Chapter 1549: Jiang Tiansheng's Purpose

~7 min read 1,328 words

"Bai Hang Holy Maiden, since you said he likes trading, then I need you to help me re‑enter Longshe Shan and trade something with him." The First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng stared at the Bai Hang Holy Maiden; this woman was a good tool, they did not dare to go into Longshe Shan, fearing its Formation and the person inside, the unknown danger made them feel threatened and they could not rashly enter.

And the Bai Hang Holy Maiden is a good choice; letting her help with the trade is not up to her.

The Bai Hang Holy Maiden immediately shook her head: "No, I cannot help you; if you want to trade, go yourself."

"However, Qinglong Daoist seems to be in seclusion; if you wish to trade, you may have to wait a while."

The First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng said coldly: "Bai Hang Holy Maiden, this is not up to you; whether you go or not is not decided by you, but by me."

"Longshe Shan, you must go again, understand?"

The consequence of not going would be terrible; Jiang Tiansheng does not like to act violently nor wants to kill her, hopes she understands the current situation, she has no right to refuse nor to bargain.

The Bai Hang Holy Maiden naturally knows, but she could not agree, because she saw her master's figure; Wu Mie Zhenren had already arrived.

"Jiang Tiansheng, why not turn around and look?"

The First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng glanced back, seeing the woman standing behind, Wu Mie Zhenren holding a sword, a pitch‑black face staring at him. This time the Bai Hang Holy Maiden had come; she had secretly followed to protect her disciple, and would not have appeared if the disciple were safe.

It is also for the sake of the Faction's resources, protecting the Faction's assets and this disciple; this trade is crucial and must not go wrong. Yet someone actually made a move: the scum of the Corpse Refining Sect dared to attack the Bai Hang, and that person is detestable.

Wu Mie Zhenren slowly descended; the sword was already half‑drawn, ready to strike at any moment.

The Technique locked onto the First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng; if they dared to act, the Technique would fall on them the next instant and dismember them.

Jiang Tiansheng did not act, but turned and stared at Wu Mie Zhenren, their corpse qi still gathering, unflustered and unafraid, a smile appearing on their face, saying: "So it's Wu Mie Zhenren, I didn't expect you to come as well? It seems this disciple is very important to you."

"This time I wish to cooperate with you, how about it?"

Wu Mie Zhenren nodded at the Bai Hang Holy Maiden, who quickly returned behind her master, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

Fortunately she notified her master immediately; otherwise the master might not have sensed her trouble nor pinpointed her location.

"You want to cooperate with me? Jiang Tiansheng, are you joking? There seems to be no need for cooperation between us; this time you dared to intercept my disciple, and I haven't settled that account with you yet."

"Wanting to cooperate, your attitude is poor; I refuse."

Clang.

Wu Mie Zhenren drew the sword blade, pointing at the First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng, giving them no friendly expression. Wu Mie Zhenren knows exactly what sort of corpse general this is: one of the most dangerous people in the Corpse Refining Sect, with formidable strength and treacherous methods, standing out among the nine great corpse generals.

The third Corpse General and the Green‑Fur Corpse General who fell within the Tian Du Men area are far inferior to the one before them in strength, intellect, and overall; they are all beneath the First Corpse General. Wu Mie Zhenren truly does not wish to engage him, but at this moment, there is no choice.

"Wu Mie Zhenren, you'd better not refuse; I don't like being refused." The First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng's boundless corpse qi erupted, bearing down on Wu Mie Zhenren.

Wu Mie Zhenren drew the sword blade, the Technique streaking across, countering the corpse qi on their body.

The Technique and corpse qi collided, disturbing the surrounding space, causing a huge commotion, drawing many eyes here.

Inside the Mangshan Demon Palace, Diewumeng opened his eyes, looked this way, and after a few glances immediately closed them.

Luotian White Snake Clan, Bai Xinlan was also alarmed, smiling: "The Corpse Refining Sect's First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng and Tian Du Men's Wu Mie Zhenren are about to clash? Jiang Tiansheng is still so treacherous, wanting to act against the Bai Hang Holy Maiden, tsk tsk."

"Our Luotian White Snake Clan does not dare to block her nor to act against her; Jiang Tiansheng truly is audacious. Within Cangzhou, who doesn't know Tian Du Men is most protective of its own? Once you harm their disciple, Tian Du Men will hunt you to the ends of the earth."

"Especially Wu Mie Zhenren, that woman, is the most protective; the Bai Hang Holy Maiden is her most prized disciple, and she cannot allow her to get into trouble."

The news of the Bai Hang Holy Maiden entering Longshe Shan was naturally known to Bai Xinlan, and members of the Luotian White Snake Clan had all been instructed about who may pass, who may not, who should block, and who should be ignored.

Everyone coordinated seamlessly, not striking each other, which led the Bai Hang Holy Maiden to think her methods were covert and unnoticed; in fact, everything was the Luotian White Snake Clan's coordination.

"If they fight, that's best, preferably both suffer losses; then perhaps we can find a chance to kill Jiang Tiansheng."

The First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng is so important that killing him would be like disabling a pillar of the Corpse Refining Sect.

Three of the nine great corpse generals have died, leaving six; they are not easy to kill.

And the importance of the First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng is evident; Bai Xinlan also wishes to kill him, but that is human territory and cannot be acted upon lightly.

Watching the drama comes first, taking action comes second.

Inside Longshe Shan.

Qinglong Daoist's gaze turned outward, sneering: "The Corpse Refining Sect's First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng, this person indeed… came for me, approached Longshe Shan yet did not enter."

"He ultimately was still afraid, afraid of my Formation."

"This battle is unlikely to break out; Jiang Tiansheng is a cautious person and cannot act rashly."

The two opponents faced each other without yielding.

Qinglong Daoist need not watch further, already knowing the outcome; they cannot fight, each wary of the other, unable to gain the upper hand.

Moreover, Tian Du Men members are rushing here; once combat starts, Jiang Tiansheng will be forced into a passive position, and escaping will be difficult. The Tian Du Men people hate them to the core, wishing to skin them.

Far from the two, the figure of Lian Hongchen appeared, using the surrounding cover to conceal their aura, blending with the forest.

"First Corpse General Jiang Tiansheng, this person is very dangerous and troublesome; if I could swallow him, my zombie body would become even stronger."

"His body surely contains a lot of corpse qi."

She set her sights on Jiang Tiansheng's body, but unfortunately she cannot defeat him; at least for now she is not his match.

Lian Hongchen also knows Jiang Tiansheng's goal is the coffin he holds, that he seeks Longshe Shan for himself, not for Qinglong Daoist.

"He must know something, otherwise he wouldn't risk entering the Mangshan Mountain Range."

"Could it be that the Extreme Yin Corpse General told him?"

She does not wish to let others know her own affairs; the Extreme Yin Corpse General will not tell them, but Jiang Tiansheng would not enter the Mangshan Mountain Range without purpose, he is approaching Longshe Shan with intent.
