My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 350 - Li Changshou Does Not Even Show His Face



Chapter 350 Li Changshou Does Not Even Show His Face

In the blink of an eye, Ksitigarbha calmed down again.

If he did not deal with it properly, he would die today!

The situation had changed too quickly. At that moment, Ksitigarbha could not determine if the Dao Sect was deliberately targeting him, a nobody, or if everything had really happened just in time…

Ksitigarbha could only take the gamble and trust that his teacher would protect him.

Previously, he had secretly taken in the Primordial Beasts for his own use. Today, he had the credit of planning the battle in the East Ocean and increasing the foundation of the sect…

The young Daoist was extremely depressed.

He had been cultivating for hundreds of thousands of years and had yet to arrive at the platform. Recently, he had just returned from his travels in the trichiliocosm, and was prepared to showcase his skills. He did not expect to encounter such a crisis after only attacking twice!

Could it be that he really… was at his peak when he appeared in the Primordial World?

He had thought that the plan for the battle in the East Ocean would be the beginning of his grand plan. He did not expect that it would be the ending of his own plan.

Ksitigarbha sighed softly and sat down slowly.

Truth Listener moved its huge head and asked via voice transmission, “Master, aren’t you going to do something more?”

Ksitigarbha sent a voice transmission. “Teacher must have been alerted about this matter. If I do too much, I might make a mistake. I might as well wait quietly and listen to Teacher’s arrangements.”

Truth Listener lay there and listened to the chaotic thoughts in the distance. Its thick tail swayed gently and it said, “Master, you’re probably hopeless this time. Remember to find me a good subordinate. There are a few female disciples from the Western Sect who are not bad.”

Ksitigarbha smiled helplessly and closed his eyes to rest, waiting for the storm to arrive…

The old Daoists on the spiritual mountain were the most worried.

They were just watching the fun from the side and would be fine if there was no battle. Why did they suddenly… He was in trouble and he did not know what to do!

The Cloud Mirror Art had already gathered more than a thousand immortals from the Chan School and Jie School. They followed behind the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du, Daoist Duobao, and Guang Chengzi, and headed towards the west!

Their expressions were unfriendly and their eyes were fierce.

They were not the immortals from the Middle Continent’s immortal sects. They had heard the Saint preach the Dao and were born in the Saint’s Dao venue. There were a large number of experts inside. Even if they did not have the Saint’s help, their power would be enough to flatten their spiritual mountain a hundred times!

“What should we do?” An old Daoist priest panicked.

“How can they taint our innocence for no reason?” Another old Daoist priest was indignant.

The hunchbacked old Daoist priest frowned and asked, “Who planned this?”

The old Daoists did not say anything and only shook their heads.

OV

At that moment, three golden rays flashed. Three more old Daoists appeared and landed in front of the old Daoists. The golden rays on their bodies gradually faded. They were also dressed in tattered clothes.

From the extent of the damage to their clothes, he could tell that they had already entered the Western Sect’s power center and were definitely high-ranking officials!

After all, the cloth on his body could only cover some crucial parts.

As expected, the group of old Daoists beside the treasure pool addressed the three Daoists as senior brothers.

The three of them were the disciples of the Saint who served the two Saints. At that moment, they appeared together. The situation was really urgent. The three of them spoke one after another. Their voices spread to the hearts of the old Daoists present. They began the traditional techniques of the Western Sect…

Pushing the blame.

Yada-yada.

The disciples of the spiritual mountain all knew what to do with the funeral arrangements. A few old Daoists rushed over and found a middle-aged Daoist priest whom they brought to the side of the treasure pool.

The middle-aged Daoist was a little confused. He thought that he was about to succeed and be valued by the sect. An old Daoist priest suddenly attacked and poked the back of the middle-aged Daoist priest’s head.

The middle-aged Daoist trembled and collapsed to the ground.

