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

Chapter 7

Godly Leg Shakes the Capital, Sword Control Technique

Rumble—

Thunderclouds surged, and it was still raining in the night sky. The rain was getting heavier and heavier.

The third senior disciple of the Longqi Temple, Meng Qiushuang, stood in front of the Ghost-Eyed Evil King with his sword. The rain soaked her Daoist robe. Even though she was a woman, there was no fear on her beautiful face.

The other Longqi Temple disciples in the surrounding buildings all looked nervously at the Ghost-Eyed Evil King, shivering, not daring to attack.

The Ghost-Eyed Evil King stood rooted on the spot and did not move forward. He did not look at Meng Qiushuang either. Instead, he stared at the night sky behind Meng Qiushuang. There was a figure looking at him from the top of a building.

“I didn’t expect there to be another expert in Longqi Temple other than that old man Qingxu. So the target is you.”

The Ghost-Eyed Evil King smiled sinisterly. Meng Qiushuang frowned, not understanding what he meant.

Meng Qiushuang coldly said, “Devil, you’ve massacred my temple’s disciples. When my master returns, he will not forgive you. Moreover, this is the capital city. I’ve already sent my fellow disciples to report to the government office. The capital city is an inescapable net. You won’t be able to escape.”

The Ghost-Eyed Evil King ignored her and said with a smile, “Your Excellency, why aren’t you attacking? Why aren’t you escaping?”

Only then did Meng Qiushuang realize that the other party was not staring at her at all. She turned around and saw a building behind her. She could not see anything more than a thousand feet away. The surrounding disciples were also weak. Who was the top expert that the devil mentioned?

“From what you said, you’re here for me. Could it be that the previous assassination was also arranged by you?”

Jiang Changsheng’s voice echoed in the night sky, making it difficult to identify the source of the voice.

Hearing Jiang Changsheng’s voice, Meng Qiushuang and the other disciples were stunned. They naturally remembered Jiang Changsheng’s voice, but was he a top expert?

The Ghost-Eyed Evil King smiled sinisterly and said, “Oh? There’s another assassination attempt? It seems like it has failed, but you’re dead this time.”

He leaped up and landed on the roof of the pavilion behind Meng Qiushuang. The group of disciples hastily gathered and retreated to the entrance of Longqi Temple. They looked around and finally saw Jiang Changsheng.

Jiang Changsheng stood on the eaves of the Mingxin Palace Hall. From afar, his true appearance could not be seen. He stood upright, and under the thunderclouds and night sky, he emitted an indescribably powerful aura.

“Junior Brother Changsheng…”

Meng Qiushuang muttered to herself as she gripped the sword in her hand.

Jiang Changsheng looked at the Ghost-Eyed Evil King with a cold gaze as killing intent rose in his heart.

“Even though the opponent’s true energy is not half of mine, it is much stronger than my master. From the looks of it, he must have experienced hundreds of battles. I cannot be careless. I have to give it my all.”

Jiang Changsheng thought to himself. He began to mobilize the true energy in his body and his Daoist robe fluttered.

The Ghost-Eyed Evil King quickly rushed towards Jiang Changsheng and jumped on the eaves. Both sides rapidly approached each other, and this scene made the disciples of the Longqi Temple extremely nervous.

Could Changsheng withstand such an evil demon?

Meng Qiushuang and the other disciples thought worriedly.

The Ghost-Eyed Evil King leaped up and poured his true energy into his right palm. His smile was so cruel, and his eyes were filled with excitement.

“Die, kid!”

Under the night sky, lightning and thunder intersected and both sides were illuminated.

When the distance between the two sides was less than 50 feet, Jiang Changsheng suddenly moved.

He leaped up at a speed that the Ghost-Eyed Evil King could not catch and kicked out. His figure was like a ghost, and when his leg landed in the Ghost-Eyed Evil King’s eyes, an afterimage appeared. It was as if dozens of legs were attacking the Ghost-Eyed Evil King at the same time.

Bang!

Jiang Changsheng kicked the Ghost-Eyed Evil King’s chest in mid-air. Accompanied by the crisp sound of bones breaking, true energy exploded along his right foot and the Ghost-Eyed Evil King was sent flying.

