“So, in the end, what the result will be is uncertain for anyone to say.”
“However, if the junior continues to work hard, there is indeed an opportunity to become the top disciple.”
“At that time, things within the sect will be much more manageable.”
“Looking after the elders’ gardens would also be more relaxed and safer than it is now.”
Heavenly Note Sect looked at Jiang Hao and said, “Do you think that after the great era, your Sect Master might have died?”
“It’s not impossible,” Jiang Hao replied.
“Your thinking does have some merit,” Heavenly Note Sect maintained her smile and said:
“Your sect has encountered many dangers, and your Sect Master has to face numerous risks. It’s highly likely he died from severe injuries.”
Jiang Hao nodded.
If the Sect Master was alright before, but after the great era, it’s indeed possible something could have happened.
The enemies at that time were too strong, much too strong.
In the beginning, the sect could still dispatch powerful beings to strike.
But later, there were no more. Everything was maintained by relying on external forces.
To say the Sect Master is unharmed, the chances are very low.
But whether he’s dead or not is hard to say.
Afterward, he stopped thinking about it anymore. There was no need to focus on this matter.
What’s important now is to take care of his own affairs.
Aspiring to be the top disciple would still require waiting.
Although it was imminent, it was definitely not as troublesome as dealing with the Ancestral Dragon.
He must go there before the other party could recover.
“Senior, we should head to Sky Sword Lake first to see what the situation is like there,” Jiang Hao said.
Three days later.
Jiang Hao arrived at Sky Sword Lake.
The location wasn’t very far.
When he arrived, he saw a huge lake with towering mountains on the opposite side.
White clouds swirled around.
It looked like a fairyland.
“This is the place, but there’s nothing special,” Jiang Hao said calmly.
He sensed around but didn’t notice anything unusual.
“Under the lake,” Heavenly Note Sect said.
“But I don’t sense anything wrong,” Jiang Hao said.
Heavenly Note Sect glanced at Jiang Hao, making him feel embarrassed.
It was as if she was saying not everyone was like him.
Indeed, the suppressing strength here was unknown to have been laid down by whom, but it must be profound.
Ordinary fellow disciples would find it difficult to notice.
Even those with slightly stronger cultivation were the same.
Nine out of ten, it was related to the Human Emperor.
After all, it was the Human Emperor who said to look for something.
Standing on the surface of the lake for some time, Jiang Hao was thinking about whether or not to go in and take a look.
But just as he approached, he detected the formation.
It was not simple at all.
To enter quietly seemed not so easy.
Stirring up a little commotion was not a big deal, but he feared being besieged by a group of powerful beings.
It was still best to go in and meet the people here.
But as soon as he entered, he saw a familiar face.
The person also looked over immediately, his face surprised:
“Disciple Gu.”
“Senior Chang,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.
“That’s rather distant,” Chang Wei said with a smile, “Just call me Chang Wei. If you’re willing, you can also call me brother, as we are all fellow disciples, and it’s fine to address each other as such.”
“Or even ‘Friend Xing’ if that is too much.”
“Then the junior will be bold and call you Friend Xing,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.
“As it should be,” Chang Wei asked curiously, “Friend Gu, what brings you here all of a sudden? Didn’t you say you were from the southern region?”
“Just passing by, wanted to visit Friend Xing,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.
At this moment, the fellow disciples patrolling with Chang Wei were curious:
“Who’s this?”
“A fellow disciple I met in the secret realm; thanks to him, Sister Jing and I were able to gain enough opportunity,” Chang Wei introduced with a smile.
Hearing this, the others nodded.
They did not ask further.
“Friend Gu, would you like to take a look inside?” Chang Wei asked.
“Would that be convenient?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Of course, it’s convenient,” Chang Wei said, nodding with a smile.
Then Chang Wei led Jiang Hao and others inside by himself.
On the way, Jiang Hao looked down at the lake surface and said, “I heard there’s something under the lake.”
“This…” Chang Wei was troubled and said, “Some things are sect secrets, not suitable to disclose.”
“I understand, I just heard from outside about a Blood Prohibition Stone suppressing demons, and I thought it might be under Sky Sword Lake, so I came to have a look,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.
Hearing this, Chang Wei was somewhat shocked; it was clearer than what he knew.
It was definitely a sect secret?
Seeing this, Jiang Hao knew for sure that something was indeed underneath.
