My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 447 - Just the Moon Palace



Chapter 447 Just the Moon Palace

There was a battle at the South of the North Continent.

The battle between the Heavenly Courts and the demons lasted for half a day. Moreover, it was almost one-sided. The demons resisted, fled, and were chased for half a day.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Courts did not plan to exterminate them. After that, they would not pursue the crimes of the demons who did not participate in the chaos in the North Continent and control the casualties of the living beings. Demons could not be killed.

What the Heavenly Courts wanted to do, or rather, what Li Changshou wanted to do with the Heavenly Courts, was to redefine demons.

How could it be so easy to balance the Heavenly Dao?

Not only did Li Changshou want to promote his own system of balance of living beings, he also wanted to promote the “Human Spirit Immortal, Demon Spirit”.

He had to start from the smallest details and gradually accumulate them to form a binding power to the Heavenly Dao. The final goal was to use it to achieve the Dao!

His own Dao was the greatest guarantee in the future.

The battle in the miasma cloud in the North Continent twelve years ago made Li Changshou understand a lot.

‘Strength’ was the final deciding factor, not ‘position’. Without that ability, one would not be able to catch the opportunity easily even if it was thrown at their face. It might even end up ruining his life.

A certain ancient matchmaker thought, ‘I feel like I’m being offended by a certain junior.’

Now, when he was scheming, Li Changshou would ask himself if that would be beneficial to his Dao.

Killing the demons of the North Continent, severely injuring the destiny of the demons, and pulling the demons into the weak ranks of the world was very beneficial to his Dao.

Therefore, he did it without hesitation, even if he had to bear some negative karma. After this battle, he had purely relied on the merit from killing demons to balance out the slight negative karma that had been added by ordering the demons to kill.

Back to the battle between the Heavenly Courts and the demons.

In fact, when Li Changshou’s three axes landed, the demons had no chance of winning and no intention to fight anymore.

The Heavenly Soldiers’ overall plan was to surround them and leave a gap. Under Li Changshou’s command, they deliberately left an opening for a large number of demonic soldiers to escape towards the Aparagodānīya Continent...

Unfortunately, before the demon soldiers could escape to the spiritual mountain, they had already dispersed. More than half of them had died and were unable to complete the magnificent feat of dying the spiritual mountain in blood.

Li Changshou’s arrangements had a few levels of hidden schemes.

He wanted to force the Western Sect to make a choice.

At that moment, everyone knew that the Western Sect had previously helped the demons and bewitched them to go against the Heavenly Courts.

Now that the destiny of the demons was broken and most of the ancient demons had been killed, if a large number of demons fled to the vicinity of the spiritual mountain, would the Western Sect kill these demons or protect them?

If the Western Sect killed those demons, the Western Sect would lose their credibility.

Although the Saint, who was on the verge of leaving the group, did not care about that, the Great Tribulation had arrived. The Great God-Conferment Tribulation involved the Chan School, Jie School, and the Western Sect. If the Western Sect did that, it would be difficult for them to obtain allies in the future.

If the Western Sect protected these demons, the Western Sect would stand on the opposite side of the Heavenly Courts, the leader of the calamity.

Li Changshou could take the opportunity to develop the conflict between the Jade Emperor and the Western Sect to an irreconcilable state. That would allow the Western Sect to suffer more of the tribulation!

Unfortunately, those demons were really useless.

Li Changshou had even hinted to the Heavenly Generals not to chase too closely. The demons still could not last until the front of the spiritual mountain...

With a little regret, Li Changshou looked at the spiritual mountain from afar and disappeared.

It was indeed a pity that he could not make full use of this opportunity.

A hundred years later, the Purple Cloud Palace would sign the God roll. A natural gap would appear between Chan School and Jie School. The Western Sect would definitely jump left and right, causing Chan School and Jie School to fall into conflict.

At that time, the relationship between the Western Sect, Chan School, and Jie School would definitely be complicated. The ten thousand immortals of Jie School would definitely attract fear. The framework of the Dao Sect would only exist in name.

The battle between the great sects would reach its peak step by step.

That was the time to really spend effort to deal with the Western Sect.

What he had to do now was to accumulate his foundation and increase his trump cards against the Western Sect. He had to take out something from his Daoist robe at the crucial moment and turn the situation around.

He had to take part in the battle between the sects and the Saints. He had to fight steadily. If he took a wrong step, he would lose everything.

Saints were not disciples of good and bad Saints. They were the biggest winners in the ancient times!

While thinking about that, Li Changshou released the lightning in his palm. His main body took the opportunity to return with Bai Ze and retreat from the battle.

The ‘Water God’ paper effigy flew back into the sky calmly and reported to the Jade Emperor.

He had won the battle.

More than half of the 300-odd demon kings of the demon race had died. A small half of the demon soldiers had fled, and more than half of the demon soldiers had been defeated by the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals.

The dragon race had killed more experts of the demon race than the Magi. That was because the Magi, who were good at running and could not fly, could not catch up to the speed of the demons.

After all, in ancient times, a human with two legs could not outrun a gust of wind or something with a pair of wings. That was already an important factor that limited the number of Magi in the Magi race.

