Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning - Chapter 132

Chapter 132: The Female Demon Comes to My Room

Chen Quan was deeply anxious about Jiang Hao’s arrival.

In his family, he was a strong practitioner, and this time he had received news that a powerful person from a prestigious sect was coming to Tiantu City.

To prevent those people from refusing to visit the mansion, he had specifically booked the entire Yunshang Inn, hoping to greet them.

But before those people arrived, he encountered this terrifying cultivator.

The opponent was decisive and ruthless.

He was severely injured by him, and then the cultivator simply stayed at the inn, which was definitely the act of a Golden Core expert.

Some say that powerful individuals are capricious, and he used to think that to become a powerful individual, one must have a mind as cunning as a demon.

But now, he finally understood why powerful individuals are capricious: because the weak do not require the strong to use their intellect to scheme or flatter; a single strike can end everything.

“Senior, what would you like to ask?”

Chen Quan struggled to stand up.

Even with severe injuries, he had to stand.

Facing such a powerful individual, he couldn’t lie down in peace.

Only then did the woman beside him come over to support him.

Jiang Hao saw how the other party was behaving and felt somewhat foreign, but he said nothing, only reflecting on how his Golden Core cultivation was actually stronger than many others.

At the Tianyin Sect, he was suppressed by many.

The same was true in the major sects.

After coming out, he found that a complete Golden Core could rival many people, except for those from the big sects, as Nascent Soul practitioners were rare.

And he, if all went well, could advance to Nascent Soul within a year.

At most, he would be twenty-four years old; at least, twenty-three.

It was unbelievable.

Such a young Nascent Soul, Jiang Hao himself felt a bit worried when he imagined it.

Worried that he wouldn’t be able to control his inner self, leading to arrogance and attracting trouble.

Strength unconsciously gives one the confidence to speak, subtly changing a person’s perception.

A slight carelessness could lead to underestimating others.

After reminding himself, Jiang Hao looked at the middle-aged man who was now standing properly and calmly asked.

“What’s your name?”

“I am Chen Quan, I offended you yesterday, please punish me, senior,” Chen Quan bowed respectfully.

“Friend Chen?”

Jiang Hao wasn’t concerned with the man’s words and continued.

“Is there a cultivator’s market in Tiantu City?”

“Yes, it’s in a forest to the west of the city. There’s an array barrier there, but the market opens once a month, and the next opening is tomorrow,” Chen Quan quickly replied.

Jiang Hao nodded and then asked.

“Who is the strongest in Tiantu City?”

“There are two cultivator families in Tiantu City; the strongest are the two family heads, both at the early stage of Golden Core,” Chen Quan said.

“Are there any spiritual mines nearby?” Jiang Hao asked again.

“I’ve heard there are some in Luoyuan City.”

Chen Quan pondered for a moment and then continued, “But it’s quite far from Tiantu City.”

Jiang Hao nodded, not asking anything further.

After thanking him, he stood up to leave, and the people inside felt as if they had escaped death.

When he reached the entrance of the inn, Jiang Hao extended his senses to survey the terrain.

Soon, he was slowly walking down the street, hearing many hawkers along the way.

When he came across a stall selling roasted chicken, he stopped, looking at the crispy outside and tender inside of the chicken, he reminisced about the past.

He must have seen it before but couldn’t afford it.

When wandering around Luo City, he hadn’t noticed anyone selling it.

After standing there for a moment, he moved on.

I won’t eat it; I’ll leave it as a memory.

Afterward, he walked to the residential area.

He spent the whole day wandering through the residential area and the surrounding streets, visiting places with many people and those with few, observing the people around him carefully each time.

In the evening, he returned to the Yunshang Inn with some regret.

“Maybe they’re not in this city.”

Jiang Hao murmured to himself before returning to his room, waiting for tomorrow to go to the western market.

He had also gone there today.

Indeed, there was an array in place.

But just as he opened the door, he saw Hong Yuye sitting in a chair in his room.

“Senior, why are you here?”

He closed the door, somewhat surprised.

At that moment, Hong Yuye glanced at him, and immediately a terrifying force manifested.

Jiang Hao was slammed heavily against the wall.

The sudden attack left Jiang Hao, who had just returned, somewhat stunned.

He hadn’t done anything after all.

“Are you puzzled?”

Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao, who was standing properly, and calmly asked.

“How long do you think a pot of tea can last?”

Jiang Hao was taken aback.

Because in Luo City, Hong Yuye always stayed in her own room, and he never disturbed her, thinking there was no need to pay attention.

Now that he thought about it, in Luo City, Hong Yuye was researching the Secret Whisper Slate.

Now, there is no third piece of the Secret Whisper Slate.

Still, for someone of her level, going hungry for a day wasn’t a big deal, though he didn’t dare say it out loud, he could only bow his head and admit his mistake.

…….

“It’s getting dark.”

Fang Jin complained as she looked at the sky, “It’s all because of that demon beast’s delay.”

“The appearance of such a strong demon beast nearby is clearly abnormal. It seems that Tiantu City has also become much more dangerous recently,” Bai Qiong sighed.

Their group was supposed to have arrived at Tiantu City the day before yesterday.

But due to some delays along the way, they were postponed until today.

“Killing the demon beast did yield quite a few good things, but I wonder if it will startle the snake,” Fang Jin said as he walked ahead.

They were walking on the main road, and ahead was the Yunshang Inn, where they planned to stay.

“Are the elders coming over?” Bai Qiong asked.

“Not yet, they seem to have been stopped by the Tiansheng Sect,” Fang Jin shook his head.

Tiansheng Sect, hearing this name also gave them a headache.

It wasn’t that the Tiansheng Sect was particularly powerful.

Compared to Mingyue Sect, Tiansheng Sect was actually quite average.

But the other party was fearless, and their way of thinking was different from the norm.

Almost like madness.

If they got involved, not to mention their Mingyue Sect, even the Haotian Sect would feel troubled, of course, only those who were not strong enough would feel troubled.

After a while, they arrived at the Yunshang Inn and as soon as they entered, they saw a middle-aged man being supported as he stood in the lobby, seemingly there to welcome them.

“The three of you must be the immortals from Mingyue Sect. I am Chen Quan, and I have come specially to greet the three immortals,” Chen Quan said respectfully, with several people behind him also bowing in salute.

Fang Jin looked at the building curiously.

“I remember your people said that you booked the entire Yunshang Inn, but it seems there are quite a few people staying here.”

Hearing this, Chen Quan bowed his head somewhat embarrassedly.

The others also did not dare to speak directly.

This surprised Fang Jin and the others.

However, they did not need to book the place as it would be too high-profile.

It would inevitably attract unnecessary trouble.

“Is Brother Chen injured?” Fang Jin asked.

“Just a minor issue,” Chen Quan said with a forced smile.

“I was injured by a demon beast earlier, it’s nothing serious. The rooms have been prepared for the three of you, and if you need anything, just command us. We have also helped to inquire about the matter of Zuo Lan, and we will bring news tonight. We have also made some progress on other matters.”

“Then we thank Brother Chen. If you don’t mind, I can help Brother Chen with some cultivation matters,” Fang Jin said warmly.

Since the other party had helped them so much, it was only right to offer some guidance.

Hearing this, Chen Quan and the others were overjoyed.

That night, Fang Jin heard someone knocking on the door.

Opening it, he saw his two Junior Sister “We’ve found out.”

After closing the door, Bai Qiong spoke in a low voice,

“The one who injured the Zhen family is right next door to us.”
