Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1636: Chapter 1371: Releasing Life_2 Chapter 1636: Chapter 1371: Releasing Life_2 Turning around, Yi was tugging at his clothes.

“What's wrong?” Jiang Hao asked.

Perhaps the other party wanted to eat something, or wanted to do something.

It might also be possible she had a question to ask.

However, unexpectedly, the other party suddenly handed over a candied haw on a stick: “Senior brother, this is for you to eat.”

Jiang Hao was quite surprised, but still took the candied haw: “Why give this to me?”

“Master and Sister Xiao Li told me,” Yi said with a not-so-smart look, but she seriously continued,

“Senior brother gave me something to eat, so I also give senior brother something to eat.

“That way senior brother will give me something to eat next time.”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao laughed and asked, “Where did you buy it?”

“Senior Brother Cheng bought it for me, I helped him turn the soil, and he rewarded me,” Yi explained seriously.

Jiang Hao took a bite of the candied haw.

It was sour and truly not very tasty.

Much worse than the peaches.

He then handed it back to Yi, telling her to eat it.

Without much thought, she bitterly accepted and began to eat.

She was completely different from Xiao Li.

Of course, the similarity was that they both would take it to eat.

But one loved to eat, while the other did not.

“Once you finish eating, go and work. When you grow up you can do your own things,” Jiang Hao said kindly.

He had never thought of confining anyone here.

If they wanted to leave, he would always try to help them leave.

Of course, he would also ensure they could safely leave and move about the world.

There was also another important matter – not to reveal his name.

This time, Mu Longyu was leaving, and he needed to make it clear to him.

But that meant he had to make a trip to the Lawless Tower.

Evening.

Jiang Hao arrived on the fifth floor of the Lawless Tower.

When he arrived, the people there were still quarreling.

Arguing over who could get out the quickest, Hai Luo naturally claimed he could leave whenever he wanted.

The others sneered at him, telling him to just leave then.

But how could the Heavenly King Hai Luo heed their words?

If he really left, what face would he have left?

Jiang Hao paid no attention to them and looked towards Yan Shang instead.

The knife was still there.

But back then he was weak.

The knife couldn't pierce through the Lawless Tower.

Now he wondered if his current self could do it.

With just a hint of breath seeping in, he could slay Yan Shang.

But for now, there was no need.

The knife would always be there, and if the other dared to leave the Lawless Tower, death was certain.

Even with countless clones leaving, it would be the same.

It was even possible that, as he became increasingly powerful, when the other was leaving in an instant, he would open the absolute shield of the Lawless Tower.

At that point, a single slice would kill all, even those hiding inside the tower would die.

Felt by Yan Shang's gaze, she seemed to sense something, looking towards Jiang Hao with a trace of fear.

The others also looked over at this moment.

Jiang Hao didn't mind and walked straight to Mi Lingyue.

Consequently, Mi Lingyue became anxious: “I haven't done anything recently.”

“Hmm,” Jiang Hao nodded and said, “This month, pick two days to come to my Spirit Herb Garden and help.

“Teach me some knowledge about spirit herbs.

“My people will follow you and learn.”

“Ah?” Mi Lingyue was somewhat perplexed: “But I can't leave.”

“Before, you couldn't, but now you can,” said Jiang Hao.

Hearing this, Mi Lingyue was somewhat bewildered.

What did he mean?

Did he have a way to block the Great Thousand Spiritual Core?

But she didn't ask further.

It wasn't good to probe too much.

Jiang Hao then gave everyone a peach.

To the current Heavenly Note Sect, these people posed no threat.

But they still refused to leave this place.

In addition, cultivation was basically open to them.

Even ascending was possible.

But recovery for them was not easy, it required quite some time.

“Junior brother, these peaches are truly delicious,” the lantern bearer expressed sincerely.

“If senior brother wants to eat, you can completely come to my place.

“I can arrange for the people of the Lawless Tower to let senior brother out,” said Jiang Hao.

“Haha,” the lantern bearer laughed immediately and said,

“No need, don't want to trouble junior brother.”

Jiang Hao shook his head; these people were unwilling to be sent away.

But there was nothing he needed to ask them about.

So, he didn't need to come here often.

Of course, he still needed to come over occasionally as the Bright Moon Sect would send people over.

It wouldn't take too long.

No matter how tough they talked, once they got here, they inevitably started to feel fear.

Especially since the events here were already spreading through the Bright Moon Sect's prisoners.

End of the month.

Jiang Hao came to the Lawless Tower once again.

He took Mi Lingyue with him.

