Chapter 448: Appraising The Demoness
The Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment was a success!
The entire Bright Moon Sect seemed to relax.
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked to the spot where the hand had disappeared in the sky earlier. He tore open a crack with his bare hands and sneered. “You want to leave just like that?”
Then, the man entered the crack. Roars and explosions could be heard from within it.
Powerful members of the Bright Moon Sect also went to join various fights.
Strong individuals emerged from various parts of the Bright Moon Sect.
They headed toward the rear.
“Today, none of you will leave alive from here.”
“We, in the Bright Moon Sect, value peace, but it seems you don’t appreciate it.”
The enemies wanted to flee, but unfortunately, they had already lost their escape route.
When they tried to break through forcefully, it turned disastrous.
The Bright Moon Sect came upon them like thunder.
Apart from the ones who had left quickly, there was really no way for them to escape.
Jiang Hao was quite shocked. The Bright Moon Sect was indeed powerful.
It was apparent how difficult it had been to establish the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.
Except for the Bright Moon Sect, the Clear Sky School, and other immortal sects, no other sect could even hope to achieve the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.
At the same time, a middle-aged man stood at the top of the Bright Moon Sect and bowed toward Twin City Peak.
“I am Hao Yue, and I thank you for assisting us in this time of need. May I have the honor to meet you?”
Jiang Hao could sense that the Sect Master was waiting for his response.
“Do you want to meet him?” Hong Yuye looked at him.
“It’s better not to meet him right now,” Jiang Hao said.
His cultivation was too weak. He shouldn’t be seen getting involved with too many powerful people for now. It might attract unnecessary danger.
The reason why the purple energy had such a great impact was because of Hong Yuye’s help. Without her, he couldn’t have done anything.
“Let’s go then.” Hong Yuye turned and left.
Jiang Hao followed her. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from their spot.
Hao Yue didn’t receive a response and knew that the person had probably left. He felt a little regretful.
Under Twin City Peak, Xu Bai and others watched the purple energy soaring into the sky. They were moved. However, they didn’t linger for long and quickly left.
After they left, two people landed on Twin City Peak. One geld a wineskin and the other looked a bit tired. They were Si Cheng and Wan Xiu.
“As expected, they already left,” Wan Xiu said. He wasn’t surprised.
Si Cheng sighed. “I want to see their true power someday.”
“Do you think we can win if we join forces against Friend Jiang?” Wan Xiu asked.
“It’s hard to say. We haven’t fought him.” Si Cheng shook his head.
“It seems that trying to make Friend Jiang remember the other lines of the poem is hopeless.” Wan Xiu sighed.
Si Cheng drank the wine and sighed. “Yes, it seems hopeless.”
Jiang Hao was unaware that someone was still thinking about him. He returned to Star-Moon City.
He was curious about the impact of achieving the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.
“You’ll know in a few days,” Hong Yuye said.
“Can the southern region sense it too?” Jiang Hao asked.
Hong Yuye smiled. “You’ll find out when you go back.”
Jiang Hao didn’t press for more information and instead asked about their next step.
However, Hong Yuye remained silent.
Jiang Hao understood that he would have to figure it out on his own. The Bright Moon Sect’s Dao Conference was still ongoing, so there was no rush to return to his own sect.
There was still a month left until the end of the sect’s mission. During this month, he had to complete the remaining tasks to avoid passing the deadline. He also needed to make a decision regarding Chi Tian’s matter and whether to have Xing make a move.
As far as he knew, Chi Tian was indeed of value. But he wasn’t sure if his senior brother would intervene right now because that would prevent him from going overseas to return to The End of All Things.
However, it wasn’t a problem to make Xing take action against the elder. Hong Yuye’s intervention had already laid the groundwork for his achievement, and killing one person shouldn’t be too difficult.
Moreover, the people at the gathering knew that he was on Twin City Peak, which meant that they would have a deeper impression of him as mysterious and powerful. It should keep him safe for the time being and prevent anyone from probing further.
‘I should have a gathering in a few days to find out the situation with Chi Tian…’ Jiang Hao thought to himself.
With these thoughts in mind, Jiang Hao strolled around the city with Hong Yuye.
Along the way, they saw some small animals scampering about. “Have you completed your studies of the One Heart Palm?” she suddenly asked. After a brief moment of confusion, Jiang Hao nodded. “More or less.”
During these days, he had been studying various spells, including the One
Heart Palm.
“Have you tried it?” Hong Yuye looked at the animals nearby.
Jiang Hao hesitated for a moment. He had indeed tried it out of curiosity, but he didn’t want to tell her. “No,” he said slowly.
Hong Yuye smiled and looked at him. “Aren’t you curious to find out if the One Heart Palm works on others?”
“It would be too offensive to use it that way,” Jiang Hao said.
He didn’t want to try it on anyone, whether they were male or female. It would bring him trouble.
“What about animals?” Hong Yuye glanced at the nearby animals. She looked forward to a good show.
“Senior, you must be joking,” Jiang Hao said.
Hong Yuye chuckled. “Is that so?”
She didn’t press him further and instead headed toward the inn.
In the inn, Hong Yuye sat at a table while Jiang Hao brewed some tea.
After that, she asked him to prepare the bath for her.
When Jiang Hao had finished preparing the bathwater, he approached Hong Yuye.
However, just as he was about to speak, he noticed that Hong Yuye was resting her head on her hand as if she were about to fall asleep.
“Senior?” he called out softly.
There was no response.
He walked up to her and waved his hand in front of her. “Senior?”
There was still no response.
He instinctively looked at her chest, which was rising and falling. It indicated that she was only asleep and not dead.
However, for some reason, he sensed that she was still able to conceal everything from him. He couldn’t sense an aura or even lifeforce from her. He could only rely on his eyes to observe her.
Jiang Hao sat down and drank his tea. He didn’t know what else to do. He could only sit beside her. He didn’t dare to shake her awake.
This wasn’t the first time it had happened, anyway. He wasn’t surprised. If he got too close to her, she would wake up.
Jiang Hao sipped his tea and wondered if he could discover more about Hong Yuye when her defenses were down this way.
He didn’t dare to try to appraise her when she was awake because she would notice it. But now, she was soundly asleep. He could use his Daily Appraisal ability without getting too close to her.
He appraised her.
[Hong Yuye: While she’s asleep, she can wake up at any time if someone gets too close to her or if your aura weakens…]
Looking at the information provided by the ability, Jiang Hao was even more puzzled. In previous appraisals, he had never been able to find out so much. This time, he did get some feedback, but many things were lacking.
Her origin and her purpose weren’t mentioned.
He couldn’t determine if her reduced defenses were due to her drowsy state, or if it was because his cultivation had grown stronger..
