From the start to the end, there were no guards. No one came to suppress the imposters.
This was now normal.
The only explanation was that Hong Yuye might have intervened.
This is the only way they could proceed smoothly.
It could also be true that the guards were too incompetent.
On the way, Jiang Hao thanked Hong Yuye anyway.
It was always good to be respectful to Hong Yuye.
She just glanced at him without saying a word.
Sometimes, he could easily perceive the meaning in her eyes, and even deduce her thoughts from her actions.
However, Hong Yuye’s emotions were too few, and her actions were limited.
“Senior, why did that person call you Smiling San Sheng just now?” Jing Fengyun asked.
“Because before meeting you, I met him first,” Jiang Hao said.
Although Jing Fengyun was puzzled, he didn’t ask further.
“Is this token enough?” Jiang Hao tossed the token to Jing Fengyun.
He also retrieved several storage treasures.
After settling down, he checked how many spirit stones were inside.
He also wanted to see if there was September Spring here.
In theory, there should be some.
It’s unlikely to have a lot, but there might be a rare chance that he could get some.
Since the Chaos Stone Island gathered various forces, it wouldn’t look good if they didn’t have good tea for sale.
“With this token, many things can be done.” Jing Fengyun was astonished.
Originally, he only went to get a normal identity token, but he unexpectedly got the Island Master’s token.
“Senior, do you have something to do? If you use this token for trading, it will be much more convenient,” Jing Fengyun said.
“I want to go to the Seven-Day Village,” Jiang Hao said.
“Alright. I will inquire about it. We should do it as soon as possible,” Jing Fengyun said. “The matter just now will be known soon. The longer it takes, the more unfavorable it will be for you, Senior.”
“We find a place to stay first, and then we can handle it,” Jiang Hao said.
It so happened that he had some matters to take care of.
A short while later, they settled in an inn and spent some spirit stones.
Although it was a bit pricey, they could afford it.
After that, Jiang Hao and Jing Fengyun left the inn.
Jing Fengyun wasn’t surprised. After all, he had the token, and it would be strange if they asked him to go alone.
However, Jiang Hao was accompanying him to find out whether Jing Fengyun could fulfill what he promised.
He appraised him.
[Jing Fengyun: A disciple of the Rasheng Sect under Heavenly King Hai Luo of the Milky Way Sea Realm. He is at the early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm. Due to practicing the wrong cultivation technique, his lifeblood is blocked. It gathers and doesn’t dissipate. That causes his cultivation to be stagnant. He wholeheartedly helps you so that you might help him with his cultivation problem. Now, he has placed his hopes on you.]
A disciple of Heavenly King Hai Luo?
Jiang Hao was surprised. He didn’t expect to encounter a disciple of Heavenly King Hai Luo during this trip.
Indeed, Heavenly King Hai Luo was formidable in the overseas regions and had various subordinates.
However, he had given up his position as the Heavenly King to become a prisoner at the Lawless Tower.
“What cultivation technique are you practicing?” Jiang Hao asked.
Jing Fengyun was momentarily stunned. He then immediately said, “The Nine
Transformations of Wind and Clouds Technique. It’s currently in the Primordial Spirit Realm. The technique needs to be exchanged in our sect later. ”
“Let me take a look.” Jiang Hao extended his hand.
Smiling San Sheng wasn’t known for his tact.
Jing Fengyun hesitated for a moment and handed over the cultivation technique.
Jiang Hao took a look at it. With his experience, he should be able to identify some issues. After all, practicing the Hong Meng Heart Sutra and the nameless manual made him sensitive to the intricacies of cultivation techniques.
As expected, there weren’t many issues from Lifeblood Refinement to Foundation Establishment Realm, but there were some problems with the Primordial Spirit Realm in this cultivation technique.
He wasn’t certain how to modify it, though.
He could only take the cultivation technique and ask Hong Yuye later.
This left Jing Fengyun puzzled. Was Jiang Hao using the cultivation technique as collateral?
But in the eyes of such a powerful person, his cultivation technique should be quite ordinary.
Unfortunately, before he could ask, Jiang Hao disappeared from the spot. So, for now, he could only get to work.
A little while later, they found a large shop and inquired about the September Spring Tea.
“Esteemed guest, we don’t have much September Spring Tea here, and the ones we do have already been booked by other guests. It’s difficult for us to sell it at this point,” a woman said hesitantly.
Jiang Hao’s fan transformed into a long knife. He placed it against her neck. “Is it difficult now?” he asked politely.
When the knife appeared, the sword’s intent surged.
The woman knew that if she said something offensive, she would end up dead.
She smiled. “Esteemed guest, you must be joking. Whether it’s difficult or not depends on whether we do our best. It’s our duty to serve the guests. I don’t think it’s difficult.”
In the end, Jiang Hao bought some September Spring Tea for nineteen thousand spirit stones.
He still had another nineteen thousand spirit stones left.
After that, he took out the Blood-Burning Pill and other magical treasures.
The other party purchased them for sixty thousand spirit stones.
In this way, most of the items were sold.
Although the price was higher than expected, there were two decent magical treasures among them.
He didn’t know if he had been swindled.
Fortunately, he could accept sixty thousand.
He now had a total of 79,000 spirit stones.
It was then that he remembered he still had some storage treasures.
He began to open them right there.
The spirit stones in these storage treasures weren’t much. It totaled up to only 22,000 spirit stones.
There were also some ordinary magical treasures and pills.
Jiang Hao handed them all to the woman in front of him.
This bewildered her. It was the first time she had seen someone act so recklessly, and these storage treasures seemed to belong to the Island Master.
What had this person done?
At the same time, she knew that if she displeased him in any way, she would end up dead.
Helplessly, she looked through the storage treasures.
In the end, she offered thirty thousand for them.
Jiang Hao was not disappointed. He left happily with the money.
Seventy-nine thousand plus twenty-two thousand plus thirty thousand.
Now he had 1,31,000 spirit stones.
He was rich!
He was truly rich. He had never seen so many spirit stones before.
‘Now, I can afford a good blade for myself.’
After leaving the place, Jiang Hao took a deep breath.
How many years would it take to accumulate this many spirit stones if he only sold talismans?
Shaking his head, Jiang Hao returned to the inn.
As agreed, he brewed September Spring for Hong Yuye.
At the same time, outside the Island Master’s residence, a man in armor stood before a pile of corpses.
“Smiling San Sheng? He’s only at the early stage of the Return to Void Realm, and yet, he dares to be so arrogant?” The chief guard looked at old man Li beside him.
“Chief guard, you underestimate this cultivator.” Li felt uneasy. “He killed Bai
Ying and several other cultivators at the middle stage of the Return to Void
Realm with a single stroke.”
“I didn’t notice when he made his move. He probably blocked my perception,” said the chief guard with a frown.
That person had the ability to deceive him. That wasn’t good.
“It seems we’ll have to wait for Senior Tian Chen to come back. Is the Island Master still in seclusion?” Li asked.
“No need to wait. I will personally go and meet him. I’ll see if he still has the strength to kill me with a single stroke,” said the chief guard coldly..
