Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1310: Up To His Two Brothers (1)

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The South used to be the safest place once.

About fifty years ago, Jiang Hao had appeared.

According to his alias, Jing, that was when he had come to the South.

It was from then on that the southern region began to undergo uncontrollable changes.

The biggest change was that danger began to lurk everywhere.

Then, the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, the Earth Extreme Silent Pearl, and the Heavenly Extreme Dream Pearl appeared.

There was also Gu Changsheng and others.

The southern region, from its beginnings as the safest place, became the most dangerous area.

Later, all these were suppressed and subdued.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Logically, the southern region should have returned to its safe state, especially since powerful cultivators emerged in other regions from time to time.

It seemed that southern cultivators loved peace the most, and as such, experts never roamed around.

Before the Great Era arrived, hiding in the South was the safest and best way to become stronger.

But…

Cultivators indeed grew stronger, but so did those terrifying beings.

In the Great Era, all beings were equal.

“You don’t have to worry so much. Usually, dangerous objects and entities are always suppressed the moment they emerge. Since they’re already sealed, it won’t be a big problem,” said Kendo. “There’s no need for you to worry about this. Whether you’re afraid or not, the result is the same. You might as well go home and burn some incense and pray.”

“True.” Bi Zhu nodded. It made sense. “I’ll go pray to my ancestors tonight.”

“Can we now go and get the spirit beast egg?” Kendo asked.

“No problem. I’ll lead you there right away. But can we deceive her?” Bi Zhu asked.

“That depends on her cultivation. If she’s in your realm, it shouldn’t be a problem,” Kendo said.

Bi Zhu nodded with a smile.

Then, she led the way.

“Senior, have you heard of Smiling San Sheng?” Bi Zhu asked curiously.

“How could I not have heard of the person who led the Twelve Heavenly Kings to become immortals? But those old beings… that’s a different story,” said Kendo.

“Then, have you heard that the Five Demons overseas are targeting Smiling San Sheng?” Bi Zhu asked again.

“I’ve heard a bit. This is inevitable. Any strong person, while growing, will face ‘attention’ from his ‘Seniors.’ If they can keep going, they can go far. If they stumble… Then their path ends,” said Kendo with a smile. “The number one in the world… Before he became that, he might have been fragile. Do you really think the cultivation world lacks geniuses? It never does. It’s just that some exceptionally talented people die young. Sometimes by accident, and other times, by design.”

Bi Zhu nodded. “I think so, too.”

“But I think Smiling San Sheng might go,” said Kendo.

Qiao Yi listened quietly. She was curious, so she asked, “If Smiling San Sheng isn’t their match, why would he go and seek them out?”

“He advanced so quickly. What if he becomes a Heavenly Immortal in one go?” Kendo said.

Bi Zhu was stunned.

“I’m just kidding! It’s impossible to become a Heavenly Immortal so quickly.” Kendo shrugged. “But if he doesn’t go, it’ll harm his reputation as the number one in the world. I hope he goes and wins.”

“What about the people hiding in the shadows to ambush him?” Bi Zhu asked.

“People in the shadows? You’re too young right now to know much. You know so little at the age of eighteen.” Kendo sighed.

“Then, Senior, please enlighten me,” Bi Zhu said seriously.

“That’d cost you a hundred thousand spirit stones,” said Kendo.

Bi Zhu gave him a storage treasure full of spirit stones.

Kendo looked at it and shook his head. “Young people these days are so wealthy.”

He put away the spirit stones.

A hundred thousand spirit stones were not much for him, but he liked seeing others being generous.

“You all only know that Smiling San Sheng is unmatched in his generation and will inevitably be targeted by strong people. But you don’t know that some strong people in the shadows, who have no hope, are willing to do him a favor. Everyone has different choices. Suppose you are a peerless genius running out of time, with countless people wanting to kill you for your secrets, you might have someone powerful willing to risk their lives to buy you some time. Do you think you will open a path for him when you reach the Great Dao?”

Bi Zhu suddenly understood.

Some people wanted to kill the geniuses from getting ahead, while others wanted to support them.

She was the same.

For a moment, she had not thought of it herself.

The main reason was that the person had reached such a height.

“But isn’t it very difficult?” Bi Zhu asked.

“Yes, it’s difficult. Such people usually don’t have the strength to suppress an entire region. But among such people, there’s a group of outliers,” Kendo said with emotion. “You should know about the Astronomical Academy, right?”

Bi Zhu immediately thought of the three seniors she had met when she became an immortal.

Qiao Yi also thought of them.

“The same academy which sees Smiling San Sheng as their long-lost senior?” Bi Zhu asked.

“Yes.” Kendo nodded. “As long as they find out that Smiling San Sheng is heading overseas, they’ll definitely follow. Then, who would dare to make a move? Those people would definitely give up their own opportunities just to help Smiling San Sheng. In short, this group is not to be messed with.”

Bi Zhu nodded.

This was big news. She could share it at the next gathering.

Thinking this way, Bi Zhu decided to get more information from him.

“For the sake of the spirit stones that you gave me, I’ll give you a piece of advice. It’s best not to provoke the Heavenly Saint Sect for now.”
