CULTIVATING IN SECRET BESIDE A DEMONESS

Chapter 1536: Chapter 1322: If I, Gu Jin, ever dominated, I’d suppress an entire era.

Heavenly Tower.

Mr. Tao was sipping tea, with Zhu Shen sitting across from him.

Tang Ya stood by their side, vigilantly watching the surroundings.

Zhu Shen took the teacup that Mr. Tao had handed over and said, “I’ve secretly investigated; the dragon race’s might is too great. Even those two who are currently active are not something a normal sect could contend with.

“They are very strong.

“Aside from Mr. Tao and the second-in-command, others in Heavenly Tower probably aren’t a match,” Zhu Shen added.

“How strong the second-in-command is, we do not know, but those below him fall short,” Mr. Tao said with a smile:

“Facing those two from the dragon race, Heavenly Tower wouldn’t gain much advantage.

“Especially with Mr. Tao remaining in seclusion.

“Previously, with that senior of the dragon race present, sects overseas that dared to say no to them could be counted on one’s fingers.

“Now, it’s normal for most people to be fearful. It’s quite remarkable that a small portion have some ideas,” Mr. Tao continued.

Tang Ya interjected from the side, “But that was before. Now we have the support of the Red Dragon senior and Senior Huang. Logically, it should be much better.”

“Indeed, it is much better,” Mr. Tao said while drinking tea: “They’re temporarily willing to stay with us, so we still have a place overseas, but we still need to maintain neutrality.

“If someone comes knocking, we’ll consider bothering those two seniors only if we can’t handle it ourselves.”

“That’s right, the two seniors have helped us enough. Although they might borrow money and not return it, we have also received many benefits,” Tang Ya remarked.

Mr. Tao simply smiled in response.

We never invited those two because of any ambition.

It was merely to establish a foothold overseas.

Many races have emerged, and Heavenly Tower could handle most of them.

But the dragon race is too strong and domineering.

Heavenly Tower finds it a bit tough to cope.

They also need time to grow stronger, so having those two as a backbone is very necessary.

“Mr. Tao, do you think there might be an accident with the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart?” Zhu Shen inquired.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Tao fell silent for a brief time before shaking his head and responding, “Hard to tell, but there’s more than a sixty percent chance of a problem.”

“Who in the world today can achieve that?” Zhu Shen asked curiously.

The four immortal sects have not made a move to this day, suggesting that the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart is difficult to thoroughly deal with.

Mr. Tao mysteriously sipped his tea and said:

“Didn’t something big happen recently? Nobody just takes a beating without response.”

Zhu Shen was startled upon hearing this: “So that’s how it is, but even if someone strong is behind it, are they necessarily stronger than an immortal sect?”

Mr. Tao remained silent, smiling.

Tang Ya listened from the side, feeling she could understand every word but just couldn’t grasp what they were talking about.

Speaking in riddles, why do powerful people like speaking in riddles?

“Is it that only by speaking in riddles can one demonstrate their prowess?” Tang Ya posed the question.

Mr. Tao laughed heartily and said, “Who knows?”

Tang Ya rolled her eyes and continued to stay alert.

If she didn’t understand, she wouldn’t listen.

The more one wants to know, the more encouraged the person speaking in riddles becomes.

North.

Jiang Hao was counting two hundred thousand spirit stones, quite moved.

The people of the North are quite friendly.

They just gave away two hundred thousand.

The southerners can’t compare; it’s rare for them to be so generous.

Not only are they not generous, but they are also quite poor.

The southern region boasts remarkable people and spiritual places, rich in number.

“This place is quite nice,” Jiang Hao said.

“The scenery?” Heavenly Note Sect inquired from the side.

Jiang Hao shook his head: “The people.”

Glancing at the two hundred thousand spirit stones in Jiang Hao’s hand, Heavenly Note Sect said with a smile, “Because they gave you spirit stones?”

“Senior makes jest,” Jiang Hao said as he put away the spirit stones.

Heavenly Note Sect chuckled and asked, “Where are you off to now?”

“Heading to Sky Sword Lake to check out the sects around there and ask the locals if they know about the Blood Prohibition Stone,” Jiang Hao replied truthfully.

To ask for directions, Jiang Hao approached the nearest sect.

He sensed that the strongest among them was only at the middle stage of Immortal Ascension.

Jiang Hao asked for directions in a very friendly manner; at first, they were somewhat angry.

But once they realized Jiang Hao was just asking for directions, they kindly pointed him the right way.

They even informed him about the sects around Sky Sword Lake.

Following this, Little Wang released his oppressive aura and obediently stepped back.

“Many thanks, Friend Xing.”

After expressing his gratitude, Jiang Hao disappeared from the spot with Heavenly Note Sect.

Initially, they left Little Wang behind.

This caused the Immortal Ascension Realm experts to panic, wondering if they were going to silence him?

Regret filled them.

Just when one of them was about to collapse in fear, Little Wang suddenly disappeared as well.

Thus, the Immortal Ascension Realm expert was taken aback.

For a moment, he felt as if he had just walked through death’s door.

From now on, if someone suddenly comes asking for directions, he definitely won’t play coy.

Pointing the way to a traveler is a good deed, one shouldn’t be stingy.

.

“Didn’t expect that White Cloud Palace would be the sect located near Sky Sword Lake,” Jiang Hao said, walking on air, somewhat surprised.

He knew Chang Wei and Jing Yan of White Cloud Palace, two seniors with decent cultivation.

Not only that, they were good people too.

When he was weak, they had invited him to join them in searching for opportunities.

Without a hint of malice in their hearts.

“You’re acquainted with the people here?” Heavenly Note Sect inquired.

“I met them in the secret realm of Helpless Heaven,” Jiang Hao pondered before saying:

“They saw me as weak and wanted to take me along to search for opportunities.”

“What’s your cultivation level?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

“Now at the middle stage of Spirit Refinement Realm, before I was at the early stage,” Jiang Hao seriously replied.

“Then indeed, you were weak,” Heavenly Note Sect nodded and said:

“But it seems like not many from your sect ascend faster than you. Won’t you become the top disciple soon?”

“The tenth top disciple should be at the peak of the Spirit Refinement Realm or early stage of Return to Void,” said Jiang Hao, thinking for a moment:

“Indeed, there’s a good chance of catching up.

“At most, when he reaches the peak of Return to Void Realm, I should be able to match his cultivation.”

“And then you could become the top disciple?” Heavenly Note Sect asked lightly, smiling: “Could this mean you’ll get to meet your Sect Master?”

“Probably not so easily,” Jiang Hao thought for a moment before adding: “The rules from before have changed a lot after the great era, the Sect Master’s condition, Elder Baizhi’s condition, the sect’s condition, all are different.”
