Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1700



Chapter 1700: Chapter 1403: Han Ming of the Heavenly Note Sect Chapter 1700: Chapter 1403: Han Ming of the Heavenly Note Sect Over three hundred years had passed in this vast world.

Every place had undergone earth-shattering changes.

In the cities of ordinary people, changes had occurred through generations of inheritance, rendering familiar places completely foreign.

Jiang Hao passed by Fallen City, glancing at the place where his home once stood.

That area had long since become a lake.

“Your home?” Heavenly Note Sect stood by Jiang Hao's side and inquired.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded with considerable sentiment and said,

“I grew up here when I was a child.”

“A lake?” Heavenly Note Sect spoke calmly.

“It wasn't a lake before. About a hundred years ago, a sinkhole appeared here, and then water bubbled up, thus forming a lake.” Jiang Hao felt somewhat helpless,

“Indeed, it's quite unexpected.

“But with the passage of time, seas become mulberry fields, and it's not that strange.”

Heavenly Note Sect looked at Jiang Hao and said, “You can't let go?”

Jiang Hao shook his head and smiled,

“On the contrary, I've already let go, but there's still some puzzlement in my heart.”

“What's troubling you?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

Jiang Hao thought for a moment and said, “Who exactly gave birth to me?”

Heavenly Note Sect frowned slightly, “That's a concern?”

“I suppose.” Jiang Hao spoke softly,

“I was raised by a stepmother, and she was the one who sold me to the Heavenly Note Sect.

“Later, I found out that what I knew might not be the truth.

“It's cliche, but I can't forget them.”

“Is it the bond of kinship that you can't forget?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

Jiang Hao withdrew his gaze and took to the air with Heavenly Note Sect, then shook his head and said,

“I don't know, I just feel a strange connection.

“I had a stepmother, and she raised me and personally sold me to the Heavenly Note Sect.

“I remember that year there was a great drought, many people suffered, and I was conveniently sold off.”

“What about your father?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

Jiang Hao shook his head, “I don't know, I remember he was a scholar. As for the matter of my stepmother selling me, he rarely intervened, and whether he agreed to sell me in the end is hard to say.

“But all these years, I still can't forget my abusive stepmother.”

“Why is that?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

“Because she resembles her.” Jiang Hao lost himself in memories and said,

“She greatly resembled my birth mother in memory, some of her words and actions were very similar.

“So even though I knew she was my stepmother, I still called her mother.

“In my youth, I really wanted to find them, to see them.

“Even wanted to ask why they sold me.”

“And then?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

“There's no 'and then.' Whatever the answer is, it's no longer important,” Jiang Hao sighed and said,

“The Heavenly Note Sect has more ties that bind me.

“I can no longer leave on my own.”

“Is that so,” Heavenly Note Sect spoke softly.

Jiang Hao nodded, and then spoke of the Mobile Major Sect.

“It seems your spirit beast isn't too badly off,” Heavenly Note Sect chuckled.

Jiang Hao shook his head and said, “This has little to do with the spirit beast, who at most has just become a Human Emperor.

“The issue lies with the small girl.

“Her cultivation might have already reached the level of a Heavenly Immortal.

“More importantly, her Dragon Pearl could even allow her to contend with True Immortals.

“That's why the Divine Turtle could not evade her capture.”

“What if they finish treasure hunting and return with the Mobile Major Sect to find you?” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

Jiang Hao furrowed his brows and said, “That's impossible, at most they would return on their own, and as long as the spirit beast regularly sees the map, they won't come back.”

“They are causing such a commotion, aren't you worried they might be in danger?” Heavenly Note Sect queried further.

“Little Wang is there, I have already released quite a bit of Little Wang's original form, and now he is stable.

“It shouldn't pose too much danger.

“The small girl might be young, but her strength is not weak,” Jiang Hao said earnestly.

These people are naturally troublemakers.

Releasing them means leaving trouble far from oneself.

After causing trouble, should they be allowed to come back?

What then would be the point of releasing them?

Heavenly Note Sect pondered for a moment and said, “Is the small girl of age yet?”

Jiang Hao sighed, “Still the same as always.”

Heavenly Note Sect reminded, “A dragon matures upon ascension, the small girl is nearly a Heavenly Immortal, but still not mature, which is abnormal.”

Jiang Hao was well aware of that.

But there had always been no clue about the small girl's origin.

Only the Red Dragon mentioned the Forbidden Dragon.

Which era it was from remained an unknown.

Thus, Jiang Hao hadn't been too concerned.

Whatever the case, the small girl's strength was growing.

Moreover, few knew she was the Forbidden Dragon.

Apart from the Ancestral Dragon who could recognize her at a glance, other dragons could hardly tell.

This meant there wasn't much danger.

The Red Dragon probably wouldn't make a rash move; after all these years, he had shown no activity.

This suggested he lacked the intention.

However, it was unexpected that they hadn't found the small girl yet.

Afterward, the two hastened on their journey.

In February of the following year.

In the North.

Snow flew about.

Jiang Hao sat in a carriage, driving on a public road.

He had successfully entered the North after half a year.

There was still some distance to the Li Clan.

He wasn't in a hurry since there were often people to chat with at gatherings.

Yi was among them, and he did not mention any problems.

So, Jiang Hao planned to visit Han Ming first.

After so many years, his disciple brother Han Ming should be about to ascend.

He would see whether Han Ming could ascend and then continue on his way.

It wouldn't delay much time.

However, there was one matter he was curious about.

That was Zhang's proposition: if killing a fierce beast would prevent the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone from turning.

Star had provided an answer.

But the reason was unknown.

It simply said, it would be counterproductive.

Jiang Hao took the opportunity to ask Heavenly Note Sect.

“The essence of a fierce beast is just a form of strength, killing it would do no good,” Heavenly Note Sect's voice rose from within the carriage.

“What about a seal then? Wouldn't it mean the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone could never be activated?” Jiang Hao asked.
