“Which direction did it go?”

Even though the Mu Family was still far from the Dragon Vein Continent, for such a powerful demon beast, it might only take a few years to reach the Dragon Vein Continent.

Mu Lingluo said, “From the direction it left, it overlapped with us.”

She carefully observed Jiang Changsheng’s expression and found that he was not surprised. It was as if he did not care about it.

“Brother Changsheng, that demon beast is different from the sea beasts we encountered before. You must be careful.” Mu Lingluo reminded him. Even though she did not know how powerful Great Jing was, there would certainly be countless mortals and commoners in a country. She did not want to see lives plunged into misery and suffering.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I know. Thank you for your reminder. If it really arrives at Great Jing, then Great Jing will be its final destination.”

He said it casually, but the more he said it, the more Mu Lingluo admired him.

“Brother Changsheng, how strong are you right now? You haven’t told me how many sub-realms there are in the Grotto-heaven realm.”

Mu Lingluo started to act cute. She was clearly already a few decades old, but in front of Jiang Changsheng, she would always be like a little girl.

Jiang Changsheng hesitated for a moment before he decided to tell her about the sub-realms, even though she had only reached the Golden Body realm. After a while.

Mu Lingluo sighed with emotion. She knew that there must be realms above the Three Grotto-heaven realm, but she did not expect there to be nine.

She was even more curious about Jiang Changsheng’s realm and asked,

“Brother Changsheng, you’re so powerful. You must be in the Nine Grotto-heaven realm, right? That’s in line with the strength of an immortal.”

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “More or less.”

Mu Lingluo was filled with respect.

Two years later.

54th year of the Shuntian Era, New Year.

The Emperor began to cultivate in seclusion and pursue martial arts. The affairs of the Great Jing were all handed over to the Crown Prince, Jiang Che. Jiang Che’s abilities had already obtained the trust of the citizens of the land, but there were more and more voices in the streets.

Everyone knew that the Emperor pursued martial arts for his lifespan, but the longer he reigned, the more miserable the Crown Prince would be. Could this crown prince become the first crown prince who had clearly ruled the country but had yet to ascend the throne?

Jiang Che had also trained his cronies over the years. He had even arranged for some people to observe the people and the martial arts world. According to the reports of some people, he had also heard those voices, which made him feel even worse.

The 44-year-old Crown Prince no longer had a smile on his face.

On this day.

Ji Wujun came to visit Jiang Changsheng. Jiang Changsheng was still willing to meet this expert in the Six Grotto-heaven realm. In the future, if he went into seclusion, he could ask Ji Wujun to help him protect Great Jing.

Since Ji Wujun dared to eradicate the World Destruction Tree alone, she should have a great sense of justice. Coupled with the fact that the Ji Family was no longer around, he could indeed rope her in.

For the past two years, Jiang Changsheng had been observing Ji Wujun. She was very well-behaved and did not make any small moves. She also kept her distance from the imperial family.

“Dao Ancestor, someone from the imperial family has been investigating me recently. Even at night, someone had snuck into my residence. Can you help me explain?

Ji Wujun felt very helpless. If not for the sake of the Dao Ancestor, how could she tolerate these people being so rude?

Jiang Changsheng said, “Yes, I will tell the Crown Prince.”

Ji Wujun sat in front of him and said, “Dao Ancestor, when are you free to compare notes? I know I am not your opponent, but I also want to fight with an expert like you to increase my understanding of martial arts.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Ye Xun came over and said, “Miss Ji, why don’t we compare notes first?”

Ji Wujun frowned and became somewhat impatient.

Jiang Changsheng casually said, “It seems like you already have an answer.”

Hearing this, Ji Wujun was stunned for a moment before feeling ashamed. She immediately said, “Then I’ll compare notes with him first.”

She knew that the Dao Ancestor was comparing her to Ye Xun. Wasn’t the difference between Ye Xun and her the difference between her and the Dao Ancestor?

Thinking of this, Ji Wujun felt that there was something wrong with her mentality. This was not a good thing. They were all martial artists who pursued martial arts. They should respect each other, and she should let go of everything in the past.

“Then find a deserted place to spar. Remember, control your aura and don’t hurt the people. If you can control your aura freely, there won’t be so many meaningless earth-shattering events. Only then will your martial arts truly cross the threshold.”

Jiang Changsheng said with his eyes closed. His words caused Ji Wujun and Ye Xun to fall into deep thought.

They could not sense Jiang Changsheng’s aura and thought it was because his technique was special. But after hearing Jiang Changsheng’s words today, they felt that it made sense.

Perhaps they should also pay attention to other things.

Ji Wujun felt respect for Jiang Changsheng. Since the World Destruction Tree was solved, she had always respected Jiang Changsheng. However, his words today made her feel that the Dao Ancestor had the bearing of a martial sage. Just two simple sentences made her understand her two shortcomings.

It seemed like joining Great Jing was a wise choice.

Then, Ji Wujun left with Ye Xun.

Bai Qi curiously asked, “Master, is that woman very strong? I said she has the same fighting strength as us.”

After being with Ye Xun and Yang Zhou for a long time, she no longer measured talent by realm. Instead, she measured it by combat strength within the same realm, or rather, whether they could fight beyond their realm.

Jiang Changsheng said, “Very strong. In terms of talent, she might not be inferior to Ye Xun.

In his opinion, it was not necessarily inferior.

Ji Wujun was obviously a genius from the Sacred Dynasty. Ye Xun was indeed powerful, but he was only the number one in an ocean area.

