Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-five: I see the world of genius_1 Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rumble!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The natural disaster was still ongoing, and the mist was becoming denser.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Serpent Bone-faced figure gripped the blade of the Serpent’s Tongue Sword tighter and tighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Wei Yan, who had slain two great White Bone-faced adversaries, she finally turned around, picked up the cadaver of the Canine Bone-faced one, and flew away into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had to admit that facing Wei Yan, who had only just entered the Ascending Dragon Realm, she felt cowardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More accurately, she was shocked by the madness of these few individuals from the Fengling City Guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cowardice is a word that should never have existed in her world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She always regarded human life as insignificant, caring little for the lives of her opponents, let alone her own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few who faced death as if returning home today were not the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This opponent before her, of whom she had not the slightest confidence and who was like a killing god, was also not the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The true cause of her cowardice was the look in the Canine Bone’s eyes she had seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She found herself, for the first time in her life, feeling fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She actually feared death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She even started to feel reluctant to leave this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yan watched the Serpent Bone-faced escapee, with no pursuit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The battle was over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the dying Zhao Lang and the Serpent Bone-faced, he chose to kill the opponent without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the raging Serpent Bone-faced and the barely alive Zhao Lang, he unhesitatingly entered the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Fang Dahuzi and the Mouse Bone-faced, who were locked in an embrace, he stirred the blade’s light without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not hesitate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every step he took was the best, most appropriate, and most accurate choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather, it was precisely because they knew he could make such choices that both Zhao Lang and Fang Dahuzi pinned their hopes on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a superb collaboration!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the name of their years of military camaraderie and tacit understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them fought their own battles, yet stood together in death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cost was Zhao Lang’s death, Fang Dahuzi’s death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the evil canine spirits had dispersed with their master, and the ghostly hounds had vanished as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The earth fissure was still widening, and the mist was still spreading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of this happened suddenly in the City Guard camp and ended with a fierce conclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disaster in the Maple Forest City Region was far from over, but the people in Fengling City Guards who fought for Fenglin City were already dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yan walked over to Zhao Lang, hoisting up his half-body that had lost a leg, whose heart had been pierced, and whose Path Origin had already depleted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a clumsy hand enveloped in Wood Force, he covered Zhao Lang’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He specialized in long swords and Metallic Dao Technique, and was truly not skilled in healing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, he was well aware—it was beyond help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sometimes, the terror of reason lies just in this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because you know the outcome so clearly, your futile efforts can’t even comfort yourself one bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhoutian Realm slaying Ascending Dragon Realm, this could be considered as fighting beyond my station, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the very talented can accomplish such a thing,” Zhao Lang gasped with difficulty and said, “So this is the world of a genius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have seen it…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You lied to me,” Wei Yan’s face was covered in blood, and his expression was indiscernible, but he said, “You told me my choice was the right one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You said you would choose the same.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He repeated, “You lied to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the three White Bone-faced appeared, nobody paid attention to this minor Tongtian realm cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Lang was already leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he chose to come back, to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Choosing to fight was almost the same as choosing death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But still, he made that choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone knows what the best choice is, but not everyone can do it, Wei Yan,” Zhao Lang said with a smile, looking weakly at Wei Yan, “You are the real genius, your life is more important than mine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Survive and take revenge for Fenglin City.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It turned out, his judgment on the outcome for Fenglin City was the same as Wei Yan’s, but he still supported Fang Dahuzi’s foolish choice earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe, that couldn’t be called “foolish,” could it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yan grasped his hand, his lips quivered a few times, probably wanting to say something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Zhao Lang had already closed his eyes, never to hear it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was unknown how much time passed when the sound of the fissure splitting broke the silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yan picked up Zhao Lang’s corpse and cast it into the surging magma below the fissure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the boiling magma engulf him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People say to rest in peace one must be buried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps one may find peace, or perhaps not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Yan inverted Quick Snow, turned around, and walked towards Fenglin City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the foot of the western mountains, Jiang Wang held Jiang Anan’s hand with one hand and Song Qingzhi’s with the other, looking back at Maple Forest City with a heart full of sadness and fury, both angry and pained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where was Dong Ah?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As early as that incident on Ox Head Mountain, he had reported the affairs of Bone Tao to Dong Ah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was there still not the slightest preparation for today’s disaster on the part of Maple Forest City?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Ah said, “I have my own arrangements for this matter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Ah said, “I will personally communicate with Wei Qu Ji.