CULTIVATING IN SECRET BESIDE A DEMONESS

Chapter 1551: Chapter 1329: Visiting the Family that Breaks Up Couples_2

Jiang Hao looked at the other person.

“Did you really leave?” Charm Goddess asked again.

Jiang Hao frowned and spoke softly, “Little Wang, see the guest off.”

Swish!

Woof!

Seeing Little Wang jump up, Charm Goddess was terrified and plunged into the water.

After which she headed deeper.

Jiang Hao watched the black water, his gaze seeming to pierce through the water and see into the depths.

Only moments later did he retract his gaze, there was indeed a crack within.

Charm Goddess was sent through by Little Wang.

And within the crack was an altar, the objects on it Jiang Hao had not seen clearly.

However, after a moment, Little Wang came back, carrying various magical treasures.

“Woof woof!” Little Wang wore a pleading face.

As if to say, you can praise me now.

Jiang Hao nodded at him, “Well done.”

Only then did Little Wang jump off the boat satisfied and continued exploring.

Jiang Hao focused on the magical treasures; each one contained extremely substantial power, albeit somewhat faded.

“These, these are all divine items from the altar,” Duanmu Wuji immediately said.

He had never imagined that the divine items, which so many sought, could be brought up so easily.

Jiang Hao casually gestured, and a Spear +1 landed in his hand.

It had some mud on it, dirty.

After hesitating, he took out a cloth and started wiping it.

“You seem to have a leisurely disposition,” Heavenly Note Sect remarked.

“Senior jests, since it is a divine item, naturally it should not be left in such a state,” Jiang Hao said while wiping.

Soon, a green bubble fell.

[Basic Immortal Sword +1]

A long-missed feeling.

Fortunately, there was no white bubble, or it would be easy to detect.

But since he began wiping, he had also made certain preparations.

“Why did you send Charm Goddess back?” Heavenly Note Sect suddenly asked.

Jiang Hao pondered and replied, “It’s not yet time for her to appear.”

“Why?” Heavenly Note Sect asked curiously.

“Shang An is still too weak, and Charm Goddess is his motivation for cultivation.”

“If he encounters her now, he might stop progressing.”

“And he might face issues with his primordial spirit.”

“Although it might make him successful, it could also completely ruin him.”

“Charm Goddess isn’t someone important, but Shang An still needs to be cautious.”

“With time, Shang An will also become stronger.”

“At that time, though he might still be completely destroyed, if he overcomes the ordeal, perhaps his achievements will be immeasurable,” Jiang Hao answered truthfully.

At this moment, he was still wiping.

But halfway through wiping, a blue bubble fell.

[Cultivation +1]

Quite rare.

He became very excited.

“Do you think there will be something between Shang An and Charm Goddess?” Heavenly Note Sect asked again.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao paused.

Heavenly Note Sect had asked this question before.

He hadn’t given a clear answer.

Because he did not know.

It had been so in the past, and it was still so now.

Would Charm Goddess change for Shang An?

Probably not.

Can love change a person’s worldview?

Most likely not.

After contemplating, Jiang Hao suddenly said, “There’s a slim chance.”

“Where does this slim chance come from?” Heavenly Note Sect immediately asked, “Is it because Shang An doesn’t mind, or because Charm Goddess will change?”

Jiang Hao smiled and said, “It comes from the miracle of love.”

Unfortunately, miracles are considered as such because they are unseen.

Thus, he still wasn’t optimistic about Shang An and Charm Goddess.

Saying this, Jiang Hao continued to wipe the magical treasure in his hand.

Soon the Spear +1 was spick and span.

Finally, two blue bubbles emerged.

Few though they were, for a Heavenly Immortal, to still produce bubbles meant this thing was indeed remarkable.

Regrettably, he couldn’t take it away.

The altar below needed these divine items for support.

Gripping the Spear +1, Jiang Hao’s strength began to pour into it.

When the spear lightened up, Jiang Hao hurled it forward.

Bang!

The spear stabbed into the black water.

Boom!

A loud noise resounded.

The spear plugged back into the altar.

At this moment the distortion began to disperse, and the range of the black water began to decrease.

Duanmu Wuji and his daughter were shocked, but Jiang Hao paid them no heed.

He continued to pick up the magical treasures and started wiping them again.

[Cultivation +1]

[Lifeblood +1]

[Basic Immortal Sword +1]

[Spirit +1]

With that, the wiping was finished.

He repeated the previous action.

Magical treasures then fell from the sky one after another, landing in the altar.

