Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness Chapter 782 – We Walk The Same Path

Chapter 782: We Walk The Same Path

EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Hao held the Half-Moon Blade in his hand and felt nostalgic.

It had been a long time since he had clashed with anyone.

Be it outside or within the sect, he rarely engaged in conflicts.

In recent years, he had worked on his state of mind or mining and cultivating spirit herbs.

He quite enjoyed that kind of life.

Fighting and killing weren’t good. Even if he won this time, next time could end up being his last.

Losing in such situations would be catastrophic.

Therefore, he avoided everything and resolved issues as quickly as possible.

Since everyone who had come here wanted to challenge him, he needed to be prepared.

He worried about being weaker than others. He was concerned that would put an end to his progress.

It was all for him to progress a little further and become a little stronger.

Whether one was right or wrong didn’t matter here.

Everyone was on the same path. It was all about survival.

With a sigh, Jiang Hao looked at the last person standing.

Even dealing with Golden Core Realm cultivators required him to put in his full effort. These people were all extraordinary, and no one knew what kind of trouble they might stir up.

“Let’s take a walk and talk?” Jiang Hao soared on his sword and swiftly crossed the distance with the Golden Core Realm cultivator before him.

The Golden Core Realm cultivator felt a sense of dread. It seemed the person before him was not an ordinary cultivator in the middle stage of the Golden

He wasn’t at Primordial Soul Realm, either. He was more powerful than that.

The reason they had survived last time was because Dole had saved them.

Now, they had willingly walked into their doom.

Although they had escaped death before, they had walked toward it again.

“Dole was captured by someone… There’s news that Dole was selling ores for a senior, and this ‘senior’ might possess a tremendous opportunity related to Heavenly Stele Mountain. The rumor was that the senior was powerful enough to control the whole mountain, and Dole was selling ores on his behalf to collect enough spirit stones to activate a hidden treasure,” the man said.

Jiang Hao furrowed his brow. Did anyone believe such a bizarre story?

“Such events have occurred,” Guan Zhongfei said seriously. “But it’s just hearsay. It’s rumored that someone from the Astronomical Academy achieved this and attracted Heavenly Stele Mountain before and advanced in a single leap. It’s said that he was the only one to climb Heavenly Stele Mountain then, and others couldn’t enter that area because it was under his control. No one knew what he obtained, but everyone knew that his cultivation realm had advanced rapidly. He became a legend.”

Jiang Hao was surprised. “From the Astronomical Academy? Which senior was

Guan Zhongfei shook his head. “I don’t know. No one does. But everyone believed that he had the power to control a large area. So, when news was leaked, many people surely wanted to investigate.”

“Because of this, it attracted many people?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Yes, and Dole became an informant. People wonder who might be behind Dole. We know that Dole can’t do anything like that. Otherwise, why would someone be interested in someone like Dole,” said the man disdainfully.

He thought of something and looked at Jiang Hao. It did seem that Dole had the attention of a “senior.”

“Where is Dole now?” Jiang Hao asked.

“He was captured by a powerful person. Rumors suggest that this senior has already obtained the location of the treasure. Then, she was besieged. She hasn’t obtained it yet. She left Dole in an open space so anyone could interrogate him. She wants to remain clear of suspicion. However, Dole truly is tight-lipped. I heard that he remained silent even when his limbs were broken,” said the man in admiration.

“Are the people still there?” Guan Zhongfei asked.

“Some left, but some felt there might be a possibility of the person behind all this showing up. Also, Dole had quite a lot of ores and spirit stones on him, so everyone’s eyes were on him,” the man said.

Jiang Hao fell silent.

However, his speed increased.

This time, even Guan Zhongfei felt a chill from Jiang Hao.

He was unbelievably fast.

Two days later, Jiang Hao arrived at the edge of Moon Lake.

There were quite a few people there, and their cultivation realms were not low.

“Where is he being held?” Jiang Hao asked a nearby Golden Core Realm cultivator.

“Over there,” said the person and pointed.

Jiang Hao flew over.

It was a forest with chaotic signs of struggle, but apart from a few individuals in the middle, Dole was nowhere to be seen.

Jiang Hao sighed. He would have to ask others.

He glanced at a middle-aged man, who also returned his gaze.

He was at the peak of the Soul Ascension Realm.

“Excuse me, do you know where Dole is?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Why are you looking for him?” The middle-aged man looked at Jiang Hao. “He’s in my team. You’ve captured him, so naturally, I’ve come to take him

back,” Jiang Hao said calmly.

“Your team?” The middle-aged man was taken aback. ‘You’re the one controlling the area with the treasure?”

Jiang Hao smirked and nodded. “Yes, that’s me.”

Something flickered in the middle-aged man’s eyes, and those around him were also astonished.

Guan Zhongfei was dumbfounded. He knew this wasn’t true.

Jiang Hao was deliberately provoking people.

“Is that so?”

“Yes. So, can you tell me where Dole is?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Can I see the treasure?” The middle-aged man’s aura expanded.

At that point, being at the peak of the Soul Ascension Realm made him the strongest person around.

However, Jiang Hao’s fan appeared in his hand, and his figure vanished.

He reappeared in front of the middle-aged man. The fan poised against the man’s shoulder.

An invisible wind blade sliced open the man’s neck, and blood spurted out.

“Do you still want to see it?” Jiang Hao asked.

The middle-aged man’s heart raced. He didn’t dare act rashly.

“Do you know where Dole is?”

“I-I know. He was taken into the lake. Someone wanted to use him to find the location of someone you’re associated with.”

Jiang Hao nodded and headed toward the center.

He didn’t take anyone with him.

In the center of the lake, a group of people surrounded Dole. He seemed unconscious.

Yin Xueni frowned. She hadn’t expected things to turn this way.

What was previously about finding a Golden Core Realm cultivator had turned into a situation involving a group of Soul Ascension Realm cultivators.

She couldn’t leave either because these people still suspected that she knew something.

As for the treasure controlling a certain area, she hadn’t even heard of it.

Using Dole should have been in her favor.

However, things had escalated, and it made her have second thoughts about the whole thing.

But when she wanted to retreat, others didn’t allow it.

“Everyone, it’s worth trying! If there really is a treasure controlling an area, everyone knows the kind of benefit we’ll get from it,” a young man said.

He held a compass in his hand, and a formation extended beneath his feet.

Six Soul Ascension Realm cultivators and eight Golden Core Realm cultivators joined forces.

They believed they couldn’t find the person backing Dole.

“The person hasn’t shown themselves right now. But if we find them, we’ll surely find more opportunities,” said a Soul Ascension Realm woman.

“Hasn’t shown themselves, have they?” said an amused voice came from behind. “Why would I hide? I’m late because I wasn’t informed about this.” Everyone felt a chill.

The man in the lead attempted to turn to look, but a blade pierced through his chest.

“Don’t you know interfering in other people’s business gets you killed?” Jiang Hao pulled out the blade from the body and smiled at everyone.

“You captured my man and tortured him. I’m not unreasonable. You all shared one goal. Now, we tread the same path..”
