My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 252 Only Getting Ordinary Official Treatment

In the backyard of the Sea God Temple in Anshui City, Ao Yi, who was dressed in a light green crystal armor and wearing a light green crystal helmet, was energized. He stood in front of the old immortal incarnation of his Brother Sect Master and asked excitedly,

“Brother Sect Master, what should we prepare for our visit to the Heavenly Courts?”

“Change your hat first.”

“Uh.” Ao Yi blinked and took off the winged crown on his head. He asked guiltily, “Brother, what’s wrong? Sisi chose this for me.”

Li Changshou shook his head and said, “The Heavenly Generals and Heavenly Soldiers like to dress in silver and gold. You have to join the group.”

Ao Yi’s eyes lit up. He hurriedly said that he had not thought it through. He ran to the room at the side and changed into a shiny silver chain mail.

Li Changshou was worried sick about the harmony in his younger brother’s backyard.

Li Changshou looked at his paper effigy’s image...

His white hair was tied up and secured with a Daoist band, and his wide robe made him look rather thin.

He held the horsetail whisk in his hand and stepped on the old fabric shoes.

Yes, that’s enough. After putting on the court attire, it’d really be... too dull on the outside.

Ao Yi whispered, “Brother Sect Master, Mother asked me to bring some meeting gifts for the immortals and gods of the Heavenly Courts. How should I give it to them?”

“Meeting gifts? What are they?”

Ao Yi hurriedly said, “They are all useless items that have nothing to do with cultivation. For example, the pearls of the South Ocean, the Night Illumination of the North Ocean, the corals of the East Ocean, and the mysterious crystals of the West Ocean... Mother said that this is not considered bribing the immortals since they are not treasures used for cultivation.

However, there are many immortals in the Heavenly Courts. I don’t know who is more important...” “That’s fine.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “How about this? Look at my hand gesture. If I give you a thumbs-up, you can take out a gift. If I raise two of my fingers, you can take out a gift or two.”

“Alright!” Ao Yi immediately agreed.

The two of them did not delay any further. Li Changshou flicked his horsetail whisk and made a white cloud.

Ao Yi asked, “Brother, why don’t I use my dragon body to carry you?”

“Don’t be like that.” The disciple of Ren School, who did not want to become a Dragon Rider, continued seriously, “The most important thing to do in the Heavenly Courts is to keep a low profile. We are aiming for the merit of the Heavenly Courts, not to make a name for ourselves in the Heavenly Courts.” Ao Yi looked ashamed and followed obediently beside his Brother Sect Master.

The white cloud floated up, and the two of them slowly rose into the sky.

The journey was calm and peaceful. When they flew to about 50 kilometers in the sky, a violent gust of wind blew from all directions and slashed towards the dragon and paper effigy like a blade.

Ao Yi immediately released his immortal power to form a barrier. The astral winds naturally could not touch a Heaven Immortal like him.

They rose by another tens of kilometers, and a layer of Heavenly Flames that could be seen with the naked eye appeared above them. They casually charged over. The astral winds and Heavenly Flames were mainly used to prevent living beings below immortals from flying to the sky of the Primordial World.

After passing through the area of the Heavenly Flames, the sky above his head instantly became higher. The originally blue sky became much lighter. White clouds floated above him, and cloud paths were hidden among the white clouds.

It was the first time that Li Changshou had ascended to Heaven. He did not have much experience. He could only rely on his intuition to bring Ao Yi to the cloud path and fly towards the center of the South Continent.

After flying for a while, a magnificent White Jade Heavenly Gate appeared in their vision.

Look at this Heaven Gate.

It looks like it’s entirely made of white jade, with dragons and phoenixes guarding it.

The evil-vanquishing sword hung in the air and wrote a letter to the crafty villains of South Heaven Town.

Li Changshou felt a little excited for some reason...

Now, he had arrived at this place earlier and more comfortably than he had planned when he drew up a plan for his immortal life when he was eighteen years old. He had jumped out of the huge pit known as the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. He would no longer be the most miserable cannon fodder!

The most tragic ones were those who were killed and could not get on the God roll.

Li Changshou carried his horsetail whisk and led Ao Yi forward on a cloud. When the Heavenly General guarding the gate saw them, he looked puzzled. Then, he thought of something and carefully identified them. He immediately sent voice transmissions everywhere.

“Everyone, perk up! The Sea God has arrived in the Heavenly Courts!”

Immediately, the Heavenly Soldiers guarding the Heaven Gate perked up. The Heavenly General hurriedly crushed the jade token left behind by General Dongmu and welcomed them with the Heavenly Generals.

“May I ask if you are the Great God of the Four Seas?”

Li Changshou smiled and nodded. He was very... kind.

The Heavenly Generals were delighted. One of them said, “Can you reveal your divine power? We have to verify it.”

Li Changshou flicked his horsetail whisk, and a golden ray of light appeared around him. He looked more holy.

The Heavenly Generals immediately cupped their fists and bowed. Li Changshou bowed with a Dao salute and smiled. “Can you verify my identity now?”

