Jiang Hao left the Law Enforcement hall and arrived at the Spirit Herb garden.

He thought he would meet Liu Xingchen there, but he did not.

He wondered how the four remnant souls in his body were doing.

They had become stronger many times, but they always ended up being devoured.

He wanted to see what would happen after they exploded.

Liu Xingchen probably wanted to see if they could overpower him.

When they arrived at the Spirit Herb Garden, Cheng Chou was delighted.

“Senior Brother Jiang, you’re finally here!”

He had been under a lot of pressure for the past few months without Jiang Hao.

There were always people who wanted to put pressure on the Spirit Herb Garden.

It was not easy for him to deal with.

No one took a Foundation Establishment Cultivator seriously.

Fortunately, everyone knew that he was very close to Jiang Hao, so they did not make things too difficult for him.

He didn’t know when it started, but he, who always got harassed by others, was finally valued.

It was because Jiang Hao had advanced from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Golden Core Realm in less than twenty years.

“Did anything happen in the sect while I was gone?” asked Jiang Hao.

He had not asked the spirit beast and Xiao Li about it that time.

“The people from Heavenly Saint Sect did something, but I don’t have the details,” said Cheng Chou.

Jiang Hao nodded. He knew about the second attempt by the Holy Master.

It had something to do with Senior Sister Miao Tinglian.

However, she was busy looking for a partner for him with the spirit beast.

She never tired of it.

“Other than that, there’s nothing else. The only major event is the sect’s selection for top disciples. Many disciples have returned already. The place is not peaceful. People keep trying to target each other. You might also be targeted, Senior Brother.”

Jiang Hao found it hard to believe. It seemed not everyone was afraid of the Blood Wish Path.

There were some people who thought that those who practiced Blood Wish Path were easy targets.

“Senior Brother Han Ming is back. He’s in seclusion at Master’s place. He should be coming out soon,” Cheng Chou said.

“He’s back?” Jiang Hao smiled. “It seems he has gained a lot on his trip.”

Every time Junior Brother Han Ming went out, his cultivation realm increased drastically.

With the Mountain River Sword Embryo, he might be able to reach the peak of the Golden Core Realm soon.

A 41-year-old Golden Core Realm cultivator.

It was truly amazing.

The competition was in a few days, and it was likely that Han Ming would participate.

Jiang Hao entered the Spirit Herb Garden. As soon as he reached the entrance, he frowned.

“So few people?”

With just a glance, he could tell that people were missing from the Spirit Herb Garden.

Although it did not change anything, he still needed to know.

“Yes.” Cheng Chou nodded. “That’s what I planned to tell you next, Senior Brother Jiang. I need you to make a decision.”

“Tell me.” Jiang Hao went to the Spirit Herb Garden and tended to some herbs.

He did a quick check, but there weren’t many superior-grade spirit herbs.

However, the difference wasn’t that great. One or two blue bubbles would appear in a month’s work here.

He could not give in.

There was no need to do anything much.

“Some of them are already getting on in years. They can’t do the delicate work here anymore. There might be more mistakes if they continue. I can cover a lot of the work but not all,” said Cheng Chou.

“How should we deal with it?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Most of the others from other branches were killed. Some were thrown out of the sect and left to fend for themselves. Very few branches kept them. After all, the demonic sect doesn’t keep people who are of no use,” said Cheng Chou.

“How many are there?” Jiang Hao asked.

“A total of six,” Cheng Chou said.

“I’ll go and see them later,” Jiang Hao said.

“Actually…” Cheng Chou hesitated. “Some people in the Spirit Herb Garden are waiting for you. They want to know how you will deal with it, Senior Brother. Seniors and juniors are also watching to see what you might do. They seem curious to see what a practitioner of the Blood Wish Path will do to win over people’s hearts.”

Jiang Hao chuckled. “Don’t worry about them. What they think is not important to us. Words are just words. But this is a demonic sect. There is no need to care about what others say or think.”

