Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mr. Tao and his two companions walked inside.
On the way, they saw many storefronts.
It felt different here compared to overseas. This place was full of ordinary non-cultivators.
Everything felt lively.
“It’s hard to imagine that near the Astronomical Academy, there’s still a place like this…” Mr. Zhu sighed.
“I feel like the things over there are pretty delicious. Should we try them?” Tang Ya asked.
“Let’s go buy some. I’m sure they’re good.” Mr. Tao smiled.
“Auntie Qiao, should we eat something delicious? I’ve been eating noodles for months, and there are pancakes over there. Let’s go try them,” said Bi Zhu.
“Alright. I’ll buy it for you,” said Qiao Yi.
“No. Letgo. I’ll pick something delicious,” Bi Zhu said with a smile.
They went to the pancake stall right when Tang Ya did so.
In front of the stall, Bi Zhu looked at Tang Ya and said with a smile, “Senior, you don’t seem to be from around here.”
Bi Zhu displayed an early-stage Golden Core Realm, while Tang Ya was in the late stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm.
“Yeah, I’m from out of town.” Tang Ya nodded. “I feel like you are a bit… dangerous. Are you hiding your cultivation realm?”
“Why would you say that?” Bi Zhu asked in shock.
“Because many people like to hide their cultivation realm here and beat around the bush. They often speak in riddles. Do you like riddles?” Tang Ya asked.
“I am very straightforward. I never speak in riddles.” Bi Zhu smiled.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I don’t like that either. They always say I’m too straightforward, and I’ll suffer because of it sooner or later,” Tang Ya said.
“Just because you don’t like riddles doesn’t mean you aren’t smart. It has nothing to do with whether you suffer,” said Bi Zhu.
Tang Ya looked surprised. “Exactly! They just don’t understand.” The two of them talked for a long while.
After buying the pancakes, they reluctantly parted ways.
Bi Zhu walked away with Qiao Yi.
“Do you intend to use her for something, Princess?” asked Qiao Yi.
“No. I just met her and felt a connection with her. So, I was talking with her. She’s interesting,” said Bi Zhu. She ate the pancake.
Without thinking much, she went straight outside to find the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.
Meanwhile, Tang Ya met up with the others. “I just met a very powerful person, and we had a great chat. She also hates it when people speak in riddles and don’t give a straight answer. I told her I’m like that too.”
Mr. Zhu nodded.
Mr. Tao smiled. “It’s not easy to find someone you can talk to. Who is she?”
“I don’t know. After talking for a while, we each went our separate ways,” Tang Ya said.
Mr. Tao nodded. He didn’t say much and led the people inside.
Jiang Hao invited the swordsman for a drink.
After that, the swordsman led him deeper into the ancient city.
Although they proceeded deeper, the number of people didn’t decrease. They increased instead.
“This is where the sages lived. That’s why there are so many people. Everyone wants to chere and pay their respects. The place is special. I heard from sfriends that they haven’t faced any hardships since they chere. So, they chere every month and burn incense and offerings. Those who stay behind and start a business here are even more respected.”
Jiang Hao nodded. This place was the former site of the Astronomical Academy. There must be spowerful force at play here that ordinary people couldn’t understand.
A blessing left by an immortal sect was more than enough to shelter these people.
“So, that traitor… people hate him. No one bothers to clean that place where his stone tablet is,” said the middle-aged swordsman.
Jiang Hao could understand, but he was curious about the traitor. “What’s his name?”
“I don’t know.” The middle-aged swordsman shook his head. “It seems like no one here knows his name. Even if they knew it, they wouldn’t speak of him. The people want others to know he was a traitor, but they don’t want others to remember him or his name.”
“Why?” Jiang Hao was surprised.
“Because they want him to disappear from history. If his nis passed down, wouldn’t it be easy for the traitor to be remembered?” The middle-aged swordsman laughed. “Anyway, that’s what I heard.”
For a while, Jiang Hao didn’t know if it was right to do that or not.
He nodded to show that he was paying attention.
After a short time, the three of them arrived in an alley close to the statue of the sage.
“This is it.” The middle-aged swordsman sighed. “The affinity with immortals is hard to find. What do you think it feels like for an immortal to stand this high? In this lifetime, if I can at least fly, I won’t have lived my life in vain.”
“If you do that, do you think your ambitions will also be higher?” Jiang Hao asked.
He saw that the place was mentioned pretty nicely. He wasn’t sure how it would be inside.
“Yes,” said the middle-aged swordsman firmly. “I am a greedy person. How about you?”
“My ambitions?” Jiang Hao thought for a moment. “I just want to live a peaceful life.”
Hong Yuye glanced at Jiang Hao but didn’t say anything.
“Is your life not peaceful right now?” asked the middle-aged swordsman.
Jiang Hao sighed wearily. “I can’t help it. Everything happens out of my control.”
In this world, many people had it worse than him. He couldn’t even help them.
Although he had no worries about food and a roof over his head, he still lived in constant danger.
He always had to struggle.
“Hmm… Why is it so clean here?” The middle-aged man was a bit surprised.
He found that this place had been cleaned recently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Maybe someone was here.” Jiang Hao frowned.
He did feel that there were people inside.
“But who would suddenly cto clean a place that is dedicated to a traitor?” said the middle-aged man in confusion.
“Let’s go in and find out,” Jiang Hao said calmly.
They walked inside. The place was indeed clean moments before. Jiang Hao had a bad feeling about it.
Someone had seized the chance to clean it, and with that, the reward of bubbles.
They saw a young woman standing in front of the stone tomb and wiping away at the stone tablet. She was halfway done.
This stone monument radiated a majestic aura.
The dirt on it was thick. There would surely be many rewards for cleaning it.
Jiang Hao had missed his chance. He felt uneasy.
There were two men with the woman. It was Mr. Tao and his companions. Jiang Hao had seen them before.
“Are you also here to try your luck?” asked Mr. Tao as he looked at the new people who had arrived.
Although this place was the traitor’s location, people would always try their luck here if there was something to be gained.
They would silently and secretly try to get the gains. If not, they would pretend to scorn the traitor.
There’s nothing to lose either way.
“Cleaning it this… You might have to face schallenges from others,” said the middle-aged man.
“Well… You never know unless you try. Do you want to give it a try?” Mr. Tao asked politely.
Jiang Hao was eager to try, but Hong Yuye moved to his side.
Jiang Hao was worried about the white bubbles. If he only obtained white bubbles, others would naturally detect it.
His heart sank.
In the past, he would have gone for it one way or another.
He decided to let it go.
‘Forget it…’ He sighed..
