escort them away.
There was no issue. However, after these people had left for a long time, suddenly one person rushed over. He was about to enter the mountain gate.
Jiang Hao stopped him.
“Friend, please wait.”
He appeared in front of the person.
“Get out of the way,” said the man angrily.
Jiang Hao wasn’t surprised, but he looked at him carefully.
The man was wearing the Blackheaven Sect attire. He looked like twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old and at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm.
His belt was a pretty good magical treasure.
Judging by his appearance and attire, his status seemed quite decent.
He must have been blinded by his status, otherwise, he wouldn’t ignore the rules of the Heavenly Note Sect.
Seeing that the man was determined to barge in, Jiang Hao expanded his aura and said, “Friend, this is the Heavenly Note Sect.”
“What’s the matter with the Heavenly Note Sect?” The man who was stopped didn’t look pleased.
“For other sects to enter, they need a token,” Jiang Hao politely said.
“What? Do you have the authority to check me?” The man sneered. “I was invited by one of your Branch Masters.. Do you, a gatekeeper, dare to stop me?”
