Chapter 1390: Demoness: You’re Luckier Than Me (2)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As expected, that night, Jiang Hao felt something falling from the sky.
However, to his surprise, it was not raining, but…
It was snowing.
Jiang Hao looked at the snowflakes in disbelief.
The snowfall this time was different from the previous one. It was not the snow that carried opportunities but just normal, chilling snow.
In the courtyard, Jiang Hao reached out his hand to catch a snowflake. “This is the first time, right?” he said with a sigh.
This was the first time he had encountered a normal snowy day since he had been in the Heavenly Note Sect.
It was truly snowing.
The spirit beast was excited.
It jumped onto the table and said, “Master, my friends in the underworld truly respect me. They covered the earth in white snow.”
Jiang Hao chuckled and did not say anything else.
He planned to go to the Lawless Tower to learn about talismans.
When he reached the fifth floor, Jiang Hao voiced his doubts.
“You didn’t continue to learn talismans for so many years?” The other party was surprised.
Jiang Hao nodded and then asked the question that was most difficult for him.
Mi Lingyue said helplessly, “This is the most basic brush technique. It’s the easiest to learn. You just need to learn it as you usually do. The hard part is drawing the talismans and comprehending them. You should be asking these questions, not about such basic brushwork.”
After that, Jiang Hao learned many brush strokes from her and began to practice them day after day.
Around mid-November, Jiang Hao finally learned most of the strokes.
This time, he felt that he could try to make a Body-Sealing Talisman.
“Beast, look at this. It looks the same as you.” Xiao Li looked very excited.
She sat under the peach tree and tried to make a snowman.
She was making a snowman that looked like the spirit beast.
It had been snowing for a long time, so the ground was covered in white.
Even the sect’s reconstruction work was affected.
It was mainly because ordinary people were not used to it.
It had been decades since they had felt such chilliness.
The Cliff of Broken Hearts gave him thick clothes immediately, but it was hard to say for the other branches.
Although there were many arrays protecting many places in the sect, there were no array formations where the ordinary people lived.
He had been trying to create one recently, but it took a lot of time and energy. It was not easy to cover all the areas.
He wanted to restore everything to how it previously was, but he did not know how.
“Beast, let’s go to the Spirit Herb Garden and get Senior Brother Jiang. With Senior Brother Jiang around, Senior Brother Cheng will be at ease,” Xiao Li said.
The spirit beast readily agreed.
“In the future, Master will give me a bit of respect when he sees me,” said the beast and jumped on Xiao Li’s shoulder.
Xiao Li was wearing thick clothes to protect herself from the cold.
Watching them, Jiang Hao remembered the past.
“You had a childhood like that too?” Suddenly, a voice asked.
Jiang Hao turned and saw a woman in a red and white dress standing on the balcony.
She stood there, like a touch of red in the white snow. She looked very striking.
Without hesitation, Jiang Hao took out an oil-paper umbrella and opened it to cover her.
“I did have a… childhood,” Jiang Hao said.
“Did you have a happy childhood?” asked Hong Yuye curiously.
“Not too bad,” Jiang Hao answered softly.
His childhood was different.
Even though he had a stepmother, it was not unbearable.
She was made to chop firewood when he was four years old, and he felt like she was being mistreated.
But he was not beaten.
She scolded him very often and even threatened to tell his father.
Thinking back, Jiang Hao realized that he could not remember what his father looked like.
“Have you seen snow before?” Hong Yuye asked Jiang Hao.
“I’ve seen them and even played with them, just like Xiao Li,” Jiang Hao said as he looked at the spirit beast Xiao Li had made out of snow.
“Then, you are luckier than me,” said Hong Yuye and lowered her head.
“Senior, do you want to try making that?” Jiang Hao looked at the snow below and asked hesitantly.
Hong Yuye looked at Jiang Hao calmly.
She did not respond.
“Why do you think it’s snowing?” she asked.
Jiang Hao was stunned.
Many answers flashed through his mind. In the end, he said softly, “It might be because a celestial being got drunk and crushed the white clouds.”
“Oh?” Hong Yuye was surprised. “Did you learn that from your father?”
“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.
Hong Yuye chuckled.
Then, she turned around and entered the house. She sat on the chair and gestured for Jiang Hao to make tea.
The latter did not dare to hesitate.
