THE CULTIVATION OF BESIDE DEVIL CULTIVATOR
213: How Do You Plan to Thank Me?
After a while, Hong Yuye picked up a teacup and sniffed it.
“Tea Snow Thousand Flowers has a more palatable aroma than Red Sleeve tea and Snow Queen Spring.”
Jiang Hao sighed in relief. The Thousand Snowflowers Tea cost 200 spirit stones, and he had already bought it before. He hasn't brewed it until now.
“In addition to someone trying to steal my flowers, is there anything else?” hong Yuye asked after a while.
Jiang Hao hesitated and decided not to tell him about the task that Gui would give him. The matter only had something to do with him, and Hong Yuye probably wouldn't be involved in it.
He needed to find a suitable disguise route and blend in with his group.
Loner, strong, and mysterious - that's what he has to show. As long as they think he's the one doing all that, things will go well. However, he had to make sure he did not steal Dan Yuan's attention in the process.
“Nothing else matters, but I have some guesses about their background,” said Jiang Hao.
Hong Yuye was not interested. After finishing her tea, she walked into the bathroom, glanced at the wooden bathtub, then returned to the second-floor balcony. Jiang Hao stood behind him. He did not want to stand beside her and was pushed down like last time.
“How about your condition? Have you recovered from the poison?” she asked.
“Yes, Senior. Thank you." Thank you."
“Then..” Hong Yuye turned around and looked at Jiang Hao with a smile.
“How are you planning to thank me?”
This made Jiang Hao off guard.
“In a moment, I will come to shower here. Prepare silver moon flower petals for me,” Hong Yuye said. “There's a problem?”
“Um...” Jiang Hao felt a little worried. He did not know how much the silver moon flower petal spirit stone cost. As he hesitated, an overwhelming aura oppressed him.
“No problem,” he replied hurriedly.
"Good." Hong Yuye smiled and disappeared in a red shadow. “If you are not ready, I will tear off your skin layer.”
Jiang Hao sighed in relief as he disappeared. He didn't think to thank her.
Hong Yuye's cold attitude made him act similarly. He sighed and decided to inquire about the silver moon petals. He hoped the price was not too high.
He headed to the Snow Lotus Pavilion.
“Ten spirit stones?” Jiang Hao was quite surprised by the price. That's cheap. But soon, he realized that he had misunderstood. “It's for one petal. We usually sell it in a set containing ninety-nine petals.”
In other words, one set was 990 spirit stones. “Can I see the petals?” Jiang Hao asked.
"Of course."
The flower petals are pure white but not very large. Jiang Hao estimated it would take around nine petals to fill his palm. Wooden bathtubs require thirty to forty handfuls of flower petals to fill everything.
In other words, he needed around three thousand spirit stones.
Compared to the information about poison, spending three thousand spirit stones was nothing. He's probably dead by now.
Leaving the Snow Lotus Pavilion, Jiang Hao decided to sell the talisman he had just made. Tomorrow, he would start making stronger talismans, which would give him more spirit stones. He decided to buy a set of ninety-nine flower petals first to make sure he had them if Hong Yuye suddenly appeared.
While setting up his stall, a Foundation Establishment Level cultivator walked in front of Jiang Hao's stall and observed the talismans. “Do you have the Hundred Thousand Sword Talisman?” She asked.
Jiang Hao shook his head. “For now, no.”
“If you don't have it, just say it. What do you mean by “for currently”? Do you expect me to believe that a Cultivator of the Realm Establishment Foundation can make the Hundred Thousand Sword Talisman?” said Duan Guan while staring coldly at Jiang Hao. “More practical in business and don't be too cocky.”
“I will take ten Healing Amulets and ten Ten Thousand Sword Amulets.” Duan Guan threw out six hundred spirit stones, took his talisman, and turned around to leave.
Seeing that person leave, Jiang Hao could only sigh tiredly. The customer seems difficult to befriend but seems to have a lot of spirit stones. They had no grudges against each other, so why would he act like one?
