My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 427 - Mischievous Imp

Chapter 427 Mischievous Imp

“There are changes in the Xuandu City. I will return in a hundred years.” The Great Daoist Master has gone to Xuandu City? He can only return after a hundred years? After receiving the jade token that Little Silver had sent to the Water God Residence, Li Changshou’s Dao heart tensed up almost instantly. He felt a little anxious.

At that moment, the Great Daoist Master went to Xuandu City. Without the support of the “conventional strongest combat power”, the pressure on Li Changshou’s shoulders increased.

Little Silver had come to the Water God Residence to send a message. It should have been ordered by the Grand Supreme Elder.

In other words, during the period when the Great Daoist Master was not in the five continents, he, the little Daoist Master, had to shoulder the responsibility of Ren School.

When Li Changshou attacked Lu Ya or encountered any dangerous situations, he could not list the Great Daoist Master as a combat power.

Li Changshou stood up and paced back and forth beside the pool on the Black Pool Peak.

He wanted to stop Ling’e’s training, but when he looked at the image in the pool, he saw that Ling’e’s face was filled with anticipation and seriousness. He was a little hesitant.

“What’s wrong, Water God?” Bai Ze held a teacup and asked, “Are you worried about something?”

“The Great Daoist Master went to Xuandu City. There seems to be some trouble there.” Li Changshou returned to his seat and picked up the white teapot that he had refined out of boredom. He smelled the fragrance of wolfberries and mourned the last stage of his life in his previous life.

He had taken good care of his kidney in his previous

life.

At the same time, Li Changshou secretly observed the subtle changes in Bai Ze’s expression and gaze.

If Bai Ze cared about the Great Daoist Master’s threat to him, it would mean that he had yet to settle down. At that moment, Bai Ze’s should be analyzing how much additional pressure his faction would suffer after the Great Daoist Master left. If Bai Ze had already decided to be loyal to Ren School, he would probably ask... “Are the otherworldly demons in the Xuandu City that strong? They actually need the Great Daoist Master to personally guard them.” Bai Ze pinched his fingers and deduced. Then, he shook his head. “That place is already at the edge of the Heavenly Dao. The power of the Heavenly Dao is too weak. I can’t deduce anything.” Li Changshou smiled and put down the tea pot. “I’ve never been there either. I don’t know what the situation in the Xuandu City is like, but there should be experts who can threaten the Primordial World. When the Pangu God created the world, he killed 3,000 Connate Godfiends. Those that escaped should be quite troublesome.”

“Don’t worry. Connate Godfiends ultimately cannot become Saints,” Bai Ze said with a smile. “In the Chaos Sea, the Dao and spirits are mixed. The Great Dao is incomplete. It is extremely difficult to cultivate to perfection.” Li Changshou nodded slowly and sighed. “From now on, the Great Daoist Master won’t be around. It’s the real trial for Ling’e.” Bai Ze frowned and muttered, “Water God, do you have any misunderstandings about the word trial?”

“Huh?” Li Changshou scanned his surroundings.

The corners of Bai Ze’s mouth twitched a few times. “Ah, Ling’e is indeed in a dangerous situation after suddenly losing the protection of a top-notch mighty figure.”

Li Changshou immediately agreed. “Mr. Bai, do you think I should let Ling’e return to the sect temporarily?”. “There’s no need.” Bai Ze smiled and said, “The so-called trial is meant for gaining experience and training to make one’s Dao heart reach perfection. Water God, you had been too protective of Ling’e. With Ling’e’s intelligence and the safety measures that you have put in place can allow her to stay unharmed. Water God, don’t forget that Ling’e still has the Golden Immortal Tribulation. If you take the appropriate risks now, you can reduce the danger of the Golden Immortal Tribulation. Comparatively, you should take advantage of it.”

“Okay.”

Li Changshou nodded. Actually, he knew those principles. At that moment, he was just using Bai Ze to convince himself.

At that moment, he secretly deployed the paper effigy. On the basis of the original paper effigy Immortal Bean army, he sent two Golden Immortal paper effigies and two Heavenly Constellation Earth Emanations Spirit Explosion Arrays over. He reminded, “Mr. Bai, if Ling’e has any ominous signs, please inform me in time.”

