My Senior Brother is Too Steady

The white cloud slowly dissipated, and the young girl in a light green dress floated over with the breeze in the forest. She landed gracefully in front of the Pill Chamber. Li Changshou was lying on the rocking chair and waving a fan leisurely. His eyes were slightly squinted, and he looked relaxed and calm.

Ling’e blinked. Just as she was about to ask her senior brother if there was something joyous, she heard a voice transmission.

“Just in case, don’t think about anything related to what I do outside the sect in the future. The enemies now are more shameless. They also have the ability to listen to people’s thoughts. Your cultivation level is too low. If you have any distracting thoughts, others might hear them. Although our tracks have yet to be exposed, the risk of being exposed has already reached 0.3% to 0.4%. We have to be extra careful.”

Can’t even think about it?

That seems to be very difficult.

Um, so Senior Brother means that... the Heaven Immortal realm is equivalent to a low cultivation level?

“Oh,” Ling’e replied obediently. She placed her hands behind her back and took two steps forward. Then, she asked via voice transmission, “Senior Brother, if I can’t help but think about this matter...”

“Then go to the secret chamber under the Pill Chamber.” Li Changshou sent a voice transmission. “I’ve just set up an array formation around the secret chamber to conceal the heavenly secrets.”

Ling’e asked in surprise, “Can I enter as I please?”

Li Changshou smiled and did not say anything. He squinted and slowly waved the fan. Ling’e secretly made a face and ran to the Pill Chamber to get a cushion. She sat cross-legged and meditated, separated from her senior brother by a door.

The hem of her green and white dress landed around her, and she looked like a lotus flower that was slowly blooming. Her beautiful hair hung down behind her chest, and the ends of her hair swayed gently in the wind...

A few moments later... Ling’e used her ancestral technique and sent a voice transmission to him. “Senior Brother, are you suddenly free today?”

“Are you free?”

Li Changshou waved his left hand, and a red clay teapot flew out of the Pill Chamber. He brought it to his mouth and smashed it twice.

“If I’m free, why would I be sunbathing here? I would have refined pills long ago. It’s only the calm before the storm. I have to calm down and wait for the subsequent developments. Do you know that I’m looking at the Kunlun Jade Void Palace from afar, the Heavenly Courts’ Lingxiao Hall, and the South Ocean Golden Ao Island using my mind? Sometimes I have to look at the Netherworld too. I’m very busy.”

Ling’e could not help but say in surprise, “Senior Brother, you can actually recite poems now!”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

“Shut up. I’m busy with work.”

“Yes!”

Ling’e secretly made a face at the side. Li Changshou turned around and glanced at her. Ling’e instantly sat up straight and quickly entered a meditative state to cultivate.

Li Changshou smiled. Just as he was about to focus on the sleeve of Daoist Huang Long in the Jade Void Palace of the Kunlun Mountain, his immortal senses suddenly captured two familiar figures flying out of the Heaven-Breaking Peak and rushing towards the sect.

Youqin Xuanya, who had just left the Little Qiong Peak, seemed to have something urgent to attend to. She accompanied her master, Jiang Jingshan, out of the sect...

Immediately after, two elders and three executives flew out of the Heaven-Breaking Peak and met up with Youqin Xuanya and her disciple. They rode a cloud towards the south.

Li Changshou was also puzzled. He did not know what had happened.

However, at that moment, he was still busy with the games between Chan School, Jie School, the Western Sect, and the Heavenly Courts. He could not pay attention to his fellow disciples.

He decided to ask around later.

Li Changshou calmed his mind and focused on the paper effigy in Perfected Huang Long’s sleeve...

Perfected Huang Long had already returned to the Jade Void Palace for a few hours.

He felt a little uneasy and paced back and forth in the hall where he was cultivating. He even knocked over two precious vases.

The honest dragon of Chan School had already snorted six times, gritted his teeth several times, and stomped his feet countless times. It vividly demonstrated what it meant by ‘the more I think about it, the angrier I get. The more I take a step back, the more I suffer’...

Li Changshou kept giving out instructions.

“You have to attract the attention of others and look like you want others to listen to you but you can’t bring yourself to say it. That’s the most realistic...”

