Chapter 1026: Golden Core Cultivators In The South
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Chuan had been gone for five years.
In the past five years, Xiao Li and the others occasionally talk about him. After all, they had grown up together in the sect and sparred with each other many times.
Xiao Li was more concerned about whether Junior Brother Chu would get lost in the wilds outside.
In her village, children often got lost and went missing. She would help to find them by following their scent.
However, her mother did not want anyone to find out that Xiao Li could find people by their scent.
When the children were eventually found, they did not tell the others that Xiao Li had found them.
Jiang Hao was surprised.
“What’s written in the letter?”
He had heard some things from Xing, but he did not know if it was related to Chu Chuan.
Chu Chuan would be thirty-one years old. He was not young anymore.
Cheng Chou immediately opened the letter and handed it to Jiang Hao.
“Senior Brother Jiang, what does it say?” Xiao Li moved closer to him.
Jiang Hao looked at the letter. The first line read: “Senior Brother Jiang, when I sent this letter, I was at the borders of the Hidden Cloud Prefecture. In five years, I will walk out of the first prefecture in the South. I’ve taken the first crucial step.”
Jiang Hao could feel Chu Chuan’s excitement through the words.
The Hidden Cloud Prefecture was huge. It took people months to find the borders of that prefecture.
There were sixteen prefectures in the South. His excitement was only natural.
Jiang Hao looked at the envelope. Chu Chuan mentioned that he had encountered many things along the way.
He had encountered injustice and had to kill some people to save others.
Many accused him of killing the innocent. But he knew what they had done, and why they deserved death.
“Those people kidnapped young children and extracted their innate lifeblood for themselves. There was a bounty out for them. When the people in the city found out I had killed them, they thought I was the one who was crazy. I tried to explain, but they wouldn’t listen. They said I was a demon capable only of evil.
It just doesn’t make sense. I thought of you then. I learned from you that no matter how much good you do in the world, no one notices. So, I didn’t bother explaining any further. I killed those people because they were wrong, and I didn’t have to explain why. But my intentions were misunderstood. My actions alarmed the immortal sect, and they surrounded me. But I have become stronger. I made some good friends along the way too. Unfortunately, I have to keep moving forward, so I can’t stay with them for long.
After I ventured outside, I understood a little of the difficulties you went through, Senior Brother Jiang. In the future, I’ll become powerful enough to be able to split the four seas with a single strike of my sword. My being will be filled with endless light. At that time, I will return to the Heavenly Note Sect and look for you. I’ll be happy to show you how powerful I will have become… how you have made me.
I’m about to advance to the Golden Core Realm as I’m writing this. Is Senior Sister Xiao Li no longer my match? Well, I can find twenty Lin Zhis alone now. Maybe I can even fight Senior Brother Cheng Chou. Please tell Lin Zhi to wait for me, so that I can return, and we can fight together again. Also, Lord Beast’s name is quite useful. I was about to die once, but Lord Beast’s name saved me.”
Jiang Hao found the letter rather funny. But he had to admit Chu Chuan’s journey had not been easy.
He had understood that when Xing had told him of his encounter.
Chu Chuan had been fighting then.
Golden Core Realm at thirty years old was impressive.
“I have sent pastries for Senior Sister Xiao Li, some medicinal pills for Senior Brother Cheng, and some defense treasures for Lin Zhi so he can protect himself better. I have also sent some beef jerky for Lord Beast and some spirit herbs for you, Senior Brother Jiang.”
“There are no pastries anywhere! He’s lying!” said Xiao Li as she looked at the letter.
Jiang Hao looked at Cheng Chou.
“I only received the letter,” said Cheng Chou and shook his head.
Jiang Hao nodded. He was not surprised.
It was already surprising that the letter was delivered. Someone must have taken the other things for themselves.
In the letter, Chu Chuan said that he wanted to go to Heavenly South Prefecture.
“Senior Brother, am I really a demon?”
Jiang Hao handed the letter to Xiao Li.
She wanted to read it.
The contents of the letter recorded what had happened to Chu Chuan, but it did not give many details about his journey.
Chu Chuan also sounded confused. Although he was strong and capable, he was still young. He sought approval from someone he respected.
After Jiang Hao went back to his house, he felt that he needed to reply to Chu Chuan.
It would give him more confidence on his journey.
If he came back to the sect because of doubts he held, it would be difficult for him to venture out again.
After being outside for five years, it was natural for him to feel lost and confused.
In fifty years, he would be sure of himself.
However, it was quite troublesome to deliver a letter.
He was not familiar with the Heavenly South Prefecture. There was only one person who could deliver the letter for him.
“Gui still owes me a small reward. It feels like a waste, but maybe I can use that to deliver the letter.”
Jiang Hao sighed with emotion.
It would be worth it if the letter would give Chu Chuan and prevent him from returning to the sect.
He had no choice but to wait for a gathering to happen.
Gui was familiar with the heavenly South Prefecture. With her influence, she could easily deliver the letter to Chu Chuan.
He was not worried that he would be discovered. After all, Xing already knew about it.
In the Heavenly South Prefecture, along the Yellow River of Nine Winds, Bi Zhu walked out of a formation with a bitter smile. “What good luck! We found a teleportation formation!”
But what use was luck when she was always facing death?
Gu Changsheng’s fortune originated from the West, but she could feel it even in the South.
The whole situation left her baffled.
Up until now, nothing had happened to the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl.
However, Gu Changsheng did not agree. He insisted that she was going to die.
It made her uneasy.
“Princess, why did you suddenly want to come here?” Qiao Yi asked curiously.
She knew that the more the princess relied on the luck she was given, the more she was in danger.
But what could she do?
What could a cultivator in the Primordial Spirit Realm like her do?
“I’m here to find the Human Emperor’s Palace.” Bi Zhu looked at the river. “I thought this place would be spectacular. I didn’t expect it to be just an ordinary river. The Yellow River of Nine Winds… The name sounds grand, but I feel like I have been cheated on what was promised.”
“Actually, it wasn’t like this in the past,” said Qiao Yi after a while. “I’ve heard of this place before. It’s vast and boundless, and it flows endlessly. However, as time pa.s.sed, it slowly dried up.”
Bi Zhu walked forward.
Along the way, they suddenly heard the sound of voices reciting poems.
“Don’t you see the water of the Yellow River coming from the sky… Uh, the artistic conception is wrong. This Yellow River of Nine Winds is ordinary. Did you find the wrong location?”
“This is the river. It’s the most prominent river among all Yellow Rivers. There’s a high possibility that something must be hidden here.”
“Are we here to find that?”
“That’s not it.”
Bi Zhu felt strange. There were people here.
She walked ahead and saw a middle-aged man with stubble and a young drunkard with messy hair.
It looked like they were at the Golden Core Realm.
The two men turned to look at her.
“This little girl doesn’t look ordinary…” the middle-aged man said curiously.
“There’s nothing unusual about her. It’s just her luck. That’s why she can see us. Maybe she can lead the way,” said the young drunkard.
When Qiao Yi saw the two Golden Core Realm cultivators, she recalled what had happened in the West.
From experience, she could tell that these people were not really in the Golden Core Realm.
Bi Zhu was speechless.
Why were there such people in the South?
