person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you really leave?\" Charm Goddess asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao frowned and spoke softly, \"Little Wang, see the guest off.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Woof!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Little Wang jump up, Charm Goddess was terrified and plunged into the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After which she headed deeper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao watched the black water, his gaze seeming to pierce through the water and see into the depths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only moments later did he retract his gaze, there was indeed a crack within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Charm Goddess was sent through by Little Wang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And within the crack was an altar, the objects on it Jiang Hao had not seen clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after a moment, Little Wang came back, carrying various magical treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Woof woof!\" Little Wang wore a pleading face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if to say, you can praise me now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao nodded at him, \"Well done.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Little Wang jump off the boat satisfied and continued exploring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao focused on the magical treasures; each one contained extremely substantial power, albeit somewhat faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These, these are all divine items from the altar,\" Duanmu Wuji immediately said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never imagined that the divine items, which so many sought, could be brought up so easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao casually gestured, and a Spear +1 landed in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had some mud on it, dirty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hesitating, he took out a cloth and started wiping it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You seem to have a leisurely disposition,\" Heavenly Note Sect remarked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior jests, since it is a divine item, naturally it should not be left in such a state,\" Jiang Hao said while wiping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, a green bubble fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Basic Immortal Sword +1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A long-missed feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, there was no white bubble, or it would be easy to detect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since he began wiping, he had also made certain preparations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why did you send Charm Goddess back?\" Heavenly Note Sect suddenly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao pondered and replied, \"It's not yet time for her to appear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why?\" Heavenly Note Sect asked curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shang An is still too weak, and Charm Goddess is his motivation for cultivation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If he encounters her now, he might stop progressing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And he might face issues with his primordial spirit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Although it might make him successful, it could also completely ruin him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Charm Goddess isn't someone important, but Shang An still needs to be cautious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With time, Shang An will also become stronger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At that time, though he might still be completely destroyed, if he overcomes the ordeal, perhaps his achievements will be immeasurable,\" Jiang Hao answered truthfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, he was still wiping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But halfway through wiping, a blue bubble fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Cultivation +1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quite rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He became very excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think there will be something between Shang An and Charm Goddess?\" Heavenly Note Sect asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect had asked this question before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't given a clear answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he did not know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had been so in the past, and it was still so now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would Charm Goddess change for Shang An?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Probably not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Can love change a person's worldview?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most likely not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After contemplating, Jiang Hao suddenly said, \"There's a slim chance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where does this slim chance come from?\" Heavenly Note Sect immediately asked, \"Is it because Shang An doesn't mind, or because Charm Goddess will change?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao smiled and said, \"It comes from the miracle of love.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, miracles are considered as such because they are unseen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, he still wasn't optimistic about Shang An and Charm Goddess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Jiang Hao continued to wipe the magical treasure in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon the Spear +1 was spick and span.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, two blue bubbles emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Few though they were, for a Heavenly Immortal, to still produce bubbles meant this thing was indeed remarkable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regrettably, he couldn't take it away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The altar below needed these divine items for support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gripping the Spear +1, Jiang Hao's strength began to pour into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the spear lightened up, Jiang Hao hurled it forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear stabbed into the black water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A loud noise resounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear plugged back into the altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment the distortion began to disperse, and the range of the black water began to decrease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duanmu Wuji and his daughter were shocked, but Jiang Hao paid them no heed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continued to pick up the magical treasures and started wiping them again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Cultivation +1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Lifeblood +1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Basic Immortal Sword +1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Spirit +1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, the wiping was finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He repeated the previous action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Magical treasures then fell from the sky one after another, landing in the altar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The distortion gradually dissipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black water also slowly disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Jiang Hao threw out the last divine item, everything returned to normal,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>as if nothing had happened at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the tree roots, Little Wang had eaten them long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao had not paid attention to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems there's no problem now,\" Jiang Hao looked at the calm sea ahead and said with a smile, \"Then let's go to Shangyuan Island.