Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning - Chapter 379

Chapter 379: Senior Sister is Actually Quite Reasonable

Looking at her appearance, Jiang Hao remembered the person he had encountered on his way to the Lawless Tower.

It was the fairy who had been intercepted.

It seemed that not encountering her while flying on his sword over the years had been lucky.

After setting down the outer disciple, he leaped to Cheng Chou’s side.

“Wow, you damaged my fairy dress, and you still call for people?” Fairy Yi Lian said with a cold laugh.

Cheng Chou, seeing Jiang Hao, immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly recounted what had happened.

He was flying on his sword when she suddenly bumped into him.

The impact was so strong that he instantly fell off the cliff.

Although he wasn’t seriously hurt, most of the spiritual medicines were destroyed.

“Please, can you be reasonable? You blocked my way while I was flying on my sword, causing my fairy dress to be damaged. Why don’t you mention that?”

Fairy Yi Lian said, looking at the spiritual medicines, “Moreover, the spiritual medicines were in your hands. Did I reach out and damage them? If you didn’t protect them well, how can you say I’m the one who damaged them? What kind of logic is that?”

“But it was you who bumped into me, causing the loss of the spiritual medicine,” Cheng Chou tried to explain with all his might.

“Your logic… If you hadn’t been standing there, would I have bumped into you? Fine, let’s say I did bump into you. According to your logic, you shouldn’t blame me; you should blame the person who forged the spiritual sword. If he hadn’t forged the spiritual sword, none of this would have happened. That’s your logic, not mine,” Fairy Yi Lian said.

“You…” Cheng Chou suddenly didn’t know what to say.

The other party was simply being unreasonable.

But after all, he was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, while the person before him was far beyond the late stage.

“Does Senior Sister think the fault lies with us?” Jiang Hao asked.

“No, you have more people, so the fault is mine. Are you happy if I take the blame? You all should leave,” Fairy Yi Lian said sarcastically.

“We should leave?” Cheng Chou was stunned.

“I’ve already said it’s my fault, what more do you want?” Fairy Yi Lian challenged.

“These spiritual medicines are worth one thousand eight hundred spirit stones,” Cheng Chou said.

“So what? What does that have to do with me? Who told you not to protect them well?” Fairy Yi Lian said coldly.

“May I have a word with Senior Sister in private?” Jiang Hao asked politely.

“I’m supposed to attend Senior Brother Qian Chen’s experience sharing session. Will you take responsibility if I’m delayed?” Fairy Yi Lian asked.

“I will compensate Senior Sister,” Jiang Hao said calmly.

Hearing this, Fairy Yi Lian laughed and said, “Alright, let’s talk over there. I’m curious about what you have to say.”

Fairy Yi Lian pointed to the other side of the cliff.

She was curious about what this person would say to her.

If it were someone with a higher cultivation level than hers, she naturally wouldn’t go.

But everyone was at the same level of cultivation.

She was not weak among her peers.

Especially since she already had the ability to advance to the Golden Core stage.

Now she was just one Heaven Replenishing Pill short.

Then the two of them went to the opposite side of the cliff.

The area was shrouded in mist.

“Speak,” Fairy Yi Lian immediately activated the defense of her robe.

Even someone at the peak of Foundation Establishment would have a hard time breaking through.

Watching her actions, Jiang Hao remained calm.

He then initiated an appraisal.

Foundation Establishment complete, Yanyun Peak inner disciple.

That was all there was to it.

There was nothing particularly special about her.

It seemed to be her true nature.

From all aspects, she was close to reaching the Golden Core stage.

Despite being annoying and having a personality that seemed destined to lead her down many difficult paths, perhaps even a short life, she was living well and advancing quickly in her cultivation.

“Senior Sister doesn’t think she’s responsible for the spiritual medicine?” Jiang Hao’s voice was indifferent.

“You dropped it yourselves, what does that have to do with me?” Fairy Yi Lian scoffed.

