Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1086: Could You Make That Sacrifice For A Friend?

The Holy Master fled.

The one who was the most shocked at the scene was Ming Yi. She had never thought in her wildest dream that the Holy Master would run.

He did not even turn around once.

The Holy Master had just said that this person was weaker than before…

Boom!

The Holy Master crashed into the invisible barrier.

Jiang Hao stood where he was. He had no intention of going after him.

At that moment, the Holy Master, who was covered in golden light, tried to pass through the barrier. Space seemed to be pulled apart.

However, the barrier flashed.

With a bang, the Holy Master was sent flying.

He steadied himself and turned to look at Jiang Hao.

“I know you are weaker than before, so I’ll let this slide. Just let me go, and we’ll forget about this,” said the Holy Master.

“It’s better if you don’t try to run,” Jiang Hao said gently. “Besides, you’re the Holy Master. A Holy Master doesn’t seem like someone who doesn’t take revenge on people who wronged him.”

“Why bother?” The Holy Master narrowed his eyes. “We have no grudge against each other. The previous fight was just a misunderstanding.”

“Once bitten, twice shy.” Jiang Hao unsheathed his Heavenly Blade. “We can get to know each other better.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped forward.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the Holy Master, and the sword slashed down with the weight of a mountain.

Boom!

The Holy Master’s spear clashed with the sword.

Clang!

The divine soul burst forth.

The golden light of the Holy Master’s divine soul crashed into Jiang Hao.

The latter stood tall and unmoving like a mountain.

Jiang Hao attacked again.

The sword rose and fell.

Boom!

The more Jiang Hao fought, the braver he felt. The Holy Master had to retreat.

The vast sword intent suppressed the Holy Master, and he was not able to counterattack.

Boom!

The sword drew a perfect arc and fell heavily like a force that could topple the sky.

The spear shattered.

The Holy Master was sent flying.

“Why?” He gasped in disbelief. “Why is this happening? You’re clearly weaker. I can clearly feel the weakness of your primordial spirit. But how are your attacks stronger than before even in your weakened state? Even the suppression aura is stronger than before… I know humans are stupid, and they put themselves in desperate situations. How dare you provoke me when you are weaker than me? I despise you.”

“You’re too polite.” Jiang Hao stood in midair and smiled. “We could have been friends, but it’s a pity I need your divine soul. Can you make that sacrifice as a token of friendship? You have many divine souls, after all. But I doubt you have any friends.”

The Holy Master’s mouth twitched. “Look, we can talk through this, okay? The Great Era War is close. I’m destined to return. What good will it do you to become enemies with me?” asked the Holy Master.

Jiang Hao smiled but did not say anything.

The Holy Master could survive with his other divine souls anyway. There was nothing to talk about.

Without hesitation, Jiang Hao swung the sword in his hand again.

“Just tell me what you want. Maybe we can reach an agreement…” said the Holy Master.

However, Jiang Hao did not say anything.

A moment later, the Holy Master was defeated. The only thing left behind was the divine soul.

Jiang Hao kept it.

Ming Yi saw everything.

Jiang Hao turned to look at her.

She lowered her head and bowed to him. “Thank you for saving my life, Senior.”

Jiang Hao looked at her and remembered that this person was not as simple as she seemed.

After thinking for a moment, he said, “Can you find me the divine souls of your Holy Master?”

Ming Yi did not dare to hesitate in her answer. “I’ll do my best.”

Jiang Hao laughed and then disappeared.

The surrounding darkness disappeared too.

When Ming Yi looked around again, she realized that Mu Qi and Miao Tinglian had reappeared beside her.

Miao Tinglian was surprised. “She’s here!”

Just as they were talking, Ming Yi had disappeared.

She had suddenly appeared again.

The problem might have been solved.

The three of them looked at each other. They were not sure how much the other one knew.

“If you have nothing else to say, you should head back, Junior Sister,” said Mu Qi.

Ming Yi nodded. “Thank you so much, Seniors.”

Then, she bid them farewell and left.

“What do you think happened?” Miao Tinglian asked as she looked in the direction where Ming Yi had disappeared.

“Who knows? Let’s just do our job,” Mu Qi said.

Miao Tinglian nodded.

Ming Yi’s matter had nothing to do with them.

Bad and good things happened in life. The key was to maintain a balance.

She could try to break through to the Primordial Spirit Realm so that she could find more candidates for Junior Brother Jiang.

She refused to believe that she could not find someone for him.

“I think Junior Brother Jiang didn’t like the Junior Sister I recruited not because she wasn’t suitable, but because she doesn’t look that good.”

Miao Tinglian said.

Mu Qi was speechless.

After returning to the courtyard, Jiang Hao set up an array formation and threw 750,000 spirit stones and the Holy Master’s divine soul into it.

It was better to just get it over with. The longer she took, the greater the impact of the misfortune would be.

At that moment, the Mountain Sea Seal began to absorb the Holy Master’s divine soul.

The Mountain Sea Seal was usually represented by a mountain, but a second holographic mountain grew by the first one.

The mountain absorbed the divine soul and grew larger.

However, when it reached half the size of the first mountain, it stopped abruptly.

Jiang Hao opened his eyes and examined the formation.

The spirit stones were all used up.

A quarter of the soul remained.

“As expected, I still need 250,000.”

Jiang Hao sighed.

He had to figure out a way to find more spirit stones.

Putting away the remaining divine soul, Jiang Hao took out the Mountain Sea Merit Cauldron and used the Mountain Sea Seal again.
