My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 512 Sometimes, Li Changshou Is Poor

“She’s swimming in the green. She just got out of the bath.

The temperature of the water was just right. The bottom of the pool was filled with exquisite jade stones, and the feeling of stepping on them was very comfortable. There was a very considerate white fog floating around, which could help him recover some of the shame of taking an outdoor bath.

The spiritual energy of the world surged towards him. The Saint’s Dao runes were nearby. He could comprehend them at will, but whether he could comprehend the specific Great Dao depended on his own comprehension. This was one of the five Holy Lands in the world. There were many beautiful fairies. Of course, they would not provide any form of service. Moreover, they preferred fights of magical powers and mystical abilities.

It had to be mentioned that the owner of Green Touring Palace was very hospitable. He did not put on airs. He did not have the old aura of living beings that had been born since the creation of the world. Moreover, he looked like a young immortal who was the same age as him, who was just a few hundred years old. He had to be praised for that.

When he rubbed the smooth Saint’s back, his Dao heart trembled. He was afraid that he would rub the skin of the Green Touring Palace’s master until he was bald. The other party would wave his hand and slash him.

That was a sword that even a Saint might not be able to withstand.

Although he was a little worried, and he was clearly a guest, he had to do some work to serve the little immortal. However, the overall experience was quite good. It could be considered a bath experience that left a deep impression on him. Compared to the last time he used his junior sister’s wooden bucket to bathe, his senses were very different. Without thinking further, the Green Touring Palace owner continued chatting. He looked forward to the better Primordial World and the more realistic future. Changgeng, the Chief Experience Officer of the Heavenly Courts. In the corner of Green Touring Palace, in the treasure pool of the immortal mountain that was surrounded by clouds, the sound of water splashing continuously sounded. Li Changshou sat upright in the treasure pool and tried his best to help the big shot in front of him rub his back.

“Changgeng, I’ve carefully deduced the method that you mentioned just now. It’s indeed feasible. Moreover, I should be 50 to 60% confident.” Li Changshou praised, “Uncle-Master is still the best. If I were to do it, I would only be ten percent confident.”

“Hahaha.” The Grandmaster of Heaven chuckled and tapped his fingers on the water surface. “However, where can I find such a soul that can withstand the negative karma of the red lotus and be accepted by the red lotus?”

“This... is actually a coincidence. I happened to bring one.”

Li Changshou said seriously, “Previously, the Patriarch of the Nether River ate the soul of a human in front of me. In order to take revenge on him, I encouraged Princess Asura to resist the Patriarch of the Nether River. In order to be safe, I used a human soul to balance the remnant soul of the Patriarch of the Nether River. Unexpectedly, the soul began to fuse with the power of the red lotus. At that time, I had that thought. What I wanted to destroy was the remnant soul of Patriarch Nether River. Since I want to protect the red lotus, why don’t I replace it? Let this soul snatch the ownership of the red lotus from Patriarch Nether River’s remnant soul? As long as I squeezed out the connection between Patriarch Nether River and the red lotus and turned him into a scab of the red lotus, I can cut out Patriarch Nether River without causing the red lotus to collapse. At that time, as long as I treat this soul as the spirit of the red lotus and spend some effort to nurture the red lotus, perhaps it can really be a treasure to suppress the destiny of the sect.” The Grandmaster of Heaven praised, “It’s really wonderful!”

“Uncle-Master, you’re too kind. This is also a reminder for me.”

Li Changshou was not being humble. He had indeed obtained enlightenment from the fact that he did not know when it would happen or how it would happen. The original intention of transforming the beard into a Buddha was to compete for luck with the Western Sect. The Western Sect was destined to prosper, but the Western Sect might not be the one to prosper.

The schemes here were too complicated. It was another battle between Saints.

Li Changshou sat beside the Grand Pure One for eighteen days. His thoughts kept wandering, and he suddenly thought of that method.

He originally thought that it would not be difficult for the Saint to deal with the remnant soul of Patriarch Nether River and protect the red lotus.

However... ahem!

It was mainly because the Patriarch Nether River was too cunning. It could not be said that the Grandmaster of Heaven was weak in this aspect.

The Grandmaster of Heaven said, “Call this soul over to take a look?”

“Uncle-Master, wait a moment,” Li Changshou said warmly and went to his clothes.

In the Daoist robe that Ling’e had personally sewn, she took out a treasure pouch and took out a Dharma treasure to nourish the soul. She held the sealed soul in her palm and sent it to the Grandmaster of Heaven.

