Jiang Changsheng looked at the Emperor for a while before retracting his gaze.
He continued to calculate the strongest experts in different ranges to determine his strength level. For the time being, there was not much danger. It was enough for him to cultivate in peace and break through as soon as possible.
He had already secretly decided that after he reached the tenth level of the Dao
Technique, he would change Great Jing. Firstly, he would make the people of Great Jing live more safely and go down the right path. Secondly, he would effectively increase the growth of his incense points.
Jiang Changsheng had never run away from his heart. He valued incense points very much and his heart was not that kind. However, if he could give the people a better life while strengthening himself, he would not be stingy.
After that, Jiang Changsheng continued to cultivate.
The transformation of the Eye of the Great Dao allowed him to begin to touch the opportunity to break through. He felt that he was not far from it.
He was already looking forward to the changes after his breakthrough.
As for the internal strife in Great Jing during this period of time, he would just let them fight and see what kind of tricks they could come up with.
In the 12th year of the Dinghe Era, just after the New Spring, the Emperor gave out a series of commendations. Other than many old officials, one of those who was commended was Yang Yuanhong, who was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Huoqi Army, and another was an old prime minister of the three major provinces.
The bloodbath in Shuntian City continued.
In the 13th year of the Dinghe Era, the Marquis of Expedition and his generals were transferred to the northern border. With them gone, An Chang could cover the sky with one hand in the imperial court.
At the end of the year, the Emperor, Jiang Ci, announced abdication and the Crown Prince, Jiang Xuannian, ascended the throne. The news spread throughout the land.
The next year, Jiang Xuannian ascended the throne and changed the era name to Yanwu. In the 1st year of the Yanwu Era, Jiang Xuan was highly skilled in martial arts and promoted many generals, mostly from the Yang Family. However, in November of the same year, a ferocious beast race attacked from the north. This race was not an intelligent race, but they were huge and their group invasion was unstoppable. Therefore, Jiang Xuannian had no choice but to mobilize the Heavenly Strategy Army and the provinces in the north to resist.
Year 2 of the Yanwu Era. March.
In the Shuntian Palace, Jiang Xuannian sat by the bed and looked at the
previous emperor, Jiang Ci.
Jiang Ci was very weak. He half-opened his eyes and said, “Xuannian… everything has changed. Imperial power is no longer high and mighty.
Counting me, there are now three emperors who have been assassinated. They are getting bolder and bolder. You have to be careful…”
Jiang Xuannian was still holding a small cauldron in his hand. After all, the Heaven and Earth Treasure Toad was a rare treasure, and he did not dare to let go of it for a moment.
Hearing his father’s words, Jiang Xuannian sighed and said, “Father, the fate of the Jiang Family is set. So what if I am careful?”
After he ascended the throne, he realized that many things were no longer under the Emperor’s control.
Everything started when Jiang Ci allowed An Chang and Yang Zheng to fight.
Because the two forces used the excuse of a fight, other than many of the
Emperor’s trusted aides, the Yang Family controlled the city defenses of Shuntian. However, An Chang had the protection of a mysterious expert, so the Yang Family could not do anything to him. The Emperor was in a difficult position. Realizing that both forces could take his life, he did not dare to easily eliminate An Chang and Yang Zheng.
After that battle, the situation in Shuntian City reversed. An Chang and Yang
Zheng seemed to have reached a tacit understanding. On the surface, they were still fighting, but in fact, they had been assassinating the White-robed Guards to weaken the Emperor.
Two years ago, Emperor Jiang Ci was almost assassinated by a mysterious expert. The other party did not really intend to kill him, only severely injured him in order to force him to abdicate.
During the handover period, the Emperor was afraid that something would happen to Jiang Xuannian, so he transferred the Yang Family away. After Jiang Xuannian ascended the throne, An Chang controlled his power, so he had no choice but to recruit the Yang Family back.
At that moment, Jiang Xuannian realized that the imperial court was no longer the Jiang Family’s imperial court, but An Chang and the Yang Family’s.