“Of course, please, Sea God!” “Alright,” Li Changshou said pretentiously as he led Ao Yi through the South-Heaven Gate.

Li Changshou secretly shook his head slightly.

It was too unstable to let him go after confirming his divine power. They did not interrogate him in detail or search his body. He did not even know if he was an incarnation or a puppet... I still have to mention this matter to the Jade Emperor.

Otherwise, he would not feel safe about bringing his junior sister and master to the Heavenly Courts in the future. “Brother,” Ao Yi asked via voice transmission. “Don’t I need to give these Heavenly Generals any gifts?”

“We can think about it when we leave. There’s no hurry.”

As soon as Li Changshou finished speaking, a green ray of light flashed across the cloud path in front of him, revealing an honest-looking old man.

Li Changshou’s eyes lit up. He secretly extended... a palm towards Ao Yi.

Ao Yi blinked. Five fingers? Five gifts?

At that moment, Ao Yi hurriedly fumbled around in his storage Dharma treasure. Li Changshou rode a cloud forward and shouted, “Thank you, General Dongmu, for leading the

way!”

“Hahaha!” General Dongmu was in a good mood. “Sea God, I’ve finally waited for you to come up! Quick, quick, follow me to pay respects to His Majesty!

Li Changshou nodded and agreed. Logically speaking, he should go to the Hall of Enlightenment first. However, since General Dongmu did not follow the procedures, he would just listen.

“General Dongmu, this is my sea army’s commander, Ao Yi.”

“Ao Yi, quickly greet him. He is the most trusted person of His Majesty, General Dongmu of the Heavenly Courts!”

Ao Yi hurriedly walked forward and bowed respectfully. He shouted ‘General Dongmu’... and pulled out five shiny golden treasure chests from his arms.

Each treasure chest was five feet long, three feet tall and wide. They were neatly arranged in front of General Dongmu and the lids of the chests opened on their own...

The treasure light inside flickered and dazzled everyone. It contained Xiong Lingli’s fist-sized Night Illumination Pearl, a jade plate carved from peerless jade, and a dragon-eye-sized, flawless pearl...

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Brother, are you here to show off in the Heavenly Courts?

Is this what you call a good-for-nothing item? Can you get a hundred boxes of good-for-nothing items and give them to me at the Sea God Temple?

Ao Yi said firmly, “This is a small token of my gratitude. Please accept it, General Dongmu!”

“Well....”

General Dongmu blinked and looked around guiltily. He then looked at Li Changshou in confusion, wondering if that was an important part of the dragon race.

Li Changshou felt helpless.

He knew that the dragon race was passionate, but he did not expect...

“General Dongmu, this is also a token of Ao Yi’s appreciation. These are all ornaments. Please accept them, General Dongmu.”

“Ah, this is against the rules. If anyone sees this, it will seriously be troublesome!”

“Wait a moment, General Dongmu.” Li Changshou sent a voice transmission to Ao Yi. Ao Yi immediately lowered his head and agreed. He turned around and turned into a ray of light that landed at the South-Heaven Gate.

Clang! Clang! Another few large treasure chests were sent out and smashed in front of the Heavenly Generals.

“This is a token of my appreciation. Please take care of me in the future!”

Then, Ao Yi turned around and flew back. He did not give the Heavenly Generals any chance to reject him.

At that moment, General Dongmu understood that that was probably the segment where the Dragon Palace took the initiative to send gifts to pave the way for their entry to the Heavenly Courts. His admiration for the Sea God in front of him increased.

“Then, I’ll accept it?” General Dongmu asked carefully.

Li Changshou smiled and blinked. General Dongmu laughed wryly and said that he would not do it again...

Next, on the way to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, Ao Yi would give a box of useless ornaments to any Heavenly General he met.

In the spacious Heavenly Palace, there were sentences like “Hey, how can I accept this?”,”You’re too polite”, “It’s just a greeting gift”, “Don’t do it again, don’t do it again”...

At that moment, their journey on the cloud path from the South-Heaven Gate to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall was filled with joy.

As he approached the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, Li Changshou’s eyes lit up again. He saw the Jade Emperor’s incarnation and a few Heavenly Generals “passing by” together. Li Changshou did not even need to give Ao Yi a hinting glance. The latter had already run over and retrieved a few chests from his storage Dharma treasure.

“Please accept my gift. Please take care of me in the future!”

The Jade Emperor’s incarnation blinked at Li Changshou in confusion. Li Changshou smiled and nodded.

Following that, the Jade Emperor’s incarnation, who was there to see who dared to accept the gifts openly, immediately understood something There should be a deeper meaning behind Changgeng’s actions. When the dragon race gives out gifts, they feel that they are closer to the Heavenly Courts... However, I did not consider that previously.

Moreover, the gifts are all ornaments for decoration. The dragon race is thoughtful.

Therefore, the Jade Emperor’s incarnation chuckled and said, “I’ll forget about it this time. There are rules in the world. I won’t do it again.”

