Chapter 448: Answer | Red Heart Survey [Translation]
Red Heart Survey [Translation] - Updated on April 11, 2025
Su Qi’s question remained unanswered.
None of the Qingqishu could clearly explain the cause of the “Night’s Assault.”
Not all questions have answers. Some people spend their entire lives simply pursuing a possibility.
For the Holy Clan, survival was becoming increasingly difficult, and the “Night’s Assault” was just one of the unsolvable problems.
“I recognized that outfit at a glance.”
“I knew we would get separated after coming in. But I didn’t know she wouldn’t be able to find me.”
“She’s very good at finding people.”
“The Senhai Source Realm is too big. I searched all day yesterday and found nothing. Then I encountered that Sen Bear. I stole its honey, or at least I think it was honey? Very sweet, she would definitely like it, I put it in the box! Where was I? Oh, the bear, the bear kept chasing me, chasing and chasing…”
“I wanted to come out and find her last night, but I couldn’t get out.”
“Later you talked about the Concealing Garment. I thought she would like the Concealing Garment, her movement technique isn’t very good. I wanted to prepare one for her. That way, if she encounters danger in the future and can’t escape, she can hide.”
“I’ll take the Concealing Garment and leave, I won’t waste any time.”
Su Qi chattered on and on, almost talking to himself.
There was hardly any sadness in his tone. The content also had no logic, just a jumbled mess.
“She’s very clever.”
“She’s also better at fighting than me. Her swordsmanship is very good…”
“You understand swordsmanship, right?” he asked Jiang Wang.
Everyone continued to move in the direction of the Concealing Serpent Land.
For Su Qi, someone very important to him had died.
But for the Holy Clan warriors, this was just one of countless people who had disappeared into the “Night.”
They felt sorry, but that was all.
Wasn’t it the same for Wu Quji and Jiang Wang?
Human joys and sorrows are not connected.
Jiang Wang comforted him, “Yes, I understand a little.”
He knew that Su Qi didn’t need any lengthy speeches at this moment, just a simple response would do. To let him know that someone was listening. That was all.
“Her swordsmanship is very good.”
Su Qi repeated again, but only repeated this one sentence.
After that, he didn’t say anything more along the way.
Perhaps it was regret, perhaps it was regret, or perhaps it was both.
The Concealing Serpent Land was approaching.
Qingqishu repeatedly said that the Holy Clan warriors often hunted Concealing Serpents, but the Concealing Garments in the Holy Clan’s inventory were all passed down from many years ago.
Since the appearance of the Yan Owl, the Holy Clan’s activity range has become smaller and smaller.
Usually, there are only two situations for leaving the God’s Shadow Land: hunting and mutual hunting.
The Concealing Serpent Land is a famous forbidden area. The Concealing Serpents are traceless when hidden, as fast as lightning when attacking, carry deadly poison, and are also gregarious, commanded by the Serpent King, and are the most famous assassins in the Senhai Source Realm.
As they approached the Concealing Serpent Land, all the Holy Clan warriors became more and more vigilant, and Qing Bazhi even directly put away the Concealing Garment.
“They will go crazy when they see the Concealing Garment,” Qing Bazhi said.
Jiang Wang understood.
Last time, crossing the Concealing Serpent Land, One Sword Becomes a Circle had already proved that it could withstand the attacks of the Concealing Serpents, which is why he was confident in coming to get materials.
“Who among you has experience hunting Concealing Serpents?” Jiang Wang asked.
Qingqishu and the others looked at each other, and finally all chose to shake their heads.
This was not the time to be brave.
Jiang Wang took the lead, “I have crossed the Concealing Serpent Land alone, so this time I will direct the operation, is that okay?”
“Okay,” Qingqishu said.
“That’s right,” Qing Jiuye agreed.
Qing Bazhi was a little unconvinced, but still nodded.
As for Wu Quji and Su Qi, of course, they would not object.
“Concealing Serpents are gregarious and are commanded by the Serpent King. They know how to ambush and surround. They are poisonous.” Jiang Wang first looked at Qingqishu and said, “Can you defend against the attacks of the Concealing Serpents?”
Qingqishu thought for a while, “The poison won’t kill me.”
“…Okay.”
What amazing vitality.
Jiang Wang looked at Qing Jiuye again, “I have seen your archery skills. During the battle, I may go deep into the snake swarm with Qiqishu to attract attacks. You snipe from the outside to help us reduce the pressure.”
