Fighter of the Destiny

Who is Chen Changsheng?

He was Jiang Liu'er who was picked up from the stream by Taoist Ji.

He is a young Taoist priest from Xining who is engaged to Xu Yourong, the real daughter of Tianfeng.

He is the successor of the state religion and the successor of the pope.

He has read Daozang thoroughly, has extraordinary talent, and is a genius in swordsmanship.

But, who is he?

He looked into Old Man Tianji's eyes and asked very seriously: "Am I Prince Zhaoming?"

This is one of the most sensational yet secretive rumors in Kyoto in the past year.

No one knows the answer.

It is said that Old Man Tianji knows everything, so does he know it?

This question is simple, direct, and extremely stern, just like Su Li's sword or Wang Po's knife.

Even though Old Man Tianji was mentally prepared for this, he still narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a long time.

I don't know how long it took, but he finally spoke: "Your Majesty asked me to make a special trip to Kyoto to see you. In fact, I also wanted to ask the same question."

Chen Changsheng thought that this was the question he most wanted to know, and said, "The result?"

Old Man Tianji said: "There is no result because...you and Prince Zhaoming are not of the same age."

Chen Changsheng did not feel relaxed because of this answer, for two reasons.

He calculated carefully and found that although he and Prince Zhaoming were not of the same age, senior brother Yu Ren was just the right one. Moreover, Old Man Tianji’s words have a hidden meaning. Because the age is not right, there will be no results. So does this mean that as long as the age is right, from all aspects, he should be Prince Zhaoming?

"If you really match the age of Prince Zhaoming, this matter would be wrong."

"Why?"

"Because it's so right."

Because it is too right, it is wrong. This sounds a bit mysterious, but Chen Changsheng understood it easily. If he and Prince Akira are of the same age, the rumors in Kyoto will easily come true, and those hidden winds and thunders will surely burst, or tear apart Kyoto's shady curtain, or blow him to pieces.

What Old Man Tianji said next made Chen Changsheng wake up and his body became a little stiff.

"I know you have a senior brother, and he and Prince Zhaoming are of the same age."

Old Man Tianji looked into his eyes and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm not saying he is Prince Zhaoming."

Chen Changsheng asked: "Why?"

Old Man Tianji said: "Because he and Prince Zhaoming are completely compatible."

Chen Changsheng didn't know what to say.

"I have always admired Dean Shang's countless teachings."

Old Man Tianji said with a calm expression: "The truth is also false when it is fake, but it's a pity that you can't hide it from me."

Chen Changsheng didn't ask why he couldn't hide it from him. His mind was completely elsewhere at this time.

He remembered a volume of Taoist scriptures called the Sutra of Time, and time...is age.

"Except for age... can I be compatible with Prince Zhaoming in other aspects?"

"Yes, I'm pretty sure you are the queen of the Chen family."

Hearing these words, Chen Changsheng could no longer remain calm.

In the rumors or rumors that have been circulating in Kyoto, before saying that he is Prince Zhaomei, of course they will first mention that he is a member of the royal family.

"Why? Why is everyone sure that I am from the royal family? Is it just because my surname is Chen?"

He looked at Old Man Tianji and asked, not realizing that his tone was a little higher than usual.

This kind of emotional excitement is rare for him.

The garden was filled with thick fog, which completely isolated the conversation between him and Old Man Tianji. Absolutely no one could hear it.

"Why can I be sure that you are from the royal family?"

Old Man Tianji looked at him with complicated emotions in his eyes and said, "Because you once had a sun disk in your body."

"Sun disc?"

Chen Changsheng was no stranger to this word, although since the reign of Holy Queen Tianhai and all members of the royal family were expelled from Kyoto, few people would mention this word.

Back then, the Chen royal family came out of Tianliang County and brought peace to the world. There were successively powerful men such as Chen Xuanba and Emperor Taizong. This was because the Chen family's bloodline talent was unique. Their practice is different from that of other sects. The specific differences are of course the biggest secret of the royal family, but the word "Sun Lun" has still been passed down.

Chen Changsheng recalled the process of cultivating Taoism after arriving in Kyoto from Xining, especially the countless times he sat and took photos of himself, and shook his head: "No, I didn't find any sun disk in my body."

"That's because the sun disk in your body was destroyed a long time ago, or more accurately, exploded."

Old Man Tianji looked at him quietly. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Chen Changsheng always felt that there was some pity in his eyes.

"How is this possible? If it is true, as you said, that there was a sun disk in my body and then it exploded, why don't I feel anything?"

"That's because you were just a baby when the sun chakra in your body was destroyed."

"...But even so, why has no one found traces of the sun disc in my body before? Why didn't you find it when you met me in Kyoto last time?"

Chen Changsheng still couldn't accept this inference, even if the person who said this was Old Man Tianji.

"Because your realm was not enough at that time. As your cultivation gradually deepened, starlight entered the body and revealed the meridians more clearly. Only then can I finally confirm."

"Aren't you talking about the explosion of the sun disk? Why did you mention the meridians again?"

"You...have your meridians broken and you have always had problems with the movement of your true energy?"

Old Man Tianji looked into his eyes and asked.

Chen Changsheng was shocked and speechless.

Just like blood, blocked or broken meridians are also the biggest secret of his body.

This secret is even more terrifying, because according to the master, the problem with his meridians will directly cause him to die at the age of twenty.

He didn't expect that this secret would be seen through by Old Man Tianji so easily and then revealed.

It's just...what does the broken meridians have to do with him being a member of the royal family? What does it have to do with the sun?

Old Man Tianji raised his right hand and pointed across the table to somewhere between Chen Changsheng's chest and abdomen.

"When you were a baby, the sun disk exploded here, and then spread like a spider web, cutting off your nine meridians."

"You want to ask what is the connection between the broken meridians and the explosion of the sun disc?"

"Your broken meridians are the traces of the sun's explosion, and they are the most direct evidence."

"Among countless people in the world, you are the only one who has this kind of damaged meridians."

"So you are from the Chen royal family."

"Of course, you are a very unfortunate royal."

"Logically speaking, you should have died as a baby the moment the sun disk exploded."

"But you survived, which is a miracle in itself."

The garden was quiet.

The fog became extremely thick.

The scene was as warm as spring, and suddenly it was as cold as winter.

Chen Changsheng was silent for a long time without speaking.

It wasn't until a long time later that he looked at Old Man Tianji and asked, "But... he will still die, right?"

This time, it was Old Man Tianji's turn to be silent.
