Chapter 303: Jiang Xuannian, Jiang Xuanzhen

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Jiang Changsheng’s memories were stirred by Mu Lingluo, and he began to talk about his encounter with Hua Jianxin.

Back then, Hua Jianxin was still a righteous White-robed Guard. She was pulled out by Chen Li to deal with the evil disciples. As a result, she encountered a scheme in the court. Speaking of which, it involved Eunuch Li. Who would have expected that after the grudge dissipated many years later, they could still chat and laugh in a courtyard?

Speaking of the past, scenes surfaced in front of Jiang Changsheng’s eyes. Countless old friends had gone through reincarnation.

Mu Lingluo listened attentively. She heard from Bai Qi that Jiang Changsheng rarely went down the mountain. However, from the looks of it, he had experienced many stories even if he did not go down the mountain.

Perhaps it was those hardships that forced him not to go down the mountain.

Speaking of Jiang Ziyu, Jiang Changsheng became even more upbeat. His tone was even slightly prideful, allowing Mu Lingluo to see another side of him. While Jiang Changsheng was recalling the past, the Emperor in Shuntian City was having a headache.

In the imperial study.

Jiang Han’s expression was gloomy. He picked up the memorial and tore it up.

The God of Thieves stood in front of the table and said, “Your Majesty, King Zhou is still waiting for your reply. He said that as long as you don’t return, he will stay in Shuntian.”

Jiang Han said in a deep voice, “Is he threatening me?”

The God of Thieves did not answer. This was a conflict between the Emperor and his relatives. He did not dare to interrupt. He could stay until today because he knew his limits.

Jiang Han took a deep breath and asked, “How is the Crown Prince?”

The God of Thieves answered, “His Highness the Crown Prince is cultivating.”

“Cultivating?”

Jiang Han was stunned, and his expression became strange.

The God of Thieves said helplessly, “That’s right, he’s cultivating. He has many Daoist priests in his mansion who specialize in the path of cultivation. If you hadn’t sent someone to keep an eye on him, I think he might have gone to look for the Dao Ancestor.’

Many people did not understand Jiang Han’s actions of restraining the Crown Prince. Only he knew that he had taken advantage of Jiang Ye’s trip outside and sent someone to assassinate him. It was precisely because he had done so much that he was worried.

Jiang Han snorted and said, “How can cultivation be so easy to pursue? The Dao Ancestor is just strong enough. With his talent, it’s impossible for the Dao Ancestor to accept him if he were to look for him. If he could open his divine eyes the moment he was born, I would have sent him to Longqi Mountain.” Speaking of this, he felt helpless.

Jiang Jian and Jiang Che’s son had all opened their third eye. Their deeds had long spread out and the people loved to talk about them, which had also added a sense of divinity to the imperial power.

Jiang Han said, “Send someone to investigate those priests in his residence.

Also, call my great-grandson here.”

“Yes!”

The God of Thieves immediately retreated.

Jiang Han sighed and muttered, “Father, I suddenly begin to understand you.”

He was getting more and more tired. He had ambitions, but he could not show off his skills. He felt extremely aggrieved.

However, he was different from Jiang Liu. He would not give up!

After the time for an incense stick to burn, a young man quickly walked into the imperial study.

“Grandfather, what’s the matter with calling me?”

Even though the young man was young, his facial features were handsome and his clothes were exquisite. The moment he saw him, Jiang Han smiled.

Jiang Han beckoned for the young man to come to him and hug him on his thigh.

“Did you train well today?”

Jiang Han asked with a smile. Whenever he was bored, he liked to look for his grandson. The moment he saw his grandson, his mood improved. It was also because of his grandson’s existence that he was unwilling to give up. He was not only working hard for himself, but also for his grandson.

The young Jiang Xuannian blinked and said, “Yes, I’ve worked hard.”

Jiang Han smiled and said, “It seems like you didn’t work hard at all and secretly played again. Who did you go to play with?”

Jiang Xuannian spread out his hands and said, “As expected, I can’t hide it from

Grandfather. Xuanzhen is too adorable. I can’t help but look for him.”

Jiang Han said helplessly, “Xuanzhen is only a few months old. You have to take good care of your brother.”

“Imperial Grandfather, I will definitely take good care of him, but I have a favor to ask of you.”

“What is it?”

“Mother wants to bring Xuanzhen and I to Longqi Temple to submit a petition. What do you think…”

Jiang Xuannian asked carefully. The Crown Prince and the Crown Prince Consort warned him to speak carefully. His grandfather seemed to care about the Dao Ancestor very much.

As his father cultivated, he had heard his father flatter the Dao Ancestor since he was young. Therefore, he yearned to meet the Dao Ancestor.

Hearing this, Jiang Han frowned.

He did not object to his grandson going to see their ancestor, but he was worried that something would happen on the way.

Seeing Jiang Xuannian’s expectant gaze, Jiang Han’s heart softened and he said, “Then go ahead. I will send someone to escort the three of you.”

“That’s great. Grandfather treats me the best.”

“It’s good that you know. You will be the Emperor in the future. Play less on normal days. Xuanzhen will have someone to take good care of him.”

Snow fluttered and covered the mountains. Qi Yuan, who had been conferred the title of Saint Qi, was currently meditating in front of a Daoist temple. The snow had piled up on him, making him look like a snow sculpture, but he did not move.

A yellow-robed man quickly walked over and rubbed his hands. “Master, when are we leaving? This snow is really strange. I can’t believe I feel cold with my strength. ”

Qi Yuan did not speak, but his voice sounded. “Wait a few more years. Didn’t I tell you not to set foot in this mountain forest? But you insisted on coming. You deserve to feel cold.’

The yellow-robed man grinned and said, “Aren’t I worried about Master?” Qi Yuan did not continue the conversation.

