The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. In the courtyard on the mountain.

“22, 23… 27, 28..

Jiang Changsheng sat on the trunk of the Earth Spirit Tree and looked at the night scenery of the capital as he counted.

The curfew in the capital was extremely late, so it was still brightly lit. Jiang Changsheng was counting the number of Heaven Arrival realm experts at the foot of the mountain.

He also counted the inns near Longqi Mountain. The capital was huge, and there were countless inns. However, there were so many experts gathered in the streets near Longqi Mountain. They must be plotting something.

“Three Divine realm experts and 36 Heaven Arrival realm experts. It’s not a small formation. You wouldn’t have seen it 30 years ago.”

Jiang Changsheng muttered to himself, his eyes filled with anticipation.

It had been a long time since he had obtained a survival reward. It was time!

This was the reason why he gave the inheritance of the Mahayana Dragon Tower to Jiang Ziyu. On the one hand, it was because it was useful, and on the other hand, it was to raise chives.

Martial arts practitioners were competitive. As time passed, there were naturally people who forgot how powerful Jiang Changsheng was or who did not believe him and come to deliver food.

Jiang Changsheng looked forward to it for a while before cultivating under the moonlight. The luster of the Great Feathered Robe converged, and he completely fused into the darkness, covered by leaves.

An hour later, the candlelight in Longqi Temple gradually extinguished, and darkness enveloped the entire Longqi Temple.

A figure sped through the forest. His footsteps jumped over rocks, tree trunks, and the roof of the pavilions, like a dragonfly touching the water. There was no sound at all.

He leaped into the air. Under the moonlight, he was dressed in black, revealing only his eyes and nose. His eyes were filled with excitement.

‘Today, if I steal the legendary Heavenly Scripture of the Universe, I will definitely become a legend in the martial arts world. A holy land is nothing in front of me!’

The black-robed man thought excitedly. He leaped over the mountain gate and moved quickly. Along the way, the disciples who were cultivating in their respective courtyards did not notice him.

Over the past few days, he had used the identity of a devotee to map out Longqi Temple. Although he did not see Immortal Master Changsheng, it was obvious that the places that he was not allowed to go must be the address of Immortal Master Changsheng.

Check one by one!

However, he was extremely lucky and directly touched Jiang Changsheng’s courtyard.

Bai Qi, who was sleeping under the tree, opened its eyes, startling the black-robed man so much that he immediately shrunk his head and hid behind the courtyard wall. He held his breath and focused, circulating his true qi according to the cultivation technique to turn his aura into nothingness.

Bai Qi muttered, “Strange… is it an illusion…

It glanced at Jiang Changsheng on the tree and was relieved to see that he was still there. With the Daoist Master around, what was it afraid of?

It lowered its head and continued to sleep, dreaming of being a thousand-year-old demon that dominated the world. In its dream, it had already transformed and Immortal Master Changsheng was its male slave and was massaging its shoulders and legs. It was very happy.

The man in black waited patiently for a full hour before he stuck his head out. Seeing that the white wolf had fallen asleep, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

“As expected of the Daoist Master. He actually raised a demon wolf. It seems that the rumors are true. Since the Spirit Wolf has such a sharp sense of smell, where is the White Dragon Python that is known to be able to transform into a dragon?”

The man in black was secretly shocked. He looked up and his pupils constricted.

He saw White Dragon entrenched on the mountaintop. That terrifying snake body terrified him. He had never seen such a huge snake. It was almost five feet thick!

Damn it, could this beast really transform into a dragon?

The man in black cursed silently. He focused up and sneaked near the Earth Spirit Tree along the courtyard wall. He climbed along the tree trunk and looked at the few houses in the courtyard. One of them had candlelight, and Hua Jianxin and Jiang Xiu were waiting inside. Inside, Hua Jianxin was telling a story in a low voice to coax Jiang Xiu to sleep.

“Why is there a mother and son? A Daoist priest actually has a woman. Isn’t that breaking the rules for a Daoist priest? This Demonic Priest is actually so impudent. I’m really… envious.”

The man in black sighed in his heart. He crawled forward along the tree trunk and suddenly a hand was pressed on his head. He was so frightened that his entire body tensed and cold sweat flowed. He did not dare to move.

He had been in the martial arts world for so many years and had seen everything. He had even entered tombs and encountered jumping corpses. Experience and intuition told him that there was definitely a hand pressing on his head. A living person?

A dead person?

If he was alive, why didn’t he continue moving?

If he was dead, why was he hanging on a tree?

At this moment, the man in black thought of many things. He carefully raised his head and his gaze met an extraordinarily handsome face. The other party had a smile on his face, scaring him so much that he almost screamed under the dim leaves. However, Jiang Changsheng pressed his acupoints and sealed his voice.

The man in black widened his eyes in horror.

Jiang Changsheng carried him and landed on the ground, waking Bai Qi up. When Bai Qi saw that he was carrying someone, its wolf eyes widened and it shouted, “There really is…”

Before it could finish speaking, it saw Jiang Changsheng make a shushing gesture with one hand and immediately shut up.

It had almost forgotten to not wake the little tyrant up in case he made a fuss again.

Jiang Changsheng carried the man in black and left the courtyard. Bai Qi was curious and hurriedly followed.

They came to the cliff and Jiang Changsheng unlocked the acupoints of the black-robed man.

The black-robed man jumped down the cliff and mocked, “Hahaha, Demonic Priest, you didn’t expect this, did you? My Light-body Technique is unparalleled in the martial arts world. I can also come and go from a cliff..

Before he could finish laughing, he was shocked to discover that his body was rising. Jiang Changsheng used his spiritual energy to suck him up from the cliff and he landed in front of Jiang Changsheng.

Bai Qi lay on the ground, its eyes filled with ridicule.