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Ah said, “I will get in touch with Zhuang Ting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where were the arrangements?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where was the backup plan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Ah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where were you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When escaping Maple Forest City, he had been waiting for the backup plan Dong Ah had mentioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reporting twice, he had been convinced that Dong Ah was taking this matter seriously,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>but…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>there was no response!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people of the city were dying out, and Zhuang Ting still had no reaction!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where was Dong Ah?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most painful thing was not the relentlessness of the disaster, but that all this could have been avoided!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What on earth was Dong Ah doing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he sensed a powerful surge of Water Force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang didn’t have time to contain his emotions; he pulled the two girls behind him, readying a flame in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mass of water vapor fell from the sky, and before Jiang Wang, it took shape into a figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a sleazy-looking, hunchbacked old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Gui?” Jiang Wang’s expression relaxed, knowing he had come to receive Song Qingzhi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandpa Gui!” Song Qingzhi hurried over, somewhat panicked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What happened to Maple Forest City?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was so scary!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Gui was still hunched, the anxiety on his face finally dissipating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He patted Qingzhi’s forehead and said to Jiang Wang, “I was a step late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I couldn’t find the princess’s trace in Ming De Hall and was frantic with worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I tracked her all the way here, not expecting that you, young friend, had saved her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On behalf of Qing River Water Palace, I cannot thank you enough!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qing River Water Palace?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So this girl with the tiny braids was the daughter of the lord of Qing River!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang grew excited and immediately said, “Old Gui, could you please contact the lord right away?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maple Forest City is in dire need of his help!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Gui, looking at Jiang Wang’s hopeful eyes, was silent for a long moment, then slowly shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Hengjiang was indeed very strong, but he was old and weak, and could not withstand many battles anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than that, he knew clearly that Song Hengjiang would not fight to the death for Zhuang Ting again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Qing River Water Palace can offer you and your sister protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as for Maple Forest City…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I am powerless to help,” Old Gui said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Gui, Zhuang Country and the Water Race have had an alliance for hundreds of years,” Jiang Wang urgently said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Human Race and the Water Race are like one family!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young friend, there are things you do not know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuang Ting does not deserve the blood shed by my Qing River Water Palace,” Old Gui stated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not to mention, Zhuang Ting knew the princess was in Maple Forest City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before such a catastrophic change, they did not inform us at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They almost caused the princess to encounter disaster!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this what you call being as close as a family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang wanted to say that perhaps Zhuang Ting also did not know about today’s calamity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he had personally reported to Dong Ah, and even he could not deceive himself with such words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhuang Ting is Zhuang Ting, Maple Forest City is Maple Forest City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please, in consideration of…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s not that I do not want to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Water Palace has its own difficulties,” Old Gui interrupted him, sincerely saying, “Young friend, come with me back to Qing River.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll secure a position for you in the Water Palace, which surely won’t be worse than what you have on land.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…There’s no need.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang understood that seeking help from Qing River Water Palace was out of the question and turned away, pulling Jiang Anan with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You take Qingzhi back,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where are you going, young friend?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Wang didn’t turn back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If the Water Race won’t help the Human Race, then the Human Race shall always aid its own.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Gui didn’t say anything, his eyes filled with complexity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Anan!” Song Qingzhi called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Anan turned around, Qingzhi ran up to her and took off her own amulet to hang it around Anan’s neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This will protect you!” she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The amulet was shaped like a water drop with luminous radiance swirling around it, clearly extraordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Old Gui showed no intention of stopping her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Anan looked up at Jiang Wang, and seeing that her brother did not object, she lowered her head to let Song Qingzhi put the amulet on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Goodbye, Qingzhi!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Goodbye, Anan!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both little girls had tears in their eyes as they parted ways then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One headed west, following the Qi Chang Mountain Range towards Qing River.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other went south, sticking to the outskirts of the Maple Forest City Region, towards San Shan City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was anyone who could save Maple Forest City, Jiang Wang could only think of Dou Yuemei, who possessed the Mountain Divine Power.\u003C\u002Fp>",1790,"2026-06-03T09:48:22.239Z","2026-06-03T09:48:27.649Z",1,"novelbin.me","fdc81ea35e8b9bb587c6bc153061a18a104bf8ebfb07c71ec3bb58665f5dac33","red-heart-patrols-the-sky-chapter-382","red-heart-patrols-the-sky-chapter-381",2464,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fred-heart-patrols-the-sky-cover.jpg"]
