Chapter 500 - 500: The Long-Awaited Oppressor Has Finally Arrived
Bi Zhu shook her head gently. “I have been cultivating, and I am only slightly inferior to the extraordinary genius.”
“Hahaha!” Bi You burst into laughter. “Sister, you still love to joke like this.” “Your Highness, the princess has always been like this since she was a child,” said Qiao Yi.
“I know.” Bi You nodded and looked at his sister. “Shall we go outside for a stroll?”
Bi Zhu smiled. “Of course. I’ll follow your arrangements.”
On the way, Bi You suddenly asked, “How old are you this year?”
“Brother, it’s impolite to ask a lady her age,” Bi Zhu said. “Anyway, I’m sixteen years old this year.”
“You do look like you’re truly sixteen, ” Bi You said with a smile.
Bi Zhu glared at him.
He chuckled and took out a small shield. “This is for you.”
“What is this?” Bi Zhu took the shield.
“It’s a little magic treasure I picked up when I was out. It can be used for defense. You’re often not in the Imperial City, and there are times when Qiao Yi can’t take care of you. This is safer,” Bi You said earnestly.
“Thank you, Brother.” Bi Zhu put away the shield and smiled.
“I’ve found some cultivation techniques recently. I’ll give them to you as well.
Take a look and see which one you can cultivate. If you advance to the
Foundation Establishment Realm, your lifespan will increase significantly.”
“Alright, I’ll take a look tonight.”
“You’re obedient now, but after you go back, you’ll just pretend this conversation never happened.”
“A genius has a bit of a personality.”
The two laughed at that.
“Are you planning to marry?” asked Bi You as they reached the small pool.
“No.” Bi Zhu shook her head, “Among the princesses, I’m considered much older. No one would be interested in someone old.”
“You just said you’re sixteen.” Bi You laughed. “It’s fine if you don’t want to marry. No one will dare to force you. Although our eldest brother doesn’t care much about us, he is ultimately our elder brother. Forcing you would be disrespectful to him too. But there’s a downside to it. Big Brother has his own faction. If the competition fails in the end, we’ll all be implicated. So, marrying you off would be safer for you because you won’t get implicated.” “What if our lifespan doesn’t even extend to that point?” Bi Zhu asked.
“That’s true,” Bi You said helplessly.
“Brother, is this marriage alliance different from the past?” Bi Zhu sat in a pavilion and asked.
Bi You sat opposite her and frowned slightly. “It’s a bit different. There are some people I’ve never seen before, and the ones invited this time are all geniuses from various sects. I might have underestimated the whole thing and assumed that geniuses from sects wouldn’t be interested in princesses.”
Bi Zhu lowered her head. She was thinking that if the royal family cooperated with the Saint Bandits to seize the geniuses’ talent, it would lead to a siege of the entire southern region.
Their father, although old, wasn’t that muddle-headed.
“Let’s not overthink this. If there’s any trouble, please inform me as soon as possible,” Bi You said.
“Brother, you should also be careful. I feel that the Imperial City is not very stable lately,” Bi Zhu said.
After seeing her brother off, Bi Zhu took out the shield and examined it.
A spirit treasure at the Primordial Spirit Realm was indeed quite extraordinary.
“Second Brother really cares for me, unlike my eldest brother, who doesn’t even visit.” Bi Zhu sighed.
If her eldest brother didn’t visit her for over a hundred years, she would have to go and visit him.
After more than a hundred years, when her lifespan was exhausted, she would have to make a trip.
After that, there was no need to stay in the southern region. There were many dangers like Jing and the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl in the south, after all.
The level of danger was extremely high.
‘Speaking of which, Jing should have returned to the southern region. I wonder if the cooperation between the royal family and the Saint Bandits will attract his attention.’
He seemed to have many sources for this type of information. Maybe she could ask about it in the gathering next time.
A few days later, in early January, Jiang Hao looked at the interface.
[Name: Jiang Hao]
[Age: 32]
[Cultivation: Late Stage of the Soul Ascension Realm]
[Cultivation Method: Heavenly Sound Hundred Revolutions, Hong Meng Heart
Sutra]
[Divine Ability: Nine Revolutions Death Substitution (unique), Daily Appraisal, Clear and Pure Heart, Reappearance of Hidden Spirit, Divine Might, Revival of Withered Tree, Heavenly Cauldron] [Vitality: 3/100 (cannot be cultivated)] [Cultivation: 1/100 (cannot be cultivated)] [Divine Power: 2/3 (cannot be obtained)] “Thirty- two. ”
It felt like he was only nineteen yesterday.
Fortunately, compared to when he was nineteen, he had many more divine abilities now, and his cultivation realm had increased significantly.
At that time, he had just met Hong Yuye.
He was at the eighth stage of the Lifeblood Refinement Realm, and he only had the Daily Appraisal and the Nine Revolutions Death Substitution abilities.
He still didn’t know what the Nine Revolutions Death Substitution did.
Now, he could proficiently use all the divine abilities, except for the Nine Revolutions Death Substitution.
Furthermore, his cultivation realm had advanced from the Lifeblood Refinement Realm all the way to Foundation Establishment, then the Golden Core, Primordial Spirit Realm, and finally the Soul Ascension Realm.
Perhaps in a few more years, he could advance from the Soul Ascension Realm to the Return to Void Realm.
The future looked promising.
After Hong Yuye left, his life became stable and peaceful.
The only trouble was that her scent still seemed to linger in the bedding.
It was very faint, but it was definitely there.
So, he changed the bedding.
The spirit beast had left the sect with Lin Zhi and would return after some time.
At the Spirit Herb Garden, Cheng Chou ran over to him as soon as he arrived.
“Is something wrong?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Yes… A Golden Core Realm senior came to demand an explanation,” Cheng Chou said nervously.
Jiang Hao wasn’t surprised.
Now that the problems in the sect had settled down, the Golden Core Realm seniors who had a grudge against him would naturally come to question him.
If they were at a higher stage than him, he would have to endure it.
But if they were at the same level as him, he wouldn’t have any of it.
Not everyone in the demonic sect had to endure everything quietly. Some people and things needed to be addressed with strength.
He had experienced this when he was in the outer sect.
True geniuses rarely came to suppress him. Only those who were similar to him in strength felt as though they were being overtaken whenever he advanced.
He was clearly just an ordinary person. So, why would they think he was on par with them?
“What’s the issue?” Jiang Hao asked.
“That Senior Brother said the cultivation method for the spirit herbs was incorrect, and there was a deviation in the growth of the plants,” Cheng Chou said.
“I’ll go take a look.” Jiang Hao nodded.
The senior had come for him and wanted to establish his dominance.
The way he needed to respond would depend on the senior’s cultivation realm.
At the edge of the spirit field stood a man with a pale complexion.
His aura was relatively stable, and he was at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm.
In front of him, three ordinary non-cultivators knelt and trembled in fear.
There was another person who was covered in blood. It seemed like he was beaten.
“If kneeling and begging could make up for losses, why would you need to compensate for anything else?” The man looked at the three ordinary people with a cold smile.
They could only beg for the senior’s forgiveness or plead for mercy.
“Why are you arguing with them, Senior?” Jiang Hao walked over calmly.
“You are the one in charge of the Spirit Herb Garden?” The man looked at Jiang Hao with a smile. ‘You don’t need to thank me for teaching these scums a lesson, Junior Brother. I wanted to kill them at first but only educated them a
little for your sake. I think they’ve learned their lesson.. Junior Brother, you won’t blame me for meddling, right?”
