Chapter 674 - 675: The Birthplace Of The Heavenly Fate

There was only one day left before the Devil’s Den mission.
Jiang Hao sat cross-legged in his room and thought about it.
He wondered if he should accept the mission this time.
In theory, he didn’t need to explicitly accept the mission, but if he entered the place without informing anyone, it might turn out to be dangerous.
However, he indeed hadn’t left the sect, and he didn’t know how the Law Enforcement Hall would react if they discovered his absence.
Jiang Hao wanted to ask, but he didn’t know who to ask because Lui Xingchen had long since disappeared.
Sometimes, an undercover agent was indeed important. He had relied on several undercover agents and spies in dangerous situations.
Senior Sister Ming Yi and Liu Xingchen had frequently given him useful information.
They had helped him numerous times.
Now that there were fewer undercover agents in the sect, it was almost inconvenient.
After much hesitation, Jiang Hao decided to enter Devil’s Den secretly.
He didn’t accept the mission. It was unlikely that this trip would take too long. If he sensed that it was taking too long, he could come out and accept another mission.
The round trip wouldn’t take much time.
On the day of the mission, he continued to manage the Spirit Herb Garden as usual, and he also listened to Cheng Chou’s report on recent events.
There were some situations in the Outer Sect’s Spirit Herb Garden but nothing that required his immediate attention.
So, he didn’t need to worry too much.
At noon, Jiang Hao left the Spirit Herb Garden.
At the Lawless Tower, Nangong Yue questioned Hai Luo.
“I’ve revealed the secret. Why haven’t I received what I wanted yet?” Nangong Yue asked.
Heavenly King Hai Luo gave her a sidelong glance. “Wait a bit longer, and you’ll appreciate my guidance.”
Nangong Yue chuckled. “You’re just trying to stall for time, aren’t you?”
Heavenly King Hai Luo remained indifferent. “Who do you think you are? A cultivator at the early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm! Bah! You think I need to stall for time to deal with someone like you? I could defeat you with one hand. Even if you joined forces with Old Tattered Hair here, I would defeat you with my pinky.”
“You little scum…” Zhuang Yuzhen said lazily.
He didn’t wait for Heavenly King Hai Luo to respond. “Is the Blood Pool you talked about the same one as the one I’m thinking about?” “You know about it?” Nangong Yue was surprised.
“Is it really that Blood Pool?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked in disbelief.
“I’m not certain, but there’s a good chance it’s the same Blood Pool. Otherwise, why would it be so difficult to find?” Nangong Yue said.
“Do you know about it, Heavenly King Hai Luo?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked.
Hai Luo chuckled but didn’t answer him.
Nangong Yue said, “If it’s indeed that Blood Pool, it will have a significant impact here, especially on the Blood Wish Path. Once the fusion is successful, no one knows what will happen.”
While they were talking, Yinsha arrived with several black-robed people. All of them were members of the Lawless Tower. They were escorting two pale-faced men.
Heavenly King Hai Luo looked at the newcomers in surprise. “Isn’t that the teaching master from the Heavenly Tower? What is he doing here?”
At that point, an elderly man looked toward the second prison cell in astonishment. “Heavenly King Hai Luo?!”
“Yes. It is I.” Heavenly King Hai Luo nodded.
“Is this really the Heavenly Note Sect?”
“It seems you don’t even know who captured you.” Nangong Yue chuckled.
“It’s complicated.” The old man sighed. “They ambushed us, and later, they tortured and interrogated us about some overseas matters. They didn’t leave us with a choice. I thought I would die if I had no value.”
“Is that so?” Zhuang Yuzhen asked. “We’ve been here for over a decade, and it’s been quite decent.”
As long as that person didn’t beckon them closer, everything would be fine.
At that moment, Nangong Yue stared at the man on the other side very carefully. “Heavenly Spirit Tribe?”
“Who are you?” the man asked.
“Stop catching up. Walk ahead. You’ll have plenty of time to catch up later,” said Yinsha.
“You can try anything you like, but I’m not going to tell you anything,” said the man in disdain.
The man beside him sneered. “I’ve lost my cultivation realm already. What do I have to fear?”
Yinsha and the others didn’t say much but looked at them rather strangely.
Heavenly King Hai Luo looked at them as though he was reminiscing about his past. This left the two men puzzled.
Once Yinsha and the others left, the old man asked, “Why were the three of you looking at us like that?”
“The fifth floor is different from the others,” Zhuang Yuzhen said.
“Indeed, it’s different. Here, you have Heavenly King Hai Luo,” Nangong Yue said.
She hadn’t gained anything and was half-dead anyway. To this day, she hadn’t ever seen Hai Luo’s power that he claimed was so great.
“Heavenly King Hai Luo?!” The old man was astonished.
“Hehe… Who is more qualified than me here?” Heavenly King Hai Luo sneered.
The old man nodded.
But he was still puzzled. “Is the fifth floor really that exceptional?”
They noticed that the captives here were well taken care of. Compared to the ones on the lower floors, they looked like they lived a decent life.
Zhuang Yuzhen didn’t say much and turned to Nangong Yue. “If someone were to control that Blood Pool, would it have that much of an impact?”
“I don’t know. We have people responsible for the Blood Wish Path. They have more information. I’m not responsible for that, ” Nangong Yue said.
“Which Blood Pool are you talking about?” the man from the Heavenly Tower asked.
“What do you think?” Nangong Yue asked.
“Could it be that ‘Blood Pool’?” The man from the Heavenly Tower looked shocked.
“You know about it?” Nangong Yue was even more surprised.
“How would you know that Blood Pool? Overseas people have been searching for it for a long time with no results, ” said the man from the Heavenly Tower.
“Which Blood Pool are you talking about?” asked the young man. Then, he introduced himself. “I am Yin Zichen, a disciple of the Mountain Sea Sword Sect.”
‘Mountain and Sea Sword Sect?’
Zhuang Yuzhen and the others turned to look at him. It was even more difficult for them to escape from here now. The Heavenly Note Sect had managed to capture someone from the Mountain Sea Sword Sect.
So, everyone should stay put and face their deaths together.
“He betrayed the Mountain Sea Sword Sect,” said the old man in explanation.
He then introduced himself. “I am Wu Yang, gatekeeper of the Heavenly Tower.
The Heavenly Kings know about me.”
“So, which Blood Pool is it?” Yin Zichen asked.
“I think it’s better if the Heavenly King could provide an answer,” Nangong Yue said.
Heavenly King Hai Luo glared at her. “Who do you think you are? I don’t need to listen to you or answer your questions.”
“If I’m not mistaken, this Blood Pool contains blood from numerous powerful individuals from ancient times. The most frightening thing is that this pool is very likely the birthplace of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl,” Wu Yang said..
