Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1043: Using the Dragon Egg to Exchange for the Xuanyuan Sword (2)

The Great Thousand God Sect was moving south.

The Saint Bandits had been quiet lately. It seemed that they had gained a lot of benefits.

At night, the moonlight shone on the forest.

Jiang Hao slowly opened his eyes.

It was not an excuse to say that the dragon’s egg was needed to suppress the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl. He thought it would be really useful.

He wanted to use the dragon egg to find Xuanyuan Tai.

Perhaps he could borrow the Xuanyuan Sword.

The Grand Earth Emperor needed the support of the Dragon Clan. If Xuanyuan Tai could raise a dragon, it would be great.

His future was limitless.

If he gave him the dragon egg, perhaps Xuanyuan Tai would let him borrow the Xuanyuan Sword. He could return it after he was done.

He had given Gui the secret technique. He hoped it helped her.

If she could find the time to curse the Fallen Immortal Clan, it would naturally be for the best.

It would buy him some time.

Zhang would inform the immortal sect. After that, it would all depend on the immortal sects.

Unlike before, the immortal sect might not be able to intervene quickly.

This was an object that the Human Emperor had sealed back in the day. No one knew about it except the Dragon Clan.

It was completely different from the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl.

As for the other matters, he had to put them aside for the moment.

He just needed to deal with the problem at hand.

He could not delay the exploration any longer.

He understood a little bit about what was going on inside.

If he could just go in and investigate, he might be able to find where the pearl was.

Of course, this time, he would not be taken by surprise.

Just as he thought everything was sorted, he sensed something.

Immediately after, Senior Brother Zheng arrived where he was.

“Something has happened, Junior Brother Jiang,” said Zheng Shijiu.

Jiang Hao nodded and stood up.

He followed Senior Brother Zheng.

After a while, they saw Liao Jin and the others.

When they saw Jiang Hao coming over, they stepped aside.

Jiang Hao looked ahead and saw Zuo Ming and Gudu Jinxin staring at the ground with their swords in their hands. They looked eager.

There was blood on their swords.

There was a man on the ground with his limbs torn off. His neck was bleeding.

Although he was healing, he was in extreme pain.

He struggled and tried to crawl toward his severed limbs. It seemed he wanted to reattach his limbs to his body.

However, Zuo Ming kicked him.

Zuo Ming and Gudu Jinxin’s excited voices echoed.

“What’s the matter?”

The two of them noticed Jiang Hao’s arrival, but they only glanced at him.

Jiang Hao asked, “Who did this?”

He was referring to Li Ertao’s condition.

“We did,” Zuo Ming said without hesitation.

“Why?” Jiang Hao asked calmly.

“The fruit he gave us was poisonous. We suspected that he was the demonic beast in disguise from the Dark Lake. So, we had to make sure,” said Zuo Ming.

“T-The fruit wasn’t… poisonous,” said Li Ertao from the ground.

Jiang Hao ignored him and looked at Zuo Ming. “Did you find what you expected? Is he the demonic beast then?”

“We aren’t completely sure. We’re still checking,” said Gudu Jinxin.

“Tell me, how do you confirm it?” Jiang Hao asked.

“You don’t have to worry about that,” Zuo Ming said.

Jiang Hao looked at the fruit on the ground. He then picked it up. “This fruit isn’t poisoned.”

“It is poisoned. We ate it, so we know. If you say otherwise, then maybe you are in league with him! We have reason to believe you have been affected by the demonic beast too,” said Zuo Ming. “Do you still say it’s not poisonous?”

Jiang Hao looked at the person in front of him but did not say anything.

Liao Jin and the others were watching from behind. They wondered how Jiang Hao would deal with this.

“Fellow Daoist Zuo, why are you getting so heated up?” Jiang Hao asked.

“I heard that this mission is very important to you,” said Zuo Ming. “Without us, you’re destined to fail. If I say this fruit is poisonous, then it is.”

Zuo Ming smiled. “What do you think now, Fellow Disciple Jiang?”

Jiang Hao looked at him. “What if the fruit isn’t poisonous?”

“Then, I’ll apologize to Fellow Disciple Li. I think he’ll forgive me, but you might lose your life in the Dark Lake without our protection, Disciple Jiang,” said Zuo Ming.

“Maybe you’re right.” Jiang Hao calmly stepped forward and appeared in front of Zuo Ming.

Zuo Ming was shocked. Before he could react, Jiang Hao slashed with his scabbard and hit him squarely in the face.

Zuo Ming was sent flying.

The pain made him furious.

With the Demonic Sound Slash Technique, Jiang Hao appeared by Zuo Ming’s side and grabbed his arm. Then, he twisted it hard.

There was a crack, and Zuo Ming’s arm was broken. Blood splattered everywhere.

He screamed in pain.

He attacked with his other hand.

However, Jiang Hao caught it. He broke the other arm too.

Zuo Ming’s face twisted in pain.

His cultivation which was at the peak of the Golden Core Realm could not shake Jiang Hao at all.

At that moment, the scabbard hit Zuo Ming again, and he fell to the ground.

Everyone was surprised. It happened so fast.

Gudu Jinxin turned around and fled.

Zheng Shijiu was the first to attack.

However, his cultivation realm was not high enough, so he was forced back by a single strike.

Jiang Hao looked at Liao Jin and the others.

They shuddered, then went after Gudu Jinxin.

After a while, Zuo Ming and Gudu Jinxin knelt in front of Jiang Hao.

Zheng Shijiu and the others watched from afar. They did not dare to get close.

“We are all here to complete the mission. Why must you do something like that?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Yeah… We’re all here to complete the mission. So, of course, we’ll prioritize the mission,” said Zuo Ming with difficulty.
