Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 813: Didn’t You Intend To Kill Her, Junior Brother?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation       Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Hao looked at her. He didn’t expect her to use that tone with him after he had helped her out.

She was so rude that Jiang Hao thought she must have only survived in the Heavenly Note Sect because she had been living in hiding.

An aura suddenly appeared behind him.

Then, a figure flashed past him.

At that moment, the woman on the ground looked furious. Before she could do anything, a sword slashed across her neck.

Her blood splattered all over the ground.

The blue-robed woman was stunned. She felt her vision go blurry.

She didn’t even know what had happened. ‘Why did I end up like this?’

Jiang Hao stood in place and turned to look at Senior Sister Li Min in surprise.

Why had she suddenly attacked the blue-robed woman?

Li Min picked up the blue-robed woman’s storage treasure and handed it to Jiang Hao.

When he didn’t accept it, she looked at him. “Junior Brother Jiang, weren’t you waiting to kill her and take her spirit stones?”

Jiang Hao was silent.

He never had that intention.

However, he reached out to take the storage treasure.

He discovered that the storage treasure contained only a bit of spirit stones.

It was more than 700 in total.

During advancement, Golden Core Realm and beyond took a lot of spirit stones. People in those realms needed pills which cost a lot of spirit stones.

Magical treasures also cost a lot of spirit stones.

Only after reaching a certain stage would one be able to rely less on spirit stones.

Before that, disciples usually had to save a lot of spirit stones to be able to advance to higher realms.

He kept the spirit stones and gave the rest of the things to Li Min.

She accepted it without any hesitation, but she looked at the things as though they didn’t belong to her.

‘Perhaps she thinks that I’ll kill her and snatch her things away…’ Jiang Hao walked away and continued to mine.

They hadn’t been able to find any mineral veins, so he hadn’t earned even one bubble in two days.

If he mined without obtaining even one bubble, it would be such a disappointment.

Li Min looked at Jiang Hao and frowned.

She didn’t understand why he wasn’t trying to get rid of her.

Jiang Hao just continued digging.

The magical branch just now had been a little strange. This place wasn’t as peaceful and safe as he had expected.

Five days passed that way.

Jiang Hao still hadn’t found any ores. The rocks here were getting tougher, and the consumption of spiritual energy was much higher than expected.

He felt that this place was somewhat strange.

‘It is no wonder this place didn’t fall even when other sects joined hands to attack it…

The Blackheaven Sect had joined hands with other sects to attack the mines in the Heavenly Note Sect to find some treasure in this place.

At that time, they had gained a lot, but the mines had remained intact. There were many secrets in this place.

Those people had only scratched the tip of the iceberg.

The closer Jiang Hao got to it, the more he felt that even the power of the Immortal Ascension Platform wasn’t enough to shake this place.

He now understood how terrifying the mines were.

Jiang Hao was still thinking of a way to find a mineral vein when a person suddenly flew up from the waterfall.

“Something has happened,” It was Hai Yun.

He was the weakest among the group. He was only at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm.

Jiang Hao saw that he was injured in many places.

It felt like a tree branch had tried to strangle him.

“What happened?” he asked as he put away the pickaxe.

Hai Yun was surprised to see the pickaxe. He thought this person had come prepared.

“The seniors…” he stammered. “Something happened to them. I only managed to escape because I was too far away.”

“What exactly happened?” Jiang Hao asked.

As the leader, he would have to take care of such things.

There was no other way.

On the path of cultivation, everyone had to be responsible for their own actions.

Danger could come at any time. If he couldn’t avoid it, he would only fall.

Everyone understood this, but not many people accepted it.

“We saw a large tree below. The tree seemed to pierce the mountain. It was difficult to climb to higher areas. We observed it from afar. We thought about going around it, but the tree suddenly started attacking us. The seniors are trapped there, and they can’t escape,” said Hai Yun. “Does the tree have fruits?” Jiang Hao asked.

“No.” Hai Yun shook his head. Jiang Hao looked at him and nodded.

He appraised him.

[Hai Yun: Inner sect disciple of the Ice Moon Valley of the Heavenly Note Sect. He has great talent and is in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm. He knows that you are quite strong, so he wants to lure you down to open the way. While four people fight and find a way, he intends to pluck the fruit from the tree.]

Jiang Hao wasn’t surprised by it.

Many people in the demonic sects were like this, so there was nothing to worry about.

Even the immortal sects had quite a few cunning people among them.

However, he had to go down and look before deciding to save the others.

There were no ores here, so there was nothing to gain by staying there.

Perhaps there was a mineral vein below.

“Let’s go and take a look.” Jiang Hao walked forward.

Li Min glanced at Hai Yun and hesitated for a moment before following him.

“Thank you, Seniors,” Hai Yun said gratefully.

They went down. Jiang Hao was vigilant of his surroundings. He looked at the river.

The deeper he went, the more eerie the river became. It seemed to be gradually losing its vivacity and meandering deeper.

After a while, he landed on the ground and saw that the river had turned black.

When he looked up, he saw that the entire waterfall was black.

“When we first came down, we discovered this. Although the water looks like that, there was no other problem,” said Hai Yun.

Jiang Hao looked at it for a while and didn’t say anything.

Although it looked black, it wasn’t the Black Sea from the Corpse Realm.

“It’s just ahead.” Hai Yun led the way.

After a while, the black water began to gather into a lake.

On the other side of the lake, there was a huge tree that reached into the mountains.

There was a forest under the tree.

“The seniors are trapped in the forest,” said Hai Yun. Jiang Hao walked to the forest and frowned.

It was a curse.

He activated the Heaven Lock Technique.

The towering tree changed. It was as though endless curses had blended together and taken root in this place.

He couldn’t go up the tree, at least not in his current state.

“Where are they?” Jiang Hao asked.

Hai Yun led the way.

He walked all the way inside the forest.

Jiang Hao followed him in. He saw signs of struggle.

Liu Xin and Wei Zhixiang’s feet were bound by ivy and roots. They only managed to block or dodge the tree branches that attacked them.

There was also the aura of the curse on their bodies. Their skin was affected, and their cultivation realms were declining.

The two of them regretted being greedy. They shouldn’t have come here just for the fruit. They would end up dead in this place because of their foolishness.

At that moment, they heard someone approach. They turned and realized it was Jiang Hao and Li Min.

Hai Yun, who was at the back, had stopped in his tracks.

“Don’t close to this area!” Wei Zhixiang shouted. “If you get close, it’ll bind you. The aura is strange here.”

“Wait here…

Li Min stopped.

Jiang Hao continued to walk forward. ‘Wait here. Pull them out when the time comes.”

Li Min was surprised.

Wei Zhixiang was anxious. He didn’t know why Jiang Hao didn’t listen to him. He would die in vain. It wasn’t like he would be able to save them from this. It was already too late to stop him. Jiang Hao had entered the range of attack..
