My Descendant Begged Me To Help Him Just After I Became A God

Chapter 23

Mahayana Dragon Tower Wants a Son

In the courtyard, a figure descended from the sky. It was Jiang Yuan in dragon robes. Jiang Yuan’s hair was disheveled. It was obvious that he was not a crown . He stared at Jiang Changsheng’s back while Jiang Changsheng quietly kept his scabbard in his sleeve.

“Let her go. If you are coming for me, I’m right here!”

Jiang Yuan said in a deep voice. He activated his true qi and condensed a dragon shadow around him. This scene was captured by Jiang Changsheng’s divine consciousness and he was greatly surprised.

This special effect was so cool!

Most importantly, Jiang Yuan’s true energy had increased by dozens of times in an instant, and he was no longer inferior to the women under him.

Heaven Arrival!

This emperor hid himself so well. No wonder he could make the supreme experts of the martial arts world work for him.

With his back facing Jiang Yuan, Jiang Changsheng asked in a hoarse voice, “Emperor, what’s the identity of the fake crown prince?”

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan’s expression darkened and his eyes flickered. Under the night sky, his expression was so dark and horrifying.

“How did you know about this? Who are you?”

Jiang Yuan stepped forward as he spoke.

The woman from the Cold Palace gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t come over. You’re not his opponent!”

Jiang Yuan stopped and frowned. His gaze was fixed on Jiang Changsheng, wanting to see through him. Jiang Changsheng did not bring the Qilin Horsetail Whisk and the Taihang Sword was hidden in his wide sleeve. In the dark environment, he could not see through Jiang Changsheng’s identity.

There were many people in his mind. He had too many enemies in his life, and among them were experts stronger than him.

Jiang Changsheng’s back was still facing him as he said, “As a dignified emperor, he actually took the lead in exchanging bargaining chips for the crown prince position. Won’t it be ridiculous if this gets out? It would be fine if the fake crown prince is his biological bloodline, but if not…”

His words were filled with mockery, but Jiang Yuan was not angry.

Jiang Yuan asked, “What do you want? Since you want to ask, it means that you are not here for me. Do you know my eldest son?”

Jiang Changsheng teased, “Of course I know your eldest son. What would he think if he knew that you abandoned him in a temple as an orphaned little Daoist?”

Jiang Yuan was silent.

“What Daoist temple?” The woman from the Cold Palace asked.

Jiang Changsheng asked meaningfully, “How many Daoist temples are there in the capital?”

The moment he said that, the woman from the Cold Palace glared at Jiang Yuan and said in a cold voice, “Emperor Jiang, you’ve been toying with me for so many years?”

Jiang Yuan’s expression was extremely ugly while Jiang Changsheng was somewhat surprised. From his words, it was obvious that there was something else going on.

Jiang Changsheng wanted to ask more questions, but Jiang Yuan suddenly attacked. He struck out with his right palm, and a dragon shadow appeared around him. With a strong wind from his palm, he charged towards Jiang Changsheng. The door of the palace exploded into countless pieces of wood.

“Hmph! Impudent!”

Jiang Changsheng snorted and gently patted his left hand behind him. Spiritual energy spread out and easily dispersed the dragon shadow. His true qi shook the tables and chairs in the palace until they fell apart.

What domineering skills!

The Emperor’s strength had actually increased by several times after he attacked. How many times could his father increase his strength?

It was really amazing!

Jiang Changsheng lamented in his heart, but Jiang Yuan was even more shocked.

“How is this possible… He dissolved my true dragon aura so easily… Who exactly is he?”

It had been a long time since Jiang Yuan felt such pressure. The last time was when he had yet to ascend to the throne.

There was actually such an expert in the world!

Jiang Yuan instantly thought of many possibilities and even guessed that this person was the one who taught Changsheng martial arts.

Could he be here to support Changsheng?

No!

Why did he accept Changsheng as his disciple? Why did he support him? How did he know the truth?

Jiang Yuan was filled with fear and felt that the other party must be an enemy.

