Jiang Hao watched as the number of people working in the garden became fewer and fewer as they fell ill.
It seemed he needed to take action first and help some of them heal so that they can continue working.
However, if he didn’t solve the problem at the source, it would only get worse. He couldn’t possibly eradicate all the poison. It would be suspicious.
“It seems a lot of people here are falling sick, ” said a voice behind Jiang Hao. It was Senior Sister Ming Yi.
“Senior Sister, it’s been a long time since I last saw you,” said Jiang Hao politely.
“Oh, Junior Brother Jiang, you’re being too polite.” Ming Yi smiled. “I looked for you before, but you were out at the time. Do you want me to help? Your people here seem quite ill. But since I’m a Golden Core Realm cultivator, I can work for you for five spirit stones.”
Ming Yi extended her five fingers with a smile. Jiang Hao felt that she was dangerous. Her smile hid danger.
However, he had no reason to refuse. If she was willing to help, he would let her help.
As long as he knew her intention, he would always be prepared.
Fortunately, medical treatment wasn’t very expensive in the sect. However, the cost of the medicine itself was quite high.
However, there were medicinal herbs available at the Spirit Herb Garden.
“It’s not possible to completely eradicate it. This illness is quite strange. I can suppress them for a while so that their bodies can recover,” said Ming Yi as she wiped the sweat on her forehead with the back of her hand.
Jiang Hao thanked her.
“Next time I ask for your help, Junior Brother, please don’t charge me too much.” Ming Yi smiled.
Jiang Hao nodded. “Of course.”
After Ming Yi left, Jiang Hao sighed helplessly. This was only treating the symptoms. He needed to figure out a solution for the root cause.
As long as Yu Xuan was around, the illness wouldn’t disappear.
He would bide his time and see if he could find a way to threaten or eradicate her.
Late at night, Yu Xuan arrived outside the sect.
She waited for a while. A man landed beside her.
“Senior Brother Bai Ji, you are here quite early today,” Yu Xuan said with a smile.
“Junior Sister Yu Xuan, you are also here early. But let’s not delay. Let’s go retrieve the items. Senior Brother Qian Chen must be getting impatient,” Bai Ji said.
They both flew away on their swords.
On the way, Bai Ji asked curiously, “I heard you’re still targeting Jiang Hao from the Cliff of Broken Hearts?”
“Yes, anyway, I’m not doing anything else. I heard he’s good at making talismans, so he should have a fair amount of spirit stones. I’m just trying to get a share,” Yu Xuan said with a smile.
“How much have you managed to get?”
“Not much yet. He’s still hesitating. But the rumors are spreading. Not only ordinary people, but even those who know him, are starting to doubt him. He might be angry, but unfortunately for him, it’s just helpless rage.”
“One Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator being targeted isn’t too bad, but if it goes on for too long, the people from the Cliff of Broken Hearts might notice. The Spirit Herb Garden doesn’t belong to Jiang Hao. It belongs to the Cliff of Broken Hearts. If it goes too far, you might suffer losses, Junior Sister.”
“In that case, I’ll target him without harming the Spirit Herb Garden. I want to see how long Jiang Hao can hold on. The longer he does, the lower he will have to bow,” said Yu Xuan.
“To be honest, if you catch him alone at night and break one of his legs, it will make things much easier afterward,” Bai Ji said.
“Is that so? Maybe I’ll have him break his own leg later for a discount of five hundred spirit stones. Do you think he’ll agree?” Yu Xuan asked.
“He might. Five hundred spirit stones are a lot for a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator,” Bai Ji said calmly.
“I think so too.” Yu Xuan laughed.
“If he could go out of the sect, things would be much easier. Unfortunately, he’s not allowed to go out.” Bai Ji sighed.
“If he could go out, I’d torture him at will. Whatever price he’s willing to pay in spirit stones, he’ll have to pay it. Eventually, I’d send him to his death.”
After some time, they felt something strange
“The sky seems somewhat dark, ” Bai Ji said in puzzlement.
“Yeah, but you can still see the starlight. I don’t know why, but it’s strangely dark,” Yu Xuan said with some confusion.
At this moment, she suddenly felt someone else beside her.
“Who’s there?” she shouted.
In an instant, a dagger flashed by and pierced her neck.
Blood splattered.
Yu Xuan covered her neck and retreated, but she didn’t see anyone.
Bai Ji activated his protective treasure.
However, just as the defense took shape, the dagger appeared again.
It stabbed into the defense and shattered it.
The dagger then pierced Bai Ji’s neck. Blood gushed out.
“Who is it?” he shouted. He still didn’t see anyone.
Boom!
At this time, Yu Xuan released a magical technique into the sky. It was to ask for help.
Just as she thought she might be saved, a long sword pierced through her body.
After that, a long spear whizzed toward her in the next instant.
With a bang, it pierced through her heart and pinned her to a tree.
Yu Xuan roared in terror and anger, but it was in vain.
Bai Ji was pinned to the ground by a long spear that descended from the sky.
Both of them were utterly defenseless.
“Se-Senior, we have no grievances with you. If you seek wealth, we’re willing to give it all to you,” Bai Ji pleaded weakly.
Yu Xuan was terrified.
“If… If you need us to do anything, we’re willing to do whatever it takes. Please spare us, Senior.”
“No grievances?” said a cold voice and a figure came into the light. “Weren’t you just thinking of breaking my legs?” Unfortunately, I can’t go out of the sect. But now that I’m outside, how do you plan to torture me?”
Looking at the man before her, who was surrounded by purple light, Yu Xuan found it hard to believe.
She felt fear. She wanted to speak, but a blade fell on her and blocked her vision.
Just moments ago, she was laughing and joking. Now, she was completely silenced by fear.
Bai Ji stared at the person in front of him. He found it hard to believe. How could this person be Jiang Hao from the Cliff of Broken Hearts? “Senior, I haven’t provoked you.”
“What is Senior Brother Qian Chen’s cultivation realm?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Soul Ascension.” “More details, please?” “I don’t… I don’t know.”
“Will he avenge you?”
“Senior, if you spare me, I’ll leave the Heavenly Note Sect forever and never return.”
“Good.”
Jiang Hao nodded and struck down as Bai Ji was overjoyed.
Once Bai Ji was dead, Jiang Hao looked through his storage treasure.
For safety’s sake, he slashed a few more times. He finally set the storage treasure on fire. Then, he disappeared into the darkness. Under the starlight, something looked like it was on fire.
After that, ashes fell on the ground.
A gentle breeze blew and scattered the ashes. It was as though nothing had ever happened in that place.
Jiang Hao appeared in the courtyard. He breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he sat in the courtyard and gazed at the night sky.
The spirit beast had gone to find Lin Zhi but hadn’t returned yet.
“I wonder if the people from the Law Enforcement Hall noticed that I left. They shouldn’t have…
He had originally planned to keep an eye on Yu Xuan and was still hesitating.
He didn’t expect her to suddenly leave in the middle of the night.
It had allowed him to eliminate the source of the problem.
The others were being treated by Senior Sister Ming Yi for now.
The matter should be over soon.
He just didn’t know how Senior Brother Qian Chen would react. He also needed to observe the reaction of the Law Enforcement Hall..
