Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 856: Meeting The Person Who Killed Granny Kufa

At the place where her body shattered, a sapling emerged.

It was the Longevity Thousand Hearts Curse.

He knew this wasn’t a normal sapling when he reached out for it.

It was a magical item in the shape of a sapling.

It was too bad that he couldn’t take it along with him.

He could have gotten bubbles out of it.

He checked it. There was no dust on it.

He was disappointed. There was no way he could wipe it to get bubbles.

Even under the Heavenly Blade’s Mountain Suppression, the curses hadn’t dissipated. It seemed like they were still trying to escape.

Jiang Hao sensed the Longevity Thousand Hearts Curse everywhere.

Without hesitation, he let the purple aura enter the magical item and interfered with the curse.

In an instant, the curse shattered.

At that moment, the surrounding curses seemed to lose their intensity.

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Hao suppressed the curse with the Mountain Sea Seal.

He searched for the storage treasure and put it away when he found it.

He checked to make sure everything was fine. Then, he retrieved the Yin-Yang Bracelet.

Granny Kufa was dead.

However, just as he landed, he felt that the Mountain Sea Seal seemed to have triggered something else. It was very subtle. It might have been a clue related to the Sage’s Pages.

He had to wait there for a while.

However, it didn’t seem to be in line with Gu Jin’s identity. When Gu Jin was young, he might have been full of pride and ambition but also kind and generous.

If he wanted to disguise himself, he had to be careful.

Gu Jin’s name carried too much weight and attracted a lot of attention. He dared not use it lightly.

At that moment, the people around looked at each other in disbelief. Granny

Kufa was dead?!

“Granny Kufa isn’t really dead, is she?” someone asked.

“I saw it before. Her curses always caused a rampage and then exploded.”

Granny Kufa would always laugh mockingly after a fight. But this time, she didn’t.

“She might really have died this time,” said a woman in the crowd.

At that moment, an old man with a significantly powerful cultivation realm said, “I also saw it. Whenever someone tried to kill Granny Kufa, she always managed to escape in the end. She was difficult to catch. But this time… a sapling has appeared where she was. I think that is her treasure. She was always prideful and reckless because of that thing. She might actually be dead.”

Everyone fell silent.

It felt unreal that Granny Kufa had died.

The notorious Granny Kufa, who was fearless and difficult to kill, had died.

Some people still felt that Granny Kufa might appear at any moment.

If she had died this easily, it meant the major sects were useless.

Jiang Hao didn’t pay attention to their words. Instead, he walked straight to

Hong Yuye.

She was quietly sipping tea and waiting.

Just as Jiang Hao tried to sit in one of the chairs, she raised her head and looked at him.

Disdain appeared in her calm eyes.

Jiang Hao showed her the Longevity Thousand Hearts Curse that was sealed in a purple sphere that hovered on his palm.

“Do all unlucky things like to run to you?” Hong Yuye asked.

“Senior, you’re joking. The cultivation world is dangerous. That means unlucky things are everywhere. I don’t have an affinity with them,” said Jiang Hao. He also felt that he got entangled with ominous things one too many times.

But he couldn’t admit it.

Hong Yuye looked at him carefully. She didn’t say anything. Instead, she lowered her head and sipped her tea.

Jiang Hao also sat down and drank September Spring.

He had bought eight packs of it. Now, only seven remained.

It would be challenging to buy it in the next ten years.

At least, he wasn’t sure if he could buy it in such a remote place like the Heavenly Note Sect.

After they sat down, some people began to leave.

Soon, the news of Granny Kufa’s death spread like wildfire.

Many people didn’t believe it. However, when they dug deeper, they found out that Granny Kufa’s heavenly connection had disappeared.

Forces related to Granny Kufa had completely vanished overnight.

Three days later, anyone who was close to Granny Kufa disappeared from their areas.

Those who were not close to her but were still connected to her declared that they were never on good terms with Granny Kufa.

Everyone was now sure that Granny Kufa was really dead. It was a fact that they couldn’t ignore.

The arrogant old woman was finally dead.

Many people were curious about the killer.

A middle-aged man walked out of his hut in the Ancient River Sect. He had been in seclusion for many years.

He had heard about Granny Kufa’s demise, so he wanted to make sure.

“Master,” said a man.

“Is it true that Granny Kufa was killed?” the middle-aged man asked.

“Indeed.” The man in his thirties nodded. “Where did it happen?”

“At the Thousand Springs River.” “Fetch me a portion of the sect’s best tea.”

“Understood.”

A moment later, the middle-aged man departed on his flying sword.

Meanwhile, in the ancient city, Jing Dajiang was surprised. “Why have so many people been spreading the news about Granny Kuf’s death? Who is Granny

Kufa?”

“I don’t know.” His two old companions shook their heads.

“It seems like many people want to meet the person who killed her. Since we’re free, let’s go take a look. Let’s go and check it out,” Jing Dajiang said.

“Granny Kufa is a junior, right? Why should we bother?” asked the bearded man.

“Let’s go see who the person is. What if it’s a wandering cultivator? They might have wanted to attract attention that way,” Jing Dajiang said with a smile.

The two old men nodded.

After that, they headed toward the Thousand Springs River.

“Is there a rumor that there’s information about the Sage’s Pages there?” Jing Dajiang asked.

“Yes.” The beardless old man nodded.

The three people became even more interested.

Down at the Thousand Springs River, a middle-aged man who had previously traded with Jiang Hao looked up. He was astonished.

‘This fellow cultivator is unexpectedly powerful…’ He walked toward him. He wanted to make another trade with the person.

Based on their previous exchange, Jiang Hao didn’t seem like someone who robbed others of their treasure.

So, there shouldn’t be any harm in trading now.

Jiang Hao suddenly looked up from his cup of tea.

Jiang Hao was quite surprised.

“Senior?” Jiang Hao politely said.

“Friend, please don’t misunderstand. I’m only here for a trade,” said the middle-aged man.

Jiang Hao felt bitter. ‘I don’t even have spirit stones…’

Then, he thought of Granny Kufa’s storage treasure that he had picked up earlier. He checked it and smiled.

“Senior, please have a seat..”
