The elderly man did not wish to call him Senior Brother either, yet for some reason, everyone loved visiting Jiang Hao.

One visitor was more courteous than another.

How could he dare to be discourteous?

Besides, none of the visitors were ordinary.

Since when did the tenth top disciple have such capabilities?

But now, even those who seemed stronger than himself addressed him as Senior Brother; calling him that seemed both reasonable and appropriate.

“May I visit Senior Brother Jiang today?” Chu Jie asked.

“I'm not sure about that; let me escort the two fairy guards there.” The elderly man replied.

“Thank you so much, senior predecessor,” Chu Jie expressed gratefully.

After the elderly man had brought them to the Cliff of Broken Hearts and helped announce their arrival, he prepared to leave.

Chu Jie sincerely asked the elderly man, “You won't be leaving the sect soon, will you?”

“No, why?” the elderly man inquired.

“I see that your cultivation has been stagnant. You just lack a bit of opportunity which may arise soon.”

“It would be a pity to leave now,” Chu Jie earnestly said.

Upon hearing this, the old man was overjoyed.

Eventually, he bid farewell and left.

Yan Yuezhi looked at the Spirit Herb Garden in surprise.

It appeared very ordinary.

And they were doing ordinary things.

Why would the tenth top disciple be here?

“Dear fairy guards, please wait a moment. The Senior Brother will soon come out,” Cheng Chou said respectfully.

As the recent visitors to see the Senior Brother were all formidable, he naturally maintained respect.

Even if they were not, courteousness was always preferable.

Inside the Spirit Herb Garden.

Jiang Hao was stunned when he heard the report.

Chu Jie wanted to see him.

And Yan Yuezhi as well.

Why did these people all want to see him?

Had he become that conspicuous?

“Yan Yuezhi must be here because of Jing, and Chu Jie because of Chu Chuan?” Jiang Hao speculated, feeling somewhat relieved.

If he had suppressed Chu Chuan or committed some evil against him.

Would Chu Jie be here to take actions against him?

But he had done good.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Hao calmed his mind and walked outside.

Sure enough, he saw the two fairy guards at the entrance.

One wore a pristine white long dress, which fluttered in the wind, light as clouds.

Standing there, she was like the bright moon above, her radiance breathtaking.

The other was tall and straight, graceful as clouds, dignified and elegant.

A light green gossamer fabric draped over her like water, making her face as bright as the moon even more exquisite and extraordinary.

The former was Chu Jie, and the latter was Yan Yuezhi.

Jiang Hao had seen them both before.

“I have met you both, esteemed predecessors,” Jiang Hao could only pretend that he had never met them before.

But the human innate talent is indeed wonderful.

Back then, Chu Jie was just a commoner, while he had been in the late stage of the Golden Core Realm.

So many years later, he was in the late Return to Void Realm, while Chu Jie had reached the Immortal Ascension Realm.

More than a hundred years had passed.

Chu Jie must have been eighteen years old during the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.

In just a short hundred years, she had ascended.

This was currently the fastest in the world.

This speed could only be achieved by Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment combined with great fortune and the arrival of a great era.

“Senior Brother Jiang, you are being too courteous,” Chu Jie promptly responded.

“Do the two esteemed predecessors have matters to address with me?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Senior Brother Jiang, just call me Chu Jie,” Chu Jie spoke, pausing briefly before continuing, “I am here to inquire about my young master's situation.”

“Young master?” Jiang Hao was puzzled.

“Chu Chuan,” Chu Jie explained.

“Junior Brother Chu?” Jiang Hao nodded, “Junior Brother Chu left the mountain early on, and occasionally sends back some letters, all reporting that he is safe.”

“Why would the young master leave the sect?” Chu Jie curiously asked.

Jiang Hao looked at her earnestly and said:

“To carve his own path, to compete with all living beings.

“To have strides as wide as millions of miles, to gaze upon prefectures and encompass all four regions.

“For this journey alone, to attempt what others dare not even dream of.”

Hearing Jiang Hao's words, not just Chu Jie, but even Yan Yuezhi was stunned.

Such a vast ambition was somewhat unexpected.

“The young master has grand goals,” Chu Jie was somewhat delighted, yet also a bit disappointed.

Jiang Hao saw it in his eyes and began,

“Of course, he has another goal.”

“What goal?” Chu Jie asked.

“To head to the eastern region.” Jiang Hao did not elaborate.

Chu Jie paused for a moment, then ceased to ask further questions.

Yan Yuezhi intended to ask something when suddenly a noisy uproar came from outside, “Stop showing me those verses, believe it or not, I'll throw you into the river.”

