“This way,” Jiang Hao said as he led the way.

Yu Dehong and the others followed him.

Jiang Hao was the most perceptive, so they had to let him lead.

However, the constant change of direction made it difficult for those behind him, especially the injured Ximen Ling and Lu Wen.

Ning Shuang, at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm, also struggled to keep up.

Fortunately, Yu Dehong helped her, or she would have fallen behind.

Jiang Hao was unusually fast for someone in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm.

Many people could use the Thousand Demonic Tone to a certain extent, but no one else could use it like this.

They never thought that the technique could be this powerful.

Jiang Hao didn’t slow down. He continued to move quickly and changed directions constantly.

“Why are we taking such a roundabout way?” Ximen Ling asked.

“If we don’t, they’ll catch up,” Jiang Hao said.

“But we haven’t found anything. Are you just trying to drag this out because of your newfound fame?” Ximen Ling asked coldly.

She wasn’t the only one thinking this way.

“I also checked. There’s no need to take such a roundabout way. We can return to the sect. Are you doing this to show off? I remember you used to boast about your accomplishments. Is this your way of achieving them?” said Lu Wen.

Jiang Hao glanced at them but did not say anything.

“Got nothing to say?” Ximen Ling said. “If that’s the case, you might as well go on your own. We can find our own way back.”

“Then, we’ll split up,” Yu Dehong said.

Jiang Hao didn’t stop for even a moment and continued moving forward.

There were indeed stronger pursuers behind them, and he needed to lead his group to safety. It was a bit complicated but not impossible since the pursuers had not detected their presence yet.

Ximen Ling and Lu Wen, who were left behind, were somewhat worried, but they relaxed when they didn’t run into trouble.

“It looks like there aren’t any problems,” Ximen Ling said. “We can go back.” “We’ll leave immediately when they arrive,” Lu Wen said.

As they were about to leave on their flying swords, some figures suddenly appeared in the vicinity.

“I thought it was a trap, but it seems like it’s not,” an elderly man said. “Just in time. We can’t use these two to find others.”

The power of the peak of the Golden Core Realm and the early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm oppressed the two.

In the face of these formidable individuals, Lu Wen and Ximen Ling trembled in fear. They couldn’t even move.

“Please! We’re just…”

Someone slapped Ximen Ling and sent her flying.

“Did I ask you to speak yet?”

The two were silenced. They were overwhelmed by fear.

Meanwhile, Jiang Hao suddenly stopped.

He sighed. “Senior Brother Yu, you’ll have to fend for yourself.”

Yu Dehong was stunned. Then, he understood what Jiang Hao meant.

“Of course, Junior Brother, you’ve done your best. If you can escape, please do,”

he said with a smile.

Jiang Hao lowered his head. He hadn’t expected that leaving the two behind would compromise their location.

Now, the range of his abilities was not sufficient to take everyone with him.

It wasn’t long before many people appeared in the vicinity. There were two people at the late stage and peak of the Golden Core Realm, and two others at the early and middle stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

Facing these powerful individuals, Yu Dehong had no intention of fighting. He was utterly powerless.

Jiang Hao lowered his head and breathed a sigh of relief.

It appeared they were weaker than he had antic.i.p.ated, which made the situation much more manageable.

However, it seemed that these people did not recognize him, so his journey outside was not as dangerous as he had initially thought. At least, they were not constantly watching him closely.

“These two have told us everything. You have to help us enter the Heavenly Note Sect,” said the elderly man as he pushed Lu Wen and Ximen Ling forward.

They were covered in injuries, and they looked helpless.

“The sect is not easy to enter. Senior, I hope you understand,” Yu Dehong said respectfully.

“It’s fine. You can enter with your ident.i.ty tokens. They explained it very clearly to us.” The man pointed to Lu Wen and Ximen Ling.

Yu Dehong sighed. Jiang Hao continued to sense his surroundings and found everything to be fine. He intended to do something about this situation.

However, when he was about to act, his eyes narrowed.

He immediately retracted all his powers and became alert.

An aura much stronger and terrifying than his own was approaching.

In just a few breaths, he felt a gaze on him. The gaze fell on him like the scorching rays of the sun. When he looked up, he was stunned.

Behind the Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators was a man who had appeared without anyone noticing.

He was middle-aged and wore a white and blue robe. He had deep eyes. He seemed somewhat melancholic.

He was the Master of the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.

This was a person Jiang Hao had wanted to avoid at all costs.

“What are you looking at?” the elderly man asked Jiang Hao

The others looked back as well and were horrified.

The people who turned back instantly exploded into pieces. There was no exception.

When only half the number of people remained, they trembled in fear, and no one dared to look back.

“When did this place become a gathering place for the Blood Shadow Sect?” said a deep voice. Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Everyone who had surrounded Jiang Hao’s group exploded into pieces, including Lu Wen and Ximen Ling. Each explosion sent a shockwave through Jiang Hao’s heart, but he remained calm.

Once the people around him were all dead, Jiang Hao said respectfully,

“Greetings, Senior.”

Yu Dehong and Ning Shuang also regained their senses and bowed. They had seen this person before.

The Master of the Heavenly Joy Pavilion approached Jiang Hao slowly.

Jiang Hao had already considered his options. Once this person made a move, he would attempt to escape.

With the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl in his possession, he should be able to prevent Nine Nether from attacking him.

As for what kind of changes the Nine Nether would bring, that was no longer something he needed to consider.

However, in the span of a breath, Jiang Hao saw the person appear in front of him.

“Are you afraid of me?” asked the deep, terrifying voice.

“Senior, you must be joking,” Jiang Hao said.

“Why do you think I showed up here?” asked the Master of the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.

Jiang Hao kept a cautious eye on the person in front of him. “Senior, I a.s.sume you are here to support the sect.”

“Do you think I’ll kill you?” asked the Master of the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.

Jiang Hao’s heart skipped a beat, but he dared not show too much emotion. He shook his head. “Of course not, Senior.”

“No need to bow to me,” said the Master of the Heavenly Joy Pavilion as he looked at Jiang Hao.

At that moment, an invisible force began to lift Jiang Hao’s hand. Jiang Hao did not accept this gesture of respect.

“As a senior of the sect, it’s only appropriate for me to pay my respects,” Jiang Hao said.

“You should be more confident in yourself, ” said the Pavilion Master calmly. “You are highly regarded by many, and your death would greatly affect me.” With that, the Pavilion Master walked toward the battlefield of the sect..
