Chapter 1756: Chapter 1429 The Sect Master Really Gets Married Chapter 1756: Chapter 1429 The Sect Master Really Gets Married Baizhi's courtyard.
Jiang Hao stood in the middle of the courtyard.
It was somewhat awkward.
At that moment, Baizhi was watching him from beneath the eaves.
He always felt her gaze was strange, which made him quite uncomfortable.
Besides, being openly fond of Heavenly Note Sect was something he was not used to.
He feared this matter would be discovered.
But as the Sect Master had asked, he could not possibly answer with a denial.
Clearly,
Everyone was pushing for this, and if he were to dissent,
It might directly terminate this matter.
Thinking this, Jiang Hao suddenly realized.
He instinctively did not want to disrupt it.
He felt somewhat ashamed.
Finally, he lowered his head and remained silent.
Baizhi too was silent, unable to understand, unable to comprehend.
She always felt that the person before her married the Sect Master because of the people behind him,
Which made her uneasy.
However, curious as she was, she still had many questions.
“Does she have feelings for you?” Baizhi asked.
Lowering his gaze, Jiang Hao sighed, “That's something you'd have to ask her, but the truth is our difference is quite significant.”
Honestly, although his cultivation might have surpassed Heavenly Note Sect by now,
Their circumstances were different.
Heavenly Note Sect stood above, possessing the capability to disdain everything, which was typical for such people.
Whereas he, Jiang Hao, was rather ordinary.
So ordinary, that he was still an Ascending Immortal Cultivator.
He did not possess a heart that arrogantly overlooked the universe, nor did he entertain thoughts of superiority.
His desires had always been simplistic: to survive, to live more peacefully.
Ideally, without anyone causing him troubles, and it would be even better if he could be wealthy.
The conflicts of the era were terrifying, so he did not want to participate.
He wanted to avoid such conflicts, and preferably, ominous creatures should not appear,
As they would directly impact his avoidance of the conflicts.
“Do you understand her?” Baizhi asked.
Jiang Hao reflected for a moment and said, “Not really, but I've learned some things about her.”
“Is there a significant gap in cultivation between you?” Baizhi asked again.
After serious consideration, Jiang Hao replied, “Not really, although she has been cultivating longer than I have, currently, I should be somewhat stronger.
“If she were at her peak, perhaps it would be a balanced match.
“But a few years from now, I might surpass her.
“With my current state, I should meet the conditions to follow through with this.”
Too weak, and he would be powerless in many matters.
But now, he was not too weak.
Although he had not reached true strength,
But…
It was barely enough.
Yes, barely.
Sometimes, opportunities come only once.
So, although he had not reached true strength, he still followed Senior Sister Miao Tinglian's suggestion.
His strength was barely sufficient.
Hearing all this, Baizhi sighed inwardly.
No wonder the Sect Master decided to marry in the status of a disciple.
It was to accommodate the person before her.
The other part thought it was an equal match, but in reality…
They were not on the same level at all.
She knew Jiang Hao concealed his cultivation, but even at his best, he was probably only around the level of True Immortals.
And True Immortal was merely the beginning.
The more she contemplated the Tao, the more she realized how difficult the path beyond True Immortal was.
Although she did not know why the Sect Master chose to marry him, the situation had reached this point.
The Sect Master had not appeared to stop it.
That was tantamount to implicit consent.
All she could do was cooperate, to facilitate.
And the person before her…
Was no longer someone she could casually question.
His status would surpass hers, becoming the most prominent person beneath the Sect Master.
Baizhi was filled with mixed emotions.
How powerful must the people behind Jiang Hao be, to bring about such an outcome?
After hesitating for a long time, Baizhi looked at Jiang Hao and asked, “You like her, but do you love her, or do you just think you are well-matched and went along with it?
“Or do you think she's beautiful and thus want to get closer to her?”
Asking about the high and mighty Sect Master made Baizhi somewhat fearful, afraid of being reprimanded.
But she was genuinely curious.
Hearing the question, Jiang Hao froze on the spot.
For a while, he did not know how to respond.
Do I love Heavenly Note Sect?
After a brief silence, Jiang Hao said, “Junior doesn't quite understand what liking someone means. Since Junior started practicing immortal cultivation from the age of five, all I've focused on is becoming stronger, gaining more abilities.
“I never considered finding a partner, someone to journey with.
“In regards to Heavenly Note Sect, it was actually an accident.
“And because of this accident, my heart towards the Tao has changed.
“Perhaps I might continue alone on the path of the Great Tao, but if I truly had to choose a partner,
“I feel that no one else would do.
“I also don't know if this is considered liking.”
Baizhi felt somewhat foolish. After such a resounding declaration, how could he still question whether it was liking or not?
Baizhi sighed. What more could she ask?
What could she ask at all?
How could Jiang Hao possibly marry the Sect Master?
Regardless of his reasons, it seemed he was about to succeed.
Recalling the Sect Master's demeanor, towering above all, she felt that the person before her would be overwhelmed.
But, this was no longer her concern.
“Go back. I have agreed to this matter. You needn't worry about what follows. Your Master and I will communicate well.
“But the preparations require quite some time. Let's say a few years. If all goes well, she will be married off from White Moon Lake within a few years.
“Prepare yourself mentally,” Baizhi said weakly.
Jiang Hao was somewhat bewildered. Married in just a few years?
Wasn't that too soon?
Jiang Hao had never thought of marrying so soon.
He believed that for those cultivating immortality, things would take a long time.
Decades or even centuries were normal.
But now, just a few years.
It was as quick as he found difficult to adjust to.
Afterward, he left the Sect Master's residence.
As soon as he stepped out, Senior Sister Zhou Chan ran toward him.
