At the Astronomical Academy, Jing Dajiang sat under a tree and enjoyed the cool breeze while sipping his coffee.

Next to him were two elderly men.

“That young girl is quite dangerous,” said the one with a white beard.

“I asked around about her. It seems she has been in the academy since very young, but she is a bit distant from others,” said Jing Dajiang and chuckled while eating some peanuts.

“But it’s alright for now. She won’t be a problem. She still lacks opportunities, which aren’t easy to find. It might take ten or even a hundred years to take another step forward. When she gets there, I’ll lend her a hand.”

“You gave her the Astronomical Scroll… What if it creates conflict with other sects?” asked the beardless old man.

“Conflict with other sects?” Jing Dajiang laughed. “Do we look like pushovers? Do they look that tough? If they dare to engage in a fight with us, why would we back down? As long as that young girl remains tough, even major sects like the Clear Sky School or the Bright Moon Sect would have to think seriously about starting a war, let alone small Western sects. The seniors from the major sects will have to step in to defuse the situation. Don’t worry. Nobody dares to fight us… except maybe the Mountain Sea Sword Sect.” The two elders nodded. That did make sense.

After a while, a disciple entered their space.

The disciple was dressed in blue and white academy robes. He looked scholarly and held a fan in his hand.

“Good morning, Elders, ” he said in greeting.

“What’s the matter?” Jing Dajiang asked.

“Senior Sister Yan has fallen into the inner demon,” said the young disciple.

Jing Dajiang and the other two were surprised.

“So soon? Where did she find the opportunity?” asked the bearded elder. “It seems she lost herself in anger, and then her immortal intent manifested.”

“Her immortal intent appeared?” Jing Dajiang frowned slightly. “What does she plan to do?”

“She intends to ascend to the Immortal Ascension Platform within her inner demon.”

“Nonsense!”

“In fact, there’s a possibility of success.”

“Do you think you know this better than me?”

The newcomer bowed. “Senior Sister Yan did something extraordinary. She took a Golden Core Realm cultivator into her inner demon. This person might aid her in her success. Although Senior Sister Yan only wanted to protect him, she unknowingly laid a possibility for her path to immortality. This’ll also benefit the Golden Core Realm cultivator.”

“She took someone into her inner demon? That is… quite bold!” Jing Dajiang chuckled.

“His name is Dole. He is of average talent and is good at formations. He sometimes thinks he is inferior to others but has a defining quality that most people lack: pure kindness. Senior Sister Yan took the Astronomical Scroll to protect him. This is an opportunity for both her and the Golden Core Realm cultivator,” said the newcomer.

“Is the situation dangerous?”

“Yes. Our people haven’t acted yet. This is an opportunity for everyone. Intervening might mean that they can help the two survive, but it might also increase the chance of failure for what Senior Sister Yan intends to do.”

Jing Dajiang fell silent for a moment.

Then, he asked about the ancient pages.

“It seems it’s in the West. According to some seniors, the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment might have attracted the pages to her.”

“The Bright Moon Sect has the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment. The Clear Sky School has a Sage. What does our sect have?” The newcomer lowered his head and fell silent.

Jing Dajiang didn’t ask further. He had retired, and these matters were of no concern to him. The only thing he cared about was meeting that senior again. Unfortunately, apart from the book title, there was no further news about him.

After the newcomer left, the three enjoyed the peanuts for a while.

Feeling increasingly bored as they ate, Jing Dajiang finally stood up. “It has been a long time since I went out, hasn’t it?”

“Why? Do you want to go out?” the bearded elder asked. “I’m going to go out for a stroll.” Jing Dajiang got up.

It was too boring to stay here day after day.

In the southern region, Bi Zhu led Qiao Yi to the Heavenly Note Sect.

“Princess, you come here quite often,” said Qiao Yi.

“No, I don’t!” said Bi Zhu hurriedly. “Please, Aunt Qiao, don’t say such unlucky things. This’ll be our last visit.”

Qiao Yi was puzzled. ‘Why are you so afraid of this place yet insist on coming here every time?”

“Because this is the South. I plan to go west. I want to meet the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment. Maybe I’ll find her there.” Bi Zhu smiled warily.

“Are you happy, Princess?”

“Of course. Leaving the southern region will make me even happier. If we can get used to the West, we won’t even come back here.”

‘What if your brothers want to see you?

“Let them come to the West to visit me then. Besides, my life is almost over. In a hundred years or so, I’ll die. They don’t need to worry about me anymore.” Death meant the end of worries.

Qiao Yi didn’t know what to say for a moment. It probably wouldn’t really end. The princess was not an ordinary person.

Although she hadn’t seen the princess in action, she seemed quite extraordinary.

As for her claim of being the first genius of the royal family, that remained to be seen.

Bi Zhu spoke to the guards as they neared the entrance of the Heavenly Note Sect.

“I am Bi Zhu of the Blackheaven Sect. I’m here to meet liang Hao of the Cliff of

Broken Hearts. Here is my letter for your reference.”

The letter was provided by the Blackheaven Sect, which allowed her to visit the Heavenly Note Sect as a guest.

Bi Zhu also handed over a few spirit stones to them for everything to go smoothly. She didn’t have much else, but she had plenty of spirit stones.

If she offered them a few, it would definitely make her visit much easier.

“Of course. Please follow me,” said the guard after accepting the spirit stones.

She was taken to the guest reception area. The guard then asked someone to fetch Jiang Hao.

With spirit stones to pave the way, everyone was happy.

At the Cliff of Broken Hearts, Jiang Hao had waited for Gui to arrive for nearly a month.

After handing over the items to her, he could go about his own affairs.

As for Dole’s situation, it all depended on luck.

He had offended too many people this time. Even if Zhang was outstanding, she was just one person. She might not be able to protect Dole alone.

Even if Xing had gotten involved, it would have been the same.

No matter what he had to offer, he couldn’t amass the power of the entire Astronomical Academy or the Bright Moon sect.

That would require immense leverage, which Jiang Hao didn’t have.

Even a top-ranking disciple couldn’t manage something like that.

It was almost impossible for Dole to live a peaceful life.

It would be difficult to survive for him.

With a sigh, Jiang Hao stopped overthinking.

After that, he arrived at the guest reception area. This was the second time he had directly traded with the other party. He didn’t know if it would have any impact on him.

Fortunately, it won’t be as frequent.

“It’s been too long since I saw you last, Friend Jiang,” said Bi Zhu with a smile.

Jiang Hao politely said, “Indeed.”

Jiang Hao handed over the box containing the Ancient and Modern Book.

“Friend Jiang, aren’t you going to the West?” Bi Zhu suddenly asked.

Jiang Hao shook his head.

“That’s a pity,” Bi Zhu said with a regretful smile..
