After instructing him, Hong Yuye disappeared.

She was satisfied with the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, and she didn’t ask further.

As long as Jiang Hao was in the courtyard, he would channel his purple energy and nourish the spirit herbs.

When he left, he would leave the task of watering the plant to the spirit beast.

Fortunately, being gone for a while wouldn’t have much impact.

He could continue to take care of the flower after he returned.

As for Hong Yuye not accompanying him on the trip, it would be dangerous without her, but he would have more freedom.

After that, he went to find Cheng Chou.

The outer sect’s Spirit Herb Garden was finally fine, and Cheng Chou wasn’t very busy.

After more than a decade, the outer sect’s Spirit Herb Garden had finally returned to normal.

“We just need to send some people over, and the people from the Candlelight Pill Pavilion will oversee it,” Cheng Chou said.

“Any issues with your cultivation?” Jiang Hao asked.

Cheng Chou was already in his forties. He was still diligently laying the foundation, which would aid in breaking through to the later stages of his cultivation realm.

Jiang Hao often explained cultivation matters to him.

After that, Cheng Chou raised some more questions, and Jiang Hao explained them more deeply.

The more he advanced, the better he understood the realms.

When reviewing his own cultivation realm, he opened his mind to clarity.

The more he comprehended, the better he could understand.

He also understood more about his own strength.

The nameless manual mainly focused on control, so his understanding became deeper.

Cheng Chou had average talent. If it were someone else, they would have already advanced to the later realms.

However, he made progress, and his foundation was solid.

One advantage Cheng Chou had was Jiang Hao’s guidance.

He could progress steadily.

He knew his talent was average, so he dared not be impatient.

Only by taking it one step at a time could there be hope for advancement. Perhaps he could attempt to break through to the Golden Core Realm in a few decades.

There was great hope within a hundred years.

After helping Cheng Chou, he found the spirit beast and Xiao Li.

He instructed them to keep a close eye on the Spirit Herb Garden.

The people from the Heavenly Saint Sect had been cleared out, and the sect was also conducting strict inspections, so there should be peace for some time. Junior Brother Jiang…” Sister Miao walked over to him with a smile.

She had returned to normal.

There were no issues with her cultivation either.

Jiang Hao politely greeted her.

“My health has improved lately, so I visited other branches. Can you guess what I saw?” Miao Tinglian said mysteriously.

“What?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Take a look. It’s quite astonishing.” Miao Tinglian took out a scroll. “Open and

see. ”

Jiang Hao opened the scroll carefully.

He saw a portrait of a beautiful and elegant woman. She had delicate features and innocent eyes.

“Beautiful, right? And she is very obedient and nice. Although her talent was a bit lacking, she actually is very gifted. She’s a good match for you. As long as you agree, I’ll help you,” Miao Tinglian said triumphantly.

Jiang Hao was speechless.

‘Do you have nothing to do all day?’

Jiang Hao felt that it had been more peaceful when she was ill.

He sighed and shook his head. “Thank you so much, Senior Sister Miao, for your kind intentions, but I am just going to focus on my cultivation.”

Miao Tinglian nodded. “Do you like feisty ones instead? I agree that innocence can be… boring. I guess you would like it if she looked demure but was feisty secretly. She could then fulfill all your fantasies.”

Jiang Hao immediately looked around and found Senior Brother Mu Qi.

He walked straight toward him. He hoped Mu Qi would take her away. For a moment, he felt like Senior Sister Miao was repaying his kindness with hostility.

He could have been swayed by her persuasion if he was a usual cultivator.

But it was impossible for him to even think about it.

The next day, Jiang Hao went to the Task Hall to accept the task of recruiting the disciple.

When he returned to the Cliff of Broken Hearts, he saw Han Ming. It seemed he was just coming out of seclusion.

Jiang Hao felt a sword’s intent from him.

It was there before, but it wasn’t as sharp.

Moreover, he was not far from the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, which surprised him.

Junior Brother Han was indeed talented.

To be so near the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm at just thirty-seven was truly remarkable.

Han Ming, who had been somewhat naive in the past, now had a restrained brilliance, and the sword intent circulated around him.

He had become much more mature.

“Junior Brother Han, are you here to find me?” Jiang Hao asked.

“I want to challenge you, Senior Brother Jiang. I am confident this time I can give you a good fight,” Han Ming said confidently.

Jiang Hao smiled. “Alright. The usual place?”

After that, the two went to an open meadow near Jiang Hao’s courtyard.

At that moment, Han Ming released his sword intent, and thunder roared around him. A powerful and chilling sword intent swept in all directions.

“Senior Brother Jiang, be careful.”

Han Ming disappeared.

Junior Brother Han turned into a sword intent. It was astonishing.

The Half-Moon Blade appeared in Jiang Hao’s hands.

His blade’s intent manifested, and the Demonic Sound Slash resonated.

Clang!

Jiang Hao stood still, while Han Ming’s sword fell to the ground.

“Junior Brother Han, you are truly outstanding, ” Jiang Hao said as he turned around.

Han Ming lowered his head, picked up his sword, bowed, and left.

“I now understand your strength, Senior Brother Jiang. The next time we meet will be the day I defeat you. You can carry on hiding in the Spirit Herb Garden till then,” said Han Ming.

Jiang Hao smiled softly. He knew that Han Ming was sulking.

Shaking his head, he returned to the courtyard and checked the golden rings.

After that, he disappeared from the spot.

It was July right now. He had to return to the sect by October.

In the western region, in the Divine Rotation Sect, a figure appeared in the cave.

Jiang Hao arrived and began to observe his surroundings.

It was a secret chamber with a simple cultivation platform on the ground and nothing else.

With a wave of his hand, the golden ring flew up from the ground and returned to his wrist.

Guan Zhongfei was a disciple of the Divine Rotation Sect, and this place seemed isolated. It was most likely an inner area of the sect.

Jiang Hao planned to go outside.

It would be even better if he could meet Guan Zhongfei and retract the Mountain Sea Seal.

He could then let Guan Zhongfei know that the matter was resolved.

However, as he was about to leave the secret chamber, he suddenly felt a warmth in his chest.

Something in his chest burned slowly.

When it burned completely, a red figure appeared beside him.

It was Hong Yuye.

Jiang Hao was surprised. “Senior, I thought you weren’t coming?”

“Not coming?” Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao icily. “What did I say to make you think that?”

Jiang Hao was puzzled. He thought about it and realized that she had never said she wasn’t coming.

He had misunderstood.

“You think I shouldn’t have come?” Hong Yuye’s eyes were icy.

“No! I was just a bit surprised. I really hoped you would come, Senior,” said Jiang Hao.

Hong Yuye chuckled and walked toward the exit. Jiang Hao followed. Hong Yuye’s arrival put a stop to some of his plans, but it also made things safer.

Powerful individuals could be unpredictable..
