Chapter 621: Like Reality and Illusionary

Seeing that the atmosphere in the courtyard was somewhat gloomy, Bai Qi angrily said, “You’re still pretending to be obedient after taking advantage of me. How many cultivators can’t even reach the Immortal Emperor Realm? Master, I think he’s too arrogant. Throw him into the cycle of reincarnation and let him recultivate.”

Everyone could not help but laugh when she said that. Great Immortal Wang Chen waved his hand and said, “No, no. I have indeed gone too far. I will not dare to say such words again in the future.”

He wanted to glare at Bai Qi, but with Jiang Changsheng here, he held back.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “There is no Dao Ancestor today, only Daoist Master Changsheng.”

Everyone was touched by his words. It seemed like the Dao Ancestor really hoped that they could catch up and lessen their doubts.

As the wine and delicacies arrived, many tables were placed inside and outside the courtyard.

“Dao Ancestor, I’m here. I brought many good gifts today.”

A burst of laughter sounded. Everyone turned around and saw a person walking into the courtyard with quick steps. Some people who recognized him revealed startled expressions.

Zhang Ying!

Back then, in order to establish a connection with Jiang Changsheng, the branch head of the Amazing Fate Chamber of Commerce would visit Jiang Changsheng every once in a while and give him gifts.

Bai Qi was also stunned. This guy was still alive?

Mu Lingluo studied the Fate Dao, and when she saw the reason, she could not help but raise her eyebrows in shock.

What kind of technique was that?

Jiang Changsheng smiled and exchanged pleasantries with Zhang Ying.

After a while, an old man stepped into the courtyard. It was Eunuch Li, Li Taichun. He had assisted the first few emperors in the founding of Great Jing and later served Jiang Changsheng until he died of old age.

Only a few people remembered Eunuch Li, so his appearance did not cause any emotions.

When the Four Seas Sage appeared, Jiang Luo could not help but shout, “Master!”

The death of the Four Seas Sage had always been a knot in his heart. Even though he became stronger later on, he could not find his master’s soul. He did not expect to see the Four Seas Sage today.

Jiang Luo immediately came to the Four Seas Sage and hugged him excitedly.

The Four Seas Sage laughed and said, “Silly kid, how old are you? Why are you still crying?”

At that moment, a golden light descended from the sky. The Celestial Emperor had brought a group of Immortal Gods with him, and all of them were acquaintances of Jiang Changsheng.

Jiang Xiu, Jiang Tiansheng, Jiang Yi, Jiang Shan, Yang Che, Venerable Bai, Chen Li, and the rest landed on the ground. They smiled and cupped their hands to salute, diluting the gloomy atmosphere brought about by Jiang Luo.

Jiang Changsheng did not get up and smiled as he looked at them.

The white-haired Chen Li came to Jiang Changsheng’s side and said with a smile, “Dao Ancestor, who should I be today?”

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Chen Li, of course.”

Mu Lingluo stood up silently and made way for Chen Li. Seeing this, Ji Wujun and Yu Yanyi also stood up and talked to the others.

Chen Li did not refuse. After he sat down, he sighed and said, “If not for today, I would not dare to open this dusty memory.”

He had watched Jiang Changsheng grow up, so he knew best how terrifying the talent of the Dao Ancestor in this life was. He did not dare to think about that at all. He had always regarded himself as a second-generation disciple of the Dao Ancestor and his name was given by the Dao Ancestor. Very few people knew that he was the only close friend of the Dao Ancestor.

“At least today, you can open it. I still remember when we first met, you said I was the murderer,” Jiang Changsheng said with a smile.

When he heard him mention this, Chen Li’s face turned red.

The two of them began to talk about the first few years of the Great Jing.

After that, there were still old friends who came. They first came to greet Jiang Changsheng before retreating, not daring to squeeze in the courtyard.

Qing’er was stunned when she saw four people walking toward her from the tree-lined path. She could not believe her eyes.

Daoist Master Qingxu, Li Changqing, Meng Qiuhe, and Qing Ku.

“It has been many years since we last met. Qiu Shuang, do you still recognize us?” Daoist Master Qingxu asked softly as he held the horsetail whisk.

Qing’er turned around excitedly, wanting to tell Jiang Changsheng. Coincidentally, she met Jiang Changsheng’s gaze. When their eyes met, she understood many things and her heart calmed down.

She took a deep breath and went to welcome Daoist Master Qingxu and the rest.

Chen Li noticed this scene and lamented, “It seems real but also illusory. Such techniques are marvelous.”

Jiang Changsheng picked up a bowl of tea and said, “If you think it’s true, then it’s true. If you think it’s fake, then everything is an illusion.”

Those who came to this birthday banquet were all people who had interacted with Jiang Changsheng in his life. Some were still moving on the path of the Immortal Dao, while others had long gone with the reincarnation cycle. Those fake ones were naturally created by Jiang Changsheng. Not only was it to satisfy his nostalgia, but it was also to give the living a chance to fulfill their wishes.

There was another point. Jiang Changsheng could use the Formless and Invisible Freedom Technique to create these old friends with his memories. As long as his thoughts were still there, he could let these old friends who should not have existed live again. However, he was still hesitating about whether to do so.

Let’s enjoy the birthday celebration first.

Chen Li was also savoring the profundity of this. His intuition told him that the Dao Ancestor was teaching him something. If he could comprehend it, his future achievements would be indescribable.

The birthday banquet continued. Due to Jiang Changsheng’s instructions, there were not many common etiquettes for this birthday banquet. Everyone could enjoy the banquet and walk around and chat.

Many people present were reunited after a long separation. They put down their boring cultivation and tense work and came to the Dao Ancestor to relive the past. They discovered that they suddenly had a different state of mind.

