Chapter 644 - 644: Needs To Raise The Price

As Jiang Hao read the contents of the jade slip, he sighed. The deeper he went for the tasks set by Hong Yuye, the more he felt that his cultivation realm wasn’t enough.

He was quite confident, but now, things were different.

He could confront people here directly.

Even exerting his full power would be difficult, unless he had Hong Yuye with him.

However, with Hong Yuye, his abilities would be suppressed.

So, he headed toward the coast alone.

He already knew Shangguan Qingsu’s appearance, so finding her shouldn’t be too difficult.

As for the bell, he sealed it without inspecting it till he had the chance to check if there was an issue.

At the coastline, the main road of the city extended all the way to this place, with numerous pavilions built along the coast.

Many people in these pavilions were fishing, just like the people on the shore. They were all trying to catch something special.

Even he had trouble detecting the creature now with the nameless manual and Hong Meng Heart Sutra.

They were difficult to detect. It indicated that these creatures were extraordinary.

After some time, Jiang Hao saw a woman sitting in one of the pavilions. There were three people in total in her pavilion, including her and two other men. Both men emitted an aura not weaker than the woman’s.

‘Three people… This might be tricky.’

Jiang Hao hesitated for a moment and then appraised the woman.

[Shangguan Qingsu: An Elder of the Great Thousand God Sect in the early stage of the Immortal Ascension Platform. She’s afflicted by the Curse of a Hundred Nights, and when she exerts her full power, the curse will spread throughout her entire body within five breaths. It is enough to take her life. Under ordinary circumstances, she’ll be tormented every three months with excruciating pain. It’s difficult to suppress, and the next torment is in three days. She fishes for the Nether Fish to accumulate spirit stones in search of a way to break the curse. For one thousand spirit stones, she can do something for you. For fifty thousand spirit stones, she can tell you anything. For a hundred thousand spirit stones, as long as it’s not life-threatening, she will agree to whatever you want. To save her life, she’s willing to do anything and sell out anyone.]

‘Afflicted by a curse and unable to use her full power while enduring agonizing pain? Curse of a Hundred Nights? What kind of grievance led to such a curse?’ Jiang Hao was uncertain, and he didn’t know when she was afflicted with it. Apart from this, there was something else that caught his attention.

‘Nether Fish? Can I earn spirit stones from it?’

It was likely that it could fetch a lot of spirit stones, or why else would so many people be fishing for it?

As for the people around Shangguan Qingsu…

Jiang Hao closed his eyes and activated the nameless manual. When he felt he had accumulated enough energy, he opened his eyes again.

This time, he gazed at Shangguan Qingsu and noticed various fluctuations in her aura. Among these, there was a faint dark aura, which was likely the curse.

What surprised him was that all three people in her group had the same black aura. It indicated that they were all afflicted by the curse.

However, he didn’t detect this in anyone else nearby.

It seemed that the three of them shared a similar experience.

Jiang Hao quickly thought about it. Then, he headed toward the pavilion.

When he approached, the three people inside turned to look at him. They were all holding fishing rods and waiting for the fish to bite the bait.

However, they were curious about the person who had entered their space. No one had dared to enter the pavilion before.

“I, Smiling San Sheng, offer my respects to you, Seniors,” he said.

“Young friend, you want to fish here?” Shangguan Qingsu asked.

She wore a green robe and had her hair in a simple bun. She was slightly pale. To her left was a middle-aged man with a stubble. He appeared quite rugged.

To her right was a young man with an exceptionally pale complexion. He looked weak and feeble.

“You can sit here and fish. Just don’t disturb us, and pay one thousand spirit stones,” said Shangguan Qingsu.

After that, she moved to the left to make room. The place was quite spacious, and it could accommodate four more without a problem.

Jiang Hao smiled and handed over one thousand spirit stones. Then, he took a seat.

“Do you have any fishing rods?” he asked.

“One thousand spirit stones for a day,” Shangguan Qingsu said. She took out a

fishing rod. It was a pretty decent magical treasure.

Jiang Hao took the fishing rod. “Thank you, Senior.”

He immediately gave her one thousand spirit stones. He had never expected that he could sit here and fish.

“Do you need bait?” Shangguan Qingsu asked.

Jiang Hao smiled and shook his head. “No. I’m sure I’ll catch what I’m looking for without bait.”

Shangguan Qingsu raised an eyebrow at that, but she didn’t say much. The other two men were also silent.

Jiang Hao felt the aura around him. After confirming that their dark auras were similar, he asked, “Senior, are you from the Great Thousand God Sect?”

“It seems you have done your homework on us,” Shangguan Qingsu said nonchalantly.

“Yes. I have some questions I’d like to ask you.” Jiang Hao nodded.

Since he was confident, there was no need to hide anything.

Although he wasn’t sure if he would succeed, he had to give it a try.

Shangguan Qingsu gazed at the sea. “You can ask, but you’ll have to pay the price with spirit stones. The more you pay, the more I’ll answer.”

“I don’t intend to pay spirit stones, Senior.” Jiang Hao smiled.

After he said it, there was a pause, and a pair of cold, disdainful eyes glanced at him.

It seemed as though they might kick him out at any moment.

Jiang Hao didn’t pay any attention to her, and he continued to look at the sea. “Senior, if you want spirit stones to make your life easier, why bother seeking help from afar?”

Shangguan Qingsu raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean?”

“I suddenly thought of a question,” Jiang Hao turned to look at Shangguan Qingsu beside him.

Confronted with such cold gazes, he remained unfazed.

“What do you want to ask?” Shangguan Qingsu said.

“In three days, if I can help you go through the day safely without feeling any pain, I wonder how many spirit stones that’s worth. Would it be enough to ask questions that I want to ask?” Jiang Hao said calmly.

In an instant, the individuals froze.

Then, they looked at Jiang Hao in amazement.

Moreover, they even sealed the surrounding area. It wasn’t clear whether it was to guard against others or to capture the person in front of them.

Jiang Hao smiled but didn’t say anything. He was also feeling anxious.

With his current connection to the golden ring, he should have enough time to escape if something happened.

As long as the Immortal Mountain Sea Shield could withstand one strike, he could leave safely.

Soon, Shangguan Qingsu dissipated her aura. She gazed at Jiang Hao. “How did you know about that?”

Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief. He just continued with his fishing.

“Senior, why bother asking? If it’s hidden, I wouldn’t have known. If it isn’t hidden, then why wouldn’t I find out about it?” he said. “Do you really have a way?” Shangguan Qingsu asked.

The other two were also staring at Jiang Hao.

“Yes, but it’s limited to getting through the pain in three days from now,” Jiang Hao said.

“What do you want to ask?” Shangguan Qingsu asked.

Jiang Hao looked at the sea and was silent for a while. “Feng Hua’s weakness.”

“Feng Hua?” Shangguan Qingsu frowned. “We are good friends, and she has helped me several times before. She even risked her life to save me once.”

“So?” Jiang Hao was intrigued.

“I have to raise the price,” Shangguan Qingsu said seriously..
