Its been a month since the incident where Jessica got infamous around the world. Few people in the City became afraid of her. Only Jessica's close confidants stayed the same. Madame Su Meng comforts Jessica who is embarrassed from all the visits of strange characters in her home. That farm is being surrounded by Cultivators who wanted to challenge Jessica.
Jessica has been passively defending herself and even got ambushed in the forest at north. She had been holding back by not using her magic spells, thus she got a nickname "Ogre". She does not want a barbaric nickname like Ogre. "Me being called a Witch is a privilege..." mumbled Jessica with no energy. She hasn't done any farming for few days, which resulted death of her potted crops from lack of water. At least she saved her poor Conjoined Flower. Shameless Cultivators kept stealing Jessica's Conjoined Flower to the point it got extinct in Windy Sky City border.
Yang Weilong had enough disrespect and pleaded for the emperor to make a law that punishes Cultivators that distrupting the daily lives of his citizens. Dokju helped convince the emperor to pass the law, along with the Sword Saint Liang Ri and the Patriarch Zhang Jiao. Everyone is really dumbfounded to see a Malevolent Sect actually doing good deeds for like three years.
All of the four are surprised when they looked at each other, then understood their intentions. Liang Ri said, "So you've met Miss Jessica before." Zhang Jiao nods and said, "Indeed, and I have learned many from her techniques." The four of them converse for a while. Yang Weilong asked Zhang Jiao why is he doing respectful and honorable deeds when he is supposed to be a Malevolent Cultivator.
Zhang Jiao is well known for his cursed techniques and brilliant talisman user who became an Elder before reaching 300 years old. He is cold and merciless, and killed many Cultivators who dared to step in his way. But three years ago, Zhang Jiao created a new Sect, the Heavenly Mountain Sect, and trained only one Disciple who is also the Sect Leader.
"That Disciple of yours is a Demon, is it not?" asked Liang Ri. Dokju raised his fist and glared at Zhang Jiao. "You scoundrel! Do you know what will happen when a Demon gets very strong?!" he shouted in anger. Zhang Jiao silently sips his tea and said, "She's no Demon I've ever seen." Zhang Jiao described his Disciple the same kind as Jessica, who is able to use the same kind of techniques that controls the element using Mana.
Yang Weilong is quite interested in Zhang Jiao's Disciple. Same kind as Jessica. But then he wondered how Zhang Jiao knew how Jessica's abilities work. "How you will teach your disciple if your teachings is not compatible with her talents?" he asked. Zhang Jiao did not speak any word, but instead, demonstrate his ability to use the same techniques as Jessica. Three of them are shocked. "I am qualified to be the Master of my student." said Zhang Jiao.
Liang Ri smiles. She is quite impressed at Zhang Jiao's intellect. "Am I perhaps, have your permission to visit the Heavenly Mountain Sect? I want to see what your Disciple can do." she politely asked. Zhang Jiao thinks about it for a while. He replied, "I will ask my dear student first." Liang Ri agrees with his suggestion.
Yang Weilong asked, "What was Jessica like back then 5 years ago?" Liang Ri gladly answered Yang Weilong's question. "She was quite young and brazen. She often charges ahead with no care for herself. But her spirit is no doubt, a heroic spirit who can burn evil away with her holy light." Zhang Jiao suddenly burst out a laughter. Everyone did not expect to see a cold blooded cultivator to break out of character.
"Her? Heroic? Tell that to my Disciple's people. Jessica is still a child under the guise of a mature woman. She is a cold-blooded killer with an innocent mind." said Zhang Jiao. Liang Ri gets angry and asked Zhang Jiao to take back what he said. Although Dokju wanted to intervene, his Realm is significantly lower than the two. "Senior Liang, Elder Zhang, can we settle this another time? Jessica is still in trouble because of my blunder." Dokju sincerely asked.
The four of them decided to cooperate with one another, and help Jessica behind the scenes. Meanwhile, Jessica herself is fighting again. She is facing some third-rate elders of a third-rate Sect. "This is getting annoying right now." said Jessica as she makes her stance.
