What difference does it make if I'm here or out there?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You, a mere Spirit Refinement practitioner, dare to instruct me?\" Heavenly King Hai Luo scoffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hai Luo, are you not afraid of lifting a rock only to drop it on your own foot?\" Mi Lingyue asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am strong, do you think everyone is as delicate as you, that they might injure themselves lifting a rock?\" Heavenly King Hai Luo replied contemptuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little bastard, aren't you afraid your voice is too loud?\" Zhuang Yuzhen asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha!\" Heavenly King Hai Luo laughed heartily:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As a lofty immortal, what's wrong with speaking loudly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao ignored Hai Luo and turned to the others, \"The good times have come; actually, there's no need to remain here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If possible, Jiang Hao indeed wished that these people could finish dealing with their matters and then leave Lawless Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These individuals were extraordinary; their presence would make the grand era even more fascinating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more interesting things became outside, the safer he would be staying in the Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because few would turn their eyes towards it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's too dangerous out there. Let us cultivate here,\" Mi Lingyue said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right, give Senior Zhuang a chance. He likely could surpass Heavenly King Hai Luo,\" the lantern bearer suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew Zhuang Yuzhen was an immortal when he came in, and at that time, immortals were surely not ordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, with the grand era's arrival, he was destined to soar to the heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't there nowhere to go if we leave?\" Zhuang Yuzhen spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao looked at Zhuang Yuzhen but kept silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding the cultivation that Mi Lingyue mentioned, Jiang Hao could not interfere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Zhuang Yuzhen's reluctance to leave was likely because he was vulnerable outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't return to the Divine Corpse Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, naturally, it was best to stay here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the Heavenly Note Sect endured the grand era's turmoil, and Lawless Tower was indestructible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nowhere was safer than here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what if he returned the Corpse Heart to him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he'd be an immortal upon departure, or perhaps even progress further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Hao said, \"What if that item bloomed?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yuzhen was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He understood what Jiang Hao meant, yet he still shook his head, \"It's safer here, but proposal number three is still a good one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The decision is not mine to make,\" Jiang Hao shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then turned towards Mi Lingyue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was not going to leave. With the advent of the grand era, the Mind Control Core of the Great Thousand God Sect had grown stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving this place might lead to her death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, she still needed to stay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the lantern bearer,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao couldn't quite grasp why he chose to remain: \"Brother, aren't you leaving?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm not leaving. I find this place much more interesting than the outside. I believe I still have value. After all, I'm unique. What if the Heavenly Note Sect decides to explore my background in the future?\" the lantern bearer said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, Jiang Hao approached Yan Shang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn't dare to step outside, similar to Mi Lingyue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yan Shang was more extreme, the knife was still whirling in her destiny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving would mean death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last of all was Old Man Corpse Sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do want to go out,\" Old Man Corpse Sea stated frankly, \"I can provide some things, but I need your assurance that I can safely enter the place I wish to go. Do you know of that place?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Promises? Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Were the assurances of the Heavenly Note Sect valuable?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lawless Tower still had some reputation, as long as the benefits were sufficient, they would hope to collaborate again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like Lady Bi Zhu and Mu Longyu,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both had long-term cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Corpse Sea was extraordinary in his own right, and the benefits he could offer should be worth another collaboration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, offending someone with Old Man Corpse Sea's background held no advantages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment's reflection, Jiang Hao nodded, \"I will mention it to my senior sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Man Corpse Sea's brows slightly furrowed. The other party hadn't made a promise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after a moment's thought, he nodded, \"Good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person before him wielded absolute authority on the fifth floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed that Lawless Tower wouldn't want to compromise that status here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, leaving from the fifth floor would be the most secure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, Jiang Hao turned around, intending to chat with the Heavenly King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just after he took a few steps, Old Man Corpse Sea said, \"Aren't you going to gain something from me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao looked at Old Man Corpse Sea, \"Senior, what can you tell me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anything. You can ask whatever questions you have; if I know it, I will share it with you,\" Old Man Corpse Sea said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao didn't hold back, \"Senior, do you know about the dragon race?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you referring to the dragon from Ancient Sword Cliff?\" Old Man Corpse Sea asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao shook his head, \"I mean the regular dragon race, or anything related to it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A sect in the North has something related to dragons. Let me think... It should be the sect by Sky Sword Lake. I never paid attention to its specific name,\" Old Man Corpse Sea pondered and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao nodded, \"Thank you, senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this, Old Man Corpse Sea also breathed a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he had provided something valuable, naturally he would be more diligently ensured good treatment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This information wasn't immediately useful to the current Jiang Hao, but it couldn't be ruled out as useful in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>",1106,"2026-06-03T11:46:36.654Z","2026-06-03T11:46:32.358Z",1,"novelbin.me","135ca69a6d89bb6d963a622fe6241031544ddc1d06121194a22eb950e9d23432","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1525","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1523",2139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-cover.jpg"]