At this moment, Chang Wei sighed and said, “There is definitely something abnormal under the lake, and it could possibly bring a great crisis to our sect.
Now, the Supreme Elder not only has us on patrol but has also notified people from other sects to come over, planning to explore the depths of the lake together.”
“When is this happening?” Jiang Hao inquired curiously.
“It’s in a few days, the date is set for three days from now,” Chang Wei explained.
With that, Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, “Can I join in on the fun?”
“It’s possible, but it’s somewhat dangerous. This time the list isn’t strict, I can just add Disciple Gu to it, and then I’ll mention it to my master,” Chang Wei kindly offered.
Hearing this, Jiang Hao nodded, “Thank you, Friend Xing.”
A short while later.
Jiang Hao and his companion were taken to the courtyard.
Chang Wei made all the arrangements and once again joined the patrol team.
Only then did Jiang Hao turn to the person beside him and say, “We’ll have to wait three days to see.”
Heavenly Note Sect sat on a seat nearby and suggested, “Let’s have some tea.”
She didn’t seem to care.
As Jiang Hao prepared the tea, he said to Little Wang nearby, “Go take a look under the lake.”
Little Wang was out of the ordinary, especially in terms of spiritual energy.
It wouldn’t be easy for ordinary people to find it.
He could certainly go down and explore.
Perhaps there would be something to gain.
Over the next three days, Jiang Hao and Heavenly Note Sect roamed around the area.
Then they saw Kendo.
They merely glanced from afar and then left.
Kendo also looked over, also with just one glance.
Kendo knew Jiang Hao but didn’t recognize Gu Jin.
The other party was strong, it was just unknown why he had come.
Three days later.
Quite a few people from White Cloud Palace had arrived.
They gathered above the surface of the lake, and under the guidance of Chang Wei and Jing Yan, Jiang Hao stood on the sidelines watching.
Little Wang followed closely by their side.
“Are they planning to go down today?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Yes, they might open a slight crack to see what exactly is going on down there,” Chang Wei replied.
“I heard there’s a good chance something could go wrong, so the Acting Sect Master has put out a word that anyone present who can help suppress the demons will be rewarded with the divine items from below by our very hands,” the fairy guard Jing Yan spoke up.
“Really?” Jiang Hao seemed somewhat surprised.
Little Wang had already gone down to look.
The spiritual energy below was slowly seeping out, and the divine soul was extraordinary.
If it opened up, it would be in its element.
It implied it could handle the situation.
Among those present, there were Human Emperors and True Immortals.
But no Heavenly Immortals.
Logically, Jiang Hao stood a chance of winning.
But he happened to encounter Kendo.
The other party was extraordinary, and if he slew all the demonic beasts with one sword strike, none could compare.
It could cause some damage, and this place was indeed important.
Simply removing the threat was not the best strategy.
“Let’s see who has the capability,” Jiang Hao declared.
“Disciple Gu has an extraordinary aura, and with higher cultivation, you could perhaps give it a try. If done well, making a sensation wouldn’t be less remarkable than Gu Jin,” Chang Wei teased with a laugh.
Jiang Hao nodded in agreement, “Indeed, I might just dominate an era.”
“Exactly, exactly,” Chang Wei nodded with a smile.
Jing Yan also joked, “Don’t forget to guide us when the time comes.”
“Hmm, how about I leave an Immortal Intent for you?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Then let us thank Gu Jin in advance,” Chang Wei and the others jested with a bow.
Jiang Hao laughed heartily.
They chuckled along.
They enjoyed these kinds of jokes.
And knew no one would take it seriously.
Heavenly Note Sect stood by, watching with a somewhat strange expression.
At that moment, those people had already started heading down into the lake, intending to open a slight fissure.
To see what would happen.
On the other side, Kendo stood by the lake, watching.
“Elder, if the demons appear, may I ask for your assistance?” the elder inquired.
“Me, intervene?” Kendo laughed, “Then your White Cloud Palace might have to move away, and the nearby towns won’t be able to rely on the benefits of this place to live well anymore.”
He would directly slay the demons without being able to maintain such a fine balance.
The very purpose of a sword was to disrupt balance.
However…
“Perhaps I won’t need to make a move,” Kendo stated.
The elder appeared puzzled.
But when he asked again, Kendo no longer spoke.
