Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness - Chapter 2037

Chapter 2038: After Modification: Chapter 1566 Demoness: The Heavenly Note Sect Couple Also Likes to Have Someone Guard the Door_2

Jiang Hao nodded and calmly said, “Then continue planting, maybe the next time I come, I can drink the best Dew of the First Sun.”

Tea Master immediately replied, “I will not let you down, senior.”

After finishing their tea, Jiang Hao and the Heavenly Note Sect left.

Now that they had reached the West, Jiang Hao decided to first find Jing Dajiang and the others.

As for preaching and discussing dharma, it was just an excuse for Jing Dajiang to meet him.

It didn’t matter whether he spoke or not.

It’s better not to waste time and meet them directly.

And give them a lesson in passing.

Of course, if there’s time, he could also meet Lou Mantian.

It had been a long time since they last met.

Jiang Hao had used many identities.

The other party was also unsure of who he really was.

He also had to make a trip to the eastern region, but he had already received the carrot from the Human Emperor.

The main purpose of going to the eastern region was to meet Lin Zhi.

Western Astronomical Academy.

As they walked through the city, Jiang Hao saw a fairy guard sweeping the streets.

When they saw her, both Jiang Hao and the Heavenly Note Sect were somewhat surprised.

Wasn’t this the fairy guard An Xiao?

“Isn’t she supposed to be guarding the gate? Why is she sweeping the streets?” Jiang Hao curiously asked those beside him.

“Why else? The academy must be too dark.” The Heavenly Note Sect glanced at Jiang Hao and lightly chuckled, “Was the academy this dark when you were there?”

“Not that dark.” Jiang Hao thought for a moment and said, “At most, I just made that time’s headmaster Jing Dajiang guard the gate.”

The Heavenly Note Sect: “….”

The headmaster guarding the gate?

The Heavenly Note Sect compared herself to him and thought, wouldn’t that be the same as making herself, the Sect Master, guard the mountain gate?

Wouldn’t that be dark enough?

Not even the demonic sect would do such a thing.

At this moment, the fairy guard An Xiao also saw them.

“Senior, we meet again.” Jiang Hao greeted with a smile.

At this moment, the fairy guard An Xiao had her head wrapped in a scarf, and her clothes had become ordinary, giving off a sweeping woman vibe.

She smiled holding the broom and said:

“It’s you guys again, I didn’t expect you to see me sweeping the streets this time.”

“Why is the senior sweeping the streets?” Jiang Hao asked curiously.

The fairy guard An Xiao sighed, “The academy is too dark, are you going inside again this time? You should be more cautious.”

“Try not to go to the Western Astronomical Academy too often, or you’ll easily get unlucky.”

Jiang Hao smiled and said, “It’s not that bad, but you’re accustomed to it, senior.”

“Whatever job you do, you love it.” The fairy guard An Xiao replied.

Jiang Hao chuckled and said, “I heard the Western Astronomical Academy is searching for something in the Corpse Realm; aren’t you going to seize this chance to make a meritorious achievement?”

“No way, if I go in, I might end up sweeping the streets again.” The fairy guard An Xiao answered.

After all, she had a good disciple who would soon bring her out, then she would be guarding the gate, sweeping streets, and cleaning latrines.

The Heavenly Note Sect asked, “Then why not leave the Western Astronomical Academy?”

“Leave?” The fairy guard An Xiao shook her head, “No way, I’ve worked so hard to get this far, leaving now would mean all my previous efforts were wasted.”

Jiang Hao said, “You could join the demonic sect, like the Heavenly Note Sect, at least you won’t need to sweep the streets there.”

“Do the supervisors there have a fondness for making people guard the gates?” The fairy guard An Xiao inquired.

Jiang Hao was taken aback for a moment.

The Heavenly Note Sect answered, “The Sect Master’s couple has that hobby.”

“I won’t go.” The fairy guard An Xiao decisively refused.

Jiang Hao: “…”

The Heavenly Note Sect looked at Jiang Hao and shrugged.

Seemingly saying that failing to recruit people was entirely his problem.

Jiang Hao could only ask the fairy guard An Xiao, who had replaced her to guard the gate.

Would it be difficult for him to go in?

The fairy guard An Xiao directly contacted that rebellious disciple.

Then she continued to sweep the streets.

Very soon, Yan Yuezhi arrived on the street and saw Jiang Hao and the Heavenly Note Sect.

She bowed and greeted them, “Greetings to the two seniors.”

Jiang Hao nodded and said, “Where is Jing Dajiang?”

“In the backyard.” Yan Yuezhi replied.

“Let’s go, meet him, after all this trouble, it’s just because he wants to see me, right?” Jiang Hao laughed and said:

“Just wonder what he plans to do when he sees me.”

