Even if loneliness was the norm, he had never experienced this path, so he did not know how it felt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he could not answer when Hong Yuye asked him that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also wanted to ask something like that of someone who had experienced it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person before him had experienced it all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether or not the person would answer, he was prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had even braced himself for being overwhelmed by her powerful aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the other party did not speak for a long time. She left him puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What did her silence mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lonely?” After a while, Hong Yuye slowly spoke. She looked calm and indifferent. “I just like peace and quiet. I don’t revel in loneliness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she finished speaking, Hong Yuye stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao lowered his head and followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He got his answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Loneliness…’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even for the strong, if they walk far enough, loneliness was inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But within that loneliness, each person’s actions and thoughts must be different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the strong do many things to wash away the sense of loneliness, but how could they live the same life again?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When a person made friends for the first time, they were often sincere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if those friends disappeared along the road, it became difficult to make friends again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would feel like there was no reason to be friendly to someone because they disappeared eventually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He used to care about people and what they said about him when he was young, but he no longer cared because he knew they might disappear along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no point in caring about them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Jiang Hao felt that he had always been a little lonely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since he entered the Heavenly Note Sect, he had been hand-in-hand with loneliness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never tried to make friends and had tried not to get involved in other people’s affairs too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never had a deep sense of loneliness, maybe because his fate took a turn at nineteen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The calm was completely broken, and he could never go back. Thus, loneliness seemed like a small thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought that his mental state was strong enough to battle loneliness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking back, he realized that loneliness had long been filled with other things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao did not say anything else, and Hong Yuye remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them walked side by side all the way to the Jade Cloud Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were not in a hurry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Jiang Hao, there was no need to rush along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at his surroundings quietly and arrived at his destination slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the battle with the Five Demons ended, they needed a cooling period.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He calmed himself down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition, he had to recover his aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What can you see on the sea?” Hong Yuye suddenly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The seawater, I suppose,” Jiang Hao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Splash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a big fish jumped out of the water and then fell back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And fish…” Jiang Hao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a bit of bad luck, one might even encounter a sea monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuye casually said, “Looks like the number one through the ages doesn’t receive much respect when a simple fish can block his path.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Senior, you must be joking. Others might not know how powerful I am, but you know,” said Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, you don’t lie to me?” Hong Yuye asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Naturally.” Jiang Hao nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuye chuckled, and the air turned colder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you ever compared your courage with your spirit beast?” Hong Yuye asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuye did not say anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They walked for three days before arriving at the Jade Cloud Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were not slow, but they made several stops along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he arrived, Jiang Hao heard some rumors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was about him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It seems that the rumors spread faster than you travel,” Hong Yuye said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Smiling San Sheng does have some reputation overseas,” Jiang Hao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hong Yuye walked through the street, and people instinctively made way for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one dared to approach her, except Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he was dressed in a plain dark blue robe. He was not disguised as Smiling San Sheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How does it feel?” Hong Yuye asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao thought for a moment. “Being the center of attention isn’t something I like. Legends face too many challenges. My ambitions do not lie there. Perhaps a peaceful life is what suits me best.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smiling San Sheng had established his position as the number one person in the world after his battle overseas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His reputation had soared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was easy to be recognized even if he walked around casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the beginning, only a few people recognized him. However, who would dare to provoke him at this moment?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the Great Era even began, he had killed someone at the peak of the True Immortal Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Provoking Smiling San Sheng was like making a death wish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you weren’t so cautious, what would your life be like?” Hong Yuye asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exhausting,” Jiang Hao said without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would openly be making enemies of everyone and would be targeted by everyone. He would have to spend his waking hour guarding against everyone around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would be too tiring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His peaceful days would be over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any little slip could bring immense danger, just like how Smiling San Sheng was besieged by the Five Demons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would not be safe even in the Heavenly Note Sect. Those dangers would usually come from the Primordial Spirit Realm and Soul Ascension Realm cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might even be able to deal with those, but his life would not be the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which was better or worse, depended on the person. At least he preferred facing the Primordial Spirit Realm and the Soul Ascension Realm cultivators rather than immortal cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you plan to stay in the Heavenly Note Sect for the rest of your life?” Hong Yuye asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao nodded. “Life isn’t bad when I spend it taking care of your flower, Senior.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What if the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower matures?” Hong Yuye asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s still the Immortal Peach Tree,” said Jiang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>",1075,"2026-06-03T11:46:23.390Z","2026-06-03T11:46:29.085Z",1,"novelbin.me","61de7618d519b6248e03ab8de4a0c4fd791853a7df663cd4a5781cd38ad49f63","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1429","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1428",2139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-cover.jpg"]
