Chapter 31: Wulin Attacks, Unfathomable Leader
"How much do you know about the vastness of the world? How much is beyond the Great Scenery? Who can tell for sure?"
Jiang Changsheng smiled, and his words made Wang Chen nod, thinking that they made sense.
Since ancient times, no one knew how big the world was. It was rumored that Gu Khan not only faced Dajing, but also the dynasty on the other side. Dajing was lucky because it was close to the sea and was not surrounded by enemies.
Jiang Changsheng called the young King of Wei to his side and began to teach him martial arts.
Wanli, Mingyue and Ping'an walked aside to practice martial arts. Although Ping'an was stupid, he was naturally combative. When he saw them getting ready, he became excited and rushed forward directly.
In the past two years, Jiang Changsheng successfully created an internal skill, which he named Qiankun Tianjing. It imitated the first three levels of the Taoism Natural Skill and expanded it to seven levels. Although it is not as good as the Taoism Natural Skill, it is by no means comparable to ordinary skills.
Currently, Wang Chen, Little King Wei, and Hua Jianxin are all practicing the Qiankun Heavenly Scripture.
Ping An is practicing the Xuan Nei Ba Ti, but teaching Ping An is more difficult than teaching the young King of Wei.
Leaves are falling.
On the distant eaves, a man in white stood quietly, gazing at the sky. The scene was peaceful and beautiful.
…
In the 34th year of Kaiyuan, Gu Khan launched a massive invasion of Dajing. Other surrounding dynasties were also ready to move, and Dajing fell into the biggest crisis in 30 years.
Crown Prince Jiang Yu had to go to the front line, and the emperor stayed in the capital. However, he attended court less and less frequently, became increasingly weak, and people in the court were becoming increasingly restless.
Although Dajing was in turmoil, the martial arts world flourished. Without the restrictions of local governments, the martial arts world became more unrestrained, and all kinds of influential figures and geniuses emerged.
This day.
Longqi Temple welcomed a guest.
This man had disheveled hair, torn clothes, and was dirty like an old beggar.
The disciple guarding the mountain gate did not despise him, but took him into the temple and gave him something to eat.
The old beggar grabbed his hand and asked, "Is Taoist Changsheng still here?"
The disciple smiled and said, "You also want to see Taoist Changsheng? Forget it. Many dignitaries wanted to talk to the Taoist, but were rejected. The Taoist is busy practicing Taoism and has no time to deal with the mundane world. If you have come all the way here, why not meet the white dragon? It is the spiritual beast of our Longqi Temple. Meeting it once can change your life fortune."
The old beggar pushed aside his hair, revealing a face full of scars, which was extremely creepy and frightened the disciples.
"Please tell him that Li Changqing is here to visit." The old beggar said in a trembling voice.
"Li Changqing?"
The disciple frowned and muttered, then he suddenly thought of something, his face changed drastically, and he quickly said, "Okay, I'll go tell the master right away."
After he left, the old beggar walked out of the kitchen and into the courtyard. Looking at the nearby buildings, his eyes were full of nostalgia.
After an incense stick of time, the disciple came back and took Li Changqing to the Taoist priest's courtyard.
Along the way, Li Changqing looked around, feeling both familiar and unfamiliar.
Longqi Temple has become more lively, with more disciples, but fewer familiar faces.
There was no conversation along the way until the two arrived at Jiang Changsheng's courtyard. The disciple bowed and saluted towards the courtyard, then left.
Li Changqing took a deep breath and walked into the courtyard carefully. He saw two children and an ugly Taoist priest cleaning the courtyard. His junior brother Jiang Changsheng was meditating under a tree. His aura was one with the heaven and earth, making it impossible for him to catch it.
When Li Changqing saw Jiang Changsheng, he was in a trance.
When he left, Jiang Changsheng was still a minor. After so many years, he still recognized him at a glance. He just didn't expect Jiang Changsheng to be so young. Actually, this junior brother should be about 34 years old.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Big Brother, long time no see, why don't you come over and sit down, Wangchen, make some tea."
Hearing this, Wang Chen immediately walked towards the house.
The young King of Wei was practicing martial arts. He just glanced at Li Changqing and lay safely in the small pool taking a bath. That was the potion specially developed by Jiang Changsheng for him, which could strengthen his body.
Li Changqing came to his senses, walked to Jiang Changsheng and sat down.
"It's been many years since we last met. Longqi Temple is lucky to have you."
Li Changqing sighed. He always felt that this junior fellow apprentice was very mysterious. Unfortunately, he left Longqi Temple very early and did not witness his junior fellow apprentice's growth.
Jiang Changsheng began to greet him, and when he saw him again, Jiang Changsheng's heart was also full of emotion.
The once handsome and generous senior brother has now fallen into such a state.
He could feel that Li Changqing had already reached the Tongtian realm, but his true energy was in chaos, and his internal organs had all been severely damaged. He would not live long.
Li Changqing just reminisced about their childhood experiences with Jiang Changsheng and did not mention himself much. Jiang Changsheng did not ask either, after all, Chen Li had mentioned him about it before.
After chatting for an hour, Li Changqing started coughing and even coughed up blood.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Junior brother, Taoist Changsheng, I came back this time to be buried in Longqi Temple. Can you give me a resting place?"
His voice was weak and feeble.
Jiang Changsheng said, "Of course I can. Wangchen, take Senior Brother Li to see Senior Sister and let her make the arrangements. Just tell her that I have agreed."
Wang Chen next to him came over immediately, and Li Changqing stood up as well.
Looking at the two people leaving, Jiang Changsheng felt relieved.
Fortunately, I did not go down the mountain, and fortunately, I did not obsess over the love between my children.
