Chapter 648 of "Red Heart Patrols the Sky" opens revealing the plot: Having reached an agreement, Miao Yu left alone.Meanwhile, Huang Jinmo stood alone on a high... Discover what happens!

Having reached an agreement, Miao Yu left alone.

Meanwhile, Huang Jinmo stood alone on a high tower for a long time.

In the end, he sighed just one sentence, “In this world, where does the moon not gather dust?”

“In this world, where does the moon not gather dust, where does the bright moon not overlook mountains and rivers?”

As long as one’s brilliance is dazzling enough, someday it will hang high in the night sky, casting light across mountains and rivers.

Upon leaving Jiujang City’s domain, Jiang Wang travelled swiftly.

He was almost fleeing, afraid he couldn’t resist turning back to tell Du Yehu the truth.

He believed Du Yehu would someday grow up and be able to crush his anger with his fists.

But not now.

Far from it now.

Just like a mighty tiger crouching on a barren hill, it must, hide its claws and endure patiently.

This trip back to Zhuang Country was also a process of reopening old wounds.

The ignorant and those burdened with everything suffer alike.

On the way back to Lingxiao Pavilion, Jiang Wang didn’t stay in “Maple Forest Ghost Domain” again, traveling uneventfully and safely reuniting with little Anan.

In the following days, while Jiang Wang continued his arduous training, he did not forget to supervise Jiang Anan.

Of course, after the daily cultivation was over, he still took Anan out to play.

During several days, the siblings visited all the renowned places in Yun Country and tasted all the famous delicacies.

Ye Qingyu occasionally accompanied them, but more often she was preparing for the Chi Yun Mountain.

Happy times are always fleeting, and especially so for Jiang Anan.

Because the time of Chi Yun Mountain’s opening was finally upon them.

This day, Jiang Wang waited in a cloud corridor.

While Jiang Anan was in her little room, battling with a new pack of character practice sheets her brother had bought.

At least during the opening of Chi Yun Mountain, she shouldn’t have much free time “to get into mischief.”

A gentle breeze caressed his face as the master of Lingxiao Pavilion arrived gracefully.

He looked around before asking, “Has that worthless disciple of Xiang Fengzhi left?”

A personage like Ye Lingxiao could, of course, see Xiang Qian’s lineage.

And indeed, Xiang Fengzhi had left him with a very deep impression.

Jiang Wang paused, then it dawned on him who Ye Lingxiao was referring to, and he couldn’t help but feel a bit displeased, “Xiang Qian is not worthless.”

“Can’t you stand the truth because he’s your friend?” Ye Lingxiao frowned, “What kind of person is Xiang Fengzhi?

As his disciple, he shows no fighting spirit, only listlessness and dejection.

If that’s not worthless, what is?”

He didn’t mean any harm; he was just naturally proud and disliked seeing Xiang Qian’s unambitious behavior.

Especially since Xiang Qian’s master, Xiang Fengzhi, was someone who had left a deep impression on him.

But sometimes, even without malice, words can still cut deeply.

Even when Xiang Qian was feeling down, he didn’t want to disgrace his master in Lingxiao Pavilion.

It seems that for the invincible Dongzhen, Xiang Fengzhi, there was considerable respect for Ye Lingxiao.

Rather than saying Xiang Qian valued Ye Lingxiao’s opinion, it would be more accurate to say he cared about Xiang Fengzhi’s face.

Jiang Wang said earnestly, “You haven’t lived his life, please don’t rashly judge him.”

“Oh?” Ye Lingxiao lifted his handsome but suddenly sharp eyes, “Are you teaching the Pavilion Master how to act?”

Jiang Wang felt he didn’t quite get along with this Pavilion Master; it seemed like every encounter was on the brink of a fight…

but regardless, he couldn’t ignore others disparaging his friend in front of him.

“Jiang Wang wouldn’t dare.

But Xiang Qian is definitely not worthless, just wait two or three years if you don’t believe it.”

“Heh,” Ye Lingxiao let out a cold laugh.

But this cold laugh suddenly took a turn and became a hearty laugh.

He laughed warmly and even patted Jiang Wang on the shoulder, “You’re not bad, kid.

Take extra care on your trip to Chi Yun Mountain.”

Jiang Wang was confused at first, but when he saw Ye Qingyu flying in, he understood.

So he smiled along and said, “I will.”

“Dad.” Ye Qingyu landed beside him, puzzled, “Didn’t you say I’d be responsible for the Chi Yun Mountain matter myself?”

“Ah, yes, that’s right.” This time Ye Lingxiao’s smile was truly from the heart, exceptionally soft, “Our Qingyu has grown up, it’s time to stand on your own.”

“Then what are you doing here?”

“I’ll see you off, see you off.”

The overbearing Ye Lingxiao would probably only show such a compliant side in front of his own daughter.