“Water God, don’t worry. Water God, don’t worry.” Bai Ze agreed immediately. He naturally knew that the Water God was not joking. At that moment, Ling’e had already entered a more prosperous town in the East Continent. She did not dare to ask where the Five Village Temple was. She first stayed in the town and began to secretly collect information about the Five Village Temple... It was not easy for an ordinary cultivator from the Ren School to find the Five Village Temple and meet the Primordial Immortal Protector.

Although the danger factor was small, it was indeed quite difficult.

Li Changshou felt uneasy when the Great Daoist Master suddenly went out.

The plan to write “Xuanya’s Battle Notes”, which was almost completed, was temporarily stopped by him. He allowed Youqin Xuanya to rest at the sect gate for the time being. He would choose a location to shoot the ninth “short film” later.

Speaking of Youqin Xuanya, Li Changshou felt even more admiration for her in the past two years. From the “pretentiously aloof girl” who had always had a cold expression and was not good at expressing anything, her acting skills had become more refined today. She had even successfully deceived Ling’e... The future was promising and useful. At that moment, Youqin Xuanya completely understood what she was doing with Li Changshou. The plan to become the spokesperson of the Heavenly Courts’ Heavenly Soldiers was to promote the Heavenly Courts in the five continents and the trichiliocosm of the Primordial World.

Li Changshou could sense the change in Youqin Xuanya’s mentality. In the beginning, she was a little resistant. Gradually, she accepted it. Then, she believed that it was a contribution to the stability of the world and to the righteous path of the world. She also invested her passion into it.

However, what Li Changshou did not know was...

At dusk, the words that he had said while standing by the lake of the Little Qiong Peak were praised by Youqin Xuanya. “Xuanya, it’s not easy to become a role model for many people. You have to treat yourself seriously and take into account your image at all times. You have to be righteous and chivalrous. This matter will last for at least three to five hundred years. You have to come to your senses and gain some enlightenment at the end of the day.”

That day, Youqin Xuanya stood by the lake and thought for a long time. It was only when the night sky was filled with stars that she made her promise in the most confident tone she ever had in her life thus far.

“Senior Brother Changshou, I will do my best to do this!”

Li Changshou was gratified that she did not say that she would “help Senior Brother do this well”. Youqin Xuanya had obtained many unexpected gains from the “opening ceremony” two years ago, to the “escape from the deserted island” that Ling’e had participated in.

Among them, the greatest gain was seeing the “numerous sides” to Li Changshou.

Youqin Xuanya could not take in his unconstrained ideas, exquisite designs, incredible operations, and endless ideas.

The originally simple and solid “Senior Brother Changshou” quickly filled her heart. Therefore, as soon as she received Li Changshou’s voice transmission, Youqin Xuanya could not help but fly out of the Cave Abode and rush towards the Black Pool Peak.

In the past few years, Youqin Xuanya often went to the Black Pool Peak to train her acting skills and learn some ‘valiant’ poses. Seeing Youqin Xuanya fly over, Bai Ze casually opened a crack in the array formation around Black Pool Peak, allowing her to reach the pool without any obstructions. An icy blue light shone in the pool. There was a different kind of beauty there. “Senior Brother Changshou, Mr. Bai.”

“Xuanya is here? What would you like to drink?” Bai Ze smiled and greeted her. He gestured for Youqin Xuanya to sit beside Li Changshou.

Li Changshou turned to look at Youqin Xuanya and smiled. “Is it because of my voice transmission?”

“Yes... Thank you for your efforts, Mr. Bai.” Youqin Xuanya tidied her hair beside her ear and walked to Li Changshou’s seat. She folded her skirt and sat on the wooden stool. Her gaze was also attracted by the scene in the pool.

Youqin Xuanya asked softly, “Senior Brother Changshou, do you need me to improve anything?”

Li Changshou said, “It’s not peaceful outside recently. You’ve already done well. Don’t worry.”

Bai Ze chuckled. “What an uneasy...”

