Sincere_1 After an indeterminable amount of time, Jiang Wang stood up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t calm his True Spirit of Dao Veins, and he was powerless against that mysterious black candle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The unease in his heart couldn’t be erased, but on the other hand, the promise from Dong Ah sustained him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking over the entire world, Zhuang Country might be small, but the power of the state machinery should not be underestimated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they took it seriously to respond, an evil cult like Bone Tao, which had been dormant for hundreds of years, probably wouldn’t be able to cause much trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, at the start of its founding, Zhuang Country had fought a fierce battle with Yong Country and emerged victorious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After so many years, enduring the targeted hostility from Yong Country, it still maintained stable national fortunes, and its strength should not be overlooked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if an overwhelming disaster is about to come…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Ah and City Lord Wei are strong, Chief Ji Xuan of Qinghe County is nearby, and Qing River is not far away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the centuries-old alliance, the lord of Qing River will not sit by and watch a domain of Zhuang Country be erased.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And, last time on Jade Balance Peak, Bai Lian said that Zhuang Country has a powerful individual with the Divine Skills of Zhi Chi Tian Ya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should Fenglin City face any trouble, he can arrive in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are also the nearby cities of Wangjiang and Three Mountains…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right, City Lord Dou Yuemei commands Mountain Divine Power and has great combat strength; she won’t ignore the peril of a neighboring city.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang analyzed logically, sorting out all the favorable factors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the conclusion, it seemed he was overly anxious for nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that feeling of unease was stubborn and inescapable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided not to bother with it anymore and continued to walk outside the compound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talk with Ru Cheng for a bit, then go buy some treats for Anan, and afterwards head home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he saw Tang Dun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the entrance of the Daoist compound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tang Dun!” Jiang Wang called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, Tang Dun was dressed in a short jacket and cotton pants, scrutinizing the pair of jade lions closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Startled by the call, he turned his head bewilderedly for a while before he finally saw Jiang Wang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang…” he greeted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang had told him many times not to call him “sir,” as he didn’t consider himself qualified to be called that yet, but Tang Dun was stubborn about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But usually, whatever he called him in private didn’t matter, but near the entrance of the Daoist compound, if a teacher heard it, it would be inevitably found amusing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if by chance that teacher was Xiao Tiemian…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang swore he absolutely did not want to transcribe scriptures again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you doing here?” Jiang Wang hurriedly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a simple smile, Tang Dun said, “Next year I’m going to start cultivating here, so I came to have a look.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps even he felt a bit awkward saying this and unconsciously brought back out the “I”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you’re sure you’ll be able to pass the examination next year?” Jiang Wang teased on purpose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How could I not?” Tang Dun replied hastily, “You’re the best here sir, the top scholar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I study with you, how could I possibly fail to pass?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully it was freezing cold and no one was outside at the Daoist compound entrance looking at the jade lions; otherwise, Jiang Wang really wanted to shut him up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were so many senior brothers in the Daoist compound, and as a Disciple who hadn’t even been Transcendent for a year, how could he dare say he was the best?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If word got out about this claim, it would likely cause disputes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Tang Dun was completely serious about it, not joking at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, alright, stop looking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s go back,” Jiang Wang said nonchalantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he also knew that with Tang Dun’s current strength, it was almost a sure thing he would pass the outer sect examination, and there was a chance he could enter the inner sect before the end of next year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man had a solid foundation and was willing to endure hardship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never shortcut any part of the cultivation process as Jiang Wang dictated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What would you like to eat today, sir?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll go to the market and buy it,” Tang Dun offered eagerly on the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gui Xiang Zhai, which Anan loved, was not far from the entrance of the Daoist compound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Jiang Wang bought some pastries, he said, “You don’t need to cook today, let’s wait for Anan to finish school, and then we’ll go indulge at a good restaurant.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relieved from the labor of cooking, Tang Dun actually felt a little disappointed, “But that seems like a waste of money.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang chuckled, “You’ll also become a Cultivator in the future, possessing Transcendent powers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Transcendents should rise above the material world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can’t keep fixating on money.