Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1353: At Most, They’ll Kill My Avatar, But What Can They Do To My Main Body? (2)

Even in death, they still did not understand what Jiang Hao meant.

Putting away his blade, Jiang Hao looked at Cheng Chou.

Cheng Chou immediately realized they needed to find the people from the Law Enforcement Hall.

The previous deaths did not matter much, but the last two were inner sect disciples.

Jiang Hao put away his blade. Spies were still in the Spirit Herb Garden, but it was not the right time to make a move.

However, he had placed the Mountain Sea Seal on them, and they had not noticed. He could take their lives at any moment.

If the world became too dangerous, he would have to kill them to ensure safety.

As for the formation…

He was not skilled with formations, but Xiao Li often stayed in the Spirit Herb Garden.

She would detect it. Finding key points in the formation would be even easier for her.

Formations were easy for Xiao Li.

The spirit beast could deceive the world without getting affected. Xiao Li, on the other hand, was sharp and leaped at any moment that she could use.

The two were not the same.

Xiao Li was impressive.

When he left the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao saw a person standing at the entrance.

The person was smiling as though he had been waiting for this moment.

It was Liu Xingchen.

Jiang Hao turned to look at Cheng Chou, who shook his head.

Liu Xingchen had come here uninvited.

“Junior Brother, are you killing spies?” Liu Xingchen asked.

Jiang Hao was surprised, but he nodded.

Liu Xingchen handed him a list of names. “There are some spies on here. They are people from the Cliff of Broken Hearts. I hope that you can help deal with them. After all, danger is coming. The Law Enforcement Hall and Lawless Tower don’t have that many people. I hope you can help us out.”

Jiang Hao looked at the list and realized that the names of the two outer sect disciples that he had killed were among them.

It seemed that the Law Enforcement Hall had been observing the situation quietly and was only preparing to make a move before the end of the opportunity of the Great Era.

Looking further, he saw that the people he was about to deal with were also on the list.

He felt Liu Xingchen might have discovered something.

Of course, on the bright side, having Liu Xingchen around made things much easier for him.

It seemed the Law Enforcement Hall was about to take significant action to welcome the inevitable storm.

“Senior Brother, aren’t you worried I might have ill intentions? After all, I’m still a suspect,” Jiang Hao said.

“Who can be suspected for decades without a shred of evidence proving harm to the sect?” Liu Xingchen smiled. “Although you’re on the suspect list, you have someone who can vouch for you and have high achievements at that. If you really wanted to get off the suspect list, you would have done so long ago. I must tell you… if you find any evidence against new spies, you can add their names to the list. If you capture them alive, that’s fine. If you kill them, you must not kill the wrong person, even by mistake. Our Law Enforcement Hall will reinvestigate. If you kill the wrong person, you’ll bear the responsibility for slaughtering your fellow disciples. Keep that in mind. We’re not joking around here.”

Jiang Hao nodded. He realized that Liu Xingchen suspected he was up to something regarding the spies.

He was not sure if the list was enough for his needs.

He could add names to it but not without proper evidence.

After reminding him of a few more things, Liu Xingchen left.

According to him, Law Enforcement Peak was short of manpower, so he could not stay long.

Watching Liu Xingchen leave, Jiang Hao said softly, “Seal off the news here and bring that person over.”

This was directed at Cheng Chou.

He nodded.

He knew who that person was.

They had contacted her before.

It was a Junior Sister in the outer sect who had come to the Heavenly Note Sect to earn some money for her parents back home.

He had secretly investigated and found that she had not received any money because her parents were no longer alive.

They had died under strange circumstances, but since the area there was already unstable, no one paid any attention.

In the end, their bodies were left exposed in the wild.

It was Cheng Chou who discovered and buried them.

The money sent was also buried with them.

Sometimes, he lamented that so many people endured so much suffering, and even the kindest hearts would be worn down by such commonplace hardships.

Perhaps those who seemed heartless and indifferent were not that way by choice, but because they had witnessed too much suffering.

So, they remained unaffected by things like these.

Cheng Chou went to find that Junior Sister.

…

At the Lawless Tower, one by one, the strong began to leave.

Mu Longyu was on the fifth floor and could hear footsteps.

Someone had just informed him that the Lawless Tower was going to be sealed. If he did not want to be trapped inside, he needed to leave quickly.

Mi Lingyue could also leave if she wanted.

They could either stay or leave this place of trouble.

“Are you leaving?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked Mu Longyu and the others.

“I don’t think so.” Mu Longyu shook his head.

The person he wanted to see was right here in the sect, which meant that the number one in history could appear at any time.

“Is that Junior Brother still in the sect?” the lantern bearer asked curiously.

“Yes.” Mu Longyu nodded.

Hearing this, the others seemed less worried.

After all, that person was smart and would not stay here if it was too dangerous.

The Heavenly Note Sect still had a trump card of their own.

“Are you really not leaving?” Mi Lingyue asked Mu Longyu.

He nodded. “We can’t leave.”

Indeed, they could not leave. The first through the ages might be observing this place.

In addition, Mu Yin was still at the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

No matter what, he had to stay.

“You didn’t get the opportunity, but I see your cultivation has improved quite a bit.” Old Man Corpse Sea seemed surprised.

The person before him had become an immortal without going overseas, yet he was still impressive, unlike those who hadn’t received the opportunity.

“Maybe it’s because I walked the immortal path twice, and the Heavenly Note Sect still has a heavy snowfall,” Mu Longyu said.

He was quite puzzled. The southern region rarely experienced snowfall.
