My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 146

Under the tree by the lake, Li Changshou looked at the scene in the straw hut and felt a little emotional.

In the straw hut, the two of them sat facing each other. One of them was dressed in armor that had been polished by the wind and frost, while the other was wearing an immortal robe that streams of light were flowing out of.

The candlelight illuminated his face, making it look like peach blossoms.

The hair in front of his temples was white and he was free of worry.

The mournful tune played using a Sanxian (1. A fretless Chinese lute) sounded by the side, followed by two sentences. Jiang Lin'er said, “You shouldn't have come.”

Exalted Wang Qing said, “I still came.”

Li Changshou was instantly reminded of his previous life…

Huh?

Li Changshou took a look. He did not know when Ling'e, who had been sitting beside him, started to play the Sanxian. The corners of his mouth twitched as he whispered, “Why are you playing randomly? Go serve some

tea.”

“Oh.” Ling'e grimaced and put away the Sanxian. She lowered her head and quickly went to the stove to fiddle with the tea set.

At that moment, Exalted Wang Qing and Jiang Lin'er were in the room, maintaining their silence.

That was the first time in the past half a month that Li Changshou had seen his Grandmaster kneeling properly. Usually, she would spread open the lower hem of her battle armor, which was long and wide, and shake her legs.

Exalted Wang Qing asked, “Since you have already broken through, why do you still want to leave? The Primordial World is dangerous and it's hard to find opportunities. It's better to cultivate peacefully in the sect.”

“I still have some fellow Daoists whom I've been through thick and thin with. I don't want to leave them,” Jiang Lin'er said calmly. “I managed to stay alive and achieve a breakthrough this time by luck. I don't want to continue living in the sect for the rest of my life.”

The man seemed to have something to say, but he only exhaled slowly.

The two of them remained silent for a while. The flame on the wick of the spiritual lamp flickered.

“You're still bothered by what happened back then.”

Jiang Lin'er said, “No, I just feel that my disciple has been wronged, yet you didn't care about it. I feel a little disappointed.”

Exalted Wang Qing said, “At that time, I was in seclusion to seek the perfected Dao. I only came out of seclusion more than six hundred years ago.” Under the willow tree by the lake, Li Changshou sent a voice transmission to his master and asked, “Master, this Exalted Wang Qing, and Grandmaster…”

“I don't know either.” Old Daoist priest Qi Yuan shook his head and replied, “After I entered the sect, I saw the Exalted One visit our Little Qiong Peak. Every time he visited, he would bring along his Junior Sister Jiu Jiu, who had just entered the sect at that time. However, I really did not know that Master and Exalted Wang Qing had this unknown… um! No wonder I haven't been able to transcend the tribulation to become an immortal. In the past thousand years, we, the Little Qiong Peak never got the quotas that should have been allocated to all the peaks. It turns out that there's such a reason.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

He did not know if he should say that his master was magnanimous or that their sect's style was too complicated.

That made Li Changshou understand why his Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu knew his master, and why she visited Little Qiong Peak after he entered the sect.

Moreover, on his first trip to the North Continent to train, Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu had also taken special care of him.

That was the reason.

When Li Changshou learned that it was not because of his aura and appearance that he had attracted the attention of his Little Aunt-Master, his heart instantly… calmed down.

Ling'e carried the tea into the room and returned obediently after serving the tea… Jiang Lin'er said, “When I'm not in the sect in the future, help me look after my Little Qiong Sect if you still care about the ties we had in the past. Don't let the Immortal Downpour Peak bully them again.” “Yes, I agree. Use this to defend yourself.”

The man nodded and agreed. He took out a treasure pouch that Li Changshou seemed to recognize.

Tsk, isn't this the numinous treasure that Uncle-Master Jiu Wu had lent me when I was sparring with Ao Yi in the Hundred Mortal Hall?

Since he gave her a numinous treasure just like that, the two of them must have a close relationship.

After handing over the spirit treasure, Exalted Wang Qing stood up and performed a Dao salute to Jiang Lin'er.

Jiang Lin'er also bowed to him. The two of them looked at each other but did not say anything…

The man turned around and walked out of the courtyard. He slowly took a few steps forward.

He did not wait for the screams behind him. Instead, he rode a cloud and flew towards the Heaven-Breaking Peak.

At that moment, Jiang Lin'er had just chased out of the straw hut and was staring at the back view that had disappeared into the distance. She stood in the breeze of the night and did not speak for a long time.

Hence, a wisp of mournful wails sounded…

Li Changshou glared at Ling'e, who had started playing background music again. The latter paused and said guiltily, “I felt emotional, I felt emotional…”

“Play a happier tune.”

Ling'e thought about it and took out two drums from her sleeve. She blinked at her senior brother and asked for his opinion.

Li Changshou held his forehead and said, “Forget it.”

In front of the straw hut, Jiang Lin'er swept her sleeves and cursed softly at Exalted Wang Qing who had gone missing.

“Boring gourd!”

Then, she turned around and returned to the straw hut, continuing to pack her bags that she had to carry the following morning.

