Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1632: Chapter 1369 Jiang Hao: Let me go, and I will let you go too_2 Chapter 1632: Chapter 1369 Jiang Hao: Let me go, and I will let you go too_2 And you are the first one.

“We do not know your abilities, but they are certainly not ordinary.”

“Is it possible that it was just a coincidence?” Jiang Hao inquired.

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Qingwu chuckled and said, “That means you possess great fortune; such happenstance coming your way, one could even say you're the greatest person of fortune in history.”

Jiang Hao was slightly surprised. Could it really be explained that way?

“By the way, how did the Immortal Clan manage to fade into obscurity during the Human Emperor's era?” Jiang Hao asked curiously.

It was worth asking since such encounters with mighty ones from the Immortal Clan were rare.

All three showed signs of anger at the question.

“Who else but the Human Emperor?” Ouyang Hui replied.

“Do you resent the Human Emperor?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Us minor characters, resent the Human Emperor?” Ouyang Qingwu said earnestly,

“The Human Emperor was peerless; after awakening from suspension in time, I still vividly remember the Human Emperor's figure.

Perhaps the Immortal Clan, generations later, has forgotten the Human Emperor's power.

But I remember.

It's normal for the Immortal Clan to resent the Human Emperor,

for he thwarted our plans.

But if you're asking who harbors that resentment, it cannot be me.

I grew up in that era, well aware of the importance of the Human Emperor then.

I also understand that our peace and comfort were all thanks to the Human Emperor.

Yet, from a different standpoint, I would still consider him an enemy.

I will do what must be done, and I will kill those who must be killed.”

“The Immortal Clan doesn't kill the innocent, do they?” Jiang Hao asked curiously, pausing before he added, “I mean indiscriminate killing of people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.”

“What difference does it make to kill or not to kill? Since there is no difference, why bother killing?

To please oneself?

It's mere impotent rage,” Ouyang Qingwu replied.

“But I will kill. The people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion are despicable and ignorant, their sheer numbers alone provide ample evidence of their inferiority,” Ouyang Hui stated coldly. “Divine items are few and far between, as are powerful species.

But people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion are everywhere, no different from weeds and livestock.”

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Hao nodded and said, “You have a point there. Do you know why the Human Emperor chose to suppress you all?”

“Because of the emergence of Nine Nether,” Ouyang Qingwu stated.

“Is that all?” Jiang Hao asked further.

“What exactly are you trying to ask?” Ouyang Qingwu frowned.

“I want to know what the Human Emperor did after sealing you away,” Jiang Hao replied truthfully.

The question left all three stunned.

They had no answer.

Because they didn't know.

“It seems you don't know either,” Jiang Hao shook his head with a sigh and continued, “In that case, I have another question; I heard that you're about to establish a Supreme Immortal Court, may I know the progress of this venture?”

“Of course, it's about to succeed,” Ji Hui said earnestly.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Hao said, “They say the Supreme Immortal Court's establishment requires the Three Heavens Beyond the Heaven. Have you acquired the Three Heavens Beyond the Heaven?”

“You know more than we do,” Ouyang Qingwu remarked.

Jiang Hao nodded, understanding.

Their strength was insufficient, they knew little about these matters.

Thus, he decided not to inquire further.

Glancing at the three, he said calmly,

“Would you allow me to leave?

Spare me, and spare yourselves as well.

A formidable existence stands behind me.

You can't take me with you.

If you release me now, you are free to leave.”

Ouyang Qingwu looked at Jiang Hao, pondering for a long time before finally remaining still.

“What's wrong?” Ouyang Hui asked.

Ouyang Qingwu kept his gaze on Jiang Hao.

At this moment, Jiang Hao smiled and said, “You realize my importance, and so does the Heavenly Note Sect. Bright Moon Sect feels the same.

So do you really think it will be that easy to take me away?

The reason for your success might merely be their game.

Or perhaps it's to give me a wake-up call.

They're about to arrive,

or they may already be here, watching you in the shadows.

Let me go, and you might still have a chance to leave.

If you insist on taking me, you'll never be able to escape the ninth stage.

So what will it be?

Spare me, and leave a way out for yourselves.”

Jiang Hao spoke sincerely.

His gaze rested on Ouyang Qingwu.

The other was quite an upright person from the Immortal Clan,

Someone worthy of admiration.

