Chapter 452 A Little Counterattack
Li Changshou really did not expect that the Heavenly Courts would be in chaos in less than half a day after he entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation
At that moment, the 108 Demon Soldiers were sitting beside the Six Paths of Reincarnation. There were many Netherworld messengers around them.
Li Changshou originally wanted to invite a Demon Soldier commander and seven Demon Soldiers that had previously recovered their “best” to enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation and attempt to restore the seven emotions and six desires...
As soon as he stepped on the soft ground of the Reincarnation Immortal Island, his mind recovered its connection with the paper effigies everywhere. He sensed the commotion in the Water God Residence of the Heavenly Courts.
A few Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals shouted at the study to let Li Changshou meet them in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
The Jade Emperor seemed to be in a hurry. Ao Yi had also rushed to the Moon Palace. He had accidentally lit up Bian Zhuang, who was proficient in water battles, after soaking in the Heavenly River for three years. He was also searching around...
Li Changshou had advanced into the Six Paths of Reincarnation and isolated himself from the outside world. They naturally did not receive any response.
Half a month had passed since the matter regarding Fairy Yun Hua. What happened to the Jade Emperor?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
Take a step back and suffer more?
In the Netherworld, Li Changshou bowed to the Six Paths of Reincarnation and gestured for the Demon soldiers to rest there. Then, he sat down cross-legged and returned his attention to the Heavenly Courts’ Water God Residence.
He was just an employee. Since Little Boss had summoned him, he naturally had to rush over.
A moment later, Li Changshou did not stop. He rushed into the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. The white-robed Jade Emperor, who was pacing back and forth in the Treasure Hall, raised his hand and activated the layers of restrictions in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
The Jade Emperor was a little drunk. He wanted to speak a few times, but he ended up panting heavily. In the end, he stomped his feet and cursed, “I can’t stand this! Changgeng, think of a way to go back! Immediately! If that doesn’t work, I’ll go to their spiritual mountain and cause a scene. I’ll kill a few of his disciples. It’s his fault for being unrestrained! It’s his fault for killing mortals as a dignified Saint! Where’s the justice? Is there any reason?! Teacher said that the six Saints are already the foundation of the Heavenly Dao. Is that the foundation? Is that how a Saint should be?”
“Your Majesty...”
Li Changshou wanted to persuade him, but when he saw that the Jade Emperor was still angry and a little drunk, he could only wait quietly below.
What’s there to be angry about...
Everyone in the world knows what the six Saints are like. The ultimate meaning of the Western Sect was to say, “I think your family is fated with the Western Sect.”
You can never overestimate your enemy’s morals.
In a drunken stupor, the Jade Emperor scolded Li Changshou for almost an hour. He realized that Li Changshou did not say a word and was a little bored. He frowned and said, “Changgeng, what’s with your expression? Do you think I scolded you wrongly?” “Your Majesty is right, but...”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “It’s fine if His Majesty vents his anger in front of me. Don’t say that to others. The six Saints are all Saints. Although their personalities, character, and cultivation levels are vastly different, entering the Saint realm is equivalent to stepping into another realm. If you scold a Saint with improper conduct, the other Saints will also feel offended.”
The Jade Emperor frowned and nodded slowly. “I know about that. Senior Brother Taiqing, Senior Brother Yuqing, and Senior Brother Shangqing are the followers of the Great God Pangu’s essence soul. Their personalities are either noble, noble, or carefree. They are all a clear stream in the Primordial World. The Goddess is even more benevolent and compassionate. Creating humans and mending the heavens, which of them is not a matter of boundless merit!?! In fact, although the senior brother who had received him had a deeper mind, he would not be so unscrupulous and shameless! What about Cundi? Cundi thinks that he is a Saint and does whatever he wants!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLi Changshou was rendered speechless.
That was nothing.
The follow-up could be predicted, and there was a high chance that there would be a plot where the Saint would cause trouble. There would also be “Goddess Di Xin’s Temple is promoting poems”. That would truly affect the luck of the world.
Li Changshou bowed and said, “Your Majesty, please calm down. Anger cannot solve anything.” “I’m not angry. I’m frustrated!”
The Jade Emperor gritted his teeth and cursed, “I thought that you would be able to retaliate, Changgeng. However, it has been half a month. The Primordial World is filled with curses directed against you. The Western Sect is even adding fuel to the fire. They say that you and I deliberately harmed Fairy Yun Hua for the dignity of the Heavenly Courts.
