Chapter 1567: Chapter 1337: Time is Speeding Up
The transformation of Heavenly King Hai Luo surprised many people.
Even Yinsha furrowed her brows upon arrival.
What had happened?
“Heavenly King, being anxious won’t help,” she said aloud.
Hai Luo soon calmed down, “I need to see him.”
Yinsha nodded, “I’ll pass on the message truthfully, but I’m not sure if he will come.”
After a pause, she added, “The Heavenly King should have known for a long time that he is not a person of the Lawless Tower and cannot be summoned at will.”
“I must see him,” Heavenly King Hai Luo said with a cold voice.
Upon hearing this, Yinsha was certain there was a problem with Hai Luo’s weakness.
And Jiang Hao knew about this weakness. Now suspicions arose that it was Jiang Hao who had tampered with it.
“I’ll do my best,” Yinsha said with a nod.
She then took the old man away.
This matter needed to be reported to Elder Baizhi as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, the other people on the fifth floor looked at each other in confusion.
Had the Heavenly King Hai Luo made his move?
Everyone grew worried for a moment, realizing that Heavenly King Hai Luo was indeed not to be provoked.
Old Man Corpse Sea also breathed a sigh of relief.
No one knew what that person might do next.
.
The matter of Heavenly King Hai Luo was quickly reported to Elder Baizhi.
The other party didn’t hesitate and said to proceed as normal with Yinsha.
Whether Jiang Hao goes or not is his business.
There’s no need to rush.
Moreover, although Hai Luo could leave, he was not to seek out Jiang Hao.
Otherwise, the sect would intervene.
And Hai Luo likely wouldn’t dare, otherwise, he wouldn’t have only sent someone to find him.
After Yinsha left, Baizhi hesitated before deciding to head to Hundred Flowers Lake.
It was time to report on the situation as well.
Everything was stable for the time being, but with many people rising to prominence, the sect also needed some changes.
——
Jiang Hao had been at ease for over two years, his days spent thinking about the treasure map.
He had thought about making one himself, but then reconsidered. If he went searching blindly, he wouldn’t know what he might encounter.
He felt it lacked credibility; what if he had to return halfway?
So he still needed to go and inquire.
Liu was the best choice for this.
But there had been no gatherings lately, so there was no chance to ask.
He could only wait.
After waiting for decades, a few more years didn’t make much difference.
At noon.
He was tending to the spirit herbs in the Spirit Herb Garden. Nowadays, the garden rarely produced blue bubbles.
Only white and green ones.
Purple ones hadn’t been seen in many years.
In the past two years, Miao Tinglian had been in seclusion, proclaiming with each sighting of him that success was imminent.
He would soon find a suitable partner for Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao didn’t stop him because it was useless to do so.
Moreover, it seemed Miao Tinglian had encountered a problem, which was even better.
It meant peace for many years to come.
In these two years, Yi had been following the small girl around like a confused child, slow to understand and learn everything.
If it weren’t for Jiang Hao’s specific request to keep her, she might have already been expelled from the sect.
Although many were dissatisfied, Cheng Chou was not.
Because he knew Senior Brother Jiang wouldn’t bring someone back without reason.
Even if he did, there must be a deeper significance.
So taking care of her was just fine.
After all, her innate talents were average, and no matter how hard she worked on her cultivation, her progress was limited.
It was better to spend some time looking after her.
It wouldn’t affect his own cultivation.
“Yi, you don’t eat an egg like that. You have to peel it open. Oh dear, you can’t just peel it; it needs to be cooked. What is cooked? When it’s hot. Every time the old woman gave me an egg, it was hot. It took a long time for our family to get one egg, so you must not waste it…”
Jiang Hao looked over and saw the small girl explaining to Yi how to eat an egg as Yi crushed the eggshell, looking bewildered and unsure.
Her lack of change was due to the seal.
He was also uncertain about the long-term consequences of this approach, but it surely wasn’t a solution.
However, the girl was after all the daughter of Heavenly King Hai Luo, and it wasn’t yet time for him to make a decision.
For now, maintain the status quo.
He would make a decision when necessary.
If she could be taken back by the Heavenly King in the meantime, that would be for the best.
In the midst of this thought process, he suddenly received a message.
It was from the Lawless Tower.
After reading it, Jiang Hao was quite surprised.
“Heavenly King Hai Luo wants to see me?”
“Why?”
Jiang Hao thought for a moment and quickly linked it to a previous matter.
Someone wanted to see Heavenly King Hai Luo.
It seemed that the message had been delivered.
Glancing at Yi who still seemed a bit dull, Jiang Hao stepped out and left.
She hadn’t been so confused back in the sea domain.
The more she was taken care of, the more bewildered she became.
He didn’t know whether it was Cheng Chou’s issue or the small girl’s.
As his thoughts flowed, Jiang Hao had already reached the Lawless Tower.
Yinsha had been waiting for a while: “Thank you for your trouble, Junior Brother.”
“What happened to the Heavenly King?” asked Jiang Hao, out of curiosity after performing the greeting rituals.
“He became agitated after meeting with an old man and has been like this since,” Yinsha simply replied.
Jiang Hao could tell that a handle had been moved.
And that handle was known only to him.
Thus, the people of the Lawless Tower would not ask further.
Then Jiang Hao arrived on the fifth floor.
The atmosphere here was somewhat peculiar.
Heavenly King Hai Luo had a sullen face, his eyes filled with a chilly intent.
As Jiang Hao approached, he finally looked up.
“You wanted to see me?” Jiang Hao greeted.
“Do you know? Besides you, does anyone else know?” Hai Luo asked.
“No one knows,” Jiang Hao shook his head.
Heavenly King Hai Luo’s eyes grew cold as he said, “Then it was you?”
Jiang Hao pondered for a moment, then nodded, “You could say that.”
Heavenly King Hai Luo stood up swiftly, asking, “Where is it? What do you want to know?”
Jiang Hao looked at the person before him and instead of answering the questions, he simply asked, “Has the Heavenly King offended someone?”
“What do you mean?” Hai Luo was taken aback.
“For example, someone from The End of All Things,” Jiang Hao spoke calmly.
Hai Luo frowned, then shook his head, “That’s not possible.”
“Is that so?” Jiang Hao murmured, “Perhaps the Heavenly King should think more carefully?”
