Hong Yuye didn’t say much. The issues and the relevant actions were up to Baizhi as the Acting Sect Master.
“Is there anything else?” she asked.
“The treasure obtained from Gu Qing has been fully tested. The treasure is called Heaven-Piercing Shuttle. It possesses the ability to travel through space and the capability to conceal itself. It’s temporarily placed in the Law Enforcement Hall because it can be used to pursue special enemies,” Baizhi said.
“What about the progress regarding the End of All Things?” Hong Yuye asked.
“For now… there’s nothing. However, we’re still monitoring Azure Mountain to check if they have any contact with those overseas. Our people have already infiltrated The End of All Things. We should be able to find out who is in contact with Azure Mountain,” Baizhi said earnestly.
Although she still didn’t understand why the Sect Master was concerned about these matters, she didn’t dare to be negligent.
Hong Yuye gazed at the flowers outside in silence. After a long pause, she said, “What about Jiang Hao?”
“Nothing major. But recently, the spiritual energy in his courtyard has surged. That seems to be related to Bai Ye. His cultivation is decreasing rapidly, but it’s unclear why. As a True Disciple with many accomplishments, he should have sought help from the Law Enforcement Hall. However, he hasn’t said anything so far. There’s a probability that the person who is backing Jiang Hao must be threatening him. I don’t think there is any enmity between them, though. It’s difficult to say for sure. However, since it has nothing to do with traitors or spies, I haven’t really paid much attention to it.”
Hong Yuye nodded.
After reporting on the status of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, Baizhi left.
Back at White Moon Lake, Baizhi was still confused.
She couldn’t understand why the Sect Master paid so much attention to Jiang Hao and the End of All Things.
However, Mu Qiu came from the End of All Things. He had admitted to it.
‘Could it be that the Sect Master already knew about the End of All Things from before and knew they would bring trouble in the sect?’
The dangers they had brought within the sect weren’t small, after all.
As for the Sect Master’s interest in Jiang Hao, Baizhi couldn’t understand it at all.
She always had a purpose behind her actions. In time, everything would be revealed.
At that moment, a black-robed woman appeared in front of her.
“Elder Baizhi, Mi Lingyue wants to see you. She has information connected to the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, but in return, she wishes to meet Jiang

The demon fell, and white bubbles appeared.
Jiang Hao had already killed quite a few demons. It had been about ten days since Li Bai’s death.
It was now the end of August. September was approaching, and he needed to leave.
The incarnation of the Immortal Peach Tree was near. If he missed it, he would have to wait another year.
Once the incarnation was successful, he could get a bubble when it germinated again. He might either get a blue one or a purple one.
He had to become stronger, so he didn’t want to miss any chance.
After he left Devil’s Den, Mu Qiu would target him.
Despite assurances during the gathering that the crisis had passed, he was the only one who knew that danger could strike at any time.
If more Bodies of Misfortunes appeared, it would be even more dangerous.
‘It’s not just about the Body of Misfortunes. It’s also about traces of great luck.’
Traces would disappear over time.
Jiang Hao felt that what he lacked most was time.
Whether in terms of cultivation or the crisis of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, time was essential.
However, spending two months here had not significantly increased his cultivation or vital energy.
Fortunately, he had narrowly escaped disaster. Mu Qiu was still a threat outside.
Mu Qiu was significantly more powerful, and Jiang Hao was no match for him.
He could only take things step by step and be prepared for whatever might come.
At noon, Jiang Hao took out a piece of talisman paper and decided to draw a Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman before leaving Devil’s Den.
He calmed his mind and started to draw.
In an instant, he remembered the talisman that Hong Yuye had given him. The strokes felt as clear in his mind as if they were carved there permanently.
He observed and learned.
In the afternoon, the runes burst into flames. It was a failure.
On the second day, he continued drawing talismans.
In the evening, the runes burst into flames again.
It was another failure.
On the third day, he suffered another failure.
On the fourth day, it was the same.
On the seventh day, the runes started to glow.
He finally succeeded!
Jiang Hao sat down. He felt tired and uneasy. His spiritual power had suffered more severe damage than before.
Fortunately, the Rival of Withered Tree ability was still working.
Jiang Hao noticed that the strokes and the power contained within the talisman were different from before.
[Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman: Low-Grade. Ignores all spells and barriers. Randomly teleports the user to any location within 1300 miles to 1700 miles away. Can be activated using blood or spiritual energy. Cannot be interrupted.]
‘It increased by three hundred miles.’
It was good news. However, it also meant that his Clear and Pure Heart ability might have been damaged severely.
‘I feel like I pushed myself too much. My body can’t handle it. I need to improve my cultivation to make sure I recuperate.’
Still, the fact that it was of the Inferior grade surprised him. How much more terrifying would a higher-grade Thousand Miles Teleportation Talisman be?
After that, he continued clearing out the demons.
He used only a dagger and the strength of the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Occasionally, he used the Light and Dust Technique.
He hunted the demons for three more days.
During this time, he encountered Hu Kai and the others.
He joined them once again and continued clearing out the demons.
In the following days, Hu Kai seemed to be more cooperative. He wasn’t acting recklessly anymore.
Jiang Hao understood that they had been working together for a very long time.
In mid-September, their task concluded. During this time, they obtained some spirit herbs and a stone tablet with strange inscriptions.
It was probably some kind of technique.
Jiang Hao obtained a stalk of thyme. It was cheap, but it was still a good harvest.
“I think it’s over. We should leave. What do you all think?” asked Hu Kai.
He had certainly changed. He now understood how to respect others. With that wisdom, perhaps he could live longer.
None of the others had any objections to leaving.
After some time, the group left Devil’s Den and headed to the sect.
They all breathed a sigh of relief as they walked out of the cave.
Jiang Hao remained cautious of his surroundings.
Quite some time had passed since the last incident. Mu Qiu and the others might have already taken action.
They saw many people riding on swords and flying over.
This puzzled Jiang Hao and the others.
They asked around and learned that the Bright Moon Sect’s people had arrived.
“The Bright Moon Sect’s people are here?” Jiang Hao was surprised.
Others might not be sure why the Bright Moon Sect was here, but he knew the reason.
First, for the Heavenly Extreme Calamity Bead.
It was for the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl. Mu Qiu probably wouldn’t survive the encounter.
They were here for Gu Qing as well.
“Should we go take a look?” An Jing asked.
The others nodded, and Jiang Hao followed them.
The five rode their swords and headed toward the sect.
He noticed that almost all the leaders of the twelve branches were present and were led by Elder Baizhi.
They floated in the sky and waited for the arrival of the Bright Moon Sect.
This was the first time Jiang Hao had witnessed such a grand reception prepared by the Heavenly Note Sect.
Other than the Sect Master, all the important people were present.
The Bright Moon Sect was indeed different from the rest.
Even though Heavenly Note Sect had been under attack, they dared not appear arrogant in front of such a big sect.
‘The sect must be truly remarkable.’ Jiang Hao couldn’t help but marvel. At this moment, the sky started to brighten, and two figures approached from a distance.
The individuals looked refined and elegant. They wore white and radiated a dignified aura.
They were illuminated by the brilliance of the sun and the moon and were accompanied by the vastness of the stars.
Baizhi stood high in the sky and observed the two figures, especially the one in the lead.
However, the latter’s aura quickly dissipated.
Xu Bai’s aura was extraordinary, but he did not seem to have any cultivation aura.
He approached Baizhi and bowed respectfully. “I’m Xu Bai. I’m here with my
Junior Brother Fang. We apologize for the intrusion..”