He did not expect the other party to be Jiang Changsheng because he had been taken away the moment he was born. It was impossible for him to know his background, let alone dominate everything like this person.

There must be an enemy scheming behind the scenes!

“Emperor, are you still unwilling to say?”

Jiang Changsheng reached out and grabbed the woman’s neck before lifting her up. He said sinisterly, “A Heaven Arrival realm expert was banished to the Cold Palace by you. How ridiculous.”

Jiang Yuan’s expression changed. Knowing that he was not his opponent, he took a deep breath and said, “I’ll talk. The fake crown prince is not my biological son. He is just a chess piece that is destined to be abandoned. If you come to uphold justice for the real crown prince, you can rest assured that he will die sooner or later.”

“As for my reputation, this matter will not spread. I will ask the Yang Family to personally destroy him and find an excuse. The death of the Crown Prince will only be a regret in history.”

Jiang Changsheng asked, “Why did you use chess pieces to replace the real crown prince?”

Jiang Yuan sighed and said, “Because he cannot become the crown prince. The throne is already destined. Unfortunately, the Yang Family cannot see through him. I sent him out to ensure his safety. If he were to be born in the palace, he would undoubtedly die.”

At that moment, he heard a large number of footsteps rushing over. It was the royal guards of the palace, specially guarding the back of the palace. Experts with high martial arts skills had already rushed over.

The matter could not be blown up.

Otherwise, it would disturb his cultivation.

Jiang Changsheng said, “Who would harm him? Tell me the name. Since you want to protect him, then we have the same idea.”

Jiang Yuan’s eyes were gloomy as he said, “The Mahayana Dragon Tower.”

The Mahayana Dragon Tower?

Jiang Changsheng had never heard of this name. Since he had the answer, he should leave. At most, he would come back in the future.

He released his grip and put down the woman from the Cold Palace. With a leap, he directly smashed through the eaves of the Cold Palace and disappeared into the night without a trace.

Jiang Yuan immediately ran over and supported the woman.

The woman pushed him away and said with a cold expression, “Jiang Yuan, you’ve gone too far. I allowed you to give her the position of Empress and give birth to Jiang Yu, but you deceived me! I’ll kill that little bastard tomorrow!”

Jiang Yuan stood up and looked down at her with an extremely cold gaze. “Can you defeat that person?”

The woman from the Cold Palace was silent.

Jiang Yuan coldly said, “I will fulfill what I promised you, but even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs. He has become a mortal and does not know his background. Why bother? If you are going to cause trouble, the throne will not be so certain. All these years, I have discovered that my sons are all talented dragons. Think about it carefully. The world has changed. You are no longer a princess of the Chu Dynasty. Stop being willful!”

With that said, Jiang Yuan turned around and left, followed by a large number of royal guards.

Jiang Yuan’s voice came from outside the hall. “What happened tonight is not to be spread out. Whoever dares to say it will be beheaded!”

The woman from the Cold Palace sat paralyzed on the ground. She smiled sadly. “Ridiculous. I’m so ridiculous…”

Under the moonlight, Jiang Yuan revealed his dragon might. In the darkness, she was like a malicious ghost as she looked at him in a daze, as if she was isolated from two livetimes.

…

After returning to Longqi Temple, Jiang Changsheng did not disturb Hua Jianxin and quietly entered the house.

He changed back into his Daoist robe. After going to the palace, he had gained a lot tonight.

Firstly, he wanted to confirm that the expert was not his opponent.

Secondly, he wanted to confirm the real reason why he had been switched, and the answer he got was the Mahayana Dragon Tower.

From Daoist Master Qingxu’s words, he and Jiang Yuan should have colluded. Even though Jiang Changsheng had been switched, no one in Longqi Temple dared to brazenly kill him. From that, it could be seen that Jiang Yuan still wanted to protect him.

Of course, even though Jiang Yuan had the heart to protect him, he also wanted to take the opportunity to suppress the Yang Family. It was hard to fathom the heart of an emperor.

Perhaps the Mahayana Dragon Tower was also Jiang Yuan’s target, so he told Jiang Changsheng so as to use someone’s knife to kill.

