My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 524 - Roll, Dark Waves!



Chapter 524 Roll, Dark Waves!

A cup of tea and a sentence of reprimand seemed to be just Randeng being petty, but in the Primordial World, where everyone was rather thick-skinned, that could indeed be an excuse to cause trouble.

It was a very reasonable excuse.

However, just as Randeng said that he was deliberately targeting him and was still making things difficult for him, a green light flashed with electric arcs. The main character of today, the Heavenly Courts’ Water God Li Changgeng, who was about to advance to the second-stage righteous god, Taibai Jinxing, appeared in front of Randeng. Without any explanation, he protected Long Ji behind him and mocked her.

At that moment, most of the immortals outside the hall felt that the Heavenly Courts’ God of Power was a little domineering. He did not leave any face for the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School. Of course, most immortals thought that the Heavenly Courts’ Li Changgeng and Daoist Randeng were enemies. Their personal grudges were so deep that they tore each other apart on the spot. Two words: Arrogance! A few immortals thought about it carefully and realized that it was not that simple.

Putting aside the fact that she was the princess of the Heavenly Courts, the Spirit Maiden behind the Water God was at the late-stage of the Heaven Immortal realm. She was not far from the Golden Immortal realm. Her Dao realm was solid and her aura was peaceful. How could she not hold a cup of tea?

At that moment, according to the different understanding of the situation and Daoist Randeng’s understanding of the situation, he could be divided into three, four, and five levels. Considering the people on the third level, they felt that Randeng was deliberately trying to take the Water God and the Heavenly Courts down a notch because of his personal feud.

Considering the people on the fourth level, they felt that it might be someone else’s scheme. They wanted to worsen the relationship between Chan School and the Heavenly Courts.

The immortals on the fifth level were already rare. They were the eldest disciples of Jie School and a few experts of Chan School who knew that Randeng had already gone astray. They felt that Randeng was deliberately giving the Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Courts an eye-poison and taking the opportunity to cause trouble.

Li Changshou was different… He saw the negative three levels. Putting aside the appearance, there was a very troublesome core problem.

“Which position should the current Heavenly Emperor’s daughter occupy in the Heavenly Dao?” Long Ji did not have a Deity Position. She was only an Itinerant Immortal in the Heavenly Courts.

The Jade Emperor was different from the emperors of the human world. His son did not become the next Heavenly Emperor. The Heavenly Emperor was the Dao Ancestor, or rather, the Heavenly Dao appointed him.

Under such circumstances, Long Ji’s situation was slightly awkward.

Long Ji had lost her etiquette during the original tribulation and was sent to the mortal world.

Then, he was schemed against by the old fellow, the Immortal Elder Fu Yuan, who was now gone. He was forcefully betrothed to the defeated Hong Jin. In the subsequent battle, he died with Hong Jin and a wisp of his essence soul entered the God roll.

It began with the carefree body and returned to the God Ranking

Li Changshou had two guesses about Long Ji’s story when he first schemed to become a God.

Firstly, the Jade Emperor had done it on purpose. He had used Long Ji’s sacrifice to prove that he was impartial and in charge of the Three Realms on behalf of the Heavenly Dao. He had used that to establish his dignity and consolidate his position in the Heavenly Courts’ Divine Power system that had rapidly expanded after the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.

Secondly, Long Ji had actually been schemed against. Someone had used this to smear the Jade Emperor’s name.

However, after Li Changshou went to the Heavenly Courts…

As his understanding of the Jade Emperor gradually deepened, he directly rejected the former. He was very certain that someone was deliberately making things difficult for Long Ji and using that to make things difficult for the Jade Emperor. Now that the Immortal Elder Fu Yuan was dead, Li Changshou thought that Long Ji’s story had changed. He did not expect Randeng to jump out again… It was really impossible to guard against. On the way here, Li Changshou deduced with all his might and analyzed three different “plot development paths”. Soon, he figured out the key. If he had dealt with it in a more gentle manner, Randeng might have shut up for the time being. However, the cup of tea that was spilled on him became an excuse for Randeng to cause trouble. In fact, he only needed one or two immortals to say a word or two later and Randeng would be able to attack with a heavy punch. If Daoist Randeng was determined to cause trouble today, he would definitely use the words “What position is the Heavenly Courts’ Princess in the Heavenly Courts?” to further question whether the Heavenly Courts adhere to the ideology of the Heavenly Dao. It was all a trick.

If the Jade Emperor fell into such a trap, he would probably punish Long Ji heavily. Then, he would go crazy.

Therefore, Li Changshou stood up and stood in front of Randeng

In a few simple sentences, he marked Long Ji as his disciple, the grand-disciple of the Great Pure Dao, and stripped her of the system of the Heavenly Courts.

