Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

When Dong A accused General Huangfu Duanming in the court, he angrily rebuked him for monopolizing military power.

He used a very serious term, "may have ulterior motives".

The outcome was that Huangfu Duanming remained as steady as a mountain, while Dong A was sent to Fenglin City and withdrew from the center of power. This was the result of the protection from the Prime Minister Du Ruhui.

Unless Huangfu Duanming falls from power, Dong A probably won't be able to return to Xin'an City in his lifetime.

...

There are few people who can truly understand Dong A's mood.

It wasn't until the dust settled on the whole matter that he turned around and looked at the most outstanding person among the new students this year. "Do you have something to tell me today?"

Jiang Wang had already made up his mind, but when it came to the moment, he hesitated.

After all, this was not a small matter, but something that concerned his life and death.

Dong A turned and walked away. "Then wait until you've made up your mind."

Jiang Wang: "..."

...

Jiang Wang followed behind until they returned to the courtyard.

Dong A ignored him and went straight to the quiet room, sitting cross-legged on the cushion.

It seemed that if Jiang Wang didn't speak, he would start cultivating.

"Master Dong!"

Jiang Wang made up his mind and immediately knelt down on the ground, refusing to raise his head for a long time.

This was the first time he had shown such a great gesture of respect to Dong A, and it made it clear how serious and determined he was.

But Dong A simply said, "Get up and speak."

He still had the same indifferent expression, as if nothing could move him. There was no person or thing that could change him.

Jiang Wang raised his head and sat facing Dong A.

His eyes were slightly red. "Master Dong, before I report, I hope you can promise me. Take care of my sister, Jiang Anan, in the future. Besides her, I have nothing else to worry about."

Dong A frowned. "Wait until you're about to die to make arrangements for afterlife."

Jiang Wang's emotions, which had been brewing all night, were interrupted like this.

He silently composed himself.

After a while, he continued, "I suspect that the White Bone Sect is brewing a new conspiracy. After sacrificing Xiaolin Town and being killed by the Lord of the City in the Three City Debate, everyone thought they had left the Zhuang Kingdom.

But in fact, they never left the Fenglin City area. Their nest is even near the residence of the City Guards in Niutou Mountain!

They have already moved away now, but I don't know where exactly they have moved to.

Also, Fang Heling has already become a member of the White Bone Sect and is working for them. I suspect that there are more people involved or controlled by them. They have something called the White Bone Seed, which is very rare but can perfectly control a person."

Dong A waited patiently for him to finish before asking, "How do you know?"

Jiang Wang paused for a moment and said, "When I was conducting an investigation, I found something suspicious about Fang Heling. Last night, in fact, besides the undercover agent from the Judicial Department, I was also tracking Fang Heling.

We followed them to Niutou Mountain and fell into an ambush.

The undercover agent from the Judicial Department was killed... but they said I am the descendant of the White Bone Sect and the future Saint of the White Bone Sect. They think I am in league with them."

He finally chose to be honest.

This decision was undoubtedly very difficult. But he still made it.

It was just a student's trust in his teacher.

It was just a young man making a simple choice between his own safety and the safety of the whole city.

He didn't know what he would face.

He was even prepared for Dong A to kill him for the greater good, after all, this dean he respected had always been upright and intolerant of any wrongdoing.

"What do you think?" Dong A asked.

"Ah?"

"What do you think about them saying that you are the descendant of the White Bone Sect?" Dong A repeated, "What do you think?"

Jiang Wang raised his head abruptly, "Of course I don't want to! I absolutely cannot commit the massacre of civilians, cannot harm the innocent, cannot desecrate the deceased, and cannot extinguish humanity! I would rather die than join the White Bone Sect!"

His emotions were very agitated.

But Dong A just nodded, "Alright. You can go back now."

Jiang Wang was stunned.

Just let me go like this? Let me go back?

Aren't I the descendant of the White Bone Sect? The future Saint of the White Bone Sect? The leader of those evil cults!

Just let me go so easily?

"Do you have anything else?" Dong A asked impatiently.

Jiang Wang tentatively said, "About the White Bone Sect..."

"I will handle it."

"Shouldn't I go to the Lord's Mansion to report this to Lord Wei?"

"I will personally communicate with Wei Quji."

"Do you have no instructions for me, Master?"

"Work hard in your cultivation and take care of your sister." Dong A still spoke sparingly.

"Is there anything else?"

"...Don't bother me."

"Okay." Jiang Wang stood up in a daze and walked out.

After taking two steps, he couldn't help but turn back, "Master Dong, are you really not assigning me any tasks?"

Dong A sighed. Unusually, he said a few more words, "Do you really want me to tell you how useless and vulnerable you are in the face of forces like the White Bone Sect?"

"...I understand."

Jiang Wang walked out quickly.

Dong A's voice came from behind him, "By the way, if they reveal any more information to you as the future Saint, inform me immediately."

The winter sunlight outside the house seemed particularly dazzling.

Jiang Wang's nose felt sour.

"Understood!" he said.

...

On a high cliff, the mountain wind blew through their long hair.

"When will the descendant awaken?" the White Bone Messenger asked from behind Bai Lian.

Bai Lian turned around. "I don't know what you're talking about."

The lotus-patterned mask covered her face, leaving only a pair of eyes to meet the White Bone Messenger's gaze.

"After wearing the mask for so long, perhaps you have forgotten who you are."

The White Bone Messenger reached out and took off the lotus-patterned mask, revealing the face that belonged to Miao Yu.

"What about you?" Miao Yu asked, "Do you still remember who you are?"

"As for me..." The White Bone Messenger walked to her side, and the two stood side by side on the high cliff, facing opposite directions."I can't remember." He said.

Miaoyu seemed not to care about his answer, and asked, "Has Lu Yan looked for you?"

The Bone Messenger looked down the cliff, "Everyone in the Path of Bones is half real, half fake. Every word they say is cautious. They probe and target each other, yet they have to move forward for the same goal. Until the last moment, no one knows whether their attitudes are true or false. He showed the intention to kill Ouyang Lie, but I have to dare to believe it."

"You are the same, I have to dare to believe you." Miaoyu said.

"You should believe me, because at least until now, our goals are still the same. We are all seeking the awakening of the Taoist."

"Everyone in the Path of Bones is waiting for the Taoist to awaken. But no one cares who the Taoist is."

"What about you? Do you care?"

"I once thought I wouldn't care, because no matter who he is born as, the Taoist is still the Taoist. But now..." Miaoyu gently pressed her heart, "I seem a bit confused."

"That's very dangerous."

"Yes..."

"Then let go of what you want to do. According to the oracle, as long as the plan goes to that step, the Taoist will naturally awaken. Whether you do it or not, choose or not, it makes no difference." The Bone Messenger said.

"I still hope that it can be more perfect." Miaoyu smiled vaguely, "I didn't expect that the Respected God would issue an oracle again. He has returned from the River of Forgetfulness, and we are still trying to speculate on the secrets of heaven, how ridiculous."

"The plan is about to start." The Bone Messenger faced the distance, his hands wide open, as if embracing everything in his sight, "Do you want to say something to them?"

"May the Respected God bring them fairness." Miaoyu said.

In the distance, there was a towering mountain peak, as if it had flown from the sky.
