My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 250 - The Traditional Art of Ren School



Chapter 250 The Traditional Art of Ren School

The Great Daoist Master and the disciples of the Saints of the two sects discussed the Dao for two days and one night before dispersing the barrier and parting ways. It could be seen that the “listening to the Dao” experience of the immortals of the Chan School and Jie School was quite good. The disciples of the Saints on both sides seemed to respect the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du even more.

As the saying went, there was no order in the Dao. The strong would be the king.

Ahem, there is no order of seniority in learning. The accomplished are the masters! The Great Daoist Master was born from the natural Dao of the Grand Pure One, which was extremely mysterious and indescribable.

Just the words “follow your heart and you will achieve ease and perfection” made a disciple of a Saint like Guang Chengzi fall into deep thought for a long time…

The Great Daoist Master did not return to the Tushita Palace directly.

He only said that he would let Li Changshou settle the matter of the ceremony and appear again in the future. Afterward, he left to go to an unknown place.

Let’s not talk about the Three Sects for now…

The dragons were really excited this time.

The moment the dragon race’s negative karma on Ao Yi dissipated, the dragons that had sunk into the endless abyss seemed to have clutched onto a straw and saw a ray of light…

They sent many gifts that day. A few of the male dragons who were present queued up to go forward and leave a lasting impression on the Sea God.

How could there only be one commander under the Sea God?

There should at least be a few deputy commanders, generals, and team leaders, right?

With Ao Yi successfully forming close ties with the Sea God as an example, the dragon race was excited. They really wanted to cozy up to the Sea God of the South Ocean!

To the dragon race, the Sea God of the South Ocean, no, the words ‘South Ocean’ should be removed.

To the dragon race, the Sea God was no longer as simple as a partner.

For that, the dragon race immediately prepared a large number of treasures and quickly arranged them. The hundreds of Sea Clan beauties that were directly brought out from the South Ocean Dragon Palace were one of the gifts!

The way the dragon race gave gifts was also unique.

They knew that Li Changshou was an important figure of Ren School and an important official of the Heavenly Courts. For the sake of his reputation, he definitely could not accept hundreds of beauties.

Therefore, they gave Li Changshou a… mansion with a sea view!

The mansion was located on an Immortal Island in the South Ocean. It was surrounded by water and was made of crystals and gems.

There was a main hall and four side halls in the mansion. There was a curtained soft tent in the hall, a hot spring, a pearl lantern… All the luxurious items that Li Changshou could think of were inside the hall. It was extremely opulent!

As for the hundreds of Sea Clan beauties, they were just maidservants that could be replaced by a new batch once every thousand years! Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Indeed, the “poverty” of the Little Qiong Peak had limited his pursuit of pleasure. What’s the point of having such a huge and luxurious Cave Abode?

Junior Sister, Master and I can’t live there either. It’s not as carefree as the few straw huts by the lake.

If those expensive items were exchanged for precious materials that he could refine into a top-quality defensive array formation… Li Changshou might just accept it smilingly even if he was given only a brick bed.

Of course, it would be best if there was a function that allowed the size of the mansion to be adjusted at will. At the crucial moment, he could shrink it, put it away and run…

Li Changshou tactfully rejected that gift and accepted all the treasures.

The discount was just a joke.

He was now a legitimate god of the Heavenly Courts. He had to pay attention to his image.

However, the dragon race felt uneasy because the gift was not delivered. Ao Yi was also told to talk to Li Changshou and get him to accept more benefits…

In the end, Li Changshou could only promise that he would choose a place in the four seas later and build his Sea God Cave Abode. At that time, he would inform the Dragon Palace in advance.

The dragon race was finally relieved.

However, before things settled down, another wave arose.

‘Wave’ is a noun here.

On the night before the Sea God Ceremony was about to end, Li Changshou looked at the beautiful female fiendish spirits floating in the backyard of the Sea God Temple. He almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

It is reasonable for the dragon race to cause trouble. Why is the Netherworld causing trouble too?

Did someone spread rumors about the Sea God being lustful?

A few experts from the Netherworld who were of the Magi race rubbed their hands and chuckled incessantly in front of him.

Those fiendish spirits were also carefully selected among the countless fiendish spirits in the Netherworld that could not be reincarnated.

All of them were extremely beautiful. Their long hair covered their faces, and their sleeves fluttered in the wind. They looked extremely flirtatious!

Of course, the main point was that their faces were beautiful, and their figures were voluptuous…

Li Changshou smiled bitterly and said, “Everyone, what are you doing?”

Ox-head, who had taken off his headgear, rubbed his hands together. “Lord Sea God, it’s our first time meeting each other. We don’t have any specialties that are suitable to be presented as gifts in the Netherworld. Please have a look, are these… alright?”

“Do you have any requests?” Li Changshou said seriously, “When I first started cultivating, my master kept mentioning that the Lady of Earth created the Six Paths of Reincarnation. If the Netherworld has any difficulties, please tell me. As long as it’s within my means, I will definitely help after some consideration.” One of the Magi could not help but mutter softly, “Well, don’t people usually go all out to help as long as it’s within their abilities?”

