Chapter 1025: Defeating the Enemy in One Move

Jiang Hao occasionally saw him, but they had not talked much.

From the spiritual fluctuations and the vast aura, it was clear that this was no ordinary person.

Those who fought drunk usually had such a demeanor. Their aura and power always seemed to surge.

They were very unpredictable.

If Jiang Hao was not careful, he might end up dead here.

“When I first met you, you were still in the Foundation Establishment Realm, Junior Brother. I didn’t expect you to advance so quickly in just a few years. Now, you’re in the same realm as me. How impressive!” said Jiu Wu. “It won’t take you long to surpass me, I’m sure. You’re truly amazing.”

Jiu Wu sighed and took a long swig from his wineskin.

“Senior Brother, you must be joking. I was lucky enough to find some opportunities to get here. I’m nothing compared to a genius disciple like you who is destined for great things,” said Jiang Hao.

Jiu Wu laughed. “Come now! An advancement to a higher realm is an advancement. It doesn’t matter what the method might be. Ours is a demonic sect. Results matter. It doesn’t matter how one does things. But I must warn you. It won’t be easy to defeat me.”

“Senior Brother, I’m very sorry to raise my hand on you,” said Jiang Hao and bowed.

When the fight began, the two were so fast that they were a blur. They were looking for an opening to strike.

Boom!

A powerful force exploded.

In an instant, wine spilled everywhere.

Flames flared.

Jiang Hao waved the blade in his hand in a sea of fire and fought with Senior Brother Jiu Wu.

Each move shook the surroundings, and the Demonic Sound Slash reverberated.

Boom!!

The blade light split the flames and caused huge waves.

Jiang Hao was extremely fast as he chased after the source of the sea of fire.

Every move was decisive as if he was afraid any slip might end in defeat.

The sea of fire surged and exploded with a bang. Then, it shattered.

Jiang Hao was sent flying.

Jiu Wu also retreated to the edge.

At that moment, the two of them stood facing each other. Their eyes locked in focus.

Jiu Wu sighed. “You are indeed amazing.”

He was not seriously injured, but the sea of fire was broken.

There was no need to continue the fight. He would be defeated anyway.

“Thank you for showing mercy on me, Senior Brother.” Jiang Hao lowered his head in respect.

“I see you’re humble as well, Junior Brother.” Jiu Wu turned to leave.

As he drank his wine, he felt a little melancholic.

He had looked down on Jiang Hao.

He felt a little uneasy because Jiang Hao had defeated him.

However, a defeat was a defeat. He had to accept it courteously.

He could only blame himself for underestimating Jiang Hao and not considering him a worthy opponent.

Jiang Hao let out a sigh of relief. Then, he went to a corner and sat down.

In the afternoon, the final round began.

A Senior Brother was already standing in the arena.

He looked quite young and had a stubble.

His eyes were piercingly cold, and divine light shone from his power technique.

His baleful aura was heavy.

‘He seems very strong but not as strong as Senior Brother Jiu Wu… I wonder who he is…’ Jiang Hao thought.

It must be a senior who had just returned from outside. Jiang Hao had never seen him before.

The person looked at Jiang Hao skeptically.

He had underestimated his enemy.

‘This is good too. If he fights me with the power of the peak of the Golden Core Realm, I’ll try my best to withstand it. If he attacks me with the baleful aura, I’ll take him down in two moves.’

If he used the baleful aura first, it would make it evident that this person had underestimated him.

That would give him an opening.

If Jiang Hao held back, he would come off as pretentious. It was better to end it in a few moves.

After all, the strength he had displayed in his battle with Senior Brother Jiu Wu was enough to make his case.

“You won against Senior Brother Jiu Wu?” Lu Yuan asked.

“I was just lucky and Senior Brother showed me mercy,” said Jiang Hao.

“How strong are you?” Lu Yuan asked. “How strong do you think the disciples from other branches are?”

“They would definitely be stronger than me,” Jiang Hao said modestly.

“Then, why are you risking your life? I see your energy isn’t very stable,” Lu Yuan said.

Jiang Hao shook his head. “I’m just trying my best. If I lose, I’ll learn something from it. I’m just to receive guidance from my seniors during this time.”

“You’re quite open-minded, but you think like a simpleton,” said Lu Yuan. “I won’t show you any mercy, nor will I teach you anything. I will defeat you with all my strength and let you see the difference between two people at the peak of the Golden Core Realm.”

“That junior has already revealed his cards too early,” said Miao Tinglian in the audience.