Finally, he took out six Healing Talismans and six Ten Thousand Sword Talismans and displayed them.
He still had about ten talismans left. They are not easy to sell. After a long time, he had only managed to sell five talismans, a total of 750 spirit stones. He still needed two hundred more petals to buy. He thought if he came back tomorrow, he could earn enough money.
On the way home, Jiang Hao suddenly met Liu Xingchen.
“It has been a long time since I last saw you, Young Brother Jiang,” Liu Xingchen said.
“Greetings, Senior Sister Liu. It has been quite a long time not meeting,” replied Jiang Hao politely.
“I'm busy with affairs related to the heavenly Sacred Sect. Thankfully, we managed to kill and capture several enemies, and we also caught the traitor who leaked information. The Hall of Merit had listed the top ten rankings for this achievement. Congratulations, Young Brother Jiang, for this time not making the top ten.”
“Senior sister must be kidding. Last time was just an accident.”
“But your achievements are not few. You wander into the Devil's Nest. I'm sure you've benefited from it. This time, I saw someone in the top ten who seemed interesting, ” Liu Xingchen said. “Do you remember Bai Ye?”
Jiang Hao's heart stopped beating upon hearing that name, but he remained calm.
“I remember,” said Jiang Hao calmly.
“Bai Ye used to be self-effacing, but ever since the attack of the Heavenly Saint Sect, she has become quite active. He made it into the top five. I also know about his cultivation realm. He was at the final stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm. I think he is trying to reach the top ten,” Liu Xingchen said in awe.
'The final stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm..
He was two levels higher than Jiang Hao. He needed to wait longer to reach that stage.
He is in the top five because of his contribution. If he was injured, it would trouble Jiang Hao. The Law Enforcement Hall will investigate the matter seriously.
'I will wait a few years until I can reach the final stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm…
Now that Bai Ye was in the top five, the consequences of killing or injuring her were unimaginable.
Jiang Hao realized that the rules of the Heavenly Note Sect protected him, but the rules also held him back from taking action against others.
However, there was one thing he had to watch out for. He had to make sure Bai Ye was no longer on the top ten list of disciples. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to deal with it.
“So... just reaching the final stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm is enough to enter the list as the tenth top disciple of the sect?” Jiang Hao asked.
As far as Jiang Hao could remember, Man Long had held the tenth position for the longest time. He was the only senior Jiang Hao knew from that list. He rarely heard about the others.
“In theory, yes. But maybe it's not always like that. The top ten ranked disciple, Man Long, was now at the peak of the Primordial Spirit Realm. However, it was you who helped capture Xuanyuan Tai, and he reaped the benefits and rewards. Those gifts and resources helped him advance to the peak of the Primordial Spirit Realm. So now, if you want to pursue the position of a top ranked disciple of the top ten, you should at least be at the peak of the Primordial Spirit Realm or so. Achievements may give you points, but strength is the most important. Bai Ye was probably older than Man Long, so she was at a disadvantage. I heard that he was almost advancing to the next stage, ” explained Liu Xingchen.
“Murid rank ten is already at the peak of the Primordial Spirit Realm?! What about the person who ranked first?” asked Jiang Hao. The gap in strength was too great.
“Murid first said senior from White Moon Lake. He might have already surpassed the Spiritual Refining Realm,” Liu Xingchen said.
Jiang Hao could not believe it. “The difference between the top ten disciples itself is huge!”
Liu Xingchen smiled. “Sometimes, the first rank is far ahead. Unfortunately, my strength is not enough. Otherwise, I would also like to pursue the position of one of the top ten disciples. I heard they have many privileges and even the possibility of receiving personal guidance from the Sect Master.”
The ten senior disciples attracted a lot of attention. However, they could keep the sect safe with such strength.
Jiang Hao thought for a moment. It was difficult to reach the top ten when such talented people were already too far ahead..