A ray of golden light flashed. That person suddenly opened his eyes and stood up. His gaze and expression were exactly the same as that of the old Daoist priest who had just attacked!

“Soul-Bewitching…”

Ksitigarbha muttered, “Thank you, Teacher.”

The Truth Listener divine beast lowered its head and sighed. It sent a voice transmission. “Master, if you realize that you can’t withstand it one day, you should return my freedom early and let me join another good family. Your sect really doesn’t treat living beings as living beings.” Ksitigarbha frowned and said, “Be careful with your words.”

Truth Listener slowly turned its head and continued listening to the chaotic noises and “opinions” that were approaching the spiritual mountain. It did not say anything else. At the same time… on the white cloud that was rushing to the spiritual mountain, the immortals of the three sects were not flying fast. Firstly, they wanted to maintain their formation. Secondly, they wanted to give the Western Sect more pressure.

At that moment, the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du stood in front of the immortals of the Dao Sect. He was naturally under pressure.

After all, he was used to being lazy. He had never brought so many junior brothers and sisters to cause trouble together.

At that moment, the decision-making power of the Dao Sect was focused on him, Duobao, and Guang Chengzi. Every step they took had to be carefully considered and analyzed.

Ever since the rise of the human race and the fall of the Demon Emperor, the Great Daoist Master had rarely put in so much effort. At that moment, his thought process was not smooth.

However, it’s fine!

There is also the human Dharma treasure that is used by the elite Junior Brother of Ren School, the Grand Minister of the Jade Emperor, the Grand Supreme Elder, and the Dao Sect… ahem, Junior Brother!

If I don’t use it now, when would I?

Therefore, the Great Daoist Master found the paper effigy hiding in Perfected Huang Long’s sleeve and asked, “Changgeng, what do you think the Western Sect will do?”.

Li Changshou deliberated over his words and replied, “If they are more brilliant, they would definitely not admit to this matter. It doesn’t matter if they are unreasonable or shameless. In the end, they will let this matter rest.”

When the Great Daoist Master heard that, he could not help but be puzzled. He asked, “This should be the most obvious idea. Why is it considered brilliant?”.

Li Changshou smiled and explained, “Great Daoist Master, you always give me such difficult questions. This method seems simple, but it is actually a sign that it was resisting the pressure of the Dao Sect. The outcome from deductions is not actually evidence. Once the matter is messed up, it would become misleading. After all, it is just a rumor. In this case, the Western Sect’s reputation will not be tarnished. The Western Sect will be united because of this matter.”

“Huh?”

Daoist Duobao suddenly turned to look at the Great Daoist Master and asked via voice transmission, “Is Senior Brother Xuan Du discussing with Changgeng? Why don’t we discuss it together?”

The Great Daoist Master nodded with a smile. Daoist Duobao had already taken out a numinous treasure that looked like a conch shell from his sleeve.

The numinous treasure pointed out a wisp of Dao runes to the Great Daoist Master, Perfected Huang Long, Guang Chengzi, Li Changshou’s paper effigy, and Zhao Gongming. The few of them immediately used their thoughts to communicate. They were very secretive.

Li Changshou’s eyes lit up. What a treasure!

The Great Daoist Master repeated the question and Li Changshou explained again.

Zhao Gongming asked, “Then, are there any less brilliant moves?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Brother, the plan is to find a responsible person and let him use the excuse of being bullied by Brother Zhao to wait for an opportunity to take revenge and create rumors. He will take responsibility for everything. That way, we will not be able to put pressure on the spiritual mountain. However, if that’s the case, it means that the Western Sect is still afraid of our Dao Sect. It will be disadvantageous to the people in their sect. It will also damage the Western Sect’s reputation.” “What’s the plan?” Perfected Huang Long frowned and asked, “Could it be that he’s going to seal the spiritual mountain and become a coward?”