“No need!

Even if you escort me a thousand miles, a parting is inevitable.” Ye Qingyu waved her hand, “Please go back, elder.”

“Alright then, Miss Ye, please take your time.” Ye Lingxiao glanced at Jiang Wang, “Young Master Jiang, please also be sure to take care.”

Jiang Wang, even if he were slow-witted, could discern that Ye Lingxiao’s warning to ‘take care’ was likely not referring to the dangers of Chi Yun Mountain.

He responded with a sincerely respectful nod, “Please rest assured, Pavilion Master Ye.”

“Let’s go.” Ye Qingyu was very straightforward and leapt up into the air directly.

Jiang Wang hurriedly followed suit.

After the two had flown far away, the sea of clouds churned and squeezed out a strangely-shaped foreign beast.

It was called strange because it was covered in cloud patterns yet had a single horn on its head, was thirty feet in length, and had fur as soft as velvet.

Its four legs trod upon the clouds, and its lengthy tail bore a transparent water orb.

It stood before Ye Lingxiao, speaking the human tongue, “There are indeed foolproof ways to navigate Chi Yun Mountain.

Can this young man be trusted?”

“Children cannot tell lies; they only act as mirrors that reflect the adults around them.

The fact that he was able to raise Anan so well is enough to illustrate Jiang Wang’s character,”

Ye Lingxiao slowly stated, “As for his strength…

The people of Qi Country have already seen it clearly.”

“Hehehe…” The foreign beast chuckled softly, “He seems not to fear you.

Are all geniuses so high and mighty?

Daring to talk back even in the presence of a true master?”

“He’s not unafraid of me.

He has his convictions, and he knows his limitations.

For someone his age to understand the word ‘limitations’, his life has not been easy.”

“It sounds like you appreciate him a lot?” The foreign beast pondered.

Ye Lingxiao smiled, a charming and captivating smile, but unfortunately, only the foreign beast was present to witness it, which didn’t particularly appreciate it.

“The lineage of Cloud Top Fairy Palace is unique, and Yunzuan’s Divine Power is a rare treasure of the world.

The primary condition for obtaining the Cloud Seal Script divine power is to not kill anyone.

Therefore, although I’ve arranged many trials for Qingyu, she has never truly faced life or death.

In a real confrontation, she is bound to suffer.

Having Jiang Wang as a teammate, someone who has both strength and brains, determination and moderation, greatly increases the chances of success in this endeavor.”

“Cloud Top Fairy Palace values a ‘Yuan Law’ that comes without intention.

Remember the four-character prophecy?

It’s called ‘an unintentional bond’.

The more one aims for the legacy, the less chance there is.” The foreign beast knew that he wasn’t speaking only of Yunzuan and couldn’t help muttering, “You shouldn’t intervene too much.”

Ye Lingxiao smiled proudly, “How could I not know?

Rest assured, with Qingyu following me, and being both attractive and talented, she is certainly capable of obtaining Cloud Seal Script.

And she will surely be able to…”

“Cloud Seal Script…” The foreign beast rumbled, “This divine power hasn’t surfaced in hundreds of years, truly nostalgic.”

“Indeed,” Ye Lingxiao also sighed, “I didn’t know the rules back then; otherwise, I would have secured it long ago, rather than waiting until Qingyu grew up.”

The foreign beast unsympathetically exposed the truth, “If it weren’t for me back then, you would have been…”

“If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have a head, ok?

A’Chou!” Ye Lingxiao retorted disdainfully.

“You heartless wretch, Ye Xiaohua!” The foreign beast, named A’Chou, erupted in anger, “My head was almost gone because I was trying to save you!

You couldn’t handle it yourself and always boasted, calling others to join you, and they beat you black and blue!

If it weren’t for me…”

“I couldn’t handle it?” Ye Lingxiao pounced over, grabbing A’Chou’s horn, and switched the subject like a scoundrel, shouting in anger, “If I don’t teach you a lesson today, you won’t understand how formidable I, Ye, am!”

A’Chou, called distressingly ugly, could not contain its anger, swishing its long tail, causing waves to ripple through the sea of clouds, “Ye Xiaohua, you try touching me!”

Before the words were finished, it received a punch.

“Ouch!”

Ye Lingxiao directly flung A’Chou far away, rolled up his sleeves, and leaped into the sea of clouds.

The mist rolled and roiled, obscuring the actual situation.

Only A’Chou’s voice could be continuously heard, roaring non-stop—

“I’m going to fight you to the death!”

“Ow!

That hurts!”

“Let go, you’re tearing off my fur!”

“If you’re so capable, don’t rely on your higher realm!”

Finally, it was Ye Lingxiao’s boisterous laughter that sounded, “I’m not capable!

So what!”

However, used here, it carries a different meaning.