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you really going, Senior?\" Duanmu Wuji was somewhat surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To see that Meng Qian,\" Jiang Hao looked at the two and said, \"Aren't you going to visit your relatives?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Visit relatives, visit relatives,\" Duanmu Wuji immediately said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having such a formidable senior accompanying, he had a high chance of bringing back a spouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he would welcome it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for whether it was like bringing a wolf into the house, he was unsure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the wife was already extremely weak; if they didn't do something, it really would be too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better to try and die in the attempt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, what right did he have to refuse the person before him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just lead the way,\" Jiang Hao began to brew tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Note Sect no longer paid attention to the Charm Goddess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though curious, they left everything to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is the highest cultivation in the Hu Family?\" Jiang Hao asked Duanmu Wuji.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There may be an immortal,\" Duanmu Wuji thought for a moment and said, \"Apart from him, the juniors stand little chance against others.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, you alone could almost rival the Hu Family?\" Jiang Hao asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rival is a bit presumptuous, but given time, I indeed might match or even surpass,\" Duanmu Wuji earnestly said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's not normal,\" Jiang Hao said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, it's not normal. If the family has a powerful son-in-law like this, why would they stop it?\" Heavenly Note Sect nodded and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There might also be a chance they want a stronger power for a marriage alliance,\" Duanmu Wuji said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, he was not strong enough; otherwise, why wouldn't he even be able to meet?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is Meng Qian's cultivation?\" Jiang Hao asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At least ascended,\" Duanmu Wuji said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao nodded, it was certain that Meng Qian had ascended, just not sure if it was to the Human Emperor or True Immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such strong figures must be cautiously dealt with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking for a moment, Jiang Hao said, \"Once we get there, follow you guys and don't mind us, do as you normally would.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I need to do something, you guys just quietly stand aside.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Duanmu and his daughter showed no objection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They nodded in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, Jiang Hao conversed with Heavenly Note Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They discussed why the Hu Family disagreed and why they wouldn't let them meet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao thought it might be because of Meng Qian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the members of The End of All Things, she likely wasn't a good person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This would naturally affect the Hu Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then the Hu Family parents seem to have given no hint,\" Heavenly Note Sect said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hao felt that maybe the parents themselves were bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or perhaps they indeed didn't favor Duanmu Wuji.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or maybe Duanmu Wuji had lied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were deeper reasons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carrying their curiosity, the two arrived at Shangyuan Island the next day at noon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one paid much attention to their arrival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the ship was decent, it was just decent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not practical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please follow us, seniors,\" Duanmu Wuji respectfully spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hu Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a middle-aged man and woman were discussing something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, they heard a servant report.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The originally decent expressions darkened a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That failure is here again?\" the middle-aged man said displeased:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really thinks he's some genius just because he entered the Immortal Ascension Realm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our Hu Family still doesn't value him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He comes every year, and this year we need to make him understand that our Hu Family is not something he can covet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And that little bastard, really thinks having our Hu Family's bloodline, we would value him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, our Hu Family will be the number one family on Shangyuan Island, and then we can pursue even stronger powers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We might even contact the Twelve Heavenly Kings or have more dealings with Heavenly Tower,\" the middle-aged woman said with longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more they thought about it, the more they felt that Duanmu Wuji, who had suddenly risen, was insignificant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn't he just lucky, leading his family from a desperate situation to survival?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What's the big deal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with a few more hundred years, he wouldn't match even a fraction of their Hu Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for the resources their Hu Family had given at the beginning, Duanmu Wuji would have been nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he has some strength, he dares to speak loudly in their presence?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn't it because they don't let their daughter marry that he can't find a spouse?\u003C\u002Fp>",1593,"2026-06-03T11:46:33.111Z","2026-06-03T11:46:38.521Z",1,"novelbin.me","61a3807b385c934cf30bb48518cfefa4ee051801f59693c8cb4afa4503cd36fe","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1552","cultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-chapter-1650",2139,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivating-in-secret-beside-a-demoness-cover.jpg"]