“Usually, only 10% of one’s emotions should be revealed. Don’t think about moving others with this 10%. You have to use your personality... It’s useless to shout with your voice. Eyes are very important.”

Although Perfected Huang Long felt that the Water God was too meticulous, he felt that what the latter said made sense.

Finally, the restless Huang Long attracted the attention of his fellow disciples...

The first to arrive was Chi Jingzi, who was ranked second among the twelve Golden Immortals.

The old Daoist priest was dressed in a brown Daoist robe and looked even thinner than before. When he arrived at Perfected Huang Long’s hall, his eyes were filled with confusion.

“Junior Brother, what’s wrong?”

Perfected Huang Long stood with his hands behind his back. He raised his head and sighed. His lips trembled a few times. He wanted to look at Chi Jingzi, but he looked away. His eyes were slightly watery... Li Changshou thought, You’ve gone too far. You’ve gone too far, Master Huang!

When Chi Jingzi saw that, he hurriedly said, “Did you hear about the matters in the East Ocean Sea Eye? You were cultivating in seclusion. You don’t have to blame yourself.”

As soon as he said that, Perfected Huang Long looked ashamed. In terms of feelings, he had already naturally reached the realm of being unable to distinguish between real and fake.

“Ah!”

Perfected Huang Long sighed dejectedly. “I failed to help the dragon race. I have let down this line of succession. Today, I was insulted by the senior brother and junior brother of Jie School. I’m so depressed!”

“What’s going on?”.

Chi Jingzi quickly walked forward and said seriously, “They even insulted us? What does the matter of the dragon race have to do with Jie School!?!”

“It’s not about the dragon race... Sigh!”

“Junior Brother Huang Long, tell me in detail. If Jie School goes too far, we will definitely find them and demand an explanation!”

At that moment, Perfected Huang Long sighed and told him about how he had gone to the Luofu Cave to look for Zhao Gongming. However, he had encountered the Goddess of Fire Spirit. He also said that rumors were spreading in the five continents. The rumors about the Fire Spirit and Zhao Gongming were discussed enthusiastically...

“They did not distinguish between right and wrong, and blamed everything on me! Ever since I returned from the Luofu Cave, I have been cultivating in the hall. I have not done anything! I have not said a word! I explained to them, but they refused to believe me. They even forced me to swear a Great Dao oath. I! I!”

Chi Jingzi widened his eyes and said, “Junior Brother, did you swear?”

“I... did...”

“You’re going too far!”

Chi Jingzi cursed, “We are all disciples of the Saint. We cultivate ordinary mystical abilities and Dao techniques. Why are they so overbearing!? Since the Jie School does not trust Chan School, what’s the point of saying that the three sects are related!?!

Junior Brother, go and find Eldest Senior Brother and report this matter to him! When I call my fellow disciples who have yet to enter seclusion over, I will go and ask them for an explanation. I will definitely make them apologize to you! Hmph!”

Then, Chi Jingzi turned around and walked away indignantly.

Perfected Huang Long felt a little guilty and asked Li Changshou via voice transmission, “Is... is this alright?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Follow the script. The angrier he is now, the more touched he will be later...

When you meet Senior Brother Guang Chengzi later, you have to report everything in detail. The most important thing is to get Senior Brother Guang Chengzi’s cooperation.”

“Ah.” Perfected Huang Long stood up and headed towards the Golden Hall of the Jade Void Palace according to Chi Jingzi.

Things were progressing smoothly on Chan School’s side.

When Guang Chengzi heard that the Great Daoist Master and Daoist Duobao had participated in the plan, he heard Daoist Huang Long explain the various benefits of the plan in detail...

The immortal from the Jade Void Palace pondered for a while and finally nodded.

Chi Jingzi found many of the disciples of Chan School — Perfected Yu Ding, Perfected Taiyi, Ju Liusun, the Heavenly Lord Wenshu Guangfa, the Great Daoist Master Lingbao, and the Heavenly Lord of Dao cultivation.

Under Guang Chengzi’s orders, the immortals of Chan School left the Jade Void Palace.

Just as the immortals of Chan School were about to go to Jie School to question them, a soft sigh came from behind them. Daoist Randeng quickly floated over from the cloud and asked them why they were going out...

Guang Chengzi originally did not want to bother with him, but a short and honest-looking Golden Immortal had already stood up. He was none other than Ju Liusun.

