Chapter 390: Captured The Attention of the Gathering
At midnight, Jiang Hao took out the stone tablet and entered it.
The four individuals had already gathered.
Every time, Dan Yuan arrived earlier than all others. It was as though he never left the gathering.
“Is there any issue with your cultivation?” Dan Yuan asked.
“I’ve been feeling a bit strange lately. It seems like my cultivation progress has been slow, and I can’t find the reason,” said Liu.
“All things in the early stages can affect one’s core, and they will exert influence through some unknown path that is hard to perceive. After all, you’re cultivating a technique that is not from the Bright Moon Sect, so it’s hard to avoid it. Go and find a treasure related to the stars, and it will effectively resolve the disruption to your cultivation,” Dan Yuan said.
“I see.” Liu nodded and thanked him.
He had suspected it might be related to his foundation, but he couldn’t find a way to address it.
After that, no one spoke.
Dan Yuan looked at Gui. “The traces of great luck have been confirmed. Friend, you can consider your reward. Be bold.”
Gui had found traces of great luck, so she had completed the last task.
Naturally, compensation needed to be provided.
Jiang Hao felt that Gui’s rate of completion of tasks was faster than the others. She had completed several tasks by now.
“I still need the Snow God Pill.” “Alright.” Dan Yuan nodded.
‘Two pills…’
Jiang Hao felt that if this continued, all the Snow God Pills would end up in Gui’s pocket.
One Snow God Pill was equivalent to a divine ability. Indeed, this thing was highly coveted.
“This time’s task is to investigate a newly emerging force, which is spreading in the eastern region.” Dan Yuan looked at the group. “They are known as the Saint Bandits.”
“Saint Bandits?” Gui was somewhat puzzled. “What have they done?”
“I think I’ve heard about them. It is said that they steal the talents of genius disciples,” said Xing.
“How do they steal?” Gui was skeptical.
“They claim to have been blessed by the heavens and the earth, so they can steal everything,” Dan Yuan said.
“I’ll go take a look. It just so happens that I need to head to the east. Now, I feel the south is too dangerous if the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl erupts. I’ll hide for a while. Only when the immortal sect finds the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, will it be safe,” said Gui.
“I can’t go, but there might be information overseas. I’ll find out,” said Liu.
Jiang Hao remained silent.
He wasn’t going anywhere. No matter where he went, it wouldn’t matter.
After thinking for a moment, he realized that going to an immortal sect had its advantage. If the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl were to erupt, he could go there.
If they didn’t suppress it, everyone would die. He believed they would do their best.
Unfortunately, the most likely outcome was that he would be suppressed along with it.
With no further tasks, the gatheing epterecl the next phase.
“I’ve already paid the reward to Gui,” said Xing.
Gui nodded.
It was the reward for finding the traces of great luck.
Then Xing turned to Jiang Hao. “There’s currently no news of the End of All Things, but I’ll let you know as soon as I find any clue.”
Jiang Hao nodded.
The End of All Things was a large organization, and there were many other matters to handle.
Xing was in the east, and what he found would likely be of little use to him.
With no task demands, the group began to discuss local news and other matters.
Jiang Hao knew that if recent events were causing any tremors, he would hear about them here.
It’s just that he hadn’t expected it to be related to him.
“Do you know Jiang Hao from the Heavenly Note Sect?” Xing suddenly asked.
“What’s special about this person?” Liu asked curiously.
“I know him,” Gui suddenly said. “His current cultivation should be at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. He’s a very cautious person. I shared some spirit stones with him, and he said it was too much for him. But it seems he knows Shang An. He said he mined for Shang An before. Speaking of which, I don’t know what’s up with him. He’s always mining.”
“What kind of person is he?” Liu was puzzled.
Jiang Hao didn’t know why they were discussing him. He never bothered anyone and did his own thing.
“Clearly, he was the type who wouldn’t trouble himself as long as you didn’t provoke him. Even if you did provoke him, he might back down and let things
“I met him once too,” Jiang Hao said calmly.
“Have you met him? Is he really only at the Foundation Establishment Realm?” Xing asked.
“I tested him in various ways and used Gu Poison to sense his cultivation. He is indeed only at the Foundation Establishment Realm,” said Gui.
Jiang Hao was speechless.
“Maybe his inherent talent is good. It’s said that many people have fallen because of him,” said Xing.
Jiang Hao hesitated. “I’ll see if I can make contact with him.”
There was no other way. He had to take the initiative to make contact to prevent the Gui from doing so.
Even if there were problems later on, he could easily find excuses.
Gu Qing would probably be the first to expose him.
After all, without him, Gu Qing wouldn’t have been deprived of her treasure or thrown into the mine.
Fortunately, all these matters were within his expectations.
The more they interacted with the prisoners in the Lawless Tower, the more likely he would be discovered.
Fortunately, the impact wouldn’t be too significant. At most, people might think he could see through their intentions or that someone was manipulating him.
However, being at the Foundation Establishment Realm meant he was only suitable to be a jailer.
“Friend Jing, you should be careful. His observational abilities might be quite remarkable,” said Xing.
Jiang Hao nodded.
“In that case, I won’t rush back to the Heavenly Note Sect,” said Gui. “I’ve heard about some interesting news recently. They say that the Xuanyuan Clan wants to restore their glory. I don’t know where they got the confidence from.”
‘That’s because the ancient flower has bloomed.’ Jiang Hao couldn’t say it aloud. He was also quite puzzled. The flower had only just bloomed. Why was the Xuanyuan Clan being so pompous?
“Was the Xuanyuan Clan really formidable in the past?” Liu was quite curious. “I’ve read many books, but the Xuanyuan Clan’s history has never been mentioned. ”
Xing also didn’t know much about it.
The group looked at Dan Yuan.
“They were indeed formidable, but they were wiped out a long time ago,” Dan Yuan said calmly.
The group was surprised. However, they didn’t ask further.
“The people searching for the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl overseas seem to have suffered quite a lot. It’s said that some have returned.” He suddenly looked at Gui. “I heard that Mi Lingyue has been rescued. When the time comes, you can ask for your reward, Gui.”
“Would the Heavenly Note Sect really release someone like her?” Gui was astonished.
“They did indeed release her. It’s said that a significant sum was paid,” Liu said.
“The Heavenly Note Sect is quite surprising. I thought they would keep Mi Lingyue imprisoned until she was willing to sacrifice herself. I didn’t expect them to release her so soon. Are they short on spirit stones?” asked Gui.
Jiang Hao felt that the Heavenly Note Sect wasn’t short on spirit stones, but they were trying to alleviate bad blood with others.
They had provoked nearly every surrounding sect and even overseas. If all of those people united against the Heavenly Note Sect, they would undoubtedly suffer major losses.
They had to try to make things right.
Furthermore, Mi Lingyue didn’t have much value because she was unwilling to work with the sect. So, it was only useful to give her away. Letting her go for a ransom was good. The sect wasn’t losing anything by doing so.
“Something strange happened on a small island overseas. A group of people suddenly appeared, and no one knows what they are planning. I’ve asked around, but nobody knows where they came from.” Liu was puzzled.
Jiang Hao listened attentively. He had already offered to keep an eye on “Jiang Hao.” There wasn’t much he could do.
There was no need to chime in again..
