Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

The time goes back to the moment when Jiang Wang and Zhao Ru Cheng parted ways.

Jiang Wang had walked the road to Mingde Hall countless times. He knew all the food along the way, good and bad.

This is Maple City, where he has lived and practiced for years. Walking in this city gives him a sense of calm and peace that he cannot find elsewhere.

Because he was too relaxed, he didn't dodge the person coming towards him in time.

No, maybe he had tried his best to dodge, but he was still hit.

The collision this time was very strange because they didn't push each other away with normal impact force, and then fall or stay still due to different personal foundations.

Instead, they stuck together.

In other words, the collision this time seemed to produce suction, not repulsion.

This was too strange!

He had a strong intuition that this guy was extremely dangerous, and he was no match for him.

The power gap was so great that if he tried to escape and warn others with his identity as a disciple of the Daoist Academy in Maple City, the other party could kill him and leave calmly.

"It looks like that guy's junior brother..." The black-robed man whispered in Jiang Wang's ear, "Can I stay at your place for a few days?"

Jiang Wang stiffly nodded.

"Good." The black-robed man stepped back, allowing Jiang Wang to see his face under the hood. The face was rough and brutal, with a natural ferocity. "You are a smart person, and you should know not to do foolish things."

It was then that Jiang Wang noticed that the black robe worn by this guy was similar to the one worn by the chubby guy in Sanshan City. At the same time, he was bald.

Without much time to think, the bald man's gaze was very dangerous.

First of all, Jiang Wang was sure that he couldn't bring this dangerous guy home. Neither Zhao Ru Cheng nor Ling He could help him and would only be implicated. Not to mention that there was An An at home.

"But... I live in the dormitory of the Daoist Academy." Jiang Wang swallowed his saliva and didn't hide his fear, "I am an inner disciple."

"Uh, you have opened your meridians, but you haven't laid the foundation yet. To be honest, this is a good start for our cooperation." The bald man seemed satisfied, turned around, and put his arm around Jiang Wang's shoulder, walking alongside him. "But I believe you have a way, don't you?"

On the street, people came and went, but no one noticed anything unusual about them.

Or, Jiang Wang had to try harder to show no signs of abnormality, in order not to be killed instantly.

Jiang Wang's mind was racing.

First of all, who was the "guy's junior brother" in the bald man's mouth?

Combined with the black robe on the bald man's body, which was the same style as the one worn by the chubby guy in Sanshan City.

Jiang Wang had a bold guess- could it be Zhu Wei Wo?

Then the identity of this bald man was about to be revealed- he was Xiong Wen, a demon who swallows hearts!

During this period, Zhu Wei Wo had been chasing and killing Xiong Wen. As a result, he missed the Three Cities Debate. Unexpectedly, Xiong Wen was bold enough to sneak into Maple City and play a game of cat and mouse.

This was a cultivator in the Soaring Dragon Realm, who had opened the door to heaven and earth.Even with his Four Spirit Refining Body Art and Purple Qi Coming from the East Sword Technique, it was impossible for Jiang Wang to defeat this person by jumping three levels.

"There should be a way, but I need to think about it... Can I think about it?" Jiang Wang wasn't the kind of genius who could calculate everything in one step, so he tried to buy some time.

"You can. But not for too long. Because I'm not very patient." The bald man was very tolerant and even patted Jiang Wang's shoulder.

The two of them walked forward with their arms around each other, like close friends.

Jiang Wang continued to analyze.

He had noticed the conflict that was hidden behind the Three Cities Conference the day before. He didn't delve into things that didn't concern him, but Zhao Rucheng had mentioned that it was Wei Quji seeking revenge for the tragedy in Xiaolin Town.

At this moment, the only thing that could be confirmed was that the two cities must be heavily guarded, but this bald man had not leaked any information, indicating that he was skilled at hiding his tracks.

So what was the reason for him to appear on the street and randomly find someone to look for a new hiding place?

The only explanation was that his previous hiding place had been exposed. Or, perhaps, Zhu Weiwo had already discovered that he had hidden in Fenglin City!

The opportunity might lie here...

But obviously, if this bald man was Xiong Wen, he would also have noticed this.

So he absolutely could not leave anything that would remind Zhu Weiwo. Playing tricks under the nose of a Soaring Dragon Realm cultivator was undoubtedly seeking death.

Jiang Wang continued to think about where to go next.

He dared not go in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion or the Taoist Academy. There was no doubt that both places were safe havens. But this bald man was not a fool.

What should he do?

He definitely could not estimate the strength of a Soaring Dragon Realm cultivator with his own strength. He had already seen Lin Zhengren's combat power at the Three Cities Conference, and Xiong Wen was definitely stronger.

One idea after another appeared and was rejected.

It was a mess, and he almost gave up, but he couldn't give up.

He suddenly thought of the fact that he didn't go to pick up An An today. Would she go home by herself? Would she be afraid?

Then he thought of the little girl named Qingzhi and the unfathomable old man surnamed Gui.

Maybe...

He quickly abandoned these thoughts. He could not bring danger to Jiang An'an.

But thinking of An'an gave him strength.

"I have a friend..." Jiang Wang said with difficulty, "But I can't take you directly to where he lives now. I can't put him in danger."

The bald man looked interested. "And then?"

"He has a courtyard in his clan's territory that hasn't been used for a long time. It's very quiet and no one will disturb us." Jiang Wang added cautiously, "But the problem is, his clan is quite strong. If we're not careful, we might have some trouble."

"Oh? How strong are they?" There was a hint of undisguised contempt in the bald man's voice. The local clans in Fenglin City were indeed not worth his attention.

"It's one of the three major clans in the area, the Fang family. They might have some superhuman power. I'm not sure about the specifics."The friend Jiang Wang mentioned was naturally Fang Pengju. Throughout the entire Maple Forest City, within Jiang Wang's known range, the only ones who could possibly cause trouble for the Heart-Devouring Demon were the three major clans, aside from the Lord's Mansion and the Daoist Academy.

Among them, he had no grudges with the Zhang and Wang families, but Fang Pengju had a deep-seated hatred for him, and Fang Heling had always been entangling him. Last time, he even had a falling out with Fang Zehou...

The most important thing was that he was only familiar with the Fang family among the three major clans, and had only been to the Fang family's ancestral land.

In the small courtyard of the Fang family's ancestral land that he described, Fang Pengju had drunk and talked with him, and they had also talked late into the night.

Now, it all depended on whether the bald man agreed with this choice.

Concerned about his own safety, the bald man pondered for a moment before saying, "Lead the way."

Jiang Wang breathed a sigh of relief.

The first hurdle was passed!