Just as the person finished speaking, a fist that was the size of a clay pot flew over and struck his abdomen.

The coarse face of the person who spoke turned purple in an instant. Then, a huge hand covered his mouth from behind. He could not even scream and was dragged towards the spot behind the person.

The other Magi quickly smiled.

Li Changshou said calmly, “I have always been honest when I do things. If I can’t do it and make random promises, wouldn’t I be giving others hope for nothing? That would really be an unwise move. Instead of making empty promises, it’s better to listen and find out what the problem is before carefully considering if I can do it. Only then will I be responsible to everyone.”

The experts of the Magi were stunned when they heard that. Then, they came to a realization and looked at Li Changshou with admiration.

In the history of the Primordial World, the Magi had the lowest resistance against trickery.

Ox-head, who had lost his headgear, could not help but give Li Changshou a thumbs-up.

“The Sea God is indeed extraordinary. Actually, we don’t have any requests. We just want to express our gratitude as well when we saw the dragon race gifting you with beauties.”

After saying that, Ox-head’s eyes turned red and his lips trembled. “Sea God, our Netherworld is… suffering.” “Oh?”

Li Changshou frowned and hurriedly asked, “The Netherworld is also an office created by the Heavenly Dao. Logically speaking, it should enjoy the merit of the Heavenly Dao. Did something happen?” “So you know about this.” Ox-head’s expression changed. He smiled awkwardly. “I was just casually complaining. Actually, I can still get by by being a servant in the Netherworld.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

“Lord Sea God, here’s what happened.”

Beside Ox-head, a middle-aged man who looked rather wise took the initiative to speak.

“We want to ask you, Lord Sea God to give us an idea. When we entered the Netherworld, we swore to the Heavenly Dao that we would not interfere with the Great Magi-Demon War. We vowed to treat the true spirit of the Magi-Demon Reincarnation fairly. For that, the line of succession that followed the Lady of Earth into the Netherworld quickly fell out with the other Magi.” Ox-head continued, “After that, the Great Magi-Demon War ended. The Magi and the demons were all losers. The demons had the protection of the Saint who left them a way out. However, we the Magi…

Ah, us going to the biting cold places of the North Continent and struggling hard seems to be much better than what the demons faced but actually, it’s about the same.”

Li Changshou nodded slowly.

Then, he heard Ox-head scold, “Moreover, I don’t know who was the one who gave the Magi of the North Continent a rotten idea! He even wanted to use the Magihumans to replace the human race and support Chi You!

en

In the end, Emperor Xuanyuan won against Chi You and the Magi almost lost all their foundations. The situation of the Magi in the North Continent is probably even more difficult!”

Li Changshou cleared his throat and said, “I’m also a human.”

“Uh, Sea God, aren’t you from the ocean? This is a little…”

“Ah, it’s so awkward…”

“Hahaha.” Li Changshou laughed loudly. He already had a plan.

It was obvious that if he wanted to gain merit in the Netherworld, he had to help the North Continent’s Magi solve their survival problem first.

Back then, the Magi and the human race were allies. They fought against the demons together. Later on, it was indeed because of the battle between Chi You and Xuanyuan that the Magi and the human race fell out completely.

On that matter, he had to consider the interests of the human race. That was a fundamental principle that he could not forget.

He had to be steady. He could not agree casually

Li Changshou said, “In that case, I will go to the North Continent in a hundred years. Although I can’t help the Magi break the restrictions and bring them out of the North Continent, I can try to improve their living environment.”

“Really?”

“Of course.”

The few experts of the Magi race grinned and kept thanking him with words of gratitude.

Before Ox-head and the others left, they pretended to be stupid and did not accept the five hundred female fiendish spirits. However, Li Changshou stopped them.

The fiendish spirits could not be reincarnated. Most of them were filled with hatred.

Such fiendish spirits would wander in the Netherworld and gradually exhaust their spiritual energy. They would return to their True Spirit state and enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Li Changshou had done a good deed. In front of Ox-head and the others, he recited the Dao Sect’s Expiation Sutra and the Rebirth Incantation to resolve the resentment of the fiendish spirits.

When the fiendish spirits turned into ordinary souls and knelt in front of Li Changshou, Li Changshou nodded and accepted their bow. He had severed the karma.

It was indeed a simple matter. He had only expended some immortal power and did not get marred with any karma.

Due to the restrictions of the Heavenly Dao, the Netherworld servants could not use such an incantation.

After sending off the guests from the Netherworld, Li Changshou felt a little tired.

Before he could go to the closing ceremony of the Sea God Ceremony to take a look, the sound of a mosquito entered his ears. Daoist Wen Jing was like a hardworking bee who came to deliver a letter again…

This time, half of it was a congratulatory message.

According to Daoist Wen Jing, the disciples of the Western Sect had seen the Sea God obtain the Deity Position from the Heavenly Courts and help Ao Yi remove his negative karma through the cleansing of the Deity Position. They had already understood that the Heavenly Courts wanted to give the dragon race a share of the pie.

