Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning - Chapter 30

Chapter 30: Junior Brother Jiang Might Stay in the Demon Cavern Forever

Roar!

Another demon appeared.

Just as Jiang Hao was about to make his move, Lou Feng of Tianhuan Pavilion had already struck.

A single slash.

Boom!

The demon was killed on the spot.

Jiang Hao could only watch.

“Junior Brother Jiang seems very keen on killing demons, but I am too. I just wonder who can kill more,” Lou Feng said with a smile as he looked at Jiang Hao.

His smile was fierce.

Jiang Hao had appraised him on his second day here.

This man was not here for Tianhuan Pavilion; he was solely here for Senior Sister Yun Ruo.

He was madly in love with Senior Sister Yun Ruo.

For reasons unknown.

Now that Yun Ruo had been killed, he naturally sought revenge.

“Why is Junior Brother not talking?” Lou Feng’s eyes widened, showing a ferocious and bloodthirsty look.

‘The hatred in him is getting stronger, and he could easily lose control,’ Jiang Hao thought with some concern.

Not only was he worried, but Zheng Shijiu was too. If Lou Feng lost his sanity, he might attack everyone present.

And unfortunately, the man was at the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

Xin Yuyue also sensed it. Even though she could restrain him, the gap in strength was too large, leaving her without an advantage.

At this moment, Qing Xue suddenly spoke up,

“It’s been a long time since we’ve seen demons in groups. There probably aren’t many left. Let’s split up.”

Hearing this suggestion, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Even Jiang Hao felt the same.

He was very concerned that Lou Feng might suddenly attack.

If it became known that he was also at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, Qing Xue would definitely act to eliminate him together.

He was close to accumulating enough cultivation, and he couldn’t afford any conflicts at this moment.

Splitting up was dangerous, but as long as he could hide for a while, he could strive for a breakthrough.

Zheng Shijiu knew about the grudge between Jiang Hao and Tianhuan Pavilion, and he didn’t want to get involved.

The risk was too high.

“Does anyone have objections?” Qing Xue asked again.

“What does Junior Brother Jiang think?” Zheng Shijiu turned to ask Jiang Hao.

“This is good,” Jiang Hao said calmly.

His calm demeanor impressed Zheng Shijiu.

To remain so composed at a time like this.

Lou Feng, on the other hand, showed a smile, seemingly finally able to let loose.

“Which direction does Junior Brother want to go?” Zheng Shijiu let Jiang Hao choose first, and then he added.

“Let’s not go in the same direction. That way, we can clear them out faster.”

After agreeing on a final meeting place, Jiang Hao headed straight into the interior, being the first to choose had its pros and cons.

The advantage was that with Zheng Shijiu watching, the others wouldn’t follow him, but the downside was that everyone knew which direction he was going.

But as long as he was fast enough, there would only be advantages.

Once he was sure the others couldn’t see him, he changed direction and sped away, his strength as a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator fully displayed, even surpassing the speed expected at his level.

After Jiang Hao left, Zheng Shijiu looked towards the two from Tianhuan Pavilion.

Without any fuss, they each chose different directions.

As for where they disappeared to, no one knew.

……

“Senior Brother Zheng, I heard you’re not happy with the people from Tianhuan Pavilion. Why didn’t you disrupt their plans this time?” Xin Yuyue asked with a smile.

“It’s not that I don’t want to disrupt them,” Zheng Shijiu sighed.

“One is at the peak of Foundation Establishment, and the other is at the late stage. I’m no match for them.”

“Tianhuan Pavilion really has no shame,” Xin Yuyue said with disdain.

“Tianhuan Pavilion is angry, but Duanqing Cliff isn’t too emotional, so this time Tianhuan Pavilion is bound to come out on top. Moreover, I heard that Junior Brother Jiang advanced by relying on heavenly materials and earthly treasures, so he’s just an ordinary inner disciple. If he were a true disciple, it wouldn’t be like this,” Zheng Shijiu said with some regret.

“That’s true,” Xin Yuyue didn’t say much more, but she was curious about those three.

“We probably can’t all return together in the end, right?”

“Mm, most likely only four of us. Junior Brother Jiang is probably going to stay in the Demon Cavern forever,” Zheng Shijiu said.

“Is there no chance he can escape?” Xin Yuyue asked.

“Probably not,” Zheng Shijiu sensed and said.

“Lou Feng of Tianhuan Pavilion is agitated and has already headed in Jiang Hao’s direction.”

After a pause, Zheng Shijiu added, “Junior Sister, are you going to act with me, or on your own?”

“Thank you for the kind offer, Senior Brother, but I’d like to gain some experience on my own,” Xin Yuyue declined with a smile.

“Alright, see you in a month,” Zheng Shijiu said and then chose a direction.

Tianhuan Pavilion were the bad guys, but Bingyue Valley wasn’t necessarily good either.

Xin Yuyue didn’t want to put herself in danger.

As for Jiang Hao’s situation, she was powerless to help.

Weak in cultivation and having offended a powerful enemy, perhaps it was better to die sooner rather than suffer later.

……

Jiang Hao moved as quickly as possible.

He didn’t engage the demons he encountered, intentionally leaving them be, so as not to be easily discovered.

The next day.

He finally stopped, settling by the side of a lake.

After rushing for a day, he had probably bought himself quite a bit of time.

Now, what he needed to do was to kill demons to obtain enough cultivation and vital energy.

Then he would try to advance to the peak of Foundation Establishment, otherwise, he wouldn’t stand a chance against Qing Xue of Tianhuan Pavilion.

Roar!

At that moment, a demon burst forth from the lake.

It possessed the strength of the mid Foundation Establishment stage.

Without hesitation, Jiang Hao slew it with a single strike.

He then picked up the bubble.

【Cultivation+1】

“Just one.”

He didn’t linger and continued deeper into the area.

However, every time he saw the area where the stars fell from the sky, he felt a sense of awe.

He dared not approach that place.

Yet, the demons here were indeed becoming scarcer.

It took him three days to barely gather enough bubbles.

【Vital Energy+1】

After killing a demon, Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

Because both his vital energy and cultivation were full.

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

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

“It’s time to find a place to advance.”

…….

Elsewhere, Lou Feng saw the corpse of the demon.

He walked along the lakeside, looking down with a sullen chuckle.

“I’ve found you.”