The man in black felt awkward, but more than that, he felt fear and despair.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Tell me your name. Why did you sneak into Longqi Temple?”

This person had come to Longqi Temple several times. His Heaven Arrival realm cultivation was still very eye-catching among the devotees. Of course, Jiang Changsheng could sense it clearly. Ordinary people could not see through his cultivation at all.

If not for the fact that the black-robed man did not hurt his disciples, he would have been a corpse by now.

The man in black took a deep breath and said, “The people in the martial arts world call me the God of Thieves. I want to test the foundation of the holy land of the martial arts world and see if I can steal Senior’s ultimate technique…’

Other than confessing, he felt that he would definitely die if he did anything else. After all, it was a huge taboo to barge into someone’s territory in the middle of the night.

But Jiang Changsheng did not kill him, which gave him a glimmer of hope. Jiang Changsheng asked, “Don’t you have a name?”

The man in black said awkwardly, “I’ve been an orphan since I was young. My master was a crazy expert and named me Bastard… Ahem, Senior, I really don’t have any ill intentions. I just want to make a name for myself. In our line of work, the more powerful the thing we steal, the higher the status of the target we steal from, the more famous we will be. Only then will there be more powerful rich people looking for us…”

With a plop, he knelt in front of Jiang Changsheng and kowtowed desperately.

“Senior, please spare my life. I’m willing to spread the word that I, the God of Thieves, will never enter Longqi Temple again…

Bai Qi was amused and said with a smile, “Bastard, your master is very talented.”

The God of Thieves felt humiliated, but he did not dare to retort.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Have you heard of Xu Tianji?”

The God of Thieves raised his head and said, “I’ve heard of him. He’s one of the ten Grandmasters in the martial arts world and also the martial arts practitioner with the highest military position.”

“Back then, when Xu Tianji came to cause trouble, the reason why he survived was because he was willing to sweep the floor for Longqi Temple for ten years. Do you choose to die or sweep for ten years?”

“Ten years?”

The God of Thieves was so frightened that his entire body trembled. How many decades did he have in his life?

Jiang Changsheng injected the Seal of Life and Death into his body. The God of Thieves immediately shuddered and was extremely nervous. He could feel that terrifying power wandering in his body.

“This is the Seal ot Lite and Death. No matter how tar you run, once I circulate my energy, you will die. Just guard the mountain obediently. You are still young. Back then, when Xu Tianji left the mountain, he was only 40 years old, but he still made contributions.”

Jiang Changsheng patted the God of Thieves’ face and chuckled before leaving.

The God of Thieves’ forehead was pressed against the ground as tears of humiliation and despair flowed down his face.

Bai Qi smiled and said, “Little brother, bear with it. Ten years will pass very quickly. I had the same experience as you back then. Now that ten years have passed, I still can’t bear to leave the mountain.”

After saying that, it turned around and followed Jiang Changsheng.

The God of Thieves trembled and felt that his life was dark.

In the morning, another person swept the ground in front of Longqi Temple. He was the God of Thieves. Wang Chen had given him a Daoist robe. Now, he looked like a Longqi Temple disciple. He was handsome and very young, looking to be in his early twenties.

God of Thieves’ face was numb and his heart was in extreme pain.

A young disciple came over and asked, “Senior Brother, you don’t look familiar. May I know which courtyard you are from?” The God of Thieves said angrily, “Get lost.”

“Why are you scolding me?”

“So what if I scold you?”

“You… are bullying me. I’ll seek justice from Martial Uncle Huang!”

Martial Uncle Huang?

Could it be the famous Huang Chuan?

The God of Thieves hurriedly stopped him and smiled. “I’m sorry, Junior Brother. I was impatient. How about I bring you down the mountain to eat roasted chicken tonight?”

The disciple widened his eyes and said, “Alright!”

The God of Thieves asked in surprise, “You agreed just like that? The disciples of Longqi Temple can eat meat?”

“Of course we can. We’re only cultivating, not becoming monks. Unlike traditional Daoist temples, we can still get married and have children. However, that will only happen after we graduate.” The junior disciple finally understood. It turned out that he was not a senior brother, but a junior brother.

The God of Thieves was interested and started chatting with him. The two of them chatted as they swept the floor. The attitude of the little disciple became higher and higher.

The sun gradually rose in the east, and the devotees began to climb the mountain.

When it was close to noon, a group of martial artists went up the mountain. Among them, a blue-robed man saw the God of Thieves and widened his eyes.

He quickly walked in front of him and asked in a low voice, “Big Brother, why are you sweeping… Are you stepping on…’

The God of Thieves glared at him and said in a low voice, “Shut up and scram down the mountain. Don’t say that you’ve seen me.”

The blue-robed man was puzzled and asked softly, “Brother, what’s wrong?”

“I’ve suffered a setback. I have to be a sweeper for Longqi Temple for ten years. Tell the outside world that I will retire for ten years. In ten years, I will definitely look for you. At that time, let’s do something big. Go…”

The God of Thieves said seriously. Then, he threw a look at the palace.

The blue-robed man was shocked and did not dare to think too much. He was so frightened that he hurriedly turned around and left the mountain to escape. He was afraid that he would be retained and end up like the God of Thieves.

The God of Thieves looked at his back and sighed.

Lu Chengfeng followed the steps up the mountain. When he saw the blue-robed man who had bragged in the inn yesterday leave the mountain in fear, he was secretly puzzled. However, he did not think too much about it and continued to walk up the mountain.

He brushed past the God of Thieves and bought incense before entering the temple.

The God of Thieves turned around and glanced at Lu Chengfeng. He thought to himself, ‘What profound skills. Tsk tsk, I hope you cause some trouble. That way, I will feel better.’

He sighed. He regretted coming to Longqi Temple..
