Chapter 1583: Chapter 1345 Demoness: Did You Think It Was a Coincidence Back Then?
Hundred Flowers Lake.
The fragrance of flowers pervaded every corner of the air.
Although each flower at Hundred Flowers Lake was fragrant, the array did not feel chaotic, only layered.
From light to intense, and quickly dispersing.
It was not off-putting.
Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Jiang Hao had no significant thoughts in his mind.
All of this was somewhat unexpected.
It rendered him unable to think, feeling like everything before was chaotic.
The person in front of him had directly shattered his existing perceptions.
“Is my question hard to answer?” the Heavenly Note Sect asked.
“Senior, you have misunderstood,” Jiang Hao replied, bowing his head.
“Misunderstood?” the Heavenly Note Sect laughed, “What are you referring to?”
“Junior never said that Senior was dead,” Jiang Hao answered.
“Oh?” the Heavenly Note Sect said with a smile, “Then what did I hear?”
“Senior heard ‘Sect Master,’ but in Junior’s eyes, Senior has always been Senior, not the Sect Master,” Jiang Hao replied.
“So you mean to say, you plan to betray the sect?” the Heavenly Note Sect asked.
“That naturally depends on Senior’s thoughts,” Jiang Hao responded, his head still bowed earnestly.
This answer left Heavenly Note Sect silent for some time before saying,
“So it seems, whatever I ask you to do, you will do?”
“Naturally,” Jiang Hao nodded.
Heavenly Note Sect chuckled, “You’re quite good at securing yourself a way out.”
Jiang Hao did not answer.
He had no choice but to respond in such a clumsy way.
If the other party didn’t care, then he was fine.
If the other party did care, however he answered would be problematic.
Heavenly Note Sect did not continue to press these questions, making the other party feel embarrassed was enough.
After a moment of silence, she asked, “Don’t you find it puzzling?”
“Puzzling,” Jiang Hao responded.
A powerful senior had suddenly become the Sect Master.
How could he not be puzzled?
And it was a perception of nearly a hundred years, suddenly shattered, which was not easy to endure.
“Won’t you ask?” the Heavenly Note Sect asked.
After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Hao looked at the person before him and asked, “Why did Senior choose to hide it?”
The Heavenly Note Sect placed the tea set on the table and said, “Let’s make tea.”
Hearing this, Jiang Hao entered the pavilion, sat down, and started making tea.
But he couldn’t find the tea leaves.
He dared not ask, only managing to get the tea leaves himself.
Following this, the Heavenly Note Sect finally spoke, “Did I
ever invite you here to have tea?”
“Yes,” Jiang Hao nodded.
“Was it that I told you you wouldn’t come yourself?” the Heavenly Note Sect asked again.
Jiang Hao continued making tea while nodding.
“Since both are true, why am I the one hiding? I simply didn’t reveal my identity,” the Heavenly Note Sect said calmly.
For a moment, Jiang Hao felt that made sense.
But…
That time’s invitation for tea, presumably, wasn’t for anything good.
How could he dare to come?
Yet he could not refute.
The two fell silent for a while.
Once the tea was ready,
the Heavenly Note Sect finally said, “Aren’t you curious why I went to the Cliff of Broken Hearts that day?”
“Which day?” Jiang Hao asked.
Hearing this, the corners of the Heavenly Note Sect’s mouth twitched into a smile, but for some reason, Jiang Hao felt a chill.
As if he was about to be sent flying at any moment.
“Remember which day it was?” the Heavenly Note Sect asked.
“I remember,” Jiang Hao nodded.
It certainly must have been the first time they met.
Thinking back to that time, Jiang Hao felt strange.
Prone to wild thoughts.
But why would she have come to the Cliff of Broken Hearts that day?
He had never considered this.
“Was it because there was a problem with your cultivation?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Someone ambushed me,” the Heavenly Note Sect began, “After 60 years of secluded cultivation, that day someone bypassed everything and came to Hundred Flowers Lake.”
Jiang Hao was incredulous, “Who was it?”
The Heavenly Note Sect held her tea cup and said calmly, “Someone from Azure Mountain.”
“Impossible,” Jiang Hao blurted out instinctively.
He quickly weighed his words and explained, “Junior has heard of Azure Mountain, and supposedly, even their strongest people can’t come near this place,
“Especially since this place is bolstered by Senior’s strength.”
When he himself had entered, he had felt a terrifying Dao aura.
How strong are the people from Azure Mountain?
Do they have True Immortals?
If they have True Immortals, they are not just a top-tier sect…
Thinking this, Jiang Hao also thought of the Heavenly Note Sect.
The Heavenly Note Sect having True Immortals or even stronger figures, also counts as a top-tier sect.
But regardless, he still thought it impossible.
“Indeed, it’s impossible. That person used the cultivation method of Azure Mountain and was of average strength, but she managed to enter Hundred Flowers Lake,” the Heavenly Note Sect placed her tea cup on the table and looked at Jiang Hao, “Do you know why?”
Jiang Hao pondered and then said, “Because of the stone pieces?”
The sudden search for secret coded stone pieces, and up till now, only the mysterious master of the stone pieces had such strength.
“It seems that indeed, only the master behind the stone pieces has such ability,” the Heavenly Note Sect poured more tea and continued,
“But even if she acted, my condition at that time was very strange.
“The person who barged in was killed by me. I chased after,
“and at that time a technique that I couldn’t resist affected me with poison.
“But actually, this poison wouldn’t completely affect me, or wouldn’t so quickly affect me.
“As long as I returned in time, basically there wouldn’t have been the subsequent events.
“But at that time, I suddenly felt compelled to go to the nearby Cliff of Broken Hearts.”
“Why?” Jiang Hao was somewhat perplexed.
Normally, that poison wouldn’t completely affect one’s senses.
There was no need to go to the Cliff of Broken Hearts.
The Heavenly Note Sect chuckled lightly, her eyes lost in reminiscence:
“It was just one in a million thoughts that suddenly flashed through.
“An almost non-existent chance suddenly occurred, giving me a strange feeling.
“That by going there, perhaps it would change my life.”
“Whether for better or worse, I couldn’t be sure, but indeed, it could break all that was established.”
