“What happened?” Jiang Hao asked.
He would do his best as promised, but he needed to know what was actually going on first.
“Do you know about the recent attack by the Sunset Immortal Sect?” Yinsha asked.
“I do.” Jiang Hao nodded.
He was sent out by the sect during that time, so he knew about it.
It had been dangerous, but the Pavilion Master had arrived in the nick of time and helped them out. The sect had managed to push the enemies back.
But what was the connection between that and why they needed him here?
“We caught a person. Usually, we wouldn’t need to pay much attention to someone like him, but we found something… This person is very stubborn, so we weren’t able to get him to talk,” said Yinsha.
“Are you running out of time?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Yes. The person might escape at any time, so we need information from him as soon as possible,” Yinsha said.
Jiang Hao nodded.
He didn’t say anything much. Everything would become clear when he met the person.
It was almost time, and the Daily Appraisal ability would be available soon.
He could then get the general information about the prisoner.
On the fifth floor, Yinsha didn’t follow Jiang Hao in.
Jiang Hao walked alone and headed toward the cell.
Seeing this place made him a bit emotional. In the past, there was only Zhuang Yuzhen here. He used to be so unruly.
More than ten years have passed since then. Now, there were more people
mere.
The others who used to be unruly were now better.
Zhuang Yuzhen’s temperament had also changed greatly.
Jiang Hao felt as if he had traveled back in time.
Sometimes time passed unknowingly, but when he thought back, everything felt like it had happened just yesterday.
This time, everything was silent. Even Heavenly King Hai Luo was unusually quiet.
It was really strange.
After a while, Jiang Hao saw the people locked up in the cells.
There were the usual Zhuang Yuzhen, Heavenly King Hai Luo, Nangong Yue, Wu Yang, and Yin Zichen. There was another newcomer, Zhang Yang.
“Friend, nice to meet you again. Have you considered my offer?” Wu Yang asked with a smile.
“Bow down to me as your master, and I can teach you anything you want to learn,” Yin Zichen said.
“Evil demon!” Zhang Yang sneered.
Zhuang Yuzhen and Heavenly King Hai Luo didn’t speak.
Nangong Yue was very curious about what Heavenly King Hai Luo would do this time.
Before, Jiang Hao always visited willingly, but this time, they knew he was here for Zhang Yang.
Zhuang Yuzhen and Heavenly King Hai Luo were waiting for Jiang Hao to make a move.
Jiang Hao just bowed to them and then walked to the front of Zhang Yang’s cell.
“What are you looking for?” Zhang Yang asked.
Jiang Hao looked at him and felt that this person was full of righteousness. There was no hypocrisy in his words.
This was a good person. He was at least better than most people.
“Senior, in the sect, you probably aren’t very likable, are you?”
People who were too good weren’t very popular.
He didn’t want to be such a good person, because it was not easy to survive.
He had some principles, but that was all.
“I’m an old man who has lived with honesty and integrity. What do you mean by ‘likable’? You think flowery words of a demonic sect can deceive me?” said Zhang Yang in an icy voice.
Jiang Hao felt that this senior was very stubborn. He sensed that his divine ability was back.
He appraised the old man.
[Zhang Yang: Elder of the Sunset Immortal Sect. His cultivation has been absorbed and disintegrated by the Lawless Tower. He is left at only the middle stage of the Primordial Spirit realm. He is straightforward and uncompromising, with a deep hatred of evil. He regards eliminating demons and evil spirits as his mission, and wherever there is evil, he will not hesitate to sacrifice himself to save people. He has conducted himself with integrity and righteousness throughout his life. Only when he was young did he like to read secret books in the room. This is something he is reluctant to mention for the rest of his life. Now that those books have been sealed and locked in a room, he is unwilling to let anyone know about them or himself. He attacked the Heavenly Note Sect because he received a secret letter from Feng Hua.]
The information surprised Jiang Hao.
He was a righteous and honest person but had a small secret.
The person who had made him attack the Heavenly Note Sect was Feng Hua!
‘What is her purpose? Did she send him here to test the limits of the Heavenly Note Sect? It’s not the first time, either. Dan Qingzi was here last time for the same thing too. Does the Lawless Tower want me to investigate Feng Hua?’
Jiang Hao did not think about it anymore.
He didn’t know anything for sure right now.
Moreover, with the Heavenly Note Sect investigating the matter, Feng Hua wouldn’t dare to be so bold.
“What are you looking at?” Zhang Yang asked.
Jiang Hao looked at him. “Senior, you seem to be very easy to talk to.”
“Do you think you can trick me into saying something useful by pretending to be nice? I have acted with honesty in my life, and I will never do anything that goes against my heart,” Zhang Yang said.
“I heard that the person you’re protecting is a notorious villain, a ruthless murderer, and a heartless manipulator,” Jiang Hao said seriously.
“Do you think I’ll believe what you say? Do you think I’m a three-year-old?” Zhang Yang said righteously.
The others also looked at Jiang Hao. They felt that this old man wasn’t anything special, after all.
Jiang Hao didn’t mind them and looked at Zhang Yang. He raised his hand and beckoned gently.
“Although you may not trust me now, Senior, you might be willing to believe me after I say a few words.”
As soon as they saw the beckoning, King Hai Luo and Zhuang Yuzhen sat up straight.
It was finally happening.
Nangong Yue also paid attention. Jiang Hao had made the gesture.
Whenever he beckoned to the prisoners like that, they submitted to him.
Wu Yang and Yin Zichen were puzzled, but they realized that something had changed.
King Hai Luo and Zhuang Yuzhen watched with an unwavering gaze in fear that they might miss it.
Yin Zichen and Wu Yang, who didn’t know what was happening, looked at each other and felt that the crucial moment had arrived.
Zhang Yang snorted but didn’t move.
Jiang Hao didn’t care. He just smiled. Then, a voice reached Zhang Yang’s ears. Only he could hear them.N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.Bjn.
Jiang Hao said only four words.
The disdain on the old man’s face disappeared. It was replaced with shock and horror.
“Senior, do you believe me now?” asked Jiang Hao.
“It’s impossible!” Zhang Yang glared at Jiang Hao. “It’s impossible! Absolutely impossible!”
Jiang Hao took a step back. “It seems that you are still unwilling to trust me. In that case, I’ll take my leave.”
With that, Jiang Hao turned and left.
Yin Zichen shook his head and sighed. He had thought he was going to see something extraordinary, but it turned out to be nothing.
However, shortly after, Zhang Yang slapped the cell door and shouted, “No! I haven’t finished speaking yet. Come back! Come back!”
But Jiang Hao showed no intention of turning back. He walked out of there.
“I believe you. I said I believe you!” Zhang Yang shouted hysterically as he watched Jiang Hao leave. “Stop him! Quick! Someone, stop him!”
Seeing the sudden turn of events, Wu Yang and Yin Zichen looked at each other in surprise.
They were very curious about what Jiang Hao had said to make the old man lose his composure.
“Now, he’s your master too,” said Nangong Yue as she looked at Zhang Yang..
