Chapter 406: Mocked Again
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Before the nas were announced, Jiang Hao’s intention was for the spirit beast to take Chu Chuan to the eastern region.
However, it was too dangerous.
So, he planned for Xiao Li to go to the Master and request to go to the Bright Moon Sect, and then take Chu Chuan along.
Xiao Li was no ordinary disciple. She was the next True Disciple.
The plan was to wait for Xiao Li to reach the Foundation Establishnt Realm. But the na list was announced faster than expected.
And he was on it too.
It would be fine for Xiao Li to go, but he absolutely couldn’t.
At least not now when he had attracted the attention of Xing.
Going to the bright Moon Sect was like throwing oneself into a trap.
Furthermore, his plan would be severely restricted.
Also, if he gained any rit on the trip, it would be difficult to make it to the Law Enforcent Hall’s suspect list in the future.
A few of the spies he knew had further use. There was no need to expose them yet.
It was already enough for Xiao Li to go. As for Chu Chuan, he always wanted to visit the Bright Moon Sect. He would go on his own even if not with the team. The worst-case scenario would be letting the spirit beast accompany him there.
With enough spirit stones, magical treasures, and the spirit beast, the trip would be safe.
This saved him a lot of trouble, but he still had to give them so spirit stones for ergencies. And talismans too!
When going to the eastern region, these things might not be very useful, but it’s always good to have them at hand.
After teaching the beast how to use the rings, he let it play by itself.
However, he instructed the beast that it needed to activate the ring outside the sect. It might not be possible to use it within.
It was safer outside.
Activating it Inside the Bright Moon Sect was too dangerous.
After all, it was a genuine immortal sect. Who could if experts were constantly inspecting the surroundings for such behaviors?
If they were discovered, there would be no chance to escape.
“Why aren’t you going, Junior brother Jiang?” asked Miao Tinglian curiously.
“There’s a lot to do in the Spirit Herb Garden,” Jiang Hao said helplessly.
“It’s just so outer sect matters. But I don’t have the ti to help you guys anymore. The sect’s mission this ti is to investigate the Heavenly Saint Sect. Don’t they know what I did there in the past?” Miao Tinglian said indignantly.
‘Perhaps they do know, which is why they sent you?’ Jiang Hao didn’t dare say it aloud.
“Forget it! I’m going to the Law Enforcent Hall to get so people.” With that, Miao Tinglian turned and left.
Watching her leave, Jiang Hao decided to go to the outer sect.
He needed to see what was going on with the withered spirit herbs.
When he arrived at the outer sect, he found many people discussing the upcoming trip to the Bright Moon Sect. They seed envious of people who were getting the chance to go there.
So even thought that after they beca inner sect disciples, they might have a chance to go next ti.
Jiang Hao just listened quietly.
Opportunities could sotis be so unbelievable. Taking a step forward might lead to life-changing things. One would either be soaring to the heavens or plumting to the abyss.
This applied to his situation with the Bright Moon Sect as well.
However, he chose to stay put. He didn’t need more opportunities.
Arriving at the Outer Sect’s Spirit Herb Garden, he saw both Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivators and Lifeblood Refinent Realm cultivators all over the place.
Sotis Jiang Hao wondered why he, a Soul Ascension Realm cultivator, was mingling with them.
One of the Top Disciples had a perfect Primordial Spirit Realm.
Jiang Hao could compete for the ninth top disciple position.
He caught himself. This kind of thinking would bring him down.
Looking down on anyone might bring bitter consequences.
Others were careless in their regard for him and attacked him recklessly.
If he acted the sa way, he might very well end up the way others had.
Pushing aside unnecessary thoughts, Jiang Hao arrived at the Spirit Herb Garden.
Nowadays, nurous spirit herbs were cultivated here.
The spiritual energy was denser, but the soil was still unsuitable. It took a long ti for cultivation.
“Senior Brother Jiang,” said one of the outer sect disciples in greeting.
Jiang Hao nodded in acknowledgnt. He looked around and found that most spirit herbs had withered.
After inspecting it, he realized it was a common problem.
