Red Heart Patrols the Sky

How dare this so-called Spirit Clan from the Mo Yun Dog Family hang their necks before Zhu Lanruo’s sharp blade?

Therefore, Lingxihua’s escape route was the safe path on this mountainside. Only along this route, Jiang Wang didn’t have to worry about Zhu Lanruo’s ambush.

That’s why he relentlessly pursued Lingxihua.

He didn’t need to kill the now battle-shy Lingxihua; he merely wanted Lingxihua to pave the way for him!

Thus, the current scene emerged. On the winding mountain path, the heavily injured Lingxihua was desperately fleeing at the front, with the burning Flame City close behind, and then came Lu Qilang’s silhouette with his sword spanning the sky.

Lingxihua didn’t want to flee in other directions, but the damned Human Race’s Sword Intent locked down the surroundings, leaving him only one choice!

Jiang Wang stood upon the Flame City, as if riding a speeding, magnificent war chariot, looking majestic.

Lingxihua was like the horse drawing the chariot, the dog clearing the path.

While Lu Qilang in his jade-faced brocade robe strangely followed like a tail.

Who truly was the one desperately fleeing for their life?

Seeing this group about to rush down the Divine Mountain, with long distances ahead, vast world beyond, the Human Race genius still didn’t know what tricks he could pull off...

Suddenly, a trace of blood appeared on Lingxihua’s neck.

"Fool!"

The hidden Zhu Lanruo finally couldn’t hold back, blocking the mountain path, standing in front of Lingxihua, and in front of the blazing Flame City.

Right in the swift descent down the mountain.

Covering his neck with both hands, Lingxihua collapsed in despair, being the first to exit this pursuit.

Only the slender Zhu Lanruo remained, standing in the lavish Flame City. An orchid intercepting the Flame City, as if a slender mantis arm trying to stop a chariot, yet made Jiang Wang in the Flame City react in alarm!

Lingxihua, sprawled on the mountain path, covered his neck with both hands, staring in shock, anger, and fear, uttering gasping sounds of dying.

He had already given his all to escape Jiang Wang’s pursuit, never expecting Zhu Lanruo would suddenly strike him!

A True Monster is about to descend to earth, the God Enthronement Platform has issued an honor task, with Ling Father watching this place, how dare Zhu Lanruo?!

But the reality had occurred, no matter the shock and anger, it was futile; he could only be trapped in the abyss of fear, waiting for the eternal darkness to descend.

Yet covering his neck for so long, though soaked in blood, the wound on his neck wasn’t as deep as imagined... His head wasn’t severed!

He struggled to turn back, lying on the ground.

Just in time to see a long stream of blood beads flying from the neck of the young bald man from Mount Sumeru, inside the luxurious Flame City, the wound rapidly expanding!

Although Zhu Lanruo loathed Lingxihua as incompetent and defeating affairs, she indeed didn’t plan to kill him in broad daylight, especially now at the critical moment of pursuing the Human Race genius, striking a fellow race member was particularly hard to explain.

So, although she attacked Lingxihua, she still aimed to kill Jiang Wang.

The second way to transmin Cause and Effect, no longer was "transplant others’ fruit to herself," but "their Cause and Effect all upon this branch."

To put it simply, the harm meant for Lingxihua should now be borne by Jiang Wang.

This so-called Divine Skills!

Under the "cultivation" of the Three Evil Tribulation Monarch, Lingxihua’s power was up to par, combat skills followed, yet qualities like mental will and combat vision, these unseekable things, still had a gap from a true genius.

It’s not about enduring pain, defining top-level willpower. It’s not about being ruthless to oneself, qualifying as a strong-willed character.

Zhu Lanruo’s severed string had cut his neck, taking a while to realize he wasn’t dead.

Jiang Wang, riding Flame City chasing him, reacted in alarm the moment Zhu Lanruo showed herself.

In this difficult battle, Jiang Wang was grateful countless times for his extensive pre-fight observation, gathering abundant intelligence, supplementing plenty of Knowledge.

Otherwise, if colliding with this group of Heavenly Demon seeds without understanding, he fears he wouldn’t last a glance.

Zhu Lanruo twice utilized Cause and Effect, he observed and analyzed from within the Mirror World. His mind has long rehearsed countless responses.

He fully acknowledges that this Cause and Effect is one of the most terrifying Divine Skills he’s ever seen.

But there are never invincible Divine Skills, only invincible people.

He’s seen Reverse Travel, he’s seen Hetian, none can’t be overcome.