“Ah!” Ao Yi smiled and nodded. He cupped his fists at the unknown passerby and smiled as he ran behind Li Changshou.

The Jade Emperor’s incarnation nodded secretly. What a good little dragon. After another two days, he flew past the nine-layered jade door. The Lingxiao Treasure Hall, which was floating under a starry sky, was in sight. There were a hundred immortals gathered inside, and the Heavenly Soldiers in front of the hall were like statues. When he stepped onto the 999-tier white jade stairs in front of the hall, Ao Yi felt inexplicably nervous.

Li Changshou sent a voice transmission to encourage him. Then, he lifted the hem of his robe with his left hand and picked up the white horsetail whisk with his right hand.

It was just like... He was originally a carefree guest in the mountain. He worshiped the Emperor in the Lingxiao Hall.

He was ranked on the Heavenly Cycle and claimed to be on the righteous path. He was looking to avoid becoming the God-conferment all his life!

An hour later, on the cloud path to the Hall of Enlightenment, Li Changshou sent a voice transmission to Ao Yi.

“How do you feel?”

“Your Majesty, the Heavenly Emperor is actually so... young and powerful,” replied Ao Yi via voice transmission. “Furthermore, the fact that the Heavenly Emperor is so concerned about the dragon race makes me feel extremely emotional.”

Li Changshou said warmly, “You can’t just look at the surface. Ao Yi, you have to learn to analyze the internal factors of one matter. The Heavenly Emperor is so concerned about the dragon race because he had taken a liking to the dragon race’s influence in the Primordial World. If the dragon race can enter the Heavenly Courts, the Heavenly Courts, which has just been established, would definitely be famous. That is the motive of the Heavenly Courts to help the dragon race.” Ao Yi was deep in thought when he heard that. He replied via voice transmission, “I know what you are talking about, Brother. However, this is more than ten thousand times better than those who would secretly harm others without obtaining the dragon race’s loyalty.” Li Changshou waved his horsetail whisk and did not say anything.

This time, Li Changshou did not gain much from visiting the Jade Emperor in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. He only obtained a Tiger Talisman that could mobilize 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers at any time and a token that allowed him to walk around the Heaven Palace freely. He was also allowed to enter the Lingxiao Hall without reporting...

He was treated like an ordinary minister.

When he went to the Hall of Enlightenment, the few Immortal Officials guarding the Hall of Enlightenment were also very respectful. They quickly settled all the matters.

He had entered the immortal register, received a token, and chosen a residence. He had also received three thousand Heavenly Soldiers as the first batch of the Sea God’s army.

Li Changshou took the opportunity to understand the current situation of the Heavenly Courts. He realized that the Heavenly Courts were not only lacking in legitimate gods, but they also had huge loopholes in the defenses they should have.

The entire Heavenly Courts should be stationed with more than three million Heavenly Soldiers. Now, there were only a million of them.

Every layer of the Nine Heavens was extremely vast. The lower three layers were where the “Heavenly Humans” lived. They corresponded to the Heavenly Dao in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

The lifespans of the Heaven Immortals had started from a thousand years ago. They had better potential for cultivation and were an important source of soldiers for the Heavenly Soldiers.

From the Heavenly Courts to the Netherworld, Li Changshou could see a clear path. That might be the Three Realms’ Divine Power system that the Dao Ancestor, Hong Jun had created after combining the Heavenly Dao.

However, the fertility rate of the Heaven Immortals could not be increased. The Heavenly Courts were also limited by that. The Heavenly Soldiers were not enough.

If the Heavenly Courts wanted to rise, they had to do many things together.

However, Li Changshou only thought about it and did not take the initiative to say it.

Unless the Saint gave him a mission or he needed to use it to earn merit and increase his karma for no reason, Li Changshou would definitely... not... give...

Huh?

Li Changshou suddenly realized something. There was a slight disturbance in the Great Pure Dao. A word formed in Li Changshou’s heart.

“Come.”

“This is!”

Li Changshou was shocked. Ao Yi was puzzled.

Li Changshou did not dare to delay. He asked where the Tushita Palace was and flew towards it with Ao Yi.

Ao Yi hurriedly asked, “Isn’t that the Dao venue transformed by the Saint?”

“Yes,” Li Changshou said. “Don’t ask, don’t look, and don’t listen.” “Yes.” Ao Yi tensed up as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

However, before they could fly to Tushita Palace, they saw a lively... bean sprout field not far away on the cloud path.

It was indeed a bean sprout field. It was the bean sprout region that Li Changshou had created after offering the Heavenly Courts the initial version of the Soldier-forming Beans mystical ability and the premium mixed immortal beans.

At that moment, the Heavenly Courts were very empty. The immortal bean seedlings had added some green to the Heavenly Courts.

Those were not the main points.

The main point was that the young Heavenly General, who was carrying a hoe and sweating profusely in the bean sprout field, was also looking over...

Ao Yi’s delicate face turned red when he saw that. He subconsciously grabbed his sword and unsheathed it with a clang!