“What’s wrong with my disciple going around in the Heavenly Courts and helping me deal with the matters of the Heavenly Courts?” The excuse of blocking Randeng’s subsequent attacks was only one of the reasons.

Li Changshou took the opportunity to help Deputy Sect Master Randeng publicize. He explained that he hated Randeng because he wanted to sow discord between the two sects and protect Chan School’s reputation. That was the second reason.

Apart from that, Li Changshou had deeper considerations.

The Jade Emperor’s temperament.

Li Changshou had actually been observing the Jade Emperor and understanding him. The Jade Emperor was the living being who was closest to the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, he had gained many insights. Ever since the Jade Emperor jumped onto the Sea Eye of the East Ocean, Li Changshou had begun to worry if the Jade Emperor’s personality would be affected by the Heavenly Dao and gradually change. The Jade Emperor was dressed in white today. He had a sense of responsibility as a Heavenly Emperor and a grand wish to establish a fair order in the Three Realms, protect the weak, and restrict the strong. Li Changshou was actually a little resistant. He resisted the Jade Emperor changing into a divine robe. His eyes lost their smile and became numb. He only followed the rules of the Heavenly Dao and gradually became cold to living beings… From that perspective, Li Changshou could not let Long Ji fall into a trap.

Before Randeng took the opportunity to perform, he flipped the table. From the perspective of protecting Long Ji, it was the safest method. It was not that he had underestimated the Randeng Ancient Buddha, nor had he given up on his usual principles. Steadiness was engraved in his bones. He had to persist for ten thousand years without wavering!

There were pros and cons to everything. It was difficult to be perfect.

Li Changshou’s punishment had its drawbacks.

After all, it was a temporary strategy. It was reasonable for him to have some regrets. What are the drawbacks?

At that moment, it was as if Li Changshou was bullying Daoist Randeng in front of everyone.

Randeng had only asked a question and did not attack Long Ji. It was easy for him to use the opportunity to clear his name and increase his prestige. Thoughts quickly circulated in his heart. Li Changshou observed Randeng’s reaction. Long Ji, who was behind him, could not recover. Randeng’s face inevitably turned cold after being slapped in the face by everyone.

However, Randeng’s shrewdness was obvious at that moment. Just as Li Changshou had expected… he began to act pitiful. Daoist Randeng let out a long sigh and said slowly, “I never expected the Water God to have such a deep impression of me. I have been recognized by Saint Yu Qing and have become the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School. I have been flourishing in Chan School and have not deliberately targeted the Water God or Jie School. There is a difference between the teachings of Chan and Jie School. There has been a conflict since the ancient times. I did not sow discord. Perhaps the Water God is too close to Jie School because of his personal matters and is prejudiced.” Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

I still underestimated this fellow’s shamelessness. At that moment, he had to bypass the trap in the other party’s words. Li Changshou smiled and said, “The right and wrong are in the heart of the people. Could it be that Deputy Sect Master Randeng is here today to deliberately go against me? I know that Deputy Sect Master Randeng has always had some opinions about me. However, the Jade Emperor has specially allowed me to invite so many famous Primordial warriors to be witnesses for my advancement to the Divine Stage. Deputy Sect Master Randeng is deliberately causing trouble. He probably doesn’t take the Heavenly Courts and Ren School seriously. If that’s the case, I really have to go and see Second Aunt-Master and cry.” Randeng’s eyes focused as he said calmly, “Today, I’m here to congratulate the advancement of the Water God. I won’t say anything else. The misunderstanding between us will be resolved in the future. Perhaps I don’t have a great sense of belonging to the Dao Sect because I’m not a disciple of the Dao Sect and have not cultivated the Great Dao of the Saint. However, Sect Master, you have done me a great favor in the ancient times. I am only focused on the plan of Chan School.” If he did not know about the ancient Buddha, Li Changshou felt that he might really believe it. Unfortunately, most of the immortals around looked at Randeng with admiration and respect.

That was the price of protecting Long Ji. Li Changshou waved the horsetail whisk in his hand and said, “Deputy Sect Master Randeng’s words and actions are the same.” Then, he brought Long Ji to the side.

At that moment, Long Ji vaguely understood the crux of the matter. She, who had just completed her “growing up and entering seclusion”, looked at Li Changshou’s back with gratitude. While Li Changshou was greeting the experts of Chan School and Jie School, Long Ji raised her hand and hit her forehead. She cursed herself for being useless. At that moment, Li Changshou’s voice transmission entered Long Ji’s ears. “Later, no matter who asks, just say that your hand slipped. You can only tell the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother the exact situation. If I’m not wrong, you should have been in a daze just now. Go and prepare another cup of tea. Today, I have already recognized you as my disciple. I will include you in Ren School. Don’t think too much about anything else. I will protect you.” Long Ji was stunned. Her face flushed with excitement. She bowed to Li Changshou and left in a hurry.

