A Sword Drawn, Riding the Wind with a Yu Sword

All eyes fell on the sword in front of Tiangang Taoist, under the sunlight, the blade of the Taihang Sword refracted a cold light, causing Jiang Yu, Yanshe Venerable, and the Twelve Heavenly Lodestar Assassins to feel apprehensive.

"Taihang Sword? Dragon Arising Temple... Changsheng Taoist Priest!"

Jiang Yu's expression turned extremely ugly upon hearing Tiangang Taoist's words.

Zong Tianwu had also seen the Ten Famous Swords and recognized the identity of the Taihang Sword. He was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "It seems we are not facing certain death!"

Jiang Yu stared at the Taihang Sword, stunned in place.

Since coming of age, he had rarely visited Jiang Changsheng, and their relationship had gradually drifted apart. Although he occasionally heard about the legendary achievements of Changsheng Taoist Priest, he also felt that they no longer belonged to the same world, and he did not want to have too much contact with Changsheng Taoist Priest, so as not to drag him into the vortex of power struggles.

He never expected that Changsheng Taoist Priest would intervene in this situation of certain death.

"Brother Changsheng..."

As Jiang Yu relaxed, his legs weakened, and he half-knelt on the ground, muttering to himself, his hands tightly gripping the hilt of his sword.

Jiang Yu angrily shouted: "Changsheng Taoist Priest, why interfere in my affairs?"

Tiangang Taoist, Yanshe Venerable, and others looked around, searching for Jiang Changsheng's figure, but they couldn't find him.

Just then, a strong wind descended from the sky, shaking the trees within a few hundred zhang. Everyone looked up and saw a figure descending rapidly from the sky, his toes landing on the hilt of the Taihang Sword.

Tiangang Taoist did not dodge, but his left hand behind his back trembled slightly.

He looked up and met Jiang Changsheng's gaze.

Jiang Changsheng stood on the Taihang Sword, overlooking Tiangang Taoist, his blue Taoist robe fluttering in the wind. He was like an immortal, his posture high above, looking down on all living beings.

Tiangang Taoist could not see through Jiang Changsheng, but the latter's appearance made him feel like he was facing a formidable enemy.

Jiang Yu stood behind Tiangang Taoist and angrily said: "Changsheng Taoist Priest, Dragon Arising Temple was personally appointed by the late emperor, and you are also the master of my child. Are you going to defy me?"

He was very flustered, because in his plan, he wanted to first absorb Zong Tianwu and then deal with Jiang Changsheng. Now, Jiang Changsheng's premature appearance had completely disrupted his plan.

Damn it!

This place was still a hundred miles away from Jing City. Jiang Yu had set up this killing trap in advance for fear of being discovered by Jiang Changsheng, but he didn't expect that the thing he was most worried about and thought was most unlikely to happen still happened.

Sure enough!

Dragon Arising Temple has rebellious intentions!

Jiang Changsheng ignored Jiang Yu, stared at Tiangang Taoist, his eyes indifferent, and said: "In those years, Prince Qin sent me a lot of palace snacks. I have to repay this favor."

Snacks?

Jiang Yu and others only felt absurd, how could it be!

Jiang Yu said in a deep voice: "Tiangang Taoist, do you have the confidence to take him down?"

Tiangang Taoist was expressionless and silent for a moment before saying: "No."

These two words made Jiang Yu's heart sink to the bottom.

Yanshe Venerable said coldly: "Changsheng Taoist Priest, do you know what kind of power you are interfering with? It's not just the Great Jing imperial power. I advise you to quickly roll back to your temple, recite your Taoist scriptures, and eat your vegetarian meals!"

Jiang Changsheng raised his left hand, startling everyone into high alert.

Shua——

A sword flew out from the depths of the forest, it was Gui Liu's sword. The sword sped away at an extremely fast speed, Yanshe Venerable didn't have time to react and was pierced through the shoulder, staggering backwards.

Yanshe Venerable was so frightened that his eyes bulged and his heart almost burst, fortunately, it didn't injure any vital points.

"It's you!"

An assassin exclaimed, "The day Hong Lie rebelled, you were the one who saved the Crown Prince!"

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yu's expression changed drastically.

He had suspected it before, but Jiang Changsheng had no reason to save the Crown Prince, and the personality displayed by that mysterious person was completely the opposite of Jiang Changsheng, but the current situation...

Jiang Changsheng said, "Come on together, today, except for the emperor, all of you must die. If you join forces, there is still a chance of survival."

