Chapter 349: Leaving The Sect? No Can Do
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The next day, Jiang Hao received news that many disciples wanted to leave the sect, including Lin Zhi.
...Most of them were planning to return home for a while.
Such things happened every few years.
Since he had brought Lin Zhi to the sect, the person in charge of the outer sect informed him of this development.
After passing the message to the spirit beast, Jiang Hao stopped thinking about it further.
Originally, Xiao Li might have gone back as well, but she no longer had any family.
Jiang Hao sighed as he looked at the list once more.
He found Cheng Chou.
“Take Xiao Li back in a couple of days.”
“Understood.” Cheng Chou nodded.
Two days later, Jiang Hao took care of everything.
Coincidentally, he could also guide Chu Chuan during this time.
Given his progress, achieving Foundation Establishment Realm within three to four years would be challenging.
However, with the delay of the Bright Moon Sect’s Dao Conference, there might still be enough time.
“Senior Brother, when can I go to the Bright Moon Sect?” After suffering several defeats, Chu Chuan asked.
“In a few more years,” Jiang Hao said. “But you might not make it in time. If you can’t achieve the Foundation Establishment Realm, would you still want to
“Of course, why wouldn’t I? If I don’t go, Chu Jie will worry about me,” Chu Chuan said earnestly.
“When you see that Chu Jie has reached heights that you can’t reach, how would you feel?” Jiang Hao asked.
“I wouldn’t mind, I’d just catch up. I not only want to surpass Chu Jie but also Senior Sister Xiao Li… even the Lord Beast.”
“I hope you can maintain this confidence even after you meet Chu Jie,” Jiang Hao said softly.
Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment Realm was not something you could catch up to easily.
Even catching up with Xiao Li would be difficult.
On the other hand, the spirit beast was the easiest to surpass.
Back in the courtyard, Jiang Hao noticed that the spiritual energy had diminished significantly. It was almost back to its original state.
‘What’s going on now?’
He found no changes after careful examination.
He then started making talismans. He had earned quite a bit of spirit stones in the past few days.
The only regret was that the cost of materials had gone up.
But if he wanted to earn spirit stones by making talismans, he had to accept the higher prices.
After all, he was planning to sell talismans during the period of increased demand.
In the past few days, he had felt his Clear and Pure Heart almost completely restored. It would be at its peak in another month or two.
In the following days, Jiang Hao sold talismans. He now had around forty-five thousand spirit stones.
He also heard that the Grand Competition was confirmed.
The rules were the same as the last time, with rich rewards for first place in each realm.
Moreover, if no one achieved first place, the few disciples in the top ranking would get an equal share of the rewards.
Jiang Hao knew that the competition would be fiercer than ever before.
After all, the reward would be quite substantial.
He also wanted to participate. But when Liu Xingchen told him another piece of news, he just gave up.
“It’s said that our sect has received an invitation from the Bright Moon Sect for the Dao Conference. The winners of the competition will get to attend the conference. ”
Jiang Hao decided not to participate in the Grand Competition. “Do you want to go, Junior Brother Jiang?” Liu Xingchen asked.
“No.” Jiang Hao shook his head.
“With your ability to achieve feats, I believe that if you go to the Bright Moon Sect, you might achieve some notable accomplishments. If that happens, there probably won’t be many in the sect who would dare to trouble you. You could even become a True Disciple,” Liu Xingchen said.
Jiang Hao felt helpless. It wasn’t safe for him to venture out of the sect.
He felt that the way things were now was pretty good.
Although he had encountered some troubles along the way, he had smoothly progressed to the peak of the Primordial Spirit Realm.
“When will the competition start?” he asked.
“Next month, I think.”
Jiang Hao nodded.
By that time, he could find out what the rewards were. This time, he might be able to get something without making it to the first rank.
If there was something he needed, he could strive for second or third place.
If it wasn’t necessary, he could just choose to lose. Or he could just not participate.
Back at the Spirit Herb Garden, Miao Tinglian was complaining to him.