“How is it possible…”

The Ghost-Eyed Evil King widened his eyes and revealed an expression of disbelief. Blood spewed out from his mouth uncontrollably, leaving an arrow of blood in the night sky. He flew past the pavilions and over the heads of the disciples. He crossed the cliff and fell to the foot of the mountain before disappearing into the clouds.

Meng Qiushuang and the other disciples were dumbstruck. They could not believe their eyes.

…

At the foot of the mountain, a large number of jailers and soldiers rushed over. Zhang Tianren also ran over with a spear in his hand. Under the light of the torch in his left hand, his neck was flushed red.

“Are you sure this is the direction?”

One of the generals frowned and asked in a confused tone.

Zhang Tianren nodded and said, “That’s right, this is the direction.”

The general hesitated. “The direction is in Long…”

Before the general could finish his sentence, they heard a gust of wind from above, startling them so much that they subconsciously turned around. A figure descended from the sky and smashed onto the steps at the foot of Longqi Mountain, causing gravel to fly and blood to splatter on the ground.

The soldiers were shocked and hurried to surround him.

“It’s the Ghost-Eyed… Evil King… he’s dead!”

One of the guards cried out in shock, causing Zhang Tianren and the general to rush over to take a look. They saw the Ghost-Eyed Evil King lying on the stone steps with his limbs twisted uncomfortably. His chest had collapsed, and ghastly white bones could be vaguely seen. He died with remaining grievances, and his eyes were filled with fear, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.

Zhang Tianren was moved. He looked up at the mountain in front of him. Under the night sky, thunderclouds surged. The Longqi Mountain seemed so mysterious.

After the general checked the Ghost-Eyed Evil King’s injuries, he said in a deep voice, “He was kicked to death by an extremely ferocious leg technique. He was killed in one blow. The difference in strength between the two sides is huge.”

Huge disparity in strength?

Zhang Tianren came back to his senses and recalled the scene when the Ghost-Eyed Evil King killed his way out of the prison. His expression was complicated.

…

Inside the house, Jiang Changsheng returned to his room and closed the door. He breathed a sigh of relief.

He was both excited and nervous. This was his first time killing an enemy and the first time he went all out. Fortunately, he did not fail.

After killing the Ghost-Eyed Evil King, he was surrounded by his fellow disciples. However, the disciples were not too excited. After all, many of their fellow disciples had died. Second Senior Brother Meng Qiuhe was severely injured and right now, the Longqi Temple was managed by Third Senior Sister Meng Qiushuang. Meng Qiushuang asked him to return to his room to rest in advance to avoid any more villains from coming to kill him.

That night was the most tragic disaster Longqi Temple had experienced in dozens of years. At least twenty disciples had died.

Jiang Changsheng sat on the bed. He did not blame himself. He just was wondering if the enemy would attack again.

“In the fourteenth year after the founding of the dynasty, the Ghost-Eyed Evil King attacked you and was killed by you. You survived a calamity and obtained a survival reward—the spell, ‘Royal Sword Technique’.”

A line of words appeared before Jiang Changsheng’s eyes. He smiled. Finally, it was no longer martial arts, but magic!

He immediately began to accept the inheritance of the Royal Sword Technique.

It was a sleepless night.

Early in the morning.

Jiang Changsheng was still cultivation, and there were four disciples guarding the courtyard. They were all discussing last night’s incident in low voices. Jiang Changsheng’s performance had shocked everyone, but there were also some who complained about him and believed that he was the one who summoned the evil demons.

However, Jiang Changsheng was also an orphan, so they could not say for sure. They could only guess based on the Ghost-Eyed Evil King’s words.

Jiang Changsheng’s hearing far exceeded that of ordinary people, so he naturally heard those comments. However, he did not care. He was not a teenager. He was an adult who had lived two lives. In this life, he only wanted to survive for as long as possible, and he did not have the time to worry about the death of others.

Furthermore, how could a martial arts sect in the capital not suffer calamities?

