Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

On the cave wall, there was a scattered white light, as if entering the body of a certain giant beast's skeleton.

After walking through the long corridor, a whole new world appeared inside.

In the center of the cave, a scarlet carpet was laid out, with a bone messenger wearing a mask and the charming Myoyu in a red dress standing on both sides.

Behind them were several black-clothed people, seemingly divided into two groups.

The scarlet carpet extended all the way to the end.

At the end, bones were used as steps, flesh as a platform, and on the high platform, there was a bone throne with a fierce bone spike.

On the throne, there was a skeleton. Fragile and withered, it seemed as if it would fall apart with a gust of wind.

But the voice actually came from the hollow mouth of the skeleton: "Who can tell me where the Ming candle has gone?"

A black-robed elder fell to the ground with a thud: "I'm useless!"

The voice remained hollow, as if there was no emotion: "Then who can tell me who is responsible for the heavy losses this time?"

The black-robed elder glanced at the bone messenger out of the corner of his eye, but saw that he remained motionless, showing no intention of helping him speak. So he had to bow his head and knock it hard on the ground: "I...I'm sorry."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly raised his head, horrified: "Elder, please..."

As if a cold wind had blown by.

The black robe fell to the ground, leaving only a pile of bone powder.

He died like this.

"Indeed, he deserved to die." The skeleton continued, "The Bone Dao has been passed down with difficulty until now, and many of the techniques are incomplete. The Ming candle is a treasure of our sect, with a hidden inheritance, it can help me complete the lost techniques. But you are so useless, you missed it for no reason!"

At this time, the bone messenger spoke up: "I remember, the Holy Maiden had a backup plan."

Myoyu smiled charmingly, "There's only a backup plan if there's a first move. But it's been several days now. I haven't heard from my people, and I don't know if they were killed by Wei Quji or eaten by some stray cat or dog."

The bone messenger laughed, "What first move? I don't know."

"Okay." The skeleton on the bone throne said, "Since Wei Quji used the Ming candle as bait, it means he already knows that our Bone Dao has stepped on his face. But he doesn't know what the Ming candle means to us. After killing enough people, he won't care about the Ming candle anymore. I want you to dig three feet deep and find out who has the Ming candle."

"Yes." Everyone bowed their heads.

"Also, I will have a big move in the Cloud Country soon. You should act low-key." After the Elder finished speaking, the skeleton instantly fell apart, and the bones scattered on the throne.

Myoyu waved her hand, and everyone in the cave dispersed, leaving only the bone messenger and her.

The bone messenger snorted first, "The third elder used his body as a lure to condense the shadow of the Ghost Gate. Is he going to show off in the Cloud Country?"

"Who knows?" Myoyu frowned slightly, "The Elder seems to be not very interested in finding the Daozi."

"Hahaha." The bone messenger left with his hands behind his back, "If the Daozi is not present, he will act as the Holy Lord. If the Daozi appears, he will really just be the Elder. What do you think he will choose?"Every time Jiang Wang came to the Academy, he was a little absent-minded.

There was no other reason, he had not yet established his foundation. No matter how eloquently the instructors spoke, he could only practice in his mind. He was thirsty for a deeper understanding but he simply couldn't grasp it.

Compared to other students, Jiang Wang was more willing to attend the classics class and listen to the old masters explain the principles of the great Dao and the classics of the sage. It made him happy.

But he couldn't afford to miss these classes at the Academy, especially when it was Xiao Tiemian's class.

No one remembered Xiao Tiemian's real name, although he was only at the Perfection Realm, his control of various basic Dao arts was truly profound and skilled.

Before the class started, Jiang Wang sat on the cushion and was a little absent-minded.

He was still recalling last night's challenge in the blessed land, but he couldn't analyze any more details.

Because at the beginning of the battle, he didn't even have time to draw his sword and was killed by an arrow.

He fell from the Green Jade Altar to the 25th ranked Guangtian Altar, and his monthly production of merit points decreased by another 100, leaving him with only 1650 points. In addition to the remaining 190 points from the previous deduction of the Four Spirits Refining Body Technique, he had a total of 1840 merit points.

Outside the Tai Xu Illusory Realm, he had 400 merit points left on the Dao Merit List. These were all Jiang Wang's assets related to his cultivation.

Although Zhao Rucheng didn't know how to use the Academy's Open Meridian Pill to open his meridians, he still exchanged for one, probably to hide something, he didn't want to say more, and Jiang Wang didn't ask.

According to this kid's bragging, he would use the super invincible and perfect Open Meridian Pill to open his meridians, but unfortunately, he only had one and couldn't give it to Jiang An'an.