They said that I’m using my own sister to uphold the heavenly might!
Ridiculous! Ridiculous!”
Li Changshou frowned and said, “Your Majesty, please don’t be emotional. Fairy Yun Hua has made a mistake in the first place. It will be difficult for the Heavenly Courts to convince the masses without punishment. This is the foundation of the Heavenly Courts’ management of the Three Realms. Don’t lose it. I know that His Majesty is depressed. Being bullied by that person... If Your Majesty wants to retaliate, I have three strategies.”
The Jade Emperor’s eyes lit up. He sat at the highest point of the jade stairs and shook his sleeves. “Speak!”
“The easiest solution is to investigate the matter regarding the Immortal Elder of Talisman Essence,” Li Changshou said calmly. “As long as His Majesty is in the Heavenly Courts and uses the power of the Heavenly Dao to envelop the Heavenly Courts, no one can pretend to be an Immortal God of the Heavenly Courts in the future.
In that case, we can even slander him. I have some evidence that the Immortal Elder Fu Yuan is plotting against me.
Other evidence could be fabricated according to the need. If there is insufficient evidence, we can also find a trustworthy immortal to be a witness. We can use the Shadow-Retaining Ball to record what they say and use it to pressure the Western Sect.
I wanted to do this plan before, but I gave up after that.”
The Jade Emperor frowned and said, “Why did you give up?”
“Without the power to sever the Saint, no matter how hard we work, we will only embarrass the Saint.” Li Changshou sighed and said, “That old master dared to do that because he knows that no matter how shameless he was, he would be fine. On the other hand, would the old master care about that? Moreover, the other Saints would not start a battle with him... Therefore, this plan is not painful.”
The Jade Emperor calmed down slightly and continued to ask, “What’s the plan?”
“Please make the decision, Dao Ancestor... However, the Dao Ancestor only reprimanded him a few times. What’s the use?”
“What is the best plan?”
“Wait for the opportunity to counterattack.”
Starlight surged in Li Changshou’s eyes. He looked up at the Jade Emperor and whispered, “I have something to report to Your Majesty. Seven years ago, I had already guessed that Saint Zhun Ti might have already taken action and interfered with the matter regarding Fairy Yun Hua. His Majesty did not know that among Fairy Yun Hua’s children, her son, Yang Jian, was very lucky! I have secretly checked his cultivation aptitude. It is not unique, but it is comparable to the original human race. When Yang Jian was born, I already understood what Saint Zhun Ti wanted to do. He wanted Yang Jian to go against the Heavenly Courts and secretly arrange for Yang Jian to enter Chan School to cultivate. After Yang Jian succeeded in cultivating, he would bewitch Yang Jian and start a war with the Heavenly Courts! Yesterday, Yang Jian was discovered by an immortal of Chan School who “happened” to pass by. Your Majesty, please take note that the incidents here are not really coincidental. Now that Yang Jian has become Perfected Yu Ding’s disciple, Perfected Yu Ding has been studying the Eight-Nine Arcane Art that the Lady of Earth had given him. Moreover, Perfected Yu Ding is a mighty figure of the Primordial World. I believe that in a few hundred years, Yang Jian will become an expert!”
The Jade Emperor came to a realization and said, “So that’s why you imprisoned Hua Yun. When the time comes, you can make Yang Jian bow to the Heavenly Courts, is that so?”
“Your Majesty, how can the feud caused by him killing your father and capturing your mother be resolved so easily?”
Li Changshou smiled and took out a treasure pouch from his sleeve. He pushed it towards the white-robed Jade Emperor with his immortal power.
The Jade Emperor was a little puzzled. He opened the treasure pouch and saw more than ten Shadow-Retaining Balls inside. They were also numbered.
The Jade Emperor picked up the first Shadow-Retaining Ball and probed it with his immortal senses. He could not help but be stunned.
It was the scene in Mu Hua Courtyard. Yang Tianyou, Xia Ningshuang, and Hua Youming were in class together. Hua Youming even turned around and threw a children’s book to Yang Tianyou, who was in the back seat.
The Jade Emperor was speechless.
“Changgeng, why are you recording this? Back then, you actually used a Dharma treasure to record all these?”
Li Changshou smiled awkwardly.
He had to leave some backup plans in case the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother blamed Mu Qinghua. He could also produce some convincing evidence.
“Your Majesty, continue watching.”
