Jiang Hao had been away from the sect for more than ten years. Many things must have happened in the sect at that time.

He wanted to roughly understand what had occurred.

Naturally, he needed to settle his own affairs first.

He did not want to lose his identity as a candidate for the seat of the top disciple.

That was of great benefit to him.

One of the most important advantages of it was that no one disturbed him for trivial matters.

Although there was no need to worry about threats from them while in the sect, frequent underhanded actions would only lead to suspicion and complications.

It was easy to be suspected here.

Something formidable was needed to deter mischief-makers.

Status and position were the best tools for this.

When the Great Era War arrived, he did not want to be a nobody, but he also did not want to catch the attention of someone powerful.

He just wanted a middle ground. Not being pestered by the weak, while not being underestimated by the strong was just enough.

This way, he would have fewer troubles, and the outside world would not pay too much attention to him.

He could hide in the Heavenly Note Sect and cultivate in peace.

He did not care how serious the commotion outside would be when the Great Era War arrived.

He just wanted peace.

“Is there anything else other than the matter with the candidacy?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Senior Brother Han was looking for you before, but he has been away for the past few years. He might look for you again when he returns,” said Cheng Chou.

Jiang Hao nodded.

Presumably, he wanted to challenge him again.

However, there was a chance that the other party would advance to the middle stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm. If that was the case, it would be even better.

After that, Cheng Chou talked about the changes in the sect in recent years.

In the past fifteen years, the sect had fought with many forces, big and small.

However, what surprised Jiang Hao the most was that Azure Mountain had started to cooperate with them in the past two years.

For some reason, they started to get along peacefully again.

There might be some conflict of interest.

This puzzled Jiang Hao.

In addition, the people from the Blackheaven Sect had come over a few times.

The candidates would be issued a challenge for battle. The selected candidates rarely made a move.

Jiang Hao felt that it was best to become a top disciple as soon as possible.

From the looks of it, the sect did not have any obvious beef with the other sects.

The Corpse Realm was about to open again.

He wondered if there would be any changes because of the Great Era War.

These things did not matter to Jiang Hao that much. Whether he could go to the Corpse Realm or not would be decided later.

He focused on increasing his cultivation and went back to his daily routine.

He could feel that it was far from easy for him to increase his cultivation after becoming an immortal.

He needed to make some changes in his state of mind.

If one’s state of mind was not enough, he would not be able to advance even if his cultivation was sufficient.

In addition, he had to determine how long it would take to obtain the bubbles.

There were many things to consider.

All of them needed to be completed one by one on peaceful days.

He had to take advantage of the arrival of the Great Era War to increase his cultivation.

Otherwise, there would be a lot of trouble.

The Black Dragon Clan, the True Dragon Clan, the Fallen Immortal Clan, the Heavenly Spirit Tribe, and the Great Thousand God Sect were all vying to cause trouble for him.

The Holy Master would also become stronger. At that time, he would be able to escape from his control.

If he did it right, he could progress very fast.

He did not know how strong the Holy Master was at his peak.

After listening to Cheng Chou talk about some things, Jiang Hao understood the changes in the sect.

Other than the people around him, these changes did not affect him much.

He did not have to care too much about it.

He glanced at the Spirit Herb Garden and realized that there were many new faces there.

Half of the people he was familiar with were gone.

It was unknown if they had left or died.

He did not ask about it.

Everyone had their own fate to fulfill.

Even if he knew the reason, he would not be of much help to them.

Who would not want to live well if they could?

After that, Jiang Hao met his Master.

His Master’s cultivation was very clear. He had only recently advanced to the Immortal Ascension Platform.

It seemed that he would not be able to catch up even with the opportunity of the Great Era War.

However, to be able to become an immortal at that time was also considered a great opportunity.

“You’re back?” Ku Wu Chang asked.

His voice was as indifferent as ever.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao lowered his head. “I’ll be continuing the sect’s mission soon.”

He was talking about guarding the Spirit Herb Garden.

It had been more than ten years. If he wanted to come back and take over, he needed his Master’s approval.

After all, he displayed his cultivation only at the middle stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm.

It would look arrogant to just go and take over the garden after the massive gap in years.

He was willing to stay in the Spirit Herb Garden, but there were too many people there.

He was a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator. Xiao Li was a Golden Core Realm cultivator. Cheng Chou was also a Golden Core Realm cultivator.

In the past, a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was enough to guard the Spirit Herb Garden.

There was not a single Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator around.

“You’re in the middle stage of the Primordial Spirit Realm?” Ku Wu Chang asked.

He did not say anything about the sect’s mission.

“Yes.” Jiang Hao nodded.

“You’re too slow,” Ku Wuchang said softly. “Han Ming has successfully advanced to the middle stage. He has caught up to you.”

“Junior Brother Han’s talent is astonishing, and he has the potential to be a top disciple. It’s only a matter of time before he surpasses me,” said Jiang Hao.

Junior Brother Han Ming’s strength was indeed impressive.

However, advancing to the middle stage was a little too fast even for him.

Ku Wu Chang looked at Jiang Hao. “The Heavenly Joy Pavilion will no longer target you.”

Jiang Hao lowered his head. His Master was asking him if he wanted to be removed from the suspect list.

Indeed, it would be very easy for him to remove himself from the list.

Once the name list was released, his Master could make him a True Disciple.

Jiang Hao was silent.

He would become a legacy disciple.

However, if he accepted that, he would not receive spirit stones from the Task Hall.

At first, he wanted to complete the mission, but later on, he decided something else.

Receiving spirit stones actually had its benefits. They would help solve problems when needed.

Previously, the Task Hall had also helped with his candidacy.

They did their best to help him if he did not lack spirit stones.

“I can vouch for the name list,” said Ku Wu Chang softly.
