Chapter 305: A Friend Arrives | Red Heart Survey [Translation]
Red Heart Survey [Translation] - Updated on April 10, 2025
Chang Xiangsi swiftly unsheathed, and the Dragon Bone Mask’s tall body crashed to the ground.
Hearing the name he shouted before death, Jiang Wang said nothing, turning his sword towards the Rabbit Mask.
Both were in the Tenglong realm, and even though he had been fighting for a long time and was almost exhausted, he was still confident in killing her.
But with the Dragon Mask dead, the red-eyed Rabbit Mask had already leaped away without hesitation, not giving Jiang Wang the chance to entangle her.
An Inner Mansion realm expert had died in Qingyang Town!
The Jia City garrison soldiers who witnessed all this were shocked and speechless.
At this moment, in Qingyang Town, Zhu Biqiong was injured, and Xiang Qian was seriously wounded. Jiang Wang first broke the Yin-Yang Wandering Kill Array, then fought the Dragon Bone Mask, fighting hard for a long time. It could be said that the entire Qingyang Town was exhausted.
However, they did not dare to make any rash moves.
Just because… Jiang Wang was still standing.
All their fighting will was crushed by this young man.
Jiang Wang leaped to Xiang Qian’s side, briefly checked his injuries, and helped him up.
Xiang Qian had made great contributions in this battle. If it hadn’t been for his powerful combat power, Jiang Wang might have opened the Inner Mansion early and chosen to extract a divine power.
Even if the Dragon Mask was stronger, an interval to open the Inner Mansion and extract a divine power. He was confident that he could win on his own.
But in that case, his path would be cut off.
“Are you okay?” Jiang Wang asked.
Xiang Qian struggled to roll his eyes, but did not speak.
After this battle, their relationship was different.
He sent someone to invite the only extraordinary doctor in the town. In the previous battle, Jiang Wang was reluctant to ask the old man to take action. Of course, he was not from a medical sect like Dongwang Valley. His combat power was really lacking, and he was better at treating illnesses and saving people.
After the old doctor began to treat Xiang Qian and Zhu Biqiong’s injuries, Jiang Wang had time to clean up the battlefield.
First, he ordered the warriors of the town hall to confiscate the weapons of these garrison soldiers, but he was at a loss as to how to deal with the thousands of soldiers for a while.
However, whether it was lenient or strict, it was easy to deal with outsiders.
But it was even more difficult when it came to his own people.
Not to mention Xiang Qian, who was lying like a dead fish.
Jiang Wang found it hard not to feel guilty towards Zhu Biqiong, who was still in shock and tears. He was only supposed to help with half a year of work. Before, he had used her as a coolie to fight the plague and set up the illusion array. This time, he had put her in a life-and-death crisis…
She, who had little experience of hardship, was indeed frightened, but because she was afraid, she still participated in the battle in that situation, which made her especially valuable.
“Your fortune ball isn’t very accurate?” Jiang Wang said dryly.
The fortune ball could only be used once a month, and it was only effective on that day, reflecting the fortune of a period of time in real-time. The fortune ball only reacted when Tianqing Cloud Sheep was about to be born. Jiang Wang didn’t know this.
This was purely making conversation.
Zhu Biqiong was amused and annoyed for a while, but she didn’t speak, only closed her reddened eyes.
If Ru Cheng was here…
Jiang Wang sighed silently in his heart.
He turned his head and looked at Du Gu Xiao.
The little one was sitting with her knees hugged in front of Hu Shuanzi’s body, neither crying nor making a fuss, her whole body was dazed and wooden.
Jiang Wang wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say.
Just as the dust settled, a whistling sound rang out in the sky again.
Xiang Qian suddenly sat up, and Zhu Biqiong opened her eyes again in shock and fear.
One wave had just subsided, and another wave was rising. Who was coming this time?
The small Qingyang Town seemed to have become a sweet pastry, attracting people from all sides.
Jiang Wang also raised his sword and looked into the distance, ready to fight.
Only to see two figures rushing from far to near.
When the figures gradually became clear, Jiang Wang showed a smile.
Appearing in front was a fat figure.
