Jiang Hao sat in the courtyard and looked at the object in his hand.

It was the eggshell that he had taken out of the box. Other than that, there was also a dragon scale.

It contained the power akin to water ripples.

With a gentle touch, water actually appeared on it.

It was formed by spiritual energy.

He tried it out. As long as spiritual energy was used to touch the scale, he could activate it.

“Just a little trinket.” Jiang Hao shook his head.

After appraising it and making sure there was no problem, he decided to give it to Xiao Li.

Just as he was about to put it away, a red-and-white figure slowly appeared.

“Senior…” Jiang Hao hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully.

“Your condition is getting better and better.” Hong Yuye sat on a wooden chair. Her waist-length hair swayed gently.

Her gaze fell on Jiang Hao, and she smiled.

“It’s all thanks to you, Senior,” he said.

It was never wrong to acknowledge the help others had given him.

“What have you been up to lately?” she asked.

“Just taking care of your flower, Senior,” he said.

“Other than that?” she asked.

“There’s also this,” Jiang Hao took out the Dragon Clan’s scroll.

“What about your cultivation realm?” she asked again.

“I haven’t made any substantial changes in my cultivation realm. I’m trying to understand formations these days. In the future, when it’s time for me to become an immortal, I can use it,” he said.

“Have you learned it yet?” she asked.

“I’m not talented enough.” Jiang Hao shook his head.

Hong Yuye stared at Jiang Hao in surprise. “It indeed seems like you’re really stupid. What do you want to do after learning the formation?”

What was he going to do?

Jiang Hao had already thought of what he would do.

“I want to go out and take a look,” he said honestly after a moment of hesitation.

“Go out and take a look?” Hong Yuye asked.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded. “I’ve been here for so long that I want to see the outside world. I want to see the gentle spring rain, the scorching sun, the autumn wind, and the white snow.”

“Where do you want to go?” Hong Yuye asked.

“Overseas. I want to cross thousands of rivers and mountains and see the five lakes and four seas,” Jiang Hao said.

Hong Yuye looked at him and did not speak.

Jiang Hao did not think too much about it. It was not time to go out yet.

He still had to continue learning the array formation for another two years. He was learning slowly.

Before he left, he had to finish what he had started.

The person who targeted Lin Zhi was the same one that Xiao Li had met.

After dealing with that, he would go out.

He needed the sect’s approval and Hong Yuye’s as well.

Otherwise, he would not be able to go far.

When he walked overseas, it might be time for him to become an immortal.

Hong Yuye told Jiang Hao to make tea and left when the sky turned dark.

Jiang Hao heaved a sigh of relief and began to study the formation.

He had put aside many things at the moment. Learning about formation was the most important thing.

He had to learn it as soon as possible.

He had yet to obtain the Dragon Clan’s inheritance, so he was not in a hurry.

He could do that when he had some free time.

…

The moon hung high in the sky. Xiao Li sat under the jujube tree and looked up at the sky.

She ate the jujubes as she did so.

“I wonder which stars my mother and father became. Can’t they see me?” Xiao Li pouted.

As she muttered to herself, she walked out from under the tree and stood beneath the open sky.

She felt that this way, her parents might see her.

“I grew up! I never go hungry anymore. You’ll be very happy and proud of me if you could see me!” shouted Xiao Li into the sky in frustration.

She still missed her parents.

“I’ve been dreaming lately…” Xiao Li looked at the sky. “I don’t like dreaming!”

“What did you dream about?” asked a voice suddenly.

Xiao Li quickly turned her head to look. It was a woman in a red and white dress.

Her waist-length hair was especially eye-catching under the moonlight.

“Sister-in-law!” Xiao Li jumped up excitedly and ran to her.

She realized that she should not have called her that, so she changed her words at the last minute. “Senior Sister…”

She took out a jujube, wiped it on the clothes, and offered it to her.

Hong Yuye reached out and took it. “Are you dreaming again?”

“Yes.” Xiao Li nodded. “I don’t remember what dream I had. But I had a dream when my parents… left. Now, I only have Senior Brother as my family.”

“Is that so?” Hong Yuye sat at the side. “Are you saying that your Senior Brother is in danger?”

Li shook her head immediately. “Senior Brother won’t be in danger. He’s the most powerful person I’ve ever met.”