When the border of the North Continent was filled with corpses, Li Changshou ordered the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals to pack up the remains. Then, he used his True Flames to burn the mountains within a 500-kilometer radius and let the ashes pile up there.

In a few decades, the place would return to its original green color.

Green was the color of life and hope.

In front of the Nine Dragons Carriage, Li Changshou bowed and reported, “Your Majesty! The demons have been killed. The soldiers have returned victorious!”

The Jade Emperor leaned on his sword and said calmly, “Where is General Dongmu?”

General Dongmu, whose robe was stained with blood, rushed over. He cupped his hands and lowered his head. “I’m here!”

“In this battle, the soldiers will be rewarded according to their contributions,” the Jade Emperor said calmly. “Minister Changgeng, you will be rewarded with merit. If you make a huge contribution, your Deity Position will rise.”

Li Changshou immediately wanted to speak...

Why did he spend so much effort to destroy the demons of the North Continent?

It was all because he did not want to work in the Moon Palace!

However, just as Li Changshou opened his mouth, a golden light descended from the sky and enveloped Li Changshou. Wisps of merit entered the Merit Pool around Li Changshou’s essence soul. The merit that he had used to save his master’s soul had returned!

However, he was just a little short of the Golden Body of Merit...

That was not important. He only needed to go to the Netherworld later and show the Netherworld reform plan that he had already sorted out to the Lady of Earth.

As long as the Lady of Earth nodded, he would obtain that merit. His Golden Body of Merit would do! “It’s been hard on you, Minister Changgeng,” the Jade Emperor said. “After you return to the Heavenly Courts, go to the Moon Palace as soon as possible. Don’t let my words be like water.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

He felt that he had been schemed against. He replied weakly, “I understand.”

The Jade Emperor smiled and sighed. He stood up from the carriage and looked at the ashes dancing in the sky below. There was a glow in his eyes, and his figure seemed to be more majestic

He wanted to say something, just like how he had praised General Dongmu and Li Changshou when he was traveling the West Ocean. It was just like the poems and faraway places that Li Changshou had sat on the steps and chatted with when there was no one around. However, today, as he felt the sorrow of living beings and the grief of the world, the Jade Emperor only sighed softly. “Return to Heaven.”

“Did you see that? That’s our future enemy.”

Tens of thousands of kilometers away from the demons’ ashes, two figures were standing at the edge of a cliff.

Daoist Wen Jing leaned against a huge tree and said leisurely, her blood-colored cloak wrapped around her extremely enchanting figure. The silver-haired girl lowered her head slightly and hugged the sword in her arms tightly.

“Do you feel a little hopeless?”

The silver-haired girl nodded slightly. “That’s right.” Daoist Wen Jing’s voice seemed to have some Dharma powers that corroded the silver-haired girl’s Dao heart.

“Let’s go. The great calamity is coming. We have to go out less. Don’t cause trouble for the Saint.”

“Oh,” the silver-haired girl replied. Before she turned around and left, she took a few more glances at the ashes of the battle.

At the same time, on Black Pool Peak, a wave slowly spread out from the pool. Bai Ze appeared with Li Changshou on his back and slowly crawled to the side of the pool.

Bai Ze sighed. When Li Changshou floated to the side, he transformed into a human.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Mr. Bai, do you feel sorry for the defeat of the demons today?”

However, Bai Ze shook his head and said seriously, “I was thinking, Water God, wasn’t your Great Dao a little too ruthless during the battle? If everything is balanced, go and balance the speed of the great demon that can fly. Balance the physical body of the great demon. You are about to kill a great demon and even balance its injuries with the other demons. Why... Why are we still fighting? Isn’t it courting death for anyone to fight you in a group?” “Hahahaha!”

Li Changshou could not help but laugh. He waved his hand and explained, “Mr. Bai, you’re wrong. If he wanted to achieve equilibrium, he had to do it within the limits of his essence soul. Those were just mystical abilities extended from his Dao. Just as the Great Dao of Fire was close to perfection, he could directly unleash fire to injure others. It was just that the method he used to injure others was different. I’m only using the initial version of the Art of Equalization today. I have a sure-kill move that I have to use as a trump card.”

“Oh?”

Bai Ze blinked and muttered, “Is it... convenient to reveal our relationship?”

Zhao Gongming, who was sleeping soundly in the kitchen, could not help but turn his ears.

Li Changshou smiled slightly. Since he dared to say it, it meant that he had already developed more trump cards. He was just mentioning it to Bai Ze with a little intention.

Li Changshou said, “If I disregard everything and ignite the power of my essence soul and prepare the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill, I have the same...

lifespan as those with great mystical abilities.”

Bai Ze could not help but be stunned. He carefully tasted it and was shocked.

“In that case, wouldn’t you!?!”

“I will not increase my cultivation level for no reason. The Great Dao has its limits. However, I will pull the other party into his realm when he is the same age as me. Unfortunately, I have deduced that using this move is no different from dying together. The Nine Revolutions Golden Pill might not be able to save my essence soul. The implications are too great.”