The Grandmaster of Heaven’s eyes lit up. He smiled and said, “You’re really prepared. Why are you still keeping me in suspense? Just take it out.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless. He could not say that he did not expect that the Saint could not handle it.

At that moment, he had to use the art of language.

“I snatched the red lotus for the Dao Sect. I gave the red lotus because of my master’s orders,” Li Changshou said seriously. “I prepared these because of my personal feelings. Aunt-Master, please don’t blame me.”

“Hahahaha! What an intimate relationship!”

The Grandmaster of Heaven laughed heartily. Then, he sighed and said, “Not only did you help me restrain my good disciple Yun Xiao, but you also taught the silly Gongming to be quick-witted and flexible. You even spent so much effort to make arrangements today. I’ll help you knock out my good disciple Yun Xiao and bring her here?”

“Well...” Li Changshou’s Adam’s apple trembled. He said softly, “Uncle-Master, we will let nature take its course.” “Hahahaha! You’re blushing! I was just teasing you.

I...”

The Grandmaster of Heaven’s smile froze. He sighed gloomily. “How would I dare... Unlock the restrictions on this soul, let’s communicate with him in depth. After all, we need his help.”

“Is it here?”

Li Changshou looked at the clouds around them. “We’re all men, what’s there to be afraid of?”

“Yes, I understand.”

Hence, Li Changshou weakly woke up the soul.

The scholar woke up from his daze. First, he turned into a human-like shadow. Then, the shadow gradually condensed.

The Grandmaster of Heaven completely restrained his Saint pressure and did not reveal his aura. He was afraid that he would shatter this hard-won helper with a single glance. Compared to the last time he talked to Li Changshou, the scholar did not change much. His eyes were a little dark, and wisps of pink aura floated around him. His face was even paler.

The scholar blinked and gradually regained his senses. He looked at the two young Daoists who were “sincere” and could not help but tilt his head.

“Huh?”

What’s going on? When the scholar was still alive, he had heard that there were a few wealthy merchants in the city who had male relatives. When he was at his wits’ end, he had almost agreed to the manager of the brothel because of his suaveness.

This, this...

He heard the two immortals talking in front of him. The male immortal on the left frowned and said, “Disciple-Nephew Changgeng, can this weak soul do

it?

The male immortal on the right, who was clearly very unfamiliar but strangely familiar, smiled and said, “If Uncle-Master wants him to do it, he naturally can.” The scholar trembled and said in a trembling voice, “W-What do you want to do? I don’t have a body. I’m just a ghost.”

The Grandmaster of Heaven revealed a gentle smile. “Don’t be afraid. I have something important to discuss with you.”

A hint of despair appeared in the scholar’s eyes. “Immortal, you’re not even going to let go of souls?”

“Changgeng, this...” “Aunt-Master, don’t be anxious. Let me discuss with him.”

Li Changshou bowed to the Grandmaster of Heaven and pulled the scholar’s soul to the side of the pool. “Why? Don’t you recognize me?” The scholar nodded obediently. When Li Changshou transformed into the Water God’s appearance and released a wisp of his aura, the scholar immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

“Old Immortal, it’s you. Thank you for saving me from the evil ghost!”

The evil ghost should be referring to Patriarch Nether River.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “You suffered that danger because I brought you out of the Eighteen Levels of Hell. Otherwise, you would have enjoyed the torture in the Eighteen Levels of Hell and not have to go out. There’s no need to thank me for this.”

The scholar suddenly thought of something. He cried and begged softly, “Can you not send me back to hell? I’ve been a human my entire life... Not bad. I really haven’t done anything evil. The judge has already said that many negative karma has been brought over!” “You don’t want to go back and suffer?” Li Changshou pondered for a while. “That’s not easy to deal with. After all, that doesn’t conform to the heavenly rules. Although I’m an immortal, I can’t make an exception for you. Unless...” “Tell me, tell me.” The scholar hurriedly said, “I’ll do anything.” “There are three choices in front of you now,” Li Changshou said. “I know that it’s very difficult for you to make choices, but I have to explain these to you clearly. The first choice is that I will send you back to the Eighteen Levels of Hell and plead with the Netherworld Judge to reduce your sentence. In that case, once you eliminate the negative karma in the Eighteen Levels of Hell, you will still have a chance to reincarnate. However, you might have to be a bug, bird, and fish for a few lifetimes. The second choice is to help me do one thing with a negative attitude. That is to beat up the evil spirit that wants to eat you. Of course, I will definitely use some methods to ensure that you win. You just have to do as I say. If this matter succeeds, you will be considered half an immortal in the future. You might even be able to live forever. However, comparatively speaking, you cannot walk around casually. The third choice is for you to do your best to help me this time. I will also do my best to help you. With this expert around, I will definitely protect you from death. Even if this matter does not succeed, I will protect you and make you a little god. How about that?”