The Yang Family could not do anything to An Chang, and An Chang’s actions were strange. No one could figure out what he wanted to do. He did not go too far in suppressing the Yang Family and only collected wealth.
Jiang Ci gritted his teeth and said, “If we can’t hold on, then go and find the Dao Ancestor… Even if he has alienated himself from us, we are still bonded by blood. Your grandfather wanted us to strengthen ourselves, but we are powerless to reverse the situation. I have finally understood that the fate of emperors is destined, just like the end of our lives.”
Jiang Xuannian shook his head and said, “We can’t resolve the predicament completely just by asking the Dao Ancestor for help. I feel that the fate of the Jiang Family has been decided, and it is in my generation that it has been decided. I am prepared to support Xuanzhen and cause chaos among the vassals so that Xuanzhen can obtain the position of emperor and rebuild Great Jing!”
The more he spoke, the brighter his eyes became. He said excitedly, “Since ancient times, there has never been an indestructible dynasty. Those dynasties that have lived for hundreds of years have all experienced the turmoil of imperial power. In the end, their relatives turned the tide and continued the fate of the dynasty. The reason why it could continue was because only in order could the hierarchy of the dynasty be turned upside down. Only in chaos can order be established.”
Jiang Ci looked at Jiang Xuannian with a complicated expression and asked,
“Are you willing to part with it?”
Jiang Ci had also thought about it, but such a plan was too humiliating. It would certainly make his name notorious for tens of thousands of years and turn him into a joke in history books.
“Xuanzhen has the potential to become an eternal emperor. I am willing to give everything up for him.”
Jiang Xuannian said in all seriousness. There was even some anticipation in his eyes.
Jiang Ci sighed and said, “You have pampered Xuanzhen since you were young.
Your kind intentions will harm yourself.”
Jiang Xuannian smiled and said, “As an elder brother, I have to take care of my younger brother. Even if he becomes the Emperor, he will still be your descendant.”
At the end of the year, Emperor Dinghe passed away and was posthumously named Emperor Xuan. However, due to his lack of achievements during his reign and the constant internal strife, Jiang Xuannian could not withstand the outside pressure, so he could not send Jiang Ci to the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
In the 3rd year of the Yanwu Era, the Emperor conferred the title of King Wei to his younger brother, Jiang Xuanzhen, and ordered him to go to a province in the north to work. This news did not cause much of a reaction. Every year, a vassal king would be born, so it was not surprising for the public.
That same year, the ferocious beasts in the north were finally killed. The armies of the provinces in the north then started to fight over the corpses of the ferocious beasts.
In the 4th year of the Yanwu Era, the Empress died from poisoning, and the entire dynasty was shocked. The Emperor was furious, and so was the Yang Family. Therefore, they gathered their armies to surround Shuntian City. They believed that it was An Chang’s doing and a huge war broke out, causing countless casualties in Shuntian City. The mysterious expert behind An Chang took action and repelled the Yang Family’s army. Soon after, Yang Zheng issued a secret decree from the Emperor to all parts of the dynasty, which stated anyone who killed An Chang would be conferred with the title of king.
The dynasty was in chaos again!
That year, Jiang Changsheng was 321 years old.
Inside the Daoist temple, he opened his eyes, and a glint could be seen in them.
“I’m finally about to break through, but I’m afraid it will take some time.”
Jiang Changsheng muttered to himself. He stood up and walked out of the Daoist temple. Everyone in the courtyard left. When they saw him appear, they stood up and bowed.
“Master, did you succeed in your breakthrough?”
Bai Qi asked excitedly, her tone filled with anticipation.
Mu Lingluo, Ji Wujun, Jiang Tianming, Ye Xun, the Sword God, Golden Crow, White Dragon, Tai Wa, and Tai Xi were all curious.
The Dao Ancestor had not told them what to do for a long time.
Not long after, Chen Li rushed over. Seeing that everyone was waiting eagerly, he became nervous.