Hong Yuye smiled. “Have you been eating well?”

“Yes, I go to the cafeteria when I’m hungry,” Xiao Li said with a smile.

Since she had a brother, she would never starve again.

“If you speak up when you’re hungry, odds are you’ll get fed,” said Hong Yuye. “But some people are strong but too quiet. It makes you forget they’re suffering.”

“Who is suffering?” Xiao Li asked curiously.

Hong Yuye looked at her but did not speak.

She was looking at the Archean Abyss Dragon Pearl on Xiao Li’s neck.

She reached out his hand and gently lifted it up.

The Dragon Pearl, which was emitting a faint light, repelled Hong Yuye.

If it were not for the fact that the power was exhausted inside, the repelling force would have been more severe.

Xiao Li slapped the Archean Abyss Dragon Pearl.

The repelling force rapidly decreased. It was almost undetectable.

“This pearl is not obedient. You have to hit it twice sometimes,” said Xiao Li.

Hong Yuye looked at the innocent girl in front of her and withdrew her hand. “Are you happy in the Heavenly Note Sect?”

“I am!” said Xiao Li excitedly. “Senior Brother Cheng is very good to me. Junior Brother Lin Zhi, Junior Brother Chu Chuan, and now, Junior Brother Mu Yin are all great too, but they all want me to beat them up. Beast is the best. There’s also Senior Brother Mu Qi, Senior Sister Miao, Senior Brother Han, and Senior Brother Bai Yi. Senior Brother Bai Yi is acting strangely. He gives me pills to help me cultivate. He says a True Disciple should act like a True Disciple, otherwise, our Master will be in trouble. There’s also my talkative Master who always nags. And there’s Senior Brother Feng from the cafeteria, who glares at me every time I take extra food. Sometimes I go to him to complain. I don’t like him anymore.”

Hong Yuye looked at Xiao Li. She could not stop talking about these people.

She talked for a long time about their good and bad sides.

But she mostly focused on their good sides.

She admitted her own shortcomings as well.

Hong Yuye listened quietly as she ate the jujubes.

Late at night, Xiao Li fell asleep on her lap.

Hong Yuye sat upright on the chair. There was a cold aura about her that made it impossible for anyone to get close.

Her eyes were deep and calm, and her thoughts were so profound that no one could fathom it.

…

At the end of December, Jiang Hao, who was studying the array formation in the courtyard, felt the stone tablet vibrate.

It was time for a gathering again.

He heaved a sigh of relief. He could finally get news from other places.

The Heavenly Note Sect was quiet these days. He could feel that it was the same outside.

However, the news that Cheng Chou brought back made him feel that there was still danger outside.

He said that many places were experiencing changes in power. Even though they were ordinary places, powerful forces suddenly appeared there.

The disciples who entered these places never came out again.

Of course, some places held opportunities.

Many disciples of demonic sects were advancing at a rapid pace.

Chaos was beginning, but opportunities and dangers coexisted.

After confirming that there would be a gathering tonight, Jiang Hao took out the scroll. It was time to receive the second part of the inheritance.

Putting the eggshell aside, Jiang Hao saw the picture of a dragon swimming inside the scroll.

There were many scales on the dragon’s body. Each of them was covered in mysterious runes.

The moment he saw it, Jiang Hao remembered everything.

Just as the dragon’s shadow was about to dissipate, he activated the Universe in A Palm.

The inheritance was sealed. He could use it just one more time.

At that moment, Jiang Hao closed his eyes and began to understand the Dragon Transformation Technique.

At night, he opened his eyes and realized that the Dragon Transformation Technique was not truly about transforming into a dragon, but rather a body-refining method related to dragons.

But ultimately, it was about the control of one’s lifeblood.

He did not need to learn the Dragon Transformation Technique, but he needed to understand it and integrate it into his every move.

Just like the Emperor’s Sword Technique, even a simple sword strike would be too powerful.

“I can trade it with Liu.”

Jiang Hao checked the time.

He realized that it had been more than a year since they last had a gathering.

After reviewing the key points of the last gathering, Jiang Hao heaved a sigh of relief.

There was nothing to worry about.

When the time was up, Jiang Hao entered the stone tablet.

The gathering then began.
