CULTIVATING IN SECRET BESIDE A DEMONESS

Chapter 1543: Chapter 1325 Is the Demoness Good_2

Walking on the road, I felt the darkness within enveloping me.

But even with a heart as dark as mine, there was a line I wouldn’t cross.

I always adhered to that line.

I never hesitated to kill those who deserved it, and I never touched those who didn’t, unless it was absolutely necessary.

But that doesn’t mean innocent people haven’t died because of me.

However, I wouldn’t let that constrain me.

Ultimately, what I needed to consider first was whether I could survive.

I could only consider the survival of others once I ensured my own.

So I never thought of myself as a good person.

Because in many people’s eyes, I’m a bona fide villain.

As for whether my actions saved people, I didn’t care.

I didn’t need others’ gratitude nor did I mind their hatred.

That’s just the way the world is.

If kindness became a blade that bound me, then I would no longer be sharp.

I would sooner or later die on the roadside.

That’s why I would step aside for those righteous people, I wouldn’t take the opportunities meant for them.

And for their divine items, I would gladly offer them up with both hands.

So the endless darkness that wanted to devour me could never fully succeed.

Jiang Hao sensed the state of his own heart, treading on the pathway beneath his feet.

As still as if sitting in the center of the world.

As clear as a mirror suspended high.

“My heart and my deeds are as clear as a bright mirror, my actions never cause me shame,” Jiang Hao said with a light smile, looking ahead, “Senior, you underestimate people, such feeble means cannot stop a junior like me.”

“How did you get in here? Even the one who came with you should not have been able to enter,” a voice emerged from the darkness, originating from the direction of a growing light.

Jiang Hao knew who he was referring to.

He just smiled and said, “That person doesn’t need to come in; it’s enough that I’m here.”

“What is your relationship with her?” the light grew brighter.

Jiang Hao stepped toward that light.

Soon he stepped into the light.

At that moment, he saw a vast palace.

Above the palace, a cyan-colored gargantuan dragon spiraled.

Each of its scales was imbued with strength, covered with the aura of ages.

It also exuded a hint of a declining state.

“Ancestral Dragon’s senior?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Why ask what you already know? It seems insincere,” said the Ancestral Dragon.

“That’s true,” Jiang Hao nodded.

“There are traces of her strength on your body,” the Ancestral Dragon curiously remarked, “Are you her disciple?”

“No,” Jiang Hao shook his head.

“I thought so, how could a disciple achieve so much? I even sense traces of the great path,” the Ancestral Dragon said with a nonchalant smile.

“You are a genius, an absolute genius, I even detect all sorts of unimaginable auras.”

“Such as that item from the dragon race, and the item from before.”

“You’ve encountered them both, and yet you’re still alive.”

“Truly remarkable.”

“With such abilities, no wonder she values you so highly, even paving the way of the great path for you.”

“So young, so outstanding.”

Jiang Hao faced the person before him with an even expression, “Senior, what you say isn’t correct.”

At these words, the Ancestral Dragon was somewhat astonished, “What did I say that was incorrect? Are you saying you’re not a genius? Or not outstanding enough?

“Are you as a human too self-effacing?”

These words could also be heard by those outside.

But many didn’t understand what the two were talking about.

Even Mr. Tao could only guess.

He couldn’t fully comprehend.

The only one who could understand was Heavenly Note Sect.

That person was talking about her, saying she paved the way of the great path for Jiang Hao.

But Jiang Hao was right.

She didn’t pave the way.

Because she couldn’t.

Only those who knew could understand just how unfathomable that person was.

With three Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearls in hand.

She stood in the Karma Vortex but could break out with extreme force.

Ascended at seventy, achieved Heavenly Immortal status at eighty-two.

The reason why he is a Heavenly Immortal is not because he lacks sufficient understanding to break through the path.

But because his cultivation speed couldn’t keep up with his understanding of the path.

Who could pave the way of the great path for such a person?

At that moment, Jiang Hao looked at the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart, maintaining his calm:

“The senior said I am a genius, but I’m actually not,”

“My innate talents are average; I’ve just been lucky.”

“When I was weak, she appeared, teaching me the Killing Technique and Extreme Techniques. When in danger, she would buy me time, carry me away when injured, and lend a hand when threatened by various powerful beings.”

“Her willingness to do so much wasn’t because of my qualities, but because… she’s good.”

Jiang Hao, looking into the Ancestral Dragon’s heart, said calmly, “Some things are not what we deserve, but what others bestow upon us.”

