Chapter 29 There’s a Secret Hidden in His Heart, Seeing One Leaf and Knowing Autumn
For Nanque Sacred City, this was an extraordinary day.
All the returning influential figures immediately ordered their family or sect’s strongmen to prepare lavish gifts and go to Qingxu Holy Land the next day to apologize.
Now, Qingxu Holy Land only had a dilapidated stone gambling shop left. Its territories and ruins had long been divided by various sects and forces.
However, for the influential figures, gathering those resources was easy; they just needed to give the orders.
No one had expected the young master of the hidden immortal clan to personally show up and back Qingxu Holy Land.
What they needed to do now wasn’t just to satisfy Qingxu Holy Land but to satisfy Jiang Minghan and give him an explanation.
The subsequent news caused a huge sensation.
Qingxu Holy Land had a turnaround, their suffering ending in sweetness, making all cultivators envious.
Of course, some elders sighed, feeling it was deserved. After all, the blood of the Qingxu Holy Land elder who died eighty thousand years ago to stop the dark calamity shouldn’t have been shed in vain.
In the palace, Jiang Minghan brought up his attribute panel.
His cultivation hadn’t improved much recently, but his cheap fiancée Su Mingyue, whom he had bound, had advanced rapidly, far exceeding Jiang Minghan’s expectations.

Su Mingyue, as a destiny’s favored one, had indeed not disappointed Jiang Minghan, showing significant improvement in her cultivation and insights.
Especially recently, she had somehow obtained a drop of the Ancient Black Phoenix’s essence blood, from which she comprehended a trace of the True Sun’s Intent.
Using her insights, Jiang Minghan had successfully gained the True Sun’s Intent and the True Sun’s Avatar.
With a bit more comprehension, he felt he could even directly attain the True Sun Domain or even more profound True Sun Laws…
This was the benefit of binding a destiny’s favored one; basically, you didn’t have to do anything but lie down and win.
Moreover, Su Mingyue’s favorability towards him was increasing daily, which was entirely unexpected for Jiang Minghan.
He could only attribute it to Su Mingyue’s tendency to overthink.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Jiang Minghan raised an eyebrow, looking outside the hall.
The moonlight was clear and cold like silver, and dark clouds obscured it, casting large shadows. The night wind was chilly, bringing a bit of cold.
“Did you sense anyone outside the hall just now?”
He withdrew his gaze, frowning slightly.
“Reporting to the young master, this old servant sensed no one.”
The hunchbacked old man responsible for driving the carriage appeared from the void, answering respectfully.
“Even Old Fu, a peak Divine King, with one foot in the Saint Realm, didn’t sense it. That person’s cultivation must exceed the Saint Realm.”
“A Saint Realm cultivator sneaking in silently?”
Hearing this, Jiang Minghan remained calm but had a guess.
He was sure his senses weren’t wrong; someone had indeed sneaked in, even if only for a moment.
Nanque Sacred City had existed for a million years, yet Saint Realm cultivators were rare, typically the eldest of each sect.
They wouldn’t easily show themselves unless their sects faced great danger.
So, the mysterious Saint Realm cultivator just now likely wasn’t from these sects.
Instead…
“From Qingxu Holy Land…”
“Most likely the crippled master of Xiao Hongdou and her brother? As I suspected, this small Qingxu Holy Land hides deeply.”
Jiang Minghan smiled faintly, not thinking the person came to harm him.
At most, they came to probe his intentions for helping Qingxu Holy Land.
After all, no one dared to openly scheme against him.
Five thousand years ago, Qingxu Holy Land suffered sudden disaster.
The sect master went mad first, and then many elders and disciples encountered accidents and fled.
The once-thriving Qingxu Holy Land quickly declined and collapsed.
Most forces speculated it was because Qingxu Holy Land unearthed a bucket of blood-soaked mud in the Divine Ruins Mine, encountering ominous and strange events.
Surely, some couldn’t resist investigating what Qingxu Holy Land had unearthed.
In five thousand years, many events had transpired.
Although Qingxu Holy Land now had only a few disciples left, it wasn’t worth much attention.
But in the eyes of some truly ancient and long-standing forces, the mystery remained unsolved. Some might have come to investigate, even asking Qingxu Holy Land’s disciples directly.
The master of Xiao Hongdou and Xiao Yan sneaking in to investigate, to Jiang Minghan, indicated they were worried he came to uncover Qingxu Holy Land’s secret.
“That’s perfect; their cautiousness proves they’re hiding something.”
“Perhaps I can learn the Book of Death’s whereabouts from them.”
Jiang Minghan planned to visit Qingxu Holy Land’s stone gambling shop tomorrow, to see this so-called crippled daoist and solve the problem of Xiao Yan, the Son of Luck.
***
“What terrifying perception. The young master of the hidden immortal clan has such strong mental power?”
“Even an ordinary Saint Realm cultivator wouldn’t sense me, but he detected me the moment I appeared…”
“What an incredible genius, only twenty-something. No wonder there are so many terrifying rumors. His brilliance indeed overshadows this great era.”
“Seeing one leaf and knowing autumn, how insightful.”
Outside the City Lord’s Mansion, in a dilapidated building, the crippled daoist, Qingxu Zi, appeared, carrying a wine gourd.
His expression was heavy, filled with disbelief, mumbling to himself.
Originally, he intended to secretly visit the City Lord’s Mansion to understand Jiang Minghan’s purpose.
But he was detected the moment he appeared, so he left quickly, not daring to linger.
