Chapter 559: Unexpectedly Killed
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Hao looked at the person in front of him. He was unsure of what to say.
He truly was just a gatekeeper.
His status and position were not that high.
Some of the invited guests could cause significant trouble if offended.
But if he let someone in like this and something went wrong, it would be his responsibility.
However, if the person really had a formidable background, it would be equally troublesome to stop them.
âFriend, which branch invited you?â Jiang Hao asked politely. âI can deliver a message to them and have them come to receive you.â
âWhat? Donât you believe me?â The man looked at him disdainfully. âI made it this far. Doesnât that prove everything?â
âBut a token is required to enter this gate,â Jiang Hao said.
He didnât want to be involved, but fate had decided it would be him today.
These people were the most difficult. Couldnât they just show their tokens?
If they didnât want that, the least they could do was wait till he called the branch disciple who invited him.
But this man didnât budge.
He just asked whether Jiang Hao believed him or not.
âDoes everyone need a token to enter?â Murong Jing asked. âIf your eldersâ partners are from other sects, would you still stop them because they donât have a token? You could just nod and allow them to enter.â
Jiang Hao looked at the man in confusion.
Was he here to demonstrate his superiority in the Heavenly Note Sect?
An elderâs partner would likely be at least at the Return to Void or higher realms. Who would dare to stop them?
If the person in front of them was an Immortal Ascension Realm expert, Jiang Hao would have to ask relevant questions. He was helpless.
Even if he was only at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm, he couldnât back down.
âPerhaps, friend, you can try contacting someone inside the gate. If itâs not convenient, you can give me a name, and Iâll help you get in touch,â Jiang Hao said politely.
âDo you have authority here?â Murong Jing sneered.
Jiang Hao remained silent.
âAre you adamant about not letting me in?â Murong Jing asked again.
Jiang Hao was just doing his duty. But after a short while, two people flew from a distance.
One was wearing the Blackheaven Sect attire, and the other was wearing the Heavenly Note Sect attire.
Both of them were young and very powerful. They were both at the Soul Ascension Realm.
âJunior Brother Murong, why are you still outside?â the Blackheaven Sect expert asked.
âI wanted to go in, but unfortunately, someone doesnât intend to let me in.â Murong Jing pointed at Jiang Hao.
The others looked at him.
In response, Jiang Hao could only explain that he was only asking for a token.
âIâll take him in,â the Heavenly Note Sect expert said.
Jiang Hao had no choice but to step aside.
âWhy arenât you demanding tokens now?â Murong Jing asked. âIf you donât want it, Iâll just go in.â
Jiang Hao remained silent.
He could only watch as they left.
Later, he returned to his position and con tinued to wait for the next group of
people.
Nan Yushu and others nearby were done with their cultivation, but they didnât dare speak up in front of such powerful experts.
They could only watch Jiang Hao being ridiculed.
At night, some of the Blackheaven Sect members gathered together.
They seemed dissatisfied with the gatekeepers of the Heavenly Note Sect.
âThe gatekeepers of the Heavenly Note Sect seem to have quite an attitude.â
âYeah, they wouldnât let me in earlier. Is this how they treat guests?â Murong Jing spoke up.
âDo the gatekeepers of the Heavenly Note Sect have a big reputation? I didnât see them speaking up in front of Senior Brother Luo.â
âWhich one are you talking about?â a woman asked.
âThe one in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm. I donât know his name,â Murong Jing said.
âHis name is Jiang Hao. I know him, and I also know where he lives. Do you want to go and teach him a lesson?â said a woman with a mole on her eye.
âHow do you know where he lives?â another woman asked.
âForget about that. Should we go or not? Letâs go out tomorrow and go in again to see if he still dares to be arrogant,â said the woman with the mole.
âJust teaching him a lesson? Too polite. This is a demonic sect. Itâs okay to be a little dramatic. Later, I will go and crush his mouth and severely damage his cultivation. Letâs see if he dares to be arrogant then,â Murong Jing said. âIn the demonic path, anyone who offends is punished,â said the woman with the mole.
Some others were a bit worried.
âIs this really appropriate?â
However, their voices were drowned out.
âThen, letâs set off now. Junior Sister, lead the way,â Murong Jing said with a playful smile.
A group of people was about to set off to cleanse evil and uphold righteousness.
But before they could move, a figure suddenly descended.
He stood in front of Murong Jing and, with lightning-fast speed, swung a blade.
He used the Demonic Sound Slash.
Boom!
Murong Jing hadnât even reacted yet and was already killed by a single strike.
Blood splattered.
Everyone else was stunned in place.
When they finally reacted, the person had already taken away Murong Jingâs storage magic treasure and other treasures from his body.
Only then did everyone realize what had happened.
They started to flee. Most of them rushed toward their seniorâs residence. The woman with the mole was a little surprised and was about to follow everyone.
But as she tried to leave, she suddenly felt the surroundings go quiet.
She was the only one in the entire forest. She knew she was being targeted.
âWhoâs there? Show yourself.â
The surroundings fell silent.
âWho do you think you are? Iâm a disciple of the Blackheaven Sect. Killing me will definitely cause a conflict between the two sects. YouâŠâ Before she could finish her words, a long blade swept across her neck.
In the end, she didnât know how or why she died.
Jiang Hao frowned.
This person was an undercover agent from the Heavenly Saint Sect. Originally, she was in the Blackheaven Sect but unexpectedly came to the Heavenly Sound Sect.
So, he was trying to incite some people to kill him to explore the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.
âIt seems like there arenât many undercover agents from the Heavenly Saint Sect left in the Heavenly Note Sect.â
In order to ensure peace in the future, he could only make the other person give up this idea.
After taking away the Heavenly Cauldron, Jiang Hao looked at Murong Jingâs body in a daze.
He wasnât the one who killed this person.
By the time he arrived, it was already too late.
He didnât even get to see the person who had acted.
He had arrived to teach these people a lesson to show them that this was a demonic sect, not an immortal sect like theirs.
But it seemed like someone didnât think so. The unknown person had used the Demonic Sound Slash to frame him.
âI didnât expect a simple matter to become so complicated.â
Jiang Hao sighed and turned to leave.
Later, he heard a roar.
The aura expanded. It indicated a Soul Ascension Realm cultivation.
Jiang Hao felt helpless.
He didnât actually kill the person, and he had no idea who was so brazen.
But this other person certainly didnât act on his behalf. If that were the case, why use the Demonic Sound Slash?
He didnât know how things would unfold tomorrow.
Back in the courtyard, Jiang Hao sighed.
The traitorâs storage treasure was virtually empty. There were only about a hundred spirit stones.
If he hadnât noticed the suspicious expression of the other party, he would have missed it.
It seemed that there were quite a few undercover agents from the Blackheaven Sect, and it was possible they were deliberately sent to the Heavenly Note Sect.
âMaster, the fish is looking for you again.â The spirit beast ran in holding the green fish.
It seemed like it wanted to say something. Its mouth was opening and closing..
