Chapter 1138: Subduing The Saint Bandits With The Heaven Lock Technique

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In Hidden Cloud Prefecture in the South, in an unknown city, Nangong Yue sat in a courtyard of a rich family’s councilor and sighed.

“Although we have obtained many things, including the talent of the Immortals back then, it is still not enough. We are unable to completely fuse them into our bodies and use them.”

Two people were sitting beside her. One was an old woman, Nangong Hua, and the other was a middle-aged man, Duanmu He.

“It’s been so long. There’s indeed one last step left. I have to make a trip to the Heavenly Note Sect now,” Duanmu He said.

“Before, it was easy to enter the Heavenly Note Sect, but now it’s hard to say. They’ve become more wary of us since the Sea Fog Cave. It’s very difficult to enter it,” said Nangong Hua.

Almost all the people in charge of the Sea Fog Cave had died.

It was the same for those in charge of the Blood Wish Path.

If all these people were alive, it would be much easier.

“I wonder who killed those people.” Duanmu He sighed helplessly.

“The people from the Heavenly Note Sect are not as easy as we thought. We should be careful. Compared to those guys, I know better. Even if I failed, I did not stay there long.”

She had entered the Lawless Tower before. If she could escape it the first time, she could do it again.

“Remember to bring them in,” Duanmu He said as he placed some light clusters on the table.

At that moment, there was a power there that prevented the talent from being used.

Just as Nangong Yue was about to put them away, a voice suddenly came from above.

“I found you!”

Nangong Yue put the things away.

Duanmu He unleashed his power.

However, an invisible hand appeared in the sky and pressed down.

A golden light shone from Duanmu He and shattered the invisible hand.

He was about to leave with his people.

“Stop running. Something is strange,” Nangong Hua said.

“Senior, you’re amazing. You discovered it in an instant.” There was laughter from the sky.

The scholar-like figure slowly descended from the sky.

He stood on the wall and looked down.

His face was not clearly seen.

Even Duanmu He could not see it clearly.

No matter what method he used, he could not pry into it.

“Who are you?” Duanmu He asked.

He was prepared to make a move at any time.

“Who am I?” Jiang Hao said with a smile. “A person who wants to attempt the impossible. Before I do that, it’s better not to reveal my name. Don’t worry. You’ll know my name soon enough. At that time, I’ll be rather dazzling.”

“Since you are so confident, you are naturally not an ordinary person. I wonder why you were looking for us, Saint Bandits, who are hated by everyone?” Nangong Hua said politely.

Jiang Hao fanned himself and thought about it. After a while, he said, “Because I have a favor to ask of you.”

“Oh?” Duanmu He was stunned. “What is it?”

“I heard that you, Saint Bandits, can control your innate talent to seize power, and you are very experienced in recovering your cultivation. I want to ask for your help to recover a person’s cultivation as soon as possible. Are you the most powerful among the Saint Bandits?” Jiang Hao asked.

If they were not powerful, then he hoped they could point him to whoever was powerful.

He could then continue searching.

It did not matter if it was overseas, or the South, or the West.

As long as he could visit, he would make a trip there.

“We are pretty powerful. What can we get in return?” Nangong Yue asked.

“What do you want?” Jiang Hao asked.

Nangong Yue thought for a moment, then took out something and said, “This is a special talent of a race, but there’s an aura inside that blocks the talent. It makes it impossible for us to use it.”

“If you can help us suppress this aura, then we will help you. You can use our help for any number of people.”

Nangong Yue was not lying. She was willing to do anything as long as he could help her with this.

If he could not do it, she could just refuse her help.

But if he decided to attack them, they would lose a lot.

Who knew what this person wanted?

“Oh?” Jiang Hao was a little interested. He then waved his hand.

The talent light cluster flew up and landed in Jiang Hao’s hand.

Duanmu He was a little nervous, but he did not act rashly.

The three of them stared at Jiang Hao.

Since they wanted to negotiate, it was fine for this person to handle the light cluster.

After all, he could not use it for himself.

It would not be easy to leave, though.

If this person did not want to talk anymore, then it would be disastrous.

They did not know if this person would want to talk with them. But they had to risk it.

However, just as they thought this person might tell them to ask for something else, they heard something surprising.

“Eliminate the aura inside? Sure.” Jiang Hao’s voice was clear.

Nangong Yue was surprised. Secondly, she thought he was lying. Thirdly, she thought he was just trying to trick them.

In short, he was lying to stall for time.

“Then, when do you think you’ll be able to do it?” Nangong Hua asked.

“Why not now? I can do it right now,” Jiang Hao said.

However, this sentence made the three of them feel disdain. Small matter?

Not to mention the current world, even the Human Emperor back then did not dare to have such a big tone.

“In that case, please help us. Then, we’ll do our best to help you,” Nangong Yue said solemnly.

“Sure.” Jiang Hao smiled and tossed the light cluster to them.

The moment the talent light cluster landed in front of them, Jiang Hao’s power began to radiate.

Then, he closed the folding fan and moved his hand. He pointed the fan to the ball of light.

He could just use Heaven Lock to release it. He could also use it to lock it again.

Once the talent was locked, the aura would disappear.

At that moment, purple energy surged, and the surrounding space began to distort.

It was as if heaven and earth were trying to reject his technique.

The three people were originally filled with disdain. They wanted to see how the person in front of them would make a fool of himself.

However, when the space distorted, they were stunned.

Then, their eyes widened in shock.

They all sensed it. This was…

But how was that possible?

How could there be another person in this world who knew this technique?

However, in an instant, their eyes were filled with fanaticism.

It was as if they had seen something divine.

They were delighted and shocked.

But soon, they felt worried and afraid,

Then, they composed themselves. They would follow this person anywhere.

Under the influence of the Heaven Lock, the immortal talent was completely locked, and the blocking aura dissipated.

“Alright,” Jiang Hao said proudly. “Can the three of you help me now?”

The moment they heard that, the three of them snapped out of their daze.

They lowered their heads and said respectfully, “Even if we have to die for it.”