“Are you not letting Ling’e return to the sect?” Youqin Xuanya asked in concern.

“There’s no need for that for now. The matter is not that serious yet.” Li Changshou was about to explain more to her when his heart fluctuated slightly. Someone from the Heavenly Courts’ Water God Residence wanted to see him.

Li Changshou said, “Wait a moment. There are some matters in the Heavenly Courts.”

After saying that, he closed his eyes and focused his attention on the paper effigy in the Water God Residence. He undid the restrictions around the study.

This time, the Heavenly General did not report anything outside. The wooden door was banged open, and Elder Moon, who was dressed in a red wedding robe, rushed in. “Water God! Quick! Something has happened to His Majesty!”

Li Changshou was shocked.

Da-da-da-da!

Rapid footsteps sounded in the Hall of Marriage. More than ten figures rushed over to the rear hall of the Hall of Marriage.

However, when they arrived at the entrance of the rear hall, they were stopped by a few righteous gods. “The Water God has ordered that no one is allowed to enter the place where the Heavenly Dao is important. Everyone, please wait here for the news.” The dozen or so immortals who had heard the question stopped in their tracks and looked forward. In front of the sea of stars formed by the marriage clay figurines, Li Changshou, General Dongmu, Princess Long Ji, and Elder Moon were gathered together, blocking the view behind them. The rich power of the Heavenly Dao in this place also isolated their immortal senses. At that moment, General Dongmu frowned and pondered. “What should we do?”

Long Ji’s slender fingers wrapped around a strand of hair in front of her, and her little face was filled with conflict.

Li Changshou pondered for a while and asked, “How long has this situation been going on for?”

“Less than a year!” Elder Moon replied firmly, “The last time I checked, it was ten months ago. At that time, there was no such abnormality.” Long Ji asked softly, “Teacher, what should we do? Are we going to let Elder Moon use the scissors?”

“Um, I wouldn’t dare!”

Elder Moon was about to cry from anxiety. “I don’t have the guts to ruin His Majesty!”

“Hush.” Li Changshou looked at the door of the rear hall and set up a soundproof barrier. Then, he frowned and stared at the clay figurine in front of him.

The Jade Emperor is only ten years old in the mortal world, right?

Why...

At that moment, red strings had been tied to the hands and feet of the clay figurine of the reincarnation of the Jade Emperor that he had used to undergo the reincarnation tribulation. Apart from the red string of the Queen Mother that he had already tied, there were five more red strings! As expected of the Jade Emperor. He has such grand aspirations at such a young age. Could the Jade Emperor’s obsession before his soul reincarnated be...

Long Ji sighed softly with a complicated expression. “I don’t know how sad Mother will be when she finds out.”

“This is a trial sent by the Heavenly Dao,” Li Changshou said seriously. “Your Highness, don’t think too much. His Majesty and the Queen Mother are respectful to each other. They are also the example of the people of the Heavenly Marriage.” General Dongmu hurriedly asked, “Water God, are we really going to...”

“There’s no hurry. It’s best to let His Majesty make a decision on his own.” Li Changshou thought carefully and said, “Elder Moon, pull out the clay figurines of the women that correspond to the red strings and take a look.”

Elder Moon hurriedly said, “Ah, I’ll do it now.” At that moment, Elder Moon’s fingers swayed quickly. A few clay figurines flew over from the sea of stars and floated around the clay figurine that the Jade Emperor had used to undergo the tribulation.

Li Changshou looked at them one by one. Apart from the Queen Mother who had already locked her marriage with the Jade Emperor, the other five corresponded...

A female guard of the General’s Residence, a lady who was playing music in the teahouse, two leading ladies of the brothel, and the daughter of a wealthy family in the same city.

Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief and muttered, “Fortunately, they’re all women.”

The three immortals beside him were shocked.

“This is at least in line with the Great Dao of Yin and Yang,” Li Changshou said seriously. “Now that His Majesty is experiencing the first awakening of love, some thoughts are normal. There’s no need to make a fuss. Don’t worry, the red strings should fall off on their own.”

