Hong Yuye sat in the pavilion at the Hundred Flowers Lake and watched the flowers bloom.

A light fragrance wafted in the air.

A white figure stood outside the pavilion. “There’s news from overseas that many people from The End of All Things have headed to the North. Their goal is very clear. The Four Great Monsters have appeared. Many people are looking for exotic beasts that have yet to be discovered. So far, the exotic beasts in the North haven’t been accounted for. The main reason might be because of the chaos in the North. The Divine Corpse Sect has faced the brunt of it. They want to take Zhuang Yuzhen back. But I feel that it’s not the right time yet. Also, there’s news about the Desolate Sea Pearl. It’s said that…”

Just as Baizhi was about to continue, she saw the Sect Master turn to look into the distance.

She looked surprised.

“Sect Master?” Baizhi said.

She did not know what had happened.

“It’s fine. You can continue,” Hong Yuye said.

“The Eastern Sky Abyss is the highest mountain in the entire eastern region. Ordinary people can’t go up there, and it’s not under the jurisdiction of any faction. Anyone can approach it. It is said that the Human Emperor placed the Desolate Sea Pearl above it,” she continued, “The purpose is to weaken the power of the sea clans. So far, although other immortal sects may have the strength to obtain the Desolate Sea Pearl, none have acted to disrupt the Human Emperor’s arrangement.”

“Go over and take a look at it,” said Hong Yuye.

Baizhi lowered her head and said politely, “A few people did go there. Furthermore, the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment seems to be friendly toward us. Some have already gone to the Bright Moon Sect to obtain more information.”

“What about the sect you captured?” Hong Yuye asked.

“The influence of the Great Thousand Spirit is still there, so we’ve been unable to get anything out of them,” said Baizhi. “Because of Hu Yuexin’s appearance, it has become harder to find Feng Hua. The situation has changed. In addition, the Blackheaven Sect has also noticed Hu Yuexin’s presence there, but we don’t know where she is now. Other than that, there’s the Divine Corpse Sect. They went to the East to ask for help. The Heavenly Saint Sect has also been acting a bit strange lately. Since they have agreed to cooperate with us, we got some information. The influence of the Holy Master is growing. Numerous divine souls are descending.”

Then, she mentioned Jiang Hao.

“The Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower is growing normally. Jiang Hao has been quiet these past few months. He hasn’t displayed any strange behavior. I heard that Han Ming from the Cliff of Broken Hearts is also about to break through. He has the potential to become one of the top disciples. Once he breaks through, he will definitely think of a way to attempt it. It also seems he sees Jiang Hao as an opponent. Jiang Hao has been collecting blood sacrifices once again. I think he is also preparing for a breakthrough,” said Baizhi. “The day Han Ming challenges him will be the day he might break through. Judging from the pattern till now, the person backing Jiang Hao seems to not let Jiang Hao win if they are in the same realm to not undermine Han Ming’s brilliance. But that also makes Jiang Hao stand out. It doesn’t seem feasible in the long term.”

Hong Yuye looked at Baizhi and remained silent.

Baizhi was a little worried about being stared at. ‘Did I say something wrong?’ She thought.

“Anything else?” Hong Yuye asked.

“Not at the moment.” Baizhi shook her head.

“Have you investigated the person behind him?” Hong Yuye asked.

“I did. I checked again and again, but I don’t know where the problem lies.”

“Tell me,” Hong Yuye said.

Baizhi thought for a moment. “Jiang Hao wasn’t anything special when he first entered the sect. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t even be noticed. He doesn’t cause trouble. But if someone does target him, they seem to disappear overnight. It looks like someone powerful is protecting him… someone with immense power. That’s why his background is worth investigating. But no matter how much I search about him, I find nothing suspicious. The only problem is his parents.”

“Have you found out where they are?” Hong Yuye asked.

“No.” Baizhi shook her head.

“How many years have you been searching?” Hong Yuye was surprised.

“It’s been more than ten years. We’ve checked all the surrounding towns and cities, but there’s no one who looks remotely like him. I even went to the town where Jiang Hao lived. It’s named Fallen City. I… found something there,” said Baizhi. “Twenty-four years ago, someone saw them enter the gate of Fallen City.”

“And?” Hong Yuye asked.

Baizhi did not dare hesitate. She said, “Then, the trail ran cold. It was as though they disappeared from Fallen City entirely. My subordinates suspect that they left the city and never came back again. The two were ordinary non-cultivators, so no one paid attention to them. Naturally, the information we received is not reliable. Furthermore, since we focus on his background too much, we tend to mystify Jiang Hao’s background. It is equally possible that someone just values him, or he ends up doing something extraordinary by accident. It is also possible that Yun Ruo was the turning point, and she led him to another path. Her death could have been a cover for Jiang Hao.”

Hong Yuye lowered her head and did not speak.

Baizhi then mentioned Xiao Li.

“Xiao Li’s background doesn’t seem ordinary either,” Baizhi immediately said. “We didn’t investigate her, but someone did send information about her.”

“Who?” Hong Yuye asked curiously.

“One of Feng Hua’s spiritual avatars, Hai Ming. He seems to have a beef against Jiang Hao or rather with the person backing him up,” said Baizhi.

“How much information did he provide?” Hong Yuye asked.

Baizhi did not dare hesitate and handed over a letter she had copied again.

She had been worried the envelope concealed some tricks, so she had transcribed it once again.

The information in the letter was a little surprising.

“Dragon?” Hong Yuye smiled. “She’s a True Dragon?”

“Yes.” Baizhi nodded. “According to Hai Ming’s information, there’s a high possibility that Xiao Li is a dragon. He actually sent this letter anonymously. He must have some hidden agenda, but the information is worth our attention.”

“What do you think we should do?” Hong Yuye asked.

“We need to find Feng Hua as soon as possible and silence her,” said Baizhi seriously. “As for Xiao Li, she cannot be touched. If she is a dragon, it would benefit our sect greatly. She is also on good terms with Jiang Hao. She goes as far as to accept Jiang Hao as her elder brother. My subordinates suspect that Jiang Hao has long known that she is a dragon. The person backing him must be protecting Xiao Li. Offending Xiao Li would mean provoking the person behind Jiang Hao, which won’t work in our favor.”

“The person behind Jiang Hao may not be on our side, but they seem to be on Jiang Hao’s side for now,” she continued. “He might even help suppress some terrifying experts. If he has no ill intentions toward our sect, then befriending him will give us another ally in the future. Other than that, we also have a dragon that belongs to our sect. Of course, we need to be vigilant and prevent them from targeting us.”

Hong Yuye looked at Baizhi and fell silent.

Cold sweat dripped down the latter’s forehead. She could not figure out the Sect master’s intentions.

“The Great Era War is coming soon. During this period, try your best not to make a move. It will be of great benefit to you if you accumulate strength,” Hong Yuye said slowly. After a pause, she continued, “Try not to leave the Heavenly Note Sect. Just wait for the Great Era to reach our sect.”
