Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning-Chapter 218 - What Happens If You See the Female Demon
Chapter 218: What Happens If You See the Female Demon
Silver sand was scattered in the courtyard.
Jiang Hao stood by the peach tree and saw Hong Yuye sitting on a wooden chair, so he gently activated some formations in the courtyard, causing light to shine upward from the ground.
The light was soft and faint, just enough to make out the surroundings.
The room also had similar formations, differing only in location, so there was no sense of darkness.
But Jiang Hao didn’t want his courtyard to be too bright in the darkness.
It could attract the attention of those with ill intentions.
“Are the formations hidden beneath the grass and trees?” Hong Yuye asked calmly.
“Are you worried the light is too obvious?”
“There are senior’s flowers in the courtyard; it’s always right to be cautious,” Jiang Hao replied while preparing tea for Hong Yuye.
Once the tea was ready, Hong Yuye picked up the cup and took a gentle sip.
“Have you planted any other strange things recently?”
“No,” Jiang Hao shook his head.
Even if he had, he wouldn’t say it, as it could be a matter of keeping them safe or not.
After a long time, Hong Yuye finished her tea and slowly said.
“Your ability to hide treasures is worse than I thought.”
As she spoke, she glanced at the room, looking exactly where Jiang Hao had hidden the Heaven and Earth sub-ring.
Jiang Hao did not respond, acting as if the treasure did not exist.
“Take good care of my flowers; it’s been four years, and I see no progress.”
Hong Yuye stood up, transforming into a red shadow and disappearing from the spot.
After Hong Yuye left, Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.
Somehow, he remembered the image of Hong Yuye bathing.
For a moment, he was curious: what if there hadn’t been enough silver moon petals and he had happened to see something?
Would he have been treated inhumanely?
Or would it be the same as now, just a bump?
Unfortunately, there was no answer to such questions unless he experienced it again.
As for Hong Yuye’s appearance of being asleep, he didn’t know whether it was intentional or not.
But it didn’t matter much because he would never dare to do anything.
Let’s talk about surpassing her strength later.
Right now, I need to focus on Bai Ye and find out the specific conditions for becoming the chief disciple.
That’s something I can pursue later.
By then, I should be able to stay peacefully in the Tianyin Sect.
Other external threats will naturally be handled by the sect.
It’s good to just ride on the coattails of the big tree.
However, because of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, more and more people will set their sights on me.
Strong figures from outside the south will start to take notice and will eventually send people.
If they’re too aggressive, there will definitely be spies following.
I hope a few more like Liu Xingchen will come.
But hopefully, they won’t be as formidable as him.
After this attacker, Jiang Hao realized that trying to forcefully take the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower could lead to trouble.
“I wonder if these people count as fish. If they are, then Elder Bai Zhi is truly fearsome.”
After musing for a moment, Jiang Hao returned to his room to start making talismans.
.......
It wasn’t until the early morning that he heard the rabbit hurrying back.
It said that a friend on the road had invited it to stay overnight.
Jiang Hao smiled knowingly, aware that the rabbit probably only woke up in the middle of the night and likely didn’t find its way back clearly.
After all, this small river has many branches, and once you go down, it converges with other rivers.
So if the rabbit isn’t familiar with the area, it would have to look for the location of Duanqing Cliff first.
The danger Dan Yuan mentioned has disappeared, so Jiang Hao can only wait for the next gathering.
And see when the Fairy Gui will come looking for him.
If they make no noise, that would be best.
He can continue to take care of the Spiritual Medicine Garden and accumulate cultivation.
And make talismans to earn spirit stones on the side.
Two peaceful months passed, and Jiang Hao stood in the courtyard, noticing that the peach tree had grown another half a person tall.
It’s been growing faster lately.
It’s a pity that there hasn’t been much progress with the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.
He has appraised it, and it’s just a matter of continuing to water it.
It seems the growth rate of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower is slow.
Before going to the Spiritual Medicine Garden, Jiang Hao checked his status panel.
