Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hearing Jiang Changsheng’s words, Emperor Shuntian was overwhelmed with emotions. He suddenly understood Jing Taizong’s heroism and his father’s tenacity.
It felt so good to have someone to back you up!
Emperor Shuntian took a deep breath and said, “Then I have to reject him. Great Jing is expanding in all aspects, including martial arts. With the True Martial Pavilion you built and the Amazing Fate Chamber of Commerce’s connections at the ocean, we don’t need the Floating Island at all. Instead, they need us.”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said nothing else.
Bai Qi teased, “Little Emperor, when are you going to enter the ocean?”
Emperor Shuntian pondered for a moment and said, “In another ten years, I do want to establish myself in the ocean. Instead of fighting my way up, why don’t I develop a maritime army? Not only can I gather resources from the ocean, but I can also be a trump card in the future. I can even surround the continent through the ocean and conquer the continent!”
He began to talk incessantly about his plan. In this courtyard, he was at ease. He was not afraid that his plan would be spread out. Even if it was spread out, it would be fine because his plan was an open plan!
He wanted to build a large number of teleportation arrays and troops on the ocean to garrison on an island. In the future, he would surround the Dragon Vein Continent and continuously oppress it, cutting off the connection between the various dynasties and the forces in the ocean. Ultimately, he would surround it and fight, devouring the continent in one fell swoop.
Now, it was obvious that the development of the ocean was better than that of the Dragon Vein Continent. Not only in martial arts, but also in production. As long as the connection between the various dynasties and the ocean was cut off, the gap between the various dynasties and Great Jing would only increase.
Jiang Changsheng did not give his opinion as he listened to Emperor Shuntian’s empty thoughts. This plan sounded good, but it also had many flaws. However, this was the case for any plan. Emperor Shuntian would use decades to pave the way for this plan. Looking at it decades later, perhaps the many flaws would no longer exist.
As long as Emperor Shuntian dared to think, Great Jing would have a future.
When Jiang Ziyu wanted to double the territory of Great Jing, many people dared to believe it. After dozens of years, Great Jing had changed from thirteen states to ninety-nine states. Therefore, many things could not be judged from the current point of view.
Emperor Shuntian chatted for a long time before he left.
A few days later, a powerful burst of true qi erupted in the capital, but it soon disappeared.
The envoy from the Floating Island was furious when he was rejected, but in the end, he endured it and did not dare to attack the capital.
Great Jing was no longer the same as before. There was no need for Jiang Changsheng to take action. If a True God were to cause trouble in the capital, he would be courting death.
As for Golden Body realm experts, they did not dare to come. All of them cherished their lives.
For the commoners, the Dao Ancestor was like a living Bodhisattva. However, in the eyes of martial artists in the Golden Body realm and above, the Dao Ancestor was a killing god, so for them, Great Jing’s Si Province was a restricted area!
3rd year of the Shuntian Era.
On the day of the new spring, Emperor Shuntian did not follow Renzong’s example and invite the lords of the affiliated dynasties and holy lands to the palace as guests. Instead, he came to the courtyard of Longqi Mountain alone. He brought good wine, delicacies, and snacks, filling the stone table to the brim. He even asked the White-robed Guards to bring a large amount of specially-fed beef to White Dragon.
Jiang Changsheng naturally understood what he meant by deliberately expressing goodwill. However, he had to admit that this kid was very thoughtful and made him feel comfortable.
Unlike previous years, this year’s spring day was exceptionally lively. With Bai Qi and Emperor Shuntian present, the sounds in the courtyard never stopped. Jiang Changsheng suddenly understood why the old man in his previous life looked forward to the children returning home for the New Year.
He was used to peace and quiet, but it was not a bad thing to be lively once in a while.
Jiang Changsheng tasted the pastries. They tasted pretty good and reminded him of the young Jiang Yu. However, he had long forgotten what the pastries from a hundred years ago tasted like.
The Sword God was also drinking and was in a good mood. This was only because Emperor Shuntian was frantically bootlicking him, claiming that there were countless martial artists in Great Jing who admired him. Emperor Shuntian even listed some top scholars. The Sword God was greatly pleased when he heard that, but he could only drink and pretend to be indifferent.
“In the future, if Senior Sword God is willing to come forward, I will hold a grand event for you to discuss swordsmanship with the continent. How about it? A grand event specially created for swordsmen. The final winner will be conferred the title of Sword Saint, second only to the Sword God…”
Emperor Shuntian spoke with unusual enthusiasm. He was obviously drunk. He did not even care to maintain etiquette in front of Jiang Changsheng and began to use his hands and feet. At that moment, he looked like a real teenager.
After all, he was only thirteen years old.
Jiang Changsheng looked at Emperor Shuntian with a smile and suddenly felt that he was quite adorable.
The fireworks in the capital blossomed, and the people in front of them toasted each other, feeling very happy.
In Jiang Changsheng’s opinion, this night was a beautiful night that he had not had in twenty years.
After the New Year, Emperor Shuntian clearly had more fighting spirit. In the morning court, all the officials found that he had an additional domineering aura. He was still young, but he had become bold in many important decisions, unlike Renzong who was overcautious.
True Dragon!
This form of address gradually spread from the mouths of officials to the mouths of merchants, to the mouths of the commoners of the continent, and even to the ears of the various dynasties.
Countless dynasties were secretly resentful. Why were the emperors of Great Jing always so outstanding? Why did they not give birth to a fatuous ruler? In any dynasty, there would always be an incompetent ruler. It had been more than a hundred years since Great Jing appeared, and there did not seem to be a real incompetent ruler. It had to be known that the reason why the originally expanding Great Qi stopped was because of the change in the imperial power and the emergence of an emperor who only knew how to have fun.