“I heard that the mines are getting busy, and Mu Qi has to go again. He just came back from the Corpse Realm! They might send more people to the mines to help out.’
Jiang Hao was delighted to hear that. He wondered if he should volunteer to help out.
At the Hundred Flower Lake, a gentle breeze blew. The rain drizzled lightly.
Hong Yuye sat in the pavilion. She looked at the teacup on the table, seemingly lost in thought.
She coughed lightly.
Soon after, a white figure appeared at the side of the pavilion.
“Sect Master.” Baizhi bowed to her.
Hong Yuye turned to glance at Baizhi. “Why are you so badly injured?”
At a glance, Baizhi seemed normal. No injuries in sight. However, her lifeblood and spiritual energy were nearly depleted.
“The Heavenly Saint Sect collaborated with some outsiders. Although they were caught off guard, their combined strength was still formidable. We managed to severely wound them and imprison them in the Lawless Tower. However, some of them… escaped.”
The Heavenly Note Sect had not only declared war on the Heavenly Saint Sect but also provoked the outsiders. The situation had become dangerous.
After all, other sects were also keeping an eye on the Heavenly Note Sect.
Once they allied, it would be a crisis for the Heavenly Note Sect.
But all these matters were hers to handle. She was the Acting Sect Master. She didn’t need to report it to the Sect Master.
“What do the overseas people want with the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Bead?” Hong Yuye asked.
“According to the Heavenly King, it’s for great luck,” Baizhi said.
“Great luck?” Hong Yuye looked at Baizhi. “Does something like that even exist?”
Baizhi said hurriedly, “I will continue to interrogate him.”
“What about that person from the Fallen Immortal Clan?” Hong Yuye asked.
“The treasure is still inside her body. Unless she agrees voluntarily, special secret techniques will be needed to extract the treasure. We’re investigating what we can do,” Baizhi said.
There hadn’t been much progress, and she was quite concerned.
Hong Yuye didn’t say much but asked about the gains from the recent battle.
“We obtained quite a few magic treasures, pills, spirit herbs, as well as some techniques, formations, and records of talismans.” Baizhi took out many things out of her pocket. “I’ve arranged for part of them to be sent to the Hall of Merits, and the rest will be used as rewards for the competition, just like before.”
Hong Yuye looked at the things. She picked up a few books.
After that, she put them back.
Seeing that the Sect Master hadn’t spoken, Baizhi said, “Our people have started going overseas to contact the members of The End of All Things. It will take some time before we get any information. Jiang Hao successfully advanced to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm after entering the Corpse Realm. His advancement each time is too coincidental, and I suspect that someone is secretly guiding his cultivation when he goes out, and also providing him with various pills or other assistance to help him advance. Only then would he encounter opportunities every time. But there’s no evidence. Lately, he has been normal. There is no sign of anyone contacting him. Although suspicious, his intentions don’t seem to be that of a spy. The Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower is well. It has grown six leaves so far.”
At this, Hong Yuye took out a transparent box containing a pair of boots.
She then threw them to Baizhi.
Baizhi understood. Rewards were naturally given for achievements.
“Continue investigating,” Hong Yuye said calmly.
She gave more instructions on various matters.
After that, Baizhi left the lake with the box.
She still couldn’t understand why the Sect Master wanted to keep Jiang Hao around and why he was getting so much attention from her.
However, she had to admit that Jiang Hao did wonderfully at extracting information from the captives in the Lawless Tower.
‘Perhaps, I can let him intervene.’
She didn’t want to get too deeply into matters concerning the sect because he was still suspicious, but he was indeed extraordinary.
Both Zhuang Yuzhen and Hai Luo obeyed him. Whether it was luck or strength remained to be seen.
The next day, Jiang Hao was still feeling regretful for not volunteering yesterday.
Today, he planned to inquire about the rewards for the competition. As soon as he stepped out, he received a communication talisman.
“Go to the Lawless Tower to see Gu Qing..”