Jiang Changsheng cultivated in peace. Without a sword, he could not cultivate the Royal Sword Technique. Therefore, he still focused on his cultivation techniques.

It was not until Chen Li came to pay a visit that his cultivation was interrupted. However, this time, Chen Li did not come alone, but was accompanied by another person.

“This is the Minister of Justice, Minister Yang. He is here to investigate the matter of the Ghost-Eyed Evil King. Not only did the Ghost-Eyed Evil King kill the disciples of Longqi Temple, but he also killed several prison guards. This matter has alarmed the imperial court. His Majesty was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.”

Chen Li introduced. When Jiang Changsheng heard that, he cupped his hands and bowed.

In the Great Jing Dynasty, the position of the minister could be regarded as the second rank of the official position. There were less than ten people who had more power than the Minister of Justice.

Yang Shangshu sized up Jiang Changsheng with a strange look in his eyes and asked, “Do you know the Ghost-Eyed Evil King? He’s the villain who attacked Longqi Temple last night. I heard that he was killed by you.”

Jiang Changsheng answered, “Reporting to the minister, Changsheng has been an orphan since he was young and has been staying in Longqi Temple. Other than Scholar Chen and His Highness the Fourth Prince, he does not recognize anyone else outside the mountain.”

Yang Shangshu expressionlessly said, “Then tell me what you saw.”

Jiang Changsheng answered truthfully. After Yang Shangshu made his decision, he turned around and left, leaving only Chen Li and Jiang Changsheng in the room.

“Not bad. Your martial arts are so powerful that you can even kill the Ghost-Eyed Evil King. I heard that he was kicked down the mountain by you and fell to his death?”

Chen Li no longer pretended to be serious and said excitedly.

Jiang Changsheng’s strength made him feel that his investment over the years was not for nothing.

Even though Chen Li had never roamed the martial arts world, he had heard of the Ghost-Eyed Evil King’s infamous reputation. He then talked to Jiang Changsheng about how the imperial court had captured the Ghost-Eyed Evil King previously.

Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said, “He saw that I was young and was careless.”

Chen Li waved his hand and said, “What are you being modest for? Your legwork has surprised even the generals guarding the capital. That Ghost-Eyed Evil King is an expert above the True Energy Realm. According to the hierarchy of the martial arts world, he is known as a top expert. This kind of martial artist can freely retract their true energy and is not someone ordinary people can defeat.”

Jiang Changsheng silently noted it down.

Third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, True Energy Realm, top expert!

The third level of the Dao Technique could easily kill a top expert. The gap between cultivation and martial arts was huge.

Chen Li recounted the situation of the case. Sky Prison was an important place in the capital, but a death row prisoner had escaped. The Emperor had lost face, and the jailer responsible for guarding the Ghost-Eyed Evil King had been ordered to be executed. They still had to continue to investigate the people at all levels of Sky Prison. This was also the reason why the Minister of Justice had come in person. If the investigation was not done well, his position as the Minister of Justice might not be guaranteed.

The position of the minister was so high that if it were any other dynasty, how could it fall so easily? However, it was different in the Great Jing Dynasty. Most of the important officials were meritorious officials of the founding dynasty. The Emperor had always wanted to pull them out, and there would be a change of ministers almost every year. Naturally, the six ministers were walking on thin ice.

“Your identity and background are very simple. Daoist Qingxu has reported the household registration of every disciple, so you don’t have to worry. You have contributed greatly to killing the Ghost-Eyed Evil King. His Majesty will reward you when the time comes. Tell me, what do you want? If His Majesty mentions it in court, I can speak up for you,” Chen Li shook his teacup and said with a smile.

He could be considered as having a good time. After a night, all the aristocrats in the capital knew that a young top expert had appeared in Longqi Temple. He could even kick the famous Ghost-Eyed Evil King to death. He must have a bright future in the martial arts dynasty.

All first-rate experts were proud and arrogant. The Chen family had only managed to rope in a top expert, but the other party was still not in the capital. They could only summon him if there was anything. However,Jiang Changsheng was different. He lived in the capital and was an orphan. It was not impossible for him to rope in him as a member of the Chen family.