This time he personally took action and also informed the Heavenly Note Sect in the process.

If he couldn't suppress it, the other party would likely take action as well.

When Mi Lingyue stepped out of the Lawless Tower, she felt a mix of fear and anticipation.

Of course, there was also confusion.

Why would the king of Hai Luo suddenly seek her out?

When she came out, Jiang Hao also raised his head to sense the surroundings, indeed someone was trying to lock onto Mi Lingyue.

But they couldn't break through his Ruins of Return.

Using it as a shield was also quite effective.

“It seems there are no problems,” said Mi Lingyue after sensing her surroundings.

Jiang Hao nodded and said,

“Let's go then, to the Spirit Herb Garden.

The people I am waiting for are becoming anxious.”

“What are we to do this time?” Mi Lingyue asked with some confusion.

Since he helped her come out, naturally, there must be something she needed to do.

“I have a junior brother under my guidance named Mu Longyu,” said Jiang Hao.

Upon hearing this, Mi Lingyue was shocked.

But she still maintained her composure and asked, “What about him?”

“He is about to leave, to seek his own supreme Dao techniques,” Jiang Hao said as he began flying on his sword, seriously continuing, “He indeed should go out and explore. When he comes back, he should have found his own path.

My junior brothers and sisters will eventually all have to grow up.

And I must make adequate preparations for their departure.

Your knowledge of spirit herbs and formations is exceptional.

I hope you can teach him in the next two days.

To ensure that when he ventures out, he won't be at a disadvantage in these areas.

Would that be alright?”

Mi Lingyue, listening to Jiang Hao's words, felt a storm surge in her heart.

Mu Longyu was leaving the Heavenly Note Sect?

Instinctively, she wanted to refuse.

She felt somewhat unwilling to let go.

But…

Jiang Hao was right, Mu Longyu had grown up.

It was time for him to go out and explore.

“Of course, I can,” Mi Lingyue said with a smile, “I just wonder if your sect's disciples may encounter any dangers when going out?”

“There will be dangers, but they must walk their own path so that they are able to soar to great heights,” Jiang Hao said earnestly.

Chu Chuan was the same.

Even though he was being chased every day, he was becoming stronger and stronger.

To carve out a righteous path, he inadvertently chose the way of the demonic sect.

It was truly unexpected.

And indeed, beyond what anyone could have imagined.

As for this, Jiang Hao didn't think he was wrong.

As long as one stays true to their heart, that's what matters.

Moreover, he had his informants in every division; if he came to know the situation, he himself would make a trip.

After all, they had descended the mountain, so they better not be sent back up it.

Mi Lingyue didn't say much more.

A short while later, Jiang Hao and others arrived in front of the Spirit Herb Garden.

“Senior Brother,” Cheng Chou approached and said, “Junior Brother Mu is inside.”

Jiang Hao led the way inside, where he saw Mu Longyu teaching Yi how to till the soil.

The latter was learning very earnestly.

“Yi, you must listen to Senior Brother Cheng from now on, I am also going out.

When I return, you might have already grown up,” Mu Longyu said with a smile.

Yi nodded and said,

“Okay, when will Senior Brother come back?”

“It likely won't be very soon,” Mu Longyu pondered before answering.

“Then it'll be just me and Senior Brother Lin Zhi,” Yi said.

“And Senior Brother Cheng as well,” Mu Longyu added.

Yi shook her head solemnly and said, “Senior Brother Cheng said that he is here to stay, and in the future, you, Senior Brother Lin Zhi, and I will all leave.

He is the one who watches one after another leave.”

Hearing this, Mu Longyu laughed and said, “Yi, you understand a lot, I have learned something new.”

At this moment, Mu Longyu radiated a light.

Because he was about to leave, he felt a sense of parting, along with an emotion that one hates to part with.

Yet it was precisely this sentiment that led him to a greater enlightenment.

Today's letting go was to better grasp what comes tomorrow.

“Mu Longyu,” Jiang Hao approached at that moment.

Mu Longyu looked toward Jiang Hao and the person beside him, and the moment he saw her,

for some reason, Mu Longyu felt a sense of joy:

“Senior Brother, I feel a joy in my heart, but I don't know how to express it.

Yet, I still wish to share it with you all.”

Mi Lingyue looked at the monk before her, feeling an odd sensation.

It was the feeling of someone who is gentle and well-mannered, well-versed in human affairs, and also with a clear understanding of the future.

He had truly grown up.

“Hello,” Mu Longyu said to Mi Lingyue with a smile.

“Hello,” Mi Lingyue replied with a smile, “I am very pleased to be able to teach you.”
