THE CULTIVATION OF BESIDE DEVIL CULTIVATOR
200: I Hope You Will Be Confident When I Visit The Next Time
Jiang Hao had indeed brought something from the Devil's Nest. It was the Fucking Pearl of Heavenly Fate.
However, he did not want anyone to know.
He suspected Hong Yuye of trying to trick him into admitting the truth, so he denied everything. He had not expected Hong Yuye to physically search him. That's not appropriate.
Jiang Hao recalled that Hong Yuye had claimed the Heavenly Fragrant Dao Flower so boldly. He had even claimed the Eternal Peach Tree for himself.
Even powerful people can turn aggressive when they need something. The chances of Hong Yuye searching for his storage treasures were low but not zero.
With his thoughts swirling, Jiang Hao decided not to say anything to him. Maybe he could get away with it if he pretended to be stupid.
Hong Yuye drank his tea quietly. “Will you come to my place for tea?”
“I'm afraid I can't, Senior.” Jiang Hao looked down.
“Show me,” says Hong Yuye.
“I really don't have it.”
He poured more tea for the woman in front of him.
“How dare you lie to me when a red light radiates from you so clearly?” hong Yuye said.
This sudden remark caught Jiang Hao off guard.
Before he could reply, Hong Yuye said, “Any treasure, even if sealed, can leave a trace. These traces would disappear after a period of time, but the longer the interaction, the clearer the traces would be. The most real treasure in this case is the treasure associated with destiny and karma.”
Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao. “Do you think I'm blind?”
“How about I happen to come into contact with something like that but I didn't really bring it?” Jiang Hao asked.
“So, you accept that it is a possibility,” Hong Yuye said with a smile.
Jiang Hao felt he had fallen into his trap once again. He hesitated and decided to take out his pearl.
The Pearl of Heavenly Fate Crash was placed gently on the table. It was shrouded in purple spiritual energy.
Hong Yuye reached out a hand, picked it up, and examined it for a moment. “I think you are a good cultivator but less brave. Looks like you can be rash when needed.”
Jiang Hao said nothing. The pearls may come in handy someday, but using them will bring bad karma.
Jiang Hao decided not to use them unless absolutely necessary.
“Why did you take it? What's your intention?” Hong Yuye raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Hao. “Are you planning to use it against me?”
“No, Senior. You misunderstood,” said Jiang Hao. He did think about it for a while, but not anymore.
Hong Yuye smiled. "All right."
Jiang Hao lowered his head and remained silent. Better talk less with him.
Hong Yuye put back his pearl on the table and sipped his tea. “Do you know what this is?”
Hong Yuye glanced at Jiang Hao. “You are a very careful person. If you do not know the usefulness of this pearl, would you risk removing it from the Devil's Nest?”
Jiang Hao smiled awkwardly. “Senior, you're wise.”
“I think this is the Pearl of the Fate of Heaven,” he said.
“You should know that once the seal is opened, it will not only affect you but also the entire sect. It's going to be a disaster. It'll kill a lot of people. Those who manage to escape will be doomed. It will continue to spread until all living things are a part of it,” Hong Yuye said.
“If you intend to destroy the Heavenly Note Sect and escape, remember my flowers and the Everlasting Peach Tree are with you.
Jiang Hao shook his head. “I don't mean to do such a thing, Senit didn't think of using that pearl to destroy the Heav Note Sect.
First, the situation is not critical. Second, using the Pir of Misfortune gathers too much bad karma.
“There is something I should remind you.” Hong Yuye looked at the table. “Although the Pearl of Heavenly Fate brought bad luck, people still wanted it. If it appears here, some people may already know it.”
He did not say anything more, but Jiang Hao understood. After all, he could not possibly leave the pearl there, and he was also unable to give it to others. However, he who was just at the early stages of the Primordial Spirit Realm was not strong enough to protect his pearl.
Is obtaining treasures always accompanied by such problems?
“Senior, could it be that someone found the true location of the Pearl of Hea Fate Incurs?” asked Jiang Hao.
Hong Yuye thought about it for a moment. “In theory, no. Traces can be (found when a person imparts his aura to an object. Because implanting au: Pearl of Misfortune means instant death, I don't think anyone can do it.
“Then, are you interested in this pearl, Senior?” asked Jiang Hao.
“Why should I bring such an unlucky item?” hong Yuye said.
Jiang Hao realized that Hong Yuye only wanted divine treasures. The Heavenly Fragrant Dao Flower and the Eternal Peach Tree were both sacred objects. On the contrary, the Pearl of Heavenly Fate was not only associated with misfortune but was also stained by the blood of countless living beings. Hence, he was not interested in possessing such an item.
Jiang Hao decided not to say anything more. It was better to keep the pearl with him for now. At least he had the power to suppress the curse. There might be a chance he could use it.
“How about the progress of Stone Tablets?” Hong Yuye asked.
“No progress at all,” said Jiang Hao. “But we're heading in the right direction. I've infiltrated the inner circle. I will probably find more.”
Actually he only occasionally glanced at the stone tablets. Gui was still chasing the python. Xing and Liu often chatted about random things. However, they mentioned that the Thousand Gods Sect had become more active. They also talked about how the Sunny Moon Sect recruited other extremely talented disciples. Besides, Jiang Hao saw nothing. As for the mastermind behind the stone tablets, there was nothing to be found.
“You are full of lies.” Hong Yuye walked over to the Eternal Peach Tree and waved his hand lightly. The spirit beast fell into the river and drifted away. “In a few more months, this tree will bear fruit. I remember you saying that the fruit will sour.”
Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao. “If it turns out sweet, you are the one who bears the consequences.”
“Please rest assured, Senior. It will feel sour,” said Jiang Hao confidently.
“Are you so sure about it?” Hong Yuye was shocked as he looked at Jiang Hao's stern face.
His presence became very subtle, and he began to disappear.
“I hope you will be confident when I visit again later.” His voice mocked him..
