Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning - Chapter 104

Chapter 104: Want to Rob My Spiritual Medicine Garden? Only If You Let Me Go Mining

In the Spiritual Medicine Garden, Jiang Hao observed the surrounding spiritual medicines.

Those sent from the Hundred Bones Forest, he had already checked carefully.

On the surface, they all seemed to be spiritual medicines that aided cultivation, and they were the same at a deeper level.

But how they could form a spirit-sealing technique when together, he had no clue.

It was beyond his understanding.

Jiang Hao had to admit that no matter where, there would always be such remarkable beings.

Especially in the Demon Sect, without any constraints, these people experimented without any pressure.

Even if they couldn’t experiment within the sect, what about outside the sect?

He had once heard of a city that encountered a strange demonic beast, and in the end, the entire city was destroyed.

Looking at it this way, it might also be some people from the Demon Sect experimenting with something.

Or perhaps simply feeding their own spirit pets.

……

In the afternoon.

When Jiang Hao was thinking of leaving, Miao Tinglian suddenly found him.

“Senior Sister, is there something you need?” Jiang Hao asked.

Hearing him say “Senior Sister,” Miao Tinglian smiled and said,

“No wonder some Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters from Duanqing Cliff either don’t know about you or feel that you’re inconspicuous. After all, you don’t seem to want to upset anyone.”

Jiang Hao kept his eyes low and did not speak.

In fact, Senior Sisters and Senior Brothers above the Golden Core level were rarely encountered.

Most of them are still Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters at the Foundation Establishment stage.

“By the way, I’m a new disciple. Is the Spiritual Medicine Garden supposed to be handed over to me to manage?” Miao Tinglian asked.

“No need, Senior Sister should focus on cultivating diligently. I can take care of this place,” Jiang Hao shook his head and refused.

Taking over the Spiritual Medicine Garden wasn’t impossible, but at the very least, he should be sent to mine.

“Actually, I have some research on spiritual medicines. Are you sure you don’t want me to manage a part of the Spiritual Medicine Garden?” Miao Tinglian hinted.

However, Jiang Hao still shook his head.

Miao Tinglian didn’t insist and turned to leave, adding,

“Since that’s the case, consider the favor of you introducing me to the sect repaid. If you’re feeling unwell, I advise you to try moving to a new place.”

After saying that, she left for good.

Jiang Hao looked at the spiritual medicines in the Hundred Bones Forest and thought to himself that Senior Sister Miaoting’s expertise in spiritual medicines wasn’t low either.

She could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with these medicines.

He just didn’t know if she was acquainted with Senior Sister Ming Yi.

Following the stream upwards, Jiang Hao returned to his wooden hut.

He looked at the courtyard stabilized by the formation and couldn’t sense anything.

That meant very few people knew he was growing the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower inside, and it was hard to see that he had broken the sealing technique.

“If Bai Ye finds out, I wonder if there will be any new actions.”

Back in the courtyard, the rabbit that had been silently following him exclaimed:

“Master, I feel so comfortable at home. You won’t drive me out in the future, will you?”

“As long as you’re not a big demon, everything is negotiable,” Jiang Hao reminded.

“Master really likes to joke. How could a little rabbit become a big demon?” the rabbit said with a laugh, waving its paw.

Then it lay down beside the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower, admiring the flower.

Jiang Hao didn’t mind and went back to his room to concentrate and calm his spirit for a moment before starting to make talismans.

He still had one thousand and seven spirit stones.

Once he gathered five thousand, he could hang up the rabbit.

……

Seven days later.

Cheng Chou got up early in the morning, intending to go to the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

But as soon as he stepped out, he saw Xiao Li standing at his doorstep.

This made him a bit worried.

This Junior Sister was really something.

Some people who couldn’t stand her had tried to harm her in various ways.

But it was all in vain. She found out and beat them one by one.

Being beaten in the outer sect didn’t attract much attention; even injuries weren’t a big deal.

Everyone had to swallow their pride.

Moreover, they all realized that this Xiao Li Junior Sister was extraordinarily talented.

If she caught the attention of the inner sect, those with lesser talent would be the ones to suffer.

