My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 176 It’s a Mistake

The Great Daoist Master asked Elder Moon to send him the ‘Casting Beans To Form Soldiers’ and ‘Cloud-condensing Strongman’ mystical abilities. That made Li Changshou strongly feel that he was being nurtured.

Did I form... the battle sequence of the Ren School Army of the Primordial World?

This...

However, the modifications of any original mystical ability would require a lot of time, energy, inspiration, and brainstorming.

Li Changshou did not have the chance to activate those two mystical abilities. He was not sure if they would be of use in the future.

In any case, he could not let down the Great Daoist Master’s efforts. He could go back and think about it. At the very least, he had to master the original mystical abilities...

In the Sea God Temple, Li Changshou had already finished writing the second memorial with the paper effigy that was disguised as an old immortal.

Then, he found two Divine Envoys from Xiong Village and brought two Magihumans to a remote village.

Now that the Heavenly Courts’ decree had not been issued, Li Changshou could not set up the Jade Emperor shrine in the Sea God Temple. Therefore, he found a fishing village to ‘test’. He asked the villagers to worship the Sea God and also use incense offerings to worship the “man behind the Sea God”—the Jade Emperor.

To this day, the Jade Emperor shrine had already accepted quite a lot of incense offerings. He felt that it should be able to make the Jade Emperor feel a faint sensation.

Li Changshou arrived at a secret chamber and set up a barrier. He offered three incense sticks to the Jade Emperor’s “tablet” and bowed deeply.

“Your Majesty, I have something important to tell you.”

There was a slight fluctuation of Dao runes on the tablet that was inlaid with gold and jade. Clearly, it was responding to Li Changshou. Within two hours, General Dongmu rushed over from the Heavenly Courts and met Li Changshou at the Sea God Temple.

Li Changshou paid special attention to General Dongmu’s energy, and spirit. He realized that he had returned to normal.

Although it was a and frustrating experience for the Qi Refinement cultivators of the Primordial World, General Dongmu did not lose anything previously. He had only been pranked and was fine after his anger had subsided.

Actually, at the end of the day, being scammed in the Primordial World, merely meant that one’s mystical abilities were inferior to others.

The two of them chatted for a while before Li Changshou handed the second memorial to General Dongmu. General Dongmu did not dare to delay any further. He immediately went back to report. However, Li Changshou shouted, “General Dongmu, wait.”

“Hey, what’s wrong?”

General Dongmu turned around and looked at the benevolent-looking, white-haired, and thin old man.

At that moment, General Dongmu could not tell whether it was the Sea God’s incarnation or his main body with his eyesight and cultivation level...

“What else do you have to say, Sea God?”

“Are you familiar with Elder Moon from the Elder Moon Hall?”

“Of course,” General Dongmu said with a smile. “Previously, it was all thanks to Elder Moon’s help that things went smoothly for me. Now, my wife and I get along very well.”

Li Changshou pondered for a while and said, “In a while, if His Majesty wishes to give the Elder Moon a decree, I hope that you can relay a message to Elder Moon. I originally wanted to write these four sentences in the form of a memorial, but I thought that since it is such a small matter, it would be too showy because it will be presented to His Majesty.”

“Oh?” General Dongmu said, “Please explain, Fellow Daoist.”

Li Changshou reminded, “If Elder Moon is going out on behalf of the Heavenly Courts, he will still have to remember not to judge seniority based on cultivation level or age.

His words and actions represent His Majesty’s authority. He must not make any promises and should act safely.”

When General Dongmu heard that, he pondered for a while and understood what it meant. He bowed to Li Changshou and sighed.

“The Sea God’s advice is not just for Elder Moon. I have learned something too.”

Li Changshou smiled and did not say anything else. It was fine if he did not expose the subtle misunderstanding that could help him.

Although the contents of the memorial were simple, it was much harder to write than the previous one.

Li Changshou was worried that the Jade Emperor would think that he had gotten too many people involved. It was as if the Heavenly Courts was trying to curry favor with the dragon race and hence, he was secretly displeased.

Secondly, he was afraid that the Jade Emperor would overexert himself and show too much of a liking to the dragon race. That would make it difficult for the dragon race to respect the Heavenly Courts.

Apart from that, he could not tell the Jade Emperor what to do. He could only express his opinions and make decisions based on the Jade Emperor’s instructions...

As such, Li Changshou pondered over the terms and phrases repeatedly. After modifying them more than ten times, he felt that it was appropriate...