At that moment, the Western Sect had already changed their strategy. They decided to “split the dragons” with the Heavenly Courts.

Li Changshou felt a headache when he heard that…

The situation that he was most worried about still happened in the end.

The Western Sect was unwilling to be used as a tool. They adjusted their generic strategy in time and chose to slowly play mind games with the Heavenly Courts and Ren School later in a bid to split the dragon race between the two…

In that case, not only would the Western Sect not lose all their initial investment, but they could also avoid falling out with the Heavenly Courts that was supported by Ren School and the Dao Ancestor.

It could only be said that there were no mediocre members of the great sects.

However, it did not matter. Li Changshou’s years of effort were not wasted. The other party’s strategy was within his expectations.

It’s just that the pressure would be greater later and he would have to make some adjustments…

After saying that, Daoist Wen Jing added, “Congratulations, Lord. You have officially become the God of the Four Seas. From now on, you will be protected by the Heavenly Dao. I’m really envious.” Li Changshou casually changed the topic. “Wen Jing, do you still want to see the Great Daoist Master?”

Daoist Wen Jing’s voice trembled. “Actually… it doesn’t matter whether or not I see…”

“Forget it.”

“Don’t! Don’t forget it!”

Li Changshou smiled when he heard that. Daoist Wen Jing gritted her teeth in anger, but she only said delicately, “Lord, don’t tease me. I will rush over now…”

“Hey, don’t move your main body recklessly. Don’t attract the attention of others. This wisp of mystical ability will stay here later. The Great Daoist Master will look for me. You can see him then.”

Li Changshou continued earnestly, “When you leave the Western Sect in the future, I will officially recommend you.”

“Thank you, Lord!”

In the Cave Abode at the foot of the mountain, Daoist Wen Jing immediately sat up. Her breathing was a little rapid, and she had a longing expression. However, she patiently waited.

Speaking of which, why did the Great Daoist Master go out for half a day?

Li Changshou was a little puzzled. However, the Great Daoist Master was elusive. He would not get any results even if he guessed blindly.

Li Changshou looked at the Blood Mosquito on his shoulder and chuckled in his heart. That was a date that the Saint had personally chosen.

However, there definitely would not be a relationship between the Great Daoist Master and Daoist Wen Jing. The two of them were incompatible with each other.

Deep in the East Ocean, in a pavilion on the Three-Immortal Island, two young girls hid in the distance sneakily and listened attentively. Qiong Xiao was holding a conch-shaped Dharma treasure.

In the pavilion, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du squinted and smiled. He kept talking about the past of the three sects.

Yun Xiao listened quietly by the side. She did not know why the Eldest Senior Brother of the Dao Sect had suddenly visited.

Yun Xiao said softly, “Senior Brother Xuan Du, you are busy. If you have anything to say, just say it.”

“Well, haha, ahem.” Great Daoist Master Xuan Du raised his hand and coughed twice. “Junior Sister Yun Xiao, you came from the ancient times. I wonder if you have any thoughts of having a Dao companion?”

Yun Xiao could not help but chuckle when she heard that. She said, “Aren’t my two little sisters who are eavesdropping on us at the side now, my Dao companions?”

“The Dao companion I’m talking about is not a Dao companion in this sense but another type of Dao companion.” Great Daoist Master Xuan Du continued seriously, “I cultivate the natural Dao, so I can be considered to be naturally loyal. Since you’re a woman, Junior Sister Yun Xiao, you also have the opportunity to have a Dao companion.”

However, Yun Xiao’s expression did not change. She was still as gentle as before, though she also seemed aloof and distant.

She said softly, “I have never had a Dao companion before. I have never had such thoughts either. Could it be that you are here today to find out about this matter, Senior Brother?”

The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “I can’t say that I’m trying to find out something. I’m just asking around. It’s good that you don’t have one. It’s good that you don’t.

Also, Junior Sister, don’t misunderstand. I’m not asking about this for myself.”

As he spoke, the Great Daoist Master took out a portrait from his sleeve. “Junior Sister, please take a look. Do you recognize the person in the painting?”

“The person in the painting?”

Yun Xiao was a little confused. She grabbed the portrait and slowly opened it. She saw a handsome man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was smiling.

Furthermore, it was not a painting, but a mystical ability that had been imprinted from the images in the bottom of one’s heart.

“Although I don’t recognize him, he looks familiar. I think I’ve seen him somewhere before.”

“You guys have indeed met recently.”

“This is…”

Yun Xiao’s eyes lit up, but she could not help but cover her mouth and laugh softly. There was a lively and vivid expression on her cold face.

“It’s him? He pretends to be so old every day. It’s really as he said. He’s afraid that others will think that he’s unreliable if his original appearance is exposed. The difference is too

great.”

Eh?

Great Daoist Master Xuan Du got an idea. He acutely sensed the slight changes in Yun Xiao’s calm mental state.

Could it be that there is really a chance?
