My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 233 Little Elder Moon of Immortal Du Sect (Ren School)

Chapter 233 Little Elder Moon of Immortal Du Sect (Ren School)

Is it alright... for me to request Perfected Huang Long to do this?

Li Changshou kept thinking.

Although it was a small matter, he was not too familiar with Perfected Huang Long. He was still worried.

He was mainly afraid that Perfected Huang Long would fall for someone else’s tricks again.

Li Changshou had two main reasons for using the immortals of Chan School to relay the message and build the reputation of the Sea God of the South Ocean.

The first was to spread the word so that the Western Sect disciples would try their best to think about ancient figures and thus, he could protect his true body.

Secondly, he wanted to use the Chan School as a smokescreen to cover for himself.

If that was the case, the information that the Western Sect had obtained should be like that...

They would find out that the Great Daoist Master of Ren School had appeared in the territory of the Sea God Sect in the South Ocean.

The Second Prince of the dragon race, Ao Yi, turned out to be the Second Sect Master of the Sea God Sect in the South Ocean. On top of that, they would also learn that the Sea God of the South Ocean had a good relationship with the outstanding disciple of Jie School, Zhao Gongming.

The immortals of the Chan School praised the South Ocean Sea God’s character, and seemed to be on good terms with him.

In that case, if the Western Sect wanted to attack him, they would probably be more reserved and worried...

Most importantly, there would be no negative effects.

Li Changshou shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

He began to restore his fake body in the Sea God Sect’s territory to deal with the Soul-Conquering Butterfly.

Besides that, Li Changshou had also taken some emergency measures.

For example, he could set up the chain restrictions of all the paper effigies with a single thought. He could break the connection between the power of his essence soul and his essence soul at any time. He could also activate the self-exploding mechanism in the paper effigy library of Anshui City...

Wait.

Next, he only had to be careful and conscientious. Unless General Dongmu of the Heavenly Courts and the big shots of the Three Sects paid a visit, he would make the paper effigies remain motionless.

Those were all conventional methods.

The trump card in the matter of self-defense was his Great Daoist Master who was the core deterrence.

Since it was a trump card, he definitely could not use it easily. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he could not use it at the crucial moment...

In the next two and a half years, Li Changshou spent the rest of his life quietly while being on guard.

Occasionally, he would see some people with strange whereabouts in the Sea God Sect’s territory. However, most of them were just investigating and nothing happened.

Daoist Wen Jing did not send any more messages. She was focused on hiding. That made Li Changshou feel much more at ease.

There was no need for Daoist Wen Jing to do such a small thing for the Ren School. All he needed her to do behind the scenes was... create a big scene...

During that period of time, the dragon race had entered a period of suffering.

The outside world was in chaos, and there were conflicts between the Transformed Dragons’ and the ‘Flood Dragons’. The internal rulers of the dragon race were gradually divided into two camps.

Ao Yi and Li Changshou had talked about that a few times.

Li Changshou’s suggestion was to wait and see what would happen. He would not side with the Dragon King or make a speech. He would confuse his position and stand firmly beside the East Ocean Dragon King. If it was Ao Yi during his youth, he would definitely have a go all out and fight! Ahem!

That would definitely be a dragon’s heart that would go to the Sun and Moon to save its guts!

However, even though Ao Yi was still a young man, he was a mature dragon who already had a lover. He was no longer the reckless young man of the past.

He had learned to observe the situation quietly, and he had learned to make deductions secretly. Gradually, he became more stable...

Li Changshou was not just waiting passively.

Although he had to wait for the Western Sect to attack again and the internal conflicts of the dragon race to erupt, he could make many arrangements before that.

For example, he had arranged for Ao Yi to establish a network of connections within the dragon race. He wanted to secretly befriend some of the powerful and competent dragon leaders who did not have high statuses,

For example, Li Changshou got General Dongmu to arrange for a few Heavenly Generals to patrol the four seas and communicate with the members of the Dragon Palace.

When the situation in the Dragon Palace had stabilized, Li Changshou had also returned to his daily life. He generated an income through alchemy and perfected the defense system of Little Qiong Peak. He also took time to reward his junior sister.

He naturally had to prepare for the Golden Immortal Tribulation.

Meanwhile, Wang Fugui, ahem, Exalted Wang Qing, the Heaven Immortal realm expert in the sect, was already on the verge of transcending the tribulation. After attaining a perfected Dao Heart and having no regrets in life, his Dao Heart was already at the edge of the tribulation. Li Changshou reckoned that he would definitely undergo the tribulation within 50 years.

That made Li Changshou feel rather emotional.

All the hard work he had done for the extremely vicious and evil young Grandmaster and the shy Pure Yang, Wang Qing, were not in vain!

With a reference, he would definitely be much more confident!

What was worth mentioning was that Little Grandmaster had really moved to the Wang Qing Residence.

As an “unequal exchange”, Jiu Jiu, who was hiding from his Little Grandmaster, had completely settled down in the Little Qiong Peak’s chess room.

In a sense, Little Qiong Peak seemed to have... gained something!

It was a pity that the luxurious pavilion’s defensive array formation was destroyed. Li Changshou even wanted to dismantle the array foundations there and modify it into a chess room.

