Jiang Hao frowned when he saw the person appear suddenly.

The other party’s concealed aura was incredibly strong.

Among the many undercover agents, few could surpa.s.s this person.

Moreover, their strength seemed as bright as the sun in the darkness.

They were disguised as a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.

“A Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator calls me Junior Brother?” Jiang Hao looked at the person. “Do we know each other?”

It was not uncommon for a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator to address him as Junior Brother, but this person must have known him from way before.

For instance, Senior Sister Xin Yuyue was still in the late stage or peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Even now, he addressed her as Senior Sister.

If they hadn’t known each other before, Jiang Hao might have addressed her as Junior Sister instead.

He didn’t recognize this person. He would surely remember if he had met someone this powerful before.

“Oh, I was hasty.” Yin Wei then adjusted his cultivation to the late stage of the Golden Core Realm. “Is this acceptable if I want to call you Junior Brother?” Jiang Hao nodded.

He had intended to use his Daily Appraisal ability to identify the person. but he realized that his recent advancement had gone so smoothly that it was already late at night.

“Junior Brother, what trouble did you cause that made you hide so well?” Yin Wei asked curiously.

“Who are you, Senior Brother?” Jiang Hao asked.

“I’m Yin Wei,” Yin Wei said politely.

“Yin Wei?” Jiang Hao was surprised. “Why were you looking for me, Senior Brother?”

Rumble!

In the distance, there was a tremor of power.

Jiang Hao could sense that the two powers were clashing, and the cold dominated everything.

Yin Wei also noticed it.

He sighed. “The top disciple of the Heavenly Note Sect is indeed remarkable.” “Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded. “Senior Sister Leng’s strength is truly astonishing.”

The top ten disciples were all quite extraordinary, at least in terms of combat. Even someone as powerful as Senior Brother Bai Ye or Senior Brother Qian Chen would be inadequate when compared to the top ten disciples.

They weren’t weak themselves.

One was the peak master of alchemy, and the other had created a unique path of the Blood Wish Path.

Compared to them, his only advantages were faster cultivation and some decent combat ability.

“Do you know how strong she is?” Yin Wei asked curiously.

“I do.” Jiang Hao nodded.

Yin Wei had been observing him for some time, so there was no need to hide things from him.

Being the subject of someone’s attention was not a good thing and could easily lead to danger. Therefore, many times, he would eliminate potential threats in advance.

“I see,” Yin Wei said. “I don’t have much time left, so I want to take you out of here.”

“Take me out of here?” Jiang Hao asked. ” But why?”

“Because of the Blood Wish Path. I need a special kind of blood,” said Yin Wei truthfully.

“A special kind of blood?” Jiang Hao thought for a moment. “But I don’t use the Blood Wish Path.”

“Perhaps you truly don’t know…” Yin Wei as he stared at Jiang Hao. “You are definitely suited for the Blood Wish Path. If you earn it, you definitely won’t be an ordinary cultivator in the Blood Wish Path.”

“Do I have a talent for it?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Yes. I’ve seen many pract.i.tioners of the Blood Wish Path, and none of them are like you,” Yin Wei said. “So, even if you’re not a Blood Wish Path pract.i.tioner, I still want to take you with me.”

Jiang Hao understood that whether he was a Blood Wish Path pract.i.tioner or not was now irrelevant. Yin Wei would take him along anyway. Moreover, it appeared that Senior Sister Leng was looking for Yin Wei’s group.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, “If I go with you, what will happen to me?”

“You will die,” Yin Wei said truthfully.

With a sigh, Jiang Hao said, “In that case, I can’t agree to the offer, Senior

Brother.”

“I know. That’s why I’ll use force if you don’t come with me willingly.” Yin Wei took a step forward.

However, he suddenly stepped back.

Jiang Hao was startled. “Senior Brother, you are quite impressive.”

“What iust happened?” Yin Wei asked.

He had nearly been sealed away.

“It’s my divine ability,” said Jiang Hao.

Yin Wei was the first person to escape from his Heavenly Cauldron. He was far from ordinary.

“Divine ability? It’s so powerful.” Yin Wei seemed to have realized something. “You’re not really in the Golden Core Realm, are you?” “I’m not.” Jiang Hao shook his head. “You’re in your thirties, right?” Yin Wei asked.

“Yes.”

“You’re really not a pract.i.tioner of the Blood Wish Path?”

“Then, how did you advance so quickly?”

Jiang Hao lowered his head but didn’t answer the question. Instead, he looked at the other person.

At that moment, he had a blade in his hand. It was the Primordial Heavenly Blade.

“Do you know who I am?” Yin Wei asked curiously.

“You’re a member of the Saint Bandits from the Heavenly Spirit Tribe,” Jiang Hao said.

“Yes. Do you know what our goal is?”

“To break the limits of the races and achieve unity under the heavens.”

“You know that?”

Yin Wei was shocked, but the next moment, the other person vanished.

He quickly defended his vulnerable spots.

Sure enough, a blade swept near his neck, but he narrowly avoided it.

The attack was very powerful.

If he hadn’t dodged it, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

He was about to retreat, but Jiang Hao appeared once again. The blade swung.

There was a flash of moonlight.

Yin Wei frowned. “Junior Brother, you’re getting too close. You’re not taking me seriously.”

Then, he formed two fingers into a sword and stabbed.

The knife was severed from his left hand, but his right hand had already touched Jiang Hao’s body.

With a clank, both of them took a step back.

Yin Wei was astonished. ‘What just happened? An impenetrable defense?’

However, the opponent’s blade struck again. It descended like a hundred thousand mountains, and the terrifying power of it left him in awe.

Both were in the late stage of Return to Void Realm. The opponent’s power was somewhat strange.

Not daring to hold back any longer, Yin Wei crushed his own heart and allowed the stolen power to flow throughout his body.

In an instant, his eyes turned bloodshot, and his arm became as strong as a pillar. It struck back against the terrifying blade.

Boom!

Both sides were forced to retreat a few steps, but Yin Wei knew the opponent would attack again and was prepared for it.

Suddenly, a surge of even greater power erupted.

A figure moved with incredible speed behind him.

A blade pierced through his body before he could react.

It was so fast that he hadn’t even gotten the time to react.

What kind of Return to Void Realm pract.i.tioner was this?

Just when he was about to fight back, the figure appeared in front of him.

The sword pierced his body.

Then, more swords shot out from all directions. It pierced his limbs and ran through his body.

Finally, a long spear pinned him to the stone wall.

He was about to run out of time. He no longer hesitated and was ready to self-destruct to alert Nangong Huo. Hopefully, he would be able to escape.

This person was terrifying.

Fortunately, his self-destruction process wouldn’t be interrupted. It was a talent given to him. If he decided to self-destruct, only he could stop the process and no one else.

In an instant, his talent ignited. A power erupted.

“You can’t stop this. Run!” Yin Wei shouted.

His main goal was not to kill the opponent. He was self-destructing to give Nangong Huo a slim chance at survival.

His self-destruction would trigger a series of effects.

However, just as he thought his self-destruction ability was about to succeed, a hand pressed on his chest.

The previously raging power was suddenly quelled.

The explosion had been stopped. The person who had stopped it was none other than Jiang Hao.

“How is this possible?”

In his understanding, there was only one person capable of stopping the explosion of self-destructive talent: someone who had learned the Heaven Lock Technique.

At that moment, he looked at Jiang Hao again, and his mind was in turmoil..
