In early June, Jiang Hao stood before the peach tree and noticed that it had started to flower and bear fruit again.

Moreover, the weather had become slightly hotter.

The heat would become more apparent in the summer, but it was hard to feel it within the sect during the winter.

He appraised the peach tree and found that it still needed three more incarnations to become a divine tree.

‘It seems becoming a divine tree will take another decade or so… It’s alright, but I’m afraid something unexpected might happen during that time.’

After that, Jiang Hao woke the spirit beast, and they headed to the Spirit Herb Garden.

“How are Chu Chuan and the others?” Jiang Hao asked.

Things had settled down now, and he finally had the time to pay attention to their progress.

The matter with the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl might bring a lot of trouble. Fortunately, he was prepared and didn’t need to worry too much.

He needed to wait to see how the others would respond.

However, he needed to find a way to attend the Bright Moon Sect’s Dao Conference.

He hoped it wouldn’t ruin the impression he left at the last gathering.

“Chu Chuan has advanced to the eighth stage of the Lifeblood Refinement Realm, ” said the spirit beast.

“So quickly?” Jiang Hao was surprised.

“Yesterday, he told us that he had become an inner sect disciple. He said he’s different now and told Xiao Li to bring it on. Then…”

“Then what?”

“Well… he’s getting his teeth fixed.”

Jiang Hao smiled. While Xiao Li was also at the eighth stage of the Lifeblood Refinement Realm, she was far from an ordinary disciple in the same realm.

However, Chu Chuan’s progress was remarkable.

“Has anyone been teaching Xiao Li lately?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Ye. She often goes to that stern person’s house, and she insists on taking me along. But every time, she falls asleep.” The spirit beast sighed. “Master, that person shows no respect for me.”

“He is my Master,” said Jiang Hao.

“Oh, then I should show him a little respect,” said the spirit beast.

“Is Xiao Li willing to go there?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Not very,” the beast said.

“Why?”

“It’s a bit far from the cafeteria.”

Jiang Hao nodded.

He decided to have Cheng Chou inform Xiao Li that if she could advance to the ninth stage soon, then she might make it to the Foundation Establishment Realm by the end of the year. That way, she won’t have to keep listening to the teaching every day.

“What about Lin Zhi?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Very stable, ” said the spirit beast.

“Under the guidance of me, Lord Beast, he can now take a hit without being injured.”

“How’s his cultivation?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Still at the first stage of the Lifeblood Refinement Realm. Many people in the sect feel that he’s a waste of resources. Some are clamoring to ask seniors to intervene or report directly to the Law Enforcement Hall,” the spirit beast said.

Jiang Hao wasn’t concerned. His Master had allowed Lin Zhi to stay.

Which inner disciple would dare to go against the Cliff Master’s orders?

Even True Disciples wouldn’t dare to challenge the Master’s decision.

As for the Law Enforcement Hall, they had no authority over the different branches.

This was the Cliff of Broken Heart’s internal matter. It was beyond the jurisdiction of the Law Enforcement Hall. They wouldn’t step in until a disciple was physically harmed.

“At what stage is he at for the Sun-Moon Lifeblood Refinement Cultivation Technique?” Jiang Hao asked.

“At the fifth stage. Although he feels more star energy entering his body, his cultivation realm hasn’t increased much,” said the spirit beast.

Jiang Hao nodded. It seemed that the spirit beast hadn’t been slacking off in its duties. On the contrary, it seemed to enjoy it.

When they arrived at the Spirit Herb Garden, a communication talisman appeared before them.

It seemed the Cliff Master wanted Jiang Hao to meet him. ‘What’s the matter this time?’

Jiang Hao didn’t hesitate. He rushed over immediately.

He found Han Ming, Mu Qi, Xiao Li, and Ning Xuan, along with a few other rarely-seen seniors.

“Senior Brother Jiang.” Xiao Li rushed over to him.

Jiang Hao introduced her to the others one by one. He led her to Han Ming last.

