Chapter 474: Silent Interrogation
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although the influence of the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl was not as great as the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, its destructive power was certainly formidable.
If it were really near the Heavenly Note Sect, that would be a disaster.
However, since he had missed the opportunity to sense it properly, he couldn’t figure out its approximate location.
Perhaps, he had made a mistake.
After sealing the item, Jiang Hao went to the courtyard.
Next time, if he could sense it again, he would try to confirm the location.
If it wasn’t in the Heavenly Note Sect, he would try to get someone from the gathering to find it, preferably Xing.
If it was here, it would be a bit troublesome.
It would be best if it could be safely taken away. He was afraid it might suddenly erupt, and he might not even be able to escape.
“Gui was right about one thing. It seems like many things are related to the Heavenly Note Sect.”
For a while, Jiang Hao couldn’t understand if the Heavenly Note Sect was special or just unfortunate to get embroiled in such things.
After waiting for a few days, there was no new change in the Earth Extreme Heart Devouring Pearl. He slept again but didn’t see that giant star.
It seemed that someone needed to resonate with the Earth Extreme Silent pearl.
“I’ll need some more time to find it.”
Jiang Hao stopped overthinking and headed to the Lawless Tower.
He wanted to have a chat with Hai Luo, as he might be leaving soon.
By then, there would only be Zhuang Yuzhen left.
In the eastern region, Bi Zhu sat cross-legged with her eyes tightly closed in a hidden house. She was surrounded by cross-legged straw men.
Both of them were within an array.
Dark energy manifested around her, and the dark energy invaded her palm. The dark energy in other areas dissipated.
Within a few breaths, Bi Zhu’s palm started to wither as if it had lost its vitality.
At the same time, the array on the ground changed.
The black energy from her palm was absorbed by the array and then transferred to the straw man.
In an instant, the straw man was covered by the black energy and burned rapidly.
At this moment, Bi Zhu opened her eyes and looked at her palm.
The withered palm was slowly recovering at a slow pace, and a new curse-like aura was born.
However, there was no actual curse.
In an instant, she sensed the aura and looked at her palm in disbelief.
‘How is this possible?’
All the books she had read only talked about suppressing the curse. If transferring and transmutation were possible, why had none of the books mentioned it?
Was it impossible to transfer the curse completely?
Soon, she began to calculate and transfer the curse but by bit. Everything went smoothly.
That night, she attempted to transfer everything.
However, midway, she found that she had failed.
She couldn’t transfer everything. She could only do it bit by bit.
And that part was instantly devoured by the remaining part and returned to its original state. It rendered her efforts ineffective.
But Bi Zhu didn’t give up.
This was something to be studied, but she couldn’t just ask about it. The price she would have to pay for information like that would be significant.
“With Jing’s strength, he wouldn’t say something if it wasn’t useful. Since he mentioned it, there is a possibility of success. Senior Dan Yuan didn’t say much, which means this method is possible.” Bi Zhu nodded to herself. That was enough.
The rest would be up to her.
“But I have to go back.”
At the Heavenly Note Sect, Jiang Hao sat in front of Hai Luo on the fifth floor of the Lawless Tower.
“Do you think just staring at me without speaking will put pressure on me? I’m a king! I have seen it all!” Hai Luo’s voice grew softer as he spoke.
Eventually, he sat there quietly. He was nervous.
He was afraid that Jiang Hao would beckon him.
Zhuang Yuzhen was also curious. Today, Jiang Hao didn’t say a word, and he felt like something was wrong.
It made everyone nervous.
They didn’t know when it had started, but they had begun to see this Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator as powerful.
Actually, Jiang Hao was at a loss about how to broach the subject. Should he tell Hai Luo directly about Miao Anxian? Or should he tell him that someone might come to free him from here?
In the end, he sighed and decided to let it go.
He would let him find out on his own.
Jiang Hao stood up and left. This startled Hai Luo.
“Wait, what are you doing? If you have something to say, just say it. Although I’m not someone you can compare to… I’ll cooperate. Wait!”
Jiang Hao glanced at him and remained silent. He then continued to walk away.
“I’ll cooperate. Just come back!” Hai Luo was getting anxious.
However, Jiang Hao still didn’t speak. It was unclear what exactly he wanted.
“What did you do, you little scum?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked out of curiosity.
“You old bastard! Why do I need to explain myself to you?” Hai Luo said arrogantly.
“Then why are you so panicking?” “My legs are only shaking because it’s numb from sitting so long.” The guard watching this felt astonished.
He had seen Jiang Hao enter and then leave without saying a word.
It seemed Jiang Hao had frightened the captives.
This level of interrogation was simply beyond his imagination.
Such talent was indeed much needed, but unfortunately, they couldn’t get anyone like him.
Not long after, the senior went up to a higher floor.
He needed to speak with some people above.
As soon as he arrived, he saw a senior frowning. It seemed she hadn’t had a good time with the interrogation.
“This old guy from Azure Mountain is quite tough. We’ve tried various methods, but nothing worked. Senior Sister Yinsha isn’t here. Otherwise, she would have used some other way.” The senior sighed.
“Can’t get anything out of him?” asked the man who came up to her.
“Not really. We’ve asked, but there’s no truth in what he says. He claims he didn’t lie, and he has revealed everything. ” The senior shook her head.
What Elder Baizhi needed was not just this.
The man thought for a moment. “When will he be sent to the fifth floor?” “It should be soon. Why?”
“A junior arrived at the Lawless Tower just a while ago. Although he’s not one of us, he has helped us with some things. Previously, Senior Sister Yinsha was the one who would talk to him, so we don’t know many details. I have been guarding the fifth floor, and just now, I saw Hai Luo saying that he will cooperate. But that junior just ignored him and left.” “Is that junior Jiang Hao?” the senior asked.
The young man nodded.
“Is he really that powerful?” The Senior Sister found it hard to believe. But there was no other way. They had to report it to Elder Baizhi.
They decided to wait for a few more days.
In mid-February, Jiang Hao found that the attacks on the Heavenly Note Sect by various sects had completely ceased.
It had been a month, and there weren’t any other changes.
He went to the Spirit Herb Garden and gave some guidance to Cheng Chou on his cultivation issues.
After that, he started tending to the spirit herbs.
However, before he could finish, he received a message.
It was from Elder Baizhi.
“She wants me to go to the Fifth Floor of the Lawless Tower?” Jiang Hao was puzzled.
‘Is Hai Luo leaving so soon?’ He wondered.
It hadn’t been long, and it shouldn’t be this soon.
Maybe they set out the moment Liu mentioned it.
That seemed to be the only possibility.
After that, he continued tending to the Spirit Herb Garden. The message instructed him to go to the Lawless Tower at night. So, there was no need to rush.
After finishing up here, he could go set up a stall at the market for a while too.
During these days, he had earned some spirit stones. Now, he had 15,500 spirit stones.
He had made nearly two thousand spirit stones.
That was quite a lot.
He had done it without any major clients. It was far beyond ordinary income..
