Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning - Chapter 119

Chapter 119: Anger Strikes Again

Mining.

It was something Jiang Hao had often thought about recently.

If he had been mining all this time, he might have been able to reach the Nascent Soul stage by now.

Unfortunately, to attempt reaching the Nascent Soul stage now, he would need to wait another year.

If he were to leave for a few months, even a year might not be enough. That was the difference between mining and not mining.

Sometimes he wondered what it would have been like if he had been sent to mine right after he started cultivating.

Perhaps he would be at the mid or late Nascent Soul stage by now.

Maybe even stronger, but then… he wouldn’t have a way to conceal his cultivation level.

That wouldn’t be good either.

The Primordial Heart Sutra was something he got from cultivating the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.

Mining would hardly produce golden bubbles, let alone purple-gold ones.

However, being able to mine now would be a great opportunity.

Then, against his true feelings, he shook his head.

“Senior’s matters are more important. I don’t like mining.”

“Lies upon lies.”

Hong Yuye stood up and looked at the man in front of her.

“Get ready. You’ll leave with me in seven days.”

“May I know where senior plans to go? Is there anything I need to prepare in advance?” Jiang Hao asked.

He had already mentally prepared himself for the eventual departure.

Moreover, the Thousand Li Teleportation Talisman is already prepared, everything else is fine.

His condition is also at its peak, except for the inability to use the divine ability Clear Heart and Pure Mind, everything is good.

“You’ll know when the time comes. As for what you need to prepare?” Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao with a cold smile and said.

“If you lack this or that, you know the consequences.”

Should I consider it myself? Jiang Hao felt a bit of a headache at the moment.

Since he started his cultivation journey, he hadn’t really been to towns much and didn’t know what he needed to prepare.

Moreover, he had no idea what Hong Yuye was planning to do.

Thinking about preparations was a bit troublesome.

He could only try to probe for some information.

“It seems like it’s about to bloom.”

Hong Yuye sat on a wooden chair, looking at the flat peach tree beside him and said.

At this moment, the flat peach tree was already as tall as two people and taller than the surrounding wall, with flower buds already appearing.

In a few more months, it would bear fruit.

It should mature in four or five months.

Jiang Hao glanced at the flat peach tree but didn’t answer the question. Instead, he asked curiously:

“Senior, how long do you plan to have the junior accompany you?”

“At least one month, at most four months. Any problems?” Hong Yuye fixed his gaze on Jiang Hao.

“No, none.” Jiang Hao said, forcing himself to be brave.

He could only be away for three months; four months would be difficult.

But he felt that if he voiced this, it would easily anger the other party.

“Make some tea.”

Seeing that Jiang Hao’s attitude was acceptable, Hong Yuye didn’t care about the rest.

But upon hearing the request for tea, Jiang Hao was stunned.

Last night, he and the rabbit drank merrily, finishing all the tea.

In the end, he reluctantly brewed some ordinary tea.

Hong Yuye drank it, and then…

Bang!

Jiang Hao was blasted against the wall by a powerful force, feeling sore all over.

He now understood that one of the things he needed to prepare for the next few days was definitely tea leaves.

At this moment, Hong Yuye stood up, his gaze turning to Jiang Hao.

“In seven days, at noon, where do you plan to wait for me?”

“Outside of Tianyin Sect.”

“Good, if I don’t see you, you know what the consequences will be.”

“The junior understands.”

“During this period, take good care of my flowers. If there’s any mistake, you will also bear my wrath.”

“Yes.”

After a moment of silence, Hong Yuye spoke again:

“Use your divine ability from before one more time.”

Jiang Hao had no choice but to appraise Hong Yuye again.

Of course, he used a hidden method to make the divine ability’s consumption negligible.

But the appraisal result was the same as before.

Still a name with a question mark.

“I’ve used it.”

He looked at the other party as he answered, trying to discern from Hong Yuye’s expression whether he had noticed anything.

However, he got nothing.

After Hong Yuye finished the tea in his cup, he disappeared from the spot like a gust of wind.

You could at least put down the teacup, Jiang Hao sighed.

Although it was just ordinary tea ware, he had bought it with money.

He always felt that Hong Yuye had a habit of taking things.

But he also needed to prepare, as he had to earn some spirit stones in the next few days.

Speaking of which, today was somewhat quiet.

“Logically, after Hong Yuye leaves, there should be screams, why are there none today?”

Jiang Hao was puzzled.

After thinking about it, he realized the rabbit was gone.

Curious, he looked outside and then saw the rabbit floating on the water surface, drifting away with the river current.

It seemed to be struggling to get out of the water.

Probably because today it drooled over the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and was seen by Hong Yuye, being alive was already its good fortune.

Later, while Jiang Hao was recuperating, he often made talismans.

He also updated his divine ability Hidden Spirit Manifestation, re-concealing his current strength.

Moon Slash and Mountain Suppressor were also re-recorded on his wrist guard.

Every day he grew a bit stronger, so re-concealing his spirit and re-recording were inevitable.

Five days later, Jiang Hao had made quite a few talismans.

He also sold most of them.

He earned over eight hundred spirit stones, and with what he had on him, he now had a total of one thousand and one spirit stones.

This was due to good luck, as he had encountered several Foundation Establishment Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters who needed a large number of talismans.

They bought many talismans at a market discount of 15% off.

The discount was a bit low, but the quantity made up for it.

Leng Tian Senior Sister hadn’t visited recently; he had given her quite a few talismans last time, so she probably didn’t need any.

“The day after tomorrow is the departure. I’ll buy some tea leaves today, then go accept the mission.”

He had already explained the matter of going out to his master.

The master didn’t say much, just nodded in agreement.

Senior Sister Miao was surprised when she found out but didn’t ask further.

Recently, she hadn’t asked about Mu Qi Senior Brother anymore, and occasionally, she could see them working together in the spiritual medicine fields.

It seemed they were getting along well.

That’s probably for the best.

Otherwise, the entire Spiritual Medicine Garden would suffer.

Two Golden Core cultivators frequently appearing—if they took a dislike to each other, it would be a pain for Jiang Hao, let alone anyone else.

At this moment, Jiang Hao arrived at the Xuelian Pavilion.

After hesitating for a short while, he purchased some fragrant Snow After Spring for one and fifty spirit stones.

It was half the price of Red Sleeve Fragrance.

The main reason was that he was going to be away for a long time, and if he ran out, he would be the one to suffer.

It made more sense to buy something decent and not too expensive.

Fifty spirit stones were a fortune to him, but it was cheap compared to Red Sleeve Fragrance.

In the end, he bought thirteen maces, which should last him for some time, spending six hundred spirit stones.

There was a deal—buy twelve maces, get one free.

Otherwise, Jiang Hao had planned to buy only ten maces.

He didn’t intend to spend the remaining five hundred, as he would need spirit stones for his trip.

It’s always good to be prepared.

Afterward, he went to the Enforcement Peak.

“Recruiting disciples?” Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised when he received the task.

He had thought it would be something like dealing with traitors.

But it turned out to be about recruiting disciples.

“This person has caught the eye of a major sect and will be taken to an immortal sect in the coming days. The chances of Junior Brother bringing him back are very low. If you can wait, then wait until this person is taken away before accepting the task to leave.”

The Senior Sister giving him the task kindly advised.

“No, this one is fine.”

Jiang Hao declined, then curiously asked, “Does Senior Sister know which major sect it is?”

“Mingyue Sect, its strength is somewhat close to that of the Haotian Sect.”