Jiang Changsheng was not angry. In any case, his goal was to become an immortal. If the Mahayana Dragon Tower wanted to kill him, they would send someone here sooner or later in exchange for survival rewards.

The fact that he did not trigger the survival reward meant that the fight was not a calamity, and he had to accept the fact.

“A reserved throne? Hmph, since you, Jiang Yuan, can’t do it, then I have to snatch it ,yself.”

Jiang Changsheng’s lips curled up. The kinship in this life was very weak. After all, he had the memories of his previous life. Even though he had to cultivate steadily in this life, he did not want to live a life where he had to compromise.

What he was afraid of is that there were stronger people in the world, not everyone in the world!

This time, he did not use the Phantom God Eye because he wanted to give Jiang Yuan a warning. He had already planned when to use the Phantom God Eye.

Jiang Changsheng was in a good mood, mainly because he was sure that no one in the capital could threaten him.

The next day, Hua Jianxin noticed that Jiang Changsheng seemed to be in a good mood. He even personally guided her in her training.

Jiang Changsheng was an Immortal Cultivator, and his Immortal Cultivation Technique was more profound than her martial arts. A few pointers were enough for her to benefit greatly. Internal arts had similarities, but the Immortal Cultivation system was different.

The incident in the palace last night had not spread. Longqi Temple was still lively with visitors.

Meng Qiushuang came to look for Jiang Changsheng several times. Some of the nobles had too high of a status for her to refuse. After some thought, Jiang Changsheng asked White Dragon to meet them.

White Dragon could also get a Spirit-increasing Pill every month. After all, it was one of the contributors to the creation of the pill. Jiang Changsheng did not treat it unfairly. Its intelligence was also steadily improving. Right now, it could understand some simple human language. Occasionally, it would tease even Hua Jianxin. When it saw Hua Jianxin’s nervous appearance, it would often shake its snake head happily.

Meng Qiushuang looked at White Dragon and felt that it was ridiculous. However, when White Dragon raised its snake body and nodded at her, her worldview almost shattered.

“It…”

Meng Qiushuang knew that White Dragon was very human-like, but it was too ridiculous for it to nod to her.

Jiang Changsheng nodded with a smile. Meng Qiushuang could only suppress his shock and leave with White Dragon.

After Meng Qiushuang left, Hua Jianxin walked out of the house and clicked his tongue in wonder. “Daoist Master, your snake will become a demon sooner or later.”

In Jiang Changsheng’s eyes, White Dragon was adorable, but in her eyes, it was a terrifying thing. The more intelligent it was, the more terrifying it was.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “That’s great. It can still talk to us in the future.”

Hua Jianxin shivered.

Hua Jianxin changed the topic and asked, “Daoist Master, you cultivate all day long with a clear heart and few desires, and you don’t see anyone. Your martial arts are clearly unfathomable and you’re still young. What are you pursuing?”

She had heard of the legendary story of Daoist Master Changsheng killing the Ghost-Eyed Evil King at the age of fourteen. Later on, she heard Meng Qiushuang call Jiang Changsheng her junior brother. This meant that Jiang Changsheng was still young, so young, but he had no desires. It was honestly hard to understand.

Even the illusory gods should have their own pursuits.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “As for pursuit, it’s naturally to comprehend the Dao and live longer.”

Seeing that he was in a good mood, Hua Jianxin could not help but muster his courage and ask, “That is a long-term goal. What is your short-term goal?”

Jiang Changsheng looked at the blue sky in the distance and said leisurely, “Short-term goals? I do have one. I want a son.”

Hua Jianxin was stunned, thinking that she had misheard. As she stared at Jiang Changsheng’s handsome side profile, her ears began to turn red and her heartbeat sped up.

Jiang Changsheng’s attention was attracted by the scenery outside the city. Longqi Temple was located at the edge of the capital. On one side was the city area, and on the other side were the city walls. Outside was a continuous stretch of wilderness.

An army was rushing over from outside the city.
