Chapter 307: The Way to Saving Great Jing

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“In the end, the imperial family is different from the common people because they control the lives of everyone under them.”

After Jiang Han said that, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at Jiang Changsheng. He knew that his words were somewhat treasonous, but he would not be happy if he did not spit it out.

At the same time, he was shocked.

He was already dead, so how could he be dragged here by his ancestor?

What kind of method was that?

Jiang Changsheng did not say anything. Instead, he pondered over Jiang Han’s words. Naturally, he did not agree with him. It was not only because of the vassal kings that the situation had deteriorated to this point. To be precise, the difference in martial strength was mainly due to luck.

Great Jing had achieved greatness due to luck, but he had also gone into a crisis due to luck.

It was the same for all human dynasties.

Jiang Changsheng suddenly thought of a question. Who founded the Luck Dynasty?

The establishment of a Luck Dynasty was definitely a double-edged sword. The strong could smoothen the weather, while the weak would fall quickly. Moreover, the birth of the concept of a Luck Dynasty had established the pattern of the division in the human race. Once a Luck Dynasty was established, it could rise rapidly. There were too many aristocratic families and sects that would elect people to build a dynasty.

Take the previous Chao Sects for example. They controlled many dynasties, but they did not become emperors because they did not want to bear the limit of their lifespan.

If one wanted to resolve Great Jing’s predicament, one had to break through the limit of the emperor’s fate. Otherwise, if even the problems were resolved today, such issues would continue to arise in the future.

If this could be accomplished, the position of emperor did not have to be passed down from generation to generation. He could be in power for hundreds of years before choosing a suitable descendant. Of course, there were hidden dangers to this. If the Emperor were to lose his mind, it would be a disaster.

In any case, there would always be good and bad sides.

If they abandoned the destiny of a Luck Dynasty, everyone in the world would probably resist. That was because the establishment of Luck Dynasties only had restrictions on emperors. It had to be said that the price of the establishment of a Luck Dynasty divided emperors and their people into two camps, making it impossible for the imperial power to leave the fate of luck.

Jiang Han felt uneasy when he did not hear his ancestor speak. He knew that he had angered his ancestor.

After all, Taizong was the son of their ancestor.

Alas!

Jiang Han’s heart ached. Taizong’s father was such a good person, while his father…

He felt that if he was Taizong, he could obtain better achievements!

Jiang Han mustered his courage and asked, “Ancestor, can you not question the current emperor?”

Jiang Changsheng said, “When did I say I was going to question him?”

Jiang Han was silent.

“Even if Great Jing is dead, what impact will it have on me?”

These words made Jiang Han reveal a bitter smile. He was afraid of this.

Jiang Changsheng said, “Although I don’t agree with you as a person, I do agree with your determination. You have not let Great Jing down.”

His words were not false. Although Jiang Han was too murderous, he had indeed benefited the common people. Every time he raided an estate, a portion of the gains would be distributed to the common people everywhere. A large number of his worshipers praised Jiang Han for that. Of course, there were also people who scolded him, but they were all people who had connections with aristocratic families and officials.

When Jiang Han heard this, endless sadness suddenly surged in his heart.

He had been wielding a butcher knife for so many years. At this moment, he suddenly felt the grievance of a child facing his elders. He wanted to vent everything. Even in front of his father, he did not have such emotions.

For a long time, no one knew about the pressure he had been under, and he did not dare to tell anyone.

However, he also understood the first half of the ancestor’s words. He was referring to his actions towards his seventh brother, Jiang Ye. However, he had also listened to his mother and the people around him. If he really hated Jiang Ye, he would have plenty of ways to deal with him.

He had cut off so many vassal kings, but he did not touch Jiang Ye in the slightest because he felt guilty.

“If you have something to say, just say it. Coming to this human world is a fate between you and I. After you say it, I’ll send you to Hell to reincarnate.”

Jiang Changsheng’s tone was indifferent. Under the light of the Ultimate Yang Divine Light, Jiang Han could not see his face, but his heart warmed.

At that moment, Jiang Han felt ashamed. He had thought of many possibilities, but he had never thought that there would be such an opportunity. He began to speak, saying everything very quickly, appearing very excited.

Jiang Changsheng listened patiently to Jiang Han’s story.

Everyone was multifaceted, and complexity was a human trait. He was willing to know more about Jiang Han.

Jiang Han was the catalyst for his deep thoughts about the essence of the Luck Dynasties. He felt that luck was a type of power of heaven and earth. If he could create such power of heaven and earth, could he save Great Jing by not limiting the emperor’s lifespan?

If he did that, the hidden danger would lie in the emperors and it would not be so unbalanced.

Jiang Han did not know what his ancestor was thinking. He told him everything that was on his mind. In any case, he was already dead so there was no burden.

After a long while.

After Jiang Han said what he wanted to say, he felt unprecedentedly carefree, as if he had returned to his youth. Most of what he said was his psychological feelings and he did not specifically blame anyone.

“Alright, you should be on your way.”

Jiang Changsheng waved his hand and sent Jiang Han into the underground world.

By the time Jiang Han came back to his senses, he had already arrived at the underworld. Looking at the mighty long line of souls in front of him, he felt disappointed.

However, disappointment came and went as quickly as it came.

There were no regrets in this life!

Thinking of this, Jiang Han smiled and began to look forward to the cycle of reincarnation.

After returning to the courtyard, Jiang Changsheng began to concoct pills. Some time later, news of the shocking changes in Shuntian also spread to Jingcheng.

On this day, Jiang Changsheng used the Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth to observe the Great Wilderness while listening to everyone talk about the court.