Zhu Lanruo’s two applications of Divine Skills, he saw and remembered, using Dream Order to verify many assumptions, designing numerous ways to counter — whether they were effective, he’d only know upon real encounter.

Because he researched Zhu Lanruo seriously, knowing her terror, he listed her at the top of his kill list... just couldn’t achieve it.

Zhu Lanruo’s combat wisdom was more evident, she seemed aware of the significance of "knowing oneself and the enemy," understanding the substantial aid it could offer Jiang Wang in combat. So, seeing Jiang Wang nearly escaping with Lingxihua’s help, having to intercept, she chose to show the third application of Cause and Effect.

This time not used in the Shenxiao World, Jiang Wang certainly couldn’t comprehend, so it held the most potential for success.

She seemed to have indeed caught Jiang Wang off guard!

The flying blood that circles halfway around the neck in Flame city has a sense of brutal romance.

And amid this flying blood and flame, Zhu Lanruo once again caught Jiang Wang’s gaze, the crimson-gold eyes, seemingly eternal and immortal.

There was no pain, no astonishment, only steadfastness and relentless advance.

She sensed danger!

Jiang Wang never relaxed his vigilance against Zhu Lanruo.

In this duel, when Lingxihua was driven like a dog to forge ahead, he had an inevitable correct foresight — Zhu Lanruo would inevitably appear to stop him, and on this downward path.

Therefore, he was fully prepared for Zhu Lanruo’s move.

Why did Zhu Lanruo target Lingxihua?

Was it necessary?

No matter how you look at it, Zhu Lanruo’s killing of Lingxihua was an unwise move. Yet Zhu Lanruo is a woman of extreme wisdom and battle prowess!

Thus Jiang Wang immediately realized that this attack was aimed at him!

As they say, "The cause and effect of Lan Yin are all on this branch."

The causes and effects that Lingxihua cannot bear do not mean Jiang Wang cannot.

The saying "A rope breaks at the slender part, misfortune finds the miserable person" implies—when has fate ever favored anyone? In the vast sea of suffering, only small boats cannot withstand the storm.

In other words, Jiang Wang had the chance to block this strike.

But why didn’t he?

Because time was pressing, he didn’t have the leisure to waste time with Zhu Lanruo.

Because it was also his chance!

Zhu Lanruo slit open his neck, and he seized Zhu Lanruo’s gaze.

If I bear its effects, I also endure its cause.

The consequences of Lingxihua are on my neck.

What is Lingxihua’s cause?

A moment later, black spiritual flames ignited on Zhu Lanruo’s body!

The simultaneous burning pain of body and spirit made Zhu Lanruo’s delicate brow twitch like a taut string.

She indeed didn’t expect Jiang Wang to grasp her divine skills so clearly or to have such precise judgment of her combat intentions. She further didn’t expect that at this critical moment of life and death, Jiang Wang’s thoughts were all about killing the enemy, not self-preservation!

Thus the Six Desires Bodhisattva opened the Heavenly Gate, launching a golden attack from her palm!

Thus Flame Flower Burning City roared forward, directly smashing onto her, crushing over her body!

The blood at Jiang Wang’s neck immediately stopped.

The divine skill effect of Lan Yin’s cause and effect was forcibly severed!

No.

A divine skill worthy of legend could not be so simple. Zhu Lanruo, possessing this divine skill, couldn’t be subdued so easily!

During her time of spitting blood while falling back, she once again activated her divine skills.

Her cause and effect are tied to this branch!

Between us, we exchange cause and effect!

Thus the black spiritual flames invaded Jiang Wang’s exterior, with the Heavenly Gate suppressing the spirit world, the Six Desires Bodhisattva creating chaos, and golden attacks slamming me. Additionally, Flame Flower Burning City rolled over this body!

But Jiang Wang had already endured one cycle of exchanged cause and effect; how could he not be prepared? All his attacks were deliberately chosen.

In the Five Mansions Sea, the Sword Immortal stands, singularly illuminating with a red heart.

I am undisturbed by the world’s suppression by the Heavenly Gate, and I am unconfused by the Six Desires Bodhisattva, catching the golden attack with one palm!

The invading flames are wrapped by Samadhi True Fire and burned out.

The rolling Flame Flower Burning City is allowed to pass over; what harm can red fire do to me?

At this moment, he is resplendent like a Heavenly God, directly emerging from Flame city.

Let this Xiong City obstruct Lu Qilang behind him.

Meanwhile, he flies through the long sky like frost, welcoming Zhu Lanruo, who is also suffering from exchanged cause and effect and a slit neck, with another sweeping sword!
