Chapter 450: How Do You Prove You Didnt Steal It?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At midnight, Jiang Hao sat in his room and looked at the stone tablet. Then, he entered it.

The stone tablet had turned out far more useful than he had antic.i.p.ated. However, finding the owner behind the stone tablet was challenging.

But he wasnt in a hurry because he knew that the owner must be incredibly powerful. He was relatively weak. Finding them might even lead to his death.

He needed to wait for the right time. He needed to wait until he could stand a chance against them.

Time was running short.

But he had to make arrangements with Hong Yuye. Chi Tian was part of that arrangement.

After that, he could continue to delay for some time, during which he could focus on getting stronger.

In the public forum, Jiang Hao took his seat. This gathering was likely to catch up with the recent developments, especially considering the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.

As soon as he arrived, he felt the gaze of others on him. It seemed like they wanted to ask him something.

Please, dont look at me. Dont ask me anything. I cant answer your questions.

Jiang Hao sighed inwardly. Because Hong Yuye had intervened this time, it had left Gui and Xing in awe.

Although he had succeeded in establis.h.i.+ng himself as a mysterious and powerful figure here, he knew nothing much.

Liu looked puzzled. It seemed like something significant had happened, but he didnt rush to ask the others.

The four of them greeted Dan Yuan and then sat down.

Since the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment has been a success, you will feel the changes. Be vigilant, Dan Yuan said.

What do we need to be vigilant about? Gui asked.

This was good news for everyone.

Jiang Hao was surprised. The fact that this affected the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl was intriguing. He would need to check it out later.

This time, the Saint Bandits made a move. You need to be cautious of them. The previous mission is still in effect, and any information regarding the Saint bandits should be reported to me, Dan Yuan said.

Then, it was Xings turn to reward them for their help.

I need something cursed. The stronger, the better. Anything will do, Gui said.

Alright. I can provide it to you in a few days. Xing readily agreed.

Then, he looked at Jiang Hao.

Gui also turned to look at him.

The atmosphere seemed to change, and Liu couldnt help but ask, Has something major happened?

Dan Yuan smiled. I heard that during the process of achieving the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, The End of All Things influenced the cultivators with negative rumors. At a critical moment when the Bright Moon Sect was facing difficulties, purple energy suddenly emerged and swept the dark auras away. That was why it was a success.

Liu understood what Dan Yuan implied. Xing had informed them that the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl hadnt erupted before because of the same purple energy. It was probably Jings doing.

After that, Jing informed them that he had given the pearl to a cultivator in the demonic sect. Jing had become mysterious and unpredictable.

What do you need, Friend Jing? Xing asked earnestly. I will make sure you are satisfied.

Help me severely injure someone, Jiang Hao said.

Severely injure someone? This puzzled Xing. Who is it?

Chen Ye of the Blood Shadow Sect. After injuring him, it would be great if you could hand him over to Chi Tian of the Blood Shadow Sect, Jiang Hao said.

Xing nodded in agreement.

Then, Liu brought up the matter of the small island. I investigated and found out that the members of The End of All Things were looking for a great evil on the small island. I think they were searching for the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl, but I dont think they succeeded.

After discussing a few more matters, the gathering came to an end. Since it was an impromptu gathering, they didnt have much to discuss.

After leaving from there, Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Now, he just needed to wait.

Everything that needed to be done had been done. The matter was over, and he didnt need to worry about it for a while.

Back at the sect, he could finally focus on his sect duties. If the sect wasnt causing any trouble, he could concentrate on growing spirit herbs and acc.u.mulating spirit stones. The Holy Medicine Seed would likely be a helpful aid.

Three days later, outside Star-Moon City, Chi Tian walked along the road with a pale face. They were about to return. There was nothing left for them to do here. However, he was somewhat unwilling to leave.

That person hadnt shown up.

Moreover, he would likely die at the hands of Elder Chen Ye of the Blood Shadow Sect on the way back. It seemed Elder Chen Ye no longer wanted to keep him around.

The gap in their cultivation realms was too vast. Any defense from his side was meaningless. With his Golden Core Realm cultivation, he couldnt do anything.

Now, he couldnt even escape. He had missed the opportunity.

He didnt want to run away. If that person was willing to make a move, he could finally have his revenge. If he escaped, he would be giving up on his hope

tor revenge.

Suddenly, the group stopped.

Chi Tian was puzzled.

Chi Tian, someone called his name.

It was a middle-aged man with white hair. Despite his age, he had a powerful aura.

Elder Chen, Chi Tian said respectfully.

Do you know what you did wrong? Elder Chen asked.

Chi Tian was bewildered. Elder, I dont know what you mean.

I heard that you were seriously injured. Is this true? Elder Chen asked.

Yes. Chi Tian nodded.

And youve almost recovered? Elder Chen asked again.

Yes, after proper rest and recovery, I should return to full health soon, Chi Tian said.

Proper rest and recovery? Elder Chen sneered. I heard that someone in our sect lost a healing pill. Did you steal it?

How could that be? Chi Tian was astonished. I have never done something like that.

Are you saying it wasnt you? I told you before that I had a healing pill. It was with me until you got injured, said a woman furiously. I used all my savings to buy it. This is too much!

No! Chi Tian looked at the crowd pointing fingers at him. Please, Elder, I implore you to investigate this matter.

I dont believe you took it either, Elder Chen said with a heavy heart. You are someone I watched enter and grow within our sect. I know what kind of person you used to be, but people change. Especially when faced with death, its understandable that one would take desperate measures and go down the wrong path. If you didnt steal it, then prove yourself. Yes! Prove it! someone nearby said.

But how can I prove it? Chi Tian asked through gritted teeth.

You see? You cant even prove your innocence, and yet you claim you didnt steal it? the angry woman said once again.

Then, do you have any proof that I stole it? Chi Tian asked furiously.

You ask me to find evidence, and yet claim you didnt steal it? said the woman. If you didnt steal it, why are you so nervous?

You Chi Tian was momentarily speechless.

At this moment, Elder Chen said in a low voice, Chi Tian, it seems I cant help you. If you really did steal it, then Ill have to represent the sect in punis.h.i.+ng you.

Elder Chen Chi Tian realized that they intended to kill him here. He would die whether he stole the pill or not.

Chi Tian felt despair when faced with the immense power of the elder.

He hadnt even taken his revenge yet, and now, it seemed like he never would.

Suddenly, a voice called from behind them.. Excuse me, which one of you is

Elder Chen Ye?
