Chapter 602 - 602: This Is Making Things Difficult For Me

Jiang Hao had faith in Mi Lingyue’s Imowledge, so he felt that he could secure Xing’s reward.

Even if he couldn’t secure it, he would have to offer a reward to Liu. Even if he succeeded with Xing, he would have to wait till another gathering to get Chi Tian’s location. That would be too late.

The information about Tian Chen was just an additional task. Otherwise, just asking for Chi Tian’s location would be too simple.

Of course, he wouldn’t let Liu ask for a reward upfront later on. It was somewhat dangerous for him.

Before they brought it up, he would give the information about the True Dragon to them.

This way, he could obtain the information and get a corresponding reward from Dan Yuan.

“Are you certain, Friend Jing?” Liu asked. “If it’s only these things, I can give the information to you now.”

Jiang Hao nodded and remained silent.

Soon, he received a message on the slate regarding Chi Tian’s location and the information about Tian Chen.

It contained his recent location, a brief background, and information about the weaknesses in his technique. It mentioned his child too.

However, that wasn’t certain. It only provided some suggestions of the places where Tian Chen’s son might be.

‘It seems that Feng Hua understands his collaborators better than others.’

It also showed that Liu was not simple at all.

Without any prior preparation, he knew so much.

Ordinary individuals wouldn’t have such capabilities.

As for Chi Tian’s location, it seemed to be on a large island.

However, the information provided by Liu had a point worth noting. It was labeled “Seven-Day Village,” and the explanation given was that this village was somewhat unusual and highly regarded.

But there wasn’t anything more than that.

‘Coincidentally, that’s my destination.’

Jiang Hao didn’t say much and watched to see if they had any other tasks.

“I’ve been looking for a person named Yin Zichen lately. If you have any information, please inform me. He should be from the Heavenly Spirit Tribe,” Gui said.

“Yin Zichen from the Heavenly Spirit Tribe? I think I heard about him many years ago. It’s said that he killed quite a few members of the tribe and was eventually exiled. He hasn’t been active overseas in these years,” Liu said. Jiang Hao thought for a moment and confirmed that he hadn’t heard this name before.

He had heard of Yin Wei, though.

He was probably after him, so Jiang Hao needed to be cautious.

“I have a problem with another formation too,” said Xing. “The formation is called Burning Immortal. When you enter the formation, you will be considered as one of the “Immortals” at the center of the formation. The formation is hard to understand and even harder to break. So, any related information about the formation and ways to break it would be appreciated.”

Jiang Hao lowered his head. From the name alone, he could guess that this formation was extraordinary.

However, it wasn’t practical to ask Mi Lingyue since she wasn’t coming out onto the deck anymore.

He could ask Hong Yuye, but he didn’t know if she would be interested.

After that, there were no more transactions.

Gui and the others began discussing recent events around them.

“I have a feeling that a powerful figure has appeared in the south. People kept mentioning a person with an extraordinarily calm aura, whom they hadn’t seen the true appearance of. I wonder who it is Gui said and looked at Jiang Hao.

‘Don’t look at me. It’s not me…

If his guess was correct, it should be Shang An.

“Has the Grand Earth Sovereign appeared?” asked Xing.

Gui thought for a moment. “It’s hard to say. It seems like they have, but the details aren’t clear. It’s probably just a matter of time. It is said that at the final moment, a strong figure suddenly appeared and assisted the Xuanyuan Clan with the momentum of the Mountain and Sea Sword Force. Based on that, I guess it’s a senior from the Mountain Sea Sword Sect. The details of the situation are unclear.”

Jiang Hao initially wanted to tell them but restrained himself. After all, Kendo might not be his real name. If he said something without basis, it might affect his impression in this gathering.

He did know that Kendo had viewed the Heaven Lock Technique, but it wasn’t appropriate to tell them directly. So, he chose to remain silent.

“The secret location of the Bright Moon Sect seems to involve the Human Emperor and the Fallen Immortal Clan. Many people have found things related to the Human Emperor. They speculate that there might be the Human Emperor’s Sword there,” said Xing.

‘The Human Emperor’s Sword?’ Jiang Hao thought of the Xuanyuan Sword.

If it was true, then the Bright Moon Sect was indeed remarkable. First, there was the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, and then there was the Grand Earth Sovereign.

“Recently, the Clear Sky School has been taking some actions. It seems that many people want to know about Shang An, who possesses a Sage’s Heart. They have formed groups to start looking for him,” said Xing.

Jiang Hao found it strange. Those people truly had no jobs of their own.

He thought of Liu Xingchen, who was always busy with something.

Xing and Gui had something to say, but Liu didn’t say anything more.

Jiang Hao felt a bit regretful. He was overseas now, and if there were observations or information, it would be beneficial for him.

Now, he could only listen and observe as much as possible on his own.

After a while, the gathering ended with a reminder from Senior Dan Yuan.

As he left the gathering, Jiang Hao took out a book and wrote down the information he had gained on Chi Tian and Tian Chen.

Chi Tian wasn’t on the ship’s usual route. He could only wait and find out more about him. Then, he began to jot down other things from the gathering:

Senior Dan Yuan started paying attention to the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl and also showed interest in the news of the True Dragon.

There has been no progress regarding the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart. It seems that entering the Abyssal Sea is necessary to find the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart.

Completed Xing’s task and exchanged it for Chi Tian’s location and information about Tian Chen.

Xing mentioned a new formation named, “Burning Immortal,” while Gui was searching for Yin Zichen. There might be a connection between the secret location of the Bright Moon Sect and the Human Emperor. The Xuanyuan Sword might be located there.

Jiang Hao didn’t record anything else and didn’t pay much attention to other news. After completing, Jiang Hao began to review the information about Tian

Chen.

The data showed that he frequently went to Chaos Stone Island and had collaborations with the Great Thousand God Sect. His strength should be in the early to late stage of the Return to Void Realm. There might be an Immortal Ascension Platform expert on Chaos Stone Island.

Jiang Hao couldn’t help but sigh. If he were an Immortal Ascension Platform expert, he would be much more relaxed.

In places with fewer people, the Return to Void Realm was undoubtedly powerful. However, in places where sects gathered, the Immortal Ascension Platform was where true strength lay.

Even in a top-tier sect, there were probably only a dozen or so experts in that realm. Reaching the Immortal Ascension Platform was a feat only a few achieved.

After closing the book, Jiang Hao began to meditate and rest.

Early the next morning, he knocked on Hong Yuye’s door, but there was no response.

When he entered the room, he saw that she was still asleep. Her cheek rested on her hand, just like when she had first fallen asleep. She hadn’t woken up in so many days.

Jiang Hao felt helpless. He left her room.

He walked to the deck, where some people without cabins had to huddle in a corner and wait to reach their destination.

Normally, Jiang Hao wouldn’t pay attention to these people, but now, with two seemingly ordinary non-cultivators, his attention was drawn to them. It was the same for the others.

Jiang Hao found the two people and observed them without saying anything.

He wanted to try and make sense of the situation.

One was a man, and the other was a woman. They looked to be in their twenties.

Jiang Hao had observed them for a week, but he still hadn’t seen the woman clearly.

It seemed that she was very concerned about being seen.

As for the man, he was only passable in terms of looks.

By this time, the ship had already received all the passengers and began sailing on its official route to Chaos Stone Island.

It would pass by two more islands where passengers would disembark for half a day. The whole journey would take seven days.

“Isn’t it really strange to have two ordinary people? What kind of ordinary people can board this ship?”

Suddenly, a young man walked over to them.

Jiang Hao frowned.. Was he trying to be a hurdle in his observation?
