THE CULTIVATION OF BESIDE DEVIL CULTIVATOR
181: Jiang Hao Tian Found
In the Hundred Flowers Lake, a light drizzle.
Rain fell on the pavilion. The tea cups are placed in a corner to hold rainwater.
Inside the pavilion, Hong Yuye sat at the stone table and subconsciously stared at the rain outside.
“Sect Master.”
A figure in white clothes came down and bowed to him.
“Secte Sacred Heavenly Restless.”
Hong Yuye set his sights on Baizhi.
“That's because of my incompetence.” Baizhi knelt in fear. There had been too much trouble in the Heavenly Note Sect lately, and he felt it was all his fault.
"What's the problem?" Hong Yuye asked calmly.
“The Devil's nest is shaking, and the demons are swarming. Right now, they have fallen into our trap. Once the treasures of their race appeared, they would make a move. Everything is under control for now. When they attack, should we finish them off, or should we teach them a lesson and let them go?”
“That's your decision,” said Hong Yuye. "What else?"
“People from the Heavenly Saint Sect are very active these days. It seemed like they were eyeing Jiang Hao. They believed that he knew about the secret treasure in the mine. They might still have spies here. We're investigating it. We have also observed Azure Mountain. They seemed to have given up on the Heavenly Fragrant Dao Flower.”
Baizhi did not ask him anything about dealing with the Heavenly Saint Sect. That's his responsibility. As long as the sect is unaffected, everything will be fine.
Unfortunately, they don't lie. Baizhi suspects they know of the matter in the Devil's Nest and is trying to sabotage everything. “What do you think of the Heavenly Sacred Sect?” Hong Yuye asked.
“They are very paranoid and fanatical,” Baizhi said.
“What if they planned this to trick you? Maybe they want your attention distracted with this so they can take greater action.”
Baizhi was sweating coldly. What could they possibly do?
“Let's talk about something else.” Hong Yuye did not want to discuss it further.
“The Heavenly Fragrant Dao Flower grows well. Jiang Hao was absent for three months last year. Although it was difficult to ascertain whether he was a traitor, it was clear he was hiding some secrets. When he returned from his journey, he brought a disciple named Chu Chuan with him. I tried to observe this child to find out the whereabouts of Jiang Hao for three months,” Baizhi said.
“I found out that he is a young lord who fell and is related to the Bright One
The new disciple of the Moon Sect. It is impossible to determine the exact location. Afterwards, I had people investigate the Bright Moon Sect. I found traces of them in several cities. I can't find much, but I found something about someone named Jiang Hao Tian.”
“Jiang Haotian?” Hong Yuye asked. “Did he have a family relationship with Jiang Hao?”
“That's possible,” Baizhi said. “That person and the people from the Bright Moon Sect stayed in the same inn. The Bright Moon Sect took their new disciples, but Chu Chuan did not follow them. Jiang Hao Tian must have taken someone of his age.”
“Continue,” says Hong Yuye.
“At first, I thought Jiang Hao Tian might be Jiang Hao. However, it seems like it is unlikely to happen,” Baizhi said. “They differ in appearance and temperament. Jiang Hao looked extremely arrogant and careless, almost like a madman. I suspect he must be someone related to Jiang Hao. However I learned that the Jiang Hao family moved a few years ago. I found nothing about them in the surrounding towns. He may not have a living brother. This guy looks very mysterious. I don't know what that guy's plan is.”
Baizhi had suspected the two were the same person. However, the two are very different. Besides, Jiang Hao was still young. He was in his early twenties. No matter how strong he was, he could not reach such a level.
"Is there anything else?" Hong Yuye asked indifferently.
“There is also another little girl that Jiang Hao recruited some time ago,” Baizhi said. “That girl received a lot of attention from Jiang Hao. That little girl is unusual. Even though he was only at the Life Blood Refinement Realm, no one could match him. After only a few months of cultivating, he was already at the second stage of the Life Blood Refinement Realm. He's amazing. Not only that, but he also has a huge appetite. I suspect he has a special physique or has a special background.”
“Have you investigated it?” Hong Yuye asked.
"I have. Ku Wu Chang must have investigated it as well. This little girl was picked up by an elderly couple from the river. They adopted. That's all I know for now. If nothing unexpected happened, Ku Wu Chang would accept him as a true disciple once he established his foundation.”
Baizhi nodded. “Based on this investigation, we can speculate that the person related to Jiang Hao might be near the sect, or even within the sect. Given that his whereabouts were hard to trace when he came out of the sect, that fellow might have helped him. However, all this is just speculation.”
“Continue investigation,” order Hong Yuye.
Baizhi nodded.
“What about other traitors besides Jiang Hao?” Hong Yuye looked at Baizhi.
Baizhi panic. “There's some progress. There may be some traitors among the elders.”
“Find them,” said Hong Yuye coldly. “And see who Azure Mountain hangs out with. ”
"Understood."
Hong Yuye took out a transparent box with a ring inside. "Here. This effort must be paid back.”
Baizhi took the box. He was unable to understand the intentions of Sect Master, especially when it came to Jiang Hao. He instructed her to investigate while giving him a gift.
'Did the Sect Master think there was something wrong with him but want to make him a pawn?'
There was no evidence incriminating Jiang Hao, so he did not think too much about it. Moreover, he was a pawn to attract other traitors.
They needed to solve other problems in the sect first and make the sect stronger in the next few years. More and more people knew about the Heavenly Fragrant Dao Flower. It could be a test of Jiang Hao's loyalty.
Jiang Hao opened his eyes. The meeting did not last long, but was full of surprises. He learned a lot from joining.
However, maintaining his position was a troublesome matter. He could not leave, and if the others asked for his cooperation, he could not refuse many times. They will either find it suspicious or consider it worthless.
Another thing that bothered him was the method of planting the Heavenly Fragrant Dao Flower. It made him think of Xuanyuan Tai.
Xuanyuan Tai knew that he was planting the flower and had seen the value of Jiang
Hao.
It seemed that it was not important before, but now, Jiang Hao realized something. Not many people knew how to plant the Heavenly Fragrant Dao Flower, yet he managed to plant it. Even Elder Baizhi sometimes sent him gifts which made him realize that he did a good job in raising the flower.
'Again, I am valuable to the Heavenly Note Sect.'
Jiang Hao was relieved when he realized it, but he was not sure of it yet. He did not dare to ask Elder Baizhi about it, as he was afraid of his anger.
'Maybe I can try asking Hong Yuye when I meet him again later…'
Suddenly, Jiang Hao realized that Hong Yuye might as well not know about it. Jiang Hao froze where he stood.
'Why did Elder Baizhi approach me? Was it a coincidence that he asked me to plant the flower at the same time that the traitors appeared?'
At that moment, he had a conflict with the traitors, and the sect started cracking down on them. He had received the seed from Elder Baizhi and managed to make his flowers grow. He had long suspected that he was giving him the seeds so that he could lure the traitors.
Jiang Hao decided to become stronger, whatever the reason. He opened the nameless manual and studied it.
The next morning, he got out of the cabin and found Ye Ji.
“Young Brother Jiang, have you made up your mind?” Ye Ji asked.
"Yes. I will follow you, Senior Brother Ye Ji.”.
"Good." Ye Ji walked towards Jiang Hao with a smile. “I'm looking forward to seeing you in action, Young Brother Jiang. I'm sure it will be very impressive.”
