Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Hao frowned at the question.

After thinking for a while, he shook his head. I cannot answer that question. Why not? Hong Yuye asked.

Because I cannot imagine myself liking the Charm G.o.ddess, Jiang Hao said. In that case, imagine if it was someone you liked, said Hong Yuye.

Jiang Hao thought for a moment but ultimately had no answer.

With the Gu Poison inside him, he couldnt answer such questions. But he wouldnt let such a situation come to pa.s.s.

Jiang Haos silence didnt invite further questions from Hong Yuye.

Soon, the tea was brewed, and its fragrance filled the air. Jiang Hao poured a cup for Hong Yuye and another for himself before sitting down.

What are your thoughts on seeing such a genius? Hong Yuye asked.

Ive never thought that a person could s.h.i.+ne so brightly, Jiang Hao said and sighed. In this world, there is no shortage of geniuses, nor of people who have potential. The world is vast, and there is always someone better. Its important not to be lazy or get riled up over trivial matters.

Hong Yuye, who was about to drink her tea, was surprised. When you see someone so outstanding, your first thought is to be more cautious? Jiang Hao didnt understand her. Wasnt that the right way to think?

Is there no part of you that wants to challenge them and prove yourself superior in your heart? Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao shook his head.

Why should he compete? Making a show was unnecessary. If someone were to envy him and interfere, it would only cause trouble. Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao. How old are you?

Im not young anymore, Jiang Hao said a little regretfully. When he said that, a cold sensation extended over him.

Thirty-five, he said hurriedly.

Hong Yuye put down her teacup and looked up at the sky. You dont have any aspirations. Dont you want to leave behind a brilliant legacy in the cultivation world?

Jiang Hao took a sip of his tea and shook his head. Not everyone has to s.h.i.+ne so brightly. Everybody has their own way. Its good enough. I dont have grand ambitions. This way of life is already the best for me.

Hong Yuye looked at him intently.

Jiang Hao continued to drink his tea. He drank every last bit so that it was worth the ten thousand spirit stones he had spent on this tea.

Jiang Hao felt a change in his body. The imprints of the Immortal Road, which he couldnt remember before, were gradually solidifying.

He didnt dare to think too much and focused on consolidating his cultivation. For some reason, these previously elusive ideas were unexpectedly becoming stable.

When he woke up, the sky was getting brighter. The sun was about to rise. Standing on the edge of the cliff was a person.

A gentle breeze tousled her long hair, and the hem of her robe swayed with the wind.

Jiang Hao walked over to see what she was looking at.

When he looked down, he saw a breathtaking forest.

Have you completed the task I a.s.signed you? Hong Yuye asked.

Its almost done, Jiang Hao said immediately.

He didnt remember what the task was, but saying he was almost done was the best course of action.

Hong Yuye turned to look at Jiang Hao and smiled. How close is almost?

It means weve received some information but need to confirm it, Jiang Hao said.

Information? What kind of information? Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao racked his brain and tried to remember what task Hong Yuye had given him. Besides finding the person behind the secret stone tablet, he couldnt think of anything else.

Did you already buy the September Spring? Hong Yuye suddenly asked.

Jiang Hao didnt understand why she was asking him that. Hadnt he already bought the September Spring?

After thinking for a moment, he sighed and said, Yes, almost. Hong Yuye chuckled and then walked down the mountain.

Shang An initially didnt want to provide this opportunity. Was it something you requested? Hong Yuye asked.

Yes. Jiang Hao nodded.

Why did you do that? Hong Yuye asked.

To better help you with the flower. If its just me, I would attract too much attention, and it might bring trouble, said Jiang Hao.

Youre too cautious for your own good, Hong Yuye said.

Being cautious is always a good thing, Jiang Hao softly said.

He didnt need to fight desperately or compete for opportunities, nor did he need to make enemies over them. That didnt suit him.

Living a normal life was the best option for him now. The future was full of possibilities.

Jiang Hao hesitated. Were Shang Ans actions impressive?

Very impressive. Hong Yuye nodded. He did something that no one had ever thought of. He opened the Immortal Road and offered the hope of ascending to immortality to others. Those who ascend the Immortal Platform will have a seventy percent chance of success, provided they have enough foundation.

Jiang Hao was astonished. A seventy percent chance of success was considered extremely high.

In normal circ.u.mstances, even a thirty percent success rate was impressive. This showed just how significant this opportunity was.

Will the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment provide such an opportunity? he asked.

Hong Yuye shook her head. She has the qualifications, but its not guaranteed. Timing, location, and people are all crucial.

Jiang Hao didnt expect it to be like this. It was indeed an incredibly rare opportunity. Those who missed out on it would truly regret it.

Fortunately, he was still far from ascending to the Immortal Ascension Platform.

How many people succeeded this time? he asked.

Because he had been immersed in meditation, he didnt know the details. Even if he had seen everything, he might not have understood it.

Four people obtained the opportunity, but only three of them succeeded. Hong Yuye walked slowly by the riverside, and Jiang Hao followed. They walked step by step and faced the gentle sunlight.

Who succeeded, and who failed? Jiang Hao asked.

Were there so many strong individuals in the Heavenly Note Sect? He had no idea.

The first to react was Baizhi from your sect, the second was someone from the Mountain Sea Sword Sect, the third was an overseas Heavenly King, and the fourth was from the Clear Sky School. Among these four, the Heavenly King failed, Hong Yuye said.

It seemed like there was nothing to worry about.

Jiang Hao nodded.

He realized that only one person from the Heavenly Note Sect had obtained the opportunity. He didnt know the members of the Mountain Sea Sword Sect, and he had no information about the Clear Sky School.

However, he recognized quite a few of the overseas Heavenly Kings. Besides King Hai Luo, who else was here?

Why did he fail? Jiang Hao asked. Was it because he lacked sufficient foundation?

Hong Yuye shook her head. It was due to the Heavenly Kings fortune. The fortune of the Heavenly Kings is shared among the twelve kings. Although it seems divided, it is a whole. When one of them tries to ascend, its like facing the pressure of all twelve. Thats why he failed..
