Chapter 360: The Bright Moon Sect Is Coming

“You’re releasing me so early, Master? Shouldn’t you tie me up a bit longer?”

...

The spirit beast stood beside Jiang Hao.

“No.” Jiang Hao shook his head. “How about three more days?”

Jiang Hao ignored it.

“Two days?”

Jiang Hao walked out of the courtyard.

The spirit beast caught up with him. “One day? Surely just one day more?”

Jiang Hao glanced at the spirit beast. He then proceeded to water the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower and the Immortal Peach Tree.

The tree had started to bear fruit. In a month or two, the fruits on it would be ready to eat.

At that, he could determine how many spirit stones would be needed for its incarnation.

Based on experience, it would probably require around 20,000.

Looking at his current stash of 22,000 spirit stones, Jiang Hao felt reassured.

He planned to earn more in the next month or two, just in case.

At the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao learned from Miao Tinglian that she had almost become the winner in the grand competition.

“Almost? Did you lose to White Moon Lake in the end?” he curiously asked.

“No, I lost to someone from the Law Enforcement Hall,” Miao Tinglian said regretfully.

“The second place should have rewards too, right?”

“Yes, but I encountered someone from the Law Enforcement Hall right after leaving the Cliff of Broken Hearts… not at the competition.”

“Then how is it that you almost won?”

“Because the winner was the person I met. I almost won against him, though not in the competition. Isn’t that close enough?”

Jiang Hao was speechless.

“What about Senior Brother Mu Qi?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Mu Qi is attempting to advance to the Primordial Spirit Realm, so he didn’t participate in the competition,” Miao Tinglian said with some regret.

Then, she remembered something: “Junior Brother, how old are you now?”

“Twenty-seven, ” Jiang Hao said.

He felt like he had gone from nineteen to twenty-seven in a flash. After a few years, he would be in his thirties.

“Not too young anymore. Have you considered finding a partner? I recently brought back a cultivator from the outer sect. She’s at the ninth stage of the Lifeblood Refinement Realm. She is very beautiful and gentle. You can have her stay in the Spirit Herb Garden. She’s very suitable for you,” Miao Tinglian said with a smile.

Jiang Hao was at a loss for words. Why did Miao Tinglian always have to play the matchmaker? Didn’t she have anything else to do?

“Do you want to meet her?” Miao Tinglian asked.

Jiang Hao looked around and saw Mu Qi walking over to them.

“Senior Brother Mu Qi, I have something I’d like to ask you,” said Jiang Hao.

Miao Tinglian was speechless.

Jiang Hao did have a question to ask. He wanted to know who the winners of this competition were.

Ming from here, someone from Flowing Waterfall, one from the Law Enforcement Hall, and one from Ice Moon Valley. As for the Golden Core Realm category, there is someone from the Law Enforcement Hall, White Moon Lake, the Hundred Bones Forest, and Candlelight Pill Pavilion.”

“The Primordial Spirit Realm category isn’t done yet. They’re still competing,” Mu Qi said.

Jiang Hao nodded. All these people had the chance to obtain good-quality resources.

He couldn’t help but sigh. ” Junior Brother Han Ming indeed has the bearing of a top contender.”

Mu Qi smiled but didn’t say anything.

Jiang Hao was looking forward to Han Ming’s pursuit of the first rank. He was sure Han Ming would do well.

‘First place…’

If he wanted to pursue it, he had to stay within the normal speed of progress.

Han Ming was a perfect example.

He was fast in his advancement but not so fast to draw unnecessary attention.

If one person advanced too quickly, they would stand out. But if there were two or more at the same speed, it would seem normal.

“By the way, there’s another benefit to being a winner this time. You have a chance to spar with people from the Bright Moon Sect,” Mu Qi said.

“I’ve also heard about that,” Miao Tinglian said. “It’s said that people from the bright Moon Sect have already arrived in the southern region and have started visiting various sects. If a sect received an invitation before, they’ll come in person for a visit. Our sect has also received an invitation. So, people from the Bright Moon Sect will be coming here too.”

Jiang Hao thought of Xing. ‘Will he come too, or send someone else in his place?’

Jiang Hao felt that the Bright Moon Sect’s visit to this sect would be related to Gu Qing.

It seemed that Gu Qing was already sent to the mines.

After all, the Heavenly Note Sect doesn’t know about her other value.

However, it’s unclear whether she can endure becoming a Lifeblood Refinement Realm cultivator as the Lawless Tower gradually chipped away at her current cultivation.

Gu Qing knew him. Jiang Hao wondered how it might affect him if she was taken away from here by Xing.

He thought it might not be possible, after all.

He needed to inform Chu Chuan about this. With the arrival of the Bright Moon Sect’s people, Chu Jie must have asked them to fetch Chu Chuan.

There were some things that he didn’t want Chu Chuan to disclose about him.

And Lin Zhi also needed to avoid these people.

Jiang Hao felt regretful. Even unintentionally, he had gotten involved in too much trouble.

“How long will it take for the bright Moon Sect to arrive?” Jiang Hao asked.

“It should take quite some time,” Mu Qi said.

“They will spend some time in each sect, and our sect is relatively remote.

They’ll most likely come to us last.”

“They might not even make it to our sect this year,” Miao Tinglian said.

Jiang Hao nodded. Each sect had to be visited. It might take a long time. The southern region was vast, and there were numerous sects within it.

Jiang Hao couldn’t help but sigh. The people from the Bright Moon Sect were really patient.

He didn’t know how long Gu Qing could survive in the mine.

At the outskirts of Hidden Cloud Prefecture, a woman in a jade green dress descended slowly.

“Is it the Heavenly Note Sect again? I wonder if they’ve gained anything.” Bi Zhu looked to the left, and then to the right.

In order to obtain another Snow God Pill, she had come specifically to find traces of great luck.

“Jing should be near the Heavenly Note Sect too. If he found it, he would have said so already. Could it be that there’s none here?” Bi Zhu was puzzled.

Out of curiosity, she decided to investigate.

She didn’t know Jing’s real identity, but she remembered the purple light vividly.

She had seen it again at Heavenly Stele Mountain in the Blood Tide Forest.

Bi Zhu suspected that Jing had other matters of his own. It was even possible that the extraordinary genius was indeed him.

She had no evidence, but her intuition told her that it was most likely.

With that in mind, she started using a secret technique.

There was no response.

Then she moved to another location. She used the technique again.

Nothing.

By evening, she lost track of how many locations she had checked. But she still found nothing.

She suddenly heard someone talking.

“I heard that person has already set out to find the location of great luck. This area has traces of auspicious energy. We might find something.”

“I always feel like we’ve been used. We should leave.”

“Used? Why do you say that?”

“That person used traces of auspicious energy here. Could it be possible that we’ll suffer a backlash?”

“Elder Mu said that this might be dangrous. If you want to take a chance, you can stay. If you’re afraid, you can leave.”

Bi Zhu looked at the group of people. It was clear that they had very little understanding of auspicious energy.

They probably had very little knowledge of other things too, especially when it came to curses.

She saw a hint of red light on these people. It was the presence of a curse.

Although very faint, it made her wary.

Then she used her secret technique again and found something this time. There was a trace of auspicious energy here, but it was tainted by a curse.

‘Why is this happening?’

She felt uneasy.

She retreated and went to look for someone at the stone tablet..