“Senior Brother Huang Long is bleeding. This is indeed the best plan that they can choose,” Li Changshou said in a low voice. “If we attack the spiritual mountain forcefully, we will be offending the Saint. It will be easy for them to bite back.”

Great Daoist Master Xuan Du smiled and said, “Changgeng, do we have any brilliant plans to make them suffer and not dare to say anything during our trip to the spiritual mountain? We can still make a name for ourselves. The Western Sect will not be jealous.”

“Senior Brother…”

Li Changshou stopped himself from saying the words ‘I’m a human’!

The mission given by his superior in front of everyone, even if there were difficulties, he had to overcome them and face them head-on! While Li Changshou was thinking, Zhao Gongming’s eyes lit up.

He knew how to answer that question.

“Why don’t we all lie down…”

“Brother!”

Li Changshou hurriedly interrupted.

In front of so many immortals from the three sects, and the six Saints in the world who were paying attention to that place, he did not dare to casually cheat.

Li Changshou said, “I think that the success of our actions today depends on our control over speed. We went to the spiritual mountain this time with the excuse of settling the matters regarding the rumors. It seems like we are pursuing the matter, but we are actually showing our might. In recent years, the Western Sect has been stirring up trouble and has become more unrestrained in their actions. They have done many dirty things to the three sects. It’s a good opportunity to make them stop this time. Therefore, what we have to do later is to make the disciples of the Saints swallow their pride and make them not dare to attack rashly in the future.”

Guang Chengzi smiled and asked, “How can we make them do that?”

“Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother!”

Li Changshou pondered for a while and continued, “We still have to see how they react before we can come up with a plan. In general… If they are ruthless and thick-skinned, we have to be decisive and deter them. We can injure them. If they use scapegoats, we will insist that there must be more people plotting behind the scenes to make them hand over more masterminds. If they don’t come out, that would be simple. We just have to mock them and spread the news in the Primordial World. We don’t have to do much to achieve our goal of showing our might. They would seem like they had admitted to that matter and we can also make more accusations about them, ruin their benevolent reputation and affect their luck!” After saying that, the Great Daoist Master, Guang Chengzi, and Daoist Duobao nodded.

Guang Chengzi praised, “As expected of the immortal that Uncle-Master Jade Emperor trusts the most, he has already arranged everything for the Western Sect with just a few words.”

Duobao smiled and said, “Speaking of evil intentions, Changgeng, you’re the most evil one. Just because of a sin of spreading rumors, you’re insisting on forcing the Western Sect to lose their pride and expose the mastermind.”

“Hey, Eldest Senior Brother, you can’t say that!”

Zhao Gongming immediately stood up and said, “Changgeng is doing this for the sake of our Dao Sect’s prestige! Moreover, according to my understanding of Changgeng, these methods are considered restrained. He has not revealed the other methods that are more ruthless. Right, Changgeng?”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

A Saint!

There were Saints there!

He had more ruthless methods!

It was fine if he seized the opportunity to teach the Western Sect a lesson. If he really overturned the spiritual mountain, he, an ordinary minister of the Heavenly Courts, would definitely be in trouble!

At that moment, he was still a distance away from the spiritual mountain. The Great Daoist Master took the initiative to walk to Daoist Huang Long and let Li Changshou’s paper effigy enter his sleeve.

After all, Li Changshou was a disciple of Ren School. It was more convenient for him to come up with a plan beside the Great Daoist Master…

When the Goddess of Golden Spirit saw that, she asked Daoist Duobao via voice transmission, “Senior Brother, are you guys talking in secret?”

Daoist Duobao nodded with a smile and repeated what Li Changshou had said about dealing with the spiritual mountain. The Goddess of Golden Spirit, Jinling, pondered for a while. Then, she asked Daoist Duobao a few crucial questions, such as how they had to deal with the Saints if they appeared. Daoist Duobao answered according to Li Changshou’s plan.