As for the effect, he could only wait and see. When General Dongmu came again, he could give him some user feedback.

Li Changshou had just sent General Dongmu off when he heard a low voice.

His immortal senses had naturally captured the scene of Youqin Xuanya walking beside him...

...

“Aunt-Master Xiong, has Senior Brother Changshou been cultivating?”

Youqin Xuanya asked softly within the immortal power boundary that Jiu Wu had set

up.

Xiong Lingli’s petite head, which looked like it was placed on a huge rock, bobbed slightly as she nodded. She suppressed her voice and whispered, “Cousin went out for a walk earlier on. He brought back some wild animals for me to eat. After that, he gained a lot of insight and had been cultivating.”

Youqin Xuanya looked at Li Changshou who was inside through the shimmering barrier. She sighed softly and turned to leave.

Xiong Lingli suddenly shouted softly, “Big Sister...”

Youqin Xuanya stopped in her tracks and turned to look at her. She reminded her, “Aunt-Master, you should address me as your Disciple-Niece or call me by my name.”

“I’m just an in-name disciple.” Xiong Lingli blinked and asked softly, “Do you... like my cousin?”

Instantly, the ears in the surroundings perked up, and immortal senses and spiritual senses spread out.

The Ren School had an amazing technique that was good for gossiping

However, what made the people from the Immortal Du Sect and the other two immortal sects slightly surprised was that Youqin Xuanya’s expression remained the same. She maintained her ice-cold aura and did not panic at all.

Youqin Xuanya said, “Aunt-Master, if you’re talking about Dao-companions, I do not have such thoughts. I respect Senior Brother Changshou very much. I see Senior Brother Changshou as a role model because of his character, and I wish to tread on the Immortal Path with him.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Character?

Hiss...

Why would there be similarities in character?

Xiong Lingli blinked and was a little confused. She was about to nod weakly when she heard the Sea God’s voice in her heart... Therefore, Xiong Lingli whispered, “But... Little Missy, if you do that, people will misunderstand that you have feelings for my cousin.”

Youqin Xuanya said calmly, “I don’t mind what others think.”

Xiong Lingli cringed and whispered, “But my cousin might be slightly troubled by this matter...”

Youqin Xuanya was slightly stunned. She turned to look at Li Changshou, who was meditating a few steps away.

Li Changshou continued to transmit his voice. Xiong Lingli continued weakly, “My cousin... the Second Aunt who lives beside my uncle said that when you make friends, you have to respect and understand each other. You have to consider each other’s situation before you can be considered true friends. Missy, you’re very carefree and straightforward. It’s a good thing that you pay attention to your feelings. However, you should also pay attention to your actions and consider if it would affect the people whom you are confessing to. If you only care about your own thoughts and not care if others are under pressure... Isn’t that a little too much? You’re just sparing a thought for yourself...”

Youqin Xuanya was completely stunned. She frowned and stood still.

Many young Qi Refinement cultivators around them were puzzled.

There were also young Qi Refinement cultivators who felt that the male disciple was lucky to have a female disciple like Youqin Xuanya, who was both beautiful and elegant, take the initiative to be friendly to him.

However, many Qi Refinement cultivators, who had cultivated for more than a thousand years, fell into deep thought when they heard that. They felt that the words spoken by the young and burly girl were different.

Many of the Elders of the Carefree Immortal Sect frowned. They had a feeling that the young girl had deliberately acted out the scene of them in the Immortal Sect!

“Xuanya, I don’t quite understand...”

Youqin Xuanya said in a low voice. She bowed to Xiong Lingli and said, “Thank you for your guidance, Aunt-Master. I will think carefully about what you said.”

Xiong Lingli hurriedly stood up.

Since the Sea God did not continue to send a voice transmission, she did not dare to say anything else. She only made a majestic and mighty bow...

Youqin Xuanya turned around and returned to her meditation cushion. She held the sword in front of her and fell into deep thought.

Li Changshou, who was pretending to be cultivating, heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the toxic Junior Sister did not say that she had understood...

Li Changshou scanned Jiu Jiu, who was meditating with her eyes closed, with his immortal senses. He was puzzled. For some reason, Aunt-Master Jiu had not been looking for him recently.

The pile of ‘little trinkets’ that he had prepared for her was hence completely useless.

Upon closer look, he realized that Jiu Jiu had fallen asleep.