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Transcendent Cultivators still need to eat,” Tang Dun grumbled unconvinced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stoics have their own stubbornness, but he didn’t realize that at a certain realm, Cultivators really don’t need to eat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now as a Complete Cycle Realm Cultivator, Jiang Wang didn’t have much need for food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Small Heavenly Cycle established and Path Origin flowing incessantly, it was enough to support the bodily needs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason he still ate three meals a day was mainly to satisfy his culinary desires and because it had become a habit over the years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why do you want to cultivate?” Thinking that Tang Dun would enter the Path Academy next year, Jiang Wang, as his nominal ‘master,’ asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Dun honestly replied, “I was originally a constable, just wishing to keep everyone safe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I never thought of doing anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can’t do much, just a few hand moves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after what happened to Niu’er…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I knew there was nothing I could do…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could only catch small thieves in the town, I couldn’t even ensure everyone’s safety.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said, “Once I become as powerful as Master Jiang is now, I’ll go back to the town and be a constable again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivation isn’t something lofty, it’s just a neutral term representing a cultivator’s process of exploring their own limits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some people cultivate to become stronger, some to appear saintly in front of others, to be on a higher level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some do it out of hatred, greed, wanting to take, and yet there are also people who truly have ideals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of these things are part of humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Essentially speaking, desires may not have a hierarchy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the earliest times, “ideals” were a term considered above everything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at some unknown point, now, it has fallen to being mocked by the former.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s almost synonymous with hypocrisy, an accomplice to daydreams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this isn’t an issue with ideals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just that ideals are often used as a cloak by the former.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the cloak becomes dirty, it gets thrown away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang was silent for a moment, not saying anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He merely ordered, “Go to the Path Academy dormitory and call Ling He.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t think of it earlier, but since we’re going to eat out, let’s call everyone together and have a lively time before the New Year.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay!” Tang Dun, having something to do, eagerly loped towards the Path Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang then turned around, planning to call Zhao Rucheng on the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at that moment, he felt the sky shake violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth behind him split open, revealing a huge fissure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the bottom of the crevice was a surging flow of scorching lava.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People on the street screamed in horror; those who fell couldn’t save themselves, and those who ran did so in panic, without choosing their paths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang turned around abruptly, just in time to see Tang Dun flail his arms and legs as he fell!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cloaked in a swirl of purple energy, he had already surpassed Tang Dun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With two breaths’ buffer, he thrust his sword into the rock wall and, with a reverse flick of his hand, shot out a vine-snake, catching Tang Dun before he was swallowed by the lava.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two were inside the fissure, unable to see the outside situation, but they were very clear on one fact—the fissure was spreading further!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dangling above the river of lava, Tang Dun shouted out immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was drowned by the thunderous sound of the earth splitting, but Jiang Wang could make out his lip movements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was shouting—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Anan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two practiced martial arts together under Jiang Wang’s guidance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anan insisted on being the “senior sister,” and Tang Dun went along with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this “senior sister” still needed him to escort her to and from school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, faced with sudden calamity, he asked Jiang Wang to abandon him and rescue Anan instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, this was also Jiang Wang’s decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Dun was simply trying not to make him feel guilty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was only one sudden fissure, Jiang Wang could have protected Tang Dun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with the disaster spreading throughout the city, his first thought was naturally Jiang Anan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the force in his hand, Jiang Wang flung Tang Dun out of the fissure, and then without looking back, propelled himself out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He transformed into a streak of white light, instantly crossing the entire city, and crashed into the Mingde Hall!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the secret technique he obtained from the Black Candle, the Bone Escaping Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pleading with Bone Respecting God for a temporary passage through Yin and Yang at the cost of his life span!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the fourteenth year of Yongtai of the Zhuang Dynasty, Fenglin City in Qinghe County.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth dragon turned over, and the ground cracked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless deaths and injuries, human tragedy abounded.\u003C\u002Fp>",1683,"2026-06-03T09:48:22.239Z","2026-06-03T09:48:27.649Z",1,"novelbin.me","c92857bb6ab30ad0ad118aee876fdf8169de471e0fb6be0e431df321f0b66ff9","red-heart-patrols-the-sky-chapter-134","red-heart-patrols-the-sky-chapter-377",2464,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fred-heart-patrols-the-sky-cover.jpg"]
