Chapter 1288: As an Elder Brother, He Would Not Make His Younger Brother Suffer (1)

Chi Tian listened to Tang Ya and was curious about something. “Aren’t you worried that investigating them like this will bring trouble?”

The Heavenly Tower had unearthed quite a bit of information and was spreading the news widely.

Since the Five Demons had emerged at this time, it indicated they were desperate.

There was a real possibility they might launch an attack.

Even if they did not dare to a.s.sault the Heavenly Tower headquarters, they could attack other places.

“No. According to our information, they deliberately spread some information,” said Tang Ya after a moment’s thought. “Besides, I often follow Mr. Tao around. I’ve realized that unless someone is a fool, there’s always some scheme behind their actions. The Five Demons have their own purposes. Directly opposing the Heavenly Tower would only make enemies unnecessarily and force Mr. Tao to come out, which would be like seeking death. They wouldn’t come out now and abandon such great opportunities to seek their own end.”

“You’re not as foolish as I thought,” Chi Tian said in surprise.

“Senior Chi Tian, you must be joking. The fact that I refused to lend you spirit stones should already make it clear that I’m no fool,” said Tang Ya.

“That’s where you’re wrong. I’m a dragon with a dragon’s pride. Not lending me spirit stones is indeed foolish,” Chi Tian said mysteriously.

“What do you mean?”

“Figure it out yourself.”

Tang Ya was speechless.

This was another riddle she did not want to solve.

However, she was used to it. She continued to tell him about her findings.

“I heard that the Five Demons have spread the news that they are waiting for Smiling San Sheng to take revenge.”

“Revenge?” Chi Tian was a little surprised. “What for?”

Tang Ya thought for a moment and said, “According to Zhu Shen’s speculation, they might be trying to gamble on whether Smiling San Sheng would turn up. Supposedly, Smiling San Sheng is known for his vengeful nature, and with the Great Era approaching, it will be more dangerous to venture out. Thus, the best time for revenge is the period before the Great Era. If they spread the news widely and Smiling San Sheng doesn’t show up, it would mean he is a coward despite his historical reputation.”

“That makes sense. But Smiling San Sheng isn’t a fool. He might not really appear,” said Chi Tian.

The Great Era was only a few years away.

Though it might take up to ten years, it could start in two or three years.

No matter how capable Smiling San Sheng was, he could not compete against one person at the peak of the True Immortal Realm and three late-stage True Immortals in such a short time.

It was not just about a gap in the cultivation realm but also a gap in understanding the Dao, which was crucial. That was the key.

After hesitating for a moment, Chi Tian felt that he should still pay attention to it.

After a moment of hesitation, Chi Tian decided it was best to keep an eye on the situation. If a real battle ensued and his elder brother was at a disadvantage, he could lend his full support.

If, by chance, he was heavily injured while lending a helping hand, it would not be too much to ask to stay at the Jade Cloud Pavilion. His elder brother would not let him down.

…

After Hong Yuye left, Zheng Shijiu and the others woke up.

There were no problems with the team, and the treasure was also safe. They continued on their journey.

They remained vigilant along the way.

Jiang Hao sat in the carriage. He was no longer comprehending the sixth form of the Heavenly Blade. Instead, he was reading the Nine Forms of the Wandering Dragon. While studying it, he also refined the Primordial Heavenly Blade.

His Dao intent could make the Heavenly Blade more powerful. The stronger the Dao’s aura, the greater its might.

Unfortunately, the Longevity Fruit had quietened down. If he could continue observing and comprehending the Dao, he would become even stronger.

Focusing on the spear techniques, Jiang Hao found them not that difficult to learn.

Perhaps it was because he had learned the Human Emperor’s Sword Technique and the Dragon Transformation Skill that he felt that he could learn everything faster.

With a deep understanding of basic moves and control over his vital energy and blood, everything became simpler.

The more meticulous his control over his power, the more he gained

At this point, even the past Xu Bai might not match him.

The nameless manual, the Fortune of the West, and the Human Emperor’s Sword Technique were all techniques that revolved around one’s control.

That was especially true for the nameless manual, which he had yet to master fully.

After looking at the spear technique, Jiang Hao closed his eyes and began to study it in his mind.

The first move of the Nine Forms of the Wandering Dragon was the Hidden Dragon Rising from the Abyss.

Jiang Hao could feel the roar of A True Dragon bursting out from his body.

It stood in the sky and turned into endless light and fire.

The second move, Bright Light, bloomed high and descended like a falling star.

A single strike felt like the sea. The power roared like a tsunami.

The third move, the True Dragon Swings its Tail, further astounded Jiang Hao with its powerful momentum.

After performing three moves, Jiang Hao slowly opened his eyes.

He was shocked.

“What a powerful aura…”

Although he did not use it, the power of the first three moves was evident.

He wondered if the entire Heavenly Note Sect could match such a spear technique.

The gifts from Hong Yuye, though not as powerful as before, were still incredibly strong.

If the spear techniques were this formidable, the fist techniques must be equally impressive.

However, mastering them all would require a lot of time, so there was no rush.

Around late December, Jiang Hao had basically mastered the first three moves of the Nine Forms of the Wandering Dragon.

Unfortunately, no one had come by recently, so he could not test the spear techniques’ actual power.

His focus was not on deeply studying these techniques but rather on the seven forms of the Heavenly Blade and the techniques of the Hong Meng Heart Sutra.

“Just a few more days until we return to the sect,” Zheng Shijiu said.

Despite no issues during their journey, they couldn’t afford to let their guard down.

A moment of relaxation could lead to sudden death.

Jiang Hao also heaved a sigh of relief. After this was over, he could take the time to study the arts of the Hong Meng Heart Sutra.

However, just as he began to feel at ease, he sensed a formidable sword intent approaching.

It made him wary.

Who could it be?

As the group moved forward, Jiang Hao saw a man in white watching them.

Though he didn’t see a sword, he instantly recognized him as a sword cultivator.

Upon seeing the man’s face clearly, he was even more certain.