【Name: Jiang Hao】
【Age: 24】
【Cultivation: Early Nascent Soul】
【Cultivation Techniques: Tianyin Hundred Revolutions, Primordial Heart Sutra】
【Divine Abilities: Nine Revolutions Death Replacement (unique), Daily Appraisal, Clear Heart and Pure Mind, Hidden Spirit Manifestation, Divine Might】
【Vital Energy: 63/100 (can be cultivated)】
【Cultivation: 62/100 (can be cultivated)】
【Divine Abilities: 2/3 (cannot be acquired)】
“Twenty-four years old.”
Looking at his age, Jiang Hao felt quite sentimental.
He vaguely remembered being nineteen years old when he reached Foundation Establishment.
Five years have passed, and now he’s in the early Nascent Soul stage.
If this year goes well, he should be able to advance to the middle Nascent Soul stage.
Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered his Junior Brother Han Ming.
“I wonder how Junior Brother Han is doing. He’s twenty-three now and probably still some time away from the late Foundation Establishment stage. I wonder when he will come to challenge me again.”
Sometimes Han Ming’s challenges are quite interesting.
Next time he comes, if he’s in the late Foundation Establishment stage, I’ll take him down in three moves.
It’s always been one or two strikes, which can affect his enthusiasm.
With a slight smile, Jiang Hao left the courtyard and headed towards the Spiritual Medicine Garden.
On the way, Jiang Hao asked about Lin Zhi’s situation.
“It’s not good,” the rabbit sighed.
“Lord Rabbit occasionally goes to find him, initially teaching him martial arts. Later, realizing he could only take hits, we started teaching him body refining techniques. After half a month, we found he also had no talent for it.”
“And then?” Jiang Hao asked.
He only occasionally paid attention, leaving the specific guidance to the rabbit.
When he had time, he would go to check the rabbit’s progress, which so far had been satisfactory.
It’s just that Lin Zhi was so easily deceived he didn’t know up from down.
Fortunately, it didn’t affect his cultivation.
“Then Lord Rabbit consulted friends from the road and decided to teach him how to take a beating,” the rabbit continued, shaking its collar.
“And recently, when he takes a beating, he doesn’t get hit in vital spots.”
Jiang Hao nodded without saying much; the rabbit had many friends from the road.
All sorts of types.
However, learning how to take a beating really suits Lin Zhi, who is still at the first layer of Qi Refining.
And he often gets bullied.
But he has advanced to the second stage of the Star Moon Qi Refinement Technique, and by the ninth stage, he should be a Foundation Establishment.
He has given the subsequent techniques to the rabbit, and when the time comes, the rabbit will teach him.
Compared to Lin Zhi, Chu Chuan is getting braver with each fight, now nearly reaching the third layer of Qi Refining.
His advancement is also swift.
It’s only been a year and a half since he started cultivating.
Walking on the road, Jiang Hao suddenly felt a faint aura from the stone slabs.
“It seems it’s time for the third gathering.”
Jiang Hao had been waiting for quite a while.
This gathering is much earlier than usual, probably because of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.
......
Evening.
Upon returning to his residence, Jiang Hao took out the stone slab to inspect it.
The gathering was set to begin at midnight tonight.

“I need to prepare to handle their questions.”
He wanted to give off an aura of mystery, power, and reclusiveness.
Thus, he had to roughly prepare his background, location, and purpose to avoid being caught off guard by their questions.
Midnight.
Jiang Hao entered the Secret Whisper Slate.
He was somewhat looking forward to the reaction of senior Dan Yuan, and also to confirm whether the person in question was dead, had escaped, or had been captured alive.
Tianyin Sect had a habit of capturing people alive.
In their view, captives were valuable.
Not only could they be locked in the Lawless Tower, but their forces could also pay a ransom for their release.
Without a ransom, they could be thrown into the mines as free labor.
In short, Tianyin Sect liked to squeeze every last bit of value out of people.