The yellow-robed man blew air into his palms and said, “Master, what are your plans for the future? Right now, there are statues of the Dao Ancestor everywhere in Great Jing. Should you return to Longqi Temple to look for the Dao Ancestor?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and the snow on his body turned into mist. With him as the center, the snow began to melt, and this phenomenon spread extremely quickly. In less than five breaths, the snow on the mountains melted and turned into a majestic hot mist that filled the mountain forest.

The yellow-robed man was frightened and immediately knelt down.

Qi Yuan stared at him and said, “An Chang, why won’t you change?”

The yellow-robed man named An Chang said in fear and trepidation, “I am also thinking for master’s sake. For the sake of promoting the Dao Ancestor Sect, you have traveled the human world for two hundred years. When can you rest?

My heart aches for you.”

Qi Yuan frowned and said, “Do you feel sorry for me, or do you want to please the Dao Ancestor?”

An Chang was embarrassed and did not know how to answer.

“You are the most talented and perceptive disciple in my sect, but your heart is never calm. You always think of using your crooked brain. Forget it, you can leave. From now on, our mentor-student relationship will be severed!”

Qi Yuan said with an indifferent expression. An Chang felt even more terrified when he heard that and hastily apologized.

An Chang did not expect that his casual test would provoke his master to chase him out.

“There’s no need to say anything else. On the account of your contribution to the Dao Ancestor Sect and your care for me, I’ll give you this brocade bag. It contains the Dao Ancestor’s spells and can help you tide through this crisis.”

Qi Yuan threw a brocade bag in front of An Chang.

An Chang looked up and their eyes met. He knew that his master had made up his mind.

He gritted his teeth and said, “In any case, you will always be my master.”

With that said, he kowtowed three times, picked up the brocade bag, and left. He quickly flew to the horizon and disappeared.

Qi Yuan looked in the direction he left and muttered, “You’re too ambitious and think that you’ve concealed yourself well. Little do you know that your fate is not enough. If you can stop in time, that brocade bag will be your life-saving straw. If you can’t, your bones will be buried in the burial grounds of mortals.” He sighed and slowly closed his eyes. He continued to comprehend fate and heaven and earth.

Ever since he created the Dao of Civil and Martial Arts, he did not rest. Instead, he continued to research new martial arts techniques. He felt that the Dao of Civil and Martial Arts was only a foundation and there should be more profound martial arts techniques that could stem from it.

Year 8 of the De Huang Era.

On the day of the new spring, Qing’Er came to visit.

Jiang Changsheng was preparing for the festivities in the courtyard when Qing’er came to him and said, “Dao Ancestor, the Crown Prince Consort has brought her grandson and the prince to visit you. She has also brought many generous gifts. Do you want to see her?”

Bai Qi’s eyes brightened as she asked, “What generous gift? Is there anything to

Qing’er rolled her eyes and said, “Can I open the gifts in advance?” Jiang Changsheng hesitated for a moment and said, “Let them in.”

Qing’er nodded and turned to leave.

Venerable Bai was teaching Jiang Tianming, but Jiang Tianming’s mind was not on his teachings. He asked curiously, “Great-grandfather, is the great-grandson my great-grandnephew?”

Jiang Changsheng said, “After they come in, you should address me as Dao Ancestor.”

Jiang Tianming nodded and looked at the entrance of the courtyard with anticipation.

It was boring to train in martial arts. It was not easy for him to meet his family members, so he naturally looked forward to meeting them. Ever since the capital had been moved, there had been no more members of the Jiang Family in Jingcheng. If he did not know that his great-grandfather was his family member, he would have gone down the mountain to look for the Jiang Family.

After a while, the Crown Prince Consort came with a baby in her arms, followed by a young man. It was Jiang Xuannian.

It was her first time meeting the Dao Ancestor, and the Crown Prince Consort was very nervous. Jiang Xuannian was also very nervous.

When the Crown Prince Consort saw a wolf, a fire crow, Nagas, and White

Dragons in the courtyard, her beautiful face turned deathly Dale from fright.

However, she mustered her courage and went to Jiang Changsheng to bow.

“No need to be so polite.”

Jiang Changsheng said. An invisible force made the Crown Prince Consort unable to kneel. She was secretly shocked and hastily said, “I am here not only on behalf of us, but also to convey my regards to you on behalf of His Majesty and the Crown Prince. His Majesty has brought your favorite fruit brew from the era of the previous emperor.”

“Xuannian, kneel down and worship the Dao Ancestor.”

Hearing his mother’s words, Jiang Xuannian hurriedly knelt down like a little adult.

Jiang Tianming immediately went up to him, making him tremble in fright.

In front of Jiang Xuannian, Jiang Tianming was much shorter. He looked like Jiang Xuannian’s younger brother, and their facial features were somewhat similar, especially the birthmark.

Jiang Tianming smiled proudly and said, “I am your great-granduncle. Why aren’t you bowing to me?”

Jiang Xuannian was stunned. Unconvinced, he said, “But you look younger than me. You’re lying.”

The Crown Prince Consort thought of something, and her expression changed drastically as she berated, “Xuannian, hurry up and kneel down to your great-granduncle. Don’t be rude!”

Hearing this, Jiang Xuannian was stunned. He looked at Jiang Tianming in disbelief, but he still knelt down obediently.

Jiang Tianming felt even more complacent.

Seeing the younger generation frolicking, Jiang Changsheng also found it interesting. He said, “Tianming, bring him to the side to play. Lingluo, help take care of the little imperial grandson.”

When Mu Lingluo heard that, she immediately walked over and took the young

Jiang Xuanzhen.

The Crown Prince Consort breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Jiang Changsheng gratefully..
