Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Becoming an immortal for the Twelve Heavenly Kings was indeed challenging.
Hong Yuye had mentioned it before. It requires all twelve kings to tread that path together.
Moreover, they couldn’t be obstructed by the Heavenly King’s Fortune. Achieving immortality was even more challenging for them than reaching the heavens.
However, this matter had nothing to do with Jiang Hao. He was only interested in the Abyssal Sea. If it wasn’t related to the Dragon Clan, he wouldn’t bother.
People from overseas could do whatever they wanted. It wouldn’t affect him.
After much thought, Jiang Hao wanted to take out the ancient pages and let Gu Jin take a look at them. However, he gave up.
The ancient pages were related to the era. If it was used by Gu Jin, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although the other party didn’t seem like a bad person, appearances could be deceiving.
Even if the results turned out okay, who knew what might happen after?
He himself was held back by his own evil. Who’s to say that evil won’t eventually take control?
It was better to be cautious.
“Is there anything else, Senior?” Jiang Hao asked.
If there were no more questions, he would go find the Fallen Immortal Clan.
It was crucial to stop the Fallen Immortal Clan. Otherwise, keeping Xiao Li safe would be quite troublesome.
Moreover, there would always be people eyeing him. If they started probing further, the consequences would be unpredictable.
It was good to give them some trouble to deal with.
The fluctuations in the Blood Pool made him worried. Even though it couldn’t be activated, the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl might get triggered in other ways.
Gu Jin wasn’t aware of his concerns.
“We talked a lot today,” Gu Jin said. “Be cautious about Gu Changsheng. He has found a spokesperson, and it may not take long for him to come out. He is highly dangerous, so it’s best to find a way to restrain him.”
“Restrain him?” Jiang Hao was puzzled. “Is this danger directed at me or his spokesperson?”
“His spokesperson’s fate depends on their luck. If they aren’t careful, it could be dangerous for them. If handled properly, there will be many benefits for them. First, they need to break free from the opponent’s absolute advantage. They might need a strong person to help them,” Gu Jin said. “The most direct way is to try to find out the opponent’s existence and communicate with them. If they can achieve this, Gu Changsheng will have to reconsider his actions. In simple terms, he doesn’t want anything to happen. As for you, he will also target you because you have my identity.”
“If you won the fight for the fortune, he will definitely target you,” said Gu Jin helplessly. “When I defeated him back then, he turned the Longevity Cursed Tree to endure my torment. Now that you have become Gu Jin, he will certainly come looking for you.”
“But you are still alive and here?” Jiang Hao said.
“But he will find you first,” Gu Jin said.
Jiang Hao was speechless.
“Do you know about the Longevity Clan?” Gu Jin asked.
Jiang Hao shook his head.
“Do you know about the Hundred Nights Curse?” Gu Jin asked again.
Jiang Hao knew about that.
“Find a way to suppress it. Suppressing Gu Changsheng’s connection with this world will make it much more difficult for him to come back,” Gu Jin said.
“How dangerous is Gu Changsheng?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Very dangerous. I can’t tell you all the details yet,” said Gu Jin. “He has been exiled for countless years. It’s uncertain if his thoughts are still his own. He is like me. Although I can communicate normally with you, I might not be me once I leave this place anymore. Gu Changsheng is the same. The place he was exiled to is not a normal place, and perhaps he’s not himself anymore.”
‘So, evil has taken over everything?’ Jiang Hao sighed inwardly. These powerful individuals weren’t normal, after all.
After that, Jiang Hao talked with Gu Jin for a while.
There wasn’t anything important to discuss, so he headed toward the Fallen Immortal Clan.
This time, he gained a lot of information. He realized that he could always ask Gu Jin if he had questions in the future.
The other party was truly a powerful individual with extensive knowledge.
He had told Jiang Hao that the Shangguan family was a branch of the Longevity Clan, and their torment was due to Gu Changsheng.
Gu Changsheng was also behind Gui. To suppress Gu Changsheng, he needed to contact the Shangguan family, and Gui also needed to understand who was pulling the strings behind her.
Jiang Hao’s task didn’t have to be too difficult. He just needed to stall for time.
By then, he will have enough strength to evade powerful individuals.
Even in the Great Era War, he could hide in an ordinary place and continue cultivating spirit herbs.
He didn’t have big aspirations. He just wanted to live life peacefully.
So, the struggles of those talented powerhouses had nothing to do with him.
He was in no rush. He needed to deal with immediate matters first.
Gu Jin breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Jiang Hao.
“In the middle stage of the Immortal Ascension Platform at the age of forty? Is there such a person in this world? But it doesn’t matter now. He is already considered a member of the academy. When he becomes famous, he could even surpass the Clear Sky School.”
Back then, Gu Jin had wanted to lead the academy to glory by surpassing the Clear Sky School. Unfortunately, he hadn’t been able to.
Although he was strong, when he arrived in the South, the academy had to fend for themselves.
“This time, we can be successful.”
“No matter how I look at him, he’s extraordinary. I have never heard of anyone being able to break the fortune vortex…”
Gu Jin closed his eyes and fell silent. It was as though he had never woken up.
At the Spirit Herb Garden of the Cliff of Broken Hearts, powerful forces clashed.
Boom!
Xiao Li, Cheng Chou, and others were hiding under a hut.
Xiao Li covered her head. She was afraid something might fall from above.
“What should we do now, Lord Beast?” Cheng Chou was worried.
“My friends on the path will protect us. They won’t come after us. Don’t worry,” said the spirit beast.
Cheng Chou felt relieved. At that moment, two people walked over to them from a distance.
The spirit beast quickly turned to look.
“Those aren’t my friends.”
Xiao Li saw a man and a woman approaching her.
They exuded a powerful aura. Cheng Chou and the others fainted.
Only the spirit beast and Xiao Li remained conscious.
“This beast seems extraordinary,” the woman said.
“Forget about it. Let’s take these people over there. Everything is almost ready.”
“Unfortunately, Jiang Hao isn’t here. Otherwise, we could have taken him along too,” said the man.
Xiao Li pouted. “You’re all bad people! You even beat up Senior Brother Cheng!”
The two didn’t pay attention to her. Instead, their aura burst forth and surpassed even the Return to Void Realm.
This time, they would be successful.
Xiao Li swung her fist, but the Dragon Pearl on her chest dimmed significantly.
She rushed forward.
Just as she was about to hit them, a sudden red light appeared.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Li fell to the ground.
Xiao Li rolled on the ground. “How dare you bully me! You dodged it!”
“Who dodged?” A red figure landed beside Xiao Li.
Xiao Li looked up at the person in joy. “Sister-in-law!”