Ju Liu Sun said, “Deputy Sect Master, you might not know this, but Senior Brother Duobao from Jie School has gone too far. He insulted Senior Brother Huang Long. We are angry and want to seek an explanation from them.”

“Oh?”

Randeng frowned and said, “The Chan School has already had several disputes with the Jie School. The Three Sects’ Meet seems to have happened yesterday. The Jie School can no longer hold it in! The Jie School is known to have tens of thousands of immortals. There are many people. Today, I will go with you. Let’s see what tricks he has!”

It was time to fan the flames.

Fortunately, Li Changshou had already expected Randeng to appear.

In the rear hall of the Sea God Temple, Li Changshou, who was secretly analyzing the personalities of the twelve Golden Immortals of Chan School, pursed his lips and wrote a line of words.

“Deng, deng, deng, deng.” At that moment, more than half of the twelve Golden Immortals, a Deputy Sect Master of Chan School, and more than a hundred cultivators in the Jade Void Palace rushed towards the southeast.

As soon as the immortals flew to the central region of the Middle Continent, a few of the twelve Golden Immortals with higher cultivation levels frowned. They each sent a voice transmission to remind them and looked towards the southeast.

There, a huge white cloud with hundreds of immortals was approaching them!

Among the hundreds of immortals, the first person was the slightly plump Daoist who was dressed in a brocade robe. He was the one who liked to take turns in the pile of treasures...

Ahem, rumors, rumors.

He was the eldest senior brother of Jie School, the favorite disciple of the Grandmaster of Heaven, Daoist Duobao!

The two fairies On Daoist Duobao’s left were especially eye-catching. One of them was tall and slender. She had a light pink chest, a swan’s neck, a tube top, and a long dress that shone with golden light. Her head accessories were also shining with golden light. She was the Goddess of Golden Spirit, one of the four inner sect disciples.

The strength of the Goddess of Golden Spirit was definitely in the top five of Jie School. Apart from Daoist Duobao, who could be called the number one immortal under the Grandmaster of Jie School, the powers of the Goddess of Golden Spirit, Fairy Yun Xiao, Zhao Gongming, and the Black Clouds Immortal were quite similar. It was difficult to tell who was stronger.

However, if they really wanted to spar, the Black Clouds Immortal would be at a disadvantage. After all, he did not have any treasures to protect himself.

The person beside the Goddess of Golden Spirit was the Goddess of Turtle Spirit, who was dressed in a green dress, had green hair, and green eyes.

The three inner sect disciples, Zhao Gongming, who was standing on the right of Daoist Duobao, the ten Heavenly Lords of Golden Ao Island and the Four Little Saints of Nine Dragons Island, who were following behind him, were really experts!

The two immortal clouds met and looked at each other from afar. Both of them stopped in unison.

At the north-west, the immortals of Chan School, led by Guang Chengzi, had solemn expressions. Most of them looked dignified.

Looking at the South-East region, the immortals of Jie School, who had Daoist Duobao as their backbone, were shining brightly. Half of the female immortals were even more colorful. The two of them met each other from hundreds of kilometers away. The two white clouds instantly emitted a strong pressure!

In an instant, the wind stopped and so did the clouds. The sun became a little dim. Many immortals from the two sects, who were standing at the back and had lower cultivation levels, had their essence souls trembling and they could not breathe.

The two parties seemed to have a tacit understanding. They did not greet each other or speak. Daoist Duobao and Guang Chengzi’s eyes were filled with anger... The immortals from both sides were prepared to fight!

At the same time, in the treasure land of the spiritual mountain,

Dozens of old Daoists gathered beside a treasure pool. Two old Daoists took action and activated the Cloud Mirror technique to observe the scene from afar.

The members of Jie School and Chan School were about to fight. That was something that they did not expect and were overjoyed about...

The relationship between the Western Sect and the Dao Sect was like this. If the Western Sect wanted to prosper, they had to stop the Dao Sect from prospering. From the ancient times until now, they had secretly done so many things. Only two or three times had such a situation occurred. Moreover, both parties had restrained themselves and returned each time.

Unexpectedly, they had not done anything yet, but both sides had walked to the edge of the battle...

With the blessings of the Heavenly Dao, the Western Sect would prosper!

