Chapter 890: The Circle of Time

As the sun rose in the morning, Jiang Hao left the courtyard with the spirit beast and headed to the Spirit Herb Garden. He returned to the courtyard at sunset.

He repeated this daily.

Time passed quickly, and Jiang Hao continued to spend spirit stones while also working hard to earn them.

However, what he earned was far from enough to cover his expenses.

Four months later, around early August, Jiang Hao’s spirit stones decreased by twenty-five thousand.

He was only left with one hundred and eighty thousand.

He considered spending ten thousand spirit stones on the divine soul of the Holy Master.

He still had much to absorb. He decided to do it little by little. He headed to the Spirit Herb Garden early that day.

He headed to the Spirit Herb Garden early that day.

“Why are you up so early today, Master?” The spirit beast yawned.

The peach tree was ripening, and Xiao Li occasionally ate the fruits before dinner.

“Master, I feel someone approaching us. But when they hear my voice, they retreat,” said the spirit beast.

Jiang Hao didn’t pay much attention.

There had been people from the Heavenly Saint Sect who approached him during this time, but they weren’t afraid of the spirit Beast. They were just observing him.

Soon, someone would take action.

Whether they were here for Miao Tinglian or Mu Qi remained to be seen.

Apart from the Heavenly Saint Sect, there were also people from the Great Thousand God Sect.

However, they weren’t very strong.

Regarding the sect mission, the people from the Law Enforcement Hall had urged him to join three times already.

With only two months remaining, he had to go.

There was still no news from the Lawless Tower. Perhaps they were taking things slow because of the Reversal of the Great Thousand Spirit Technique.

The Fallen Immortal Clan hadn’t made a move yet, so the Great Thousand God Sect was waiting.

Before, it was difficult to find them, but now it was much easier.

At the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao saw many bubbles as he entered.

There were all sorts of bubbles: blue, green, white…

He sighed in relief.

“Junior Brother Jiang,” Miao Tinglian called for him.

He pretended not to have heard and walked toward the bubbles instead.

He collected the bubbles.

Soon after, numerous bubbles merged into his body.

[Strength +1]

[Spirit Sword +1] [Cultivation +1] [Lifeblood +1]

[Cultivation +1]

Dozens of bubbles flowed into his body, and he could feel the changes.

Miao Tinglian walked over to him.

“Junior Brother Jiang, what are you doing?”

“Senior Sister Miao, what brings you here?” Jiang Hao felt helpless.

Miao Tinglian’s cultivation realm had indeed improved. If her talent wasn’t properly utilized, it would be such a waste.

“Let me tell you something, ” she said, “When you go for your patrolling mission, as for Senior Sister Lu from the Law Enforcement Hall.”

Jiang Hao looked puzzled.

“She is at the early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm. She appears cold and distant but is actually very soft at heart. She might not be stunning at a glance but is very pleasing to the eye. She is also looking for a partner.”

“Junior Brother Jiang, where are you going?!” Miao Tinglian shouted.

“I have to go prepare,” Jiang Hao said and hurried away.

He thought Miao Tinglian was there to pass him an important message, but she was there to play matchmaking yet again.

He checked his interface.

He found that he had gotten a total of twenty-six bubbles.

‘Twenty-six… It’s more than I expected.’

He thought that the probability of finding bubbles would decrease drastically after reaching the Immortal Ascension Platform.

Unexpectedly, he had obtained quite a few.

In other words, with enough high-grade spirit herbs, combined with the spirit stones, he could advance completely to the late stage of the Immortal Ascension Platform.

He had the spirit stones. He just needed the high-grade spirit herbs.

Jiang Hao let out a sigh and tended to the Spirit Herb Garden for a while.

After that, he made some arrangements for the Spirit Herb Garden.

He had to go and complete the sect mission.

With Cheng Chou handling ordinary matters of the garden and the spirit beast on stand-by, it was enough.

Jiang Hao felt quite sentimental. It seemed that he might not be needed at the Spirit Herb Garden, after all.

It was hard to say if he would continue to stay in the garden in the future.

One day, he might become one of the top disciples. Would he still be guarding the Spirit Herb Garden at that time?

He didn’t know for sure.

He was still far from competing for the position of a top disciple.

Junior Brother Han might be refining the Sword Embryo right about now.

He hadn’t yet paid the thousand spirit stones.

Jiang Hao headed to the Law Enforcement Hall.

There were still some seniors handling logistics.

Jiang Hao asked about the patrol mission.

“Patrol mission?” The Senior Sister at the counter asked as she looked up at Jiang Hao.

“Junior Brother Jiang from the Cliff of Broken Hearts?”

Jiang Hao nodded. “Yes.”

“It’s delayed by four months. It’s quite unusual,” she said. “Patrolling missions are also done in teams. For this mission, there will be two Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators and one Lifeblood Refinement Realm cultivator. ”

“Which branch does the Lifeblood Refinement Realm disciple belong to?” Jiang Hao asked.

Lifeblood Refinement Realm cultivators usually didn’t go on sect missions.

“The Cliff of Broken Hearts.”

Surprisingly, it was from his own branch.

Jiang Hao thought about it. Could it be a new disciple?

“If you have confirmed your timing, you can go and find Senior Sister Lu. She’ll assign you your patrol route.”

Jiang Hao nodded and thanked her.

The sooner he went on the mission, the better.

He found the Senior Sister. She looked cold and distant. She was also very pale in complexion.

Was this who Miao Tinglian was referring to?

She seemed to be in the early stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

He wondered how Miao Tinglian knew her.

Jiang Hao explained why he was there.

“For now, you can start from the outer sect. If you achieve something, you can choose your preferred route. Of course, you can also follow the sect’s arrangements and patrol the entire sect,” Senior Sister Lu said.

Jiang Hao nodded.

He didn’t expect to be able to choose his own route.

But it was only possible if he had achievements.

It was safer to start with the outer sect.

With a Lifeblood Refinement Realm cultivator and two Foundation establishment Realm cultivators, safety was a priority.

The next day, Jiang Hao received the list of names.

There were a total of five people on the team including him.

The four others were Zheng Shijiu from the Ice Moon Valley, Lin MO from the Law Enforcement Peak, Zhao Qingxue from the White Moon Lake, and Lin Zhi from the Cliff of Broken Hearts.

Jiang Hao was stunned. Who had chosen Lin Zhi?

Somebody must have helped him. Without someone’s influence, he wouldn’t be chosen for a sect mission.

Patrol missions were usually not dangerous. Did the person want Lin Zhi to get some reward?

He looked at Lin MO and Zhao Qinxue’s names, and something dawned on him.

Perhaps it was because of them.

There was also Senior Brother Zheng.

He didn’t expect to meet him again.

The mission was to begin three days later. They would meet and set off.

Jiang Hao was supposed to lead the group.

Three days later, Jiang Hao arrived at the foot of the Law Enforcement Peak and waited quietly.

Zheng Shijiu was the first to arrive. He smiled when he saw Jiang Hao.

“Junior Brother Jiang, we meet again!”

“Senior Brother Zheng, how have you been?” Jiang Hao said politely.

“All good! Once again, we’ll have to rely on your strength, Junior Brother Jiang.” “I still hope I can rely on your help, Senior Brother Zheng.”

Whenever he was busy, Senior Brother Zheng always handled the matters.

Jiang Hao liked working with him.

The three others were recruited into the sect when they had been all together. If Senior Sister Yue and Senior Sister Xin were here, it would be a reunion.

It was as though time had made a full circle..