Before Jiang Lin'er left, she was afraid that Qi Yuan would cry. Thus, she used the Immobilizing Spell to lock Qi Yuan in the straw hut while Li Changshou and Ling'e sent her off.

Next, she had to return to her place in the trichiliocosm to discuss with her friends who had gone to Hell, before finding the place where her eldest disciple Wan Jiangyu's soul had landed.

Jiang Lin'er said, “I'll have to trouble the two of you to look after your master… Alright, go back. Don't be so sad. I've been taken care of by the two of you this time. I'm already very embarrassed.”

Li Changshou and Ling'e smiled at each other and bowed.

Ling'e said, “Take care, Grandmaster.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Grandmaster, get someone to send a letter back to us every now and then.”

“Alright, you guys go back…”

“Wait.”

Suddenly, a sudden yelling came from the gate of the sect.

The two old men guarding the sect immediately perked up. Before the figure that flew over from afar could approach, they had already activated the mountain-protecting array.

It was the elder of Pill Tripod Peak, Wan Linyun!

Li Changshou was naturally not surprised. He had already discovered the old man's whereabouts.

Ling'e leaned against her senior brother and hence, did not lack a sense of security.

However, at that moment, cold sweat had already formed on Jiang Lin'er's forehead.

She stared at the figure flying towards her from afar. She could not help but become nervous. Her aura was restrained, and her essence soul was like a taut bowstring. She could not help but swallow some saliva…

Elder Wan flew closer and sneered at Jiang Lin'er.

Jiang Lin'er felt like she had fallen into a cold cave. She could not help but shiver. She almost… ran away.

Fortunately, Li Changshou bowed and said, “Greetings, Elder.” “Yes.” Wan Linyun frowned and did not move forward.

Li Changshou sent a voice transmission to Jiang Lin'er. “I'll go ask for more pills for you. Stay here and don't move.”

Without needing Li Changshou to speak, Wan Linyun took out two treasure pouches and handed them to Li Changshou. “Give these to your Grandmaster for her to protect herself.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Thank you for your concern, Elder.”

Elder Wan Linyun added, “Refine pills tomorrow… You can come and give the pills to me after three months.”

“Yes, I'll visit you in three months.”

Elder Wan Linyun smiled at Li Changshou before returning to the sect. As soon as the old man left, Jiang Lin'er heaved a sigh of relief. She subconsciously broke out in cold sweat… “Elder Wan is really powerful.”

“Grandmaster.” Li Changshou brought the two treasures over. “Use these pills well. Please do not add karma to Elder Wan.”

“This is…”

Jiang Lin'er blinked and grabbed the treasure pouch to take a look at it. It was as if she had obtained a precious treasure.

The poisonous pills refined by Elder Wan!

Jiang Lin'er did not dare to procrastinate any further. Before she left, she looked at Li Changshou for a while. Then, she shook her head and nodded. She looked unfathomable.

She took the route of the East Ocean and rushed to the east of the East Ocean to search for the ends of the earth. In ancient times, the Primordial World was originally boundless. During the war between the three races, the dragon, phoenixes, and Qilin, the world collapsed, leaving only the five continents in the Primordial World.

The broken fragments scattered around the primeval world, transforming into the trichiliocosm.

Three meant void, and three thousand meant boundless.

During the middle and late stages of the Great Magi-Demon War, the Magi Kun Peng secretly provoked the two Ancestral Magisthe Water Magi with the hot temper, Gong Gong, and the Fire Magi, Zhu Rong, with the hot temper.

The two hot-tempered Magis knocked down Mount Buzhou. The collapse of the Heavenly Pillar caused the water of the Heavenly River to enter the human world. The world seemed to be about to return to chaos.

That resulted in Nuwa's mending of the heavens, the black turtle encountering a disaster in the North Continent, and the Saint severing the turtle's four limbs to prop up the present world. Then, the Dao Ancestors and the six Saints attacked and surrounded the Primordial World with supreme mystical abilities. They also protected the four heavenly pillars.

In order to maintain the connection between the five continents and the trichiliocosm, the Dao Ancestor left a door near the four Heavenly Pillars that allowed them to enter and leave the five continents. That was the origin of the borders of the world. Gradually, the Qi Refinement cultivators came and went around the world. There was countless beautiful scenery, and each of them became the residences for cultivators… Jiang Lin'er left from the Immortal Du Sect and secretly went missing for a day and night. She arrived at the ends of the earth in the East Ocean.

Looking into the distance, she saw a huge city with several immortal islands floating in the sky.

When Jiang Lin'er arrived at that place, the Golden Crow sank in the west. Golden rays of light shone on the surface of the sea, and the sky in the west was burning. The sky on the east side was already filled with stars…

A huge cloud pillar stood between Heaven and Earth. Its height and width were unknown.

Along the way, Jiang Lin'er was reminiscing about her trip back to the sect.