“He’s not showing off. You’ve been at the Spirit Herb garden for too long,” said Ning Xuan. “Mu Qi has sheltered you well. You rarely find people like that in the Spirit Herb garden. That’s why you think he is showing off.”

Miao Tinglian nodded. That was true.

In the past, there were a few people who visited the Spirit Herb Garden to harass those who were in lower cultivation realms. However, those kinds of people had decreased a lot in the past few years.

They did not dare to do it because of Mu Qi and Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao’s ability to grow spirit herbs was unparalleled by anyone in the sect, so most people preferred not to offend him.

At that moment, Jiu Wu walked over to them.

“You were defeated too?” asked Miao Tinglian.

“Yes.” Jiu Wu nodded. “Just by a little.”

“Who do you think will win?” Miao Tinglian asked.

“That depends on how Junior Brother Lu makes his move,” said Jiu Wu and took another swig of wine.

“I don’t know much about him. If he makes the right move, can he win?” Miao Tinglian asked.

“I can only say that it’s possible,” said Jiu Wu.

At that moment, Mu Qi had instructed them to prepare.

Then, the fight began.

Lu Yuan stood up. The baleful aura around him surged. It wanted to suppress the other party’s soul.

Ning Xuan and Jiu Wu both sighed.

Miao Tinglian also felt it.

“Junior Brother Lu has lost already.” Jiu Wu shook his head and turned to leave.

Lu Yuan did not underestimate the other party. He needed to suppress him with his baleful aura.

After that, he would decide how to make his next move.

However, when the murderous aura surged, he saw a sword that lit up the heavens.

Immediately after, the biting cold saber intent whistled over with unstoppable force. He could not see anything.

When he came back to his senses, the sword was placed against his shoulder.

“Thank you for letting me win, Senior Brother,” said Jiang Hao.

After Mu Qi declared the winner, Jiang Hao turned around and left.

Lu Yuan was in a daze. He could not believe that he had lost in just one move.

If Jiang Hao had intended to kill, he would have been already dead.

He had lost!

He was in shock.

He had always believed that Jiang Hao was not that big of a deal. The moment they exchanged blows, he realized that his arrogance had led him to doom.

Jiang Hao returned to the Spirit Herb Garden.

Xiao Li sat in a shabby pavilion and some ordinary non-cultivators praised her for the day’s fight.

“Senior Brother Jiang, I won!” she said excitedly when she saw Jiang Hao walking over to her.

“Is that so?” Jiang Hao smiled.

“Yeah, Beast’s friends helped. I won very quickly,” said Xiao Li.

Jiang Hao looked at her carefully. “Why did you want to win so badly?”

Usually, Xiao Li did not care for competition.

“Senior Brother Cheng doesn’t have anything useful for his cultivation. I always hear people saying Senior Brother Cheng’s progress is so slow and that he might not live long if he doesn’t improve. They say that even if you’re your support, he might not lead a good life,” said Xiao Li angrily. “They’re so annoying. I heard that those who win will receive resources for cultivation. So, I participated. If I win, I’ll give them to Senior Brother Cheng. That way, he can advance faster. Then, no one can point fingers at him.”

Jiang Hao was surprised. So that was why she was so adamant to win.

Being criticized by others was not necessarily a bad thing.

Cheng Chou was different from others. His talent was not that great.

It was his state of mind that he needed to work on. Advancing quickly did not really promise any benefits.

But Xiao Li did not care about that.

Cheng Chou had always taken her home to her village when she wanted to go. So, she would do anything to help him out of gratitude.

It was not a bad idea. Xiao Li’s thinking made sense.

After that, Jiang Hao gave her the three peaches from the peach tree.

“Thank you, Senior Brother Jiang!” Xiao Li jumped up excitedly.

At that moment, Cheng Chou ran in. He looked excited.

When he saw Xiao Li happy, he was curious about what had happened to make her react that way. “Junior Sister, did you get something delicious to eat again?”

Xiao Li put away the peaches.

“Yeah.” Jiang Hao nodded. “That’s why she’s happy.”

Xiao Li did not intend to tell Cheng Chou about the reason she was participating in this competition. Jiang Hao would not reveal her secret either.

He would leave it up to Xiao Li. When she gave Cheng Chou some resources for his cultivation, he would be elated.

“Senior Brother Jiang, I received a letter from Junior Brother Chu today,” Cheng Chou said seriously.

Xiao Li and the spirit beast bounded over.

They had not heard from Chu Chuan for a long time.
