Chapter 709: The Twelve Judges

Zhang Hao put away the four corpses of the White Jade Flying Tigers on the ground, leaving one. Then he said to Su Fei, "I'll leave this one for you!"

Su Fei quickly waved her hand and said, "My benefactor, that's not what I meant."

Zhang Hao smiled faintly and said, "Young Master knows, but these White Jade Flying Tigers aren't of much use to Young Master anymore. So, take this one!"

What Zhang Hao said was indeed sincere. He only needed one, at most two, beast cores from the White Jade Flying Tigers. Taking more would be useless. Moreover, although Su Fei was a bit of a snob, in Zhang Hao's opinion, her nature wasn't bad. When he encountered the Mighty Ape King, Su Fei was also worried for him. Therefore, even if Su Fei had been more excessive to him later, Zhang Hao didn't truly blame her.

"Thank you, My benefactor."

Only then did Su Fei gratefully accept. She did indeed need this White Jade Flying Tiger. After all, the adventure group had lost many members this time. These companions needed to be compensated. And they hadn't gained much from entering Feixian Forest this time. But now, with Zhang Hao's White Jade Flying Tiger, their trip to Feixian Forest wouldn't be entirely in vain.

"Alright, we need to leave now. Be careful from now on."

After speaking, Zhang Hao left with Liu Mengyao.

On the way, Liu Mengyao smiled at Zhang Hao and said, "I thought you would hold a grudge against them, but I didn't expect you to be quite soft-hearted sometimes?"

Zhang Hao nodded and said nonchalantly, "If you put yourself in their shoes, you might make the same choice if you were in their position. So, in the end, I decided to forgive them. Besides, Su Fei, that little girl, isn't bad at heart."

"Hmph, I don't think you're looking at her nature! You're looking at her figure, aren't you?" Liu Mengyao looked at Zhang Hao with a half-smile.

Zhang Hao gave an awkward smile and said to Liu Mengyao, "Mengyao, you've seen right through my little thoughts! You're really the fat worm in my stomach!"

Liu Mengyao looked at Zhang Hao and chided, "Who's the fat worm in your stomach? That's disgusting."

Zhang Hao smiled awkwardly.

In fact, Liu Mengyao felt a bit strange in her heart. She actually said something like that just now, which would have been absolutely impossible in the past. Could it be that being with this guy was subtly influencing her?

Liu Mengyao shook her head, dispelling these complicated thoughts.

"Rustle, rustle, rustle..."

From the opposite side of the bushes, the sound of clothes rustling could be heard. Immediately after, more than a dozen Martial Warriors appeared in front of Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao's brows twitched. These people seemed to be from the Hao Xian Sect. Looking at their unfriendly appearance, he also felt the extremely dangerous aura on these dozen people. Clearly, the newcomers were very strong.

Soon, twelve Martial Warriors formed a pocket shape, surrounding Zhang Hao and Liu Mengyao.

These twelve youths had cold expressions, as if everyone owed them money and hadn't paid it back.

"Are you from the Hao Xian Sect?" Zhang Hao's brows furrowed as he asked.

"That's right, we are all from the Law Enforcement Hall of the Hao Xian Sect. Please come with us," the White-Browed Youth leading them said to Zhang Hao in a cold voice.

Zhang Hao looked at the aura of the other party, and his brows furrowed.

"High Stage Martial Overlord!"

"Could you be the Twelve Judges of the Hao Xian Sect's Law Enforcement Hall?" Zhang Hao looked at the leading White-Browed Youth with a solemn expression and asked.

The Twelve Judges of the Hao Xian Sect were a very powerful force in the Hao Xian Sect's Law Enforcement Hall. They were almost all composed of the strongest Inner Disciples of the Hao Xian Sect. Each of them was an undisputed Genius in the Inner Sect, breaking through to High Stage Martial Overlord before the age of twenty-five. Their status was equivalent to that of a regular Elder in the Inner Sect, possessing supreme authority.

"Even if you are the Twelve Judges, Young Master hasn't violated any sect rules, so you have no right to take me away, do you?" Zhang Hao smiled coldly.

"That's not up to you. For a mere Inner Disciple like you to warrant the dispatch of our Twelve Judges, it's already your honor. This Judge advises you to obediently come with us. Someone wants to see you," the leading White-Browed Youth looked at Zhang Hao and said coldly.

Zhang Hao's heart skipped a beat. There were definitely not many people in the Hao Xian Sect who could command the Twelve Judges. Tu Zhan was one, but he would definitely not target himself. Sect Leader Cao Jun was also unlikely. The remaining answer was obvious.

"It was Wen Guangyuan who sent you, wasn't it?" Zhang Hao looked at the White-Browed Youth and asked sharply.

"Heh heh, daring to call the Deputy Sect Leader by his name, how bold. Now, this Judge can charge you with the crime of disrespecting your Elders," the White-Browed Youth smiled coldly at Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao laughed heartily, saying mockingly, "Do you think that's meaningful? Regardless of whether there is this crime or not, with Twelve Judges dispatched together, you probably won't back down easily."

The White-Browed Youth glanced at Zhang Hao, smiled faintly, and said, "You certainly see things clearly. Now, I warn you to obediently come with us. That way, you can suffer less."

Zhang Hao knew that things couldn't end peacefully now. However, he wasn't afraid. He just pointed at Liu Mengyao beside him and said to the leading White-Browed Youth, "She has nothing to do with this matter. I hope you won't make things difficult for her."

The White-Browed Youth glanced at Liu Mengyao and said, "We naturally won't make things difficult for unrelated personnel."

"That's good!"

After Zhang Hao finished speaking, he said to Liu Mengyao, "Mengyao, you should go!"

Liu Mengyao immediately looked at Zhang Hao anxiously and said, "Zhang Hao, since we came together, we should naturally go back together."

Zhang Hao looked deeply at Liu Mengyao and said, "Don't worry, they can't make things difficult for me. As long as you are safe, I will be safe."

Liu Mengyao looked deeply at Zhang Hao, also understanding his meaning. She knew that being by Zhang Hao's side might even distract him.

"Zhang Hao, I'll wait for you."

After speaking, Liu Mengyao gritted her teeth and flew away.

Of course, Liu Mengyao didn't leave too far, but hid not far away, closely observing the situation here.

The leading White-Browed Youth felt the increasingly strong fighting intent on Zhang Hao's body, his brows furrowed, and he said, "Heh heh, it seems you're still planning to fight us. You really don't know what's good for you."

"Heh heh, enough nonsense, let's fight. Forget about you, even if that old scoundrel Wen Guangyuan came, I would dare to draw my blade!"

"Clang!"

Zhang Hao's Blood God Blade was unsheathed, full of Killing Intent.

Zhang Hao felt that the White-Browed Youth was the strongest among this group, having reached the eighth level of Martial Grandmaster, only one step away from reaching the Peak of Martial Grandmaster. He was a relatively troublesome enemy. The other eleven Martial Grandmasters had mostly just entered the seventh level of Martial Grandmaster. Their cultivation level was still a significant gap from the White-Browed Youth.
