The appraisal result was very fast.
[Liu Xingchen: True Disciple of the Heavenly Faction. In the middle stage of the Soul Ascension Realm. He was born with the aura of a dragon. He is undercover at the Heavenly Note Sect’s Law Enforcement Hall. The soul remnants in his body exploded, injured his energy source, and caused chaos. The big ancient demon aura started to repair his soul and exert his innate talent to disrupt his foundation. Now, the root of the soul has been suppressed by the divine item, the Soul Stabilizing Needle. After 49 days, the divine item will lose its effect, and he will go berserk again. When he heard about you, he gave up on refining his cultivation and came to watch the show. His instinct told him that there was something big about to happen.]
The ancient dragon aura had already started healing him, and it affected Liu Xingchen.
It seemed he was no ordinary cultivator.
Jiang Hao was most surprised by the last sentence.
In order to have a good show, he gave up on refining his cultivation.
He could give up on his cultivation but not a good show. What kind of person was he?
“Senior Brother Liu.” Jiang Hao bowed.
He was impressed by him.
However, he also felt helpless. It felt strange to be under the scrutiny of such a person.
“I heard that you were selected as a candidate for the seat of the top disciples?” Liu Xingchen smiled. “Congratulations, Junior Brother Jiang. Are you here to take on a mission?”
“Yes. I also have some doubts I need to clear up,” he said truthfully.
The person in front of him should be able to clear his doubts.
As expected, Liu Xingchen nodded. “You have doubts because you have to leave the sect for the mission?”
“Yes. I wonder how that might work out,” said Jiang Hao.
“I see… but the mission for the top disciple’s selection process cannot be held inside the sect,” said Liu Xingchen. “That’s what we discussed, anyway. The sect will not be able to gauge the capabilities of the candidate if the mission is held within the sect. So, they have to leave the sect. That is why you were assigned a mission just outside the sect. It’s closer than the others. It’s obviously not feasible to send you further because you’re still on the suspect list.”
“Really?” Jiang Hao understood.
The irony was that the suspect list had offered him protection before, but because of it, he had to go near the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl.
That would bring him many troubles.
As expected, everything had pros and cons.
The suspect list had always benefited him. However, he was facing disaster because of it for the first time.
He was in a situation where he could not refuse to go.
“Junior Brother Jiang, do you understand your mission?” Liu Xingchen asked with a smile.
He looked very eager, as though Jiang Hao was the main character in his show.
“Senior Brother Liu, do you know anything about it?” Jiang Hao asked.
“I’ve heard some things.” Liu Xingchen pointed somewhere. “Let’s sit there and talk.”
Jiang Hao nodded.
They found a bench to sit on.
After that, Jiang Hao took out an ordinary tea set and brewed some tea that he had bought for fifty spirit stones.
“Junior Brother Jiang, this tea is not bad,” Liu Xingchen said with a smile.
Jiang Hao nodded. He did not have to worry because he was not serving tea to Hong Yuye.
Most tea leaves cost more than 200 spirit stones per pack.
However, he did not drink it frequently, so he could afford it.
Even two hundred thousand spirit stones were not enough for the things he needed to buy.
He had not found a place to earn more.
But he had a lot of tea leaves at the moment.
“Have you heard of the Fallen Immortal Clan?” Liu Xingchen asked as he sipped his tea.
“I’ve heard of them.” Jiang Hao nodded.
“I heard that the lake water was created by them. They seemed to have done that to lure out someone called Smiling San Sheng. If he enters the lake, it’ll trap him. There’s nowhere to hide, apparently.” Liu Xingchen looked at him with narrowed eyes. “I have heard of Smiling San Sheng before. It’s said that he often appears in our sect. But we were unable to find any trace of him. That reminds me of something… Junior Brother Jiang, do you know something?”
“About what?” Jiang Hao asked.
“During these twenty years, there have been a few conflicts in the sect, but we were unable to find the person who did it. Twenty years later, someone is here to find Smiling San Sheng. Even the Fallen Immortal Clan can’t find him, so they have come up with a trap. Do you think these two things are related?” Liu Xingchen asked.
Jiang Hao was shocked. “Maybe… but it doesn’t feel like it.”
“Yes. I guess it is impossible, especially since no one even knows who Smiling San Sheng is. In just a few years, that name has become infamous in the South and the overseas region. Do you think someone who was considered weak in the past might have grown to such an extent that they can now shock all four regions?” Liu Xingchen’s eyes gleamed.
For him, everything was a show that he could watch for entertainment.
“That… is a little unbelievable.” Jiang Hao couldn’t believe it.
“Yes, but sometimes, the strangest things have more probability of being true. If you just think about it, anything that is impossible might end up being the most plausible explanation.”
“Senior Brother Liu, you are very smart,” Jiang Hao said in admiration.
“Junior Brother Jiang, do you think Smiling San Sheng will go to the lake?” Liu Xingchen asked with a smile.
“I guess so,” Jiang Hao said. “I heard that Smiling San Sheng is fearless and reckless. He doesn’t care about anything. Even if he knows it’s a trap, he might still go there.”
“Then you have to be careful, Junior Brother Jiang.” Liu Xingchen narrowed his eyes. “It would be dangerous if you met Smiling San Sheng. He seems very unpredictable. I heard he kills people based on his mood.”
“Thank you for your warning, Senior Brother Liu.” Jiang Hao lowered his head in gratitude.
Then, Liu Xingchen left.
He did not stay for too long. Jiang Hao did not know what he was up to.
Jiang Hao sighed.
He was not sure if Liu Xingchen was implying something by his words, but he had brought valuable news with him.
Once Smiling San Sheng entered the lake, he would be ensnared in a trap set by the Fallen Immortal Clan.
There was nowhere to hide.
If that was really the case, he would be in danger.
Was there anything that could fight against such a thing?
It might not be enough to use the Leaf of Concealment or the Heavenly Secrets Hidden talisman.
“I have to try anyway.”
He was not sure how far the Fallen Immortal Clan would go. He could only find out after entering the lake.
He had no clones or avatars. It was not possible to make one.
Apart from that, he also had the divine ability, Myriad Nature Forest. What he lacked was a way to make an avatar he could control.
The Myriad Nature Forest allowed him to create a likeness of himself, but he could not control it.
After entering, he could observe the Fallen Immortal Clan.
There was another solution, but he did not want to use that method unless absolutely necessary. It would only invite more trouble.
The method was very simple. It was to find all the members of the Fallen Immortal Clan and convince them to return.
That was what Smiling San Sheng would do.
But if there were too many experts…
He had to make a deal with Gui.
He was no match for all of them, but Gui always was good with stealth.
Unfortunately, Gui had paid him back already.
If he found some information on Saint Bandits, she would owe him.
It would be much easier to get her to do what he wanted after that.
Time passed quickly, and half a month was gone just like that.
At the end of March, Jiang Hao headed to the Law Enforcement Hall to wait for the others.
He had tried everything but had not gotten any new information.
He was not discovered, and he did not encounter the Fallen Immortal Clan.
His plan might actually fail.
He could only take one step at a time.
He had a feeling that things would not go as smoothly as he expected.
