“That exaggerated? Is it possible that it’s an exaggeration?”

Bai Qi looked at Yu Yanyi and clicked her tongue in wonder.

Yu Yanyi shook her head and said, “There were a lot of witnesses. At present, the Sword God has entered the Wei Province.”

After Jiang Changsheng heard that, he became interested in the Sword God. This person seemed to be quite strong.

He called out the incense points.

[Current incense points: 6,800,873]

The battle with the Universe realm expert had increased Jiang Changsheng’s incense D0ints bv a lot. and he was about to earn back the incense D0ints he

had used to bless Hua Jianxin.

“I want to know how powerful the Sword God Yu Yanyi mentioned is?”

[Requires 20,000 incense points. Do you wish to continue?]

No!

Not bad.

Could it be that the Sword God was the second most powerful person in the continent other than him?

A Universe realm expert was only worth 10,000 incense points.

Jiang Changsheng sighed silently. He originally thought that Xiansheng Grotto-heaven ruled this continent, but from the looks of it, it was indeed the case. However, in terms of personal strength, the top experts in Xiansheng Grotto-heaven could not be ranked in the top three.

In first place was Jiang Changsheng. The Three Grotto-heaven realm was worth one million incense points. In second place was that mysterious expert worth 90,000 incense points. In third place was the Sword God who was worth 20,000 incense points.

Of course, that was only one person. There were more experts who were worth more than 20,000 incense points.

Jiang Changsheng asked, “He has already entered the Wei Province, but he did not kill anyone. From the looks of it, he is here for me?”

At that moment, there were still many people who still regarded the original thirteen states as the real Great Jing. There were now 49 states in the dynasty, but martial arts resources were concentrated in the original thirteen states. This was also the Emperor’s strategy to prevent other states from being stronger than the original thirteen states.

Yu Yanyi nodded and said, “It’s very likely. Rumor has it that the Sword God likes to challenge all kinds of experts in the world, and he is heading towards the Si Province. You can’t be careless.”

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Alright, thank you for your reminder, Miss

Seeing that Jiang Changsheng’s attitude was still casual, Yu Yanyi did not say anything else. She had already depicted the sword momentum of the Sword God, but Jiang Changsheng still did not take it to heart. This meant that he could also do this.

Yu Yanyi did not leave immediately. Instead, she chatted with Jiang Changsheng about the current situation of the Fuvue Family.

With the Emperor’s support, the Fuyue Family obtained many conveniences. Even though they did not enjoy the resources of several dynasties alone, at least they felt sincerity. They were clearly not betting on Great Jing’s present situation, but on its future.

The Fuyue Family was preparing to organize a martial arts convention to compare notes, and Yu Yanyi hoped that Longqi Temple would send someone there as a representative. They did not need the disciples of Longqi Temple to take action. They only want them to give the Fuyue Family face so that they could continue with such a martial arts convention in the future.

Yu Yanyi was very happy that Jiang Changsheng had no objections. She did not dare to expect Jiang Changsheng to personally go. However, if Longqi Temple were to send a representative, it would reduce the gossip in the martial arts world of Great Jing and the relationship between the two Holy Lands would not become sensitive.

After chatting for a while longer, Yu Yanyi left.

Jiang Changsheng continued to pay attention to Jiang Jian’s breakthrough.

It was not until evening that Jiang Jian finally broke through and became a True God. He was extremely excited as he stood in the medicinal cauldron and looked up at the sky as he roared. In that instant, everyone in the capital could hear him.

That night, Jiang Ziyu and Jiang Xiu came to visit. When they learned that Jiang Jian had become a True God, they were over the moon.

Especially Jiang Ziyu.

“Hahahaha, as expected of my son. A twenty-nine-year-old god. This is something even the Chao Sects dares not imagine!”

Jiang Ziyu was so proud of himself and he kept patting Jiang Jian on the shoulder.

Jiang Xiu was also very happy. He knew Jiang Jian very well and was aware that he did not have the heart of an emperor. Moreover, Jiang Jian was his younger brother and would naturally be his right-hand man in the future.

