Chapter 494: We Condemn the Blackheaven Sect

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Hao let out a sigh of relief.

The damage to people overseas was severe, but the problem would likely subside in the future.

At least, it wouldn’t affect his stall.

As for whether they would resent the Heavenly Note Sect, that had nothing to do with him.

He could simply avoid going overseas in the future.

Thinking about how he had offended the Divine Corpse Sect in the northern region before, offending some overseas people was nothing.

These overseas people were top-tier but couldn’t be compared to major sects.

They might unite. If they did that, their influence would be similar to that of major sects.

‘When will the Heavenly Note Sect be recognized as a major sect in the southern region? Then no one will dare to look down on us.’

After all, they had only a few hundred years of heritage, and very few people had heard of them.

Their reputation was far from significant.

After a visit to the Bright Moon Sect, their reputation had slightly improved, but it still needed time to be established properly.

For now, they were still a remote sect that was not exposed to the wider world.

“Have you had contact with the people overseas lately?” Liu Xingchen asked.

“I met a few while selling talismans,” Jiang Hao said truthfully. “I wonder if that person is still okay,” Liu Xingchen said with a smile.

Jiang Hao was curious too.

After talking for a while, Liu Xingchen left.

Recent events seemed to pique his interest.

The people of the Heavenly Note Sect had been suppressed by the rules of the sect for a long time.

The disciples within the sect dared not kill each other, but they would not hesitate to offend other sects, especially when the outsiders were so brazen. Even the higher-ups would turn a blind eye.

If someone needed to be held responsible, the unlucky ones would bear the brunt.

Anyway, Jiang Hao didn’t think anyone would find him unless the Heavenly Essence Soul Modeling Mirror was deployed.

However, the overseas people were not important enough to trigger the use of that artifact. The incidents hadn’t even enraged the Law Enforcement Hall, let alone the whole sect.

They were even inferior to the Divine Corpse Sect.

During that time, the strongest from the Divine Corpse Sect could threaten the entire Heavenly Note Sect, but the overseas visitors had nowhere near that level of power.

Everything was calm for now, so Jiang Hao went to the Spirit Herb Garden to collect bubbles and wait for further developments.

Bang!

The teacup was flung onto the ground.

This was the courtyard of a distinguished guest of the Heavenly Note Sect.

At this moment, a middle-aged man was furious as if he could erupt with the strongest aura at any moment.

“Heavenly King, are you really going to the Blackheaven Sect to question them?” an old man nearby asked.

“Question them?” The Heavenly King was unmoved. “Doesn’t everyone know the truth in their hearts?”

Going to the Blackheaven Sect to question them would make them a laughingstock.

“Aren’t we already ridiculed enough?”

The others lowered their heads and dared not say much.

“Why are you silent? Didn’t you all say you wanted to test the Heavenly Note Sect? But now, you’re all quiet. Who was the one who suggested it?” The Heavenly King glared at them.

Beside him were four people. They were the strongest group of practitioners on this trip.

“It was Vice Commander Xiang,” the old man said.

“Where is he? How can he not be present after such an incident has happened?” asked the Heavenly King.

The old man lowered his head and whispered, “Vice Commander Xiang has disappeared. ”

“Disappeared?” The Heavenly King was stunned.

A chill ran through their hearts.

At noon, they found Xiang’s body by the river.

The next day, the Heavenly King met with Elder Baizhi of the Heavenly Note Sect and emphasized that the Blackheaven Sect was acting arrogantly and would pay the price if they ever came overseas.

Baizhi expressed that the Blackheaven Sect had always been like this. She also criticized the Blackheaven Sect for lacking principles.

Then, both of them expressed their seriousness about their collaboration this time.

The Heavenly Note Sect admitted that there was a loophole in their management which had allowed the Blackheaven Sect to take advantage of the situation. Now that the loophole had been plugged in, such incidents would never happen again.

