Zhang Hao looked at the exasperated Cao Yang and said lightly, "Brother Cao, you look so fierce. Someone who doesn't know might think I 【expletive】 your old mother!"
"Zhang Hao, you fled the battle, and you still dare to argue?" Cao Yang pointed at Zhang Hao and said angrily.
"That's right, Zhang Hao, you did not complete the mission. You should know that you signed a military order. If the mission is not completed, you will be executed immediately." The Heaven Sword Sect's Fu Zi, Sun Lihai, also stood out and looked at Zhang Hao with a half-smile.
Zhang Hao suddenly burst into laughter. Looking at Sun Lihai, he said, "Heh heh, who told you I didn't complete the mission? Do you have proof?"
Sun Lihai sneered and said, "Heh heh, twelve watchtowers, you can kill everyone by yourself? And not alarm the Heavenly Demon Sect experts in the twelve watchtowers? Do you really think you are an immortal?"
The Martial Warriors from the Heavenly Alliance around also looked at Zhang Hao suspiciously and whispered among themselves. At the same time, they felt a bit of anger, secretly blaming Zhang Hao, thinking that perhaps they wouldn't have been defeated so badly this time if it weren't for him. Although the main reason for their great defeat was the Half-Step Martial Emperor returning early, it didn't have much to do with Zhang Hao.
"Heh heh, since that's the case, why did you still give this mission to me? Wasn't that just asking for trouble?" Zhang Hao said mockingly.
Sun Lihai looked at Zhang Hao and sneered, "That's none of our business now, because you have already signed the military order."
Sun Lihai was also enraged out of humiliation at this moment. This time, his losses were severe. Although he saved his life, his trump cards were exhausted. It was like trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead. Naturally, he needed to find someone to vent his anger on.
"Zhang Hao, although you are an Inner Disciple of my Hao Xian Sect, I, Cao Yang, will naturally not cover for you. So, this time, accept your fate!" Cao Yang stepped forward and looked at Zhang Hao coldly.
Zhang Hao looked at Cao Yang and let out an "Oh!", as if he had just seen him, and said in surprise, "Cao Yang, you're still alive? I thought you died at the hands of that Heavenly Demon Sect's Half-Step Martial Emperor Old man."
Cao Yang was choked with anger by Zhang Hao's words. No matter what, he was a Fu Zi of the Hao Xian Sect, and his status among the Disciples of the Hao Xian Sect was the most respected. Yet, at this moment, he was directly ignored by a Disciple under him.
"Zhang Hao, just admit your guilt. This Fu Zi will not cover for you." Cao Yang forcefully suppressed his inner anger and said in a businesslike manner.
Zhang Hao suddenly burst into laughter. With a nonchalant expression, he said to Cao Yang, "Cao Yang, I always feel like you might be an undercover agent from another Sect infiltrated into our Hao Xian Sect?"
"You're slandering me? What exactly do you mean? Explain yourself!" Cao Yang was instantly enraged, pointing at Zhang Hao with a pale face from anger.
"Isn't that right? From beginning to end, you've been speaking for other Sects, and instead, you've been targeting the Disciples of the Hao Xian Sect everywhere. Isn't that suspicious?" Zhang Hao said mockingly.
"You... are talking nonsense."
Cao Yang was furious for a moment but didn't know how to explain. Because what Zhang Hao said was also an objective fact. At the same time, some Disciples of the Hao Xian Sect from the Heavenly Alliance also looked at Cao Yang with some suspicion.
The Ziyang Sect's Fu Zi looked at Zhang Hao and said sternly, "Zhang Hao, no matter how eloquent you are, you cannot hide the fact that you did not complete the mission. Since you signed a military order, accept the punishment!"
Zhang Hao's eyebrow twitched. He naturally knew that the punishment the other party mentioned was nothing more than killing him.
"Heh heh, who told you I didn't complete the mission? Earlier, I told you, Li Fu Zi, that this Young Master completed the mission. You, Li Fu Zi, wouldn't turn a blind eye to my words, would you?"
Li Junxiong looked at Zhang Hao and said coldly, "Do you think I will believe that?"
Zhang Hao shook his head, took out twelve tokens, and threw them in front of Li Junxiong, saying, "These are the tokens of the twelve watchtower Deacon Elders. See for yourselves. You wouldn't think I'm faking it, would you?"
Li Junxiong took the tokens Zhang Hao gave him and examined them carefully. His expression changed slightly. As a Fu Zi of the Ziyang Sect, he naturally knew that the twelve tokens Zhang Hao took out were indeed real.
"This... how is this possible?" Li Junxiong was instantly astonished.
"Nothing is impossible. How about it? You have the proof now. According to what was said before, I should be considered to have completed the mission, right?" Zhang Hao said with a half-smile.
The other five Fu Zis also took the twelve Deacon Elder tokens from Li Junxiong's hand and looked at them. They all knew that the tokens Zhang Hao took out were real.
"Hmph, who knows if these tokens of yours are real?" Cao Yang looked at Zhang Hao and snorted coldly.
Zhang Hao glanced at Cao Yang and sneered, "I said you were infiltrated into our Hao Xian Sect by another heavenly Sect, and you still don't believe it? Do you think you look like a Fu Zi of the Hao Xian Sect? Probably no one would believe it if you said so, right?"
Cao Yang was instantly speechless, only gritting his teeth in anger.
"Alright, Zhang Hao, indeed, these twelve tokens are all real. But how did you do it?" Li Junxiong looked at Zhang Hao, his expression very shocked.
Zhang Hao looked at Li Junxiong and said lightly, "Li Fu Zi doesn't need to worry about how I did it. Anyway, this time, it should count as me completing the mission, right?"
Li Junxiong nodded and said, "Yes, you are considered to have completed the mission."
Although Li Junxiong didn't want to admit it, he couldn't distort the truth under everyone's gaze. Otherwise, it would greatly damage his status as a Ziyang Sect's Fu Zi.
"Zhang Hao, this time entering the Heavenly Demon Sect's base camp, you should have entered the Heavenly Demon Sect's Baoku (Treasure Vault), right?" Li Junxiong looked at Zhang Hao and asked lightly.
Zhang Hao felt the gazes around him, nodded slightly, and said, "I did get a few things, but because my storage bag was limited, I only brought back a little."
"Oh. Then take the things out?" Yao Jin looked at Zhang Hao and said.
"That's right, your ability to obtain these treasures is also thanks to everyone's efforts. You can't keep them all to yourself." Sun Lihai looked at Zhang Hao and said as if it were a matter of course.
Zhang Hao looked very surprised, looking at Sun Lihai and Yao Jin and asking in astonishment, "What? Do all the Fu Zis want a share from me? Didn't we agree before that whoever gets something keeps it? Could it be that what you said was bullshit?"
Yao Jin was about to say something. But Li Junxiong, who was beside him, said lightly, "Of course, it counts. Whatever you got in the Baoku (Treasure Vault) is yours personally. We were just curious."
Although Yao Jin, Sun Lihai, Cao Yang, Ge Bin, Zhuo Sanyuan, and others on the side were a bit confused, they knew that Li Junxiong must have his reasons, so they held back and didn't speak.
"Haha, it's nothing much, just some spirit stones." Zhang Hao said with a chuckle.