Jiang Changsheng sat under the tree and remained silent. He smiled as he watched the father and sons being happy.

Late at night, Jiang Xiu and Jiang Jian returned to their rooms to rest. The two brothers had a lot to talk about. Jiang Changsheng and Jiang Ziyu came to the edge of the cliff and drank while looking down at the night scenery of the capital.

Jiang Ziyu asked, “Father, that Sword God is extraordinary. There’s a high chance that he’s here for you. Are you ready?”

Jiang Changsheng said, “No matter how strong he is, I will be here. Whoever dares to come must be prepared to die.”

Hearing this, Jiang Ziyu smiled and said, “Father, I suddenly realized that you are quite ruthless. It seems like I inherited my ruthlessness from you.” “Are you mocking me?”

“How could I dare? Without father’s support, how could Great Jing have its present day?”

The father and son toasted each other and the atmosphere was relaxed.

Jiang Ziyu suddenly lamented, “If only Mother were still alive.”

Jiang Changsheng said, “She will have a good life in her next life. Everyone has their own fate, so you don’t have to regret it. Your talent is even better than your mother’s, and now that you have reached the Divine realm, you can follow Ping’an’s path and try to become a True God to extend your lifespan.”

Jiang Ziyu shook his head and said, “My talent is inferior to Senior Brother. Moreover, practicing martial arts requires a lot of time and energy. If I stop and concentrate on practicing martial arts, I might not necessarily succeed. If I fail, it will be a waste of time, so I might as well use my limited lifespan to make Great Jing stronger. Besides…”

Jiang Changsheng asked, “Is it because of Xiu’er?”

Jiang Ziyu nodded and lamented, “His talent is greatly lacking, so he probably can’t even reach the Divine realm in his lifetime. I can’t let him take charge of government affairs for me, while I selfishly pursue martial arts in order to extend my lifespan and be greedy for the throne for another hundred years.”

In the past, he had indeed thought of this method. The heart of an emperor was as deep as the sea, but after Hua Jianxin passed away, he did not want to personally send his son to his grave.

Jiang Changsheng was silent. He did not agree or object to Jiang Ziyu’s actions. He just decided to respect his wishes.

If Jiang Ziyu were to completely pursue martial arts, it would certainly tire Jiang Xiu out. It was indeed quite unacceptable for Jiang Xiu to just be the crown prince for the rest of his life and then die. Therefore, Jiang Ziyu decided to give up martial arts and use his remaining time to expand and consolidate Jiang Xiu’s territory so that he could better take over.

Since ancient times, the imperial family had been the most heartless. Normally, emperors valued the throne more than family ties, so it was rare for Jiang Ziyu to have such thoughts.

Jiang Changsheng’s alchemy skills were not considered extraordinary. Coupled with the restrictions of the martial arts world, he could only watch the life and death of others. He was still not strong enough to do everything as he pleased.

That night, the father and son chatted for a long time.

The Sword God was coming!

The news quickly spread throughout Great Jing, and legends about the Sword God quickly surfaced, attracting heated discussions in the forty-nine states.

A peerless expert from 200 years ago appeared out of nowhere and challenged the Dao Ancestor of Great Jing!

Countless martial artists were excited and rushed to the capital of Si Province to watch the show.

Even though the Sword God was traveling in the air, his steps were very fast. The distance between each step was a thousand feet, and he was getting closer and closer to Si Province.

Above the capital, above the sea of clouds, Jiang Changsheng was sparring with Jiang Jian. Jiang Jian held a three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand, and he was extremely domineering. However, no matter how he attacked, he could not hurt Jiang Changsheng.

Even though Jiang Changsheng was going easy on him, he would still spar with him. Only in this way could he teach him.

Jiang Changsheng had already restrained himself, but his punches and kicks still made Jiang Jian feel uncomfortable.

In less time than it would take for an incense stick to burn, Jiang Jian gave up.

