Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness Chapter 496 – Chi Tian, How Have You Been?

Chapter 496: Chi Tian, How Have You Been?

EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the Milky Way Sea Region, on a bustling island, Chi Tian sat on the floor of a medium-sized treasure shop.

Now, he had firmly established his position here, and the surrounding cultivators respected him, unlike the Blood Shadow Sect, where no one respected or feared him.

Here, even those with higher cultivation realms would show respect to him.

Because he had a powerful force backing him, it made them wary.

The strength of The End of All Things was something he hadn’t expected.

But even a secretive force needs spirit stones.

Naturally, they need someone to stand at the forefront.

And since he had just joined, he remained unknown.

So, he was suitable for this task.

He enjoyed this peaceful period, but the hatred in his heart became increasingly apparent.

He wanted to kill more people under the guise of The End of All Things.

As for the matter of the mysterious person, he had long forgotten about it.

Now he was Xue Lu, not Chi Tian.

The person couldn’t find him and couldn’t control him.

This was not the eastern region. This place was not within that person’s sphere of influence. He was grateful to the person who helped him seek his revenge, but that matter was over now.

Thump! Thump!

Someone knocked on the door and interrupted Chi Tian’s thoughts.

“Come in.”

Creak…

At the door stood a young woman. “Senior Xue, there’s someone here who needs your attention.”

“Alright, let them in. Xue Lu nodded.

Anyone who needed to meet him was either strong in cultivation or willing to pay a good price for something.

Soon, a young man walked in with the woman from before. He had a restrained aura, so it was difficult to know what cultivation realm he was in.

‘No cultivation aura?’ Chi Tian was alarmed.

Yet, he saw a divine light in the person’s eyes. This wasn’t an ordinary person.

He didn’t hesitate. Xue Lu stood up to greet him.

“Respected Senior, please forgive me for not welcoming you earlier.” He promptly asked the young woman to pour them some tea.

“That’s alright,” said the young man politely. “I heard that a remarkable senior was here, and today, I see that the reputation is indeed well-deserved.”

“I am Xue Lu. May I inquire about your name, fellow disciples?” Chi Tian remained courteous.

“My name is Zhu Shen.” The young man smiled.

“Friend Zhu, please have a seat.” Chi Tian extended his hand in invitation.

The two of them sat down, and tea was poured for them.

“Friend Zhu, what are you here to buy this time?” Chi Tian asked.

“I want to buy a valuable shield.” Zhu Shen smiled.

At that point, a treasure was brought in. It was a shield usable for Golden Core Realm cultivators.

It was grayish-white and seemed to have water droplets inside.

“This is the Profound Heart Water Shield.” Chi Tian smiled. “Friend Zhu, you have a good eye. This shield may not be top-tier, but it is highly practical. Are you unsatisfied with the price?”

“No.” Zhu Shen shook his head slightly. “I just wanted to use this as an excuse to meet you. To be precise, I was sent here by someone.”

The words made Chi Tian frown. ‘Has my hideout been discovered?’

Apart from him and a few others, no one knew that this place was the property of The End of All Things.

“May I ask who sent you here?” Chi Tian asked calmly.

Could it be an adversary of The End of All Things?

Zhu Shen smiled and didn’t say much. He paid the spirit stones. “Is this enough? I’ll take this treasure.”

After receiving the treasure, he handed over an envelope.

“The person who sent me here for you asked me to give you this.” Chi Tian’s face changed, and his hands trembled. The paper fell.

He instinctively took two steps back in fear.

There was only a sentence written in the paper: “Chi Tian, how have you been?” Such a simple greeting made Chi Tian terrified.

There was only one person who knew his name and would send a message.

He thought he had escaped from that person’s grasp. Only now did he realize that he had been in that person’s palm all this while.

The terrifying energy made him feel uneasy. His heart raced. The fear spread to his entire being.

He couldn’t understand how he had been exposed.

At the Heavenly Note Sect, Jiang Hao woke up early in the morning and yawned. Then, he sat up on his bed.

Last night, he went to sleep to see if the Earth Extreme Silence Pearl would show any new signs.

Unfortunately, there was still nothing.

This pearl was a potential threat.

He needed to ascertain it first and eliminate the danger.

He saw two blue bubbles at the edge of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower when he walked to the courtyard.

[Cultivation +1]

[Lifeblood +1]

He couldn’t add more since it was at full capacity.

Jiang Hao glanced at the interface. [Lifeblood: 100/100 (can be cultivated)]

[Cultivation: 100/100 (can be cultivated)]

Today, he could advance to a higher stage in his cultivation realm.

After watering the plants, Jiang Hao sat in the courtyard for a while. He didn’t rush to go to the Spirit Herb Garden.

The beast was still sleeping, and Xiao Li would be here soon.

When she took the spirit beast away, he would go to the Spirit Herb Garden.

In the past few days, Xiao Li had been taking the spirit beast outside to play.

She also took Chu Chuan along for training.

Since Lin Zhi was about to go out of the sect, he was also pulled along by the spirit beast to train with Xiao Li.

The spirit beast said that the ordinary Lifeblood Refinement Realm couldn’t improve Lin Zhi’s ability to take beatings.

Jiang Hao didn’t mind. The spirit beast could teach him however it wanted.

As long as it didn’t disrupt his regular teaching, it was fine.

Moreover, Lin Zhi trusted the spirit beast.

The spirit beast didn’t disappoint anyone, so there was no need to worry too much.

When Chu Chuan found out that Lin Zhi was his senior, he was stunned. A senior at the Lifeblood Refinement Realm was unheard of and

Xiao Li was a good kid. She had heard her parents talk about respect, so a senior, no matter his strength, was still a senior.

Chu Chuan had no choice but to call Lin Zhi “Senior Brother” too.

But he was unconvinced, so he beat Lin Zhi in a fight. Xiao Li beat Chu Chuan again.

Cheng Chou reported all of this to Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao didn’t know how to feel about it and just let it be.

While waiting, he looked at the stone tablet.

He found that Liu had already completed his task, which was good.

[Gui: Have you all been to Imperial City? I’m here now. I want to see what the royal family is up to. There’s quite a stir. If you need anything, you can tell me.] [Xing: It might be related to the Saint Bandits.]

[Gui: It’s a pity the mission regarding Saint Bandits is difficult. Otherwise, I would ask for a Snow God Pill as a reward.]

Jiang Hao was surprised. Gui had already asked for a few Snow God Pills before and still wanted more.

“Beast?” Xiao Li sneaked into the courtyard and squatted next to the spirit beast.

When Jiang Hao looked over, she rummaged in her pocket and handed him a few white dates.

Then, with a swoosh, she snatched the spirit beast away.

Jiang Hao shook his head, ate the white dates, and went to the Spirit Herb Garden.

As soon as he arrived, he met Miao Tinglian.

“Junior Brother Jiang, something big has happened,” Miao Tinglian said quietly.

“What?” Jiang Hao asked in confusion.

“Here. This is for you.” Miao Tinglian handed an invitation to Jiang Hao.

“Invitation from the royal family?” Jiang Hao was surprised.

Wasn’t this related to the marriage alliance that Gui had mentioned?

Jiang Hao was even more puzzled. The invitation was for Mu Qi, his senior.

What was the use of giving him this?

He couldn’t go out of the sect, so the invitation was useless..