In a corner that the old Daoist priest did not pay attention to, the Truth Listener divine beast was sending a voice transmission to the young Daoist priest sitting beside it. The young Daoist priest’s expression was extremely solemn.

Why...

He had deduced hundreds of possibilities for the conspiracy of rumors, but what happened now was the most unlikely outcome.

The conflict between Jie School and Chan School was triggered by such a small matter?

With the mystical ability of the Truth Listener divine beast, the young Daoist had witnessed the entire process...

From the moment Perfected Huang Long left the Luofu Cave indignantly, the young Daoist had already understood that his little scheme had played a huge role!

He was satisfied that he could create a rift between Jie School and Chan School, but he was not complacent.

As long as he accumulated enough of these gaps, they would eventually explode. He would not suffer too much karma for such a trivial matter.

He was just like a snowflake during an avalanche. Although he was not innocent, the karma backlash would not be too strong. However, the subsequent developments were completely beyond his expectations.

On the Golden Ao Island of Jie School, the Goddess of Fire Spirit was actually so unyielding. Without saying a word, she raised her sword and was about to commit suicide, causing the immortals of Golden Ao Island to be shocked.

In the Jade Void Palace, the more Perfected Huang Long thought about it, the angrier he became. He even smashed two treasure bottles!

Truth Listener could not hear Perfected Huang Long’s thoughts directly, but he could hear the discussions of some disciples with lower cultivation levels in the Jade Void Palace.

At that moment, Truth Listener and its master, Ksitigarbha, still did not know what was about to happen.

When the immortals from both sides moved and Chan School appeared, the Goddess of Golden Spirit of Jie School and the Goddess of Turtle Spirit appeared. Both sides suppressed their anger and seemed to have no choice but to release their arrows...

The entire process was very fast. There was no chance for Ksitigarbha to do anything.

Ksitigarbha sighed in his heart. There was a hint of confusion and helplessness in his eyes. However, it quickly turned into indignation and he said softly, “I was tricked.”

“Why?” Truth Listener asked via voice transmission. “Master, isn’t that what you want?”

Ksitigarbha sighed and said, “No, I don’t want to see such a situation. What I want to see is to slowly and steadily accumulate, not to achieve success in one step! Someone must be using me to spread rumors and plotting in secret. If the two sects fight today, any disciple of a Saint would definitely be alarmed. There is nothing that can stop the deduction of the Saint. I will definitely be pushed out to appease the Dao Sect.”

Ksitigarbha’s eyes focused as thoughts flashed through his mind. Although he was sitting on the spiritual mountain, the pressure of the immortals from the two sects landed on his back like a mountain.

Truth Listener asked, “Can’t you crack it?”

Cold sweat broke out on Ksitigarbha’s forehead as he replied via voice transmission, “I can’t crack it. The schemes of rumors can’t be controlled once they are released. It was originally a small scheme, but it was used as a shield. I schemed and that person attacked openly. The other party has killed three birds with one stone. They are targeting me, the first person to attack. The only way is to persuade the immortals of the two sects. Although I can protect myself, I will be blamed by Teacher... It’s a dilemma to enter the painting. It’s better to observe the situation and use my schemes on the changes in the situation later.”

Truth Listener shifted its head. “I told you long ago not to use such a lowly scheme.”

“Ah... There’s actually an expert taking over. I really did not expect that.”

An expert?

Ksitigarbha turned to look at the mountain behind the spiritual mountain and the place surrounded by golden light. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

To be able to affect Perfected Huang Long and the Goddess of Fire Spirit in a short period of time and cause a huge commotion...

If one were to judge from the analysis of the beneficiaries or the abilities of the person who did it...

Teacher, could it be that in your eyes, I’m just a pawn that can be abandoned at any time, just like that Golden Cicada...

The young Daoist closed his eyes and sighed softly. He pondered about it and could only sit still.

Truth Listener suddenly said, “Could it be that the Dao Sect is deliberately putting on an act?”

The young Daoist frowned and pondered. Soon, he smiled bitterly and shook his head. “There are so many disciples of the Saint. Could it be that they are just trying to scare me? At this moment, I can only wait for some matters to happen in the future. I hope that they will not fight. I really can’t get involved with the Dao Sect.”
