Heaven Refining physique-Chapter 192: Blood Mist

"You will only die with those four now. Let’s find them. Let’s see what is so special about that Soul Sea Realm cultivator you spoke of.

But before that... there’s no need for the others. I think you alone will be enough to give me all the answers I want."

The moment the lion finished speaking, Bo Wen, the monk, along with all the early-stage Heavenly King cultivators and void reversion cultivators, turned into bloody mist on the spot. They weren’t even able to scream, much less react.

Jiang Hao was stunned, as he hadn’t seen any kind of attack. It was as if they burst under mere pressure—whether it was spiritual pressure or something else, he didn’t know.

But one thing was certain—it was definitely some kind of restrictive power. After all, even the cultivator who had tried to commit suicide earlier hadn’t been able to.

The blood mist didn’t fall to the ground. Instead, it gathered together, forming a blob of blood that moved towards the lion, who ate it like a delicacy.

"I missed this taste... Very well. I’ve decided to visit the human regions once this is over. Since you came first, it’s only natural I return the favor."

Jiang Hao sighed. If what it said was true, then many people were going to die. And the nearest city from here was none other than the one where the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion was situated.

In the end, it was all because of these top three sects. And given the lion’s attitude, it would surely not forget to brag about why it had visited the city.

So the blame would definitely fall on these three sects. He just didn’t know if they would even care.

As for the matter of Senior Mei Ling, since she was a friend of Senior Huan—he might have to make a visit to warn her.

Given his recent increase in spirit qi, he could directly teleport to the city now, so it wouldn’t be difficult.

"Well, that ended quite unexpectedly."

Yin Ni spoke and continued, "I’m going to sleep, so goodbye." Saying that, she disappeared. Jiang Hao knew she had returned inside the ring.

At least now, he could move freely from now on.

Yao Ying flicked her finger again. This time, Jiang Hao tried to observe the movement of her finger carefully, hoping to see if any kind of qi was released—but he wasn’t able to glean anything.

And when he looked around, he was already on the mountain covered in mist.

He sighed and didn’t think too much about it.

Yao Ying turned around and thought for a second before waving her hand again—and to Jiang Hao’s surprise, many trees were uprooted from the mountain and, in mere seconds, they all transformed into four houses placed beside her own.

"That was quite an eye-opening experience, Sister Yao," Senior Zhi Hui spoke.

"I hope they are to your liking," Yao Ying replied calmly.

Huan Caiyi shook her head and said, "This is more than enough, Sister Yao."

She couldn’t help but notice one similarity between Jiang Hao and Yao Ying. Both were completely expressionless. It was as if nothing short of a truly surprising or impactful event could evoke any reaction from them.

She didn’t dwell on it and looked to Jiang Hao.

"Let’s make a trip to the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion."

Jiang Hao nodded. He had thought he might have to go alone, but it seemed Senior Huan had some business there as well.

...

They arrived at the outer forest near the city and entered while covering their faces. Although all the cultivators from the three sects present in the Eastern Region were already dead and no one could truly stop Huan Caiyi right now, it was still better not to create an uproar.

Jiang Hao didn’t enter the pavilion, as he didn’t feel the need. Instead, he went to check on the shop belonging to Blazing Valley.

Upon arriving, he saw that it was up and running again.

Jiang Hao shook his head and left the city. He had already told Huan Caiyi he would be gone for a while.

He wanted to visit his village.

After coming out, he teleported directly to the nearest mountain and called out to the fox. freēnovelkiss.com

"I am here."

"Master?... Wait, I will be there."

Jiang Hao didn’t respond and instead looked toward the village. In his eyes, everything looked perfectly fine—but he knew this village was invisible to anyone who had no connection to it.

Shortly after, the fox appeared beside him.

"Master, everything is okay. There were no new changes."

Jiang Hao sighed. He really didn’t want her to keep calling him Master.

"You did a good job. Here."

He took out a portion of Grade 3 and Grade 4 herbs that he had obtained from the inheritance site and gave them to her.

Seeing the amount of herbs was enough to stun the fox, but she still accepted them. She knew Jiang Hao wouldn’t take them back.

"I’ll go and meet Mother. After that, I’ll leave."

"Okay," she said, gathering the spirit herbs in her mouth and returning to her cave.

Jiang Hao walked back to the village.

After reuniting with his mother, he was pleased to see her health. She looked much healthier now.

Jiang Hao stayed for half a day and then went back to the city.

This time, when he returned, he planned to ask Senior Yao who had tipped off these sects about his origin. Finding out on his own was impossible—there were too many people he could suspect, most of them from the Mountain Sword Sect.

But since the cultivators from the Mountain Sword Sect didn’t seem to have intervened in the matter, it was definitely someone else.

There were many people who had seen him in the city when he first appeared—most of them during the test to join the Mountain Sword Sect’s disciple team for the Dark Forest expedition.

It was definitely someone from among them.

He wouldn’t have cared about it if his mother hadn’t been put into danger because of it. But now that this single action had caused that, he would kill them.

As Jiang Hao arrived in front of the pavilion, he saw that Senior Huan came out and nodded to him.

"Let’s go back."

They left the city, and Huan Caiyi said,

"Well, I’ve already done everything I can. Let’s see if this city survives or not. It all depends on that old man who was too stingy to give even a single extra spirit stone without reason."

Jiang Hao had a knowing expression. He knew she was talking about the elder who sat in the treasury pavilion of the Mountain Sword Sect.