The two disciples of hers had suffered a calamity. Fortunately, her first disciple's soul had reincarnated. She still had hope of finding her traces. Although her second disciple had transformed into a Turbid Immortal, he still had a long lifespan. What Jiang Lin'er could not figure out the most was Li Changshou, the disciple of the Dao Requital realm.

She could clearly see through that disciple's cultivation level and accept that he had extraordinary talent in alchemy and array formations.

However, with Jiang Lin'er's ability in recognizing people after so many years of training outside, Jiang Lin'er felt that that disciple whom she could see through at a glance was like a bottomless abyss.

Every action of hers in the sect seemed to have been monitored by him.

In fact, he had even arranged everything that she wanted to do.

Furthermore… Jiang Lin'er's immortal senses swept across her 'gain' this time.

The numinous treasure given by that coquettish Exalted Wang Qing could increase one's combat power significantly.

The rewards given by the sect were negligible.

The elixirs that Li Changshou gave were extremely valuable.

Thanks to Li Changshou, Elder Wan Linyun had given her a poisonous pill that was even more precious than that numinous treasure…

What kind of grand-disciple is he?

Jiang Lin'er sighed softly in her heart. She could not help but moan twice and feel a headache.

However, she knew that that grand-disciple of hers was her second disciple's lucky star. In the future, she did not have to worry too much about him. It was only right for her to find her first disciple's reincarnation as soon as possible.

Jiang Lin'er circled around the city and rushed to the exit of the Heaven and Earth Array. On an immortal island, she passed by a stone tablet with the words 'the ends of the earth' written on it. She was about to transform into a beam of light and fly into the distance…

“Fellow Daoist, wait!” Jiang Lin'er's feet swayed and she immediately put on a cautious stance.

Three figures flew over from the sea. The auras of two dragon-headed elders were locked onto her, causing Jiang Lin'er's face to turn pale.

This pressure was actually from Golden Immortals!

The two dragon-headed elders moved to the side and made way. A handsome dragon youth stepped forward. It was Ao Yi.

Ao Yi sized up Jiang Lin'er and did not think much of her face. When he saw that Jiang Lin'er was dressed in armor and looked rigorous like his Brother Sect Master had said, his eyes lit up and he said, “Are you the Grandmaster of the Immortal Du Sect, Li Changshou?”

Jiang Lin'er was stunned and confused. However, she knew that she could not escape at that moment…

She asked in a low voice, “Yes, who are you?”

“Elders, please retract your pressure.” Ao Yi smiled and bowed. “I'm Ao Yi from the East Ocean Dragon Palace. Greetings, Senior.”

A dragon-headed elder pinched his fingers to calculate and quickly nodded at Ao Yi.

Jiang Lin'er frowned and said, “May I ask…”

Ao Yi smiled and said, “Senior, don't be nervous. I was just invited by Brother Changshou to send a letter to you.”

As he spoke, a dragon-headed elder raised his hand and pushed a jade slip into Jiang Lin'er's hand.

Ao Yi added, “There are still a few more gifts. Please accept them, Senior.”

The other dragon-headed elder took out a sigmoid-shaped storage Dharma treasure and gave it to Jiang Lin'er. Then, Ao Yi bowed and said, “I'm done. I'll bid you farewell. There's a token in that Ruyi Scepter. If you travel in the trichiliocosm and encounter any difficulties, you can use this token to find the location where the dragon race troops have been stationed. You can borrow three thousand troops.

Senior, you are Brother Changshou's Grandmaster, so you are my… elder. Please do not decline. You must accept it.”

After saying that, Ao Yi bowed and turned around. Then, he flew west with the two old dragons.

Jiang Lin'er immediately reacted…

She looked around and quickly left the immortal island, hiding in the starry sky outside the world.

After hiding for a while, Jiang Lin'er finally confirmed that she was not being targeted. Then, she refined the Ruyi Scepter and looked inside. The treasure light was a little blinding…

Jiang Lin'er's Dao heart trembled slightly as she cursed in her heart.

At the same time, she also saw the shiny gold token…

The Proud Dragon Token of the East Ocean Dragon Palace!

“What kind of disciple did Second Disciple take in…”

Jiang Lin'er felt a chill run down her spine. Her fingers trembled and she grabbed the jade slip to take a look at it. There were only a few words on it.

She looked around. The words 'disclosure' were written all over the slip, in between the lines. She felt a mix of emotions.

Ao Yi, who had sent Jiang Lin'er off, returned with a smile on his face.

Li Changshou had only asked him to deliver a few words, but Ao Yi had taken the initiative and added some items of his own.

Just like how the Heavenly Courts did not lack merit, his dragon palace did not lack treasures.

The little things that he had given to Li Changshou and his Grandmaster… were just a few years' worths of pocket money.

Ao Yi was relishing when he suddenly felt something in his heart. It seemed that his statue was being summoned.

“Elders…”

Then, Ao Yi asked the elder to help him continue flying. His mind shifted to the statue of the God in a small temple. At that moment, Li Changshou sent a wisp of his spiritual will over and said in his heart, “Look at that woman at the entrance of the temple.”

Ao Yi was stunned. He used the statue to “look” at it.