On this day, while Jiu Jiu was drunk and cultivating in seclusion, Li Changshou called Ling’e who had been cultivating more diligently, over to the straw hut by the lake, together with Xiong Lingli, who had been working hard to improve but lacked talent in cultivating the Essence Soul Dao.

Li Changshou set up the boundaries and activated the array formations. He looked at the two girls in front of him, who were majestic and delicate respectively, and instantly felt much more relaxed.

“Today, I will teach Ling’e about cultivation techniques and how to build a foundation with the Immortal Ascension Dao Foundation. Lingli, you are cultivating the Dao of Essence Soul, but you can listen by the side. If you have any doubts, feel free to ask. Don’t be too reserved.”

Ling’e and Xiong Lingli agreed at the same time. “Yes!”

Then, Li Changshou began to talk about the Dao of cultivation and comprehension of the cultivation technique.

In order for the two of them to understand more clearly, he went through all sorts of tricks of different depths. He was used to using some strange metaphors. Sometimes, he would make Ling’e laugh uncontrollably. Listening to Senior Brother’s lecture was actually one of Ling’e’s favorite things. Unfortunately, as her cultivation level gradually increased, the gap between each of her senior brother’s lectures became longer. That was not because Li Changshou was slacking or because he wanted to distance himself. The truth was that his lectures were getting more and more profound. Lingle needed more time to digest it. From dawn to dusk, Ling’e asked a few questions about cultivation, and Li Changshou answered them in detail.

Xiong Lingli also wanted to ask a few questions, but after holding it in for a long time, she did not dare to trouble the Sea God. In the end, she only dared to ask unorthodox and suspicious... questions about the Primordial World. “Cousin, can I ask a question that is unrelated to cultivation?”

“Of course. Just ask.”

“Why do I feel that the spiritual beasts on the Little Qiong Peak are much more delicious than the ones I caught when I was hunting outside?”

Li Changshou could not help but laugh.

Ling’e smiled and said, “Of course it’s because you raised them well.”

“Not exactly.”

Li Changshou smiled and shook his head.

“Everything in the world has its own Dao. The same applies for both mortals and immortals. Ling Li’s question might seem like a joke on the surface, but in reality, there is a reason behind it. It had been a long time since ancient times. Now that the human Qi Refinement cultivators were in charge of the Dao, many people enjoyed roasting and frying food. The spiritual beasts that we can buy directly in the town are in fact no worse than the wild spiritual beasts outside. In fact, they have long been selected by many Qi Refinement cultivators for nurturing and improvement of their taste. As for the spiritual beasts that had not been selected over the long years, most of them naturally taste worse than the spiritual beasts that had been chosen to receive the legacy. Therefore, there is no need to pursue novelty. The ancients have already made a selection for us. This is a Dao. The Dao is hidden in the world, in the cutlery, and in the sand... Forget it, I won’t say anymore.”

“Wow...”

Xiong Lingli held her small face with her large hands, and her eyes shone with admiration.

Ling’e opened her mouth slightly and looked at her senior brother in a daze...

She liked that Senior Brother could talk about logic and the Dao regardless of what the topic

was!

Of course, she could not say that directly. Night had arrived. The moon and stars were sparse. Li Changshou got Xiong Lingli to bring a spiritual beast over and explained the secret manual of Changshou’s spiritual beast cultivation. He helped Lingle and Xiong Lingli to open up a new level of Primordial World Food Catering.

While they were enjoying their meal, a five-foot-tall figure arrived outside the Little Qiong Peak on a cloud. Seeing that there was no one around, he dashed into the secret isolation array that the Little Qiong Peak had upgraded and landed by the lake. Uh?

Jiu Wu was stunned when he saw Li Changshou, Ling’e, and Xiong Ling’e eating happily.

“It’s rare. Changshou is not in the Pill Chamber.”

The short Daoist hesitated for a moment before landing on the cloud.

This time, he had promised the elder that he would definitely settle that matter!

Li Changshou had already seen some hesitation on Jiu Wu. He said a few words to Lingle and Ling Li and took the initiative to welcome their Uncle-Master Jiu Wu.

The moment they met, Li Changshou noticed something fishy from Uncle-Master Jiu Wu’s evasive gaze.

“Uncle-Master, did something happen between Uncle-Grandmaster and my Grandmaster?”

“No, no.” Jiu Wu hurriedly shook his head. He knew that he did not need to beat around the bush in front of his disciple-nephew...

It was easier to end up having Li Chagngshou make arrangements for him if he were to beat around the bush.

Jiu Wu looked around and said in a low voice, “Changshou, did you stop supplying the Ambition Pills to the Hundred Mortal Hall in the past few months?”

“Yes.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Recently, I’ve been preparing to undergo Tribulation Transcendence. I don’t have much time to refine pills. Furthermore, according to the elders who are in charge of external affairs, it has been two months. Since none of the elders or executives went to the Hundred Mortal Hall to exchange for the Ambition Pill, I stopped supplying them. Logically speaking, there should still be some reserves of the Ambition Pill in the Hundred Mortal Hall.”

