THE CULTIVATION OF BESIDE DEVIL CULTIVATOR
Chapter.20
Liu Xingchen entered his house and Jiang Hao offered him a seat.
When Jiang Hao followed Liu Xingchen inside, he did not see him observing the Heavenly Fragrant Dao Flower. This confused him. Maybe he pretended not to be noticed.
“Do you why I came looking for you this time?” Liu Xingchen sat down.
“Ah. I almost reached the amount of compensation I had to pay them,” Jiang Hao said.
Of course, Jiang Hao knew Liu Xingchen was here because of the matter with Miao Qian. Jiang Hao gave Liu Xingchen a cup of tea.
“Yes, but not just because of that,” Liu Xingchen said as she sipped her tea. “Male sister, do you know Miao Qian from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion?”
"I'm ready. Yesterday, he bought some amulets from me and said that he did not have enough spirit stones. So, he paid me today,” said Jiang Hao honestly.
“Are you planning on getting that spirit stone today?” liu Xingchen asked as he put down his teacup and looked at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao shook his head sadly. “I guess he did that on purpose. I don't think he'll pay me. He never meant to do it. If I went to the market today, I was sure he would take more of my talisman and would never pay me back. He told me to wait or follow him to the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.”
“He is dead,” Liu Xingchen said.
Jiang Hao pretended to be surprised. He was silent for a moment. Liu Xingchen did not speak any further.
After a while, Jiang Hao broke the silence. “And you're here because they thought I did it?” She asked.
“Ya,” Liu Xingchen nodded. “I went to the market and heard about your little fight. He has a grudge against you. But with your strength, you can't fight it let alone the many things left behind. Logically, I don't think you're too extravagant.”
“What's left?” asked Jiang Hao.
“A group of spirit swords, but the technique is somewhat similar to Junior Brother's. There was a stab wound in the neck.” Liu Xingchen looked ordinary but in reality, he had observed Jiang Hao's reaction closely.
However, he did not see anything for the time being. After a moment of silence, Jiang Hao spoke again. “Did someone try to frame me?”
“It's hard to say, but without proof, the Heavenly Joy Pavilion can't do anything to you. Of course, this also means another.” Liu Xingchen's expression became serious. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Hao. “Without proof, the death of Young Sister will be in vain.”
Hearing this, Jiang Hao broke out in a cold sweat. If he could kill others, then others could kill him as well. Jiang Hao only realized the danger of living here.
“Do not worry too much,” Liu Xingchen said. “Although we are called the Demon Sect, the management is not slack. Killing fellow disciples was not allowed and was rare as it was done last night. Law Enforcement Hall has yet to find a killer they can't catch.”
Jiang Hao sighed in relief. He was happy that his cultivation level was covered by the purple blood mist. If it wasn't for that, he wouldn't have dared to do something like this.
“I heard that the punishment for killing a fellow disciple is very heavy,” said Jiang Hao.
Liu Xingchen nodded. “The penalty is that the person enters the Lawless Tower. This was the most cruel punishment for the sect. After entering it, your cultivation will be absorbed by the tower, and some of them can barely survive unless you have reached a higher cultivation realm. If you dare, you can kill someone else. It may be hard to understand but think of it this way. If someone from the Golden Core Realm enters the tower, they will look weaker than you. At that time, was it better than death? His position would be lower, he would be persecuted and possibly killed if he left the sect.”
“Then everything will be confiscated and dumped into the mine. Whether they live or die, it is up to them,” Liu Xingchen explained.
“Did mine managers kill each other?”
"I don't care."
Jiang Hao nodded. He had heard some things, but he did not know the specifics. From the looks of it, it was still safer in the sect. If he came out, he would really die. Here, he had to be on guard if anyone wanted to take action against him.
“Sister, as long as you are careful, there will not be much danger to your life in this sect,” Liu Xingchen said. “You are a suspect. Your name has been placed on the list of people I have noticed. The Law Enforcement Hall will dig up the truth at all costs. No matter who did this, they would be punished for it. This affects the Law Enforcement Hall of our sect. Anyways." Liu Xingchen lifted her teacup and took another sip.
“Thank you, Senior Brother,” said Jiang Hao thank you.
“The boy's sister is too polite. If not for the greater impact of Yun Ruo's death, Young Brother would not be in any danger at all. By the way, the deadline is almost up. How's it going?" liu Xingchen said.
“It shouldn't be a problem,” said Jiang Hao hurriedly.
"That's great. If you trust me, you can come directly to the Law Enforcement Hall and hand over the compensation to me. I will pass it on to the Heavenly Joy Pavilion, Liu Xingchen said with a smile.
After chatting for a while, Jiang Hao realized that he was not in too difficult a position during this period because the Broken Heart Cliff had given him quite a lot of attention. The Heavenly Excitement Pavilion was angry at him, but he did not want to be at odds with the Broken Heart Cliff.
He could only wait for an opportunity to attack.
As Jiang Hao led Liu Xingchen to the door to drive her away, he asked her something she had been curious about for a long time.
“If someone takes action against me and turns out to be a rare genius, will the punishment remain the same?”
Geniuses usually have immunity. Liu Xingchen smiled.
“It depends whether Junior Brother is dead or not. If you get killed, he should talk about our Pavilion Master. It is said that something like this has happened before. The Pavilion Master, at that moment, said, “No matter how talented the victim is, can you have this kind of genius?” It shook the foundations of Law Enforcement Hall.”
Liu Xingchen is gone. Jiang Hao sighed. The Pavilion Master was truly arrogant. He was worried that he would be arrested for the murder.

The Hundred Flowers Lake.
Hong Yuye frowned. Beside him, Baizhi was even afraid to breathe.
“Tell me about your latest development,” Hong Yuye said expressionlessly.