If they come together, the survival reward might be greater!

The reason why Jiang Changsheng didn't instantly kill Tiangang Taoist when he appeared was for the sake of the survival reward.

As for why he didn't take action when Jiang Yu and the other were in danger, it was because Zong Tianwu was enough to deal with it, but Zong Tianwu was careless and was poisoned.

His words had no emotional fluctuations, but they made everyone feel the aura of death.

Tiangang Taoist raised his eyes again, his eyes turned golden, his aura suddenly became sharp, and a terrifying strong wind rose from the soles of his feet, wrapping around his body like a tornado.

"Tian Shan Ji Que died at your hands, if I die today, can I be buried in the Hero's Graveyard?" Tiangang Taoist stared at Jiang Changsheng and said in a deep voice.

He has been wandering the martial world for nearly a hundred years, and his intuition is extremely keen. He knows that today's battle is likely to lead to his death.

Jiang Changsheng said, "The leader of the Grandmasters, should be buried in the Hero's Graveyard."

He has no discrimination against Tiangang Taoist, everyone has their own position and pursuit, the five Grandmasters want to restore Chu, that is their choice.

Tiangang Taoist revealed a smile, and then waved his right palm.

With one palm strike, the world changed color!

Golden light burst out, shining the world, an extremely terrifying palm wind erupted, Yanshe Venerable, Zong Tianwu, and the Twelve Heavenly Lodestar Assassins were shocked and dodged one after another. The terrifying palm wind tore the ground, rolled up the forest, and dust flew into the sky, as if the end of the world was coming.

However, Jiang Changsheng, facing Tiangang Taoist, remained as still as a mountain, only his robe fluttered wildly, the palm wind was blocked by his invisible spiritual power, causing the palm wind to be torn into dozens of long dragons.

Tiangang Taoist widened his eyes, covered in sweat.

He knew that the other party was very strong, but he didn't expect that he couldn't shake the other party even after using his ultimate skill.

Jiang Yu was almost scared to death, he had seen the strength of Tiangang Taoist, the Thirteen Heavenly Lodestar Assassins joined forces, and were subdued by Tiangang Taoist in less than five breaths, the leader of the five Grandmasters, a true Martial Arts Grandmaster, such a master facing Changsheng Taoist Priest, could not hurt him in the slightest.

Jiang Changsheng raised his left hand, extended his index finger, and pointed diagonally at Tiangang Taoist's forehead, less than a meter away.

In an instant, Tiangang Taoist jumped away suddenly, away from Jiang Changsheng.

Now only Jiang Yu was left appearing in front of Jiang Changsheng, facing Jiang Changsheng's index finger, the terrifying killing intent made him feel cold all over, and he couldn't move.

Thump!

Jiang Yu was so frightened that he knelt in front of Jiang Changsheng, his face pale, without any blood, his eyes full of fear and despair.

Jiang Changsheng retracted his hand and said, "Why is Your Majesty kneeling? I said, I won't kill you, I will only kill others, they can't escape, and they can't beg for mercy."

Jiang Yu trembled all over, lowering his noble head, his hands clenched tightly in his sleeves.

Tiangang Taoist tore off his calm and composed facade, and shouted angrily, "Everyone attack together, no one can escape, we can only fight to the death!"

The Twelve Heavenly Lodestar Assassins and Yanshe Venerable were not stupid either. Jiang Changsheng's movement technique could definitely catch up with them. If they ran, it would be a one-on-one situation.

They roared and charged towards Jiang Changsheng, and so did Tiangang Taoist. Fourteen experts attacked Jiang Changsheng from different directions, the weakest being at the Heavenly Connection Realm.

Jiang Changsheng landed gently, then drew the Taihang Sword. His movements seemed slow, but that was only relative to him. In the eyes of others, he seemed to teleport to the ground, followed by drawing his sword.

"Don't disappoint me."

Jiang Changsheng's voice clearly entered their ears. He raised his sword and waved it, the tip of the sword pointing diagonally at the sky. In an instant, sword qi erupted like a mountain torrent, sweeping across the heavens and the earth, unstoppable!

Jiang Yu and Zong Tianwu only saw Jiang Changsheng suddenly unleash endless sword qi. Zong Tianwu quickly came in front of Jiang Yu to block it for him, but was surprised to find that the sword qi did not touch them.

Deafening roars came from all directions, the forest fell, the mountains collapsed, and the ground was cut with shocking cracks by the sword qi.

Three breaths later, the sword qi dissipated!