Qing Jiuye nodded, “Leave it to me.”
For Jiang Wang, after experiencing the tempering of the Qi Yang battlefield, commanding small team battles was even easier.
He turned his gaze to Qing Bazhi again, “Although you can’t use the Concealing Garment, you should still lurk first. If you find the Concealing Serpent King, try to kill it with one blow. Can you do it?”
Qing Bazhi said confidently, “As long as I can find it. I will definitely have no problem.”
Jiang Wang looked at him, “I will try my best to force the Serpent King out. Since we have decided to hunt Concealing Serpents, we must strive for the best.”
Then he turned to Wu Quji, “When the hunting starts later, I will assign a Concealing Serpent to you to study as soon as possible, and you should develop a targeted antidote as soon as possible. Is that difficult?”
Wu Quji smiled, “This is what I am good at.”
Different arrangements were made for each person’s strengths.
In the past, when performing Dao Academy missions, it was not so meticulous. This is growth.
And what he paid for it, only he himself knew.
Jiang Wang finally said to Su Qi, “Your movement technique is the best, so you will be the reserve team, improvising as needed.”
Su Qi nodded silently.
On the battlefield, there should always be a reserve team, not for anything else, but to leave room for error. So that it won’t collapse after a single mistake and can’t be recovered.
Moreover, with Su Qi’s current emotional state, he may not be able to undertake major tasks. This is not only irresponsible for his safety, but also irresponsible for the others participating in the hunt.
Jiang Wang said, “You are all battle-hardened experts. I only have general requirements for each of you. You decide how to deal with the specific situation. I also believe that you can make the best response.”
In his arrangement, he will go deep into the snake swarm with Qingqishu, who specializes in defense, to undertake the most dangerous part. Just this point alone, no one can question his command.
In the Holy Clan’s map, the Concealing Serpent Land that Jiang Wang crossed last time is the place where the Concealing Serpents breed the most, and it is also one of the “forbidden areas” for the Holy Clan warriors to hunt.
When the Holy Clan was still strong, they organized many hunts. But with the appearance of the Yan Owl, the Holy Clan continued to lose blood, and it has been a long time since any warriors have come here.
Now, Qingqishu and others will regain the glory of their ancestors. They are all very excited…
Okay. The most excited is undoubtedly Qingqishu.
“I want to use the Concealing Serpent skin to make a hat for Qinghua!” he vowed.
“That’s really ugly,” Qing Bazhi said without any mercy.
“Qinghua never likes to wear hats,” Qing Jiuye also said.
Once Qinghua is involved, he can no longer be calm.
“What do you know? When giving gifts, the important thing is the intention! Think about it, I return full of honor, and present her with a gift with my own hands, and the gift is stained with my sweat, and even dyed with my blood… How touched she would be?” Qingqishu glanced at him contemptuously.
Which of these young people has ever had a lover? They are all too far behind Zhang Xiansheng!
“We are approaching the target location,” Jiang Wang reminded, and timely stopped these jealous “young people” who may be over a hundred years old.
Otherwise, how can it be said that the map obtained by Su Qi is the most useful gain?
These Holy Clan people grow up in the Senhai Source Realm. Although the situation is difficult, they undoubtedly know the dangers here very well.
At least this time, Jiang Wang doesn’t have to wait until he steps into the encirclement to realize that he is in danger.
Far away on the periphery of the Concealing Serpent Land, he unfolded the Dao technique. Non-stop bombardment of the ground, “startling the snakes.”
The most terrifying thing about the Concealing Serpents is their ability to hide, which can be described as coming and going without a trace.
But no matter how hidden, they are not disappeared.
They will still react when they are hurt.
Hiss hiss hiss
The Concealing Serpent King has intelligence and can command the Concealing Serpents to complete various tactical deployments. Faced with Jiang Wang’s posture, it will naturally not sit idly by and watch the snake swarm lie down and wait to die.
“Dry branches” sway, swimming on trees and corners of the ground.
The Concealing Serpent swarm emerged from the hidden state from afar and began to attack.
“Ready!”
Jiang Wang and Qingqishu looked at each other and were about to step forward to attract the snake swarm.
Suddenly a figure shot in from the side.
The person drew a beautiful arc in the air, holding a dagger in both hands, the dagger flashing with cold light!
