Chapter 1189: Opening the Thirteenth Branch of the Heavenly Note Sect (1)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Although people mocked him, Jiang Hao did not take it to heart.

This kind of thing will pass with time, so there’s no need to pay attention to it.

If he cared about such things every time, then how could he ever stay here?

Since he was not leaving from here, he had to ignore such things.

Reputation was a fleeting thing. It would not make any difference to him.

Then there was no need to spend time and effort to change people’s minds.

With the arrival of the Great Era War, these people would not care about such things anymore.

These people would be clumps of dirt in a hundred years anyway.

Why bother with them?

Jiang Hao did not think too much about it and continued to take care of the spirit herbs.

However, not long after, a woman appeared beside him.

She was in a blue dress and looked very regal.

Beside her was a man with an extraordinary bearing.

A man with talent and a woman with beauty.

He felt a little helpless.

“Senior Brother Mu, Senior Sister Miao.” Jiang Hao stood up and bowed respectfully.

“Junior Brother, are you feeling uncomfortable here?” Miao Tinglian asked.

“What do you mean, Senior Sister?” Jiang Hao asked.

“I know that you’re suffering. Although I don’t understand it, I know what you need to make you feel better,” Miao Tinglian said earnestly. “The juniors I brought to meet you before were not very worthy. This time, I have chosen women with good backgrounds, personalities, and a lot of spirit stones. Junior Brother, take a look once.”

Miao Tinglian took out the portrait of the first woman on the list.

“The first one is Junior Sister Sisi. She is from the Candlelight Pill Pavilion. She is an alchemist. She is only a few steps away from making it to the Primordial Spirit Realm. She has a good personality, but her appearance… is not the best. Her wealth contributes to that, though.”

Jiang Hao was speechless.

So, she was rich.

Jiang Hao did not know what to say.

‘Am I really such a shallow person?’ He thought.

He had not even spent the eighteen spirit stones yet.

What was the use of coveting so much wealth?

Jiang Hao shook his head slightly. “Senior Sister, please let it go. I don’t have any intention of looking for a partner right now.”

“Just try to get to know each other. It’s not like you have to be partners right away. Only by doing this will other women leave you alone in the future. It would be best if you could find a partner. But even if you can’t, you can just use this as experience,” said Miao Tinglian seriously.

Jiang Hao was speechless.

Senior Sister Miao was really adamant about this.

Unfortunately, he could not do as she asked. No woman could make his heart waver. Therefore, he did not want to deceive other women.

He also could not let his guard down.

“What’s your cultivation realm now, Junior Brother?” Mu Qi asked.

Miao Tinglian wanted to say something, but he stopped her.

She had not checked Jiang Hao’s cultivation realm either.

“Early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm,” said Jiang Hao.

“What?!” Miao Tinglian was stunned.

” Early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm,” Jiang Hao said again.

“Did you hear that?” Mu Qi looked at Miao Tinglian.

“So… the reason you lost your candidacy was not because Han Min came out of seclusion, but because you advanced to a new realm?” Miao Tinglian asked.

Jiang Hao shook his head.

Miao Tinglian was confused.

Jiang Hao said, “Senior Sister, you’re mistaken about one thing. I am still a candidate.”

“But isn’t Han Ming the candidate now?” Miao Tinglian asked. Then, she thought about it. “Wait… you already won?”

Jiang Hao nodded.

A few days ago, he went to the Task Hall to look for the Senior Sister who assigned him missions.

He hoped that she could help him find a witness.

Everything went smoothly.

He had a good reputation in the Law Enforcement Hall, and this was a matter of the candidate for the seat of the top disciple.

He made it seem like a narrow victory. However, Jiang Hao helped open up blocked meridians for his opponent so that it could help his cultivation.

That way, there would not be any resentment between them.

His opponent would be able to advance soon,

“How old are you, Junior Brother?” Miao Tinglian asked in shock.

“Forty-seven.” Jiang Hao sighed in his heart.

“Forty-seven?” Miao Tinglian felt emotional. She then took back the portrait of the woman. “I have to find someone else for you. These people aren’t worthy of you.”

Jiang Hao was speechless.

It was a good thing she backed off.

Jiang Hao did not intend to keep it a secret that he was still a candidate.

The news would spread sooner or later.

It was just a matter of time.

Senior Sister Miao went into seclusion again.

Jiang Hao was happy to have some peace.

After that, he did not think about anything else and started to take care of the Spirit Herb Garden.

At night, he used the Mountain Sea Seal.

This went on for many days. Jiang Hao was not bored with his life. He wanted to survive, so he did everything he could.

A month later, at the end of December, the spirit beast returned with the others.

Lin Zhi was seriously injured.

He had walked back, and every step he took was filled with pain.

Lin Mo and Zhao Qingxue had not come back with him.

They had fled in different directions, but the other two were fine.

They had a lot of talismans to help them, but Lin Zhi had lured a lot of the danger his way.

The spirit beast had only watched as Lin Zhi was chased and injured until he could get up and walk away.

Lin Zhi also knew that the spirit beast was watching from the shadows, but he did not ask for help.

“Why didn’t you ask for help?” Jiang Hao asked as he helped with the healing.

“Lord beast taught me before that I have to be able to walk my own path. If I don’t try to do things on my own, it’ll be harder to do so in the future.”