Jiang Changsheng naturally also likes women, but he knows his limits. Before he becomes absolutely invincible, he doesn't want to create a weakness for himself. He also hasn't revealed his relationship with Hua Jianxin, and only they know about it.
He did not intend to save Li Changqing. Li Changqing was possessed by love and had killed too many people. Saving him would only add to the trouble. Besides, the feelings between the two were not that deep.
Meng Qiu Shuang was naturally excited to see Li Changqing. The two brothers and sisters chatted for a long time. Once upon a time, Meng Qiu Shuang had a little admiration for Li Changqing. After all, in the Taoist temple, Li Changqing was the eldest disciple and took good care of his younger brothers and sisters. However, this little admiration has been diluted by the years.
Five days later, Li Changqing died in the early morning. Jiang Changsheng, Meng Qiushuang and some old disciples buried him and the matter was not made a big deal.
But in the following days, Jiang Changsheng caught some warriors sneaking into the mountain and searching everywhere, but they did not do any evil and left quietly.
The other party stayed in front of Li Changqing's tombstone for a while, probably an enemy.
Jiang Changsheng did not interfere in their feud. Li Changqing was dead and the grudge should be settled. If the other party was still stubborn and wanted to find trouble with Longqi Temple, then that would be great. He could be given a survival reward.
Half a month later.
Chen Li, who was already a fourth-rank official, came. After the Chen family took refuge with the Seventh Prince, they were promoted by the Seventh Prince. The frustrated Chen Li finally made it. Chen Li currently works in the Ministry of Households and has his own mansion, so he doesn't have to squeeze into the Chen family.
"Changsheng, you buried Li Changqing in the mountains? This is bad. A large number of warriors are gathering outside the capital, from all major sects. My Chen family has children among them, and they want to dig up Li Changqing's grave."
Chen Li said worriedly, with a look of concern on his face.
The young King of Wei was not here today, so Wang Chen and Ping An were wandering around the mountain, and there were only the two of them in the courtyard.
Chen Li continued, "Now that His Majesty the Seventh Prince has assembled a large army to go to the battlefield, the combined number of soldiers inside and outside the capital does not exceed 100,000. If there are too many warriors, you may not be able to stop them, and the court will force you to bow your head."
Jiang Changsheng said: "People are dead, what's the point of digging graves?"
Chen Li said: "Indeed, I think the other party must have other purposes, but they have reasons for revenge, and it is not morally easy to drive them away, and the current situation is..."
During this period, Jiang Changsheng also saw a large number of warriors gathering outside the city, but he didn't care because they were all very weak.
Jiang Changsheng asked: "Will the capital open the gates and allow them to surround Longqi Mountain?"
Chen Li thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say, but I don't rule out this possibility. After all, most of these sects have established themselves because they have made friends with court officials. The Seventh Prince is not here, and the Fourth Prince is not here either. His Majesty has been confined to the palace to recuperate recently, so I'm afraid he won't be able to protect Longqi Temple."
Jiang Changsheng said: "I understand."
Chen Li followed up and said, "If you want to evacuate, my Chen family can arrange it."
Jiang Changsheng shook his head and laughed: "Brother Chen, although I am not good at fighting, if someone dares to fight at my doorstep, I will not show mercy."
Chen Li thought of the Ghost-Eyed Evil King and suddenly realized that Jiang Changsheng had also killed people and was not as gentle as he seemed. After living together for so many years, he almost forgot this.
He gave a few more instructions and then left. He had been very busy lately and it was not easy for him to come in person.
Jiang Changsheng looked toward the horizon but did not stand up.
There aren't enough people.
More, so the survival reward will be greater.
Jiang Changsheng practiced every day and occasionally took spirit-enhancing pills. His cultivation level became higher every year. Even if these sects could gather a hundred people at the Tongtian realm, he would not take them seriously.
Over the years, the Seventh Prince and Mahayana Dragon Tower did not come to test him, which means that they did not suspect Longqi Guan at all, and did not even know that Jiang Changsheng was an enemy.
On the surface, Jiang Changsheng is the master of the young King of Wei and can be considered the Seventh Prince's man.
That night.
Someone else went up the mountain, and this time he went straight to Jiang Changsheng's courtyard. Jiang Changsheng did not stop him because he was an old acquaintance.
There was a knock on the windowsill, and a voice came in: "Is the Taoist priest here? It's me, the Demon Lord."
He spoke in a very low voice, for fear that Wangchen and Ping'an in the next room might hear him.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and the window suddenly opened. The Demon Lord was frightened and shuddered. Seeing Jiang Changsheng in the room, he immediately jumped in and bowed in front of Jiang Changsheng.
"Master, something is wrong. Someone in the martial arts world wants to use Li Changqing's name to seize the White Dragon."
The Demon Lord said in a deep voice: "According to my understanding, the leader behind this is the leader of Guiyuan Divine Sect. The spirituality of the white dragon is already well-known throughout the world. Over the years, that leader has been looking for spiritual beasts, sucking their spiritual blood, and tempering his muscles and bones. His power is unfathomable. I have met him before, and he is very scary. I even think he is stronger than the head of the criminal sect and the Tongtian in the palace."
When Jiang Changsheng heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
It turns out that the other party was targeting Bai Long. Even if Li Changqing was not there, they could probably find a reason, such as Li Changqing was trained by Longqi Temple, so Longqi Temple must pay for the blood debt with blood?
Jiang Changsheng had long heard of the charisma of the leader of Guiyuan Divine Sect. The former young genius, now a martial arts giant, was expected to compete for the throne of the supreme master of martial arts.
"Has he arrived yet?" Jiang Changsheng asked.
The Demon Lord said, "Not yet, at most ten days, and they have bribed many civil and military officials. When the city gates are opened, they will be allowed to enter the city, and their target will be Longqi Temple."