“Brother Wan, I think it's good, take a look,” Senior Brother, smiling, said.

“Get lost, I'm going to find Fellow Disciple Jiang, I believe he would definitely…” Wan Xiu's voice was heard.

In just a breath's time, the two had arrived at Jiang Hao's side.

But before they could speak, they saw Chu Jie.

Senior Brother looked slightly surprised, “Impressive, you even evaded their detection.”

“I've seen Master,” Chu Jie said with a smile as she greeted, “Just some small tricks.”

Afterward, she also greeted Wan Xiu.

Yan Yuezhi naturally did not dare to neglect.

“From the Western Astronomical Academy?” Senior Brother asked.

“Western Astronomical Academy's Yan Yuezhi, have seen both seniors,” Yan Yuezhi respectfully greeted.

“Oh, it's you,” Senior Brother suddenly realized.

For a moment, he was somewhat vigilant.

Yan Yuezhi: “…”

“Let's not worry about that now, Fellow Disciple Jiang, I believe you can write poetry, state your conditions, under what terms would you write one?” Wan Xiu started.

Jiang Hao found the person before him extremely troubling.

It was like this initially, and it is still the same now.

“Junior…”

Jiang Hao had barely started speaking when Wan Xiu directly took out one hundred thousand spirit stones, “One hundred thousand spirit stones per poem.”

“Junior, really…”

Jiang Hao wanted to speak again when Wan Xiu presented more spirit stones, “One million.”

Jiang Hao was stunned for a moment, then said, “At most five poems.”

He was just a Return to Void Realm cultivator.

Writing poems for spirit stones wasn't something shameful, was it?

Jiang Hao thought to himself.

Upon hearing his words, Wan Xiu, with a delighted face, said,

“Please, Fellow Disciple Jiang.”

As he spoke, he took out five storage bags.

One million spirit stones each.

“Junior is of limited talent and learning, if seniors are not satisfied…” Jiang Hao looked somewhat anxiously towards the man before him.

“As long as they are better than the previous ones,” Wan Xiu said.

Hearing this, Jiang Hao felt much more at ease.

Then he began, “To send a mayfly into the universe, a mere speck in the vast sea.”

As he picked up a storage bag, he continued, “A coarse sackcloth wraps my life, my belly full of poetry and books, exuding an aura of elegance.”

Then he picked up another, “Talk not of all turning to emptiness; before turning, all is dream.”

Another bag, “Life is like a journey against the flow; I too am a traveler.”

Before he could pick up the last one, Wan Xiu held his hand, “Your verses are incomplete, and is there nothing about wine?”

Jiang Hao paused, then picked up the last storage bag, “When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to the blue sky. Not knowing the palace in heaven, what year is it tonight… If only people could stay long-lived, separated by thousands of miles, yet sharing the beauty of the moon.”

After finishing the verses, Jiang Hao softly began, “How does Senior find them?”

“Don't call me senior, perhaps I should call you that,” Senior Brother remarked as he sipped some wine, “I've been drinking for so many years and yet couldn't write something like this.”

Jiang Hao expressed understanding; he indeed also wouldn't manage formations.

Everyone was a True Immortal.

Things meant not to be known, still remained unknown.

There was resonance.

Still, he took the spirit stones for himself.

“Really impressive, it appears the verses you gave to the sect were just to fool the spirits,” Wan Xiu remarked, “I wish I were half as good as you.”

Jiang Hao: “….”

For a moment, he thought of the small girl's talent for formation, wishing he had half of her innate talents.

Not daring to linger, Jiang Hao hastily left.

Upon reaching the courtyard,

The Heavenly Note Sect also appeared here.

Upon her arrival, she started, “You've written poetry for them again?”

“Hard to decline such enthusiasm,” Jiang Hao sighed.

“Earned quite a bit, right?” the Heavenly Note Sect asked with a semblance of a smile.

“A total of one million spirit stones, and again able to buy some Dew of the First Sun for the senior,” Jiang Hao replied earnestly.

“Hehe,” the Heavenly Note Sect could not help laughing,

“Seems like quite a tough job, earning so many spirit stones all to buy tea leaves.”

“It's all this junior should do, even if it's just one million spirit stones, this junior must buy one and a half million worth of tea leaves for the senior,” Jiang Hao said seriously.

“Come here, come closer,” the Heavenly Note Sect smiled and said.

Jiang Hao somewhat awkwardly replied, “What does Senior intend to do?”

“I think you may have misread the spirit stones in the storage bag; shall we check again?” the Heavenly Note Sect asked with a smile.