The scholar’s voice trembled. This time, he was quite happy. “Didn’t you tell me to choose the third one?” Li Changshou smiled. “This is an opportunity, young man.”

“Can I ask which immortal you are?”

“Me? I’m in charge of all the Water Gods in the Heavenly Courts.” Li Changshou said warmly, “You’ve heard that there are Dragon Kings in the rivers, lakes, and seas, right?” The scholar nodded obediently. “If they want to be River Gods and Lake Gods, they need my approval.” The scholar trembled and asked, “The immortals are not lying, right?” Li Changshou’s eyes were filled with seriousness. He said seriously, “I’m not lying to you.” “Then.” The scholar gritted his teeth, and his eyes slowly lit up. “I’ll do my best! Whatever you say!”

Li Changshou immediately smiled faintly and looked at the Grandmaster of Heaven. The latter was standing by the pool and looking up at the sky with his hands behind his back. Uh, does the Grandmaster of Heaven not like my method of guiding and luring? The Grandmaster of Heaven sighed softly. “Changgeng.”

“I’m here.”

“Open the Woodflower Academy in my Green Touring Palace. I’ll give you the position of Deputy Sect Master and teach my disciples well.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Indeed, the Saint had watched the live broadcast of the love story between the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor!

Although the Deputy Sect Master sounded very tempting, Li Changshou did not dare to agree. Not to mention that Jie School was currently lucky enough to reach the Western Hills, even the Grand Pure One would probably not agree to it. He was a disciple of Ren School. How can he be the Deputy Sect Master of Jie School? Naturally, the Grandmaster of Heaven was mostly joking. He did not directly issue the Saint’s decree. If the Grand Pure One perfectly explained the peak of the Dao, then Uncle-Master Shangqing was deducing how to use his true nature to control the Dao.

After they packed up their Daoist robes and left the treasure pool, the Grandmaster of Heaven even gestured for Li Changshou not to tell them the solution first and take the opportunity to test the disciples.

In the end, the Grandmaster of Heaven... did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Duobao brought the immortals of Jie School to discuss for a while and really came up with a few ideas.

For example, the plan that had the most supporters was to destroy Patriarch Nether River’s remnant soul memories and transform his remnant soul into a treasure spirit.

The disadvantage was that if Patriarch Nether River pretended to be stupid, that would be a huge hidden danger.

Another example was the method that Zhao Gongming suggested. They would form a group and lie down in front of the mountain gate of the spiritual mountain. They would throw the red lotus on the ground and say that the spiritual mountain had destroyed the treasures of Jie School. They would make the spiritual mountain pay the same price. If they were not convinced, they would kill the four immortals and cover the spiritual mountain!

The disadvantage was that it could easily trigger a battle between Saints and completely destroy the five continents of the Primordial World.

In short, the immortals of Jie School gathered their thoughts and ideas, but they could not break through the current predicament.

However, almost half of the disciples of Jie School did not think much of it. They felt that the red lotus was dispensable. After so many years, Jie School was still the number one sect in the Ten Thousand Immortals Dynasty.

When the Grandmaster of Heaven was refreshed, he brought the refreshed Li Changshou back to the main hall of the Green Touring Palace. Then, he sat down on the steps in front of the throne in the most familiar position.

“Tell me, do you have any good ideas?”

The few disciples of Jie School “suggested”. The Grandmaster of Heaven kept nodding and pointing out the inappropriate parts. In front of the stairs, Fairy Yun Xiao looked curiously at Li Changshou, who was beside her. She seemed to be asking what had happened.

Li Changshou smiled calmly and blinked his left eye. Everything was silent. At that moment, the Grandmaster of Heaven said, “Changgeng, tell me your plan. Let your Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters see what is the Dao of scheming. They are far inferior to you in terms of planning and arrangements.”

The disciples of the sect looked at Li Changshou indignantly.