The soil lacked nutrients, and the surrounding spiritual energy was insufficient.
A vial of spirit liquid could solve the issue.
But there were so many spirit herbs here. One vial per herb would consu an enormous amount.
After hesitating, Jiang Hao said, “Bury all the withered herbs in the spirit field as nourishnt.”
This surprised the others, but they still obeyed him.
As he watched them bury the spirit herbs one by one, Jiang Hao felt like a pile of spirit stones was slipping away from him.
However, it couldn’t be helped.
The soil here couldn’t support so many spirit herbs. Sacrificing the ones that were about to wither so others with stronger vitality could survive was inevitable.
Letting go now would prevent even greater loss.
Many understood this principle, but few had the courage to make this decision.
Cheng Chou didn’t dare, nor did the other disciples.
Jiang Hao did it. It wasn’t just about taking a chance with the seniors. He had his own reasons.
Jiang Hao asked so questions about the situation. He wanted to find out whether anyone had co here to influence them.
The answer he received was no.
The person in charge of the Candlelight Pill Pavilion still treated them well.
Jiang Hao took a look around. It was still the sa senior as before.
He had been in charge all this ti.
Jiang Hao took his leave after watching them bury the spirit herbs.
On the way, he heard so people whisper about him.
“Is that the one from the Cliff of Broken Hearts who cultivates the Blood Wish path? Is he kind to others, or is it all for their blood?”
“Perhaps, but I heard the Blood Wish Path is… bloody. I was lucky enough to have seen what it is about. It was truly grueso. That senior looks gentle and righteous, but I never expected him to be so cruel.”
“Even if you see a kind and gentle senior in this sect, you still have to be cautious.”
“We’ve seen plenty of this type of people in our sect. It’s just that it’s the first ti it feels so shocking. I used to think he was a kind person. I really envied those people who worked under him, but now… I should consider myself fortunate not to be among them.”
Jiang Hao didn’t pay them any mind. They were just talking behind his back, after all.
And once the Blood Wish Path was established, there was nothing wrong with it.
In the beginning, he had been used by various people precisely because he was a good person.
Senior Sister Yun Ruo had been like that too, as were so others in the Hundred Bones Forest.
Now, they would weigh things carefully.
As for his reputation…
After a hundred years, or a thousand years, or even ten thousand years later, what would it matter?
If he lived long, everything would beco distant mories.
The next day, after dealing with the spirit herbs, Jiang Hao went to set up a stall to sell talismans.
The spirit beast and the others were heading out, so he needed to prepare so things for them, and that required spirit stones.
Just as Jiang Hao had set up his stall, a senior in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm approached him.
“Hey, it’s been a couple of years since we last t. You seem to have advanced to the peak of the Foundation Establishnt Realm. Does that an you already know how to draw the Six Golden Core Talismans?” Duan Guan sneered.
Jiang Hao looked at the senior in front of him. “Senior Brother, you must be joking! I still can’t.”
Indeed, he couldn’t.
“You still can’t do that? It’s really surprising that you’re already at Foundation Establishnt Realm and yet show no sign of progress,” Duan Guan said mockingly. “I suppose you haven’t even learned the Power Manipulation
Talisman yet?”
“I learned it,” Jiang Hao said.
“Learned it? Then why aren’t you selling it? Aren’t you just boasting? Even I could say I know how to make them.” Duan Guan snorted coldly. “With your attitude, you’re practically wasting your talent for talisman-making.”
After saying that, he threw down three thousand spirit stones and took all of Jiang Hao’s talismans.
Jiang Hao looked astonished.
‘Three thousand? Was this senior really wealthy? Could he possibly be an alchemist as well?’
In truth, Jiang Hao had quite a few Power Manipulation Talismans, but he just wanted to provoke the senior. Whenever the senior looked pissed, he ended up buying everything.
Next ti, if he didn’t buy his talismans, he could take out the Power Manipulation Talismans.
Who would have thought that this senior would inquire about the Six Golden Core Talismans?
He hadn’t even prepared those. There was indeed nothing he could say.
However, it was still surprising that the senior had bought all of Jiang Hao’s talismans so unexpectedly..
