Chapter 52: Calculated
“Who else?” Jiang Hao continued to record nas in the register.
“Luoxia Sect, Bei Xue,” another cold female voice spoke up.
Luoxia Sect? Jiang Hao noted it down without showing any reaction, then turned to Lu ng.
“Lu Junior Sister, this one is for you.”
“Okay,” Lu ng nodded.
“Xuantian Sect, Situ Jian,” a smiling young man said.
The sowhat inconspicuous man next to him added.
“Xuantian Sect, Shangguan Wen.”
Looking at these two, Jiang Hao directed his gaze at Mo Du and said,
“Junior Brother Mo, take Shangguan Wen. I’ll take Situ Jian to the mine later.”
In his perception, Situ Jian and Shangguan Wen were likely the most dangerous of the two.
JShangguan Wen was easy to overlook, and Jiang Hao worried that danger could co unexpectedly.
For his own safety, he had to separate them.
After Mo Du nodded, Jiang Hao reminded him.
“Keep a close eye on this person, don’t be careless.”
Mo Du nodded, not taking it too seriously, and even found Jiang Hao to be a bit long-winded.
Halfway there, Jing Ru suddenly fell to the ground, pressing her hands against it.
Seeing this, Jing Lin was about to pull her up, but Jiang Hao stopped him.
Such an obvious action made him wonder if she thought he was blind.
If Wei Lie were here, he might have slapped her already.
He could ignore what these people were planning to do, but he couldn’t overlook such blatant mistakes.
As the person in charge, if he allowed such simple tasks to go wrong, his future situation would certainly be worse.
He took out a Half-Moon blade and, using the scabbard, pressed it against Jing Ru’s hand, saying, “Shall I chop off your hand, or will you hand it over yourself?”
The atmosphere suddenly beca tense.
Jiang Hao observed the girl in front of him; her aura did not change, which might indicate not restraint but side effects.
Although she had cultivation, fully mobilizing it would likely take ti.
Finally, Jing Ru stared at Jiang Hao and handed over two transparent and tiny talismans.
Taking the talismans, Jiang Hao examined them and found that they were made of special materials and were of high quality.
One was a Mountain Moving Talisman, and the other was a Nine Heavens Thunder Talisman—both high-level talismans.
‘With such tactics, do they really think they can do sothing? Or did they let find out on purpose?’
Puzzled, Jiang Hao sternly ordered, “Search them.”
“You dare?”
Jing Ru glared coldly at Jing Lin, who was about to start the search.
“Those who resist will be executed on the spot,” Jiang Hao said coldly.
He was already considering how to report the situation with these four people and pass the trouble on to soone else.
Now that he had these two talismans, he had a reason.
“Don’t be angry; we’ll cooperate,” Situ Jian said with a smile.
Shangguan Wen and Bei Xue of the Luoxia Sect both raised their hands to comply.
Jing Ru clenched her teeth but said nothing more.
As for the difference between n and won, Jiang Hao didn’t care.
Being too nice to these people, it seems they might take a mile if given an inch.
In a mont, the three were searched thoroughly.
Jiang Hao glanced at the four prisoners below and continued.
Jing Ru gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with anger, while Bei Xue showed no emotion.
On the contrary, Shangguan Wen and Situ Jian seed relaxed and at ease.
Only after confirming there were no issues did they send the people to the mining field.
Watching the others enter the mine, Jiang Hao also walked with Situ Jian into the mine to get a general understanding of it and to assign work.
“Are you a true disciple of the Demon Sect? That’s really impressive,” Situ Jian flattered along the way.
“You don’t seem to care much about being here,” Jiang Hao casually said.
Situ Jian replied indifferently.
“In the Xuantian Sect, my status is not low. According to what you said, the sect should co back to redeem .”
“Then you’d better mine well,” Jiang Hao said expressionlessly.
He was now observing the surroundings.
There weren’t many people on the outskirts of the mine; most were concentrated inside.
He had roughly looked over the structure here.
It was intricate and confusing, making it easy to get lost and also easy to kill soone.
Jiang Hao was worried that soone might co after him without anyone noticing.
Not long after entering the mine, he saw a purple bubble.
When he passed by the bubble, a prompt appeared on the panel.
【Divine Ability Fragnt 1】
Indeed, there were gains to be had by coming in.
Walking all the way to the back, he saw more bubbles, both white and green.
【Ordinary Spirit Spear 1】
【Spirit 1】
【Strength 1】
【Endurance 1】
Feeling the long-missed improvent, Jiang Hao relaxed a bit.
At least he knew that mining could also yield bubbles, but he wasn’t sure if it was on the spot or the next day.
Unfortunately, the mine was dangerous, not just because of undercover agents, but also because of the prisoners in the mining field.
They were all ticking ti bombs.
The arrival of Situ Jian and the others might not be the first batch, nor necessarily the last.
In any case, he had to go and warn the mine’s managent.
To push the trouble away.
Snap!
Wei Lie slamd his hand on the table and stood up.
“Such sneaky actions should not be tolerated! They should be killed on the spot, or they’ll beco a disaster sooner or later.”
“You didn’t personally search them? Didn’t you see that they couldn’t even detect such a problem? What could they possibly find during a search?”
“You were just put in charge, and you’ve already made such an oversight?”
Inside the managent building, Jiang Hao stood quietly; he had handed over the talisman and explained the situation.
Then he was t with a barrage of criticism from Wei Lie.
Of course, while a mistake was a mistake, as a disciple of Duanqing Cliff, they couldn’t punish him.
Especially since this couldn’t really be considered a mistake.
At that mont, there were three managers in the managent building.
Sitting in the middle was the powerful Wu Yuanwu, who just listened quietly without saying much.
On the left was Wei Lie, and on the right was a woman, dressed plainly and not particularly attractive—a rare sight among the fairies of the Tianyin Sect.
However, she possessed a mid-stage Golden Core cultivation.
“Junior Brother Wei is exaggerating. This matter is not a big deal, and it’s possible that the woman simply wanted to hide the talisman.”
“Moreover, this is the fault of the Lawless Tower for missing sothing.”
“If you’re really upset, send Junior Brother Jiang over to ; I think he’s quite good.”
“I happen to need soone on my side,” the woman said with a smile.
In his anger, Wei Lie agreed.
Jiang Hao sighed; if he had to change places, so be it.
At least he wouldn’t be recognized by those disciples who had plans.
He could also avoid so trouble.
Finally, the Senior Sister took him away from the managent building, and as soon as they stepped out, she introduced herself.
“Junior Brother Jiang, let’s get acquainted. My na is Yan Hua.”
Yan Hua?
Hearing the na, Jiang Hao was startled.
