Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 486  Poisoning The Demoness

"Senior, it seems like someone is here," Jiang Hao said.

"Isn't that the dragon?" Hong Yuye glanced at Jiang Hao.

This made him somewhat worried. Xiao Li didn't know her place. She was just a young dragon. If she said something to offend Hong Yuye, the consequences would be dire.

"Beast?" Xiao Li arrived at the door and looked inside, but she didn't see the spirit beast anywhere.

Jiang Hao let her come and go as she pleased, so when she didn't see the spirit beast, she walked in.

"Beast?" Xiao Li made her way to the hall.

But soon, she saw Jiang Hao standing in the living room, and Hong Yuye sitting and drinking tea.

"Senior Brother, Senior Sister, you're here too?" Xiao Li looked surprised.

She didn't fear Hong Yuye, but she recognized her.

Jiang Hao was surprised. He had watched Hong Yuye carefully. When Xiao Li called her Senior Sister, she didn't look displeased.

"How did you come here?" Hong Yuye asked softly.

Xiao Li ran to Hong Yuye's side and took out a box of pastries tainted with the marsh gas. "Here. This is for you, Senior Sister."

Jiang Hao frowned. 'Pastries with poison for Hong Yuye?'

He broke into a cold sweat. He was worried about Xiao Li's life.

"The cafeteria is about to serve a meal," Jiang Hao said calmly.

Only then did Xiao Li remember why she had come here. "I'll go find the beast first."

After saying that, she ran out without looking back.

Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

"You're very worried about her safety." Hong Yuye picked up a piece of pastry.

"Xiao Li is still a child and speaks without thinking. I'm worried she might unknowingly offend you, Senior," Jiang Hao said with his head down.

"You're always cautious, aren't you?" Hong Yuye took a bite of the pastry.

Jiang Hao kept his head down and didn't speak.

Since he came to the Heavenly Note Sect, he had always been cautious.

He didn't want to provoke anyone powerful. That was the only way he could stay alive and grow.

He entered the sect at the age of five and was now thirty-one years old.

Twenty-six years had passed.

"What cultivation realm are you in now?" Hong Yuye asked.

"Early stage of the Golden Core Realm."

"Golden Core Realm is considered powerful among your peers, but you still seem so cautious." Hong Yuye picked up a second piece of pastry.

Among his peers, he had already surpassed many people.

"Compared to some Primordial Spirit Ream and Soul Ascension Realm seniors, I'm still very weak."

"So, when will it end?" Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao lowered his head. Perhaps when most of the people were no match for him.

Or perhaps after he surpassed the person in front of him.

Every day, he worked hard to become stronger.

He could see hope. The future was promising.

So, he would wait and try to keep a stable state of mind. Only then could he avoid dangers.

"I just want to live peacefully for now," Jiang Hao said.

Hong Yuye looked at him and remained silent for a long time. "Tell me about the gathering. What information did you gather?"

"This time I have some news." Jiang Hao handed over the notebook.

He talked about the Heavenly Spirit Tribe and the overseas seabed, but Hong Yuye wasn't interested in that.

She also didn't care about Gui's friend.

However, "Jiang Hao Tian" becoming a senior at the Astronomical Academy piqued her interest.

Jiang Hao sat across from her. "This seems suspicious. They probably want to improve their Light and Dust technique, since they've been ridiculed for it for too long."

"Now you can not only go to the Bright Moon Sect but also to the Astronomical Academy," Hong Yuye said with a smile.

"I'd rather stay here and guard your flower, Senior" Jiang Hao said helplessly.

In fact, the bright Moon Sect might have been an option before, but after the discovery of the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, it was no longer feasible for him.

He would be exposed to Xing.

As for the Astronomical Academy, they were interested in "Jiang Hao Tian."

Jiang Hao Tian was the person bestowed with vast power by Hong Yuye. He was someone whom countless strong individuals couldn't probe into.

Jiang Hao wasn't exactly that person.

So, the Astronomical Academy was not where he belonged.

Hong Yuye chuckled. "It seems like there's quite a bit of information about this Heavenly King."

The Heavenly King Hai Luo was a person infatuated with someone at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

He had established his footing in the Lawless Tower, but it seemed that he had been betrayed by someone dear to him.

"Perhaps that woman did it on purpose to save him," said Jiang Hao.

"Do you believe that?" Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao lowered his head. In the cultivation world, most people were selfish.

He liked to think the worst of people because that way he could sense danger in advance. That was how he avoided crises.

That was why he didn't have real friends.

Even the people he vaguely knew before had started avoiding him after the trouble with the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.

They were all afraid of getting into trouble because of him. That was to be expected.

He also made an effort to maintain his solitude, so he wouldn't burden others when he faced dangers.

At the same time, he wouldn't be burdened by others.

"Besides all this, did you gain anything else?" Hong Yuye handed the notebook back to Jiang Hao.

"Actually, there is something else." Jiang Hao talked about Dan Qingzi. "I learned about Feng Hua from a senior at Azure Mountain. This person seems to have set his eyes on the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and belongs to the undercover Elders of the Great Thousand God Sect. He seeks people to cooperate with him in various trades. If the transaction is successful, he recruits those who trade with him and gives them the status of an Honorary Elder. Perhaps finding him will give us a lead regarding the stone tablets, and maybe, we can even find out who assigned the mission to the Great Thousand God Sect."

The person was also from The End of All Things, but Jiang Hao had searched everywhere but hadn't found out who exactly he was.

It was the reason why he had sent Chi Tian as an undercover agent.

A year had passed. He needed to find a way to pass a message to Chi Tian.

For that, he needed Liu to owe him a favor.

...

In the Milky Way Sea area in the overseas territory, various people gathered in the streets, which were bustling with activity.

At this moment, Chi Tian was on the first floor of a large treasure shop.

He looked at the spirit stones he had collected over the past few days and felt quite sentimental.

He had never encountered so many spirit stones in his entire life.

If the spirit stones were sufficient, he had a hope of defeating and killing his enemy-.

"Senior Blood, there's a Golden Core Realm customer who needs your attention," said a woman as she walked into the shop.

"Alright." Chi Tian nodded.

He had changed his appearance and identity for several months now. He had left the eastern region for more than a year now.

That person had never appeared, and he probably never would.

He had entered The End of All Things and changed his appearance, so even if someone was watching him, they wouldn't recognize him at all.

Now, he was free. He was no longer constrained by that person.

Chi Tian smiled. Sometimes he felt that person had been too confident.

He thought that the person had acted mysteriously to make Chi Tian believe that he was powerful.

But if he was powerful, why would he use a Golden Core Realm cultivator like him?

He was sure that Jiang Hao pretended to be strong on the surface but was actually very weak.

Here, he was Xue Lu. Everything else was irrelevant to him.