In the instant these words fell, the Heavenly Note Sect, who had originally been listening to the conversation calmly, was suddenly taken aback.

Gazing at the location of the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart for a moment, she cast her eyes down.

Her previously indifferent gaze grew more complex.

But nobody knew what she was thinking.

But surely, it wasn’t coldness or sadness.

“She’s good?” The Ancestral Dragon, laughing, said, “If that’s what you think, then so be it, but what brings you to me this time?”

“Revenge,” Jiang Hao stated plainly.

“You really are direct,” The Ancestral Dragon sneered, then, with True Dragon Swings its Tail, launched an attack at Jiang Hao, “Then, let me see what you are made of.”

“A genius is a genius, but have you reached the apex yet?”

Watching the Ancestral Dragon launch a sudden attack, Jiang Hao laughed, “Does it matter to you whether I have reached the top or not? The outcome will be the same.”

Jiang Hao gently lifted his hand and threw out a palm.

This palm could dissipate lifeblood and dismantle the True Dragon’s Might.

Boom!

The palm technique met the True Dragon.

In an instant, Jiang Hao was repelled five steps.

And the Ancestral Dragon’s tail was flung away as well.

This force surprised the Ancestral Dragon, “The Dragon Suppressing Technique? The Heavenly Book of Inheritance in your hands?”

“Does it matter?” Jiang Hao took a step forward, his palm technique surging, piercing through the Dragon’s Might, suppressing lifeblood, “Whether The Heavenly Book of Inheritance is in my hands or not, the outcome today is inevitable.”

“Why not simply resign yourself to being the defeated?”

“Arrogance, pure arrogance,” the Ancestral Dragon spoke with an icy voice. “Throughout history, I have seen countless people. During the Human Emperor’s era, the strong were unmatched, but never have I seen such arrogance as yours.”

“If you could see them, I wonder if you would still be so arrogant.”

Jiang Hao struck with a palm that was equal in power to the Ancestral Dragon.

He then followed up, his palm technique growing faster and faster.

His bold laughter echoed, “I don’t regret not meeting the ancients, I regret that the ancients didn’t have the chance to meet me at my most haughty.”

The Ancestral Dragon was astounded, having seen the arrogant but never the likes of this.

Then, he rallied the last of his strength to strike back.

“Not enough, even if you know the Dragon Suppressing Technique, so what?” The Ancestral Dragon’s confidence surged.

“Not enough?” In an instant, Jiang Hao brought out the Blood Prohibition Stone.

In a flash, the power of lifeblood was suppressed, and the True Dragon’s power began to stagnate.

Upon seeing this object, the Ancestral Dragon was incredibly shocked, “You actually brought that thing here? Impossible, the new era has just begun; how could you have obtained it so soon? Even if you knew where it was, you couldn’t have taken it out.”

“Senior, times have changed.” Jiang Hao, wielding the Ancient and Modern Battle Halberd, merged it with the Dragon Suppressing Technique.

Then, the Black-Yellow Curse appeared, and the mark of the Mountain and Sea Seal was shown.

Outside, everyone heard the Ancestral Dragon’s roars of rage, but soon those roars weakened.

The Ancestral Dragon was suppressed.

For a moment, Ao Hai found it hard to believe.

Who exactly is this person?

Why is he so formidable?

Even the Ancestral Dragon is no match for him?

Mr. Tao was somewhat bewildered, the Heavenly Book of Inheritance, the Blood Prohibition Stone, that person actually possessed them all.

This…

Could it be that, indeed, it was someone from Jing?

The likelihood was too great.

The Ancestral Dragon was suppressed, and the onlookers were somewhat surprised.

Everyone felt that the might of the dragon race had been severely weakened.

This matter was probably coming to an end.

But…

Only the Heavenly Note Sect knew that this was just the beginning.

While everyone covertly rejoiced that the Ancestral Dragon’s Heart had been subdued, a voice came from within once again.

It was the Ancestral Dragon, having calmed himself, “You’ve won, but what of it? I can no longer interfere with the outside, but I can still sense what I want.”

“That item is rather special to you, isn’t it?

“Pity you can’t kill me, nor can you stop me from giving a certain guidance.”

“Though I can’t personally lead them, giving a rough direction is not impossible.”

“Also, as long as they are brought back, I can still distinguish them.”

“So, you who are arrogantly disregarding warriors of both ancient and modern times, what can you do?

“Or do you plan to wait until you reach the pinnacle of the great path to come and defeat me?

“Hahaha!

“Can you wait?”