Bai Qi lamented, “There are more and more prodigies around Master, and they are getting more and more outrageous.”

Jiang Changsheng declined to comment.

Bai Qi did not say anything else. She felt that her master was playing a huge game of chess.

In any case, she could not figure out why Jiang Changsheng treated Great Jing so well. How many years had Jiang Ziyu been dead?

When she thought of that guess in her heart, she was even a little excited.

An hour later, Ji Wujun and Ye Xun returned. Ji Wujun’s clothes were not stained with dust, and she did not look like she had just fought. On the other hand, Ye Xun was in an extremely sorry state. His hair was messy, his clothes were ragged, his face was swollen, and he was covered with wounds.

He looked at Ji Wujun with a trace of fear, just like when he looked at Jiang Changsheng.

Ji Wujun ignored his gaze and sat down in front of Jiang Changsheng, gathering her courage to ask for guidance on martial arts.

Jiang Changsheng did not refuse. In the face of her doubts, he deliberately made some seemingly profound but in fact, nonsense.

Sure enough, Ji Wujun was stunned.

Practice proved the truth. Jiang Changsheng had discovered that in the face of geniuses, he should not explain it clearly. As long as he gave them a direction, they would comprehend it on their own and create better martial arts techniques.

Of course, it did not mean that other than practicing martial arts, these geniuses were stupid to judge others. Instead, it was because Jiang Changsheng was too strong.

This was the case in any world.

The words of the strong were convincing, especially when the strong indicated that they were guiding you and giving you benefits. People would always think more.

Sometimes, geniuses needed powerful forces to calm their wavering hearts and let them get rid of their current entanglement as soon as possible.

In this way, Ji Wujun would visit Jiang Changsheng every now and then.

Half a year later, she requested to move into the courtyard. In any case, there were enough room, so Jiang Changsheng agreed. Plus, he felt more at ease keeping her by his side so that she would not run around.

This made Ye Xun feel even more threatened. He began to concentrate on his training, and he even had less time to teach Yang Zhou. Fortunately, Yang

Zhou no longer needed his personal guidance. As for his previous guidance, Ye Xun was just worried about him.

Another three years passed.

Year 57 of the Shuntian Era.

The atmosphere in the capital became strange. Due to the frequent discharge of officials, the Crown Prince had changed many officials in the Ministry of Luck. His actions had also aroused the dissatisfaction of many people, but as someone else appeared by Jiang Che’s side, those dissatisfied voices disappeared.

Jiang Jian!

At the end of last year, Jiang Jian and Ping’an returned safely. After Jiang Che met him, the two of them became familiar with each other.

Jiang Che’s current situation was similar to Jing Renzong back then, so Jiang Jian had a favorable impression of him.

“Grandmaster, why don’t you go and say something? Let the Emperor give way!”

In the courtyard, Jiang Jian said some disrespectful words.

Jiang Changsheng remained silent.

Bai Qi teased, “What kind of bewitching soup did the little prince feed you? Are you going to support his rebellion?”

Jiang Jian said nonchalantly, “Of course not. But I think if the Emperor wants to practice martial arts, he should give up the throne and give his descendants a chance.”

Back then, he also had the chance to fight for the throne, but he only wanted to pursue martial arts, so he was very dissatisfied with Emperor Shuntian.

He wanted his son to govern the country while he occupied the throne. Wasn’t that occupying the toilet and not pooping?

It was unfair that the history books would record all of Jiang Che’s achievements on Emperor Shuntian’s head.

Of course, this also showed how outstanding Jiang Che was.

Ye Xun smiled and said, “It seems that even if emperors have decided on the crown prince, they are unwilling to give up their position. They are even afraid of the crown prince. They will only give up the throne after they die.”

Ji Wujun added, “Indeed, the same is true for the Sacred Dynasty.”

Jiang Jian also knew her identity, so he respected her greatly. He looked at her and said, “Senior, in your opinion, is this behavior good? Is it considered responsible to the people and the future generations?”

Ji Wujun calmly said, “Don’t ask me. If I knew the answer to that question, I would not have been chased by the officials of the Sacred Dynasty.”

Before she could figure out Jiang Changsheng’s exact attitude towards Great Jing, she would not interfere with the imperial power.

Jiang Jian looked at Jiang Changsheng and said, “Grandmaster, please say something. ”

He knew Jiang Changsheng’s real identity. In his opinion, Jiang Changsheng was qualified to determine the throne.

Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes and said, “The matter of the throne is between father and son. How can I interfere? Let’s leave it to them. If Jiang Che is really capable, he must have a way to obtain the throne. Of course, there’s one thing you have to tell him. No matter what, the empire cannot be in chaos and the imperial family cannot shed blood.”

This sentence was also a warning to Jiang Jian.

Once he opened his mouth, the descendants of the Jiang Family would follow his words, which was not a good thing.

In the early days of Great Jing, the matter of father and son killing each other lasted for three generations.

Jiang Jian understood what Jiang Changsheng was implying. He said helplessly, “I’m just anxious for Che’er. He reminds me of my brother. I’m worried that he’s in a worse state than my brother. At the very least, my father deliberately did not extend his life to give my brother a chance. Right now, the Emperor is still in his prime. He doesn’t have to die to pass on the throne.” At the mention of Jiang Ziyu, Jiang Changsheng fell silent.

His son was the best. He knew the big picture.

However, from Emperor Shuntian’s point of view, he did not do anything wrong. He was still alive, and he still had ambitions.. Why should he give up his position?
