Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1582: Chapter 1344: Demoness: I Heard You’ve Been Telling Everyone I’m Dead?_2

A True Immortal over a hundred years old is indeed a rare talent.

Indeed worth a personal meeting with the Sect Master.

But the strong do not like defiance.

Once terms are not agreed upon, the problem becomes significant.

So he spent two days consolidating his cultivation, familiarizing himself with his current realm.

It was only a basic familiarity, not yet complete control.

The speed of advancement was too rapid, prone to certain flaws.

A sigh escaped his lips as Jiang Hao looked to the sky, “There’s only half a month left, I can only use it to familiarize myself with my current realm.”

Time passed quickly, so quickly that the process was imperceptible.

Half a month later.

The beginning of December.

Jiang Hao received an order from his master.

To go to Hundred Flowers Lake first.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Hao sighed.

It was time to face it.

Let’s go and see then.

Heavenly Immortal Perfection is not weak, whether among top-tier sects or major sects.

Perhaps it is not as dangerous as I imagined.

Shortly after.

Jiang Hao arrived at Hundred Flowers Lake.

At the entrance, he saw Elder Baizhi.

Jiang Hao offered his respects, “I’ve seen Sect Master Baizhi.”

If others address her as Sect Master, so should he.

Elder Baizhi nodded, asking, “Are you ready?”

“Yes,” Jiang Hao nodded.

Without further hesitation, Elder Baizhi said, “Let’s go then.”

Afterward, the two flew towards Hundred Flowers Lake.

On the way, Jiang Hao curiously inquired, “May I know why the Sect Master wishes to see a junior like me?”

Upon hearing this, Elder Baizhi chuckled lightly and said, “You should have guessed something, so it’s probably what you’re thinking.”

Jiang Hao felt that the person before him spoke as though he hadn’t said anything at all.

“You know what kind of strength you have, and the Sect Master should be clear about it, no matter how much you hide, you cannot obscure the luminescence that should be there,” Elder Baizhi spoke earnestly:

“So for this meeting with the Sect Master, you should prepare yourself mentally.”

Jiang Hao sighed inwardly.

Even Elder Baizhi thinks there is something amiss with me; it seems this time I can’t harbor any hope of good luck.

I must face it with all my might.

Soon after, Jiang Hao smelled the fragrance of flowers.

Then, a mountain appeared in the sky, covered with countless vibrant flowers.

Brilliant beyond compare.

Here it’s spring all year round; nothing from the outside could affect this place.

Not only that but at the sight of all this, Jiang Hao’s pupils shrank.

The path of the Great Dao was like starlight, winding and endless, with no visible end.

As if winding around infinite mountains and seas, descending with suppression.

Extremely terrifying.

At first, he thought the Sect Master might not be much different from himself.

But this Dao aura is simply incomparable to his own.

Jiang Hao lowered his head, not daring to look indiscriminately.

The moment he observed the other’s Dao, he could also be scrutinized by them.

Moments later.

Jiang Hao landed on a small path amid the flowers.

He followed closely behind Elder Baizhi.

All around were traces of the Dao, like a sea of the Great Dao, capable of drowning him at any moment.

Not just him, Elder Baizhi also felt the change.

It seemed even more solemn and reverent than before.

Not daring to make the slightest mistake.

Both of them approached slowly, with a tense mindset.

Upon reaching the pavilion, Elder Baizhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The person inside was still sitting, but she didn’t dare to look directly at them.

She could only respectfully say, “I have brought Jiang Hao.”

“Jiang Hao has seen the Sect Master,” Jiang Hao felt the boundless Dao weighing on him, preventing him from raising his head to see the person before him.

Of course, to avoid unnecessary impact, it was better not to look.

If he were to discover that the other party was grievously injured, it would be extremely troublesome.

Moreover, the traces of the Dao were too strong; if the other party was displeased, he feared there would be no return.

Seeing the Sect Master wave her hand, Elder Baizhi felt as if pardoned.

She took a few steps back and quickly left.

The atmosphere today was somewhat different.

Better to leave as soon as possible.

Jiang Hao quietly waited with his head lowered.

He had been waiting for the other party to speak.

Unfortunately, the Sect Master seemed unwilling to break the silence.

Only the sound of water could be heard.

It must be the sound of making tea.

He dared not ponder further, simply waiting in silence.

After a long time, the other party finally broke the silence with an ethereal voice, “How do you find my strength?”

“Sect Master’s Divine Might is unmatched in the world,” Jiang Hao immediately said.

