Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

At the Bright Moon Sect, Xu Bai stood at the entrance. He was dressed in white, and his aura was a little weak.

It seemed like his aura would dissolve at any moment.

“Junior Brother, are you going back overseas?” Ying Shuitian, who was drinking wine, asked curiously.

At that moment, he was the only one present. Ning Yin was not here yet.

“Yes. I’m going overseas. After all, this is only a clone. It’s been too long,” said Xu Bai.

There was a faint immortal aura in his eyes.

“Junior Brother, it’s almost time. Why are you still unwilling to take that step? Are you afraid of failure?” Ying Shuitian asked curiously.

He felt that anyone would be afraid, but this Junior brother certainly was bold.

“Soon… I’m still waiting. Maybe there is a better time for it. There’s no hurry,” said Xu Bai with a smile.

“You want to complete that path overseas?” Ying Shuitian was a little surprised.

“Senior Brother, you don’t know…” said Xu Bai. “Many things have happened overseas, and many things will happen in the future.”

“Something like the light from the Clear Sky School?” Ying Shuitian asked.

“Junior Sister Chu felt it too.” Xu Bai smiled. “Although I don’t know what that light is, something big is going to happen overseas.”

“What kind of big event would that be?” Ying Shuitian asked.

“Perhaps it has something to do with becoming immortals. I heard that the Twelve Heavenly Kings are preparing to become immortals too,” Xu Bai said.

“Twelve Heavenly Kings?” Ying Shuitian was stunned. “I’ve heard the Master mention that no Heavenly King has ever become an immortal.”

“Yeah. If they manage it this time, how big a commotion do you think it’ll create?” Xu Bai asked.

Ying Shuitian nodded. “If that’s true, it’ll definitely cause a huge commotion, but it’s hard to say whether that’ll be good or bad. Although I don’t know much about it, none of the heavenly Kings have ever become an immortal. The huge commotion might be a decree of fate. Maybe not everyone can get involved. You must be careful, Junior Brother.”

“Thank you for warning me, Senior Brother. I’ll be careful,” said Xu Bai gratefully.

“By the way, there have been a lot of problems in the East recently, and chaos has broken out in the North. I feel like there might be more trouble appearing in the East soon. Do you know what’s going on?” Ying Shuitian asked.

“I do know,” said Xu Bai. “But if you want to know more about it, Senior Brother, it’s better to ask the seniors inside.”

Ying Shuitian rolled his eyes at that.

After talking for a while, Xu Bai disappeared.

His body dissipated into a cool breeze and blew away.

Ying Shuitian held the dragon scale in his hand and looked at the sun. In the end, he sighed helplessly,

“Junior Brother still doesn’t understand. How can it be so easy for the Twelve Heavenly Kings to become immortals? If they fail… Well, that’s normal. But if they succeed… That would be a major event throughout history… a kind of event that would change the world. It’s happening at such a time, at that. We’ve fought for so much time, but it seems like we can’t keep up with this new change. Junior Sister Chu doesn’t have much time left. I hope she can prepare in advance.”

As for stopping the Twelve Heavenly Kings from becoming immortals, that was not something that could be done.

They could stop the immortal seed of the Fallen Immortal Clan from blooming, but they could not stop the Twelve Heavenly Kings from becoming immortals.

Firstly, they had a grudge against the Fallen Immortal Clan. Secondly, the Twelve Heavenly Kings becoming immortals would not do any harm to the entire cultivation world.

How could they not accommodate such a change?

…

Overseas, Jiang Hao walked out of the mountains.

It was a pity that there were so many mines here, but he could not stay and dig for ores.

As for what happened inside, he did not care.

The wager of Zuo Daoming’s future was a simple thing.

He did not care about the outcome and neither did the Holy Master.

It was just a way to pass the time.

As for the Black Dragon…

Although Jiang Hao wanted to kill him, he was not in a hurry. He needed to ask him some questions about the Dragon Clan.

There was not much he could ask. After all, the other party did not even know the Human Emperor.

The Black Dragon seemed to have fallen early and had never experienced the time of the Human Emperor. It was rather troublesome.

However, the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl should be able to teach him how to behave.

He should be able to ask about it when he returned.

There was no hurry for now.

He could not ask certain things with the Holy Master around.

“Can we go to the Jade Cloud Pavilion now?” the Holy Master asked.

“Let’s go. This time, it’s all up to you, Brother Li.” Jiang Hao smiled.

Such a place was not suitable for him to go alone. The Holy Master understood the area, so going there together would be much more convenient.

As for leaving a message there, he would decide later.

If the Red Dragon was really there, he did not know what he would say, especially when he did not know which identity to use.

If he used Gu Jin’s identity, would the dragon sense him right away?

After so many years, no one knew how strong the Red Dragon might have become.

He needed to be careful.

Jiang Hao had some ideas.

He followed the Holy Master all the way to the East.

“Brother Li, how many of your souls have been captured?” Jiang Hao asked curiously.

“Thanks to you, six,” said the Holy Master.

“Six? In just a few days? Brother Li, your ability to escape is just average,” said Jiang Hao.

“How many days can you run if you are being chased by an immortal?” The Holy Master asked.

Jiang Hao closed his folding fan. “Brother Li, you’re taking it the wrong way. I’m just an ordinary cultivator of the present, but you’re a powerful existence of ancient times. You’re the stuff of legends, like the Human Emperor and the Ancestral Dragon. How could you be caught by some small immortals?”

“Since I’m an ancient existence, and you’re just an ordinary cultivator, why do you humiliate me like this?” asked the Holy Master.

“We’re brothers. We can say anything to each other,” said Jiang Hao.