The Goddess of Golden Spirit praised, “Junior Sister Yun Xiao’s Dao companion is so thorough when handling matters. Our fellow disciples of Jie School should interact more with him.”

“Of course.” Duobao squinted and smiled. He sent a voice transmission. “When I have the chance, I will lure him to the Green Touring Palace to meet our master. According to my speculation, he has only bowed to the Grand Supreme Elder and has yet to go to the Grand Pure One’s Temple.”

“Oh?” The Goddess of Golden Spirit nodded slightly and did not comment.

She suddenly thought of something and looked at the Great Daoist Master’s sleeve. Then, she shook her head and chuckled. Her eyes were filled with realization.

Daoist Duobao asked, “What’s wrong?”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit slowly answered, “It’s fine. I just suddenly recalled that the Heavenly Courts’ Water God has a temperament. He has protected the dragon race by going to the Heavenly Courts to serve them. Previously, the Western Sect had taken action and the Sea Eye of the East Ocean had been destroyed. The dragon race had suffered heavy casualties. Back then, Junior Brother

Water God was one step away from stopping them.”

“It has only been a few days. He turned around and held some evidence against the Western Sect. The other party only had a plan to spread rumors, but he used it to make a fuss and devise schemes. When the three sects were alarmed, the three Senior Brothers who were in charge of the sect affairs stood up and suppressed the spiritual mountains in the Western Sect…”

“What is unbelievable is that this move not only helped the Dao Sect to show their might, but it also helped the Three Sects to vent their anger on the dragon race. It can also stabilize his Dao heart and prevent him from feeling guilty…” “Anyone would praise him for doing his best for the Dao Sect… Junior Sister Yun Xiao really has good taste!”

Daoist Duobao turned to look at the Goddess of Golden Spirit and could not help but ask softly, “Are you thinking too much, Junior Sister? Changgeng, Junior Brother Huang Long, Junior Brother Gongming, Senior Brother Xuan Du, and I actually discussed this matter together…”

The Goddess of Golden Spirit shook her head and looked at the Great Daoist Master’s sleeve.

“That’s why he’s intelligent. If we don’t show our faces now, we still have to be grateful to him. The Western Sect’s jealousy and hatred will not fall on him. Naturally, I did not feel that this matter is inappropriate at all. I only feel that his scheming methods are indeed a little scary… Eldest Senior Brother, if you have any uncertainties about teaching matters in the future, you can look for him to discuss them. It’s a waste not to use Junior Sister Yun Xiao’s Dao companion.”

“Alright!”

Duobao smiled and agreed. He did not say anything else.

A mountain covered in golden light appeared on the horizon. They were still thousands of kilometers away from it when they sensed the peaceful and stable Dao runes of the Saint.

They had arrived at the spiritual mountain.

The Great Daoist Master sent voice transmissions everywhere.

“Be more fierce.”

The immortals from the Dao Sect smiled at first. Then, they put on straight faces. All of them were filled with murderous intent as they pressed down on the spiritual mountain.

They stopped the cloud 500 kilometers away.

Daoist Duobao was the first to take a step forward. A shiny sword appeared in his hand as he shouted at the spiritual mountain, “We, the disciples of the Dao Sect will not offend the Saint’s Dao venue for now. Disciples of the Western Sect who can take charge of matters, come out immediately!”

The first half of his sentence was not offensive but the second half was infuriating. It made the old Daoists on the spiritual mountain grit their teeth angrily without saying anything.

After a while, golden light shone on the spiritual mountain!

A door opened in the array formation. Hundreds of figures flew out and rose to the same height as the Dao Sect.

The three old Daoists walked at the front. They laughed loudly and led the cultivators of the spiritual mountain hundreds of kilometers forward.

However, the rule of laughing first thing upon meeting was based on the premise that neither party had any enmity. Today, no matter how the Qi Refinement cultivators of the Western Sect laughed, the immortals of the Dao Sect only had cold expressions. They stood in a line on the cloud with unfriendly expressions.

