Chapter 538: Heavenly King Hai Luo Is Locked in the Lawless Tower?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Hao felt somewhat strange as he watched Wan Yanfeng leave.
Yesterday, a group of insignificant disciples had come to ask questions. Today, it was a True Disciple.
This True Disciple was rather polite and addressed people with respect. In fact, if he hadnât greeted them first, they would have had to address him as âSenior Brother.â
They wouldnât dare to call him âJunior Brother.â
âA human-like spirit beast with a fishtail⊠Is such a beast worthy of attention from a True Disciple? There must be more to this.â
The others were curious too. Besides, the True Disciple had said that he would give them each a Heaven Rejuvenating Pill.
Jiang Hao lowered his head. He would never fight the others for it.
There was no need to.
Even if it happened, he might not even ask for it. He didnât want conflicts.
It was good for everyone that way.
As for not being able to help, no one would say anything about that.
There was more than one place other than the mountain gate. They couldnât make conflicts and offend others.
However, they could vent everything on the weakest. Thankfully, Jiang Hao wasnât the weakest here.
Later, Jiang Hao didnât pay attention to the matters here and continued to cultivate with the knowledge from the nameless manual.
Time passed quickly.
Another half a month had passed. It was nearly September.
The people from the Thunder Fire Peak were still looking for that spirit beast, and it seemed they had found some clues.
Jiang Hao didnât pay much attention to it. He only occasionally heard about it from the people of Thunder Fire Peak, including a few seniors.
Now, what concerned him more was the Sea Fog Cave and Senior Sister Luo Zhi.
There had been no progress with Senior Sister Luo Zhiâs matter. All manpower was drawn to the Sea Fog Cave.
Many matters were put on hold.
He had been out of the Sea Fog Cave for two months. It meant that the conflict there had gone on more the duration of that time.
âShouldnât it be over by now?â
With the intervention of Gui and the entry of the Heavenly Note Sect, the Saint Banditsâ plan should have failed.
Yet, they had managed to hold on for so long.
The next day, Jiang Hao received news that the people from the Sea Fog Cave were rapidly retreating.
They captured some people alive, and they even found Senior Sister Yinsha.
They also found precious minerals and many secret techniques.
Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief. The Saint Bandits should have retreated. He was not in danger now.
But no one knew where they had retreated to.
Moreover, he still remembered that figure. Perhaps that was the most dangerous thing in the Sea Fog Cave.
However, the figure didnât seem to care about the gains and losses of the moment.
With the Sea Fog Caveâs matter settled, it meant that the sect had some free hand on deck.
The Merit Hall would also recalculate the merits.
Three days later, the Merit Hall announced the new rankings, and Jiang Hao had dropped to third place.
âItâs still quite high.â
But it was still fine, as long as he wasnât first.
Returning to the mountain gate again, he overheard the seniors discussing the matter of the human-like spirit beast.
He didnât participate in the discussion. Now that the conflict in the Sea Fog Cave had ended, there would likely be progress in Senior Sister Luo Zhiâs matter.
The gathering might start as well.
Itâs just that some subsequent conversations caught his attention.
âThis human-like spirit beast is being valued so much. Do you think it might break through the mountain gate to get out? Itâs easy if itâs just us, but the formation over there is not that easy to break through.â Nan Yushu said.
The four of them were in the Golden Core Realm, but they werenât that weak.
âSpeaking of which, what happened to that Heavenly King from a couple of months ago? Didnât he fail to break through the mountain gate and was taken away?â Kong Hu asked.
âHeavenly King?â
Jiang Hao was puzzled. âSenior Brother, which Heavenly King is that?â
âOne of the Twelve Heavenly Kings, Hai Luo,â said Kong Hu.
Jiang Hao was speechless.
Jiang Hao recalled that King Hai Luo had disappeared suddenly. It was assumed that the Great Thousand God Sect and the End of All Things Sect might have caught him.
He thought Hai Luo might have gone to the Abyssal Sea, but he didnât expect him to come to the Heavenly Note Sect again.
âWhy?,
If Mu Longyue found out about it, he didnât know how he would feel. Eleven Heavenly Kings had joined forces to rescue King Hai Luo, only to have him return to his prison again.
Perhaps they would take him away again.
âIt seems like he was sent to the Lawless Tower. But is the Heavenly King so weak? I heard that an elder could easily suppress him.â Nan Yushu was puzzled. âI heard some senior brothers say that the Heavenly Kings werenât any less strong than the Sect Master. They might even be stronger than the Sect
Master.â
âCould he be a fake?â Xia Cun curiously asked.
Jiang Hao didnât say anything.
Only he knew why King Hai Luo might have become weaker.
He had his cultivation realm absorbed by the Lawless Tower.
He was confused as to why Hai Luo would return to the Lawless Tower.
âOr is it because of emotional distress that he wants to leave the position of Heavenly King?â
Jiang Hao knew that the person Hai Luo loved had betrayed him and disappeared. Her fate was still uncertain.
Perhaps he regretted it.
At noon, Jiang Hao, who was meditating, was suddenly startled.
He received a communication talisman.
Elder Baizhi asked him to come over.
At that point, others looked at him. They were unaware of the contents of the talisman.
âSeniors, I have to use up my rest time in advance,â Jiang Hao said apologetically.
âItâs okay. Urgent matters should be dealt with as soon as possible,â Nan Yushu said with a smile.
It was not a big deal anyway.
They knew that Jiang Hao was special, but it wasnât clear whether he was really a spy.
If he was a spy, someone must be behind it.
âThank you.â
After thanking them, Jiang Hao quickly left.
He only had an hour. Even if he could use up more of the time, it might not be seen favorably.
Although the seniors might not do anything bad to him, they would refuse to speak or interact with him in any way.
At the White Moon Lake, Senior Sister Zhou Chan stood guard at the gate.
âSenior Sister Zhou,â Jiang Hao politely said.
Zhou Chan was at the peak of the Golden Core Realm.
The first time he saw her, she was in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm.
Her progress was quite fast.
âJunior Brother Jiang, itâs been so long since I last saw you. I heard youâve already reached the Golden Core Realm,â said Zhou Chan with a smile.
âI was lucky,â Jiang Hao said calmly.
âJunior Brother Jiang, are you here to see Elder Baizhi?â Jiang Hao nodded.
Then, Zhou Chan led him ahead. âPlease follow me.â
âOkay.â Jiang Hao followed her.
He remembered that the first time he came here, Senior Sister Zhou had led the way. At that time, they had gone to see Elder Qian Xu.
That was thirteen years ago.
âBy the way, is there any update about Junior Sister Zhao?â Jiang Hao asked.
The beast hadnât mentioned anything lately, and he wasnât sure about the situation.
âNot yet.â Zhou Chan sighed sadly. âThat place is quite special. Master said that perhaps misfortune might turn into a blessing. But it depends on whether sheâs fortunate enough.â
Jiang Hao nodded. It seemed that the place was indeed extraordinary.
Several months had passed, and there was still no news.
After they reached Elder Baizhiâs pavilion, Senior Sister Zhou left the way they had come.
Elder Baizhi handed him a white scroll.
She asked him to open and read it..
