Jiang Hao sighed inwardly.

If it were an ordinary time, he would greet the other party using the Heart of Five Elements.

He wouldn’t directly touch upon the person’s bottom line.

That wouldn’t be beneficial for either of them, especially for those who might be able to leave. It would be quite troublesome.

For Mi Lingyue, there was no other way. Only her son’s name could move her.

Zhuang Yuzhen was different. It involved gradually drawing the other’s attention and then undermining their inner thoughts but always leaving a glimmer of hope.

Although he knew about Mi Lingyue’s son, he still didn’t know the child’s specific location, so she didn’t have to worry too much. However, Yin Zichen was different from these people.

He was being directly hit. It was quite a blow.

This made it very difficult for him to speak up.

Jiang Hao was unsure how he would react.

He could only take a step back and stand quietly.

Upon hearing Jiang Hao’s words, despair appeared in Yin Zichen’s eyes. It was more absolute than death itself.

He instinctively took a few steps back and finally sat against the wall.

His face darkened. He looked desolate.

This change made everyone shudder, especially Wu Yang.

He had actually attempted to provoke the person in front of him before. Now, it seemed wise to avoid any provocation if possible.

“Senior, there’s no need to be disheartened. Perhaps, before long, you will be able to leave. It’s not entirely hopeless,” Jiang Hao said as he looked at him.

“Hope?” Yin Zichen looked up at the person in front of him with some regret.

If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have willingly let him try the power of the King.

“It won’t be long before you can leave, Senior,” Jiang Hao said.

“What do you mean?” Yin Zichen frowned and looked at Jiang Hao. He genuinely didn’t understand the meaning behind Jiang Hao’s words.

“It depends on your own choice,” Jiang Hao said.

If he agreed to hand over a certain item, he would probably be rescued by Gui.

There was still hope.

Not handing it over would extinguish that hope. Even the most foolish person would know how to make a safe choice.

Jiang Hao turned to look at Mi Lingyue and the others.

The latter instinctively retreated behind Mu Longyu.

“Do you guarantee it?” Yin Zichen asked as he looked at Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao glanced at him but did not answer.

Then, he turned his gaze to Heavenly King Hai Luo. Hai Luo stopped breathing momentarily.

“I’ve been speaking softly recently. I admit I used to speak a bit loudly. How about I don’t speak at all?” Heavenly King Hai Luo asked tentatively. “Maybe I shouldn’t talk?”

Jiang Hao wanted to inquire about the matter of becoming an immortal, but ultimately, as a Golden Core Realm cultivator, it wasn’t suitable to ask such questions.

Finally, he left some wine for Zhuang Yuzhen and informed him that the Corpse Realm Flowers were about to bloom.

Perhaps people from the Divine Corpse Sect might come soon.

Zhuang Yuzhen understood Jiang Hao’s intention. He could redeem himself with his sect.

But he was still concerned about something. “Did you make a decision?”

“Senior, what do you mean?” Jiang Hao asked.

He seemed to have nothing to consider.

“I want to take a look at the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower,” Zhuang Yuzhen said.

Jiang Hao was puzzled. “I cannot make decisions on that front.”

This person should be aware that the flower was with him, but he wasn’t the owner.

Zhuang Yuzhen was quite surprised. “Ask someone from the Lawless Tower.”

Jiang Hao became even more puzzled.

Then, he bid farewell to Mu Longyu and Mi Lingyue and left.

Outside, Senior Sister Yinsha thought of something. “I’ve been too busy lately and forgot to tell you something, Junior Brother Jiang. Zhuang Yuzhen wants to see the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, and Elder Baizhi’s instructions are to follow your orders.”

“Follow my orders?” Jiang Hao was shocked.

Was he really that trusted?

Elder Baizhi was indeed bold. She even dared to entrust him with such decisions.

Should he agree?

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Hao once again approached Zhuang

Yuzhen.

He used his ability to appraise him. There was no special change. His appraisal showed him that the other person really just wanted to see the divine flower and nothing else.

He wanted to see it because that flower had changed his life.

Jiang Hao said softly, “Senior, get ready.”

He then turned and left.

Zhuang Yuzhen let out a sigh of relief. Indeed, the Lawless Tower hadn’t conveyed the message at all.

“Old rascal, you’re getting what you wished for,” Heavenly King Hai Luo said.

‘When will I get what I wish for? He still refuses to talk to me.” Nangong Yue sighed.

She had waited a long time just to know what that person had said. But she never got an answer.

Mu Longyu lowered his head. The others didn’t know what he was thinking.

After advising Heavenly King Hai Luo, he left.

He had agreed to visit this sect and teach the other person a lesson, but he didn’t.

Kings shouldn’t clash unnecessarily. It benefited no one.

However, Mu Longyu wasn’t sparing Hai Luo because he wanted to.

After all, currently, all eleven kings wanted to discipline Hai Luo, and his taking action wouldn’t bring any consequences.

The reason he didn’t act was that he had lost interest.

Other matters had aroused greater interest in him.

As they prepared to leave, Mi Lingyue couldn’t help but ask, “Why didn’t you teach King Hai Luo a lesson?”

She had always wanted to reprimand him. His behavior on the fifth floor had been unbearable.

“It’s useless to teach Heavenly King Hai Luo a lesson. He won’t leave willingly.

He won’t beg for mercy even if he is beaten half to death, unless… that Golden Core Realm cultivator does it.”

“Why do I feel like you’re troubled?” Mi Lingyue asked.

Mu Longyu nodded. “Before meeting that Golden Core Realm cultivator, I didn’t have many thoughts. But after seeing him, I thought of something.” “What is it?” Mi Lingyue felt curious.

The other was indeed extraordinary, but was there anything important associated with him?

“Do you remember how he made people submit to him?” Mu Longyu asked.

“By revealing secrets. It was like he was able to discern deep-seated weaknesses in people,” Mi Lingyue said.

At that time, she had been absolutely sure there was no issue, but she had still compromised just to be safe.

“Yes. It’s not easy to get to know these things. So, there might be an exceptional figure behind him—someone who knows countless secrets of the world.” Mu Longyu looked at the woman beside him. “Such a person may not be the strongest, but they have information, broad insights, and knowledge beyond others.”

“Do you know what that implies?” he asked.

“What?” Mi Lingyue asked.

“Do you think he knows about the Great Thousand God Sect?” Mu Longyu suddenly asked.

Mi Lingyue was stunned. “You mean to ask him…”

Mi Lingyue had been seeking a way to break free from the Great Thousand God Sect. She had learned some things from Madam Gong, but none were useful.

She wouldn’t resort to them unless absolutely necessary.

“Yes. Perhaps he is the right person to talk to about this matter,” Mu Longyu said.

“No.” Mi Lingyue shook her head. “I’ve investigated him. Outside, he seems like an ordinary disciple. It’s only inside the Lawless Tower that he becomes somewhat special. This indicates that someone either restricts him, or he doesn’t want to mention these matters outside. Almost no one from the Lawless Tower has any hope of leaving. So, the restrictions don’t affect him. Outside the tower, he might not bring up anything at all.”

“What do you mean?” Mu Longyu frowned.

Lawless Tower voluntarily for a reason..”