“Well...” Jiu Wu smiled awkwardly and said in a low voice, “Actually, there are still elders who want the Ambition Pill. However, because of... their pride... Well, you know.”

Li Changshou said calmly, “Uncle-Master, are you here for the Ambition Pill?”

“That’s right.” Jiu Wu nodded and smiled. “One of our elders has a friend...” “Here.” Li Changshou took out a jade bottle and sighed. “This is the last bottle of Ambition Pills. There are thirty of them. Uncle-Master, you must give them away carefully.”

Jiu Wu smiled happily. He grabbed the jade bottle and took out two treasure pouches.

“This is a thank-you gift from that elder. I will not take my share this time... Eh? Wait a while. Is this the last jar? Disciple-Nephew, are you not going to refine the Ambition Pill in the future?”

“That’s right,” Li Changshou said. “I’ve already said a few times that I won’t refine the Ambition Pill anymore but I’m always troubled by the fact that they had been asking for favors. At the very least, I won’t refine these useless pills before transcending the tribulation.”

Jiu Wu’s expression turned serious when he heard that. He said, “It’s my fault. Alright, you don’t have to worry about it in the future. I won’t initiate anything like that anymore!”

Li Changshou nodded with a smile. He also let go of that little worry.

The matter about marriage interfered with one’s principles. Just like how he taught Ling’e, it was actually a rather large karma.

If the Ambition Pill was to help those old immortals unleash their masculinity, restore their confidence, and find love again, it would naturally be a good karma and a good deed.

Even without merit, he could earn many favors.

However, once the Xiong Xin Pill was leaked, it would be a bad thing if it was used for “snatching” the fairies and suppressing the male immortals.

Now that he had used the excuse of transcending the tribulation to stop, he would not offend anyone...

After sending Jiu Wu off, Li Changshou hummed a tune that Ling’e frequently played and floated towards the Pill Chamber.

“From tomorrow onwards, I will be a fulfilling Qi Refinement cultivator. I will practice cultivation, alchemy, and work hard to live forever. From tomorrow onwards, I will be concerned about the spirit trees and immortal beans. I have a small mountain, facing the Heavenly Courts. The flowers bloom in spring.” From tomorrow onwards, I don’t have to be the Little Elder Moon of the Immortal Du Sect anymore.

Li Changshou sighed softly. Just as he was meditating in front of the Pill Furnace and preparing to refine a Pill Furnace used to make pills with special effects for Ling’e to transcend her tribulation, his heart suddenly trembled.

There were guests at the Sea God Temple.

His spiritual will landed on the statue of a temple and he immediately saw the familiar back view...

It was General Dongmu. Li Changshou carefully identified the aura of General Dongmu. He paid attention to the details and compared them. After confirming that it was General Dongmu, he activated the paper effigy underground and appeared in the form of a kind-looking old immortal. He exchanged a few words with him.

This time, General Dongmu did not sit and drink tea. Instead, he pulled Li Changshou to a corner and chuckled...

Why does it feel like General Dongmu, the future Pure Yang Sword Immortal Lu Dongbin, is a little... indecent?

“Sea God, guess what I brought you this time?”

An official decree to appoint me as a legitimate god?

That’s not right. If that is the case, it would be a grand announcement, a blessing with immortal light, and a musical group!

This is a good opportunity to showcase the power of the Heavenly Court. I cannot waste it like this.

What else could there be?

Is it possible that...

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Could it be a treasure that can reconstruct a Dao Body?” “That’s not it.” General Dongmu shook his head gently and said, “Most of those treasures are not very precious, but they are very rare. Moreover, no one specially went to collect them, so it’s hard to find them. Sea God, didn’t you ask previously if the Heavenly Courts have any elixirs that have the same effect as the Acacia Tree?”

Li Changshou suddenly had a bad premonition.

“Yes...”

“Hehe, I’ll show you a little treasure!”

General Dongmu touched his wide sleeve and took out a basin that Li Changshou found familiar, but was much smaller...

This rich Heavenly Dao karma, the mysterious Dao runes...

This is not it!

In the dream he had when he first met his old friend Elder Moon, Elder Moon had held onto the Acacia Tree and poked him with it!

Li Changshou was still in a daze but General Dongmu had already stuffed the tree in Li Changshou’s hand and smiled.

“When His Majesty heard the Sea God’s request, he waved his hand and said, ‘I’ll give Changgeng a Merit Plant. You may just send it over. Due to the fact that the treasure tree had not been nurtured properly, I kept it from you, Fellow Daoist Sea God. I finally succeeded today. I took it from Elder Moon overnight and I’m here to deliver it to you!”

As he spoke, General Dongmu patted Li Changshou’s arm. “Fellow Daoist, this is a Heavenly Dao treasure, which is a Postnatal Merit numinous treasure. It’s bestowed by His Majesty!”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

“I!”

“Huh?”

“Thank you.” Li Changshou held onto the Little Acacia Tree, which was filled with merit, and smiled gratefully as he gritted his teeth. “Thank you, Your Majesty! I shall thank you here!”

General Dongmu smiled happily. “I’ll go back then. This treasure... Use it well, use it properly.”