“You can call him Senior Brother Han,” Jiang Hao said.

“Senior Brother Han, h.e.l.lo,” Xiao Li said in greeting.

Han Ming looked at her. “In the future, if you have any questions about cultivation, you can ask me. Although my strength is average, I can still offer some guidance. As for combat tips, I can help you much better in that aspect. Senior Brother Jiang doesn’t have much combat experience.”

“Indeed, Junior Brother Han’s strength and abilities are beyond doubt,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.

Xiao Li nodded. She was thinking about going to the Spirit Herb Garden when she was done here. Cheng Chou had gone out of the sect. He promised her he would bring her some delicious food.

After a short while, they all entered Ku Wu Chang’s courtyard.

Ku Wu Chang got straight to the point. “The sect has already decided. In a few months, we will be going to the Bright Moon Sect. As I will be leading the team this time, I can take a few more people with me. From Lifeblood Refinement Realm, I’m taking Xiao Li along. From Foundation Establishment Realm, Jiang

Hao. From Golden Core Realm, Mu Qi and Jiu Wu. And from Primordial Spirit Realm, Ning Xuan and Tian Li. Be prepared. We might depart at any time in the coming months.”

Jiang Hao was surprised. This was different from what he had expected. “Why isn’t Senior Brother Han included?” Xiao Li asked softly.

“Because he’s too qualified,” Mu Qi said with a smile.

“Oh.” Little Li nodded. “Senior Brother Han does seem really amazing.”

She was often at the Spirit Herb Garden. Miao Tinglian and Mu Qi also visited the garden frequently.

They knew Han Ming quite well.

Han Ming smiled and felt proud of himself when he heard their praises.

Jiang Hao saw it now. Han Ming, at twenty-seven, was fundamentally still the same as he was years ago.

If someone complimented and acknowledged him, he became approachable.

But why was he chosen to go along? That left him completely puzzled.

This journey wouldn’t just take a few months. How would the Law Enforcement Hall agree to it?

And it wasn’t part of his plan.

Xiao Li didn’t mind. It would be a chance for her to go out and explore.

Though the others were surprised, seeing Jiang Hao and Xiao Li arrive had prepared them mentally.

They didn’t say much.

After all, most of them were going because their master was leading them.

Ku Wu Chang dismissed them after that.

Jiang Hao followed the seniors and left. However, he returned to his master’s house after a while again.

“Do you need something?” asked Ku Wu Chang. He wasn’t surprised to see Jiang Hao back here.

“Master, can I request to give my spot to someone else?” asked Jiang Hao.

“To whom?” asked Ku Wu Chang.

“Junior Brother Chu Chuan,” he said.

“Chu Chuan?” asked Ku Wu Chang with a frown. “Why don’t you want to go?”

“There’s quite a bit of work in the Spirit Herb Garden, and I might need to stay behind to take care of it.”

Ku Wu Chang looked at Jiang Hao. He was silent for a long while, then he said, “Alright.”

Jiang Hao thanked him and left. He felt that his master could remove his name from the Law Enforcement Hall’s suspect list.

However, he felt that it was safer for him to be on the suspect list and inside the sect. He had offended too many people.

If not for the list, the sect would have sent him on various missions. It would have been dangerous for him.

Three days later, the list of names for the trip to the Bright Moon Sect was revealed. Many were chosen from the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

From the Lifeblood Refinement Realm, the cliff had two names.

One was Xiao Li and the other was Chu Chuan. Both had recently become inner sect disciples. And both were quite young.

“Senior Brother Jiang, are you not coming with us?” Xiao Li asked with concern.

Jiang Hao nodded. “Take the beast with you.”

“Really?” Xiao Li smiled.

“Master, have you finally discovered my potential?” asked the spirit beast.

“Get used to the outside world and evaluate Chu Chuan’s progress on the way. I also need you to do something important.”

“What is it, Master?” the spirit beast asked.

“When you arrive at the Bright Moon Sect, find a place and activate the ring like I taught you, ” said Jiang Hao..