The distortion gradually dissipated.

The black water also slowly disappeared.

After Jiang Hao threw out the last divine item, everything returned to normal,

as if nothing had happened at all.

As for the tree roots, Little Wang had eaten them long ago.

Jiang Hao had not paid attention to it.

“It seems there’s no problem now,” Jiang Hao looked at the calm sea ahead and said with a smile, “Then let’s go to Shangyuan Island.”

“Are you really going, Senior?” Duanmu Wuji was somewhat surprised.

“To see that Meng Qian,” Jiang Hao looked at the two and said, “Aren’t you going to visit your relatives?”

“Visit relatives, visit relatives,” Duanmu Wuji immediately said.

Having such a formidable senior accompanying, he had a high chance of bringing back a spouse.

Of course, he would welcome it.

As for whether it was like bringing a wolf into the house, he was unsure.

After all, the wife was already extremely weak; if they didn’t do something, it really would be too late.

Better to try and die in the attempt.

Besides, what right did he have to refuse the person before him?

“Just lead the way,” Jiang Hao began to brew tea.

Heavenly Note Sect no longer paid attention to the Charm Goddess.

Though curious, they left everything to time.

“What is the highest cultivation in the Hu Family?” Jiang Hao asked Duanmu Wuji.

“There may be an immortal,” Duanmu Wuji thought for a moment and said, “Apart from him, the juniors stand little chance against others.”

“So, you alone could almost rival the Hu Family?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Rival is a bit presumptuous, but given time, I indeed might match or even surpass,” Duanmu Wuji earnestly said.

“That’s not normal,” Jiang Hao said.

“Indeed, it’s not normal. If the family has a powerful son-in-law like this, why would they stop it?” Heavenly Note Sect nodded and said.

“There might also be a chance they want a stronger power for a marriage alliance,” Duanmu Wuji said.

Unfortunately, he was not strong enough; otherwise, why wouldn’t he even be able to meet?

“What is Meng Qian’s cultivation?” Jiang Hao asked again.

“At least ascended,” Duanmu Wuji said.

Jiang Hao nodded, it was certain that Meng Qian had ascended, just not sure if it was to the Human Emperor or True Immortal.

Such strong figures must be cautiously dealt with.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Hao said, “Once we get there, follow you guys and don’t mind us, do as you normally would.

When I need to do something, you guys just quietly stand aside.”

Upon hearing this, Duanmu and his daughter showed no objection.

They nodded in agreement.

Afterward, Jiang Hao conversed with Heavenly Note Sect.

They discussed why the Hu Family disagreed and why they wouldn’t let them meet.

Jiang Hao thought it might be because of Meng Qian.

Given the members of The End of All Things, she likely wasn’t a good person.

This would naturally affect the Hu Family.

“Then the Hu Family parents seem to have given no hint,” Heavenly Note Sect said.

Jiang Hao felt that maybe the parents themselves were bad.

Or perhaps they indeed didn’t favor Duanmu Wuji.

Or maybe Duanmu Wuji had lied.

There were deeper reasons.

Carrying their curiosity, the two arrived at Shangyuan Island the next day at noon.

No one paid much attention to their arrival.

Although the ship was decent, it was just decent.

Not practical.

“Please follow us, seniors,” Duanmu Wuji respectfully spoke.

—

Hu Family.

At that moment, a middle-aged man and woman were discussing something.

Soon after, they heard a servant report.

The originally decent expressions darkened a bit.

“That failure is here again?” the middle-aged man said displeased:

“Really thinks he’s some genius just because he entered the Immortal Ascension Realm?

Our Hu Family still doesn’t value him.

He comes every year, and this year we need to make him understand that our Hu Family is not something he can covet.”

“And that little bastard, really thinks having our Hu Family’s bloodline, we would value him?

Before long, our Hu Family will be the number one family on Shangyuan Island, and then we can pursue even stronger powers.

We might even contact the Twelve Heavenly Kings or have more dealings with Heavenly Tower,” the middle-aged woman said with longing.

The more they thought about it, the more they felt that Duanmu Wuji, who had suddenly risen, was insignificant.

Wasn’t he just lucky, leading his family from a desperate situation to survival?

What’s the big deal?

Even with a few more hundred years, he wouldn’t match even a fraction of their Hu Family.

If it weren’t for the resources their Hu Family had given at the beginning, Duanmu Wuji would have been nothing.

Now that he has some strength, he dares to speak loudly in their presence?

Isn’t it because they don’t let their daughter marry that he can’t find a spouse?
