Jing Fengyun set the teacups on the table and poured fresh tea.

He didn’t even want to think too much about Jiang Hao’s instructions

He even chopped firewood with such purpose that everything else was redundant.

Sure enough, five people approached from outside.

It was Mi Lingyue and her group.

They were surprised to see Jing Fengyun preparing tea. The host was indeed hospitable.

But why were they lingering in this courtyard?

Moreover, they sensed the aroma of food.

They were puzzled about the purpose of the person in front of them.

“Would you like some tea?” Jiang Hao made a welcoming gesture. These people had considerable strength and needed to be treated properly.

“Friend Smiling San Sheng, you seem to be in a good mood.” Mi Lingyue sat down. “We came here mainly to seek your help.”

“My help?” Jiang Hao shook his head. “I don’t think there’s anything that I can help with.”

He was not joking. These people were already at the top of the entire island in terms of strength and background.

What he could do, they could do better.

If there was something they couldn’t do, Jiang Hao didn’t think he would be of any use in that aspect.

“Friend San Sheng, please listen to us once. Perhaps you’ll be interested too,” said Mi Lingyue.

The old woman sat down. She was stunned. ‘Smiling San Sheng?’

Was the person in front of them really Smiling San Sheng?

She was sure they were deceived.

However, Mi Lingyue seemed to admire this person. So, Smiling San Sheng must have done something remarkable on the ship.

She hadn’t received any information regarding this. That meant that the information had been withheld from her deliberately.

The fact that the people of Heavenly Tower did that meant that this person was indeed extraordinary.

At that moment, she secretly communicated something as though she wanted someone to pry into this conversation.

“Please go on.” Jiang Hao was also interested.

“Our intention was to find Madam Gong. She has something we want. In the past, it was difficult to meet her, but if we somehow met her, our goals might be closer. However, this time is different. Madam Gong seems to be waiting for someone,” Mi Lingyue said.

“Waiting for someone?” Jiang Hao asked. “Who is she waiting for?” “She said it’s a person with great luck,” Mi Lingyue said.

Jiang Hao frowned and shook his head. “Is there such a person here?”

In his understanding, Chu Jie was most likely to become a person with great luck. However, she was still young and had a long way to go to achieve that.

‘ Madam Gong believes it.” Mi Lingyue nodded. “However, we think there might be a misunderstanding. Perhaps someone has an extraordinary background instead of great luck itself…”

“And then?” Jiang Hao put down the teacup. “Why did you come to me?”

“Because we came in here together. Madam Gong thinks that the special person is not from among us… there’s a possibility that she might be referring to you, Friend San Sheng,” said Mi Lingyue.

She was lying. She didn’t tell him the whole truth, but that was fine for now.

It was easy to arouse his interest.

Jiang Hao was puzzled. Had Madam Gong really discovered him or Hong Yuye?

Hong Yuye wasn’t a person of great luck, but she was immensely powerful. There was the Primordial Heavenly Blade, the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl,

“Is there any benefit in meeting her?” Jiang Hao asked.

He was somewhat interested but didn’t want to cause any trouble.

Being able to detect a special aura meant that the person was quite formidable.

“Madam Gong is different from others. She was once one of the Third Master of the Heavenly Tower and possesses an extremely strong cultivation realm. Besides her treasure and inheritance, she knows far more than others. If she wants to meet you, it’s impossible for us to know what that might entail,” said the old woman.

Jiang Hao turned to look at the old woman. Under the intertwining of her and the young woman’s spirits, a strange spiritual eye appeared. It was staring at him.

“Truly devious.”

His words made the old woman and the others puzzled.

‘Devious?’

They were quite polite. They hadn’t tried to offend him in any way.

Just as Mi Lingyue was about to speak, she suddenly felt a sense of divine pressure.

“Divine Might!”

For a moment, the spiritual fire raged like a sea of fire.

Mi Lingyue was shocked, and her two maids rushed to the front.

However, the spiritual fire did not burn them. Instead, it went straight toward the old and the young woman.

The two were astonished, but the attack was too sudden. They had no time to react.

The flames began to burn, and the painful screams came from the void.

In a breath, the spiritual fire dissipated.

The old woman and the young woman looked at Jiang Hao with pale faces.

How did he find out?

When everything calmed down, Jiang Hao stood up. “It’s much better like this.”

Mi Lingyue was shocked. She had unknowingly brought along the troublemakers, despite being cautious.

“Madam Gong…” Jiang Hao didn’t actually want to meet her.

There were many reasons, but the most important one was that she seemed very strong.

He turned to look at Hong Yuye. She looked indifferent.

“Let’s go and find out why she wants to meet me.”

He was Smiling San Sheng now, and the problems that arose had to be dealt with eventually.

Otherwise, it could lead to trouble.

Leaving Jing Fengyun here, Jiang Hao let Mi Lingyue lead the way.

As for the other two women, he didn’t care about them.

Any reasonable person wouldn’t engage in a fight at this moment.

Everyone had a purpose, and achieving that purpose was the top priority. Jing Fengyun watched everyone leave and sat somewhat nervously in front of the firewood.

He wanted to try chopping wood. He might not be as skilled as the senior, but he just wanted to try.

A while later, Jiang Hao appeared in front of Madam Gong’s courtyard.

He frowned when he saw her.

Madam Gong seemed somewhat ordinary, but also a bit strange.

There was almost no aura on her, and her spiritual essence was completely silent.

Jiang Hao would never believe that she was a living, breathing human being if he hadn’t seen her.

However, she wasn’t dead either. He could sense her emotions.

He looked at the woman beside him.

Hong Yuye frowned slightly and met his gaze. “You’re quite unlucky.”

Jiang Hao was puzzled.

Thump! Thump!

Mi Lingyue knocked. “Senior…”

She had intended to say that they brought the person she wanted. However, even before she could utter a word, the door opened by itself.

Creak!

“Please, come in.’

The sudden change surprised the old woman, Mi Lingyue, and the others.

The door opened on its own, and the voice was respectful.

They looked at Smiling San Sheng in disbelief.

‘Don’t look at me. It’s the person next to me you should be looking at.’ Jiang Hao knew that this was all because of her.

The presence of Hong Yuye was definitely extraordinary. If something strange happened, it was probably related to her.

Outside the Chaos Stone Island, a middle-aged man with a scar on his face stood at the entrance of the valley. His face darkened.

The Island Master was also beside him.

“According to my observation, it’s already the fourth day. You can only enter on the seventh day.”

“I know.”

Tian Chen looked at the entrance in antic.i.p.ation and despair..