After all, some of the outer sect managers didn’t dare to provoke her.

“Junior Sister Xiao Li, are you looking for me?” Cheng Chou asked with a smile.

“I want to see Senior Brother Jiang,” Xiao Li immediately said.

She already knew Jiang Hao’s name but didn’t know how to find him.

She needed someone to lead her.

And Cheng Chou was familiar with Jiang Hao, which she knew.

So she came to him.

Hearing that she was looking for Senior Brother Jiang, Cheng Chou understood that Junior Sister Xiao Li wanted to go back.

He didn’t say much and led her to the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

On the way, he kindly said,

“Junior Sister, do you want to wait a couple more days? That way, Jiang Senior Brother can let you out.”

“Why should I wait a couple more days?” Xiao Li asked curiously.

But before Cheng Chou could answer, she continued:

“Jiang Senior Brother said that as soon as I started, he would let me go home to visit. I have already started.”

Hearing this, Cheng Chou suddenly stopped, then looked at Xiao Li in disbelief.

“What’s wrong?” Xiao Li was puzzled.

“Nothing, nothing,” Cheng Chou said, shaking his head numbly.

He remembered what Jiang Hao had said a few days ago, telling him to prepare to send Junior Sister Xiao Li back home.

At that time, he thought Jiang Hao was just letting her go on purpose.

Now it seemed that Senior Brother had known about Xiao Li Junior Sister’s talent.

She was a genius.

…….

Looking at Xiao Li, who was now at the first layer of Qi Refining, Jiang Hao had his suspicions but still couldn’t help but marvel.

‘The Dragon Race is truly powerful.’

This was even when she refused to read books; otherwise, it wouldn’t have taken so many days.

Not to mention that she was just recovering her cultivation.

Seeing others advance so quickly, Jiang Hao also felt the pressure.

He needed to advance as soon as possible.

He subconsciously looked at his panel.

【Vital Energy: 97/100 (can be cultivated)】

【Cultivation: 90/100 (can be cultivated)】

In another month, he could be on par with Liu Xingchen’s cultivation.

He just didn’t know how far behind he was from Bai Ye.

However, facing the people from Xuantian Sect, being at the full completion of the Golden Core was completely insufficient.

Putting aside these worries, he said to Xiao Li.

“Does anyone know you’ve advanced?”

“No, not at all,” Xiao Li shook her head.

Jiang Hao nodded slightly, things were now simpler: “Pack up, let Cheng Chou take you back for a visit. I’ll notify the outer sect management.”

Neither of them was valued by the sect, so Jiang Hao letting them leave wouldn’t cause any issues.

Afterward, he gave Cheng Chou five spirit stones, along with some talismans.

He handed over two Hundred Thousand Swords Talismans, three Healing Talismans, and a bunch of Swift Travel Talismans.

Seeing so many talismans, Cheng Chou was stunned. He had never held such expensive items in his life.

“Senior Brother Jiang,” Xiao Li raised her hand to ask.

“Will I be able to see my grandma and grandpa again in the future?”

“You can visit them once after each promotion,” Jiang Hao replied.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Li jumped up excitedly.

After she left, Jiang Hao turned to Cheng Chou and said, “When you go, check on the health of Xiao Li’s grandparents.”

Hearing this, Cheng Chou was shocked and cautiously said,

“Does Senior Brother mean to have Junior Sister Xiao Li cut off her worldly attachments as soon as possible?”

(TLN: He thought Jiang Hao was asking him to kill them.)

Jiang Hao was taken aback; he looked at Cheng Chou and didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Everyone thought he was a pushover because he was nice.

However, Cheng Chou doesn’t see him as a nice guy; not only is he not nice, but he is also ruthless.

“Don’t overthink it, and don’t do anything unnecessary,” Jiang Hao clarified, worried he might misunderstand.

“I just want you to check on their health and, if possible, help them live a little longer.”

There were no good people in the Demon Sect, and Jiang Hao didn’t consider himself a good person either.

It’s just that some things happened to touch his heart.

Xiao Li probably hadn’t thought about life and death separation, right?

It’s better if that kind of pain comes later.