Upon hearing this, the ethereal voice responded with a hint of a smile, “So, you think I am a powerful figure?”

Jiang Hao did not hesitate and spoke, “Across history and into the future, senior will always hold a place of honor.”

The terrifying extent of the Dao in question, Jiang Hao believed, was perhaps even beyond Ao Shi.

This was an invincible existence.

“Is that so?” The ethereal voice sounded quite pleased, yet emerged cold:

“Then why have you been telling everyone that I am dead?”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao was greatly alarmed, but his expression remained unchanged, “Sect Master has clear insight, I have never spoken such words.”

“Is that so?” the ethereal voice asked in return.

“Indeed.” Jiang Hao, feeling somewhat panicked, responded, “I would never say such things, and if anyone has heard them, I am ready to confront them.”

He should have only mentioned this at the Heavenly Note Sect.

It was impossible for there to be someone to confront.

The ethereal voice chuckled, “I have wronged you?”

“Perhaps someone has misled senior,” Jiang Hao replied.

“You make a lot of sense,” the ethereal voice continued with amusement:

“So, are you loyal to my Heavenly Note Sect?”

“Utterly devoted,” Jiang Hao replied.

“Utterly devoted?” the ethereal voice asked in a clipped tone:

“You have my Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, correct?”

“Yes,” Jiang Hao nodded, “I have been caring for it with all my effort, there have been no mishaps.”

Jiang Hao had not expected the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower to actually belong to the Sect Master.

Fortunately, the flower was unharmed.

However, he soon became nervous again.

Because the ethereal voice came once more:

“But I have heard that you gave it away?”

“What?”

“That’s your flower?”

“Nonsense, that’s deception. The flower has always been the Sect Master’s, and has been in my courtyard.”

“If Sect Master is not at ease, you can certainly transplant the flower over,” Jiang Hao replied agitatedly.

The ethereal voice laughed, “So according to you, both the fact that I’m supposedly dead and that my flower was given away by you are just rumors?”

“Sect Master sees clearly, indeed they are rumors,” Jiang Hao asserted earnestly.

“What if I have evidence?” the ethereal voice transmitted.

“I am willing to accept any punishment,” Jiang Hao stated righteously.

There could not possibly be any evidence.

In this, he was absolutely certain.

“You are quite confident, why is that?” the ethereal voice inquired.

Jiang Hao answered, “If I have not done something, naturally I am confident about it.”

“I see.”

“Yes.”

A chuckle was heard, and then the ethereal voice came again, “Then let me show you the evidence.”

Before Jiang Hao could react, the ethereal voice transmitted again, “Come, raise your head, open your eyes, look at me.”

The moment the other party’s words fell, Jiang Hao felt the pressure on him vanish instantly.

The fragrance of flowers entered his nostrils, as if the hand pressing down on him had released its grip.

He was somewhat astonished, yet did not disobey the Sect Master.

He was also curious as to who exactly the Sect Master of Heavenly Note Sect, Tianyin Hong, was.

The one known as the demoness of Heavenly Note Sect, what did she truly look like?

The moment he lifted his head, Jiang Hao saw a red-and-white figure, which slightly surprised him.

Then his gaze fell upon her face.

He was instantly struck dumb.

The person before him had hands gentle as jade shoots, skin smooth as creamy jade, a graceful neck as a young cicada, teeth white as gourd seeds, and finely shaped eyebrows.

But these were not the main points.

What really made Jiang Hao stand still was that he recognized her face.

He opened his mouth but could not speak a word.

Heavenly Note Sect looked at Jiang Hao with a smile and spoke in her own voice, “Did you or did you not say that I was dead?”

For a moment, Jiang Hao was at a loss for words.

Heavenly Note Sect continued, “And, did you or did you not give away my Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower?”

Jiang Hao instinctively wanted to explain something, but in the end, he could not make a sound.

He was somewhat bewildered.

The person before him kept referring to ‘your sect.’

Telling him to leave Heavenly Note Sect.

Saying she would take her flower with her.

He had never dared to associate her with the Sect Master.

Because it was impossible.

Now…

It indeed caught him off guard.

Only then did the surrounding scent fully reach him, it truly was her scent.

Not just that, the red and white dress of Heavenly Note Sect was plentiful.

And this one he recognized.

It was the dress he initially gave her.

So, if the person before him truly was the Sect Master,

Then she must also be the one he knew well, Heavenly Note Sect.
