In the forest, the starlight was hidden.

A red sun leaped out of the mountains.

The light shone down.

Jiang Hao stood under the tree and looked into the distance.

He had come out of the courtyard and made his way into the forest. He could feel the surrounding changes.

The spirit beast was beside him and had only returned recently.

It said that its friends were too enthusiastic and dragged it down underwater.

That was why it was late.

Jiang Hao nodded.

The spirit beast indeed had a lot of friends.

“Master, have you recovered?” asked the spirit beast.

Jiang Hao looked at it. He did not say anything.

“How has Lin Zhi been lately?” he asked instead.

He wanted to ask about him before, but he could not do it with Hong Yuye around.

It was not that he did not want to ask that, but the spirit beast was usually not present when Hong Yuye appeared.

“He was transferred out of the mine and is now guarding it. Some people secretly steal ores because his cultivation realm is weak,” said the spirit beast. “He’s still getting beat up.”

“He never thought of leaving the mine?” Jiang Hao asked.

“No. He said that it’s pretty good there. Everyone is very straightforward,” said the spirit beast. “He told me to say hello to you, master.”

Jiang Hao nodded. He was not sure what was going on with Lin Zhi.

He finally had time. Perhaps he should go and look.

‘I wonder if I can dig for ores at the mine.’ Jiang Hao thought.

Unfortunately, with his current cultivation realm, digging for half a day like before was useless. If he wanted to dig, he would have to keep at it for a long time, at least for a few years. That way, he could advance faster.

Jiang Hao went to the courtyard and watered the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower. He then trimmed the spirit herbs.

Only then did he pluck two heavenly peaches and leave.

By the river, the sunlight stretched as Jiang Hao and the spirit beast sat side by side.

The spirit beast stepped on its own shadow as it moved forward.

It was having fun.

“Master, do you want to meet the mistress I told you about last time?” asked the spirit beast.

Jiang Hao glanced at the spirit beast and continued walking forward.

“This time, the three of us chose the most suitable mistress for you, Master,” said the spirit beast. “Even my friends from the underworld said she was perfect for you. We’re just waiting for you to meet her.”

Jiang Hao smiled. “Who else was involved?”

“Xiao Li,” said the rabbit.

Jiang Hao chuckled.

He remembered that Xiao Li was against finding anyone else for him. She would definitely not agree to get on board with this.

Then, he heard a plop. The spirit beast jumped into the river to catch a fish.

It said it wanted to eat grilled fish for lunch.

Jiang Hao let it be.

When they arrived at the Spirit Herb Garden, Jiang Hao saw Xiao Li.

“Senior Brother Jiang!” Xiao Li’s eyes lit up when she saw him.

The worry was gone.

“Here you go.” Jiang Hao handed over a peach to her.

Xiao Li was delighted.

After that, Jiang Hao entered the spirit field. He had not been here for many months.

He looked at the Spirit Herb Garden and took in the scent of the soil. The familiarity of the place made it feel like home.

It was as though he could sense the emotions of the spirit herbs.

He could see some people there.

He could suddenly notice everything he had failed to see before.

He had been in despair and had no hope left at that time.

“Senior Brother Jiang!” Cheng Chou said excitedly.

This was the first time Jiang Hao had come to the Spirit Herb Garden after his seclusion.

Cheng Chou had been concerned for Jiang Hao because his condition had looked terrible before.

It was as if…

He did not dare think about it.

He only guessed that something must have gone wrong during Jiang Hao’s mission.

Everyone had felt the impact of the incident.

It was normal for some missions to go wrong.

That was what Cheng Chou thought, and so did the others.

Some people noticed that Jiang Hao had not appeared for a long time, so they were certain that there was something wrong with his condition and wanted to challenge him.

However, those who wanted to challenge him had to wait for half a year.

There were already people in line.

Cheng Chou told him about this.

“It’s fine.” Jiang Hao shook his head.

These things did not matter to him. When the time came, he would just deal with them one by one.

After that, he heard Cheng Chou talk about the Spirit Herb Garden. He said that other branches had taken care of some spirit herbs.

But if they did not get back to it, they might have to pay a lot of spirit stones as fines.

Jiang Hao listened attentively.

These were all small matters.

There was also the problem of lack of workers.

An ordinary non-cultivator had a broken leg. He had apparently bumped into an inner sect disciple and had been punished for it.

He was unable to work in the garden.

“The Senior Brother insisted that this person had damaged the spirit herbs. The ordinary non-cultivator tried to defend himself against the accusation and got his legs broken.”

“How old is he?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Nineteen years old,” Cheng Chou said.

“How serious is his condition?”

“His bones seem to be broken.”

“Since he can’t do anything here, send him back home,” Jiang Hao said.

He handed over three Healing Talismans.

“Do it when you have time,” Jiang Hao said calmly.

If it was someone older, they would have begged for mercy and kept quiet. That was how they survived long.

If non-cultivators tried arguing with cultivators, they would get killed.

The reason the non-cultivator only escaped with a broken leg was because the Spirit Herb garden was under Jiang Hao’s supervision, and he had just become a candidate for the seat of the top disciple.

It was not good to murder workers under his command. They did not want to have a beef with someone who would someday become a top disciple of the sect.

However, the non-cultivator was of no use. So, he needed to be sent away.

After that, Jiang Hao took care of the spirit herbs for a while. He heaved a sigh of relief when the thorns did not cut him.

Although it had been just a simple prick last time, it had still rattled him.

In the afternoon, Jiang Hao arrived at the Lawless Tower.

The place felt strange. It was as though there had been a huge fight here. There were traces of struggle.

He did not know what had happened.

Some of the aura had not dissipated yet. It must have happened recently.
