——–

The moonlight descended like a veil of white silk.

In the silent night, one could entertain boundless reveries.

Until dawn, when the sunlight pierced through the darkness,

The quietude that belonged to the night then dissipated.

Jiang Hao was seated early in his chair, arranging the pastries.

These were bought yesterday and had been sealed by him, so they were still relatively fresh.

His method of preservation was many times better than the small girl's.

Anything brought back by the small girl tended to be somewhat poisonous.

One would get a stomach ache if they ate it without sufficient cultivation.

Cheng Chou had suffered from this several times.

Heavenly Note Sect sat at the bedside, watching Jiang Hao without any superfluous movement,

Merely watching in silence.

After a short while, Jiang Hao finally spoke, “Sister, you can eat now.”

“Your attitude during the day differs from that of the night,” Heavenly Note Sect said.

Jiang Hao paused and then asked,

“Sister, is it the same for you?”

Heavenly Note Sect didn't respond.

She came to sit across from Jiang Hao, picked up the pastries, and began to eat.

She also had him brew tea.

Using the Dew of the First Sun.

“Did your sister tell you anything?” Heavenly Note Sect suddenly asked.

“Miao Tinglian?” Jiang Hao asked.

Heavenly Note Sect nodded:

“Did she urge you to do anything after helping you find a partner?”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao was momentarily startled and curiously asked, “She talked to Sister?”

“Mm,” Heavenly Note Sect nodded, “She came over once before.”

“What did she say?” Jiang Hao was a bit curious.

And he had some guesses.

He thought to himself that Miao Tinglian really dared to say anything.

Within the entire Heavenly Note Sect, how many people would dare to speak to Heavenly Note Sect that way?

It was downright life-threatening.

If it were known by the sect masters, they'd probably be scared out of their wits.

“What do you think?” Heavenly Note Sect asked in return.

Jiang Hao pondered for a moment, then tentatively said, “Does it have to do with children?”

Heavenly Note Sect slightly nodded, “What do you think?”

Jiang Hao shook his head:

“You should ask her when she had children.”

“Four or five hundred years ago, maybe,” Heavenly Note Sect said.

Jiang Hao was speechless…

It couldn't be calculated like that; it had to be counted after she got married.

Of course, this was also too early.

Furthermore, for the Daluo realm to conceive a child is far more difficult than for other realms.

However, Heavenly Note Sect was just curious about the topic and had no other thoughts.

“What would it be like to have children?” Heavenly Note Sect asked while eating pastries.

“It wouldn't be like anything,” Jiang Hao shook his head,

“Just a headache.”

Heavenly Note Sect sipped her tea and curiously asked, “How did they meet?”

She was referring to Miao Tinglian and Mu Qi.

Jiang Hao shook his head: “I don't know; I only know that later Miao Tinglian chased him to the Heavenly Note Sect.

It just so happened that I was involved in recruiting disciples that day, so I brought her to Cliff of Broken Hearts.

Thus, I came to know them.

They are also grateful to me. If I hadn't used special privileges to bring her back, their success wouldn't be so certain.”

“I know that; I'm asking how they met initially,” Heavenly Note Sect asked.

Jiang Hao was silent.

Just ask Miao Tinglian about that.

Then they drank tea and ate breakfast.

Afterward, they continued their journey.

Though they took breaks along the way, they still quickly reached the eastern region.

Early in February,

Jiang Hao lamented growing another year older.

His cultivation had not progressed in the slightest.

He currently didn't rely on bubbles, so he wasn't sure what he specifically needed to do.

He could only take one step at a time.

Upon arriving in the eastern region, Jiang Hao sensed many powerful cultivators.

People from various regions were all heading this way; basically, all were here for the Immortal Clan.

Invited guests.

When Heavenly Note Sect arrived in the eastern region, she lightly coughed.

Jiang Hao looked over, surprised, “Sister, are you feeling unwell?”

“There's something strange,” Heavenly Note Sect looked up towards the heavens and said,

“The establishment of the Supreme Immortal Court seems to exert a great pressure on me.”

“An injury from the era?” Jiang Hao immediately thought of that.

Heavenly Note Sect has been awake for most of the time, witnessing the rise and fall of countless powerhouses through various eras.

The turnover of eras and the passage of time had left wounds on her that were difficult to understand.

These wounds prevented her from mobilizing her full strength.

And with the establishment of the Immortal Court, suppressing all the twists and chaos of the world, acting as the order of the cosmos,

Heavenly Note Sect, being outside that order and not fully integrated into the world, might be somewhat suppressed.

“Can you forcefully break through?” Jiang Hao asked.

“No need, I just have to avoid the suppression, similar to sleeping,” Heavenly Note Sect replied.

Jiang Hao nodded.

At that time, he could experience it himself and might be able to come up with more solutions.

Additionally, if the establishment of the Immortal Court Order truly suppressed Heavenly Note Sect, they could use the suppression to understand the nature of her injuries

And thus heal them.

With a decision made, Jiang Hao no longer dwelled on it.

But said, “Then shall we go to the Heavenly Faction? See how we can blend in.”

Heavenly Note Sect nodded and said,

“Change into different clothes?”

Jiang Hao used the Thousand Faces Treasure Fan to transform into an ordinary cultivator who had just reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Heavenly Note Sect's attire changed to an ordinary red immortal dress.

Her hair tied in a simple updo, her aura fading.

Her originally aloof and dignified air became that of an average girl.

There were minor changes in her facial features; though she remained beautiful, the allure was no longer stunning, merely simply beautiful.

After a month, they arrived at the Heavenly Faction.

But they didn't encounter any recruitment of disciples.

They had to wait another month.

So Jiang Hao and his companion waited another month.

By mid-April,

Jiang Hao and Heavenly Note Sect arrived at the foot of the Heavenly Faction's mountain.

They rode in a carriage, inching closer to the Heavenly Faction.

But before long, their carriage was stopped.

“Fellow travelers in the carriage,” a voice came from outside.

Jiang Hao pulled back the curtain to look.

It was a man, carrying a pale-faced woman on his back.

Both of them appeared to be seriously injured.

“What's wrong?” Jiang Hao asked.

“My sister is injured; may we make use of your carriage to proceed to the Heavenly Faction?” the man asked.
