Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness - Chapter 1028: The Heavenly Note Sect And The Heavenly Saint Sect Have Irreconcilable Differences

The next day, on the fifth floor of the Lawless Tower, Yinsha looked at the woman with a rotting face. “Is there anything else you need?”

“No. I just want to know when that person will be summoned here,” said the woman with the rotting face.

“Soon. I’ve already mentioned it to the Sect master. He’ll probably be summoned here in a few days,” said Yinsha confidently.

Then, she turned and left.

There was a woman in black robes standing beside her.

When they were outside, the woman in black robes asked, “Senior Sister, when did you report to the Sect Master?”

“Report what?” Yinsha asked.

“About sending Junior Brother Jiang into the Lawless Tower,” said the woman in black robes.

“I didn’t report anything,” said Yinsha nonchalantly.

“You didn’t?” The woman in black robes was surprised.

“What’s wrong? She’s trying to cooperate with us. We can take things slow. She will gradually reveal any information we want if she doesn’t want to lose out. We can just make excuses and tell her that Jiang Hao will be sent to the tower soon.”

“What if she finds out and stops cooperating with us?”

“Then, the deal would have failed. If she stops halfway, it wouldn’t be our loss anyway.”

The woman in black robes nodded.

She needed to think carefully about this matter.

It could cause a lot of trouble.

She was somewhat worried. “But what if she never speaks to us again?”

“Who on the fifth floor hasn’t made that threat before?” Yinsha asked.

The woman in black robes understood.

Jiang Hao sat outside in the courtyard and looked up at the sky.

Apart from waiting for news from the Lawless Tower, he was also considering a fallback plan for the Fallen Immortal Clan.

He needed to see if the Leaf of Concealment could shield him from them.

That evening, he once again felt as though he was being spied on.

Then, he entered his courtyard.

The sensation gradually disappeared but not very quickly.

But it did disappear.

‘It’s useful, but the effect is not as good as what it was in the Lawless Tower. It should be fine for a while…’

Having something like that was already a good thing for him.

As for a permanent solution to the problem, he had to wait and see.

The reason why the other party had not found him for a long time was because of the identity of Smoking San Sheng.

The competition among the twelve branches of the sect was tomorrow.

The next day, Jiang Hao left the courtyard and went to the Law Enforcement Hall.

The arena was there.

The spirit beast followed Xiao Li.

On the way, people from the Cliff of Broken Hearts gossiped about him behind his back. They said that the Blood Wish Path was the only strength that the Cliff of Broken Hearts had.

They looked down on his branch, but Jiang Hao did not care for their words.

It was impossible to avoid gossip, whether one was weak or strong.

When he was almost at the Task Hall, he suddenly felt the arrival of someone powerful right outside the sect.

The Masters of the twelve branches went out to the sect’s border.

There was no fight, so it seemed that they were going there to receive guests.

‘Is it someone from the Great Thousand God Sect?’ Jiang Hao thought.

Then, he continued toward the Law Enforcement Hall.

The referee in the arena was Senior Brother Mu Qi again.

His opponent was a young woman with a calm and composed demeanor. She felt unapproachable.

She was Senior Sister Du from the White Moon Lake.

Jiang Hao had appraised her before. She was proficient in the Five Elements Technique. She was very good at spells.

“I’m Du Yue from the White Moon Lake,” she said politely.

“I’m Jiang Hao from the Cliff of Broken Hearts,” he said and bowed in greeting.

“Begin!” Mu Qi declared.

Jiang Hao felt the surge of magic around him.

Immediately after, flames and water appeared all around him and attacked him.

Jiang Hao unsheathed his Half-Moon Blade and waved it.

However, huge waves and flames swarmed toward him. Thousands of swords whistled toward him from among the flames.

Clang!

They hit the Half-Moon Blade.

He stood in place and deflected the attacks.

After understanding his opponent’s strategy, he finally made his move.

The blade swept through the waves and broke the swords. It cut the flames, and the ground underneath cracked.

Boom!

The entire arena was split in two by a single slash of his blade.

The blade stopped right before Senior Sister Du’s forehead.

Her face paled slightly as she looked at the cracked arena.

“Thank you for showing me mercy, Senior Sister,” said Jiang Hao and bowed to her.

The twelve branches would compete on the same day. Six would be chosen from among them.