Jiang Changsheng motioned for him to sit down and said, “I am preparing to comprehend the Dao and break through. I will not be coming out for quite a while, so I will leave the Jing Dynasty to you. Chen Li, I will allow your plan to continue, but on the condition that Great Jing will not fall.”
When Chen Li heard that, he hastily nodded.
Jiang Changsheng looked at the others and said, “If the Jiang Family is in trouble, you can also save them, but Tianming cannot help.”
When Jiang Tianming heard this, he wailed and asked, “What if I reach the
Martial King realm?”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Then let’s see who will break through first.’
“Sure!”
Jiang Tianming’s eyes lit up. He was very excited to be able to compete with his great-grandfather on who would break through first.
Mu Lingluo said, “Don’t worry. I will also ask the Mu Family for help. This dynasty will always be surnamed Jiang, and Great Jing will not fall.” Others promised, and so did Ji Wujun.
Even though Great Jing was in chaos, they did not care about it.
Jiang Changsheng gave each of them a strand of his hair and said that they could use it to save their lives in times of crisis. Then, he got up and returned to the Purple Cloud Palace.
“Could it be a spell similar to the Scattering Beans into Soldiers Spell?” Ye Xun asked excitedly.
Ji Wujun smiled and said, “Maybe, but I probably won’t be in danger.”
She did not care about the experts in Great Jing. Here, only Saint Guan could defeat her. Besides, Guan Sheng was one of their people.
“Then give it to me.”
In the face of Ye Xun’s demand, Ji Wujun directly refused and hid Jiang Changsheng’s hair.
Mu Lingluo looked at her with a meaningful gaze but said nothing.
Within the Purple Cloud Palace.
Jiang Changsheng sat down and looked at the hidden expert who was valued at 300 million incense points that accompanied Xu Mang. He muttered, “I’ve waited for you for so long, but you’re still lying low. Then you should go to
Hell.”
The Eye of the Great Dao between his brows opened and golden light flickered.
At that moment, his clone returned with the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror and integrated into his body.
A golden light suddenly shot out from the Eye of the Great Dao and disappeared.
Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes. Since he wanted to break through, he had to do it in peace. Even though he did not care about that hidden expert, no one besides him in Great Jing was his opponent.
Among the mountains, Xu Mang sat by a lake with his upper body bare. The lake was surrounded by mountains, and the scenery was like a painting.
There was a man lying on the ground beside Xu Mang with his legs crossed and a blade of grass in his mouth. He was dressed in cotton clothes and his hair was casually draped over his shoulders. He looked very out of place.
Xu Mang opened his eyes and asked, “Master, how long do I have to train?”
The man closed his eyes and lazily said, “When you can trigger the stars in the sky, you can come out.”
Xu Mang frowned and asked, “Can this ultimate technique really reach that level?”
When the man heard that, he immediately sat up and said solemnly, “Are you questioning me? Our Tiansu Race is a powerful race in the Great Wilderness. With the power of heaven and earth, we swept across the Great Wilderness and almost became the Imperial Race of the Great Wilderness! ”
Xu Mang’s frown deepened.
“Just continue with your training. Besides, it’s not suitable for you to leave the mountain right now. Just wait a little longer.”
The man laid down again and changed into a comfortable position.
Xu Mang looked at the man with vigilance.
Although the other party had saved him, he was still from a foreign race. There must be a conspiracy. However, he also needed the other party’s help. Even if it was a conspiracy, he had to step in.
Xu Mang asked, “Master, can the strongest existence in the Tiansu Race compare to our Great Jing’s Dao Ancestor?”
When the man heard that, he said in disdain, “Dao Ancestor? Who does he think he is? Our Tiansu Race is comparable to the Qiangliang Race…” Boom!
Suddenly, a ray of golden light descended from the sky and struck the man. The terrifying impact sent Xu Mang flying.
Xu Mang slid on the surface of the lake and quickly stabilized his body. When
he looked over, his expression was dull. He saw that the man in cloth clothes had been blasted into charred bones. Then, a breeze blew past and scattered the remains with the wind. It could be said that there was not even a corpse left.
‘How is that possible…’