He took out September Spring.
However, the other party was staring at him. Jiang Hao stood rooted to the ground.
“Not changing the tea?” Hong Yuye asked.
Jiang Hao quickly switched to the Azure Red tea.
“Changing to worse?” Hong Yuye asked coldly.
“What do you want, Senior?” Jiang Hao asked, bracing himself.
“It seems like you didn’t take my words to heart,” said Hong Yuye icily.
“The Dew of the First Sun is still on its way. It’ll be here soon,” Jiang Hao said immediately.
He knew how to plant spirit herbs, but he might not be able to grow the tea if he planted it here, even if all the requirements were fulfilled.
Even if he accumulated spirit stones, it might take more than a hundred years to grow the tea.
It was too late to try.
The only choice he had was to buy it.
He already knew where to buy it.
There was a place in the East, another in the West, and the last one in the North.
He could even get it overseas but not in the South,
The best choices were overseas and the North.
Both places were inaccessible to him.
So, it was between the East and the West in the end.
There were no golden rings in the East, so the final choice was the West.
But…
It was not time yet, so he had to wait.
Hong Yuye chuckled. “You said it would be here the next time I came.”
“It was my miscalculation,” Jiang Hao said seriously.
“Tell me, what price will you pay for it?” Hong Yuye asked.
“I’m willing to go through fire and water for you, Senior,” Jiang Hao said seriously.
“No price means no risking life and limb?” Hong Yuye asked with a half-smile.
“I wouldn’t dare.” Jiang Hao shook his head.
Hong Yuye sneered.
After that, Jiang Hao lowered his head and silently brewed the tea.
“Do you remember Situ Jingjing?” Hong Yuye picked up the tea that Jiang Hao had brewed and asked.
“I do.” Jiang Hao nodded.
“Do you want to avenge that person?” Hong Yuye asked curiously.
“If it’s convenient, I wouldn’t mind,” Jiang Hao said.
“Investigate her,” Hong Yuye said.
Jiang Hao knew that Hong Yuye did not like that love story.
So, she probably wanted to see what her love story was like at present.
As for her life or death, Hong Yuye did not care.
Let alone a single person, even if an entire clan died, it was normal.
But if she wanted it investigated, he had to put in the effort.
Otherwise, he would not get through as easily as today.
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Hao asked about the Heavenly Note Sect.
He wanted to know how long it would take for it to recover.
“Do you mean this snow?” Hong Yuye asked.
Jiang Hao nodded. That was roughly what he meant.
“It’s not easy. The Heavenly Note Sect didn’t have snow before, not because of sect formations, but because of the world’s spiritual force. Now that the great era has come, all major forces have changed. Unless someone gathers new spiritual forces here, it will keep snowing,” Hong Yuye said.
“Not even immortals can gather it?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Only a great sect can do it, with enough and strong enough immortals. Otherwise, it’s difficult.” Hong Yuye thought for a moment and said, “Of course, if there’s a unique terrain, it can mostly maintain momentum, like controlling the river outside the Heavenly Note Sect.”
Jiang Hao was a little surprised. He did not expect the river to have such an effect, but it might be quite difficult to control.
Just as Jiang Hao was about to ask how to control it, he suddenly felt something vibrate in his storage treasure.
It was not the stone tablet but the Nine Nether.
“What?” Jiang Hao took out the Nine Nether, which was sealed in a purple ball. He was in disbelief. “Is someone communicating with the Nine Nether?”
“Someone is using the birthplace of the Nine Nether to communicate with its source,” Hong Yuye said.
Jiang Hao immediately thought of the Fallen Immortal Clan.
Or rather, the current immortals.
“They want to take back the Nine Nether and make a comeback?” Jiang Hao was surprised.
For safety, he immediately activated the Yin-Yang Bracelet to cut off the resonance.
If it continued, it would alert the people of the Fallen Immortal Clan.
“I wonder if Little Wang will be discovered.” Jiang Hao was a little worried.
“No. It’s not the same Nine Nether it used to be. It has its own thoughts now,” said Hong Yuye.
Jiang Hao held the Nine Nether in his hands. He felt rather helpless.
He thought the resonance should be mutual for it to work.
As long as the Nine Nether he held did not respond, there should be no problem.
Then, he took out the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl.
He wanted to test its effectiveness.