Then, three people would be chosen from the six in the afternoon.

Then, two people would be selected. It would all be done on the same day.

Jiang Hao’s opponent this time was a Senior Sister from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion.

She was a user of charms and enchantments.

The moment it began, Jiang Hao made his move, and his blade landed on her shoulder.

“Junior Brother, you really don’t know how to appreciate beauty,” she said.

Jiang Hao bowed. “Thank you for showing me mercy, Senior Sister.”

In the end, only three people were left.

They were Hu Zhongtian from the Law Enforcement Hall, He Mu from the Flowing Waterfall, and Jiang Hao from the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

The three of them would fight in two rounds.

Whoever lost in the first round would fight the third person in the second round.

In the first round, He Mu fought against Hu Zhongtian.

Jiang Hao breathed a sigh of relief. It would be much easier to win the second round.

The opponent would be in a sorry state from the fight before, so he would have an advantage.

Meanwhile, Baizhi received the guest who was a powerful figure from the Great Thousand God Sect.

She frowned. She was surprised to see that the leader of the group was a woman in her thirties. She had an intimidating aura.

The people of the Great Thousand Divine Sect were unbelievable.

The woman had white hair and appeared regal.

At that moment, they saw the competition in the arena below.

“Is your sect having a competition?” Zhuang Dongyun asked.

“Yes. It’s a small competition,” said Baizhi.

“Really? It does look like a match between little kids. Are these the top ones in your sect?” Zhuang Dongyun asked.

“They are the top ones who have won,” Baizhi said calmly.

Zhuang Dongyun was interested. “The people I brought with me are also in similar realms. Would you like to have a friendly match? But my disciples are a little temperamental. I wouldn’t want to risk offending your sect and your disciples. If you are worried about your disciples, please forget I said anything at all.”

Baizhi smiled. “That won’t be necessary. I’m meeting the winners tomorrow, and we can have a simple match then.”

Zhuang Dongyun looked at some people behind her. “Do you feel confident to have a simple match?”

“I can wipe out everyone below in just ten moves,” said a woman at the Primordial Spirit Realm.

“Nonsense!” Zhuang Dongyun said sternly. “We’re only here for a friendly match. Don’t embarrass them.”

The heavenly Note Sect’s people kept quiet.

Baizhi also pretended not to have heard the last line.

“Are you here from overseas?” Baizhi asked.

“Yes.” Zhuang Dongyun sighed. “It was not easy to come here. If it weren’t for the Heavenly Note Sect’s great reputation, I wouldn’t have planned a visit to such a remote place.”

“I remember your sect has a strong individual named Feng Hua. Is she here with you?” Baizhi asked.

“Not really. Are you familiar with her?” Zhuang Dongyun was curious.

“We met once.” Baizhi smiled.

After sending the people to the guest house, Baizhi returned to White Moon Lake.

Jiang Hao looked at the people in the distance.

The first round was over.

Hu Zhongtian had narrowly won.

The second round began an hour later.

He faced He Mu, who was heavily injured.

There was no doubt that he would win.

He Mu looked disgruntled, but there was nothing that could be done. The rules of the match were to be followed. Sometimes, luck played a part in these things.

Many people felt that it was unfair. They felt that Jiang Hao was unworthy.

However, Jiang Hao did not care.

Back at his house, he tended to the heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.

That night, as he rested on the balcony, he suddenly felt a powerful burst of energy rising into the sky.

Then came a roar from the direction of the Law Enforcement Hall. “Heavenly Saint Sect, how dare you attack secretly at night?! You’re shameless! Die!”

Boom!

A great battle erupted.

Jiang Hao was shocked to his feet.

The fight lasted for a long time, and it wasn’t until dawn that it finally subsided.

He heard the news that the disciples from the Great Thousand God Sect who had arrived yesterday were attacked by the Heavenly Saint Sect at night. They were completely wiped out.

The Heavenly Note Sect had done its best to rescue them, but there were countless fighters from the Heavenly Saint Sect, and they used desperate measures to take them down.

In the end, the Heavenly Note Sect was not able to do much as the members of the Great Thousand God Sect were mercilessly killed.

The Heavenly Note Sect and the Heavenly Saint Sect had irreconcilable differences from that moment on.

The news spread like wildfire in the Heavenly Note Sect.