Cheng Chou nodded.

He knew that Jiang Hao was different from the others. He did not let other things affect him.

However, not everyone was like him.

He knew Jiang Hao would not harm anyone. If that were the case, Cheng Chou felt that he would not be where he was.

That evening, Jiang Hao followed Cheng Chou to the ordinary non-cultivator area in the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

“How do you think Senior Brother Jiang will handle this?” asked a curious outer sect disciple.

“Senior Brother Jiang cultivates the Blood Wish Path. He will not disappoint,” said a woman.

“But the Blood Wish Path cultivators are ruthless. I feel like Senior Brother Jiang will give them a quick death,” said a Lifeblood Refinement cultivator.

At that moment, Xiao Li walked over with the spirit beast.

They seemed to be leaving as well. It was time for them to eat.

“Senior Sister Xiao Li, what do you think Senior Brother Jiang will do?” asked a woman.

“Huh?” Xiao Li scratched her head. “Anything Senior Brother Jiang will do will be the right thing.”

Everyone was surprised.

“Woof! Woof!”

Little Wang barked as if saying that its Master was right.

Everyone felt that this dog was really loyal.

But they were confused about what kind of dog it was. It looked strange.

No one dared to ask.

Xiao Li was a True Disciple and had a high status, after all.

After a while, Jiang Hao arrived at the place where the ordinary non-cultivators lived.

The houses did not look dilapidated. Although they were a little shabby, they were still passable compared to the ones in other branches.

It was not like that until Jiang Hao took charge of the Spirit Herb Garden.

Many people understood what was going on.

They knew the fate of those six people was about to be determined.

There were four men and two women.

There seemed to be two old couples.

They had lived in the Spirit Herb Garden for a long time.

They had seen the miserable state of the Spirit Herb Garden with his own eyes until Jiang Hao took over.

Then, the houses were rebuilt. They did not feel afraid.

When Jiang Hao arrived, the six people knelt in respect.

The others did not understand. They wondered if this person had changed somehow.

If it was not for this person, they would not be alive in the Cliff of Broken Hearts at all.

How long would it take for the other branches to do what he did here?

“Greetings, Immortal Elder,” said the six people at the same time.

Jiang Hao looked at the six of them and felt that they were not even in their fifties.

However, their health was declining. There was nothing he could do about that.

Even if ordinary non-cultivators were nourished by spiritual energy, they would still face problems.

It was not always safe.

Jiang Hao looked at them and said calmly, “The Heavenly Note Sect won’t support you anymore.”

The six people remained kneeling.

They knew this already.

“Do you have any ideas on a solution?” Jiang Hao asked.

“It’s all up to you, Immortal Elder,” said the six people at the same time.

“Do you still remember where you are from?” Jiang Hao looked at them.

The six of them thought for a moment and shook their heads.

“Do you have any thoughts of going back home?” Jiang Hao asked calmly.

The six of them were stunned.

“I found out where you came from. Your village still stands,” he said. “The fallen leaves finally return to their roots. Go back. I will give you enough money for the rest of your life. I’ll also get Cheng Chou to inform the people there. You should be able to live peacefully for the rest of your lives,” Jiang Hao said slowly.

The six of them looked up at Jiang Hao and bowed.

The next day, Jiang Hao arranged for Cheng Chou to send them off.

Xiao Li walked with the spirit beast.

Those who were observing Jiang Hao felt that they had expected something like this.

They also felt that this person was not kind, but he did things to make himself look better because he practiced the Blood Wish Path.

However, there were always people who were not very convinced by such things.

At that moment, a cultivator at the peak of the Golden Core Realm from the Cliff of Broken Hearts said, “Where is the threat? Where is the display of power? This senior seems very mellow. He has no ruthlessness to him.”

“I’ve already told you,” said Ning Xuan. “It’s up to you whether you believe me or not.”

“He’s not my match,” the young man said confidently.