The Jade Emperor picked up the second Shadow-Retaining Ball. It was the scene of Li Changshou taking Fairy Yun Hua to the Heavenly Courts. There was the greeting between Fairy Yun Hua and Yang Tianyou.
The scenes in the third Shadow-Retaining Ball were captured by Long Ji. It was a scene of her playing in the Heavenly Courts with Fairy Yun Hua.
The “unrestrained” Shadow Sphere was Fairy Yun Hua who had come to the Moon Palace and told Li Changshou that she wanted to descend to the mortal world. Li Changshou reminded Fairy Yun Hua that it did not conform to the rules of the Heavenly Courts...
The Shadow-Retaining Balls were watched one after another. The content seemed to be unrelated, but when they were inserted, they were the story of Fairy Yun Hua and Yang Tianyou.
The two most important Shadow-Retaining Balls were in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. The Jade Emperor had ordered to bring Fairy Yun Hua and her family back to the Heavenly Courts.
One of them was the situation in the Yang Residence. From the shocking scene captured in the corner of the Hua Residence, he could see Li Changshou protecting Fairy Yun Hua. He could also see the golden light in the eyes of the Heavenly Soldiers...
The second last Shadow-Retaining Ball was in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. Li Changshou repeatedly asked Fairy Yun Hua if she knew her mistake. Fairy Yun Hua knelt down and begged the Heavenly Courts to spare Yang Jian and Yang Chan.
The last Shadow-Retaining Ball contained the scene of two little ones wrapped in tattered blankets at the entrance of the street and sleeping together at night... “Well...”
After reading it, the Jade Emperor was speechless for a long time. He put the Shadow-Retaining Ball back into the treasure pouch and held the treasure pouch while thinking
Li Changshou added, “At this moment, we only need to wait a few hundred years. When will Yang Jian have the power to tear apart Golden Immortals? When will he become a sharp blade that the Western Sect uses to plot against the Heavenly Courts? As long as the Western Sect continues to promote this plan, we will beat them at their own game. Naturally, I will continue to interfere in the future and will not let Perfected Yu Ding tell Yang Jian the truth. I must be bold enough to say a few heartfelt words to His Majesty. After I saw Yang Jian’s potential and destiny, I had already schemed against the Western Sect and used the Western Sect to plant an obsession i
n Yang Jian’s heart. That way, Yang Jian would have a chance to become a Golden Immortal in a few hundred years. Although obsession and hatred are dangerous, in ancient times, the human race had used them to create Demon Soldiers and defeat the Demon Court... Therefore, I did not make full arrangements in the Yang Residence. I had long predicted the death of Yang Tianyou and Yang Jiao. However, I only wanted to try to save Yang Tianyou for a short period of time. I did my best and did not force him. When Yang Jian rose and attacked the Heavenly Courts, Your Majesty only has to arrange for the Immortal Bean Soldiers to welcome him and disperse his spirit first. Then, I will stand up and lead him to Fairy Yun Hua and bring him to her. I hope that His Majesty will take good care of the Shadow-Retaining Ball in his hand in case Yang Jian comes to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall to cause trouble... I have already made seven sets of Shadow-Retaining Spheres. Later on, I will also create an array formation around Fairy Yun Hua. It could turn the situation in the Shadow-Retaining Sphere into an illusion. At that moment, Yang Jian rushed into the place where Fairy Yun Hua was imprisoned. After reading the contents, he saw Fairy Yun Hua standing in the cage. No matter how strong Yang Jian’s Dao heart was and how deep his obsession was, he should be shaken. If Yang Jian still hates the Heavenly Courts, I still have some trump cards to use. At this moment, if Your Majesty wants to retaliate against the Western Sect, you can let Yang Jian cause trouble on the spiritual mountain. I will lead the Dao Sect and suppress the Western Sect! If Your Majesty wants to protect Yang Jian safely, I will persuade Yang Jian to let him know who the enemy is and then reward Yang Jian and his mother. This is the best plan that I can think of.”
As soon as Li Changshou finished speaking, the Jade Emperor on the jade steps held the treasure pouch and heaved a sigh of relief.
The Jade Emperor held the treasure pouch and wanted to laugh, but he could not. His expression was a little conflicted and relieved.
“Changgeng, why... can you think of all these?”
Li Changshou smiled helplessly and sighed. “Actually, I’m also a schemer. However, the Western Sect is scheming against Chan School and the Heavenly Courts. My plan is to be a fierce general for the Heavenly Courts. It’s really a little... embarrassing to have a civil servant like me appear when we encounter a battle.”
