Chapter 537: The Lowest Rung of the Sect
....Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Under the clear sky, Jiang Hao sat cross-legged on the ground.
He used what he had learned from the nameless manual quietly and observed those who entered and exited the sect.
Guarding the mountain gate was a monotonous task, but it was also the one that involved the most encounters with others.
Occasionally, he could see a few cultivators with hidden realms.
However, there weren’t many of them.
Such individuals were extremely rare.
Those who liked to hide were generally those who specialized in alchemy, talisman crafting, or forging.
They could earn spirit stones, and the resources brought by cultivation weren’t that important to them.
As for those who had crossed to major realms, he hadn’t encountered any so far.
For those with higher cultivation than him, he could sense something unusual, but he couldn’t determine the details.
Half a month pa.s.sed, and Jiang Hao practiced the nameless manual all along.
Progress was not fast, but there were subtle changes every day.
Sometimes he could perceive deeper things from the fluctuations of spiritual energy, such as the patterns of power circulation, the intensity of spiritual energy, changes in the body, and so on.
He even felt that by opening his eyes and looking at the person opposite him, he could see through everything.
The more he felt this way, the more terrifying he found Hong Yuye to be.
Being with her required even more caution.
“Make sure he hasn’t left the sect.” A voice rang in Jiang Hao’s ears. He turned to look and found a group of people searching for something at the mountain gate.
“Members of the Thunder Fire Peak?” Xia Cun was curious.
“What are they doing?” Nan Yushu asked.
“I don’t know. It seems like they’re here to help guard the mountain gate,” Kong Hu said.
A short while later, the group arrived at Jiang Hao’s location.
“They don’t seem like disciples of the sect.”
Their strength was decent, with several at the Foundation Establishment
Realm and the rest at the Lifeblood Refinement Realm
At that moment, a middle-aged Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator arrived at the mountain gate. “Have you four seen a humanoid spirit beast leaving from here? If you have any information, our young master will generously reward you. If you know something but don’t report it, our young master will remember.”
“Oh?” Nan Yushu and the others were surprised.
Xia Cun smiled. “Who is your young master? Does he have the authority to question us?”
“The son of the Southern Peak King. Is he qualified enough to question you?” the middle-aged man said proudly.
“Definitely.” Nan Yushu nodded. “So, you’re not disciples of the sect?”
“Of course not. I am one of the ten first-cla.s.s guards of the young master. I only follow the young master’s orders,” the middle-aged man said briefly.
“Have you seen a humanoid spirit beast?”
“What kind of spirit beast is a humanoid one?” Kong Hu asked.
The middle-aged man frowned. “Answer what you’re asked, and don’t ask what you shouldn’t.”
“Well, we didn’t see anything like that,” Kong Hu said.
“Then, keep watch. If you see anything, report it immediately. You’re just the lowest rung of the sect who guard the gate. Understand who you can offend and who you can’t. Hope we’re clear on that.” The middle-aged man warned and left with his group.
Once they were gone, Jiang Hao saw three senior brothers and sisters chatting without paying any attention to the recent events.
He didn’t pay it much mind either and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
The next day, in the Thunder Fire Peak, a man in his thirties frowned.
Standing next to him was a man with graying hair.
“Many days have pa.s.sed. Why is there still no news?” Yu Wenjing said coldly.
“We can’t investigate many places in the Heavenly Note Sect, so the progress is slow. If we can invite someone with a high enough status, it should speed things up,” the man with graying hair said respectfully.
“But that’s not easy. The price to pay is not small. Unfortunately, I’m just an ordinary inner disciple. Otherwise, it wouldn’t come to this.” Yu Wenjing sighed.
In particular, in his family’s territory, he could be said to have had great influence.
However, at the Heavenly Note Sect, nothing mattered.
Even if Lord Nanyue was here himself, it wouldn’t matter. He was only his son, after all.
“Where are the people? Is there no one to report today?” he shouted angrily.
A fl.u.s.tered servant rushed in.
“Young… Young Master, something terrible has happened.” Yu Wenjing felt a s.h.i.+ver down his spine. “Speak.”
“Outside… outside…”
Seeing that the person was having trouble speaking, Yu Wenjing quickly walked outside with large strides.
But as soon as he stepped outside, he froze.
Outside the courtyard, the heads of his subordinates and guards were arranged in a neat line.
Each one had a look of horror.
This shocking scene made him step back in fear.
At this moment, he deeply understood the demonic sect.
His subordinates had offended someone, and those people hadn’t gone easy on them.
If he weren’t a disciple of the sect, he might very well be one of those heads.
A sense of powerlessness and fear spread throughout his body.
“Young Master, we need to seek help from someone with a high status. We must pay whatever price is necessary. The clues we’ve obtained are precious, and delaying any further could prove to be too late,” the man with graying hair said as he approached.
“Someone with a high status…” Yu Wenjing forced a bitter smile.
In the cultivation world, strength represented status.
That afternoon, while the guards at the mountain gate were still talking, a middle-stage Golden Core Realm cultivator approached with a group of people.
“Senior Brother Kong, Senior Brother Xia, Senior Sister Nan, and Junior Brother Jiang, greetings,” he said.
The four were puzzled as they didn’t recognize this person.
“I’m Wan Yanfeng, a True Disciple of the Thunder Fire Peak. We just came by to pay respects to you,” Wan Yanfeng said with a smile after introducing himself.
They felt confused. Why would a True Disciple come here?
Jiang Hao guessed it must be because of what had happened yesterday.
He could be certain that those four must have made a move last night.
As for what exactly happened, it was hard to say.
However, causing trouble with a True Disciple was quite unbelievable.
Of course, it was unheard of to do so even with a top disciple, let alone a branch elder.
This is how the Heavenly Note Sect operates.
Unless the person taking action had the strength to challenge the branch elder, no one dared to take the risk of harming any disciple.
Moreover, the head of the branch could modify the sect’s mission and have disciples killed outside. That was why Jiang Hao was always cautious.
“Junior Brother, you must be kidding. We’re just idling here. Is there anything we can a.s.sist you with?” Kong Hu asked.
“There is indeed something. I hope you, seniors, can inquire more when encountering suspicious individuals. If you come across a female spirit beast with a fishtail on a human body, please intercept them. My Junior Brother’s spiritual beast has been stolen. In return for this favor, I’ll owe you a favor, and at that time, I’ll give each of you a Heaven Rejuvenating Pill as a token of appreciation,” Wan Yanfeng said with a smile.
Jiang Hao and the others were surprised. It seemed all this was related to yesterday’s incident.
They could only agree.
The Heaven Rejuvenating Pill was of no use to them, but it could be sold for spirit stones.
A few hundred or even a few thousand was not a small amount..