Li Changshou revealed an awkward smile and bowed to various places. He hurriedly said that it was a method that his “teacher” had used to enlighten him. He explained his plan of “changing the prince” in detail and pulled the scholar out of the Dharma treasure.

Zhao Gongming frowned and said, “That works too?” “It’s worth a try.” Daoist Duobao praised. “Could it be that Junior Brother thought of this moment in the Asura Ancient City and used the Art of Equalization to create such a human soul as a catalyst? Ah, why didn’t we think so far when we faced the remnant soul of Patriarch Nether River?” The Goddess of Golden Spirit said unhappily, “What are you thinking about? Aren’t we all asleep?” Daoist Duobao chuckled. Joyful and relaxed laughter sounded around him.

He would just do it.

The Grandmaster of Heaven controlled the red lotus. Li Changshou brought the soul over and unsealed the remnant soul of Patriarch Nether River.

Due to the Grandmaster of Heaven’s strike, Patriarch Nether River’s remnant soul did not have much strength left. However, it was not something that the scholar could compare to.

Therefore, Li Changshou used the Great Dao of Equalization again. This time, he did not spend much effort to balance Patriarch Nether River’s remnant soul with the scholar’s soul.

Then, the Grandmaster of Heaven pointed his finger. With the power of a Saint, he almost completely suppressed Patriarch Nether River.

Wisps of golden merit surged out of Li Changshou’s palm and wrapped around Patriarch Nether River’s remnant soul. It made the red lotus reject the remnant soul of Patriarch Nether River.

To be safe, Li Changshou used a curse technique to make the scholar’s soul become irritable. Then, he threw the scholar into the red lotus. Almost instantly, the scholar and the red lotus merged and began to fight for control of the red lotus in the hands of Patriarch Nether River. It was as if he had been possessed. With the help of the Grandmaster of Heaven, Li Changshou, and the eldest disciples of Jie School, Patriarch Nether River retreated step by step and was finally forced to a corner.

Although he could still continue to squeeze the “living space” of Patriarch Nether River’s remnant soul, Li Changshou steadied himself and said, “Uncle-Master, it’s almost done.”

The Grandmaster of Heaven raised his hand and slashed the red lotus with the remnant soul of Patriarch Nether River in a corner of the red lotus petal!

Before Patriarch Nether River’s remnant soul could curse, Daoist Duobao attacked in time. He raised a Soul-Burying Cauldron and refined Patriarch Nether River’s remnant soul. Then, he took out the origin power of the red lotus that he had just slashed out and sent it back into the red lotus...

The disciples of the sect stared at the red lotus nervously. Li Changshou chanted the Heart-Calming Incantation to help the scholar’s soul calm down. A twelfth-grade negative karma red lotus... He was safe and sound! “It’s done?” Zhao Gongming shouted in surprise. The scholar turned into a three-inch-tall little person and revealed his head at the edge of the red lotus. He trembled with fear. Li Changshou cupped his hands and smiled. “Congratulations, Fellow Daoist.” A fairy said happily, “Our Jie School also has a treasure that can suppress luck!”

Qiong Xiao also said, “Master, quickly try what effect this red lotus has!”

“Hahahahaha!”

The Grandmaster of Heaven laughed happily and held the red lotus in his palm. “Changgeng has contributed greatly this time. I must reward him well! Watch carefully. This red lotus has the effect of absorbing negative karma. It can use it to suppress the luck of the sect. Rise!”

The Grandmaster of Heaven shouted softly. The red lotus slowly rose while spinning. The scholar’s soul was pulled back to the center of the red lotus and merged with it. In the next moment, black gas surged towards the red lotus from all directions. It was both the negative karma of the immortals of Jie School and the “calamity” that Jie School had accumulated over the long years.

One wave, two waves...

Suddenly, he heard rumbling thunder. A large black cloud suddenly appeared around Green Touring Palace and immediately pressed down on the red lotus.

Zhao Gongming cried out, “Oh no, this red lotus can’t suppress our luck!” “Why are there so many negative karma in Jie School!?!” Li Changshou’s expression changed drastically. He frowned and sensed carefully. The Grandmaster of Heaven’s expression was a little solemn. Sword light flashed in his eyes, but he was extremely decisive. He flew towards the trembling red lotus.

However, it was too late!

Boom!

Buzz...

A light red wave erupted in the Green Touring Palace. It spread far and wide in the Small World, destroying the peaks...
