Under the stars.
Jiang Hao stood in front of the State Preceptor, the Heavenly Blade in his hand.
But he did not unsheathe it.
He only had the thought just now.
To let the State Preceptor experience the beginning of the Great Overarching Heaven.
The current him, of course, would not draw his sword lightly.
Especially in front of the State Preceptor.
It's not appropriate.
The academy's head expressed mild curiosity: “Is it over just like that?”
Jiang Hao put away the Heavenly Blade and said, “Yes, it's over.”
“I only felt the sword's intent, nothing else was noticeable,” the academy's head spoke up.
“Head of the academy, your strength isn't sufficient, and even in death, you're only about True Immortals level,” Jiang Hao shook his head and said: “It's normal not to sense it; after all, at your current level, you're distinguished here, but once you go out, you're still inexperienced.”
The academy's head chuckled without a word.
At this moment, the State Preceptor, who sat unperturbed on the high chair, suddenly gasped for breath.
Sweat poured down her face.
Now, when she looked at Jiang Hao again, it was as if she recalled matters from countless eons ago.
Then incredulously, she said: “Tian Liu?”
“The State Preceptor still remembers me,” Jiang Hao said calmly.
“What kind of blade is this?” asked the State Preceptor in shock.
“Great Overarching Heaven,” Jiang Hao explained.
At this moment, Heavenly Note Sect suddenly said: “The seventh form of the Heavenly Blade, a third day that does not exist; his innate talents are inferior to the State Preceptor's. He ascended at seventy, comprehended Great Overarching Heaven at eighty, and broke through the heavens to enter the Daluo Realm at the age of four hundred using Great Overarching Heaven.
He single-handedly sealed the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl, and the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl, as well as the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone.
Indeed, they are not on par with the old Daluo who took who-knows-how-many years to advance to the Daluo Realm.
He couldn't even touch the Heavenly Fate ominous creatures.”
All at once, the State Preceptor was choked up and speechless.
Some people, when they should speak, turn mute, and when they shouldn't, they're like chatterboxes.
An old woman is just an old woman.
Emotionally unstable.
But these words shocked her.
What kind of legend was this person before her?
Four hundred years old?
Could a four hundred-year-old achieve so much?
Was this woman boasting about her husband?
However, she soon looked at Jiang Hao and asked: “What was your relationship with her before you saw me?”
The State Preceptor pointed at Heavenly Note Sect.
“Husband and wife,” Jiang Hao replied.
“So, you came back for her?” asked the State Preceptor.
“More or less,” Jiang Hao nodded.
It started with curiosity, then began to ponder that wound.
Upon seeing Cheng Yun, the plan took shape.
And then the arrangements started.
“That means you watched her grow up?” the State Preceptor continued to ask.
“Yes,” Jiang Hao nodded.
The State Preceptor deflated: “Then you know everything she's done? How can I talk about her dark past? I don't like you guys anymore.”
Jiang Hao wasn't too concerned but rather said: “After the State Preceptor came here, it seems you've lived quite comfortably.”
“Thanks to that old woman's blessing. Otherwise, I even wonder if you would have saved me, especially since it seemed quite difficult, the more I understood the harder it seemed.
I never expected I would have to rely on this old woman back then,” said the State Preceptor somewhat angrily.
Jiang Hao did not explain.
There indeed was such a reason.
Of course, the State Preceptor would save him if possible;
After all, a lot was done by the other party.
Both emotionally and rationally, it was worth trying.
It was just that because it involved Heavenly Note Sect, he could not ignore it.
Pausing for a moment, the State Preceptor suddenly asked curiously: “That's not right, you do not have any Tao aura on you, how then did you manage to execute that blade? There's no reason for me to lose.”
Heavenly Note Sect chuckled: “Old hag, you've aged, and times have changed.”
The State Preceptor, looking at Heavenly Note Sect, sighed internally; thus, she had always found this woman troublesome since the beginning.
Childish.
Childish at the age of ten, childish at eight thousand, still childish even now.
“Aren't you two just chatting about family matters? Is this a place where you can stay for long?” the academy's head couldn't help but interject.
At those words, the State Preceptor turned to look at the academy head and said: “Corpse collector?”
“Is there a problem?” the academy head asked.
“Why would the corpse collector cooperate so willingly to help out?” The State Preceptor wondered: “It seems like you have a strong sense of humanity.”
“Dean of the Western Astronomical Academy, familiar with my husband,” Heavenly Note Sect interjected with an explanation.
“Your husband knows a lot of people,” the State Preceptor commented and then carried on: “Let's not discuss how you got in here, tell me what you're looking for me for. You can't leave now, and the current me is almost locked up here.
If I go out, you won't be able to protect me.
I've peeked at many things, going outside just means death.”
Jiang Hao indeed believed that leaving this place would be very dangerous.
“About that,” Jiang Hao took out the coffin.
Seeing the coffin, the State Preceptor was somewhat surprised: “You can take this out? But what are you giving it to me for?”
“It needs to be opened, and we want to use this room to do that. May we?” Jiang Hao asked.
“You're going to let the corpse collector open it?” inquired the State Preceptor.
Jiang Hao nodded.
The State Preceptor lamented, not expecting that the corpse collector would actually help with such a matter.
If the corpse collector turns to be one of us, then indeed many things will become easier.
After inspecting the coffin carefully and examining the room, the State Preceptor asked: “Who's in there? What's the cultivation level?”
“The wife of the Human Emperor, probably at Human Immortal Cultivation,” Jiang Hao answered.
“Human Immortal?” The State Preceptor asked incredulously: “Then why open it at all? A Human Immortal lying in a coffin is practically beyond hope.”
Jiang Hao shook his head slightly: “Someone protected her, but I'm not sure how long they can last, so the coffin needs to be opened without hurting the Human Immortal.”
“That's not simple, I need to rearrange everything. Leave the coffin with me, and I will study it further.
In some time, you can come and open my door again, and as for how many years, let's say a thousand,” the State Preceptor said.
Jiang Hao looked somewhat astonished.
A thousand years?
“What kind of expression is that?” the State Preceptor looked at Heavenly Note Sect and Jiang Hao.
“He reached Daluo at four hundred, now four hundred and fifty-two, and you want us to wait a thousand years?” Heavenly Note Sect said: “If all goes well, he would have reached the realm he opened himself by then.”
