Chapter 111: The Sudden Appearance Of The Demoness
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Hao was silent on the way back. Some people bumped into him and told him that he was lucky.
...
He thought so too.
The Sect Master had been in seclusion for so long, but she suddenly made a move. Jiang Hao recalled that when Elder Baizhi had given him the armor, she had mentioned that the reward was from someone else.
âWas it the Sect Master who sent the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower to me?â It was only a guess that Jiang Hao had no way of confirming.
Jiang Hao decided that it didnât matter. He couldnât afford to offend the Sect Master or Elder Baizhi.
He returned to his courtyard. Liu Xingchen told him that he was no longer under surveillance. He couldnât leave the sect because of the matter with the Law Enforcement Hall, but there was no other restriction on him.
Jiang Hao fell onto the wooden chair. He took out the Thousand Miles
Teleportation Talisman from his pocket. He couldnât believe that he didnât need it anymore.
Jiang Hao realized that he was not strong enough. He got up and began to clean his courtyard. It wasnât dirty, but he needed to get his mind off of things.
Now that the matter had been solved, he slowly calmed down. He had prepared so many things and imagined all kinds of scenarios. He had been on edge. Suddenly, he was safe again.
He saw that his fingers were trembling slightly. His knowledge and strength were far inferior to the ones he had met today.
Suddenly, a fragrance wafted in the air. It was not the smell of the flowers he had in his courtyard.
He turned to look. He found someone sitting at the wooden table in his courtyard. She sat there casually and watched the Immortal peach tree.
Hong Yuye.
Jiang Hao was surprised. He hadnât expected her to visit today. He had assumed she would have tried to find him after he escaped.
âWhy are you surprised? Are you still not familiar with the scent of my body?â asked Hong Yuye.
âItâs not thatâ Jiang Hao lowered his head. âI⊠The fragrance is different. Itâs a mix of many flowers. â
He was just telling the truth, but his heart raced. Since the Heaven Extinction Gu Poison had no effect when he faced her, he could only rely on his own mind.
Fortunately, he did not make a fool of himself.
Hong Yuye sat quietly by the table. The wind rustled the leaves on the tree.
Jiang Hao eventually calmed down.
âTake care of my flower and follow me to the nearby town when I come to get you,â said Hong Yuye. âOtherwise, youâll not be able to handle my fury.â
Jiang Hao saw her turn into a red shadow and disappear. He was puzzled. She hadnât even inspected the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower like she usually did.
Jiang Hao looked at his hands. They werenât trembling anymore. He took a deep breath and congratulated himself on surviving another day.
He needed to discuss with Liu Xingchen the matter of visiting the nearby town.
Jiang Hao didnât want to face Hong Yuyeâs anger.
At noon, the spirit beast returned home.
âDidnât you leave the mountain?â Jiang Hao sat on the wooden chair.
The spirit beast shook his head nonchalantly. âI came back. In the future, when
I finally decide to go, you should follow me, Master.â
Jiang Hao smiled but didnât say anything. He wasnât sure why the beast had decided to return. It was full of lies on the best of days, after all.
âMaster, will you eat people in the future?â asked the spirit beast. â1 passed by a place on the way down the mountain today. A man threatened to eat a woman. She seemed to be⊠begging. When he told her to go, he seemed⊠upset. I couldnât understand.â
Jiang Hao was speechless. He thought of Hong Yuye for no reason at all.
âDonât eavesdrop on other people,â said Jiang Hao.
âI just heard it⊠accidentally. I wasnât meaning to!â
The Heavenly Note Sect was still a little conservative. Who would do such a thing in broad daylight?
âMaybe the Heavenly Joy PavilionâŠâ
âThen⊠the man was eaten by the woman. Or at least she was trying to. His mouth was in her mouth. His innards were all scattered on the groundâŠâ The spirit beast looked at Jiang Hao. âMaster, you should be careful. Donât let a
woman eat you.â
Jiang Hao was stunned. âWhat in the hell did it actually see?â
âDid she see you?â he asked.
The spirit beast shook its head.
Jiang Hao nodded. If what the beast said was true, then a woman might have killed someone.
If it was a disciple of the Heavenly Note Sect, then it wouldnât be long before the Law Enforcement Hall intervened.
However, who would dare to kill someone in the Heavenly Note Sect?
Jiang Hao was worried that the person might be hiding something. According to Liu Xingchen, the Law Enforcement Hall might use the Heavenly Essence Soul Modeling Mirror to catch the murderer. If that happened, he would get in trouble too.
Jiang Hao decided to visit Liu Xingchen soon. He wanted to find out if the Law Enforcement Hall had found new leads on the murders, and also ask him if he could leave the sect to visit a nearby town.
He wasnât in a hurry. He would advance in a few days and would become stronger.
The next day, Jiang Hao stood at the entrance of his courtyard. From today, he decided to resume his daily routine. He also needed to earn spirit stones. When he arrived at the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao realized that Cheng Chou had been away for more than half a month. He didnât know when he would return.
âGood morning, Junior Brother Jiang,â Miao Tinglian. She had been helping out
in the garden. She had been in the process of planting a bunch of spirit herbs.
âGood morning, Senior Sister Miao,â said Jiang Hao politely.
Miao Tinglian looked genuinely happy to see him, but he didnât know if she had any ulterior motives.
âJunior Brother Jiang, are you free right now? I have something to ask you,â she said. âItâs related to Senior Brother Mu Qi..â
