Chapter 129: Kill the enemy with one sword
This ti, Jiang Hao didn’t feel the space change.
Instead, he saw the surrounding scenery rapidly receding.
They were moving forward at a speed incomprehensible to ordinary cultivators.
At this rate, they might reach Tiantu City in an hour.
“Senior, do you want to enjoy the surrounding scenery?” Jiang Hao asked curiously, looking around.
“We might find clues to the secret whisper slate on the way, not just at the destination,” Hong Yuye said, still moving ahead.
“Have you inquired about Tiantu City?”
Jiang Hao was taken aback.
In that mont of distraction, Hong Yuye stopped, and a vast aura burst forth.
“Yes,” Jiang Hao imdiately nodded as she made her move.
He would have been sent flying if he was too late.
“Tell ,” Hong Yuye continued walking forward.
At this ti, they passed a tavern.
Hong Yuye put away her oil-paper umbrella and sat down in the tavern.
It seed she wanted to have a drink.
Seeing this, Jiang Hao brought out a teacup for her and explained/
“I learned from Mingyue Sect that Sha Po Lang might have captured so important people along with others. They are likely untrained children with good potential.”
“Did they say where?” Hong Yuye asked, holding the teacup.
“No, but those who would cooperate with Po Lang are likely their own people. Perhaps Zuo Lan from Tiantu City is among them. I just don’t know if their goal has anything to do with the Secret Whisper Slate,” Jiang Hao said.
There’s soone behind the Secret Whisper Slate, and the actions of the person who possesses it are likely commands from that soone behind the scenes.
Many people have co here to work for the Great Thousand Divine Sect.
They must be plotting sothing.
And there are people from the Great Thousand Divine Sect in the Tianyin Sect as well.
Is their goal the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower?
If that’s all, why would it attract the attention of Hong Yuye?
It doesn’t make sense. There must be sothing else.
“What would you two like to order?” the owner ca over and asked.
Jiang Hao glanced at him, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
The man appeared middle-aged and slightly overweight.
He seed like a simple, honest person, very ordinary.
But to Jiang Hao’s eyes, he was anything but ordinary; the man’s power was restrained, his spirit vibrant, and his breathing carried the scent of strength.
His physical vitality was robust; this was a Golden Core expert.
Probably in the mid to late stages of Golden Core.
“A bottle of good wine and a pot of hot water,” Jiang Hao replied.
“Alright, just a mont,” the owner responded with a smile.
At this mont, Jiang Hao looked around the tavern. It wasn’t just the owner present.
There was also a proprietress.
She seed like an ordinary woman, but her aura was turbulent.
She too was a Golden Core expert. Probably in the early stages of Golden Core.
The other two tables of guests included a family of three—a young couple with a little son dressed in coarse linen, eating coarse wheat buns.
They were truly ordinary people.
The other table had four n, one in the early stages of Golden Core and three at the peak of Foundation Establishnt.
Their auras were unstable, likely due to injuries, and their expressions were off as if they were on guard against sothing.
‘What are these people up to?’
Jiang Hao was sowhat puzzled.
However, he had no intention of getting involved.
Was Hong Yuye bringing him here a sign that he had to participate?
He sighed inwardly and decided to just watch and see.
When the hot water arrived, Jiang Hao took out the Snow After Spring tea and brewed it for Hong Yuye.
In an instant, spiritual energy wafted out, drawing glances from the n nearby.
Even the owner and his wife couldn’t help but sneak a peek.
‘Really now?’
Jiang Hao sighed to himself.
Perhaps for them, tea that costs fifty spirit stones a coin was considered a luxury.
If he took out the Azure Red Sky tea, would these people directly make a move?
Jiang Hao didn’t ponder further.
There was no answer.
He would have to go back to purchase Azure Red Sky.
Unable to refuse Hong Yuye, he had co to accept the situation.
Perhaps there would be so inco in the future.
He hoped it would fill the gap of the three thousand spirit stones owed to the Enforcent Peak.
Hong Yuye sipped the tea while Jiang Hao drank his wine.
The people nearby, although they glanced at them, made no other moves.
After drinking for a while, Jiang Hao saw that the family of three was about to leave.
“Daddy, can you buy a toy when we go back?” the little boy asked with anticipation.
The man, his face weathered, smiled and nodded.
“Sure.”
“You promised,” the little boy said with a smile.
The woman beside him seed a bit helpless but didn’t say anything.
The three of them were about to leave.
At that mont, three people approached them.
Two n and one woman, all emanating a crimson aura.
The leader, a man with a pale face and sowhat fierce features, said:
“The three of you stay here.”
He Chang blocked the path of the family of three.
“I need to use the Blood Soul Banner, and I hope the three of you will stay to contribute to the ritual.”
“Sir,” the man pulled his child back and said with a forced smile.
“We only have so small silver coins, all of which we’ll give to you, sir.”
He handed over all the money he had earned, hoping to ensure their safety.
Slap!
He Chang swatted away the silver in the man’s hand and said.
“Stay quiet on the side.”
With that, he pulled out a blood-red broadsword in his hand.
The blade was filled with the stench of fresh blood.
He swung the broadsword, intending to sever the legs of the three people in front of him.
The crimson aura surged instantly.
Seeing this terrifying object, the couple in shock instinctively hugged their child, as if trying to block the blow.
Clang!
Just as the large blade was about to strike the three individuals, Jiang Hao threw the cup in his hand, stopping the attacker.
The man wielding the blade was at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, and the man and woman behind him were both at the peak of the Foundation Establishnt stage.
Their aura carried a scent of blood, likely disciples from the Blood Fiend Sect in a distant region.
The Blood Fiend Sect was not significant and was considered a minor sect. The Tianyin Sect wouldn’t even bother to wipe out such a small faction.
A Golden Core cultivator was almost the pinnacle of combat power for such sects.
“Why must you make things difficult for ordinary people?” Jiang Hao spoke softly.
He didn’t want to ddle, but so things he couldn’t ignore.
Although he was part of the Demon Sect, he rembered well what things he could do and what he couldn’t.
If he couldn’t overpower the enemy, remaining silent was one thing.
However, having the power to intervene and disregard life was sothing he found difficult to do.
“Foundation Establishnt mid-stage?” He Chang looked at Jiang Hao with disdain, then turned his gaze to Hong Yuye.
“Foundation Establishnt late-stage? Her appearance is rather ordinary, but I just happen to need a cauldron, so I might as well take her with .”
At that mont, Hong Yuye, who was drinking tea, showed no change in expression.
However, Jiang Hao sighed inwardly.
Clang!
The Half-Moon saber was unsheathed.
The second form of the Heavenly Saber, Mountain Suppressor.
As the blade rose, the power of Myriad Great Mountains pressed down.
A re early Golden Core cultivator couldn’t withstand this terrifying force.
Whoosh!
The blade fell.
Clang!
The Half-Moon saber was sheathed.
And He Chang, in his terror, turned into a clump of blood and fell to the ground.
This sudden strike shocked everyone around.
The two Foundation Establishnt peak cultivators who followed He Chang retreated in fear and were about to flee.
However, Jiang Hao moved the Half-Moon saber again, and moonlight appeared.
Moon Slash.
With a swoosh, the heads of the two Foundation Establishnt peak cultivators separated from their bodies.
Seeing this, Jiang Hao turned to the three ordinary people and said, “Pick up your silver and go ho.”
“T-thank you, immortal,” the three people bowed to Jiang Hao, then quickly picked up their silver and left.
Jiang Hao didn’t care and continued to drink his tea.
“What made you take action?” Hong Yuye asked Jiang Hao as she drank her tea.