Therefore, he offered him a chance to choose.

Life or death.

The choice lay with the other.

Of course, it was not fair to the other; after all, no one would choose to let go of their captive at such a juncture.

After all, they had an absolute advantage.

But this was the best choice Jiang Hao could offer.

“Ouyang Elder, what are you hesitating about?” asked Ouyang Hui.

With a sigh, Ouyang Qingwu closed his eyes and finally released Jiang Hao, “You may go.”

Oh?

Jiang Hao looked at the other party in shock.

Without any hesitation, he took steps to leave.

It was a correct choice, but those who could make it were rare.

Even Jiang Hao himself might not be able to make such a choice.

Yet, the other party had done it.

Thus, Jiang Hao naturally kept his promise.

To grant them a way out.

After that, he quickly flew back on his sword.

However, soon after, arguing voices followed.

“Why let it be this way? We finally caught him, and just like that, we let him go back? Doesn't this show our incompetence?”

“Yeah, the elder asked us to capture him, and now we just let him go? What was the point of our earlier actions?”

“Forget it, he's right. What we deem important, others must also deem important. The fact that he could leave the Heavenly Note Sect is abnormal, the formation is abnormal, and their attitude is abnormal as well.

There's no need to risk our lives for this, our goal is still to recruit people and establish the Supreme Immortal Court.”

“You are cowardly, Elder. Do you even deserve to be part of the Immortal Clan?” Ouyang Hui said angrily.

“Let's go back,” said Ouyang Qingwu.

Jiang Hao listened and swiftly disappeared from the spot.

His flight on the sword was not in a hurry.

There was a considerable distance from the Heavenly Note Sect.

It was already a town location, where he could go down for a stroll and see if he could buy something to take back.

Like some pastries…

At the thought of pastries, Jiang Hao thought of the small girl.

It seemed there was no need to buy many things.

Because some people descended the mountain, others went on adventures.

The number of people staying at the Heavenly Note Sect was dwindling.

After a long time.

Jiang Hao saw a city with many people below.

Quite bustling, worth a visit.

But before he could descend, he suddenly felt someone approaching from behind.

So, Jiang Hao stood still, waiting for the person coming from behind.

Sure enough.

A fairly young man flew up empty-handed, his Dao intent clear and inducing the environment.

Ouyang Hui.

“Elder, you've come to capture me?” Jiang Hao asked.

“You will not return today. Since they won't take you back, I will,” said Ouyang Hui coldly.

Jiang Hao nodded, then slightly raised his hand and followed through with a sweep.

After that, he turned around and headed for the city.

Ouyang Hui's eyes turned cold, feeling that this clown wasn't taking him seriously at all.

Pretentious mysticism.

But just as he was about to step forward, he suddenly felt darkness descend from the sky.

Followed by the appearance of moonlight.

Then there was no thereafter.

On the other side.

“Ouyang Elder, just let him go catch the man,” Ji Hui said, trying to persuade.

“I said let him leave, and that means let him leave. You dare to act on your own,” said Ouyang Qingwu, somewhat angry.

“What threat could a Returning Void Cultivator pose?” Ji Hui said disdainfully.

“Cultivation sometimes is not the only representation of a threat. Although he seems harmless, looking at the various circumstances, he is indeed a danger.

It would be very difficult for us to take him away,” Ouyang Qingwu said thoughtfully, “We're not at the point where we must fight to death.”

“Perhaps by the time we get there, elder brother has already succeeded,” said Ji Hui.

A while later.

They arrived above the city.

Ouyang Hui was just standing there.

Seeing that there was only one person, Ouyang Qingwu breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Hui felt a bit resigned, “Failed, then let it be, let's go back.”

Ouyang Qingwu also instructed the others to go back.

But when they called him twice and got no response.

Ji Hui found it strange, then moved forward to Ouyang Hui and lightly touched him.

However, her hand just passed through Ouyang Hui's body.

This sudden occurrence left her utterly terrified.

Then, with her own eyes, she saw the seemingly fine person before her beginning to disintegrate bit by bit.

The true intent of the Tao extinguishing, the domineering Immortal Fate shattered, vitality withering away.

She watched as a person died in front of her.

In a way she could not comprehend at all.

“Let's go!”

Ouyang Qingwu grabbed the terrified Ji Hui and hurriedly left.

Without daring to stay the slightest bit longer.