Within a radius of two miles, everything was desolate. All the trees were cut down, and countless flowers, plants, and wood chips were still dancing in the air. Dust rose up, and from a high altitude, it looked like a huge circle rising from the mountains.

Tiangang Taoist, Yanshe Venerable, and the Twelve Heavenly Lodestar Assassins stood still, still maintaining their attacking postures. Their bodies began to bleed, and everyone spat out blood together, then fell down, without even a wail.

All dead!

This scene made Jiang Yu and Zong Tianwu tremble all over in disbelief.

The former Martial Arts Supreme, Zong Tianwu, only felt that his worldview had shattered. How could there be such an expert in this world?

Jiang Changsheng sheathed his sword, gently blowing away the grass clippings on the blade, then put the Taihang Sword back into its scabbard.

He walked to Jiang Yu and helped him up.

Jiang Yu was stiff all over, his face covered in cold sweat, extremely frightened, and he didn't even dare to look Jiang Changsheng in the eye, without any imperial demeanor.

Jiang Changsheng patted his dragon robe and said with a smile, "Today, His Majesty came out to play, without any wind or waves, it's time to go back."

Not killing Jiang Yu was also for Jiang Ziyu's sake. If the emperor died, Great Jing would be in chaos. Even if Jiang Ziyu was summoned back to support him as emperor, the various states would inevitably take the opportunity to rebel. In addition, Gu Han, the Jin Dynasty, and other surrounding dynasties would invade at any time, and Great Jing would be finished. Even if Jiang Changsheng personally took action and beheaded them one by one, it would still take time to conquer the mountains and rivers and consolidate imperial power, and there would be too many variables.

This country is really too big!

Now Jiang Changsheng no longer takes the Great Vehicle Dragon Tower seriously. Even if Jiang Yu informs them and frantically calls for people, it will only help him prepare survival rewards.

Jiang Yu looked up, forced a smile, and said, "Taoist Priest is right, I... I should return to the palace..."

He turned and left, walking very slowly, for fear that Jiang Changsheng would go back on his word. He looked around, and the terrifying scenes in all directions made him shiver.

After a long time, he dared to use his true qi and ride the dragon away.

Jiang Changsheng looked at Jiang Yu not far away and said, "The Empress Dowager's tomb is in Dragon Arising Temple, you can come to pay your respects."

He leaped up, flew away on his sword, and disappeared into the sky.

Zong Tianwu was impressed by his demeanor and sighed, "Riding the wind on a sword, he is truly extraordinary."

Jiang Yu's expression was extremely complicated, and he still hadn't recovered.

Inside the imperial study.

Jiang Yu sat on a chair with disheveled hair and a vacant look in his eyes, a table full of memorials scattered haphazardly.

"What? The mysterious expert who abducted the Crown Prince that day was Changsheng Taoist Priest? Even Tiangang Taoist and the Venerable are dead..."

Disaster Buddha's face was extremely unsightly. He and Calamity Buddha were brothers, and to this day, he still wanted to avenge his brother, but the enemy was so powerful that he was filled with pressure.

Jiang Yu did not answer him, still in a daze.

Disaster Buddha took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I will go to the Great Vehicle Dragon Tower for reinforcements!"

He turned to leave.

"Stop!"

Jiang Yu called out to him, and Disaster Buddha stopped, looking at him in surprise.

"Don't go... don't go..."

Jiang Yu trembled all over, his voice filled with fear.

He knew very well that once the Great Vehicle Dragon Tower came to support, it would be fine if they won, but if they lost, the Great Vehicle Dragon Tower could escape, but he could not, he would surely die.

He dared not gamble.

Jiang Changsheng was too strong, and he seriously doubted that there was anyone in the Great Vehicle Dragon Tower who could deal with Jiang Changsheng.

He thought of Jiang Changsheng undergoing the lightning tribulation and raising spirit snakes. After the late emperor befriended him, he still held on for several years. He suddenly felt that Jiang Changsheng might be a reincarnation of an immortal god?

Disaster Buddha looked at Jiang Yu in disbelief and said, "Your Majesty, are you just going to endure it like this? After today's battle, he will surely despise imperial power. As the Son of Heaven, are you willing to always be inferior to him?"

"This is no longer something Your Majesty can decide. Dragon Arising Temple will be destroyed, this country belongs to the Great Vehicle Dragon Tower!"

Disaster Buddha left these words behind and left angrily.

Jiang Yu hesitated, but in the end, he did not get up. The battle of today still echoed in his mind.
