Chapter 670: The Heavenly Note Sect Should Explain Themselves

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation      Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Back at the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao continued to tend to spirit herbs peacefully.

He didn’t need to worry about much nowadays. He just needed to handle changes that occurred in the garden, and nothing more. This included occasional friction in collaboration between the Spirit Herb Gardens from other branches and outstanding payments by disciples.

Although it wasn’t as bad as before, there were still some issues.

For now, Cheng Chou was handling them, and they weren’t serious enough for Jiang Hao to get involved. One inner sect disciple was enough to take charge of the Spirit Herb Garden.

Thankfully, Cheng Chou didn’t contend with him.

Time passed, and half a month later, in mid-June, Jiang Hao heard news that the Sect Master had gone on an expedition and returned, but her condition didn’t seem to be great. They also brought back some people, but Jiang Hao didn’t know who they were.

This news caught Jiang Hao’s attention, but since Liu Xingchen wasn’t around, he couldn’t find out more. He decided to visit the Lawless Tower for more information.

‘It’s been a while since I visited Zhuang Yuzhen and the others.’

The sect kept Zhuang Yuzhen because of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower. He might still be able to contact Senior Dan Yuan.

However, because he refused to divulge who had sent him, he remained stuck on the fifth floor.

Heavenly King Hai Luo chose to stay on the fifth floor. As for Nangong Yue, her intentions were uncertain.

In the afternoon, Jiang Hao arrived at the Lawless Tower. Unfortunately, he didn’t encounter any familiar seniors who could tell him about the people brought back.

Once he reached the fifth floor, he heard Nangong Yue’s voice.

“Heavenly King, when will your master come? It’s been months. Isn’t he going to question you anymore?” she asked.

“Ridiculous! Since when did this king need a master?”

“Disciple Zhuang, when will Heavenly King Hai Luo’s master come and visit?” Nangong Yue asked.

“He’ll come when he remembers us,” Zhuang Yuzhen said.

Zhuang Yuzhen had some experience with this matter. When Jiang Hao entered the room, he thought that these three seniors seemed to be getting along well.

They had been talking, but as soon as Jiang Hao entered, they all fell silent.

Nangong Yue appeared nervous. She wasn’t sure why she felt frightened by this person. It must be the influence of the other two.

In the past, no matter who came, Heavenly King Hai Luo always responded with a stinky attitude as though he was invincible. But when this person appeared in front of him, his whole demeanor changed.

“It’s been too long,” said Jiang Hao and bowed politely.

These people were seniors, after all. It was best to be polite to them.

“Indeed,” Zhuang Yuzhen said.

“I have a question I want to ask you,” Nangong Yue immediately said. “In return, I’ll tell you a secret.”

Jiang Hao looked at her.

He wasn’t interested in this secret. It could bring trouble.

His current lifestyle suited him just fine. A hundred more years with such peace would be perfect. Once he got involved in secrets, trouble would come knocking one after the other.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? If you want to know something, you can ask or request something,” Nangong Yue said. She was slightly irritated when she saw Jiang Hao’s indifferent face.

“Senior, if you have any questions, you can ask Senior Sister Yinsha. She knows everything,” Jiang Hao replied helplessly.

He knew what Nangong Yue wanted to know, and Senior Sister Yinsha was the right person to provide that information.

“No. She can’t speak about it. She can’t reveal anything to anyone,” Nangong Yue said.

Jiang Hao was surprised. That must be the reason why she had been hounding him with the question relentlessly.

But if Senior Sister Yinsha couldn’t say anything, then revealing the secret about what the Saint Bandits did would be counterproductive.

Others might not know as much about the Saint Bandits and their goal, but this person definitely did.

It was better not to mention anything about Heaven Lock.

“I don’t understand. A secret is no longer a secret if you don’t say it out loud. Who knows if it’s true or not? Just say it outright,” Heavenly King Hai Luo said dismissively.

“Is it still a secret if you say it out loud?” Nangong Yue asked in disdain.

“You are ignorant,” Heavenly King Hai Luo said.

Nangong Yue was speechless.

Jiang Hao didn’t pay much attention to their bickering.

Instead, he approached Zhuang Yuzhen and asked if anything had happened at the Lawless Tower lately. Zhuang Yuzhen was always calm and calculative. He must have kept an eye on things.

“I heard that someone from the Heavenly Tower was captured, and they’re likely on one of the upper floors right now,” Zhuang Yuzhen said as he pointed toward the ceiling.

Jiang Hao was surprised. It was someone from the Heavenly Tower!

But he didn’t ask further.

He asked about the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and how Zhuang Yuzhen had learned about it.

“From an anonymous person,” Zhuang Yuzhen said. His repose was the same as before.

Jiang Hao didn’t ask further. He knew that the information had no impact on him, but Hong Yuye would take action.

He didn’t mention anything about Qu Zhong. After so many years in the tower, Zhuang Yuzhen seemed to have settled down and no longer cared about it.

As for his cultivation realm, he remained at the early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm. Heavenly King Hai Luo was still in the late stage of the same realm. Nangong Yue had fallen to the early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm as well.

It seemed that Heavenly King Hai Luo had the best control over his cultivation out of the three.

“We’re currently facing a problem,” Zhuang Yuzhen suddenly said.

“What happened?” Jiang Hao asked. He hadn’t heard any news about these people lately.

Senior Sister Yinsha and the others couldn’t inform him about it, and Liu Xingchen was nowhere to be seen.

“We are at an… impasse. This situation doesn’t benefit anyone. So, your people have made a suggestion,” Zhuang Yuzhen said earnestly. “They’ve proposed a method for restoring our cultivation. It involves going out every month to teach disciples or help the disciple who seeks guidance. The number of problems we solve will correspond to how much we can improve our cultivation as a reward.’

“How is that calculated?” Jiang Hao asked.

“The people of the Lawless Tower have the final say,” Heavenly King Hai Luo said with a sneer.

Jiang Hao didn’t find it surprising. The Heavenly Note Sect was always like this.

Zhuang Yuzhen and the others would make contributions, and the sect would decide how much to reward them based on their mood.

“Have you agreed to this?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Not yet, but we’ll probably agree in the future,” Zhuang Yuzhen said.

“You’ll agree? The Heavenly Note Sect truly doesn’t regard us as human beings. They keep exploiting us. When we become worthless, we’ll be disposed of,” Nangong Yue said coldly.

Jiang Hao nodded in agreement.

She was right. The Heaven Note Sect constantly exploited the captives in the Lawless Tower.

When thev lost their cultivation realms. thev were sent to the mines to work.

After they advanced, they were once again sent to the Lawless Tower. It was a vicious cycle.

Zhuang Yuzhen paid no attention to Nangong Yue. He believed that she would understand in the future.

“If you reveal everything you know, the Heavenly Note Sect might consider contacting the Divine Corpse Sect for you,” Jiang Hao said.

“And then?” Zhuang Yuzhen shook his head and chuckled. “What would I, as a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator, do when I return?”

Jiang Hao frowned. With his Corpse Heart, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to restore his cultivation realm, unless he knew that his Corpse Heart was already lost.

With a sigh, Jiang Hao decided not to ask any more questions and got up to leave.

“Wait!” Nangong Yue hurriedly said. “Are you practicing the Blood Wish Path? I know a secret about the Blood Wish Path.”

Jiang Hao still didn’t stop.

Nangong Yue was anxious.. “Blood pool! The Heavenly Note Sect has a Blood

Pool! “
