At the Astronomical Academy, Jing Dajiang sat under a tree and enjoyed the cool breeze while sipping his coffee.
Next to him were two elderly men.
âThat young girl is quite dangerous,â said the one with a white beard.
âI asked around about her. It seems she has been in the academy since very young, but she is a bit distant from others,â said Jing Dajiang and chuckled while eating some peanuts.
âBut itâs alright for now. She wonât be a problem. She still lacks opportunities, which arenât easy to find. It might take ten or even a hundred years to take another step forward. When she gets there, Iâll lend her a hand.â
âYou gave her the Astronomical Scroll⊠What if it creates conflict with other sects?â asked the beardless old man.
âConflict with other sects?â Jing Dajiang laughed. âDo we look like pushovers? Do they look that tough? If they dare to engage in a fight with us, why would we back down? As long as that young girl remains tough, even major sects like the Clear Sky School or the Bright Moon Sect would have to think seriously about starting a war, let alone small Western sects. The seniors from the major sects will have to step in to defuse the situation. Donât worry. Nobody dares to fight us⊠except maybe the Mountain Sea Sword Sect.â The two elders nodded. That did make sense.
After a while, a disciple entered their space.
The disciple was dressed in blue and white academy robes. He looked scholarly and held a fan in his hand.
âGood morning, Elders, â he said in greeting.
âWhatâs the matter?â Jing Dajiang asked.
âSenior Sister Yan has fallen into the inner demon,â said the young disciple.
Jing Dajiang and the other two were surprised.
âSo soon? Where did she find the opportunity?â asked the bearded elder. âIt seems she lost herself in anger, and then her immortal intent manifested.â
âHer immortal intent appeared?â Jing Dajiang frowned slightly. âWhat does she plan to do?â
âShe intends to ascend to the Immortal Ascension Platform within her inner demon.â
âNonsense!â
âIn fact, thereâs a possibility of success.â
âDo you think you know this better than me?â
The newcomer bowed. âSenior Sister Yan did something extraordinary. She took a Golden Core Realm cultivator into her inner demon. This person might aid her in her success. Although Senior Sister Yan only wanted to protect him, she unknowingly laid a possibility for her path to immortality. Thisâll also benefit the Golden Core Realm cultivator.â
âShe took someone into her inner demon? That is⊠quite bold!â Jing Dajiang chuckled.
âHis name is Dole. He is of average talent and is good at formations. He sometimes thinks he is inferior to others but has a defining quality that most people lack: pure kindness. Senior Sister Yan took the Astronomical Scroll to protect him. This is an opportunity for both her and the Golden Core Realm cultivator,â said the newcomer.
âIs the situation dangerous?â
âYes. Our people havenât acted yet. This is an opportunity for everyone. Intervening might mean that they can help the two survive, but it might also increase the chance of failure for what Senior Sister Yan intends to do.â
Jing Dajiang fell silent for a moment.
Then, he asked about the ancient pages.
âIt seems itâs in the West. According to some seniors, the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment might have attracted the pages to her.â
âThe Bright Moon Sect has the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment. The Clear Sky School has a Sage. What does our sect have?â The newcomer lowered his head and fell silent.
Jing Dajiang didnât ask further. He had retired, and these matters were of no concern to him. The only thing he cared about was meeting that senior again. Unfortunately, apart from the book title, there was no further news about him.
After the newcomer left, the three enjoyed the peanuts for a while.
Feeling increasingly bored as they ate, Jing Dajiang finally stood up. âIt has been a long time since I went out, hasnât it?â
âWhy? Do you want to go out?â the bearded elder asked. âIâm going to go out for a stroll.â Jing Dajiang got up.
It was too boring to stay here day after day.
In the southern region, Bi Zhu led Qiao Yi to the Heavenly Note Sect.
âPrincess, you come here quite often,â said Qiao Yi.
âNo, I donât!â said Bi Zhu hurriedly. âPlease, Aunt Qiao, donât say such unlucky things. Thisâll be our last visit.â
Qiao Yi was puzzled. âWhy are you so afraid of this place yet insist on coming here every time?â
âBecause this is the South. I plan to go west. I want to meet the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment. Maybe Iâll find her there.â Bi Zhu smiled warily.
âAre you happy, Princess?â
âOf course. Leaving the southern region will make me even happier. If we can get used to the West, we wonât even come back here.â
âWhat if your brothers want to see you?
âLet them come to the West to visit me then. Besides, my life is almost over. In a hundred years or so, Iâll die. They donât need to worry about me anymore.â Death meant the end of worries.
Qiao Yi didnât know what to say for a moment. It probably wouldnât really end. The princess was not an ordinary person.
Although she hadnât seen the princess in action, she seemed quite extraordinary.
As for her claim of being the first genius of the royal family, that remained to be seen.
Bi Zhu spoke to the guards as they neared the entrance of the Heavenly Note Sect.
âI am Bi Zhu of the Blackheaven Sect. Iâm here to meet liang Hao of the Cliff of
Broken Hearts. Here is my letter for your reference.â
The letter was provided by the Blackheaven Sect, which allowed her to visit the Heavenly Note Sect as a guest.
Bi Zhu also handed over a few spirit stones to them for everything to go smoothly. She didnât have much else, but she had plenty of spirit stones.
If she offered them a few, it would definitely make her visit much easier.
âOf course. Please follow me,â said the guard after accepting the spirit stones.
She was taken to the guest reception area. The guard then asked someone to fetch Jiang Hao.
With spirit stones to pave the way, everyone was happy.
At the Cliff of Broken Hearts, Jiang Hao had waited for Gui to arrive for nearly a month.
After handing over the items to her, he could go about his own affairs.
As for Doleâs situation, it all depended on luck.
He had offended too many people this time. Even if Zhang was outstanding, she was just one person. She might not be able to protect Dole alone.
Even if Xing had gotten involved, it would have been the same.
No matter what he had to offer, he couldnât amass the power of the entire Astronomical Academy or the Bright Moon sect.
That would require immense leverage, which Jiang Hao didnât have.
Even a top-ranking disciple couldnât manage something like that.
It was almost impossible for Dole to live a peaceful life.
It would be difficult to survive for him.
With a sigh, Jiang Hao stopped overthinking.
After that, he arrived at the guest reception area. This was the second time he had directly traded with the other party. He didnât know if it would have any impact on him.
Fortunately, it wonât be as frequent.
âItâs been too long since I saw you last, Friend Jiang,â said Bi Zhu with a smile.
Jiang Hao politely said, âIndeed.â
Jiang Hao handed over the box containing the Ancient and Modern Book.
âFriend Jiang, arenât you going to the West?â Bi Zhu suddenly asked.
Jiang Hao shook his head.
âThatâs a pity,â Bi Zhu said with a regretful smile..