The two of them then returned to the courtyard.

Jiang Jian sat on the ground, panting heavily. He was covered in sweat, but Jiang Changsheng looked calm and collected.

He put his hands on the ground and asked curiously, “Grandmaster, I’ve never seen you train your body, but why are you so strong?”

Bai Qi smiled and replied, “The Dao Ancestor has a high realm. Even if he did not specialize in body tempering, his strength is not something you can compare to. Have you heard of a True Qi realm body cultivator killing a True God?”

Jiang Jian felt that it made sense.

Jiang Changsheng said, “In half a year’s time, you can accompany the representatives sent from Longqi Temple to the martial arts convention held by the Fuyue Family. If someone insists on sparring with you, you can do so, but you have to know your limits and not steal the limelight.”

When Jiang Jian heard that, he was pleasantly surprised and asked excitedly, “Didn’t you say that only when I am in the Golden Body realm can I go down the mountain?

“That is the case if you go down the mountain to fight against foreign enemies. The martial arts world of Great Jing is not a foreign enemy. After you leave, you have to come back and continue to practice martial arts.”

“Alright!”

Jiang Jian grinned, his eyes full of expectation.

Martial artists were competitive to begin with. How could Jiang Jian reject an opportunity to display his strength?

Jiang Changsheng sat down and began to cultivate.

There was no survival reward for sparring with Jiang Jian. Perhaps it was because Jiang Jian did not have the intention to kill, so it was not a calamity.

Bai Qi lamented, “There are more and more martial artists in the capital. It seems like the Sword God is coming soon.”

Yu Yanyi praised the Sword God so much that she could not wait to see Jiang Changsheng fight against him.

Jiang Jian nodded and said, “Indeed, there is an aura of a True God in the capital. I reckon that he is from the Fuyue Family and also wants to witness the battle.”

Jiang Changsheng closed his eyes and said, “He’s almost here. In three days at most.”

He could already sense the powerful sword intent of the Sword God!

He was indeed very powerful!

He was also looking forward to this battle.

At that time, how should they fight?

Outside the Si Province, farmers, travelers, and martial artists in the mountains looked up at the spectacular scene in the sky.

Countless swords crisscrossed in the air, forming a long dragon. At a glance, it was impossible to count how many swords there were, and the end could not be seen. In front of the group of swords, a figure stepped forward in the air. It was the man with the sword basket that Xu Tianji and the others had met before.

The Sword God!

He seemed to be walking slowly, but he covered a thousand feet with a single step. The group of swords behind him followed closely behind, making it a spectacular sight.

If one were to look carefully, they would notice that the mighty sword energies were like a tornado that surrounded it.

The Sword God suddenly raised his hand and took out a letter from his pocket. He threw it forward and a sword suddenly shot out from behind him. It pierced through the letter and disappeared at the end of the horizon at an extremely fast speed.

The sword crossed mountains at an outstanding speed, passing by the cities in the Si Province and flying into the capital. It flew all the way towards Longqi Temple. The soldiers guarding the city saw the sea of clouds being torn apart, but they did not manage to capture the sword.

Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes. The sword was flying towards the courtyard he was in.

Jiang Jian seemed to have sensed something and suddenly opened his eyes as his pupils constricted.

So fast!

Just as he was about to stand up, Jiang Changsheng raised his hand and stretched out two fingers. The sword then changed its direction and flew into his fingers.

Pieces of leaves fell from the Earth Spirit Tree, all cut off by the Sword Qi.

Jiang Changsheng took off the letter on the sword and opened it.

Jiang Jian and Bai Qi immediately came over.

“The Dao Ancestor of Great Jing, I have been obsessed with martial arts my entire life. I heard that the Dao Ancestor’s martial arts are world-renowned. Soon, I will challenge you with the strongest Sword Dao that I have spent my entire life pondering. I hope that you will be prepared..

Jiang Jian read the letter with a solemn expression. The words on the letter also contained a trace of sharp sword intent..