At that moment, Li Changshou had successfully become the most beautiful old Daoist priest in the venue. After a few greeting and Dao salutes, he completely forgot about the matter regarding Randeng

He looked at Yun Xiao and smiled.

Then, he chatted and laughed with the personal disciples of the Saints of Jie School and Chan School. With “his own power”, he slightly merged the immortals of Chan School and Jie School. Li Changshou recalled the various opening speeches, speeches, and wedding ceremonies that he had heard in his previous life. “Thank you, Fellow Daoists, for taking the time to attend the ceremony. I, Changgeng, am extremely grateful! I’m fortunate to be alive today because of Teacher’s guidance and the concern of my two Uncle-Masters. I cannot do without the trust that the Jade Emperor had always given me. I cannot do without the help of the Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters of Chan School and Jie School. Since the establishment of the Heavenly Courts in the ancient times, the Jade Emperor had been concerned about the lives of the world. He was concerned about the suffering of the immortals and mortals. He adhered to the ideals of the Heavenly Dao and neglected sleep and food. He brought the Heavenly Courts to the situation that was about to prosper. Changgeng is here. I hope that fellow Daoists will prosper together with the Heavenly Courts and let the light of the righteous path shine on the Primordial World!” The surrounding replies were endless. They were all polite and flattering. Then, Li Changshou walked around. He first greeted every Saint’s personal disciple and chatted with them. Then, he went to find his “friends” from Ren School to chat with them.

It was not convenient for him to remind Perfected Du’e, who kept his mouth shut, to address each other as senior brothers.

After Li Changshou turned half a round and returned to Fairy Yun Xiao’s side, he was about to say a few sweet words to her and take the opportunity to ease the awkwardness after being disturbed by a certain “River God”.

Perfected Taiyi crossed his arms and walked over. He nudged Li Changshou with his shoulder and smiled. “Why are the Heavenly Courts so stingy? Why didn’t they arrange a banquet and dance? Should I invite Fairy Heng’e over for a dance?”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Are you looking for trouble?

Although he was angry, Li Changshou still tried his best to maintain a smile and said, “I actually don’t know the exact arrangements. It was decided by General Dongmu. Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters, you should be invited to the Jade Pool for a banquet later. This place should only be for the immortals and gods. It seems that the Jade Emperor has summoned many immortals.”

“I was wondering why there were no people from the dragon race or the Netherworld here.” Perfected Taiyi muttered and continued, “What authority does a second-stage orthodox god have?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “It’s just working for the Heavenly Dao. There’s no authority.” Perfected Taiyi blinked and shook his head. “Forget it. I originally wanted to nurture Ling Zhuzi to work in the Heavenly Courts. I saw that he quite likes the atmosphere of the Heavenly Courts.” “Why don’t I see Ling Zhuzi today?”

“He said that he wanted to prepare a congratulatory gift for you. He went to look for his good friend previously. I should be able to see him later.”

Perfected Taiyi pursed his lips and sighed. “Even my disciple can help outsiders. It’s indeed something that I had never thought of… I can’t let a disciple grow up.”

“It’s probably related to his character and temperament.” Li Changshou blinked and walked to the side with a smile. Perfected Taiyi chuckled and was not angry. He turned around and went to chat with the immortals of Chan School.

A few immortals of Chan School gathered beside Randeng. After all, this was a public place. Even if Chan School was privately divided into two factions and formed factions, they could not directly show it.

The fairies of Jie School were the most dazzling. However, the aura field when they gathered was too strong, causing the immortals and gods to retreat a hundred feet away.

Only Li Changshou could naturally integrate into it and communicate with Fairy Yun Xiao via voice transmission to resolve the awkwardness.

Yun Xiao reminded, “There are many guests here. Don’t stay too long. Although reputation is just fleeting, the immortals who came here today are celebrating for you. Don’t neglect them and make them unhappy.” “Ah, yes,” Li Changshou replied honestly. He held his horsetail whisk and bowed. “I will follow your instructions. I will continue to wander around.” Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with anger. Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao covered their mouths and chuckled.

The actions and expressions of the sisters were quite similar. They had dressed up meticulously and were also beautiful. Li Changshou turned around and was about to entertain the guests when the Goddess of Golden Spirit said, “Gongming… Zhao Gongming will come over later. He’s rushing back from the trichiliocosm.” “Thank you for your reminder, Senior Sister,” Li Changshou replied with a smile. He felt a little gossipy, but he did not betray Master Zhao.