General Dongmu frowned. “What if it doesn’t fall off? If His Majesty really has three wives and four concubines during the Tribulation Transcendence, could it be that when His Majesty returns, the Heavenly Courts will also... This is against the Heavenly rules.”

Elder Moon said, “The Queen Mother will probably kill me!”

Long Ji also said, “If he marries too many mortal women, it will indeed make Father’s situation awkward. It will also affect the reputation of the Heavenly Courts. Teacher, only you can stop this.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Li Changshou asked, “Has Queen Mother met His Majesty during the Tribulation Transcendence?”

“She had seen him since she was young,” Elder Moon said. “However, Her Majesty’s incarnation always teases His Majesty’s. Both of them have yet to have a good impression of each other. According to the story set by the Goddess previously, they will only have sparks after two years. Then, they will have feelings for each other.”

“I can’t wait!” Li Changshou’s eyes glistened brightly, and his white hair danced in the wind. He said firmly, “Change it now. Let the Goddess and His Majesty’s bodies encounter each other recently and plant feelings. That’s the best plan.” General Dongmu asked, “Since there’s a good plan, there must be a good plan.”

“I’ll do the middle plan later,” Li Changshou said. “I’ll secretly move those women away.”

“What’s the plan?” Long Ji’s eyes were filled with curiosity.

Li Changshou thought, ‘I promised not to use the handsome version of Second Senior Brother first.’

This matter was huge. It concerned the stability of the Heavenly Courts and the reputation of the Heavenly Courts. It was only a family matter between the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. If the Queen Mother had not descended to the mortal world, there would naturally be no need to care about her at that moment. However, the Queen Mother had a decree in front of her and had even personally chased after her. The Jade Emperor still had to transform into the “manager of time”. That was a little inappropriate. Li Changshou and General Dongmu discussed and decided on the strategy for this matter. General Dongmu was in charge of refuting the rumors in the Heavenly Courts. Li Changshou had descended to the mortal world to arrange many matters. Elder Moon was in charge of watching the changes in the red string of marriage in the Hall of Marriage.

Before the Water God’s incarnation returned to the Water God Residence, Li Changshou opened his eyes beside the Black Pool Peak’s pool.

Youqin Xuanya was meditating beside him. Bai Ze went to the kitchen to get busy. Li Changshou called out to Bai Ze. The latter carried the plate of immortal fruits that he had just completed and floated back. He smiled and said, “Has the Water God encountered any trouble? Tell me and let me be happy.”

“Mr. Bai, do you know about marriage?”

“Well, I know a little about it.” Bai Ze frowned and said, “Although I have never found a Dao companion or encountered marriage, I have seen many love and hatred... Did something happen to the Jade Emperor’s reincarnation?”

“I really can’t hide it from you, Mr. Bai.” Li Changshou sighed and explained the matter in detail. He thought of a solution with Bai Ze. “There are indeed only three strategies,” Bai Ze said. “The most reliable one is the middle strategy. The Jade Emperor descended to the mortal world with the mentality of playing around for the rest of his life. Even if he has pledged his life to the Queen Mother’s tribulation, he might still have someone else.” Li Changshou said, “Why do I feel that you’re mocking me?”

“Water God, you’re overthinking. You’re overthinking.” Youqin Xuanya asked softly, “Why don’t you talk to the Jade Emperor’s body directly?” Li Changshou and Bai Ze were stunned. Youqin Xuanya said, “The Jade Emperor’s body is currently in his youth. He needs guidance. Senior Brother, why don’t you transform into a teacher?” Li Changshou pondered for a while and thought carefully for a while. He said, “If only the Great Daoist Master was here. It would be most appropriate for the Great Daoist Master to guide His Majesty. Why don’t you do it, Mr. Bai?”

“No, no, no.” Bai Ze hurriedly waved his hand. “You can’t do that. It’s more appropriate for me to keep an eye on Ling’e’s safety for you.” Li Changshou sighed and said, “I’m a minister. It’s really not appropriate.” As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of Dao runes circulated in Li Changshou’s heart. The Dao runes trembled and the Great Dao hummed. A familiar word condensed quietly, causing Li Changshou to not dare to show any disdain. “Go.”
