Chapter 775 of "Red Heart Patrols the Sky" opens with: Whether Green Cloud Pavilion is colluding with Reef Kingdom is not important, what matters is... Find out what happens!

Whether Green Cloud Pavilion is colluding with Reef Kingdom is not important, what matters is whether Lord Wei Ning wants Green Cloud Pavilion to collude with Reef Kingdom.That was the reason for Feng Ming’s grim expression, he had already grasped the severity of the situation.

“So what should I do?” he asked.

“What you should do, Lord Wei Ning has actually already given you options.

Letting Green Cloud Pavilion collude with Reef Kingdom could resolve his hatred for his direct grandson’s death at Chi Yun Mountain.

But what can he gain—or what does he want to gain—if he lets you go?”

Jiang Wang said, “Satisfy him.”

Feng Ming clenched his teeth in frustration, “For Jiao Xiong’s death, we have already shown enough sincerity…”

Jiang Wang sighed inwardly; Lord Wei Ning really should have detained Feng Ming and let Feng Yue consider this issue instead.

Compared to Feng Yue, Feng Ming simply lacked enough experience and decisiveness.

But he changed his thought; is Feng Ming worth such a huge cost?

Would doing so make Green Cloud Pavilion exercise caution due to fear of damaging important interests?

I have only considered this aspect, perhaps Lord Wei Ning is considering another level.

“Or there is another way, although I do not recommend that you choose it,” Jiang Wang continued, “You do not necessarily have to go to Lord Wei Ning.

The recently departed Lord Martial Arts is also an option.”

The spies from Reef Kingdom were caught by Lord Martial Arts’ subordinates.

If Lord Martial Arts says Green Cloud Pavilion has nothing to do with Reef Kingdom, then it is naturally unrelated.

But Jiang Wang’s non-recommendation naturally took into account Feng Yue’s own safety.

Besides, Green Cloud Pavilion will still need to continue its existence in Shunan Prefecture, and turning against Lord Wei Ning is not a rational choice.

Feng Ming was silent for a moment, “I know what to do now.”

He patted Jiang Wang on the shoulder, “I will go back and find a way to raise the funds, I must make that old monkey satisfied.

It’s trouble for Brother Yu to wait here; if there’s any new situation, inform me immediately.”

With that, he took a small three-inch white box from his bosom, “Keep this Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Box safe, I’ll leave this matter to you.”

The Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Box made by Mo Gate is very effective, but due to concerns of secrecy, many cultivators are wary of it, preventing its widespread use.

Moreover, it is easily blocked and almost entirely unusable in battle, these are the limitations that restrict its market.

But it is said that within Mo Gate there are Sound Transmission Boxes that are almost impossible to block, they simply do not circulate outside.

Jiang Wang respectfully took the small white square box, “Please rest assured, Brother Feng, I will stand firm here and keep a close watch on the marquis’ mansion.”

The Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Box was elegant in design.

It felt cold to the touch, and although he had long heard of it, this was his first time seeing its true appearance.

To achieve such a mystical effect with such a small box—Mo Gate’s craftsmanship was truly unrivaled.

“Adversity reveals true friendship; even though we have just met, I will not forget Brother Yu’s loyalty!” Feng Ming patted Jiang Wang’s shoulder again for encouragement, then turned and flew away swiftly.

Currying favor with people, he was not inept at that.

“Can you help find a partner for Green Cloud Pavilion for your brother Yu?”

Jiang Wang said such a pointless thing in his heart, heaving a sigh and ready to start his tedious surveillance work—he was almost certain that nothing would happen to Feng Yue before Feng Ming took any action.

But to perform well and infiltrate Green Cloud Pavilion, he had no choice but to engage in this futile activity.

Just then, a more direct and straightforward sentence than Jiang Wang’s inner voice came from behind—

“Can you give this to your third brother?”

Jiang Wang sighed deeply; he was really sighing all day today, it was so distressing.

He turned around and indeed saw two familiar figures, one fat and one skinny.

That Zheng Lao San was pointing at the Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission Box in Jiang Wang’s hand, looking a bit embarrassed, “It looks quite valuable.”

“Alas, spending money to avoid disaster.

Being penny-wise can lead to pound-foolishness.” Li Lao Si was beside him, like a well-meaning bystander, playing the role of a peacemaker.

Jiang Wang felt a vein on his forehead throbbing.

These two treasures had not left yet; this fate, it was truly a curse.

“Why, though?” Jiang Wang tried to keep his tone calm; he did indeed want to know why.

These two guys didn’t even have a trace of Transcendent aura, looking at most like outer sect members from the Fenglin City Daoist Institute.

He could of course feel their approach.

But he truly didn’t expect that they would dare to come over, dare to speak up, and dare to extort!

Aren’t they blind?

I entered the inner courtyard of the marquis’ residence, jovially chatting with the son of Green Cloud Pavilion’s sect guardian.

“We are reasonable people,” Zheng Lao San had no idea about Jiang Wang’s inner thoughts and said earnestly, “You compensated us for the cloak before, but you didn’t compensate us for the robe.

Our accounts should be clear, each matter is separate from the other.”

They had agreed to settle matters then and there.

These two fools were actually playing word games with him!

It was wrong for him to take advantage of the situation to make a forced sale, but a tattered cape and a torn robe, was it necessary to compensate over and over again?

The silver they had earned was surely more than a hundredfold?

Jiang Wang laughed in exasperation, “So what is it that you still want?”

“Didn’t Third Brother just say?” The fat man shook the steel knife as if casually, “That box of yours isn’t bad.

A gift from a friend?

How about gifting it to a friend?”

Li Lao Si clapped his hands happily, “Ah, this is what you call an exchange of courtesies!”

From others to you guys?

This is called an exchange of courtesies?

Jiang Wang almost applauded for them, unable to help but laugh, “What if I say no?”

“Hey!” Li Lao Si’s face turned cold, and he pointed to the side with his thumb, “See this sturdy frame, this shiny steel knife?”

“Hey!” Zheng Lao San slapped him, showing distaste, “Don’t be so bloody, okay?

I don’t chop people.”

He was obviously the more decisive of the two, acting very magnanimous, and smiled at Jiang Wang, “We never force anyone.

We’ll just hang you up, hang you from a tree, and keep you hanging until you agree.”

“It’s not too convenient to communicate here, might not look good if someone sees.” Jiang Wang pointed towards a small grove not far away, “Shall we go over there and talk?”

“Indeed, it would be difficult for you to just give away such precious things,” Zheng Lao San understood him well, “Then let’s go!”

“Let’s go, let’s go!” Li Lao Si led the way, striding ahead with spirited vigor.

Jiang Wang followed unhurriedly behind them.

Perhaps afraid that he would run away, Zheng Lao San stuck close by, eyes tightly fixed on him.

The three of them thus entered the dark, secluded forest…

In less than the time it takes for a few breaths, Jiang Wang clapped his hands and walked out from the grove, composed.

For him, this was just a minor incident, a small diversion to adjust his mood.

The “work” of surveillance was where he needed to truly demonstrate his skills at the moment.

Meanwhile, in the small grove, two figures—one fat and one thin—bound tightly with vines and hanging upside down from trees, swayed gently in the air.

The two looked at each other, then back at themselves.

At that moment.

Crack, crack.

The sound of dry twigs being crushed underfoot grew closer.
