Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1626



Chapter 1626: Chapter 1367 Saint Bandits: What is your relationship? Chapter 1626: Chapter 1367 Saint Bandits: What is your relationship? Great strength surged within the high skies.

Dao intents converged from all directions, shaking heaven and earth with their power.

Mountains crumbled, space distorted.

Powerful beings were waging a life and death battle.

Indistinguishable, inextricable.

For a time, it was even harder to discern a victor.

Yet above the Heavenly Note Sect, the path to immortality opened, its seven-colored radiance illuminating the world.

Those unaware could only assume someone was battling for a person of great fortune to ascend.

The old smoke man at the Immortal Gazing Platform thought just so.

He held no thoughts of drawing closer to the unique and outstanding person's ascension.

He was content to watch from a distance.

At first, he felt the combatants were being somewhat petty.

Later, when they suddenly stopped, he didn't know why.

But soon he felt something was amiss.

“Why are they fighting so fiercely?”

The old smoke man was astonished.

Taking a drag on his pipe, he voiced his confusion:

“It wasn't like this just now, and why fight so fiercely?

“If you want to stop the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment from succeeding in ascension, hurry up and intervene.

“If you don't stop them now, won't they succeed?

“Oh my, why are they fighting further and further away?

“Is this because they are being forced away by the Bright Moon Sect?

“Afraid that their great power will affect the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment?

The more he watched, the stranger the old smoke man found it.

But he was also enjoying the spectacle; it was, after all, quite interesting.

“Such force, the impact is enormous, are they intending to knock their brains out?

“For just great fortune, what's the use in obtaining a bit, let alone all of it? It doesn't necessarily mean one can progress any further.

“Why resort to such an intense struggle?

“It's as if they're contending for the Tao itself.”

Shaking his head, the old smoke man felt he was growing old, unlike these young ones.

He had no such ambitions.

Still, he made a note of what he saw today. Next time someone asks, he could share a thing or two.

Let those youngsters know, he has witnessed many storms.

With these thoughts, the old smoke man took another puff of his pipe, continuing to be a spectator.

Heavenly Note Sect.

In the courtyard where Jiang Hao resided.

At that moment, the fluctuations of power outside could not interfere here.

By comparison, this was the most serene place.

Whether it was the path forged to immortality or the contention for the Tao, none of it mattered to the people inside.

Three people, two Heaven Lock enigmas.

Fortune often didn't favor them, and one had no need for such fortune anymore.

When Heavenly Note Sect arrived, Jiang Hao showed no surprise.

He simply poured tea as he felt inclined.

But the Saint Bandits, upon hearing the voice, were quite surprised.

Looking up, they paused, then stood up to offer their greetings, “I did not expect to meet the elder again.”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao was quite surprised.

Again?

Elder?

He knew Heavenly Note Sect had an extraordinary background, but he had never thought she would be such a person's elder.

On reflection, it seemed Heavenly Note Sect had emerged during the Human Emperor's era too.

Only, her stance among the many other races at that time was unknown.

Was she, like now, not overly involved with the outer world?

Heavenly Note Sect sat beside Jiang Hao, picked up a teacup, and began drinking without paying any attention to the person before her.

The Saint Bandits didn't mind and sat down as well, but looking at the two people across, they felt something was off.

These two sat closely together.

It seemed as though they were one party and the Saint Bandits were another.

“Elder, are you taking his side?” Saint Bandits suddenly asked.

Putting down her teacup, Heavenly Note Sect was silent for a moment before replying,

“Is that not allowed?”

“No.” Saint Bandits shook their head, then continued, “It's just unexpected. The elder has always had her own stance and somehow managed to stand beside someone.

“During the Human Emperor's era, the elder was like a passerby, leaving no trace behind.

“It seemed she didn't belong to that era.

“And yet now, she is indeed standing with someone, truly integrating into this era.”

Listening, Jiang Hao felt a sense of curiosity.

He had some thoughts but didn't dwell on them.

“You want to seal the Heavenly Note Sect?” Heavenly Note Sect didn't care for the other's words but asked directly.

“I do have that intention, but it requires a nod from the person beside you,” said Saint Bandits.

Upon hearing this, Heavenly Note Sect looked at Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao understood what she meant and reminded Saint Bandits,

“Elder, the person beside me is the Sect Master of the Heavenly Note Sect.

“So whether or not to seal, you have to ask her.

“I don't have that authority.”

After Jiang Hao finished speaking, Heavenly Note Sect then looked at Saint Bandits.

Upon hearing, Saint Bandits hesitated.

Then Jiang Hao added, “So, elder, saying that we need not consider the views of those in the Heavenly Note Sect, I feel that's not quite right.”

“Is it?” Heavenly Note Sect looked at Saint Bandits.

Hearing this, Saint Bandits, who had previously remained indifferent, grinned awkwardly and laughed twice, saying,

“I suppose I've indeed been presumptuous just now, a little too full of myself.

“My intention was merely to increase the likelihood of a successful trade.

“No other thoughts.”

Heavenly Note Sect chuckled, not paying any more attention to the other party, and carried on drinking her tea.

Seeing this, Saint Bandits started to understand her intentions.

It seemed she would concern herself with this issue, but not with others.

Asking the person beside her would suffice.

What was going on? Saint Bandits inwardly marveled.

This wasn't like her at all.

But time can change a person.

Though the Saint Bandits didn't know why, their purpose in coming here was the most crucial thing.

Since she didn't want to be involved, all the better.

“If the Heavenly Note Sect won't work, then we can certainly pick another location.” Saint Bandits looked at Jiang Hao and smiled, saying,

“Where would you like to go? As long as it's not too far from here, it can be done.”

Hearing their words, Jiang Hao felt somewhat troubled.

To know, he was here because he needed to tend to his flowers.

With the backing of Heavenly Note Sect, he could be much safer.

Certainly, with a seal in place, it would be safe as well.

But…

Jiang Hao looked to the person beside him, hesitating for a long time, then shook his head at Saint Bandits, saying,

“I cannot leave the Heavenly Note Sect.”

“That is indeed quite troublesome,” Saint Bandits expressed some regret:

“This place is the elder's Taoist abode, sealing it would be unsuitable.”
