Here is Chapter 819 of "Red Heart Patrols the Sky": Having withdrawn from the Taixu Illusion Realm, these past few days, Jiang Wang had climbed... Don’t miss it!

Having withdrawn from the Taixu Illusion Realm, these past few days, Jiang Wang had climbed to the 71st rank in the Inner Mansion Realm of the Discussion Platform, and he could see that soon he would be able to cross swords with Zuo Guangshu in a matching battle on the Discussion Platform once again.With his current Spirit and Soul Power, exploring the Inner Mansion was much quicker.

He had already explored more than three hundred of the Second Inner Mansions, during which he had discovered two secret caches, neither to his liking, and Jiang Wang had easily passed them by.

Another method to quickly improve one’s strength was the Instantaneous Dao Arts imprinted in the Second Inner Mansion.

Each Inner Mansion had only one chance to imprint an Instantaneous Dao Art.

Most strong individuals would not choose Dao Arts that too many others had mastered.

In such choices, “rare” was better than “powerful”.

Because no matter how strong a Dao Art was, if it was studied too much, there was a possibility it could be unraveled.

Earlier, when Jiang Wang was condensing the Small and Large Zhoutian at the Tongtian Palace, he had respectively imprinted the Flame Flower and Five Qi Binding Tiger, one gifted by Dong Ah and the other by Zhongxuan Sheng.

Back then he didn’t have much in the way of resources, and when he came across fine Dao Arts, he couldn’t afford to be picky.

But later on, Jiang Wang grew rapidly, becoming steadily and swiftly more powerful, and he gradually earned the right to be choosy.

In the cultivation world, there’s a saying, “To open a new mansion is like opening another palace.”

Aside from adding a new source of dynamic power to the human body, each time a new Inner Mansion is opened, one can also imprint another Instantaneous Dao Art.

When Jiang Wang was in the First Inner Mansion, he carefully chose the Decayed Wood Decision—a Dao Art with a very specific target, which needs no further explanation.

Naturally, the choice for the Second Inner Mansion’s Dao Art was of great importance.

Some Dao Arts can be studied thoroughly to reduce the activation time as much as possible, but even if it is close to within one breath, it is still not as fast as instantaneous.

In a high expert’s duel, life and death often hang in a split second.

But valuable and rare Dao Arts are hard to come by.

Apart from diligent cultivation, during this time, Jiang Wang had also repeatedly discussed with Zhongxuan Sheng methods for rescuing Zhu Bijing, making many plans and preparations.

But without having observed the Near Sea Archipelago in person, he could not make a final decision.

Early this morning, Zhongxuan Sheng cheerfully called outside Jiang Wang’s door, “Wang, brother!

Someone is looking for you!”

Jiang Wang paused his exploration of the Inner Mansion and asked as he walked out, “Who is it?”

Zhongxuan Sheng’s voice was teasing, “A woman!”

Jiang Wang pushed the door open and saw three people standing side by side outside.

The plump Zhongxuan Sheng, Shisi clad in black armor…

and Lin Youxie, with a green scarf on her head.

Jiang Wang immediately wanted to close the door; seeing this Green Badge made his head hurt now.

“Lord Jiang!” She actually greeted him quite enthusiastically first.

“Tsk tsk tsk,” Zhongxuan Sheng teased on the side with a peculiar tone, “I would not have guessed, young Jiang, that you lead such a colorful life.

Your romantic debts have even followed you home!

When did you meet her?”

Jiang Wang helplessly glanced at Shisi, as if to say—aren’t you going to do something?

Unfortunately, Shisi looked away without a glance, and the expression on her face was hidden by her black helmet.

But Lin Youxie smiled and glanced at Zhongxuan Sheng, her expression quite serene, “Young Master Zhongxuan, we have a pure professional relationship.”

Jiang Wang, worried that Zhongxuan Sheng would speak carelessly and unnecessarily cause trouble, since Zheng Shangming had reminded him that Lin Youxie was not without influence and not to be trifled with, quickly spoke up, “Catcher Lin!

What brings you here so early to find me?”

“My lord,” Lin Youxie bowed slightly, “Have you forgotten about your mission?”

She also reminded him with a word, “Gold Needle Sect.”

Jiang Wang felt a bad premonition, “My office knows what it’s doing, and we will set out soon…

What does this have to do with Catcher Lin?”

