Chapter 878 - 879: Junior Brother Jiang, Wait For Me To Advance And Find You A Partner
Han Ming sat in front of the house and looked up at the sky.
He sat there from day to night but couldn’t figure out what was affecting him.
It seemed to have started after returning from sparring with Senior Brother
Jiang.
“Is it an inner demon?”
Han Ming doubted whether his defeat had given rise to an inner demon.
He hadn’t admitted defeat yet, so how could there be an inner demon?
He hadn’t experienced an inner demon before, but this didn’t feel like it.
At that moment, he felt something strange, and the sword in his hand became ordinary.
When practicing the sword, movements had to be unrestrained.
It should feel like an extension of his limbs.
It shouldn’t be like this.
So far, he had never seen this sword.
Han Ming couldn’t understand it and could do nothing but try to hide his condition.
He would practice like he always did and improve.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to make any progress and surpass Senior Brother Jiang.
Senior Brother Jiang’s cultivation was advancing rapidly, and he needed to be even faster.
One day, he would defeat Senior Brother Jiang.
By then, he would be a senior.
Around early October, Jiang Hao had completed most of what needed to be done. He only had to meet Lin Zhi now.
The Candlelight Pill Pavilion was slowly returning the spirit stones that they owed the garden.
Cheng Chou didn’t dare to provoke them.
Many people in the Candlelight Pill Pavilion respected Jiang Hao whether they were in the Golden Core Realm or the Primordial Spirit Realm.
The group of Foundation Establishment Realm alchemists dared not offend Jiang Hao.
While Jiang Hao tended the Spirit Herb Garden, the spirit beast and Xiao Li played on the side.
They strolled around the Spirit Herb Garden to make sure everything was okay.
Every few minutes, it went to report to Jiang Hao.
“Junior Brother Jiang?” said a voice behind Jiang Hao.
It was Senior Sister Miao Tinglian.
Jiang Hao didn’t care who was in the Spirit Herb Garden as long as it wasn’t
Miao Tinglian.
He didn’t want to see her.
Senior Sister Miao Tinglian was very good to him, so he shouldn’t treat her that way, but she was always trying to set him up with other women.
“Senior Sister Miao, how are you?” Jiang Hao said.
Senior Sister Miao Tinglian had healed completely. The danger from the Holy
Master was over.
After all, it was the matter with the Holy Master.
Fortunately, the Heavenly Note Sect had strengthened their security, so it was difficult for the spies to sneak in.
“Are you already in the late stage of the Golden Core Realm?” she asked in disbelief.
“Yeah, I got lucky,” he said.
“How old are you now, Junior Brother Jiang?” Miao Tinglian asked.
“Thirty-eight, I think.” Jiang Hao sighed.
He wasn’t young anymore. He had been only nineteen when he made it to the Foundation Establishment Realm. It seemed like only yesterday. Time passed by so fast.
“Late stage of the Golden Core Realm at thirty-eight?” Miao Tinglian couldn’t believe it. “You’ve caught up to me in cultivation already?”
“Senior Sister, you haven’t had much time to cultivate,” he said.
In fact, Senior Sister Miao Tinglian had very high talent. If she worked hard, she could advance rapidly.
Unfortunately, her progress was too slow because she kept focusing on other unnecessary things.
“That won’t do. The juniors I’ve been meeting aren’t worthy of you. I can’t talk to those with higher cultivation because they won’t hear me out at all. I’ll discuss it with Mu Qi. I plan to advance to the Primordial Spirit Realm in the next few years,” Miao Tinglian said seriously.
Jiang Hao was speechless.
Even with sufficient talent, advancing to the Primordial Spirit Realm in just a few years was unimaginable.
“Is it that unbelievable?” Miao Tinglian asked. “That is the benefit of having a partner. Anyway, it’s not a big deal. Junior Brother, take it slow. If you go too fast, I’ll have to rely even more on Mu Qi’s influence.”
Mu Qi had an inheritance treasure. He was also a True Disciple. His cultivation was not weak.
He had considerable influence within the sect.
“Why are you doing this, Senior Sister Miao?” Jiang Hao asked.
“To find you a partner, of course! It doesn’t matter if the cultivation is weak, but talent and temperament must match yours. Finding a partner for a lifetime is a big deal, and you don’t have much time. I have to keep an eye out,” said Miao Tinglian.
Jiang Hao was touched that she cared for him so much. Unfortunately, he didn’t really want a partner.
His only chance was to advance rapidly so that Miao Tinglian would give up on finding him a match.
After thinking for a moment, Miao Tinglian suddenly asked, “Junior Brother Jiang, what do you think of the immortal ladies from outside the sect?” “Other demonic sects?” Jiang Hao asked.
“How can that be?” Miao Tinglian said solemnly. “Normal demonic sects don’t have anyone suitable for you. With your talent and temperament, you shouldn’t be looking for demonic sects. You should have someone from an immortal sect. I know some people from immortal sects. I’ll send them an invitation, and you can check them out.” Jiang Hao was speechless.
He helplessly went to find Senior Brother Mu Qi.
He hoped that Mu Qi could help him.
“I’m serious, Mu Qi. Let go of me. I only want to talk to him!” said Miao Tinglian as Mu Qi pulled her away.
Jiang Hao quickly walked away.
Senior Sister Miao Tinglian had her heart in the right place, but she was sometimes too nosy.
If he had known, he would have chosen someone else.
While managing the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao also observed the ordinary people.
Everyone seemed okay. There was no apparent problem.
He no longer had to use his appraising ability for small matters.
It was not only because he had sufficient control over his strength but also because of insights into the nameless manual.
More importantly, his cultivation had improved significantly.
If he couldn’t handle the issues in the Spirit Herb Garden, then it would be quite disappointing unless it was someone stronger than him like Lou Mantian.
On the surface, Lou Mantian seemed like he was in the Return to Void Realm, but no one knew how powerful he was.
As the day ended, Jiang Hao prepared to return to his house.
He met Liu Xingchen on the way.
It had been a long time since he had seen him.
Liu Xingchen seemed quite normal, but there was a black aura on him. Within it were three faint figures.
They couldn’t be seen clearly,
From the looks of it, those three hadn’t come out for a long time.
Maybe Liu Xingchen found it boring and didn’t let them out. He needed to find something more interesting.
“Junior Brother Jiang, it’s been very long. I heard you were accused of being involved with spies again?” said Liu Xingchen.
“Yes, but no one came to get me this time,” Jiang Hao said.
He thought that the people from the Law Enforcement Hall would come looking for him, but they completely ignored him.
“The Law Enforcement Hall is very busy. I heard that the people from the
Lawless Tower are once again arresting people everywhere, and the Law Enforcement Hall has to assist. They don’t have time to deal with you. After all, similar incidents happen all the time, and no matter how they investigate, they can’t find any evidence against you. In the Law Enforcement Hall, you have become a figure that no one bothers with anymore,” said Liu Xingchen..
