Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 597 - 597: Yeah, 1 1 m provoking you

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The people from the Blood Dragon Sect had arrived.

Amidst the fearful gazes of those around, they stepped into the Hundred

Weapons Tower.

They headed straight to find Zheng Xuanzhen.

Bang!

The door banged open. The middle-aged man in the lead froze in place.

Zheng Xuanzhen lay on the ground. He was dead.

The elderly man was still alive, but both his hands were severed. He looked terrified.

The middle-aged man in the lead felt nervous seeing them like this.

“Where is the culprit?” he asked angrily.

But no one answered him.

“Spread out and check the room. Find out who did this, ” he ordered.

Shortly after, a young man reported to him. “Vice Sect Master, I found a strange smiley face.”

“A smiley face?”

The man walked over and saw a smiley face on the table. It looked like it was smiling and crying at the same time.

He frowned. He had seen something like this before.

He then had someone tend to the elderly man’s injuries.

He wanted to know what had happened here.

In this city, it had been a long time since anyone dared to openly kill their people.

Jiang Hao had already left.

He now sat calmly in the inn. He drank his tea and took stock of his gains. Although Smiling San Sheng was arrogant, he wasn’t a fool.

When besieged by too many opponents, leaving was the wisest choice.

He already had a lot of information and had also earned a lot of spirit stones.

He had seventeen thousand spirit stones now, along with the halberd and two storage treasures.

“The people in this city are quite wealthy.”

In Zheng Xuanzhen’s storage treasure, there weren’t many treasures or spirit medicines, but there were thirty-eight thousand spirit stones.

This was the wealthiest Jiang Hao had seen so far.

‘I wonder where he hid the treasures and spirit medicines.’

Other than the spirit stones, everything else in the storage treasure was quite ordinary. Talismans, techniques, arrays, and so on.

The person at the peak of the Soul Ascension Realm was different.

He had two impressive treasures: a Three-Point Double-Edged Blade of Primordial Spirit level and a sledgehammer of Soul Ascension Realm level.

Both could be used.

There were also some pills and other miscellaneous items, but their value wasn’t that high.

As for the spirit stones, there were just over nine thousand.

Compared to Zheng Xuanzhen, it was quite less, but overall, the value of the treasures should exceed Zheng Xuanzhen ‘s.

‘It’s done.’

Jiang Hao couldn’t help but sigh.

He now had 65,365 spirit stones.

‘This trip was truly worthwhile.’

Unfortunately, he didn’t see a storage treasure on the bald man that he had killed.

Otherwise, it could have surpassed seventy thousand.

It seemed like a lot of spirit stones, but it still wasn’t enough.

He had asked the elderly man and found out that a ticket to the Chaos Stone Island cost around fifty thousand spirit stones.

If he went to buy from some second-hand resale channels, it would cost at least eighty thousand per ticket.

He couldn’t understand these people. ‘How can a ticket be so expensive?’ What kind of person could afford it?

He had a way to buy the ticket now, and he had already found out where to board.

It wasn’t here but on a remote island. The ticket was the entry permit to the island.

Jiang Hao saw many people flying in the air outside. They seemed to be looking for something.

‘Blood Dragon Sect?’

He had a rough understanding of the bald man’s background now.

The Blood Dragon Sect was not a sect located in the city. They only had a branch here.

The strength of the branch’s Vice Sect Master was at the middle stage of the Return to Void Realm.

Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised that in such a large city, the strongest was only at the Return to Void Realm. This was just the outskirts of the overseas region.

Strong cultivators would probably be gathered in the central sea area.

‘But I can’t entirely believe this. If the strongest is only at the Return to Void Realm, wouldn’t an individual in Immortal Ascension Platform take away all their resources?’

Jiang Hao shook his head and brushed off these thoughts.

‘The easiest way to obtain a ticket is through the Blood Dragon Sect, but I don’t have enough money now. I have to go sell some things and then make the trip.’ He planned to buy the ticket today.

In the afternoon, he continued selling things he had. He planned to visit the Blood Dragon Sect tonight to buy the tickets.

As for the matter of the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart, the senior had no knowledge of it.

He felt a bit disappointed.

But it was not a big deal. There were many people he could ask later.

At night, in the Blood Dragon Sect’s main hall, several people were seated.

“You still haven’t found him?” asked a man in a dark red robe.

The high-ranking members of the Blood Dragon Sect were openly killed, and they still hadn’t found the culprit.

For them, it was a thing of great shame.

It affected their control in the city.

“Not yet, but it is rumored that he is Smiling San Sheng,” said the burly man who had gone to the Hundred Weapons Tower before.

“Smiling San Sheng? Who’s that?” Many people had never heard this name. “Me?” Just as the burly man was about to explain, the door slowly opened.

A man in white robes, who was holding a fan, stepped in.

Someone had approached silently and listened to all their conversation without them knowing. It startled everyone.

At this moment, everyone except the leader remained seated. The others stood up and were on their guard.

Jiang Hao looked at the seven or eight people in front of him. He was unfazed.

He looked directly at the man in the center.

He wore a blood-red robe, and his body was as robust as a wild animal.

“Elder Xue Hu?”

“Smiling San Sheng?”

“You know of me?” said Jiang Hao. “Sorry. I’m very forgetful. I don’t know your names, Elders.”

“That’s alright. We haven’t met. Just heard about you from somewhere. Are you here to annihilate our entire sect?”

Xue Hu looked at the man in front of him.

The Heavenly Sea region was vast. It is divided into twelve heavenly domains.

Very few people knew about Smiling San Sheng.

The reason Xue Hu knew about him was because he had visited the southern region and had heard his name.

As far as he knew, this person was mad. He couldn’t be understood by common sense. He did what he pleased.

This person addressed him as “Elder.” He was indeed bold.

The others were apprehensive.

However, they saw that Smiling San Sheng was only at the early stage of the Return to Void Realm. They thought the Sect Master was mocking Smiling San Sheng by asking whether he was here to annihilate their sect.

“Smiling San Sheng, you killed our hall master in public. Are you provoking us?” a woman asked.

“Yeah. Do you have any objections to that?” Jiang Hao smiled with narrowed eyes.

“You…”

This answer left everyone at a loss for words.

“Our Hall Master Chen was just passing by, and you struck him mercilessly. Isn’t that a bit overdone?” asked another person.

“He didn’t line up. Isn’t that rude?” Jiang Hao said.

“Why should he line up?”

“Because everyone was lining up.”

“Even if he was wrong in what he did, he should have been handed over to our Blood Dragon Sect for judgment. What authority does an outsider like you have to pass such a judgment?” asked a young man angrily.

Jiang Hao used the fan to prop his chin up. He looked like he was actually reflecting on his past actions.

Then, he moved the fan a bit. There was a flash of the hidden blade.

The young man was startled. He tried to defend with all his might. However, his defensive treasure shattered before the blade, and his technique disintegrated.

Someone tried to help, but they couldn’t stop the blade from slashing through his neck.

In an instant, the head was severed from the body.

After that, Jiang Hao unfolded the fan and gently waved it twice. “I would much prefer it if children didn’t interrupt when two adults are speaking..”