“How can it not?” Lin Youxie smiled brightly, her smile revealing her white teeth, “This case is precisely the responsibility of both Officer Lin and Lord Jiang!”

“…How come this office is unaware of this?”

Lin Youxie’s smile was brimming as she shook out a document, “This is an official document from the Imperial City Inspection Mansion, bearing the seal of the Beiyar Commander.

Lord Jiang, you may wish to check it.”

“Let me see!” Zhongxuan Sheng unexpectedly stretched out his chubby hand from the side.

Of course, he was not as clueless as Jiang Wang feared.

In fact, as soon as Lin Youxie arrived, he had someone check on it.

He was poking fun on the side, merely not wanting this woman to interfere with Jiang Wang’s impending journey to the Near Sea Archipelago.

Lin Youxie did not dodge either, letting him take the official document away, only chuckling, “Just a reminder to Young Master Chongxuan, destroying official documents is a serious crime.

Besides, I could have as many copies of this document as I want.”

“Rest assured, Catcher Lin, this young master’s hands have always been very steady!” Zhongxuan Sheng, having had his thoughts exposed, wasn’t embarrassed but even had a smile on his face.

He made a show of examining it before passing it to Jiang Wang, “It does seem to be authentic indeed.”

Of course it was authentic.

With the relationship and background that made Zheng Shangming wary of Lin Youxie, obtaining such an official document was not difficult at all.

However, as the person incessantly entangled, Jiang Wang couldn’t help feeling helpless.

“…I can handle it myself,” he said.

“With your extraordinary talent, of course you can!

Even Yama of Hell Has No Door couldn’t escape your eyes, let alone a mere traitor of the Gold Needle Sect?” Lin Youxie asserted confidently, “This subordinate is merely following and learning!”

…Jiang Wang truly regretted taking credit for the pursuit of Yama from Hell Has No Door.

To have involved both King of Qin Guang and King of Chu Jiang, why bother?

Now, Lin Youxie had found a handle to use against him, constantly bringing it up.

“This is the first Green Badge mission I face alone, may I handle it by myself?” Jiang Wang’s tone was already softening.

He really didn’t want to deal with a catcher as shrewd as Lin Youxie, for any secret of his, unearthed at random, would not please him.

But Lin Youxie just smiled, completely ignoring the suggestion, “This subordinate has been waiting for several days, and seeing no movement from you, sir, came to inquire.

Of course, you have your own plans, sir, and this subordinate can depart at any time, certainly will follow and learn well.”

Talking was no use…

Jiang Wang felt a tremendous headache.

He never quite understood how he had come to be targeted by Lin Youxie.

“Ahem!” Chongxuan Sheng cleared his throat, “Brother Jiang Wang, in handling cases, one inevitably has to visit places with complex information.

Like the Red Sleeve Attraction, Tianxiang Brothel and such, you may need to go around and gather intelligence!

Sometimes it might be more convenient to go alone.”

He was giving Jiang Wang a suggestion, for Jiang Wang to take advantage of places like brothels to deter Lin Youxie.

“No worries.” Lin Youxie had already cheerfully taken over the conversation before Jiang Wang could speak.

“This subordinate has been handling cases for many years, where haven’t I been?

What haven’t I seen?

Officer Jiang, feel free to inquire and gather intelligence.”

She deliberately emphasized the words “inquire and gather intelligence.”

“This subordinate will be content to learn by your side!”

This female Green Badge catcher was thoroughly intractable, and it seemed she might even be much more experienced and knowledgeable than Jiang Wang.

Jiang Wang knew there was no avoiding it and couldn’t help but sigh, “You’re determined to accompany me?”

“It is my duty, and this subordinate shall not shirk from it!” Lin Youxie said meaningfully.

Jiang Wang looked at her firmly for a moment and made a decision, “Fine!

There’s no day like today; we depart immediately!”

After all, everything that needed discussing had been discussed, and all preparations were made; there was no need to wait in Linzi any longer.

Lin Youxie just smiled, showing no fear, “At your command!”

Chongxuan Sheng looked at Shisi, finding Shisi was looking at him, too.

Ultimately, he said nothing more.

He believed in Jiang Wang’s decision, just as Jiang Wang trusted him with the rest unconditionally.

On the last day of February, Daqi’s Fourth Grade Green Badge, Jiang Wang, set out for the Near Sea Archipelago to handle the Gold Needle Sect case.

His companion, Grade-5 Green Badge catcher Lin Youxie.