After circling the hall twice, Ao Yi rushed over and reported two things to Li Changshou.

The first thing was the specific process for today.

Just as Li Changshou had said, that place was used to announce the decree. After the decree was announced, there would be a banquet and invite the immortals.

At that time, Li Changshou could invite the experts of the Dao Sect to the Jade Pool for a banquet. The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother would appear at the banquet. The Heavenly Courts’ officials, generals, and generals, the Four Seas’ Dragon Palace, the Netherworld’s Yama Lords, and the people from the Immortal Alliance were already waiting at the Jade Pool.

Li Changshou thought for a while and sent a voice transmission to Ao Yi. “Don’t invite Randeng. Later, let’s talk about how the Jade Emperor invited the disciples of the Saint of the Dao Sect.”

“Yes!” Ao Yi immediately agreed.

The second matter was related to Long Ji.

Just now, Long Ji had rushed back to the Jade Pool. She wanted to change into a formal attire and report to the Queen Mother that she wanted to formally become a disciple. The Queen Mother sent someone to ask if she could arrange for Long Ji to become a disciple at the banquet.

It was rather glorious.

Li Changshou naturally agreed. However, he was thinking about how Long Ji would enter the calamity in the future. Putting everything else aside, as the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor, if no one schemed against her, she should not have been forced to marry a defeated opponent just because she was fated. If no one said that the rise of the Zhou Dynasty was the will of the heavens, and forcefully established the right and wrong between Chan School and Jie School, Long Ji might not necessarily die in the conflict between the major sects. A wisp of her essence soul would be on the God roll.

This matter was quite crucial.

Li Changshou could clearly sense that there were many undercurrents surging today. He did not know when Ksitigarbha’s congratulatory words had appeared. He did not know if the Western Sect was here to congratulate him or to cause trouble for him.

Boom! Boom!

As he was thinking, he suddenly heard thunder outside the hall. He saw auspicious clouds gathering in the sky, and the power of the Heavenly Dao became denser.

A group of ceremonial guards slowly descended from the sky. Two rows of golden-armored Battle Gods led the way. General Dongmu, who was dressed in a luxurious robe, walked over on an auspicious cloud. His left hand held a golden Heavenly Emperor’s decree.

Finally, the important matter came.

General Dongmu appeared and arrived with the Heavenly Emperor’s decree.

In a courtyard in a corner of the Heavenly Courts, the eyelids of the Jade Emperor’s incarnation, the Heavenly Courts’ general, Qin Tianzhu, who had his eyes closed, suddenly trembled. Since the incarnation had been exposed, the Jade Emperor did not use it anymore.

However, since he was determined not to admit, the Jade Emperor did not melt the incarnation. Instead, he shut himself in the courtyard and did not come out. Later, he would repair and modify it. He could then pull it out and let it continue to be the fifth incarnation

At that moment, Qin Tianzhu, who should not have woken up, suddenly opened his eyes. Golden light flickered in his eyes. They were rather sharp. “Who is here? How dare you trespass the Heavenly Courts!” He heard a chuckle. Under a tree in the corner of the house, a faint figure gradually condensed. It was a slightly plump figure and his robe was patched, but his face was a little blurry.

That person bowed with a Dao salute and smiled. “Your Majesty, please forgive me. I took the liberty to come and hide my whereabouts just to successfully meet you today…” At that moment, the Daoist sighed softly in his heart.

“Ksitigarbha is really too restrained by the Water God. Why did he have to go through the Water God to negotiate with the Heavenly Courts?” “Disciple of the Western Sect?” Qin Tianzhu asked coldly.

The Daoist nodded slowly and smiled. “Your Majesty, can you give me half an incense stick of time… Your Majesty?” Qin Tianzhu closed his eyes. His body suddenly collapsed and turned into a pile of golden sand that scattered with the wind.

On the throne in the Jade Pool, the Jade Emperor opened his eyes and pursed his lips slightly. He continued to enjoy the singing and dancing in front of him with a smile in his eyes. The people from the Western Sect are really stupid. They even secretly went to look for the incarnation that he abandoned.

What if Changgeng misunderstood? She did not even ask to see him. She was really still living in her dream and even came to discuss with him..

If the Hall of Enlightenment was just a decoration, the Deity Positions of the Heavenly Courts would be useless. Did they think that he, the Jade Emperor, was a mountain king? Beside him, the Queen Mother asked gently, “Why are you laughing, Your Majesty?” “It’s just a small matter.” The Jade Emperor squinted and chuckled.