Li Changshou sighed regretfully. He turned around and floated towards the Little Qiong Peak. He rode a cloud and flew at a height that was neither high nor low.

“Useless.”

“Pui!”

Bai Ze jumped and used his ultimate technique on Li Changshou’s back-spitting. Zhao Gongming stretched and walked out. He smiled and said, “It’s rare to see Brother Changgeng tell others about his mystical abilities.”

“Brother Gongming, I’m afraid you have misunderstood.” Bai Ze sighed and said, “The Water God is just reminding me. At the same time... Forget it, it’s not convenient for me to say anything. At the end of the day, the Water God has the highest trust in me. He can only trust me 70% to 80%. It’s difficult to trust him completely.”

Zhao Gongming was a little puzzled. “Why?”

“The Water God is just like that.” Bai Ze smiled and said, “Which Heavenly Water God would think that he could casually wipe me off so that he can gain 90% of his trust? Why else would I address him as the Water God instead of Changgeng? The mount and chef are just a little unsuitable.”

Zhao Gongming said, “I have to talk to Changgeng about this. How can he treat Mr. Bai like this!?!”

“Don’t go. Don’t go, Fellow Daoist.” Bai Ze hurriedly stopped Zhao Gongming and smiled in embarrassment. “To be honest, I’m the most at ease with the Water God.”

Master Zhao was confused. He kept his distance from Bai Ze.

“Mr. Bai, could it be that you...”

“Dao Brother, please think about your words.” Bai Ze’s eyes shone with immortal light. With a loud sound, he transformed into his main body. The horn on his head shone with a cold light.

Zhao Gongming chuckled and took two steps back.

“If I were to go to the Heavenly Courts, I would be a general. I really don’t understand the culture of you ministers. As long as Mr. Bai is happy... Ah, I didn’t say anything! Mr. Bai, don’t mess around! I’m a dignified outer sect disciple of Jie School. I have to be prideful! Hahahaha!”

On the Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou scanned the two mighty figures fighting with his immortal senses and shook his head with a smile.

Master Zhao was really salty. Ahem, he was really free.

The Jade Emperor had already personally urged him to go to the Moon Palace to take on the role. What should he think of to clear his relationship with the person from the Moon Palace?

This matter seemed small, but it was actually very subtle.

At that moment, his greatest connection with Jie School was that Fairy Yun Xiao and he were at the stage where their relationship was gradually warming up. Therefore, even if he went overboard, the immortals of Jie School would listen.

The Jade Emperor seemed to have the intention to weaken his connection with Jie School and make him stand in the position of the Heavenly Courts... When the leader pours his heart out to you, he wants to put you in an important position but is afraid that you would get poached.

That logic was the same as when a leader talked to you about your dreams, it is precisely because he does not want to increase your salary and wants you to work more.

Li Changshou would not be surprised if the Jade Emperor turned around and said that he wanted to let Hua Yun or Long Ji marry him, the Water God.

That was the position where the Jade Emperor was. He had to make a decision and be wary.

The matter of going to the Moon Palace seemed to be the Jade Emperor’s mischievous move, but there were more than ten deeper meanings.

Li Changshou pondered carefully and decided to be steady and make some preparations. He was currently very popular in the Heavenly Courts. Once he went to the Moon Palace, he might fall into a romantic situation, especially when he had to face so many beautiful fairies and dance in front of him.

With the Aged Beauties painting Dharma artifacts, Li Changshou was naturally not afraid of that. However, he was afraid that others would think of gossip...

His thoughts had to be clear.

After he went over, he had to go against Heng’e. At the very least, he had to spread rumors that Heng’e was sick of the Water God and that the Water God was reprimanding her for not disciplining those rumors.

It was actually easy to do that.

Li Changshou raised his hand and wrote a line of words on the blank piece of paper in front of him.

“100 Ways to Cook Rabbit Meat”

That was naturally just to scare the jade rabbit. He only needed to accidentally drop that thing. Then, when he trained Chang’e to reheat and cook some delicacies, he would relax.

Speaking of which, I’m just sending a paper effigy. What can I do?

At most, it would affect their Dao hearts.

I am the mighty Water God of the Heavenly Courts, the third figure of Ren School. How can I be afraid of those fairies?

I’m upright! “Senior Brother?”

A soft voice suddenly sounded beside his ear. Li Changshou’s hand trembled, and he almost cut the document in front of him.

He turned to look at the shimmering jade token on the wall beside him and casually summoned it over. He asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I made some soup. Do you want to try it?” Ling’e’s voice was filled with anticipation.

Li Changshou was speechless.

This is the emergency survival hotline! Can you be more serious!?! Jade talismans have lifespans!

“Send some over. My main body will go to the Pill Chamber later.”

Should I mention the matter of going to the Moon Palace to Ling’e? After all, there will definitely be rumors later on. It’s not bad to disperse Ling’e’s doubts in advance.

As Li Changshou thought about that, he took another piece of paper and wrote down a backup plan.

“Grand Pure One’s Pure Yang Child Divine Technique”