When he landed in front of Jiang Wang, the ground seemed to shake.
The only fat man who could get so close without being attacked by Jiang Wang was Chong Xuansheng.
And the person who followed closely behind him, in black helmet and black armor, without revealing his appearance. Who else could it be but Shisi?
“Why are you here?” Jiang Wang asked.
But as soon as the question came out, he thought of the answer: “Executive Qian?”
“Killed him.” Chong Xuansheng narrowed his small eyes, surveyed the surroundings, and couldn’t help but smile: “Not bad, even the Dragon Mask died in your hands!”
Clearly, he was in the army and could not move lightly, and even contacting the outside world was not allowed.
But after intercepting Executive Qian, who was fleeing in a panic, and learning that the Dragon Bone Mask had appeared in Qingyang Town, he rushed over as soon as possible.
And only he and Shisi were here, indicating that he was confident that the two of them were enough to kill the strongest Dragon Mask among the Twelve Bone Masks…
“There’s a problem within the White Bone Dao.” Jiang Wang shook his head and roughly explained the situation at the time.
“White Bone Envoy Zhang Linchuan? Why would he instruct the Rabbit Mask to kill the Dragon Mask?” Chong Xuansheng was thoughtful.
Jiang Wang glanced at him without speaking.
Chong Xuansheng’s words were of course fine, but they undoubtedly showed his familiarity with the White Bone Dao.
Why would Chong Xuansheng, from the top family in Qi, know about a cult thousands of miles away in a small country?
Unless, Qi had already noticed the White Bone Dao’s plot in Yang. Connecting this to the Qi army’s encirclement… it seemed that a clear thread could be drawn.
Chong Xuansheng realized his slip of the tongue, but he didn’t explain anything. In fact, if he wasn’t facing Jiang Wang and was a little relaxed, he wouldn’t have made such a slip of the tongue.
He avoided the topic, looked at the dense mass of surrendered soldiers outside the town, and asked, “What are you going to do with these prisoners?”
“What are your thoughts?” Jiang Wang asked.
“If you don’t plan to…” Chong Xuansheng thought for a while: “I’ll take them back to the army for detention.”
Jiang Wang naturally understood the part he didn’t say. It was nothing more than slaughtering them on the spot…
But he didn’t intend to agree, so he only asked about the latter option: “Is it difficult?”
The reason for asking this was because the Qi army had so far only sealed off the border of Yang in the name of maintaining the Eastern Region. Apart from not allowing people to enter or leave, there were no other actions. It could be seen that the Qi army had its own ideas and had been strongly implementing them.
They might not be willing to take over this group of prisoners.
“It’s not difficult.” Chong Xuansheng shook his head: “These people attacked the industries of my Chongxuan family, you’re just fighting back. It’s reasonable in every way.”
These Jia City garrison soldiers would inevitably become someone else’s knives if they were released, and Qingyang Town did not have the conditions to detain so many people. That’s why Jiang Wang had been troubled before.
Now seeing Chong Xuansheng say this, he said, “Then just take them away.”
Chong Xuansheng smiled: “I still have to trouble you to escort them back. These people surrendered to you, and Shisi and I may have difficulty suppressing them.”
Jiang Wang didn’t believe that he and Shisi really had no way to deal with these soldiers, so Chong Xuansheng definitely had other intentions in saying this.
This wasn’t the time to ask.
“Okay.” Jiang Wang simply agreed: “I’ll go and explain the affairs of Qingyang Town first.”
He had originally planned to let Zhu Biqiong help take on the heavy responsibility. Although she lacked experience in worldly affairs, she was, after all, an extraordinary cultivator, and her injuries were lighter than Xiang Qian’s.
But he didn’t expect that the dispirited Du Gu Xiao took the initiative to take over the burden. “Leave it to me, Master.”
“Ah, okay.”
Jiang Wang hesitated for only a moment before agreeing. Du Gu Xiao had always been responsible for the specific affairs of Qingyang Town, and at this time… she probably needed the feeling of “being needed” very much.
Watching Jiang Wang busying himself, explaining non-stop, Chong Xuansheng blinked his eyes without speaking.
