Jiang Hao headed toward the Thousand Springs River.

After several days of walking, he finally saw the outline of the river.

From a distance, he saw many mountains. A river flowed from the top to bottom.

Many springs and tributaries converged into a river.

This was the Thousand Springs River.

Jiang Hao found that each spring was like nature’s hot spring.

“It’s a pity that there’s no inn here,” Jiang Hao said and sighed.

Hong Yuye glanced at him.

Jiang Hao didn’t say much and looked ahead. He wanted to find clues about Sage’s Pages.

However, no matter how he looked, he could find nothing.

He didn’t know if the clue he had found was accurate or not.

The path to the springs was paved.

Jiang Hao and Hong Yuye walked together and headed toward the highest point of the mountain.

They wanted to take a look because they were hopeful that they could find something there.

“Friend…” said someone from close by.

Jiang Hao turned and saw a young man sitting under a tree.

He looked familiar.

“Did you call me, Senior?” Jiang Hao asked.

“Senior?” The young man smiled. “My status is not that high. I’m just slightly higher in the cultivation realm than you. I just wanted to say that… don’t go up there. The path is full of curses. It’s fine here, but it’s hard to say if you’ll be safe beyond this point.”

“Curses?” Jiang Hao looked and saw only faint traces of curses.

“Yes.” He Du nodded. “This path has been cursed by Granny Kufa. If you go up, you might suffer. I heard she is waiting for someone up there for revenge.” “Granny Kufa?” Jiang Hao was surprised.

He thought the curse had disappeared, and Granny Kufa might have given up.

Unexpectedly, she was still waiting for him.

She was actually quite knowledgeable. How had she found out that he was going to be here?

Jiang Hao didn’t know if she had just guessed it or found out by other means.

“Yes. Do you know about Granny Kufa, Friend?” He Du asked.

For a Golden Core Realm cultivator like him, it was natural for him not to know about powerful people like that.

Jiang Hao nodded. “I’ve heard about her a couple of times. What do you think of her, Senior?”

“She is a person who possesses a special magic treasure but acts recklessly. It’s said that some major sects tried to kill her, but she escaped every time and then began to retaliate. She targets talented disciples of major sects for revenge. She is difficult to guard against. There was a powerful expert who tried to chase her but wasn’t able to kill her. She almost killed him. A senior had to intervene to resolve the matter,” said He Du.

“What kind of magic treasure is it that allows her to be so reckless?” Jiang Hao was curious.

“It’s something related to curses and survival,” said He Du. “According to some seniors, it might be related to the Longevity Clan. They didn’t elaborate on the details. But Granny Kufa is formidable. It’s said that she is likely involved with some formidable existence, so those who can actually kill her are reluctant to act against her. They just let her be. In recent years, she has been a bit bearable because she had a grandson. Unfortunately, her grandson was killed some time ago. Now, she has gone crazy. It’s better not to provoke her, Friend.”

“If she’s so terrifying, what are you still doing here, Senior?” Jiang Hao asked.

“It’s because… she has been useful for my Master. At least, she used to be. I’m not so sure now… A crazy person wouldn’t care about friends or foes anyway,”

“Do you think her grandson deserved his death?” Jiang Hao asked after some thought.

“I never saw him, but based on rumors, her grandson was even more reckless and despicable than her. I… feel like it’s better that he is dead,” said He Du.

“Indeed… This Granny Kufa sounds really troublesome,” said Jiang Hao.

The people around her weren’t really scared of her cultivation realm but more about her going crazy and attacking everyone.

“Senior, are you from the Astronomical Academy?” Jiang Hao asked.

He had been thinking about where he had seen this person before.

Now, he remembered meeting him when he visited the Bright Moon Sect.

He had seen him use the Light and Dust Technique before.

“Your eyes are sharp!” He Du was surprised.

Jiang Hao didn’t say much and continued to walk toward the mountain peak.

He Du was shocked. Hadn’t he explained things properly?

He swallowed the words he was going to utter and followed along.

Jiang Hao and Hong Yuye walked up the stone steps and looked around. They were unhurried as if they were strolling leisurely in a courtyard.

As for the curses, they didn’t get close to them.

Even without using the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, Jiang Hao could easily resist these things.

The path that looked deserted soon filled with people.

A crowd gathered.

When they saw the cultivation realm of the two people, they sighed sadly.

They thought these two were inexperienced, so they didn’t know what was coming their way.

It surprised them more that He Du followed them.

Some people felt that he was there to protect those two.

“A Golden Core Realm cultivator… Does he think highly of himself?” Some people whispered along the roadside.

They knew that making it to the Golden Core Realm usually made people feel invincible.

However, as time passed, they realized that the Golden Core Realm was just the beginning.

Jiang Hao didn’t pay attention to the people around him. He continued ahead and finally reached the peak.

At that moment, he still hadn’t sensed any special aura, but he felt the curses starting to intensify. It pressed down on him.

Besides Jiang Hao, people around also felt the curse’s power.

“Friend, the curse is stronger here,” He Du said.

Jiang Hao paid no attention to the curse but whispered, “Granny Kufa doesn’t dare show herself, does she?”

Although he knew where the opponent was, he was sure.

It was necessary to understand the opponent’s weakness to deal with them in one go.

Since Granny Kufa was seen as troublesome by everyone, it was best to deal with her in one blow.

He Du was surprised.

The others also felt astonished.

Was this person deliberately provoking Granny Kufa?

They had thought this newcomer was just ignorant and reckless, but now, they felt that perhaps he had some tricks up his sleeves. The curse intensified, but Granny Kufa didn’t appear.

She was probably observing him.

Jiang Hao took out the golden wheel.

In an instant, he felt the curse’s power erupting like a wave, followed by a figure in the void.

That was an effective concealment technique.

“It’s you! You killed my grandson!” Granny Kufa looked at him in hatred and anger. “My grandson wouldn’t even harm an ant, but you killed him!”

Jiang Hao looked at her calmly.

First, he needed to appraise her..
