Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1140: Once a King, Forever a King

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the Hidden Cloud Prefecture, a stone tablet carved with stars and myriad things was constantly glowing. The woman in front of the stone tablet frowned.

“It seems like quite a number of people have been captured by the Heavenly Note Sect. Why is that?”

They did not have much enmity with the Heavenly Note Sect, but almost all the people who came were captured by the Heavenly Note Sect.

Was it because of the Heavenly Saint Sect?

There was indeed a conflict between the Heavenly Saint Sect and the Heavenly Note Sect.

However, it should have been settled.

The Heavenly Note Sect had gone all out in their pursuit and even captured all the people outside.

How did it come to this?

“Is it because of you?” Hu Yuexin looked at the middle-aged man beside her. “You’re one of Feng Hua’s, aren’t you? You seem to have made quite an enemy with the Heavenly Note Sect.”

Feng Hua had been in charge of the mission to the South. There had been quite a few incidents related to the heavenly Note Sect.

She was not responsible for that and did not know the details.

She did not want to find out.

It was good to just stick to her own mission.

Unfortunately, the other party’s mission seemed to have affected her inadvertently.

“I’m definitely part of the reason but not entirely.” Feng Hua sighed.

“The Heavenly Note Sect has always cooperated with the Heavenly Saint Sect. Before, when the Holy Master’s divine soul appeared in the Heavenly Note Sect, our people went in. Zhuang Dongyun was detained by the other party as soon as she arrived with her team.”

Hu Yuexin nodded. “You have beef with them. This isn’t like you. Why?”

“I underestimated Smiling San Sheng. As for the Heavenly Note Sect, I don’t really understand either. They seem to be investigating something. They just happened to find me, so they chased me relentlessly.” Feng Hua felt rather helpless.

“Smiling San Sheng…” Hu Yuexin frowned.

Until now, she did not understand how she had been exposed.

In the end, the other party used some method to erase a wisp of her spirit.

There was only one mark left on the last person, she did not dare use it rashly.

“I heard that you have something to do here? With so many people staying behind, won’t they find you?” Feng Hua was dressed in a Daoist robe.

“If you fail, it will affect you greatly.”

“Not so much. My people have mental barriers,” said Hu Yuexin seriously. “As long as they hold out, there’ll be no problems. No physical or mental torture can get through that barrier. The more people there are, the stronger the barrier will be.”

“Smiling San Sheng knows about your existence. What if he finds you?” Daoist Feng Hua asked.

“He isn’t stupid. Killing a wisp of my avatar is easy but killing me is suicide.” Hu Yuexin looked at Feng Hua. “But you should be more careful. Compared to me, it’s easier for Smiling San Sheng to find you.”

“He can’t find me.” Feng Hua smiled.

“On the contrary, I will find more people related to him and make him surrender to me.”

“Is that so?” Hu Yuexin said calmly. “I also plan to control him, but I don’t know who will succeed first.”

…

On the fifth floor of the Lawless Tower, when Jiang Hao arrived, he realized that Hai Luo had already left.

There was Zhuang Yuzhen in the first cell. The second cell was empty. The third cell held Mi Lingyue. The lantern bearer was in the fourth cell. The fifth cell had Yan Shang, and the sixth cell held Old Man Corpse Sea.

The people from the Great Thousand God Sect were not here.

Jiang Hao went straight to Zhuang Yuzhen and served him some good wine and meat.

Zhuang Yuzhen was a little dazed. He felt like he was eating his last meal.

“I heard that the Divine Corpse Sect is in chaos,” Jiang Hao said calmly.

The Heavenly Note Sect did not know about that yet, but he related it to Mu Longyu.

“Why?” Zhuang Yuzhen was surprised.

“The corpses inside have mutated, so the Divine Corpse Sect is in chaos. Many things have happened in the North.”

“Do the disciples of the Divine Corpse Sect who came to the Heavenly Note Sect know about it?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked.

“Maybe they know by now,” said Jiang Hao.

There were people from the North.

The Divine Corpse Sect would know more about it.

“I didn’t expect such a thing to happen in the Divine Corpse Sect.” Zhuang Yuzhen sighed.

“Senior, do you want a way to suppress it?” Jiang Hao asked.

“You have one?” Zhuang Yuzhen was not surprised.

“No.” Jiang Hao shook his head. “But I can find out.”

But he could ask Old Man Corpse Sea about it.

Perhaps there was a way.

“Really? What do you want for it?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked Jiang Hao.

“If someone wants to take something from the Divine Corpse Sect, can your disciple, Qu Zhong, do it?” Jiang Hao asked.

Zhuang Yuzhen was silent for a long time.

The real question was whether someone could take away the thing and keep it secret.

Everything else was fine.

However, he knew that the Divine Corpse Sect had something that caught this person’s attention.

But using his disciple for something like that meant it was not something big. Or maybe the Divine Corpse Sect does not see the thing as that important.

“Sure. But I have to teach you the third secret technique of the Nine Extreme Corpse Dissolution Techniques to handle it,” Zhuang Yuzhen said after a moment of deliberation.

‘Oh?’ Jiang Hao was a little surprised. He wanted it, but he did not even have to ask.

After that, Zhuang Yuzhen taught him the third secret technique of the Nine Extreme Corpse Dissolution Techniques.

The third secret technique was the Corpse Transformation Technique.

It was to leave a secret mark on a living person.

Over time, the other party would become a god’s corpse as if they were poisoned.

In other words, they would become clones.

It was cruel.

It was truly inconceivable that the Divine Corpse Sect could be called an immortal sect with such a secret technique.

The Nine Extreme Corpse Dissolution Techniques and the Greater Mind Avatar were both somewhat extraordinary techniques.

Then, Jiang Hao stood up and looked at Old Man Corpse Sea.

The latter was stunned for a moment and felt a little nervous.

Mi Lingyue stared at the old man. He had finally fallen.

“Just one look, and he is that scared.” She sighed with emotion.

Everyone here had experienced it.

“I wouldn’t go that far,” said the lantern bearer.

Yan Shang stared at Jiang Hao in thought.

Her eyes lit up.

Jiang Hao also noticed something strange when he passed by.

It was likely that Feng Hua had done something outside. Yan Shang might not communicate with Feng Hua, but maybe Feng Hua could communicate with Yan Shang.

However, since the other party had not angered him, he did not have to worry too much.

“What do you want to know?” Old Man Corpse Sea asked.

“There are evil corpses in the Divine Corpse Sect,” Jiang Hao said softly. “They can’t suppress them in the North. Is there any other way?”

“The evil corpses are related to the Ancient Sword Cliff. Maybe there’s a way inside. Of course, those evil corpses are related to the Corpse Clan. There are some methods that the Divine Corpse Sect can’t use,” Old Man Corpse Sea said softly.

Jiang Hao nodded and did not ask further.

He turned around and left.

At that moment, there was some movement outside.

After a while, some people were taken to the fifth floor by Senior Sister Yinsha.

There were quite a number of them.

When she saw Jiang Hao, the woman in the lead sneered. “Golden Core Realm? Can Golden Core Realm cultivators come here? Really?”

Jiang Hao bowed to them before leaving.

“Haha… you’re afraid of strangers,” someone mocked.

Jiang Hao turned a deaf ear to them.

The people of the Great Thousand God Sect were in high spirits these days.

Zhuang Yuzhen and the others were excited when they heard the voice.

Finally, someone came to replace the spot left by King Hai Luo.

Even though Hai Luo was not around anymore, he was still a king for life.