Jiang Han’s death had caused the Emperor to be furious. This was a scandal that had never happened in Great Jing. All the aristocratic families and sects shrank back, fearing that they would be suspected.

Taking advantage of this incident, the Emperor arrested many officials without restraint. Even though they were not guilty of the crime, during the period of imprisonment, new people were soon arranged to replace them, causing more and more people to have some complaints.

The Emperor used filial piety to gather power.

Ye Xun smiled and said, “It seems like our new emperor is not a mediocre person.”

Venerable Bai stroked his beard and said with a smile, “The Emperor will indeed find an opportunity, but it’s not enough. Let’s continue watching. If he can support Great Jing until Prince Xuanzhen grows up, Great Jing will become powerful.”

He still could not forget Jiang Xuanzhen.

He felt that Jiang Xuanzhen might very well bring about an opportunity for Great Jing to transform.

Chen Li shook his head and said, “It’s useless. He’s just a pawn on the surface. He can’t shake those huge beasts hiding in the dark.”

He was still pessimistic about the future of Great Jing because he had been in the court for two hundred years. There were many problems that could not be said with just talking.

“Compared to the matters in the court, I am more puzzled about another matter. Recently, more and more martial artists have come from the endless ocean. I wonder who is behind this.” After Venerable Bai said that, he looked at Jiang Changsheng on the Earth Spirit Tree.

Bai Qi smiled and said, “Old man, don’t ask around. The waters are deep.”

They were all believers of Jiang Changsheng. They knew that Jiang Changsheng was the one who allowed them to enter the Mental Wander Realm, but they could not tell Venerable Bai that.

Venerable Bai was not a worshiper of Jiang Changsheng. Even though he revered Jiang Changsheng, it had yet to reach the point of a worshiper. His age and knowledge made it difficult for him to truly have faith in someone.

Jiang Tianming nodded and said, “That’s right, master. I advise you not to inquire too much.”

Venerable Bai was stunned. He shook his head and laughed. He was right.

It was the Dao Ancestor.

Since it was done by the Dao Ancestor, it proved that he would not give up on Great Jing.

Chen Li stood up and smiled. “The martial artists from the ocean can gather together and wait for Great Jing to transform.”

He bowed to Jiang Changsheng and turned to leave.

Even though he was far away from the court, his heart was still there. He still had many eyes and ears in the court.

After he left, Venerable Bai did not stay long and followed him down the mountain. Soon, the courtyard fell into silence. They either trained or entered the Mental Wander Realm.

Jiang Changsheng sat on the tree and was slightly surprised. He narrowed his eyes as if he had seen something.

Among the mountains, many ferocious beasts were entrenched here. The largest of them was taller than the mountains, making it a spectacular sight. Huang Tian and Hei Tian laid on the mountain peak and enjoyed the sunlight.

At the same time, they trained and strengthened themselves.

Their demon clan had begun to take shape, but most of the beasts they recruited were young ferocious beasts. They were either expelled by their race or wandered alone. There were more than five hundred of them.

Huang Tian seemed to have sensed something. He opened his eyes and looked up at the horizon.

Hei Tian opened his eyes and asked, “Brother, what’s wrong?”

Huang Tian did not answer. Hei Tian followed its gaze and looked over. The scenery at the end of the horizon was pleasant and there was no unusual phenomenon.

Just as Hei Tian was about to ask more questions, it suddenly saw a light appearing on the horizon. It widened its cat eyes in shock and saw a meteorite flying over, surrounded by surging flames that rapidly expanded.

Rumble—

The mountains trembled, startling the ferocious beasts that resided there. They opened their eyes one after another and looked up.

The meteorite soon flew past the sky above their heads at an extremely fast speed. With a huge momentum, it tore through the sea of clouds and quickly disappeared into the horizon.

Hei Tian breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, “Brother, what was that?”

Huang Tian laid down again and lazily said, “I’m not sure. Maybe a star fell from the sky. As long as it doesn’t hit us, it’s fine.”

Even though it said that, its heart was filled with vigilance.

The meteorite emitted an aura that made its heart palpitate. It had a feeling that there were living beings hidden inside.

Ever since they came to the Great Wilderness, they had encountered too many strange things, so Huang Tian did not think much of it.

After a long time.

When the meteorite landed, it released a deafening sound and the world lost its color. Hei Tian turned its head and looked over. However, it was too far away so it could not see anything. He only saw the sky shining with white light at the end of the horizon. Huang Tian was still lying on its stomach and did not look up again.

Year 2 of the Dinghe Era, Shuntian City, in the imperial palace’s throne room.

It was morning court.

The dignified Emperor swept his gaze across the officials in the hall. No one dared to look at him.

An Chang stood up, cupped his hands, and said, “Your Majesty, the matter of the former emperor has been going on for a year. Those who should be denounced have been denounced. Shouldn’t you focus on the dynasty?

Recently, there have been more and more foreign races around Skyview Land. Either they are coming here to befriend Great Jing or they are coming to investigate. We cannot be careless.”

As soon as he said this, the officials looked at the Emperor expectantly.

The Emperor had only been in office for more than a year, but he had changed too many civil and military officials, causing the court to be apprehensive.

If it were someone else who suggested it, they would think that they were courting death. However, if An Chang were to say it, it would definitely be His Majesty’s arrangement. It was likely that His Majesty had asked An Chang to give them a way out.

The Emperor sighed and said, “Forget it. I should indeed let go. Let’s talk about the Qiangliang Race first.”

The Qiangliang Race was the enemy that Great Jing feared the most.

In the previous war, how many people did the Qiangliang Race send?

It was hard to imagine how powerful the Qiangliang Race would be if they were to mobilize all their forces..
