Chapter 456: Future Leader of the Earth Immortals

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Changsheng chatted with Martial Ancestor Nirvana for a long time. However, he still had some doubts if Martial Ancestor Nirvana’s words were really sincere.

If Martial Ancestor Nirvana was that righteous, he would not have waited until now.

From the looks of it, Jiang Changsheng’s act of destroying the Dark Netherworld was the start of the Myriad Daos Era. Martial Ancestor Nirvana was afraid of the Martial Dao calamity and had no choice but to unite with the anomalies.

After returning to their temporary residence in the Divine Martial Realm, Jiang Changsheng did not think much about it. Regardless of whether what Martial

Ancestor Nirvana said was true or false. he was only a clone.

If a calamity were to happen, it would be Martial Ancestor Nirvana who would bear the brunt.

Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes. He was a clone and could not cultivate. What he had to do now was to preserve as much magic power as possible and think less.

However, in the following days, MO Wang, the Absolute Beginning Buddha, the Nine Yin Evil Ancestor, and other Great Dao Inheritors who had fought side by side with him came to visit Jiang Changsheng one after another, making him feel helpless.

At that moment, he seemed to have returned to many years ago, when he was still in the early stages of Great Jing.

Time passed by like a shuttle, year after year.

Heavenly Jing, Jingcheng, in the imperial garden of the palace.

The Emperor was currently drinking. He looked at the old eunuch and asked,

“Why has King Wei not made any movements recently?”

The old eunuch bowed and answered, “Reporting to Your Majesty, since the last time he went to the Heavenly Court, King Wei has not left his residence and has not made any requests.”

The Emperor smiled and said, “My brother has changed? Did he encounter something in the Heavenly Court?”

His smile was somewhat gloating. In the past, he had an extremely good relationship with Jiang Tiansheng. However, as Jiang Tiansheng became more and more domineering, he was also dissatisfied. However, he did not dare to voice his anger.

The old eunuch smiled and did not dare to continue the conversation.

The Emperor began to fall into a trance. The old eunuch knew what he was thinking and merely sighed in his heart.

If King Wei had recovered his senses, that would naturally be great. He was afraid that King Wei would remain numb to everything.

On the other side.

At the top of Spirit Mountain, inside a house.

Jiang Tiansheng sat at the table and looked at the mirror with a complicated expression.

All these years, he had not cultivated. He had been staring at the purple-robed man with mixed feelings. The more he looked at him, the more upset he felt.

After the purple-robed man returned to the Xiao Clan, he was expelled. His parents did not acknowledge him, and his brothers disdained him. He was treated as a dog and severely injured before he was expelled from the clan. When he saw that scene, Jiang Tiansheng felt elated. However, he was soon confused.

The purple-robed man’s future would be even more bumpy. No matter who he interacted with, he would be loathed, causing him to have more and more enemies. In just a few years, he went from a high-spirited prodigy of the Xiao Clan to a homeless prodigy that everyone hated.

Jiang Tiansheng knew that the other party’s talent was not inferior to his.

This prodigy had such a difficult life after he was abandoned by his aristocratic clan.

What did that mean?

This meant that talent was not the most important thing in this world. At the very least, it was not absolute.

He was confident in his talent, and thought that the people of the Kunlun Field should sacrifice themselves for him. But without the Jiang Family’s help, could his talents have reached this step?

The resources he obtained were brought by the Jiang Family, not by his hard work.

He had no right to ask the people of the Kunlun Field to sacrifice themselves for him. The one who was truly qualified to ask for this was the Dao Ancestor!

However, the little descendant…

Jiang Tiansheng had worshiped his ancestor since he was young and knew of his legendary deeds. He had never let the people of Heavenly Jing sacrifice themselves for him, nor did he hoard all the resources of the world for himself. He even propped Heavenly Jing up alone and created the Kunlun Field.

The Dao Ancestor possessed the ability to exile others. If others had such an ability, how should he deal with them if they were to exile him?

Jiang Tiansheng’s heart was in a mess as he stared at the purple-robed man in a daze.

At that moment, the voice of a White-robed Guard sounded from outside the building.

“King Wei, a person named Hu Yuan has come to visit you. He claims to be an old acquaintance of yours.”

Jiang Tiansheng subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he suddenly remembered who Hu Yuan was and his years of wandering around.

“Let him in.”

Jiang Tiansheng answered and kept the mirror aside. He knew that he could not continue to look at it. If he continued to look at it, he would definitely have an inner demon.

Not long after, footsteps sounded, accompanied by a burst of bright laughter.

“Hahaha, Tiansheng, long time no see!”

When Jiang Tiansheng heard that voice, he could not help but smile.

Hu Yuan pushed the door open and entered. He came to the table and sat down, looking travel-worn. He poured himself a cup of wine without any reservations.

Seeing his appearance, Jiang Tiansheng’s smile deepened.

Jiang Tiansheng teased, “I heard that you have a huge conflict with the Demon Supreme and even rejected the invitation of a Heavenly Lord of the Heavenly

Court. Did the Heavenly Court cause you any trouble? Those people value the

Heavenly Court’s reputation the most.”

Hu Yuan was still so young. His spirit had not been worn down by time. Instead, it had become even sharper.

He waved his hand and said, “Don’t mention it. They were just messing around.”

With that said, he stared at Jiang Tiansheng and said, “Brother, you don’t look right. Why? Are you in trouble?”

Jiang Tiansheng was stunned. He thought that Hu Yuan was here to ask for his help, but he did not expect Hu Yuan to care about him.

“I am just going through some troubles, but it’s nothing. I can resolve it.” Jiang Tiansheng shook his head and said. The difference in strength between him and Hu Yuan was too great. Hu Yuan would not understand what it meant to be exiled.