Jiang Wang asked him how many merit points it would take to exchange for this "super invincible and perfect" Open Meridian Pill, but Zhao Rucheng didn't give a specific number, just patted his shoulder and told him to work hard.

In any case, taking care of his sister was a heavy responsibility and a long way to go.

Lost in thought, Xiao Tiemian had already walked up to the podium.

Jiang Wang quickly focused his mind and made a diligent appearance of listening carefully.

"Some people, don't think that they have a little achievement, and their tails will rise to the sky. The road of cultivation is long, young people, you should have a long-term vision." Xiao Tiemian coughed, "Okay, let's talk about the specific application of Stone Skin Art in battle..."

Jiang Wang's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't understand why he was being targeted again. But he didn't dare to show it on his face, instead becoming even more serious.

After class, as soon as Xiao Tiemian left, Huang Azhan came over from the corner.

"That dead man's face! He's targeting you like that, can you bear it? Let's go smash his window tonight, how about it, are you in or not?"

Seeing Huang Azhan, Jiang Wang immediately understood why he was being targeted. This was probably the case of the city gate being on fire and the fish in the moat being affected.

He was close to Huang Azhan on weekdays, and Xiao Tiemian remembered him too.

"If you want to go, go by yourself." Jiang Wang certainly wouldn't accompany him in doing something stupid.

"I'm telling you, this time I have a well-planned strategy..."

"Stop!" Jiang Wang stopped his long speech and changed the subject, "We made an appointment to have dinner with Senior Brother Li Jianqiu, do you want to come?""Hmph, you just don't believe me. I'm telling you, last time I was drunk, otherwise with him, Xiao..." Huang Azhan saw Jiang Wang turning around and leaving, and hurriedly caught up, "I'll go!"

Zhao Rucheng casually said, "Let's split the bill for the meal."

Huang Azhan pretended not to hear and hugged Ling He's shoulders, starting to talk about his counterattack plan.

Ling He had a generous personality, and although he definitely wouldn't join in with Huang Azhan's bad behavior, he wouldn't intentionally despise him either.

Zhao Gongzi really didn't have much of a way to deal with his senior brother from the previous year. He had thick skin and was impenetrable.

The organizer of this dinner was Li Jianqiu, who invited Jiang Wang and informed him that he could bring some friends.

The location was at Su Huai Zhai, a restaurant with a higher standard than Wang Yue Lou, but mainly serving vegetarian food. Jiang Wang and his gang, who liked to eat meat and drink, naturally didn't come often.

When they entered the private room, only Li Jianqiu was sitting alone.

Everyone was already familiar with each other, so there wasn't much politeness and they started to enjoy the food directly.

Du Yehu disliked vegetarian food the most, especially those so-called godly dishes made with vegetables that tasted like roasted chicken or beef. His reason was that it took so much effort, why not just go eat roasted chicken or beef directly? Zhao Rucheng summed it up with the word "style," but arguing with him was useless.

Fortunately, Du Yehu wasn't present now, and the others didn't have his problem.

During the meal, Huang Azhan told an interesting story.

It was said that after Lin Zhengren returned to Wangjiang City, he was very pleased with himself and publicly boasted at the Dust-Washing Banquet that he was invincible in the Three-City Debate, and that there was no one in San Mountain City or Fenglin City. Shortly after Zhu Weiwo returned to the Daoist Temple, he heard about this and left with his gun, rowing his boat straight down the Green Willow River and following the Qing River to Wangjiang City.

They should have already fought by now.

Jiang Wang doubted, "From Lin Zhengren's performance in the Three-City Debate, he doesn't seem like that kind of person, he shouldn't have said those things, right?"

But Li Jianqiu laughed heartily, "Senior Brother Zhu just found an excuse to beat him up, whether he said it or not doesn't matter! Since it has spread, just treat it as if he said it."

He had more contact with Zhu Weiwo and naturally knew more about him.

Although Jiang Wang only met him once, he also felt that what Li Jianqiu said was in line with Zhu Weiwo's character.

"Domineering!"

"Amazing!"

"Great Senior Brother is mighty!"

"Okay, he's not even here, even if you flatter him to death, he can't hear it." Li Jianqiu waved his hand and went straight to the point, "There has been a lot of beast disaster in San Mountain City recently. Yesterday, their city lord launched a bounty, inviting experts to help them eliminate the beasts. This is the largest operation in San Mountain City in recent years. I'm planning to organize a team to go over there. How about it, would you like to come with me?"