Great Jing was getting better and better, and so was Longqi Temple.
Under Qing’er’s governance, more and more good seedlings were unearthed, and the overall strength of the disciples improved steadily.
In the blink of an eye.
Half a year passed by.
Song Li came from Yu State to visit Emperor Shuntian.
In the imperial study.
Song Li’s expression was unsightly as he said, “Your Majesty, my men found out that the Thousand South Ocean Sect is currently gathering a large number of disciples to the Donghai Dynasty. I heard that there’s also the Luo Sect. Like the Thousand South Ocean Sect, the Luo Sect has Grotto-heaven realm experts.
I even found out that the Sect Master of the Luo Sect went to pay a visit to the Red Moon Ancestor who ranked second in Tianhai. He came out of seclusion at the end of last year and it’s very likely that he has reached the legendary Two Grotto-heaven realm. In other words, he’s very likely to be the most powerful existence in Tianhai. If the Red Moon Ancestor joins hands with the Thousand South Ocean Sect and the Luo Sect, Great Jing will be in danger!”
Emperor Shuntian frowned. He put down the memorial and asked, “How big is the gap between Two Grotto-heaven and One Grotto-heaven? Do you think the Dao Ancestor who easily defeated a One Grotto-heaven realm expert has reached the Two Grotto-heaven realm and can withstand the combined forces of three Grotto-heaven realm experts?”
Song Li forced a smile and said, “How would I know? I’m only here to pass on information. I didn’t use the Ten Thousand Mile Condor because I was afraid of being intercepted.”
Of course, that was only one reason. The second reason was that Song Li was afraid of death and wanted to hide in the capital.
There were countless experts in the Thousand South Ocean Sect, and he had already learned that Tian Renfeng had sent people to search for him. It was impossible to hide the fact that he had built a navy for Great Jing.
“I understand. You may leave.” Emperor Shuntian waved his hand.
Song Li hesitated and said, “My health has not been good recently and I wish to recuperate in the estate. I wonder…”
Emperor Shuntian rolled his eyes and nodded.
Song Li hastily thanked Emperor Shuntian and turned to leave. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and revealed a smile.
“Thousand South Ocean Sect, come and court death!”
Song Li thought smugly, and his eyes were filled with expectation.
That day, Emperor Shuntian personally found Jiang Changsheng and informed him of this matter.
Jiang Changsheng expressed that he understood. Emperor Shuntian did not ask further and chose to believe the old ancestor.
After he left, Jiang Changsheng looked in the direction of the Donghai Dynasty and activated the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth. Almost instantly, he saw the Donghai Dynasty and began to search quickly.
It was one thing to see the Donghai Dynasty, but it was another thing to search carefully.
He decided to search from the seaside and looked along the coastline. Soon, he saw a large number of ships with many figures floating in the air. They were True Gods.
Jiang Changsheng hesitated if he should shoot them to death right now. On second thought, it would easily alert the enemy.
After those three Grotto-Heaven Realm experts took action, he would continue to harvest.
He looked at them for a while before he retracted his gaze.
Bai Qi curiously asked, “Your eyes are shining. Are you looking at something? What martial arts technique is that? Can you see very far away?”
Jiang Changsheng calmly said, “Do you believe that I can see the end of the world?”
“Yes, I do!”
Bai Qi immediately answered and then came over to lick Jiang Changsheng’s hand. Jiang Changsheng immediately pushed her away. She was not sad or angry and obediently walked to the side and laid down.
The Sword God rolled his eyes at this scene. He felt that his Sword Dao had been insulted.
Months passed.
In the 4th year of the Shuntian Era, another lively spring had just passed.
On this day, Jiang Changsheng was cultivating when he suddenly sensed something. He opened his eyes, stood up, and began to stretch his muscles.
Seeing his attitude, Bai Qi curiously asked, “Could it be that the Grotto-Heaven realm experts the little emperor mentioned are about to arrive?”
Jiang Changsheng nodded in agreement.
The Sword God stood up with an expectant expression.
He was looking forward to the battle between Grotto-heaven realm experts.
Unlike the previous battle with the Human King, Jiang Changsheng had held back. This time, in the face of enemies, Jiang Changsheng would definitely kill them. Furthermore, there were more than one enemy, including a Two Grotto-heaven realm expert.
This battle would certainly allow him to obtain many insights.
At the end of the horizon, surging dark clouds slowly swept towards the capital, covering the mountains and rivers and also the huge meteorite, causing half of the city to fall into darkness.
Emperor Shuntian, who was dealing with affairs, suddenly felt as if a thorn was poking him between his eyebrows. It was the pain from his birthmark. He subconsciously rubbed it and began to feel uneasy.
He seemed to have thought of something. He immediately stood up and walked out of the imperial study.
The Head of Punishment suddenly appeared behind him and said, “It seems like the enemy is coming.”
Emperor Shuntian was worried. Even though Jiang Changsheng had agreed, would the attack of three Grotto-heaven realm experts harm the people of Great Jing?
In the mansion next to the palace, the white-haired and weak Human King walked out of the door. He looked up with great difficulty, and his eyes were filled with fear.
He sensed an extremely terrifying killing intent. It was even stronger than when the Dao Ancestor faced him.
Could he be an expert from overseas?
He began to worry for Great Jing. He did not want Great Jing to die the moment he imparted his strength to his successor..
