Chapter 481: How Can He Control Me?

‘Mi Lingyue?’
Jiang Hao was surprised when he saw Mi Lingyue. He didn’t expect that she would come to pick the Heavenly King Hai Luo.
Beside her was a middle-aged man, with a remarkable temperament. It was as though the aura of the sea was restrained within him and was ready to erupt at any moment.
The person should be one of the Twelve Heavenly Kings, Mu Longyue.
‘Two enemies actually came here.’
He knew the secrets of the two and knew about their child’s existence. If the person suddenly tried to kill him, he might just die here.
This was the disadvantage of acting recklessly in the Lawless Tower. It was easy to offend some powerful individuals.
Whether it was Zhuang Yuzhen, Mi Lingyue, Heavenly King Hai Luo, or the already deceased Gu Qing and so on.
They all wanted to kill him and be done with it.
The more restrained he was in the tower, the more severe the backlash when he came out.
It was just like with Gu Qing before.
It caused him to expose the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, and the consequences went beyond that. If the other person had continued to pry, there was a possibility of complete exposure of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl.
Because of this lesson, he needed to completely resolve the issue with Dan Qingzi.
He had been threatening Jiang Hao and would definitely make a move if possible.
He had to be on guard.
“Greetings, Seniors,” Jiang Hao said respectfully.
Mi Lingyue smiled awkwardly.
It was indeed strange for Jiang Hao to be appointed by the Heavenly Note Sect to escort the Heavenly King Hai Luo alone.
But she didn’t believe for a moment that they weren’t being watched.
“Is your name Jiang Hao?” Mu Longyue asked.
“Yes, that’s me.” Jiang Hao nodded.
“Can we take Hai Luo away on our own from here?” Mu Longyue’s face darkened.
“Of course.” Jiang Hao nodded.
“Hai Luo, are you coming?” Mu Longyue looked at Heavenly King Hai Luo.
Heavenly King Hai Luo frowned. He thought about what Jiang Hao had just said.
Watching them leave, Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
There were no unexpected incidents.
But he was quite puzzled about one thing. Now that the Heavenly King Hai Luo was only at the late stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm, was he of any use to those overseas?
The fact that one of the Twelve Heavenly Kings had personally come to get him, he probably was still useful.
Jiang Hao turned and left.
On the fifth floor, there was only Zhuang Yuzhen left.
Based on what Dan Qingzi said, he probably wouldn’t stay tor long.
He had a radical personality, and the hatred had already been sown. Jiang Hao needed to find a way to make him let go of his resentment.
Back at the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao received a message from Cheng Chou. The Cliff Master had called him for a visit.
“Did he say why?”
“No.”
“Alright. Don’t touch the reserved spirit herbs for now. If I don’t return by afternoon, you can then handle them.”
“Okay.”
Jiang Hao went to his master’s residence.
Although he didn’t know why, there was a possibility it was related to his advancement to the Golden Core Realm.
Or perhaps it was related to what Liu Xingchen had mentioned.
A little while later, Jiang Hao met the grim-faced Master Ku Wu Chang.
“Master.”
“The Master of the Heavenly Joy Pavilion promised me that he will not trouble you for the time being and will also restrain the members of the Heavenly Joy
Pavilion from pestering you.”
Master Ku Wu Chang’s voice was deep.
His gaze remained focused on Jiang Hao. It seemed to imply something.
“Thank you, Master,” Jiang Hao said respectfully.
“Have you achieved the Golden Core Realm?” Ku Wu Chang asked. “Yes. I managed to advance because of some opportunities and mostly luck.” Master Ku Wu Chang didn’t ask much about it. He just looked at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao lowered his head. He didn’t dare to meet his master’s gaze.
He understood his master’s insinuation.
He wanted Jiang Hao to be out of the suspect list of the Law Enforcement Hall.
“Do you want to continue staying at the Spirit Herb Garden?” Master Ku Wu Chang asked.