The Heavenly King stood up to express his gratitude, and finally, he said that if the Heavenly Note Sect had such sincerity, they should get a bit more share from the gains of the Sea Fog Cave expedition.

Upon learning of the situation, Jiang Hao knew that the Heavenly King had yielded.

He had taken the initiative to compromise to make sure the collaboration was smooth.

He also hinted that if the Heavenly Note Sect went overseas in the future, they wouldn’t have an easy time.

He spoke of the Blackheaven Sect, but he was actually referring to the Heavenly Note Sect.

‘We should be more cautious when going overseas in the future.’

If they kept making enemies like this, they couldn’t go to various major regions outside.

They would carry the enmity wherever they went.

But he could conceal his identity. For example, he could pretend to be a disciple of Azure Mountain. He had a token from there.

He could also pretend to be a disciple of the Bright Moon Sect, as he had the jade pendant from there.

During these days, Jiang Hao had also been paying attention to the Sea Fog

Cave.

It was confirmed that the Heavenly King had received the information from Liu and knew about using blood and flesh as bait.

However, whether they could understand the implications of it would depend entirely on them.

He couldn’t explain it to them.

If he talked about creatures in the cave guiding the way, it would be traced back to him because only the people from the Lawless Tower knew about it, and they had told him about it.

They transported a large amount of flesh and blood.

“The clue you mentioned is related to flesh and blood?” Baizhi asked. She was puzzled. ‘How could this be used as bait?’

“Yes, but whether it will work or not, that remains to be seen.” The Heavenly King nodded.

He was middle-aged in appearance, with a bit of stubble.

In fact, he didn’t know the exact situation either. This was the only information they had.

“It’s been some time,” Baizhi said.

She wasn’t impatient. She just had no idea what they were waiting for.

“Wait a little longer. It needs some more time,” the Heavenly King said.

He didn’t exactly know how much time was needed, as it wasn’t mentioned in the intelligence he received.

His source had hinted that this method originated from a very mysterious person and wouldn’t go wrong.

After waiting for about three days, Ah Zha suddenly became restless.

This surprised Baizhi. “What do you want to say?” “Give me the flesh and blood, and I can do it,” Ah Zha said.

“You can do what?” Baizhi asked.

“I know the way inside and can find people by their scent,” Ah Zha said anxiously.

“Why are you in such a hurry?” Baizhi noticed something was off.

“I… I just saw the flesh and blood. It’s going to rot,” Ah Zha said.

“You want flesh and blood? Fine.” Baizhi smiled. “Sign this, and I’ll give you as much as you want, but on the condition that you behave.”

Baizhi spread the scrolls in front of Ah Zha.

“What is this?” Ah Zha asked.

“Our trust treaty.” Baizhi smiled.

The Heavenly King furrowed his brow. Was she trying to enslave the creature?

“You’ll deceive me. I won’t sign,” Ah Zha said.

“I’m not in a hurry,” Baizhi said calmly.

At this moment, Ah Zha became increasingly restless. It constantly looked toward the depths of the sea fog.

Baizhi didn’t care whether the creature submitted or not. She realized that they had found the clue needed to make the creature obey.

It turned out that the creatures in the cave knew how to navigate inside the cave and could find missing people.

Moreover, the flesh and blood pieces might be causing the creature’s restlessness because competition had arrived.

“Everyone, get ready,” Baizhi said.

The Heavenly King also realized that this was the clue to guide them further.

The person who provided this information was truly exceptional.

Unfortunately, they loved playing mysterious.

“I’ll sign,” Ah Zha said anxiously. “But you must promise to keep your word.”

“Of course.” Baizhi smiled sweetly.

Overseas, Chi Tian sat in his room and looked outside.

Recently, many people had gone to the southern region.

The Blood Shadow Sect was also in the south, but he wasn’t planning to go back there.

There would be an opportunity in the future.

He just didn’t know why, but he felt like more people were visiting him lately.

“It’s probably just an illusion.”

Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about it.

He had completely changed his appearance now. No one could find him..
