Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

1427  Shang An Still Wants To Find The Charm Goddess

Disciple Shang An was a person who had left a lasting impression on Jiang Hao, ever since the Charm Goddess had ordered him to kill Jiang Hao, but he had refused and said that he was a good person.

Although he loved the Charm Goddess enough to give his own life for her, he still retained his ability to distinguish between doing the right thing.

He was different from the others.

But...

Jiang Hao still felt that the Charm Goddess was not a good match for him.

Perhaps in the short term, it seemed fine, but over time, things would change.

In the future, the Charm Goddess would seek out many other men.

That was her nature as a Charm Goddess, and she could never change.

She loved everyone genuinely.

If he was in Shang An's position, he would not be able to tolerate such a person.

Of course, he had never felt the darkness of Shang An's past, nor had he ever understood the light brought on by the Charm Goddess in his life.

Therefore, he would never be able to understand Shang An completely.

When he was young, he felt that the Charm Goddess was not worthy of Shang An. He had grown old, but he still felt the same way.

It was just that he was more vocal about such things when he was younger, but he remained mostly silent in the present.

Shang An was not a child. He was an adult man with his own opinions and choices.

He was a person who would bear all the consequences of his decisions.

He was more serious than anyone else and understood more than anyone else. He never wanted to burden others with his choices.

Shang An's new Master also let Shang An do what he wanted for this reason.

With the arrival of the Great Era, the Sage had already matured and was about to become a True Immortal.

He could fully stand on his own.

"Is it so difficult for Disciple Shang An to see his Master? I remember he became an immortal very early, with the support of the Great Era. His cultivation shouldn't be weak," Gui said.

She felt like she was one of the most miserable people in the world that day.

"Disciple Shang An has his own beliefs. He probably wants to do something. His current Master supports him, and now, he wants the Master, who raised him, to support him too. So, he can complete what he wants to do with peace of mind," Xing said.

Everyone nodded. It was indeed possible.

However, they did not know what Disciple Shang An intended to do.

Jiang Hao had some thoughts.

But he did not speak.

What Shang An wanted to do was inescapably related to the Charm Goddess.

Apart from Disciple Shang An, Zhang also said that some people from the Heavenly Spirit Tribe had traveled to the West.

Their actions were quite strange.

"Who did the Heavenly Spirit Tribe send?" Liu asked curiously.

"According to the information, one of them should be called Situ Jingjing. This person is a little showy. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy to find her," Zhang said.

She had only casually mentioned this matter to Lou Mantian, and thus, she had obtained some information.

'Situ Jingjing?' Jiang Hao was surprised.

Situ Jingjing of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe.

Was she not the person that the member of The End of All Things had mentioned to him?

It seemed she headed to the West on behalf of the Heavenly Spirit Tribe.

If he had time, he could go and take a look, provided he finished his own business first.

At present, he had to put many things aside and do his best to attract the attention of the Fallen Immortal Clan so that he could live in peace.

"Situ Jingjing?" Liu smiled. "This person used to be quite famous. However, she went silent for a while. I think her cultivation has also improved. But I heard that her physique is not perfect enough. There's a high chance that she needs poison to perfect it. She might go to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect in the West."

"Then, Zhang, can you help me find out who the Heavenly Spirit Tribe sent to the East? I have something to ask them," said Xing with a smile.

"Okay," said Zhang and nodded. "If I encounter them, I'll ask for you."

"Zhang, what do you need in return?" Xing asked.

"I need books," Zhang said.

Xing nodded.

Then, Liu talked about the overseas. At this time, the deep-sea demons were appearing overseas and fighting for territory.

He even mentioned the Shangguan Clan.

The previously high-spirited Shangguan Clan had lost its voice. All the forces they had sent out were disappearing.

It was said that they were back to dealing with their previous calamity.

"Other than that, someone spotted King Hai Luo. It's said he's headed to the South," said Liu.

Jiang Hao was surprised. After so many years, there was news of King Hai Luo. It felt strange.

Gui talked about the South. "The south is also not peaceful lately. It is said that there is an immortal expert living in seclusion. However, his position is very strange. It seems that he is not siding with the Fallen Immortal Clan."

Jiang Hao had a plan in his mind. Gui's Three Heavens Beyond the Heaven might have been mentioned by this expert first.

It was said that a mystic realm had exploded outside. It was extremely ancient and had traces of the Human Emperor. But it was only the exterior. Inside, there were even more ancient things.

As they talked, Jiang Hao got a rough understanding of the various regions.

He did not speak, as he had nothing to say.

He had already conveyed what he needed to, and there was nothing more.

Compared to their sources of information, he was far behind.

Jiang Hao heard the news of Chi Tian. After the rise of Heavenly King Taomu, he received a lot of assistance. His cultivation realm had soared, and he ruled a region with the blessing of the Heavenly King.

Jiang Hao did not expect a Golden Core Realm cultivator who had been in such a bad state in the past to have developed into such a powerful existence who could not be underestimated in his prowess.

The future was truly unpredictable.

He could not help but sigh at this.

They talked for a long time, and Jiang Hao listened.

Then, the gathering came to an end with Senior Dan Yuan's reminder.

Jiang Hao opened his eyes on the hillside and looked at the River of Deathly Silence in front of him.

He had already made up his mind before. After this gathering, he received a reward from Senior Dan Yuan, which was lucky for him.

Challenging the Master of the East Heavenly Pole would also turn out to be beneficial.

If he issued a challenge, the Master of the East Heavenly Pole would naturally appear.

Therefore, the mission was considered completed.

"There's no time like the present."

Jiang Hao was still planning when to issue the challenge.

There was no need to wait anymore.

Before the Fallen Immortal Clan paid too much attention to Jiang Hao of the Heavenly Note Sect, he had to use the identity of Smiling San Sheng to distract them.

Jiang Hao stood up slowly.

He looked at the night sky and closed his eyes.

He calmed himself and adjusted his condition.

Once the challenge was issued, it was just a matter of waiting for the main day.

When exactly was uncertain, but it would not take more than a year.

To drag it longer would not do. Too many people were watching him. It would be dangerous.

After calming down, an ordinary blade appeared in Jiang Hao's hand.

He walked forward step by step and slowly approached the River of Deathly Silence.

For many, approaching it was terrifying, but it had no effect on Jiang Hao.

Even when he reached the river's edge, he did not stop.

Just like that, he stepped into the river and walked forward, step by step.

If Nie Jin and the others saw this, they would definitely be shocked.

This was no ordinary river that people could simply walk into.

However, it did not affect Jiang Hao at all.

At that moment, Jiang Hao's steps were steady, and his body began to change.

In an instant, he turned into Smiling San Sheng.

He stood in the middle of the river.

He looked at the blade in his hand and clenched his fists. He then activated the Heavenly Blade Techniques.

He gently impaled the knife downward.

The moment the blade touched the surface of the water, it triggered the river.

Rumble!

In the blink of an eye, the river surged alarmingly.

People were shocked. A beam of light shot up into the sky.

The fierce battle intent pierced through the clouds and the deathly aura and suppressed the raging river.

Immediately after, an icy voice reverberated in all directions.

"Rumor has it that the Master of the East Heavenly Pole is the King of Blades. I refuse to stay silent and want to claim that title for myself. I hope you are sensible and will willingly lose to my blade. I'm not an unreasonable man. I'll leave right after I win."

Smiling San Sheng's laughter spread throughout the Heavenly Note Sect.

His voice exploded in all directions in the night.

The blade's intent shone like stars and illuminated the world.
