Chapter 1153: Demoness: What Kind Of Person Do You Plan To Marry? (1)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Hao descended from the mountain peak.

He had already told Xuanyuan Tai about Hu Yuexin. Whether he could fight her would depend on the Blackheaven Sect’s strength.

If he could not withstand her power, Jiang Hao would not be able to do anything about it.

The Grand Earth Emperor had to fight this on his own. No emperor grew up hiding behind others.

If one wanted to become a true emperor, one had to have the determination and strength to overcome all difficulties.

It did not matter if he was a Grand Earth Emperor or someone with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment. They had to rely on more than their titles alone.

They could not be cowardly, ignorant, or foolish.

Jiang Hao was afraid of the dangers outside, so he did what he could to stay safe and tried not to depend on others.

It was a pity that he could not see the dragon’s soul in the Xuanyuan Sword this time.

The dragon did not know much.

Although he could roughly understand what was going on with the Dragon Clan, he knew nothing about their whereabouts or the Archean Abyss Dragon Pearl.

The new dragon, in contrast, had no value.

But Jiang Hao had also gained something from this trip. He had obtained the map of the Blackheaven Sect.

He had also obtained the tokens.

They could move freely within a limited area in the sect.

No one would target them.

The Great Earth Emperor was not someone small in the Blackheaven Sect.

As for the experts, they had not arrived even after Jiang Hao had finished talking to the Grand Earth Emperor.

He thought they had left the Grand Earth Emperor to take charge by himself instead of protecting him all the time.

When they arrived near a lakeside pavilion, Jiang Hao brewed some September Spring for Hong Yuye.

“Senior, please sit here and rest for a while. I’ll go and find news about Daoist Feng Hua for you,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.

Hong Yuye did not refuse. She sat down and picked up her teacup.

She started drinking tea.

Jiang Hao was delighted. He did not have to worry about her at the moment.

He quickly left. He was looking for the person he had seen earlier.

After using his appraisal ability, he found out that four others were marked as well.

After confirming the location of the four people, he returned to the pavilion.

“Did you find any clues?” Hong Yuye asked.

“Yes, but we still need to wait for the fish to take the bait,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.

Then, he sat down and began to drink tea. He had bought desserts from the Blackheaven Sect and placed them on the table.

He was worried about the Spirit Herb Garden back in the sect.

“You can’t stop thinking of your sect?” Hong Yuye asked.

“I’m worried that the spirit herbs will be damaged, and the sect will blame me. They will punish me and send me to the mine again, and I won’t be able to take care of your flower, Senior,” he said.

Hong Yuye chuckled. “You’re teaching someone from the Spirit Herb Garden?”

“Junior Brother Cheng Chou?” Jiang Hao asked.

Seeing that she did not speak, he continued, “Not really. Junior Brother Cheng Chou is a good person. He’s down-to-earth and hardworking. Although he’s a little slow, he has a good understanding of things in the sect.”

“Where do you think his limit lies?” Hong Yuye asked.

“Limit?” Jiang Hao thought for a moment and said, “It might be somewhat difficult for him to reach the Golden Core Realm, but it’s not impossible. As for the rest… Who knows?” Jiang Hao sighed. “Only by grasping the present can one go further. Junior Brother Cheng Chou also understands this principle, so his pace is very steady. He’s not impatient.”

“What about you?” Hong Yuye suddenly asked.

“Me?” Jiang Hao did not understand what she meant.

“Where do you think your limit lies?” Hong Yuye asked softly as she looked at him.

“I don’t know.” Jiang Hao shook his head.

He really didn’t know where his limit lay. All he knew was that he wanted to live life unbothered.

How long did he have?

As the sun and the moon alternated, the four seasons changed. Everything changed.

“Do you want to live?” Hong Yuye asked.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.

“Do you want to live forever?” Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao lowered his head in thought.

“If you could live forever, what do you think your future would be like?” she asked as she drank her tea.

‘Better than this…’ He thought but did not say it aloud.

As for the rest, he did not know.

Perhaps he would watch the people around him die of old age.

Cheng Chou, Lin Zhi, Chu Chuan, Xiao Li, and the spirit beast would be gone one after the other with time.

Those who mocked and hated him would all be buried beneath the earth.

Everything would be left in the past.

He would be the only one going against the current. The future sounded rather lonely.

“If you can live forever, what kind of person do you plan to marry?” Hong Yuye asked.

Jiang Hao thought about it and shook his head.

He had never considered such a question.

At the moment, it was an ordeal to just survive. Even so, the future was still dark.

He had thought a lot about becoming an immortal. He had convinced others to help him. But he had no idea what he would face when the moment arrived.

He just had to face it when it happened.

Even if he knew nothing about the path ahead, he still had to look up to the sky and step on the path of immortality.

“Perhaps when that day comes, I will know,” Jiang Hao said.

He was only thinking about the present at the moment.

Hong Yuye did not ask anything further.

They drank tea and ate pastries.

Jiang Hao quietly waited for Hu Yuexin to make her move.

Three days later, Jiang Hao opened his eyes and smiled.

“The fish is moving. Looks like I have to prepare a way out for her.”

After saying that, Jiang Hao stood up and bid farewell to Hong Yuye.

After a while, two men and two women appeared outside the pavilion.

They fell unconscious to the ground.

Jiang Hao asked for a concealment array from Hong Yuye.

If the four people were placed in four different positions, they would not be able to see or sense each other.