Yan Yuezhi bowed her head and didn’t know the specifics.

But indeed that senior wanted to see him.

“What about preaching and discussing Dharma?” Yan Yuezhi asked.

Jiang Hao waved his hand and said, “No need to be too troublesome. Just ask Lou Mantian to come see me later.”

Yan Yuezhi nodded and finally led the way.

This time, the person guarding the gate was not someone Jiang Hao recognized.

On the way, Jiang Hao curiously asked, “I heard people from the Western Astronomical Academy entered the Corpse Realm. Did they find anything?”

“Yes, in a mountain, they have discovered some rooms, and there are also some documents. Continuing further in should reveal more.”

“So far, it’s all records about the Corpse Realm.” Yan Yuezhi replied.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao nodded.

All of it was information obtained by the Tianji Dynasty, no specific details were known yet.

But Jiang Hao was in no hurry, as he would definitely enter the Corpse Realm again.

To explore deeper things.

Besides, the Corpse Realm had indeed changed; it had been decades since its last opening.

There was no sign of it closing either.

Meaning that if something were to come out, it couldn’t be stopped.

It was indeed different from before.

Soon, Jiang Hao followed Yan Yuezhi to the gate of the backyard.

As per usual, she lightly knocked on the door.

Then the gate slowly opened.

With that, Yan Yuezhi continued to lead the way. When entering the threshold, it unexpectedly moved back a step.

Yan Yuezhi remained silent.

Jiang Hao and the Heavenly Note Sect behind her were also a bit surprised.

They had never seen a threshold move back before.

The two looked at each other.

“There are quite a few tricks at the Western Astronomical Academy,” the Heavenly Note Sect said with a smile.

Jiang Hao smiled awkwardly, “Indeed, it’s a bit too much.”

Yan Yuezhi, however, was adept at this and spent some time getting through.

But after entering, Jiang Hao found they had fallen into a trial.

Only by passing the trial could they proceed.

The Heavenly Note Sect turned to Jiang Hao and said, “Is he initiating a trial for you?”

Jiang Hao shook his head slightly, “He doesn’t know we are here, he only knows Yan Miss is here, so it’s likely a trial for her.”

“Forgive me, seniors, but I can pass through with a bit of time,” Yan Yuezhi softly said.

She wasn’t too worried.

The two didn’t want to be discovered and didn’t directly break the trial, probably wanting to let things take their course.

So Yan Ruyu just methodically broke through the trial.

Half a day later, she exited.

Much faster than usual.

Mainly because Jiang Hao and the Heavenly Note Sect occasionally gave her a tip.

Not long after, the three appeared at the place where Jing Dajiang was.

At this moment, Jing Dajiang was lying in a rocking chair, looking at the sky and sipping from a teapot, casually remarking:

“Little girl, your speed has improved quite a bit.”

The two people originally playing chess glanced at the newcomers and felt an inexplicable sense of dread.

As if they saw an ancient entity, a senior they dared not look at directly.

Involuntarily, they stood up.

Yan Ruyu calmly said, “Indeed, a bit faster.”

“Still too slow. Go out and break in again.” Jing Dajiang couldn’t be bothered to look at her.

Yan Yuezhi said, “Student has something to report.”

“I don’t want to hear it, go break in again,” Jing Dajiang said.

He was tired of hearing the same thing every year, no one came through, and he didn’t want to see it.

However, Yan Yuezhi didn’t speak, just stood quietly.

Thinking there was no one, Jing Dajiang was about to make the two beside him chase her off.

He glanced at them and saw they had suddenly stood up, looking respectful.

What the hell?

Who at the Western Astronomical Academy do you need to show respect to?

Who’s still deserving of your respect?

When he turned to look at Yan Yuezhi, he didn’t see her respectful demeanor but saw a smiling man.

The instant he saw him, Jing Dajiang felt an inexplicable dread.

As if encountering a natural enemy, he shot to his feet.

Seeing this, Jiang Hao smiled slightly, “This place isn’t suitable, let’s change the location.”

With a wave of Jiang Hao’s hand, everyone appeared in a sealed-off courtyard in the backyard.

It was a place even the headmaster couldn’t set foot in.

Yan Yuezhi trembled upon seeing Jing Dajiang and the two others.

Jiang Hao walked to the table in the courtyard, asking the Heavenly Note Sect to sit down, and then sat down himself, starting to brew tea.

He remained silent.

After the tea was brewed, Jiang Hao raised a cup and looked at Jing Dajiang and the others still standing, calmly saying, “You all come to my courtyard, don’t you have something to say?”

This month is the last month of the year, so let’s ask for monthly passes again.

Thank you!!!