“But that’s one thousand eight hundred worth of spiritual medicine. Junior Brother Cheng Chou only gets twenty spirit stones a month. That’s only two hundred forty a year. It would take him eight years to pay off one thousand eight hundred, and even if he took on missions, it would take three to four years. Without risking his life and with some good luck to stay alive, it would still take over a year,” Jiang Hao said calmly.

“What does that have to do with me? Should I give spirit stones just because he’s pitiful? Why don’t you give spirit stones if you feel sorry for someone? Since it’s his fault, he should bear the responsibility. Who else is there to blame?” Fairy Yi Lian said.

Jiang Hao looked at her, his voice deep:

“Senior Sister makes sense. Whoever is at fault should bear the consequences. However, I believe that Senior Sister is the instigator of this incident. So I hope Senior Sister can compensate with one thousand eight hundred spirit stones.”

“Just you?” Fairy Yi Lian sneered.

“You say it’s my fault and it’s my fault?”

As her words fell, a cold light flashed.

A long spear surged out, stabbing towards the magical treasure.

Fairy Yi Lian was surprised and quickly became quite frightened.

Her defenses shattered in an instant.

The spear reached her body with lightning speed before she could even think of what to do.

Thud.

The spear pierced through her, carrying her backward.

Boom!

She was nailed to the stone wall with one strike.

“You…”

She stared at the man before her, somewhat astonished.

However, a blade was raised, slashing towards her neck.

As the cultivation of Foundation Establishment complete surged, she detached from the stone wall, rolling away with the long spear.

But then a sword pierced her thigh.

A cry of pain rang out.

The sword pinned her to the ground.

Jiang Hao walked over, holding the Half-Moon blade, his cold gaze fixed on the disheveled Senior Sister on the ground, then slowly pulled out the long spear.

Blood spilled everywhere.

A dull sound echoed.

“Does Senior Sister think what I’m saying makes sense?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Y-Yes, it makes sense,” Fairy Yi Lian said, her face filled with terror.

“What about the compensation?”

“I-I’ll compensate.”

“Does Senior Sister have spirit stones?”

“Yes, yes.”

“That’s good, Senior Sister is still reasonable to talk to.”

“…”

Fairy Yi Lian felt fear, as the ruthlessness of the person before her was somewhat beyond her expectations.

Jiang Hao collected the compensation and then applied a Healing Talisman to the other party.

After letting the other party deal with it themselves, he left.

He needed to prepare spirit medicine again.

However, this action was likely to have repercussions.

He didn’t know what cultivation level that Qian Chen Senior Brother had.

Or what his identity was.

Whether he would take action or not.

He needed to clarify this to deal with any subsequent situations.

He couldn’t possibly kill Fairy Yi Lian front of everyone to eliminate future troubles.

The Hall of Enforcement was no joke; if he killed a fellow sect member, he would directly involve the connections of the Lawless Tower.

It was highly probable that he could come out alive, but he wouldn’t be able to retain his cultivation level.

Then he would be sent to the mines.

Thinking of this, Jiang Hao paused; actually, it might not be a bad thing.

Unfortunately, he had already offended Tianhuan Pavilion, as well as Luoxia Sect and Tiansheng Sect.

Once he entered the mines, there would definitely be people who would take action against him.

At that time, he would have no ability to protect himself.

……

After a short while.

He arrived at the Enforcement Peak.

This place was where disciples from various peaks gathered to take on missions.

There might be news about Qian Chen.

He also wanted to see what missions were available.

Soon, he stopped in front of a mission, quite surprised.

“Organize the Scripture Pavilion library, requires Foundation Establishment cultivation level, people from the Candlelight Alchemy Court lineage are not wanted, preferably someone with some merits.”

These were normal requirements, but what really surprised him was that the mission was signed by Hua Le.

It’s like finding something without even looking for it.

That’s probably the idea.

Without hesitation, he took on the mission.

However, it seemed that they needed more than just one or two people.

And there was a screening process, with rather strict recruitment conditions.

“I should be able to get in.”

Hua Le knew him, and also knew about the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.

The other party couldn’t ask directly, but now that he had come to them, there was no reason for them not to want him.

So how could he get the other party to actively find someone to teach him various languages?