Hu Yuan stared at him and said, “There are always some difficult situations that people don’t want to talk about. However, I remember the you of the past.

You were passionate, just, kind, and full of lofty sentiments. You were someone I yearned to become. I even thought that you were a practitioner of Xianxia. You befriended people without looking at their background. When you saw injustice, you drew your sword and helped them. Now that I think about it, I admire you.”

Jiang Tiansheng’s smile disappeared. He understood what the other party meant. If it were before, he would have flown into a rage. However, after seeing the purple-robed man’s experience over the years, he fell silent.

With a cold expression, he said, “What’s the use of befriending people and enforcing justice? If I were exiled by some force one day and no one recognized me anymore, wouldn’t everything I’ve done be in vain?”

Hu Yuan stared at him and suddenly laughed out loud. The louder he laughed, the louder he became.

“What are you laughing at? Is it funny?” Jiang Tiansheng asked in disappointment.

As expected, they were not from the same world. The powers he had touched upon was beyond the other party’s understanding.

Hu Yuan restrained his smile and said, “Ask the people around the world. Other than the people you helped, who still remembers the former you? Isn’t this the power you mentioned?”

Jiang Tiansheng was stunned.

Hu Yuan added, “Those who commit evil will only bring about their own destruction. Blessings will always come if you form good relationships. Those who saved you in times of crisis, will you never forget that you were saved in times of despair?”

Jiang Tiansheng could not help but think of when the Dao Ancestor saved him. Even though he was afraid of the Dao Ancestor exiling him, he was naturally grateful to be saved.

“That’s right… How could I have forgotten…”

Jiang Tiansheng muttered to himself, but his eyes were confused. He added,

“There are really people who really have forgotten.”

Hu Yuan asked, “Has that person ever been as chivalrous as you?”

Jiang Tiansheng thought of the purple-robed man’s temper and immediately shook his head.

How could such a proud and supercilious person be chivalrous?

He felt much better.

It was an unprecedented comfort!

It was even more comfortable than seeing the miserable situation of the purple-robed man!

He had never been a selfish person. It was just that the humiliation and failure that the purple-robed man had given him was too deep. It was so deep that he thought that as long as he could gather the resources of the whole world and become stronger, he could surpass the other party.

This reason to comfort himself became an excuse for him to go to extremes.

“Can chivalry really be remembered forever…” Jiang Tiansheng muttered to himself.

Hu Yuan smiled and said, “Of course. Of course, once or twice won’t do. If you want to do good deeds, don’t worry about the future. This is the merit that the Dao Ancestor mentioned. Once you have enough merit, you can even become an immortal on the spot. There is more than just accumulating magic power.” Jiang Tiansheng’s eyes lit up and his mood became even more optimistic.

That’s right.

Didn’t he always want to be like the Dao Ancestor?

If he were to follow the path of the purple-robed man, wouldn’t he become exactly like him?

Between the Dao Ancestor and the purple-robed man, he naturally had to choose to become like the Dao Ancestor!

The more Jiang Tiansheng thought about it, the more excited he became. He began to drink in large gulps.

Hu Yuan noticed his change and revealed a smile.

Jiang Tiansheng took a deep breath and his temperament suddenly changed. He was no longer as gloomy as he had been all these years. He propped his thighs with his hands and looked at Hu Yuan. He asked curiously, “Hu Yuan, you have gone through far more difficult times than me, but why aren’t you…”

Hu Yuan smiled and said, “Because I am grateful. I am different from you. You were born in the Jiang Family and have a starting point that all living beings cannot reach. I was born in a village and even when I cultivated, I received the Dao Ancestor’s pity. Let’s not talk about anything else. Just how much merit does the Dao Ancestor have for creating the Mental Wander Realm? It is precisely because the Dao Ancestor sets an example that even though there is evil in this world, evil cannot defeat good.”

“Without the Dao Ancestor, not to mention this world, my words might not be pleasant to the ears just for your Jiang Family. Since ancient times, emperors have no familial ties. However, your Jiang Family is an exception. Ever since the Dao Ancestor rose up, there has been no such thing as fratricide. Think about it. You displayed your talents when you were young. If it were before the reign of the Dao Ancestor, could you have lived until adulthood? After all, you are not the eldest son of the first wife!”

Jiang Tiansheng listened attentively, and the more Hu Yuan spoke, the more enthusiastic he became.

Jiang Tiansheng was not angry when he saw that Hu Yuan was getting more and more unreasonable. Instead, he was even happier. He suddenly felt that he was more important to Hu Yuan than he had imagined.

If his friend had gone astray and held a high position, he did not have the courage to persuade him.

After Hu Yuan said that, he smiled when he saw Jiang Tiansheng looking at him.

There was no need to say anything more.

Jiang Tiansheng called for some good wine and the two of them drank for several hours.

Hu Yuan did not stay long. He was about to leave after drinking.

“You came here to persuade me?” Jiang Tiansheng was stunned. He thought that Hu Yuan had some troubles.

Hu Yuan walked to the door and stretched with his back facing him. The sunlight shone on him, causing Jiang Tiansheng to be in a daze.

Hu Yuan tilted his head and looked at him from the corner of his eyes. “I am the future leader of the Earth Immortals and you are a cultivator. If I don’t care about you, who will?”

“Let’s go. The next time I see you will be when I hold the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror!”

He waved his hand, leaped up, and left on a cloud.

Jiang Tiansheng followed him out of the room and smiled as he looked at his departing back.

“Leader of the Earth Immortals? Since you want to be one, I’ll have to increase the difficulty for you..”