That made the laughing party feel awkward…

An old Daoist priest said, “This place is the spiritual mountain of the Western Sect. Fellow Daoists of the Dao Sect, why have you mobilized so many people?” “Guidance?”

Daoist Duobao stood up again…

There was no choice. He was the youngest senior brother of the three sects. Guang Chengzi had joined the sect early and had a high status as a Great Daoist Master.

Duobao widened his eyes and cursed, “Someone in the Western Sect created rumors and caused trouble. He destroyed my disciple’s reputation and almost caused chaos in my Dao Sect. He almost caused a war between the two sects! If the Western Sect does not give us an explanation today, I’m afraid this matter will not end!”

The first three old Daoists used the three verses of ‘feigning ignorance’ at the same time.

“Oh? Is that so?”

“Why don’t we know?”

“There must be a misunderstanding.”

“Misunderstanding?”

Zhao Gongming snorted and stroked his beard as he walked forward. The expressions of most of the old Daoists from the Western Sect changed. Their eyes were filled with anger.

Fortunately, Master Zhao’s legs were very strong today. He only scolded, “Many of my fellow disciples from the three sects have used the Heavenly Dao Treasure to deduce that the person who spread the rumors is protected by the twelfth-grade Golden Lotus in your Western Sect!”

An old Daoist priest replied, “Fellow Daoist Gongming, you’re wrong! The Western Sect has always been open and aboveboard. We will always remember the teachings of the two teachers. It was not easy for the Western Sect to prosper. Why would we plot against the Dao Sect and increase karma?” Zhao Gongming had already received a voice transmission. He immediately laughed and cursed, “The Western Sect has always been open and aboveboard? Aren’t you afraid of being ridiculed for saying that? Turn around and ask which of your fellow disciples do not have any secrets that they’re ashamed of revealing. Those who claim that they do not shall step forward and swear an oath to let the Heavenly Dao testify!”

The Western Sect disciples fell silent.

In the dark, Li Changshou smiled. The paper effigy who was taking notes in the rear hall of the Sea God Temple in Anshui City immediately added a line of words under Zhao Gongming’s character column.

“Master-grade precious artifact of the Western Sect!”

An old Daoist priest from spiritual mountain shouted, “There must be a misunderstanding. Fellow Daoists, please calm down and allow me to ask!”

After saying that, the old Daoist priest turned to look at the hundreds of disciples and said, “Who among you did that? If you have done it, stand up and admit it openly. Don’t disgrace the reputation of our Western Sect!”

The Qi Refinement cultivators of the spiritual mountains were speechless. Li Changshou was also secretly waiting… He had actually held back when he offered his advice previously. There was a situation that he did not mention directly.

Ksitigarbha took the initiative to admit his mistake and appease the Dao Sect’s anger by punishing himself.

In that case, Li Changshou would increase the threat level of Ksitigarbha!

However, after a moment of silence, a middle-aged Daoist flew out and sighed dejectedly. “I was the one who did this.”

Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief…

Fortunately, Ksitigarbha did not dare to step forward now. He should have some selfish motives. In the future, when he schemed against him, he would have many more opportunities to attack.

The few people in charge of the Dao Sect, the Great Daoist Master, Duobao, and Guang Chengzi smiled in their hearts.

How should they deal with this plan?

Zhao Gongming’s aura surged and his power covered the sky.

“How dare you plot against the Dao Sect? Tell me, did someone instruct you to sow discord between the Three Sects of the Dao Sect!?!”

At that moment, Daoist Duobao heard a voice transmission. He immediately took two steps forward and said coldly, “Junior Brother Gongming, hand over that oath template of yours and let him swear that he was the one who did it! If the Heavenly Dao finds out that he’s lying, it must be that he’s protecting the instigator behind him!”

The expressions of the cultivators from the spiritual mountain changed when they heard that.

They seemed to have seen this scene somewhere…