Every blade of grass and tree on Longqi Mountain seemed to contain the will of the Great Dao.

Under the shade of the tree, the First Emperor of Great Jing, Jiang Yuan, and his empress sat in silence for a long time as they looked at the winding stream in front of them.

Ultimately, the Empress broke the silence and asked, “Do you regret it?”

Jiang Yuan revealed a helpless smile and said, “How many times have you asked? Naturally, I regret it. However, from my point of view, was I wrong? How powerless was I when I faced the Mahayana Dragon Tower?”

The Empress curled her lips and said with a smile, “The Mahayana Dragon Tower? If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten about them long ago. Just rejoice. If he hadn’t reincarnated into my stomach, would you be so lucky today and not suffer from reincarnation?”

Jiang Yuan was silent.

The mountain was bustling with activity, but they did not dare to go up for fear that others would know their identities.

How could the Dao Ancestor have parents?

Most importantly, they knew that they did not nurture the Dao Ancestor in this life. Moreover, their son was the reason why they could work in Hell. It was good to keep some affection in their hearts.

Jiang Yuan leaned against a tree trunk and looked down at Jingcheng from halfway up the mountain. He sighed and said, “It is really a blessing to be able to see the human world two million years later. I am very content right now and I don’t dare to have any extravagant hopes. Just because you and I got involved in the karma of his biological parents, we can be free and unfettered forever. I feel ashamed just thinking about it.”

The Empress did not say anything else. She felt the same way.

Jiang Yuan’s eyes gradually blurred as he lamented, “Jing no longer remembers the Martial Ancestor, but it will always remember the Dao Ancestor and his son, the Celestial Emperor.”

The higher the Celestial Emperor stood, the more upset he felt. It was not jealousy, but shame.

Although they both cared for their sons, Jiang Changsheng’s son could enjoy good fortune, and all his heirs after him could also enjoy good fortune, but for Jiang Changsheng, he could only suffer as his son.

He was well aware that if Jiang Changsheng were not the reincarnation of the Dao Ancestor, he would have died in the capital.

On the other side.

Jiang Changsheng, who was in the courtyard, also heard the conversation between his parents in this life. His heartstrings were stirred.

To be honest, he did not have deep feelings for his parents in this life, and it was even harder for him to like Jiang Yuan. Therefore, he did not visit them. It was not that he was heartless, but he was born with memories. If he were to talk about parents, he cared more about his parents in his previous life. In his previous life on Earth, he was ordinary, and his parents were also ordinary people. However, he had died and reincarnated before he could fulfill his filial piety.

He wondered how his parents spent the rest of their lives after his death in his previous life.

A day later.

The Longqi Mountain was still crowded and lively, but the Emperor, who had been guarding at the foot of the mountain, could not restrain himself.

He was the Emperor of Heavenly Jing, and this was Jingcheng, his territory. Did he not have the right to sit there?

Every time he wanted to go up the mountain, he saw that the white-robed man was also waiting. He could only endure it. He was also afraid of angering an existence he could not afford to provoke.

Unable to withstand it, the Emperor came to the man in white and carefully asked, “Senior, aren’t you going up?”

The white-robed man shook his head and said, “I am not qualified to go up. I am only responsible for guarding Longqi Mountain to prevent anyone from disturbing the birthday banquet.”

Just as the Emperor was about to ask more questions, a terrifying aura descended, startling him so much that he turned around.

A golden light sped over from the horizon, aiming for Longqi Mountain.

“Impudent!”

A cold snort sounded. Then, the Emperor widened his eyes in disbelief. A huge hand descended from the sky and grabbed the incoming golden light at an extremely fast speed.

So fast!

It was huge!

The Emperor looked at the huge hand in the sky. It was hard to imagine how huge it was. It was as if the Kunlun Field was a vat and someone was reaching into it from the outside. Even he, who had trained in the imperial branch of the Jiang Clan, was shocked by that visual shock.

“Dao Ancestor! I want to see you! Let go of me!”

A furious curse sounded from the huge hand and it immediately retracted.

“Let him in.”

As Jiang Changsheng’s voice sounded from Longqi Mountain, the huge hand trembled. After hesitating for a moment, the huge hand released its grip. A purple-robed man appeared. His robes were gorgeous and he did not look like someone in suffering. Without any obstruction, he immediately flew towards Longqi Mountain.

In the courtyard.

The Celestial Emperor glanced at Heaven Emperor Xuandao, who revealed a bitter smile. He was dissatisfied with the Jiang Clan. How did they do things?

Chen Li silently stood up and retreated to the side. Everyone inside and outside the courtyard stopped their conversation and looked at the purple-robed man flying towards them.

The purple-robed man quickly landed in the courtyard. Faced with the gazes of the mighty figures around him, his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He tried his best to adjust his state of mind and walked to Jiang Changsheng to kneel down. “I am Emperor Xuan Sun. Greetings, Dao Ancestor!”

Jiang Changsheng shook his teacup and remained silent.

The courtyard fell into a depressing silence, and everyone looked at him with dissatisfaction.

Emperor Xuan Sun looked up and gritted his teeth. “Dao Ancestor, please let the Heavenly Court ascend!”

The moment he said that, the Immortal Gods were all shocked. Even the Celestial Emperor was surprised. He thought that Emperor Xuan Sun was going to complain.

Jiang Changsheng looked at him and asked with a smile, “Why?”

“It has been two million years. The Taiyi Immortal Realm has accumulated too many irresolvable grudges. The Heavenly Court has no choice but to ascend. Otherwise, there will be internal strife in the Taiyi Immortal Realm one day!” Emperor Xuan Sun mustered his courage and said in a deep voice.
