Chapter 364: Do You Want Us to Comply With You Every Time?

At White Moon Lake, the black-robed woman arrived to report on the developments.

“How is it going?” Baizhi asked.

“Mu Qiu has already been sent to the Lawless Tower. He came here for the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl. Could this pearl be in the vicinity of our sect?” the black-robed woman asked.

Baizhi lowered her head.

In fact, the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl had always been in the Heavenly Note Sect. It was only recently taken away, but they still didn’t know who had taken it.

“Find a way to extract more information from Mu Qiu. His value lies there,” Baizhi said.

“Yes.” The black-robed woman nodded.

Baizhi was somewhat worried. If the other person had reached this point, it meant they had made some progress.

“By the way, also find out how many people he encountered and who he cooperated with,” Baizhi said.

They couldn’t take the matter lightly.

If the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl erupted, the Heavenly Note Sect would be doomed.

“Understood.” The black-robed woman nodded. “Should we postpone dealing with Zhuang Yuzhen?”

Baizhi fell silent for a moment. They wanted to find out who the mysterious person was from Zhuang Yuzhen. However, there had been no progress so far, so it might be reasonable to hold off for now.

“Go ask them about their level of knowledge regarding the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl,” Baizhi said.

These people had some use after all.

After Jiang Hao and his group killed a group of demons, they took a break.

Due to the large number of demons, it was the first time they had cooperated.

Problems kept arising. Yi Wen and Qi Xian were injured.

“You’re all at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and yet you all are quite useless,” said Hu Kai and scoffed.

Yi Wen and Qi Xian were furious. If Hu Kai hadn’t charged recklessly, they would have been able to deal with the monster properly without getting injured.

If the four of them hadn’t jumped in to help, Hu Kai would have been severely injured. He had the nerve to say they were useless!

However, they didn’t say anything in return. Instead, they quietly restored their cultivation.

Jiang Hao sat at the edge and remained vigilant about his surroundings.

The current demons were powerful and were mostly at the late and peak stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Luckily, they lacked intelligence, so it was easy to deal with.

Jiang Hao had thought that they would split up and act individually. But, for now, they could only stick together.

In the early morning hours, Jiang Hao, who was patrolling the surroundings, took out the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and felt some commotion within it.

He appraised it and found that the seal would last for only forty-three years.

‘How did they manage that?’

Jiang Hao was puzzled. Normally, to affect the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, one needed to be contaminated by it. And usually, those people didn’t survive for long.

‘Are the traces of great luck this impressive?’

He sealed it again with the Universe in a Palm Technique.

Previously, he used it once a day. Now he needed to use it more times to prevent the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl from breaking the seal.

Only when the pearl was sealed for the duration of forty-four years did he put it away.

However, using a technique like this had a significant impact on his condition.

It was already daylight.

Yi Wen and the others had also mostly recovered. The five of them ventured further inside.

“If you can’t handle it, just stand there and watch. It’s better than getting in the way.” Hu Kai stared at Yi Wen and the others.

They didn’t say anything.

This time, they didn’t encounter many enemies, and cleaning up the demons went rather smoothly.

Three days later, An Jing and Qi Xian started to get to know each other better. Yi Wen also grew closer to them.

Jiang Hao sat alone at the side. They occasionally greeted him.

He always responded politely. He didn’t want to offend these people.

An Jing treated him as if it was their first meeting and paid him no attention.

He appraised her and found that she didn’t hold any special malice toward him. She didn’t care about Yun Ruo nor about the Pavilion Master finding a vessel.

“These demons are quite strong this time. When I came here before, it wasn’t like this,” Yi Wen said.

They discussed some matters related to the Devil’s Den.

They were also amazed at the large-scale activities of the Devil’s Den recently.

Jiang Hao sat on the side and listened to them quietly. He hoped he could get some useful information from them.

His attention had been on the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl these past few days. He felt the danger gradually closing in.

Listening to these people talk about normal things eased his mind a bit.

“This is the place where we rest. I’m going to cultivate. Can you all keep quiet?” shouted Hu Kai.

The three people who had been talking looked at him. Everyone fell silent.

Even if they did speak, it was in hushed tones.

Jiang Hao could only close his eyes and rest.

Tonight, he wasn’t on patrol, so he could just sleep.

However, he didn’t dare to let his guard down. He remained vigilant about those around him.

He knew that someone nearby was affecting the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl. He didn’t know who it was and didn’t want to take any chances.

Two more days pa.s.sed, and Jiang Hao once again used another Heaven Secrets Hidden Talisman. That would decrease the probability of him being detected

even more.

Boom!

Jiang Hao killed a demon.

The mission proceeded smoothly, and the only thing to worry about was when that person would secretly arrive.

Killing the demons went well, but the relations.h.i.+p between the people in the group became somewhat tense.

During the night, Hu Kai ate the prey he hunted and drank his wine. “Good wine!”

Jiang Hao felt a thick aura from him. It seemed that drinking and eating was a form of cultivation for him.

“Senior Brother Hu, can’t you keep your voice down? We need to cultivate in peace too,” An Jing said.

“If you want to cultivate, go further away. This is where we all stay. How can we stay quiet just for your sake? You can’t expect everyone to do what you want all the time,” said Hu Kai.

“You!” Silent Fairy said. “A few days ago, you were shouting at us to be quiet!”

“Is that all you guys do? Bicker over trivial matters? I’m always at the forefront. Why don’t you care about that?” Hu Kai said.

“Who asked you to rush ahead? You cause trouble for us every time.” Yi Wen also stood up.

“Heh! This is ridiculous!” Hu Kai looked at Yi Wen and the others disdainfully. “You didn’t say anything when we were fighting. Now that the fight’s over, suddenly you’re so bold.”

The three of them looked furious.

Jiang Hao just watched. He didn’t join in.

He closed his eyes to rest and thought about the matter of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl.

As the Heaven Secrets Hidden Talisman expired, the person drew closer and closer.

Once that person got near him, he would be finished.

They pressed forward.

In early August, Jiang Hao opened his eyes after taking a break.

He took out the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and appraised it.

[Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl: A magic treasure of providence. Sealed by the Universe in a Palm Technique. It will automatically break free from the seal after 25 years. If left unsealed, it will gradually spread misfortune and cause suffering and death. It is currently resonating with the rare Body of Misfortune and can break the seal at any time. In the sealed state, the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl can suppress curses.]

‘Body of Misfortune?’

Jiang Hao looked around. He didn’t believe that anyone who resonated with the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl could survive.

The longer they delayed, the weaker the other person would become.

They might even die.

However, he couldn’t continue waiting..
