Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness Chapter 346 – Planning to Escape?

Chapter 346: Planning to Escape?

EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Hao was quite surprised when he saw the information given by the appraisal.

The remnant souls seem to be recuperating.

Jiang Hao didn’t think that the bored Liu Xingchen would wait for too long. If they continued to do nothing, they all might end up being devoured by him.

Maybe that would force them to launch an attack.

Or perhaps these three had sensed the danger and didn’t dare to confront Liu Xingchen head-on. They might be biding their time to escape.

That would surely interest Liu Xingchen.

However, Jiang Hao was still unsure what the remnants planned to do.

He could only wait until they recuperated and made a move.

Jiang Hao felt troubled by the last line. He wondered what Liu Xingchen had planned for him. However, he had no choice. Gu Qing was too strong, and he could only rely on Liu Xingchen.

She was at the peak of Return to Void Realm. He couldn’t even imagine how it must feel to be at the early stage of Return to Void Realm, let alone the late stage.

“Is Junior Sister Gu really a spy?” Jiang Hao asked.

“I’m not sure about that, but her strength is formidable,” Liu Xingchen said. “In the beginning, I wasn’t sure about her strength either. I only sought the assistance of the seniors because she had some treasure with her. I’m glad I took some people with me. That’s how we were able to capture her.”

“Treasure?”

“Yes, secret treasure,” Liu Xingchen said. “At first, I used the Pseudo-Heavenly Essence Soul Modeling Mirror and found nothing, so I requested the real one. Still, nothing came up. That indicated that she was either extremely powerful or had treasures with her. After several investigations, the Law Enforcement Hall concluded that she had treasures. We applied for a divine treasure to suppress the power of the treasure she had. Then, we arrested her. Last night, she was heading to your residence, Junior Brother Jiang. We found her on the way. We then captured her.”

“I see.” Jiang Hao nodded.

He wondered if the Heavenly Essence Soul Modeling Mirror came in real and pseudo variety.

“What if she had killed other disciples? Could the mirror come in handy to find out?” asked Jiang Hao.

“The process would be complicated, but as of now, if we use a higher-level Heavenly Essence Soul Modeling Mirror, we should be able to find out. Of course, investigating the murder of fellow sect members would be much more complicated. But she can’t escape.”

“For now… we don’t know what she did here.” Liu Xingchen shook his head. “We’re currently investigating why she was in the sect. She was sent to the

Lawless Tower. It probably won’t go well for her there.”

‘The Lawless Tower?’

Jiang Hao thought of Hai Luo and the others. Maybe he would find her there too.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t make her suffer with just a few words. He hadn’t found any leverage on her yet.

“There’s one more thing I need to tell you, Junior Brother Jiang,” Liu Xingchen said suddenly. “Capturing her is an accomplishment. Don’t you want credit for

Jiang Hao shook his head. “I did nothing. I only had some doubts. You did all the work. You deserve the credit.”

“That works too.” Liu Xingchen smiled and nodded.

“Oh, by the way, if Junior Sister Gu caused any losses during her time at the Spirit Herb Garden, who would be responsible for it?” Jiang Hao was quite concerned.

After all, those spirit herbs were of considerable value.

If he really had to compensate for other people’s spirit herbs, he wouldn’t be able to afford it.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Xingchen said, “I’ll take two people to thoroughly investigate this afternoon. I will find out Junior Sister Gu’s residence and the tasks she was in charge of. If there’s any loss, I’ll help you apply for compensation. Currently, Junior Sister Gu is still a disciple of the Heavenly Note Sect, but that might not be the case for much longer.”

Jiang Hao understood that if she was still a disciple, he had to bear the responsibility. If not, he wouldn’t be made to compensate.

After talking for a while, Jiang Hao learned that the sect was preparing and was likely to take action against the Heavenly Saint Sect.

With the Heavenly Saint Sect out of the way, he would be much safer.

Besides the Heavenly Note Sect, he was also being watched by the Sunset Immortal Sect.

The first wave of attacks by the Sunset Immortal Sect shouldn’t pose a danger.

His strength was at Foundation Establishment Realm, so no matter how cautious the other party was, they wouldn’t use a cultivator surpassing the Primordial Spirit Realm to deal with him.

For those who had grudges against him, they assumed he was weak. So, they wouldn’t send strong opponents.

It was a pity that he wasn’t strong enough himself. Otherwise, no one would hold a grudge against him at all.

However, he couldn’t underestimate the situation, or he might become the next Gu Qing.

She had disguised herself to appear at the early Foundation Establishment Realm but was still captured.

After bidding farewell to Liu Xingchen, Jiang Hao returned to the Spirit Herb Garden.

In the afternoon, Liu Xingchen arrived to investigate. He found that there were problems with the spirit herbs.

It was worth thirty-nine thousand spirit stones.

In the end, the Law Enforcement Hall took away half of the spirit herbs and compensated for ninety percent of the value.

The remaining half was to be borne by the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

Some spirit herbs could be restored in time.

So, in the end, they had to bear ten percent of the loss.

That was 390 spirit stones.

Jiang Hao wasn’t too concerned about that. It was a pity no one had compensated him for the spirit herbs he lost.

So, he could only accept this loss on his own. But Jiang Hao was okay with it.

The capture of Gu Qing was the most important thing to him. At least he was safe now.

Seven days later, Liu Xingchen informed him that Gu Qing had been confirmed to be a spy and was locked up at the Lawless Tower indefinitely. Jiang Hao felt relieved. He could now continue with his own matters.

He returned to his house and glanced at his interface.

Since his advancement to a new stage, he hadn’t really looked at it closely.

[Name: Jiang Hao]

[Age: 27]

[Cultivation: Peak Stage of Primordial Spirit Realm]

[Cultivation Method: Heavenly Sound Hundred Revolutions, Hong Meng Heart Sutra]

[Divine Ability: Nine Revolutions Death Substitution (unique), Daily Appraisal, Clear and Pure Heart, Reappearance of Hidden Spirit, Divine Might, Revival of

Withered Tree]

‘Twenty-seven years old… It’s been almost eight years since I met Hong Yuye. I was nineteen then.’

In just a few short years, he had progressed from the eighth stage of the Lifeblood Refinement Realm to the peak of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

He had surpassed Foundation Establishment Realm, then Golden Core Realm, and now was on the verge of surpassing the Primordial Spirit Realm.

The speed was unbelievable.

Jiang Hao felt delighted.

Even the disciples of the Clear Sky School couldn’t manage to advance so fast.

When they first met, he was at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and Liu Xingchen was at the peak of the Golden Core Realm.

Over seven years had passed since then, and he had reached the peak of the Primordial Spirit Realm, while Liu Xingchen was in the middle stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

If anyone found out about his progress, they would be shocked.

People would definitely want to find out how it was possible.

And his fellow disciple, Han Ming, who started in the same realm as him, was still only at the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

‘The more I think about it, the more I feel that my state of mind isn’t very stable.’ Jiang Hao sighed.

Once he started to feel pride, it would be the beginning of his destruction.

He had to be constantly vigilant. He couldn’t go down the wrong path.

After calming himself, Jiang Hao began to plan for the future.

‘Speaking of which, it’s time to visit the Hundred Bones Forest again.’

It had been a year since the last time he had used the sealing technique.

Now that he had finally managed to suppress Bai Ye’s cultivation by a level, he couldn’t let him catch up to him.

Two weeks later, Jiang Hao arrived at the Hundred Bones Forest at night.

However, when he sensed Bai Ye outside the valley, he felt that something was amiss.. ‘What’s going on? Middle Stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm?!’
