Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness Chapter 1306: I Didn't Misjudge You

Chapter 1306: I Didn’t Misjudge You

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Hao began leading an ordinary life to calm his heart.

Before he could grow stronger, he needed to solidify his state of mind and avoid any disturbances.

Only then could he bear more power and acquire even more remarkable magical treasures.

He was not particularly a n.o.ble or a great person. He wanted to gain power and control it effectively, which required a strong mind.

Otherwise, the power would control him, and he might end up doing terrible things.

Realizing something like this too late would be even more disastrous.

The allure of power could easily trap anyone.

Sudden wealth or unexpected authority was no different, let alone the kind of power that others could not dream of.

This was the most terrifying poison for the mind.

Although Jiang Hao was trying to stay calm, there were always people in the world causing great disturbances.

At this moment, the Fallen Immortal Clan and the Clear Sky School’s experts were engaged in a fierce battle.

Boom!

A member of the Fallen Immortal Clan was slammed to the ground.

“Clear Sky School… You really won’t let us leave?” asked the furious Fallen Immortal Clan member.

“Don’t make it sound so harsh. Besides, who said anything about the Clear Sky School? I’m only here to represent myself,” said a middle-aged man who appeared younger and more powerful by the minute.

“What exactly do you want?” The Fallen Immortal Clan member asked in anger.

“Nothing much. Just stay away from Smiling San Sheng for fifty years,” said the middle-aged man.

“We just want to leave. We’re not making things difficult for Smiling San Sheng,” said the Fallen Immortal Clan member.

The middle-aged man chuckled. “Smiling San Sheng might appear overseas. Do you think I don’t know your people will go after him? Don’t think for a moment I don’t know.”

Hearing this, the Fallen Immortal Clan member’s face changed. Then he said, “If you know, you should understand that if Smiling San Sheng dares to appear, he will surely be targeted by many, and he will eventually die. Moreover, aren’t you curious? To achieve the True Immortal Realm in just a few decades, he must possess a great secret. Before, when he wasn’t an immortal, maybe you didn’t care. But now that he’s achieved the True Immortal Realm, don’t you think it’s strange? What if he has a Dao fruit? We don’t want his secrets. We just want him dead. We can cooperate. You can take that treasure, and we’ll take his life.”

The middle-aged man looked at the Fallen Immortal Clan member and frowned. “Your words are indeed tempting, but what if Smiling San Sheng doesn’t appear overseas?”

“So? For people like us who don’t have any opportunities, it’s still worth trying. What if we succeed? You won’t need the opportunity, yet you’ll gain more. I don’t need the opportunity, but my great enemy would be gone,” said the Fallen Immortal Clan member.

He was an old man who seemed to know that his path had come to an end. He was even willing to use himself to eliminate Smiling San Sheng.

“Indeed.” The middle-aged man nodded.

Just as the Fallen Immortal Clan member felt a glimmer of hope, an invisible power suppressed him.

Agonizing pain made the Fallen Immortal Clan member scream. He was furious. “Don’t you care at all?”

“I do.” The middle-aged man nodded. “I really want such an opportunity. To progress so quickly… It’s irresistible. Unfortunately, it doesn’t belong to me. I’m a member of the Clear Sky School. People say that the Clear Sky School is the strongest and most powerful among the immortal sects. If I were to rob a junior disciple in greed, I wouldn’t be able to show my face anywhere.”

“Can’t bear to show your face? It is no wonder you can’t ever make any progress,” said the Fallen Immortal Clan member and laughed.

“That might be so, but we’ll still surpa.s.s your Fallen Immortal Clan in every way.” The middle-aged man laughed.

“You’ll regret this. There are plenty of people who want what you don’t. If Smiling San Sheng dares to go overseas and fight, he’s destined to die,” the Fallen Immortal Clan member said.

The middle-aged man remained unmoved.

The world was complicated. How could there be only one kind of perspective?

In the West, Yan Yuezhi stood in front of the threshold in the backyard for a long time. The threshold avoided her.

She had not been able to come here for a long time. Today, she finally walked in.

The subsequent tests in the backyard could not stop her either.

In the backyard, she saw three people whom she had not seen for a long time.

They lounged around on chairs and drank tea in the sun.

They did not care about her arrival.

“Greetings, Seniors,” Yan Yuezhi said respectfully.

“Greeted us? Then you can leave now,” Jing Dajiang said casually.

“I have something to tell all of you, Seniors,” Yan Yuezhi said softly.

“If it’s not important, then there’s no need to say it.”

“It’s not unimportant, but it might cause various changes.”

“What is it?” Jing Dajiang sat up and looked at Yan Yuezhi. “Little girl, are you trying to pique our interest?”

“I don’t dare.” Yan Yuezhi shook her head.

Her face did not change at all.

“Speak then, what is it? But let me make it clear, we’re tired these days and don’t plan to go out. No matter how big the matter is outside, it won’t make us move from here. If you feel wronged, you can go find the Sect Master,” Jing Dajiang said solemnly.

Yan Yuezhi ignored him. “Something happened overseas. It’s said that the Five Demons ambushed Smiling San Sheng.”

Yan Yuezhi told them about Smiling San Sheng getting ambushed and injured.

Then, she told them that the Five Demons were waiting for Smiling San Sheng to come overseas so they could take revenge.

If nothing unexpected happened, someone in the shadows would definitely make a move.

Jing Dajiang and the other two immediately stood up when they heard Yan Yuezhi.

Jing Dajiang looked at Yan Yuezhi in appreciation. “Young one, I always knew you’d achieve great things in the future and lead our academy to glory. You didn’t disappoint. We misjudged you in the past and thought that you were only here to make mischief, but we were wrong.”

“Seniors, are you planning to go out?” Yan Yuezhi asked curiously.

Jing Dajiang seemed dissatisfied. “Why are you calling us ‘Seniors’? You’re a student, and we’re the old ones in the academy. Call us ‘Teachers.’ Also, Smiling San Sheng isn’t just anyone. His matters are our academy’s matters. If someone wants to kill him, we can’t just sit by. Of course, if Smiling San Sheng wants to fight, we can’t intervene. But we won’t let those in the shadows make a move.”

Jing Dajiang walked up to Yan Yuezhi and said seriously, “If there’s anything related to Smiling San Sheng in the future, just call out for us at the door. We’ll open the door for you.”

Yan Yuezhi looked at the three seniors and remained silent.

After that, she watched the three seniors head overseas.

She was also curious to see if Smiling San Sheng would really go overseas.

Would he win?

Logic told her that even if he did go overseas, he was destined to fail.

In nine years, it was nearly impossible for an early-stage True Immortal to challenge someone at the peak of the True Immortal Realm.

Not even the greatest in history could do it.

The time gap was simply too vast.

…

A year and a half later, around mid-January, Jiang Hao was standing in his courtyard and feeling sentimental.

He was already seventy-three years old.

He was an old man.

He walked to the courtyard and collected three bubbles.

One of them dissipated.

He glanced at his interface.

[Lifeblood: 100/100 (can be cultivated)]

[Cultivation: 100/100 (can be cultivated)]

He could finally advance to the middle stage of the True Immortal Realm.

After waiting for such a long time, he finally could advance.

He wanted to see what it was like to break through in cultivation with the Dao involved.

Would his cultivation contain the breath of the Dao?