The Spirit Medicine Garden was usually managed by Foundation Establishment Realm disciples, and there were rarely any Golden Core Realm cultivators inside.
Even if there were, they would occasionally come at night to make sure there were no problems.
Under normal circumstances, no Golden Core Realm cultivator would manage it for the long term.
“Yes. I hope you will grant this request, Master,” Jiang Hao said pleadingly.
He needed to stay at the Spirit Herb Garden.
If not there, then perhaps the mines. However, it was more dangerous there, and there were more problems.
But it could help him advance faster, which was acceptable.
Master Ku Wu Chang remained silent for a long time before finally nodding in agreement.
He did not mention the Law Enforcement Hall’s suspect list or anything about becoming a True Disciple.
“Do you want to learn anything?” he asked.
“I’d like to learn some offensive spells,” Jiang Hao said.
The Demonic Sound Slash was for the Foundation Establishment Realm. Although it was still useful, its power was insufficient.
If he could learn another slashing technique, it would make it much easier to deal with Junior Brother Han Ming in the future.
However, his master knew that Jiang Hao had learned the first form of Heavenly Blade, Moon-Slaying. It was hard to say whether he was willing to teach him anything else.
“For now, I will teach you the Thousand Demonic Tones,” Ku Wu Chang said in
a deep voice.
A little while later, Jiang Hao left the courtyard.
After passing on the technique, the Cliff Master asked him to return and cultivate diligently.
And Han Ming, who had just arrived, was left behind at his master’s residence.
Jiang Hao understood that if he were the True Disciple, he might also have stayed longer.
The Thousand Demonic Tones was not a sword technique, but it could be applied to the Demonic Sound Slash. Combined, they would release astonishing power.
The Thousand Demonic Tones could be superimposed on the Demonic Sound Slash and increase the speed by more than a notch.
Although it still couldn’t compare to the Moon-Slaying and Light and Dust Technique, there were certain conveniences that it afforded.
It could shatter the psychological defense of weaker opponents.
The Thousand Demonic Tones could even be added to other spells. The Moon -Slaying Technique might work as well, but the two were incompatible and might cancel each other out.
He would try it once he learned it.
Back at the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao began tending the spirit herbs.
He collected the bubbles that were there.
Most of them were white and green bubbles.
They all provide enhancements to strength or spirit.
‘I’ve been picking them up for over twenty years, but it’s still not enough. But there is still time, and the impact it brings later will be greater. I wonder if something will happen.’
On the fifth floor of the Lawless Tower, there are only two people in the prison cells. One was Zhuang Yuzhen in cell number one, and the other was Dan Qingzi in cell number three.
Unlike Zhuang Yuzhen, who was resting with his eyes closed, Dan Qingzi was sitting on the floor indignantly.
As time passed, he lowered his head. The contempt in his eyes intensified.
After waiting for a long time, he gradually closed his eyes.
He opened his eyes again and something flashed in them.
He has figured something out.
Zhuang Yuzhen and Hai Luo were afraid of a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator because that person knew their weakness. They weren’t afraid of anyone else.
In other words, his weakness was only known to one Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.
How could a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator control his avatar even if he knew about it?
At least, for now, it was impossible.
This gave him an opportunity.
Demonic sects only kept things as long as they were valuable. If they ran out of their value, they were of no use to the sect.
He still had some value, so he was being guarded and watched.
But what if he lost his value?
At that time, either he would be silenced, or he would lose all his cultivation realm and would be thrown into the mines.
But no matter which path he took, it was what he wanted.
That way, he could break free and wouldn’t be limited by anyone.
He could even kill that Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator before leaving. Or he could stay away and wait for the right moment.
But that Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator must die.
As for other things, he didn’t care about them much. If he thought too much, his resolve would weaken. Once his resolve weakened, other people could easily control him.
He made up his mind and called for someone.
“I’ll tell you everything, but I want that Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator’s life..”
