Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1085  Holy Master: Are You Weaker Than Before?

Jiang Hao looked at Senior Sister Miao.

He had been waiting for her to come, but he felt like he preferred it when she was not here.

Miao Tinglian always wanted to talk about finding him a partner or about Senior Brother Mu Qi.

"Senior Sister, you worry too much," Jiang Hao said calmly. "I cultivate every day. I don't have any free time."

Miao Tinglian stared at Jiang Hao and frowned.

"Junior Brother, have you encountered something lately?"

"Why do you say that, Senior Sister?" Jiang Hao was surprised.

Miao Tinglian thought for a moment. "You seem different. Of course, you were distant and aloof before, but you seem sadder now. Are you heartbroken?"

Jiang Hao was surprised at first, but when he heard the last part, he felt that there was nothing else in Senior Sister Miao's mind besides love.

She thought everything in the world was related to love.

For example, if women in the next sect attacked their husbands one day, she would think it was a moment of passion. The other way round was true too. If a man killed his wife, she would think the wife might have cheated in love.

"Senior Sister, you must be joking." Jiang Hao shook his head.

He wondered how people caught such feelings. He would not touch it with a sixty-foot pole.

It would only put him in more danger.

Xiao Li and the others were already a headache to him.

"The Junior Sister I am going to introduce you to has a good background. Moreover, she is beautiful. Look at this portrait. Although she might not be stunning, she's still beautiful. Her personality is also like yours."

Miao Tinglian took out a portrait.

Jiang Hao had no choice but to look.

"If I hadn't protected her, she would have been snatched away by the Heavenly Joy Pavilion," said Miao Tinglian. "I went on a recruitment mission. I fought with them and managed to snatch her back for our branch at the last minute. I worked so hard for this. Would you like to meet her?"

Jiang Hao was about to leave when he remembered that he had something to discuss with Senior Sister Miao.

The girl looked young as if she had just become an adult.

Her hair was tied up in a simple bun, and she looked composed. Her eyes looked a little sad. She was pleasing to look at.

"If I hadn't protected her, she would have been snatched away by the Heavenly Joy Pavilion," said Miao Tinglian. "I went on a recruitment mission. I fought with them and managed to snatch her back for our branch at the last minute. I worked so hard for this. Would you like to meet her?"

Jiang Hao was about to leave when he remembered that he had something to discuss with Senior Sister Miao.

"I heard from Senior Brother Mu Qi that Senior Sister Ming Yi went to your place."

As soon as he finished speaking, Miao Tinglian looked annoyed. Then, she composed herself.

She looked at Jiang Hao and nodded. "Yes. That did happen."

"She might have to make another trip there," Jiang Hao said.

Senior Sister Miao thought for a moment and understood that the person was interested in the Holy Master's divine soul.

"Do you want to meet the Junior Sister?" She pointed at the portrait.

Jiang Hao did not say anything. He stood up and left.

He looked for Senior Brother Mu Qi and led Miao Tinglian to him. Only he could make her stop.

"Junior Brother, if you're trying to lure me to Mu Qi to shut me off, it's useless. I already convinced him," said Miao Tinglian.

Jiang Hao paused for a moment, then turned around and left the Spirit Herb Garden.

Miao Tinglian was speechless.

"Junior Brother, you're really stubborn." She shook her head and sighed before looking for Mu Qi.

"Something strange is happening..." Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Mu Qi was stunned. Then, he composed himself and nodded.

"Alright."

The two of them left the Spirit Herb Garden.

Miao Tinglian also told Mu Qi what she had just heard.

"I think he is interested in the divine soul of the Holy Master. He wants to meet Ming Yi. I wonder if she is still in the sect," said Mu Qi.

"I don't think she dares to go out of the sect with the Heavenly Saint Sect waiting for her. They are still watching us. The Heavenly Saint Sect knows that this place is under surveillance. She'll feel much safer inside the sect," said Miao Tinglian.

"Then, invite her to the forest tonight," Mu Qi said.

"What a shame..." Miao Tinglian sighed.

"Why?" Mu Qi was puzzled.

"Junior Brother Jiang didn't agree to meet the Junior Sister I recruited. She's a good match for him, you know."

...

He did not return to his house.

Jiang Hao transformed into a familiar scholar and headed to the forest outside Senior Brother Mu Qi's house.

Instantly, the Mountain Sea Seal appeared and began to descend.

Half a day should be enough to set it up.

At night, he went into hiding.

He was waiting for Senior Sister Ming Yi to enter his trap.

At that moment, he had to act.

If he was not as strong as before, the Holy Master would crush him.

However, he had the power of the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl and the Mountain Sea Seal.

His chance of winning was high.

At the same time, Jiang Hao sensed something from outside.

"Senior Sister, you said you wanted to meet me to talk about something important?" Ming Yi asked.

"Yeah, just follow me," Miao Tinglian said. "I didn't ask you how you were doing after last time. Are you okay?"

"There are some small problems, but they are all manageable," Ming Yi said.

Ming Yi did not think that Miao Tinglian could help her much because her head was usually filled with matchmaking instead of learning about cultivation.

Although Miao Tinglian was strong and talented, Ming Yi did look down on her. She felt that Miao Tinglian's talent was a waste.

"That's good. If you can't suppress it, I can't do anything to help," Miao Tinglian said.

Because of Ming Yi, her power had been used up. She had used all her defense techniques.

"I will never forget your kindness," said Ming Yi gratefully.

"You can forget about it. It's fine," said Miao Tinglian.

She did not care about that. In the demonic sect, no one survived by believing in promises and favors.

Ming Yi did not say anything.

A moment later, they entered the forest.

The moment she entered it, Ming Yi felt her surroundings darken.

Miao Tinglian disappeared before her eyes.

He did not know where she had gone.

This was bad. She wanted to escape, but…

She was thrown back with impact.

"What's happening?" She looked around.

If Miao Tinglian wanted to attack her, why would she go through so much trouble?

She could have left her in a lurch back then if she really wanted her dead.

Besides, killing disciples in the sect was illegal.

"Who are you asking?" Suddenly, someone laughed.

Ming Yi turned and saw a scholar holding a folding fan.

"Who is it?" Ming Yi's eyes narrowed.

She could not feel any aura.

However, the person in front of her was like a vast expanse that could swallow her at any moment.

What kind of expert was this?

Why was he waiting for her here?

"We meet again." Jiang Hao smiled brightly.

Ming Yi felt strange. Had she seen him before?

However, before she could speak, the other party waved his hand.

A power in her body suddenly dissipated.

Then, the powerful divine soul began to appear.

It was the Holy Master.

She was terrified.

However, the Holy Master was even more shocked than she was.

"You again?" His voice was fearful.

He was stunned for a while before he began laughing. "Gotten weaker, have you?"

"Yeah, I've become weaker," Jiang Hao said.

"Then, are you here to die?" asked the Holy Master.

"You can try," Jiang Hao said.

"Hahaha…" The Holy Master laughed loudly. Then, he gathered his divine soul and was about to make a move.

But...

Just when Jiang Hao thought that the other party would rush over, the Holy Master turned around and fled.
