Jiang Hao could clearly feel the series of changes from the moment he noticed the energy fluctuations to the moment he headed to the Spirit Herb Garden.

The fight last night illuminated the night sky.

The violent power had made him hesitate.

Such power was at the level of the branch masters or even higher.

Not only was there violent power but also treasures that pressed down on the surroundings.

Judging from their aura, they could be divine artifacts, especially the towering divine platform in the sky which prevented the power inside from spreading.

Was this really an ambush?

Jiang Hao was skeptical.

But if the sect said it was an ambush, then it must be.

The instigator was thought to be the Heavenly Saint Sect.

The Heavenly Saint Sect and the Great Thousand God Sect were already enemies.

An ambush was possible.

After all, the people of the Great Thousand God Sect were always after the divine soul of the Holy Master.

Jiang Hao waited in the Spirit Herb Garden for the others to arrive. He was curious about last night’s fight.

He knew something was fishy.

Liu Xingchen would know what had happened.

But it seemed he had gone out of the sect again.

When Xiao Li arrived, he went with her to the Cliff Master’s house.

The names of the selected candidates were out, and they were asked to meet Elder Baizhi.

When they arrived, Senior Brother Bai Yi was there.

Han Ming was also present.

“Junior Brother, Junior Sister, you’re here,” said Bai Yi.

Jiang Hao bowed, and Xiao Li followed suit.

“There are only three of you from our branch, which is fewer than I expected. Master is not free at the moment, so I’ll take you to the White Moon Lake,” said Bai Yi.

Jiang Hao nodded.

Xiao Li did not mind either.

Han Ming looked at Jiang Hao. He looked a little hesitant.

But he still had the fire in his eyes. It seemed that Han Ming would stop at nothing. His future was promising.

Jiang Hao did not mind. The more talented Han Ming was, the better it was for him.

At that time, a flying treasure appeared in front of them, and Bai Yi looked at everyone. “Let’s go.”

After a while, they arrived in front of the gates of White Moon Lake.

Jiang Hao and the others requested to see Elder Baizhi.

This was Xiao Li’s first visit here. She looked around curiously.

“It’s so beautiful!” she exclaimed.

Senior Sister Zhou Chan was at the gate. She was extraordinary and had already made it to the late stage of the Golden Core Realm.

Jiang Hao was surprised at her quick progress.

Senior Sister Zhou Chan had only been one realm behind him when they first met.

Junior Brother Han Ming had encountered many opportunities, but he still could not catch up to Jiang Hao.

However, it was hard to say when it came to fighting.

“Follow me,” Sister Zhou Chan said and led the way.

Bai Yi nodded. He ushered the others inside.

In the courtyard, Elder Baizhi sat on a chair. She looked calm and indifferent.

As soon as Jiang Hao entered, he sensed that Elder Baizhi’s spiritual energy seemed weaker than usual.

How could this be?

He thought of last night. Did Elder Baizhi make a move last night?

It was no wonder the power had been so great.

However, he was a bit puzzled. Why did the sect resort to such drastic measures?

“Greetings, sect Master.” Bai Yi bowed respectfully.

Jiang Hao, Han Ming, and Xiao Li followed suit.

“So, you are the ones selected from the Cliff of Broken Hearts…” Baizhi looked at Jiang Hao and the others carefully.

“Yes. The Cliff Master is not available at the moment, so I brought them along to see you,” Bai Yi said.

Then, he signaled for Jiang Hao and the others to introduce themselves.

“I’m Jiang Hao,” Jiang Hao said first.

“Han Ming,” said Han Ming.

Xiao Li stood straight. “Xiao Li.”

“It seems that the new generation of the Cliff of Broken Hearts has quite the talent,” said Baizhi calmly. “You all seem unique.”

Bai Yi lowered his head.

Indeed, there was something different about these disciples.

Han Ming was strong. Everyone knew that.

But Jiang Hao and Xiao Li performed way better than ordinary disciples normally would.

“Since you have been selected as candidates to be the top disciples, you must improve your cultivation. If you stay in one realm for too long, you will be kicked out of your candidacy,” said Elder Baizhi.

“How long do you think you can take until you challenge a top disciple?” she asked.

Her gaze fell on Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao sighed inwardly. “I was lucky enough to do well in the competition. I’ll work hard to improve myself to be able to challenge the top disciple soon.”

Challenging a top disciple was very difficult.

The top disciples did not delay. They constantly improved themselves and had all the resources at their disposal.

If one was not a True Disciple and a genius, they could never hope to challenge a top disciple.

Han Ming’s eyes burned with determination. “I’ll not disappoint the sect.”

Then, Baizhi looked at Xiao Li.

“I’ll learn from my Senior Brothers and work very hard,” said Xiao Li.

“Very good.” Elder Bai nodded in satisfaction. “I hope to see your brilliant performance in the future. In addition, as selected candidates, you need to lead a mission. A mission will be assigned to you within three years. After completing it, your status will be officially established as a candidate for the top disciple position.”

Jiang Hao sighed inwardly. He did not mind doing it. There was no doubt Han Ming would do well at it too.

Unfortunately, Xiao Li was not really suitable to lead a team for a mission.

He did not know what would happen if she was selected as a team leader on a mission. He thought that when the time came, he would make the spirit beast go with her. That way, there would be no problem.

Elder Baizhi mentioned that it was okay as long as the task was completed and that they did not have to worry much about being assessed as a leader.

Xiao Li might still be able to do it.

She was undoubtedly strong.

After that, the group of people left White Moon Lake.

Baizhi watched them leave from afar and frowned.

Then, she got up and headed to the Lawless Tower.

She made her way to the upper floor of the Lawless Tower.

A group of people were imprisoned here.

The leader of the group was the white-haired woman, Zhuang Dongyun.

As soon as she saw Bazhi, she smiled amiably. “Elder Baizhi, is there a misunderstanding between us?”

“There may be.” Baizhi nodded. “I thought you might be Feng Hua in disguise.”

“I see… that’s understandable.” Zhuang Dongyun nodded. “But since we aren’t, I hope it’s enough to clear any misunderstandings?”

Baizhi shook her head. “Although there’s nothing to prove that one of you may be Feng Hua in disguise, we can’t rule out the suspicion we have. Feng Hua has threatened us and promised that she’ll make us suffer. Since you are from the same sect as her, it would make us uneasy unless we find her and can believe that none of you may be her in disguise. I hope you can understand.”

“I understand, but how can we tell you of which we know nothing?” said Zhuang Dongyu. “How about this? I’ll write a letter to our sect and instruct them to find Feng Hua. To be honest, I, too, don’t like her secretive nature. It tarnishes our sect’s reputation.”

“That would be best,” Baizhi said reassuringly. “But I will prefer it if I know the contents of this… letter. Can I write it on your behalf?”

“That’s fine,” Zhuang Dongyun said after thinking for a moment. “You can address it to a fellow sect member, Hu Yue. You can write: My friend, how have you been? It’s been three years since we last met, and things have been a little rushed… There’s a reason for this, and I earnestly request your help in discerning the truth. With sincerity, please assist us.”

Baizhi wrote it down. “I’ll send this out soon.”

“Thank you. I hope our misunderstanding can be resolved soon.” Zhuang Dongyun smiled.

With that, Baizhi left.

Yinsha was waiting outside.

At that moment, Baizhi handed her the envelope with the letter.

“Put your people up to the task of discerning this letter. See if there is any hidden meaning in there. If everything is clear, take it to the fifth floor. Also, take the Old Man Corpse Sea back to the fifth floor. He knows a lot of things and might be of use to us.”