She set up a small immortal power barrier outside her mouth and nose, preventing the sounds of her snoring from spreading. That was not all. Jiu Jiu used an immortal rope that was a Dharma treasure to bind her hands, in case she used a passive skill that could cause her clothes to disappear after she fell asleep...

She was professional!

Xiong Lingli took a deep breath and sat back on the mattress-sized meditation cushion. She stared at Youqin Xuanya’s back.

It seemed that that beautiful big sister was not the Sea God Queen whom the Sea God liked...

At the border between the South Ocean and the East Ocean, a beautiful figure flew in the sky on a cloud and left with the wind.

Sitting on the cloud was the Qi Refinement cultivator of Golden Ao Island, Han Zhi.

A moment ago, Han Zhi heard Ao Yi, who had returned to Golden Ao Island, a few Aunt-Masters and Uncle-Masters talking about new Dao-companions...

Previously, she had clearly rejected Ao Yi. For some reason, she felt a little disappointed. She wanted to go out for a walk to lift her spirits.

It is a good thing that Uncle-Master Ao Yi had found his beloved Dao companion...

But why...

“Ah, I shall not think too much about it.”

Han Zhi took a deep breath and stared at the boundless smoke. She looked at the soft white clouds in the sky.

She was about to find an uninhabited island to meditate when she suddenly heard a clear greeting...

“Fellow Daoist, are you a member of Jie School?”

Han Zhi looked over and saw a white cloud in the sky. There was a blurry figure.

Han Zhi knew that it was an expert from the sect. She immediately stood up on the cloud and bowed to the sky. “I am cultivating on the Golden Ao Island.”

“Heh, it’s you!”

A bell-like laughter could be heard from the cloud. Before Han Zhi could react, there was a flash of light around her and she was already high up in the sky.

At this moment, Han Zhi also saw the face of this expert. After taking a closer look, she exclaimed softly, “Grandmaster Qiong Xiao!”

“Oh? You know me?”

Qiong Xiao blinked. “It’s fine. Follow me. I want you to do something. If you do well, I will reward you.”

“I’ll do as you say.” Han Zhi quickly lowered her head and replied. She perked up and was quickly led towards the west by Qiong Xiao.

A moment later, Qiong Xiao and Han Zhi landed on a deserted island and met up with... Zhao Gongming, who was hiding in a corner...

Qiong Xiao shouted softly, “Brother, I’ve found a helper. We can trust her, she’s one of

us!”

Han Zhi hurriedly said, “Greetings, Grandmaster.”

“Shh!”

Zhao Gongming gestured for her to keep quiet. Han Zhi pursed her lips tightly, her eyes filled with nervousness.

Qiong Xiao asked softly, “Has that woman left?”

“She’s still hiding there.” Zhao Gongming took out a treasure mirror and pointed it at the mirror. Gradually, the scene that was taking place on an island five thousand kilometers away appeared.

There was a hidden barrier on the island. It was not a problem for Zhao Gongming to see through it.

In the corner of the mirror, the enchanting woman in a red dress could be seen meditating with her eyes closed...

Zhao Gongming frowned. “I’ve secretly calculated a few more times. I only deduced that she is related to the Western Sect, but I don’t know anything about her background. Third Sister, should we get someone else to try it?”

Qiong Xiao curled her lips and snorted.

“It’s her! One look and you can tell that she is the manifestation of an ancient life form. She actually made herself look so alluring. What for? Brother, look at her clothes! Look what she’s wearing! Hmph, don’t go out if you’re dirtying yourself. Don’t hide your ill intentions!”

Master Zhao smiled bitterly, while Qiong Xiao had already started to talk to Han Zhi about what Han Zhi needed to do later...

And so on.

Han Zhi came to a realization and said softly, “Later, Grandmaster Zhao will go and touch the other party first before falling to the ground. Grandmaster Qiong Xiao, you will then go over and say how badly Grandmaster Zhao is injured. Then, I will pretend to pass by and tell that person—’Fellow Daoist, I think it’s better to settle this privately with them. If this matter gets blown up, it will be detrimental to everyone’s interests.”

“Smart. You understand as soon as I give you a hint.”

Qiong Xiao folded her arms and smiled. “Remember to pay attention to your expression and tone. You must make the other party believe you’re sparing a thought for them.”

Han Zhi looked serious and lowered her head to accept the order.

“I will definitely not disappoint you two, Grandmasters!”