The Jade Emperor was stunned. Then, he clapped and laughed.
Li Changshou looked hesitant. He pondered carefully. In the end, he decided to tell her the rest of the plan.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe timing was just right.
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Your Majesty, do you think that my plan will end here?” The Jade Emperor was stunned. “Changgeng what other schemes do you have?”
“Your Majesty.” Li Changshou pointed at the sky and gestured for him to keep quiet.
The Jade Emperor understood and waved his sleeve. The extremely rich Heavenly Dao power enveloped the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. “Just say
it.”
“Your Majesty, don’t forget that 90 years later, the Purple Cloud Palace will discuss the matter of becoming a god.” “Oh?”
“I’ve been thinking about it for a long time when I was recuperating. Your Majesty, there’s something that you have to fight for.”
“What?”
The God roll!
Of course, he could not say that out loud. Li Changshou could only say, “The authority to lead the Great God-Conferment Tribulation!” The Jade Emperor pondered and nodded slowly. “Tell me in detail.”
“Whoever controls the God-Conferment authority will be able to better plan this great calamity.”
Li Changshou said, “If any Saint of the three sects takes the lead, the Heavenly Courts will definitely be restrained. That Saint will not let too many of his disciples enter the Heavenly Courts. Originally, I want Your Majesty to fight for the dominance from the perspective of “This is for the Heavenly Courts to decide which one of the Heavenly Courts should enter the Deity Position’ and ‘If any of the Saints of the three sects are in charge, it will be unfair’. I’ve even prepared a backup plan. If Your Majesty can’t obtain the authority to lead, I will... recommend the Grand Pure One to take the lead in front of the Six Saints and the Dao Ancestor. Today, the Western Sect has given us a perfect reason.”
“What reason?”
“A Saint has lost his morals,” Li Changshou said. “When Your Majesty arrives, I will reveal the matter regarding Fairy Yun Hua. I will take out the Shadow-Retaining Ball that I gave Your Majesty and bring the rules hidden under the table to the front of the platform. However, I cannot directly call out Saint Zhun Ti. Your Majesty said that there are already Saints who have no morals. How can they replace the Heavenly Dao and become gods?”
The Jade Emperor was puzzled. “Why didn’t you name him? Wouldn’t it be nice to just scold him?”
Li Changshou could not help but have a headache.
After he came to the Heavenly Courts, the Jade Emperor’s thinking was getting easier...
Li Changshou smiled and said, “If you name him, Your Majesty, your actions will be comparing the other Saints with this immoral Saint. I’m afraid that the Saints will be displeased. Your Majesty, don’t go overboard. Not only did he protect the reputation of the other Saints, but he also made the other Saints unhappy with the Sixth Saint. The Saint is not afraid of the Great Tribulation. That is the confidence of the Saint. However, what the Heavenly Dao had given him had already been stated clearly. Now that the calamity had arrived, the deduction of the Saint had been interfered. That Saint directly attacked the Heavenly Courts. This move was indeed brilliant and unexpected, but it was not impossible to resolve. Moreover, his attack had already left behind hidden dangers. He did not enter the Tribulation realm. Where are his disciples? Your Majesty! I ask for Your Majesty’s permission! Once we obtain this authority, the disciples of the Western Saints will not be allowed to become the legitimate gods of the Heavenly Courts! I predicted that if I died in the Great Tribulation and entered the Heavenly Courts as a God, it would be the last chance of survival. As for the Western Sect... Let them carry it themselves.”
“Alright! Let’s do that!”
The Jade Emperor stood up. He was originally angry, but at that moment, his emotions were surging. He wished that decades would pass in a flash.
Li Changshou sighed softly in his heart.
It was easier said than done. He had to fill in the details of his plans step by step. Moreover, there were some things that he could not even discuss with Mr. Bai.
Hence, after 90... breaths.
Li Changshou left the Lingxiao Hall and returned to the Water God Residence to meditate. The incarnation in the Moon Palace also sat cross-legged.
He focused his attention on the Netherworld and began to bring the Demon Soldiers into the Six Paths of Reincarnation to study how to make the Demon Soldiers return to their normal emotions...
However, what Li Changshou did not know was that as soon as he entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation and lost contact with the outside world, an important guest arrived in the Moon Palace.
The esteemed guest had even bowed and called Li Changshou a few times, but Li Changshou ignored him. In the end, he flicked his sleeve angrily and left, leading to a strange conversation in the Heavenly Courts.
