My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 228

Chapter 228 The Life of Being Watched

In the autumn night, the sound of insects was accompanied by the moonlight and the snow. Late at night, in the corridor in the backyard of the Sea God Temple, Li Changshou used the identity of the old Daoist that his paper effigy was disguised as and looked up at the fairy beside him, who looked like she had walked out of his painting. He felt relieved.

I should be glad.

When I tried to convince the Goddess of Golden Light and the others, I only rephrased my words and did not distort the truth.

Otherwise, it would be hard to explain himself in front of the fairy.

That made Li Changshou realize how important it was to stick to the principles he had set previously.

Men should persevere.

Who is this fairy?

Since she can look for me at this moment because of Zhao Gongming, and even cause my heart to stir a little… she probably isn't anyone else other than Goddess Yun Xiao, who had frightened Master Zhao.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fairy, why are you visiting so late at night?”

“I've come over from Big Brother's place,” Yun Xiao said softly, but she stopped halfway. She placed her pair of soft hands behind her back. The long dress on her was made of cloud-like silk, giving it a light and soft texture. Every time she walked, there seemed to be two faint white clouds following her. Although she walked in the mortal world, she was not tainted by it at all. However, Li Changshou did not have the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery in front of him. His thoughts raced and he analyzed it carefully.

Did this fairy… come to question me?

That shouldn't be the case. At most, Master Zhao would only say that he had stopped the experts from the Western Sect. It is unlikely that he would tell Yun Xiao how he had stopped them.

Li Changshou immediately had a solution. He smiled and said, “Senior Gongming, are you alright?” He heard Yun Xiao say softly, “Brother is fine. I've heard it from him. Fellow Daoist, when you tried to persuade Senior Brother Huang Long to help the dragon race, Big Brother felt that it was time for him to help. Hence, you helped him and caused karma for no reason. Fellow Daoist, I'm here to ask if you were doing it on purpose or not.” Li Changshou said seriously, “No. This is really just a coincidence. There was a reason for that incident that day. Perfected Huang Long was schemed by someone. Senior Gongming saved him and asked Perfected Huang Long to call me over…” Li Changshou then explained the fraud situation in the South Ocean.

The best way to deal with experts like Yun Xiao and the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was to not have any tricks up his sleeves. He would stick to the strategy of 'using sincerity to exchange for opportunities' and put himself in the right position.

When Yun Xiao heard that, he let out a soft sigh and said worriedly, “Brother has now lost the cautiousness that he had during ancient times. The four of us have cultivated since ancient times. The higher our cultivation levels, the stronger our abilities, and the more enemies we have in the world. There are Saints in the Primordial World. The more one walks towards this realm, the more they would know that this is an insurmountable mountain. If such an existence wants to kill us, it will still be easy. Brother seems to have forgotten about that.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless. If you can always remember these principles in the future and avoid trouble, your ending will definitely not be that miserable.

Li Changshou said, “Fairy, Senior Gongming's cultivation level is high and his numinous treasure is powerful. He is like the sun in the sky. There's no need to worry too much.”

Yunxiao chuckled and said gently, “Fellow Daoist, since you can come up with brilliant methods for the matters between the Jie School and the Western Sect, save the dragon race, and respond to the Heavenly Courts, you can naturally see through these. Why are you trying to coax me?”

“Uh… There are some things that you can say but I can't, Fairy.”

“Fellow Daoist, I've embarrassed myself. I heard your advice to Junior Sister Jinguang (Goddess of Golden Light) just now. I feel a little emotional.” Yun Xiao turned her head to look at the old immortal beside her and asked gently, “Fellow Daoist, you are clearly just a young man with an intermediate Dao Heart. Why are you pretending to be old?”

Li Changshou smiled bitterly. Fairy Yun Xiao was really… a clever person. She had almost seen through him! “This appearance is only for convenience.” Li Changshou sighed. “A young man would be too outstanding. A middle-aged man would be slightly gloomy. Only a kind-looking old man can make others trust him.”

Yun Xiao praised, “Fellow Daoist, your thinking is really thorough and reliable.”

“I'm just not strong enough. I can only protect myself this way.”

Li Changshou chuckled and looked at Fairy Yun Xiao's side profile.

Could it be… that this Yun Xiao is here to have a heart-to-heart talk with me today?

However, he heard Yun Xiao say, “Fellow Daoist, you should be able to see that there are many hidden dangers in Jie School. The Qi Refinement cultivators in the sect are of varying quality. Some of them may not be unethical, but they are foolish and tend to be made use of by others. Junior Sister Jinguang went to look for you today. I have seen all of your responses. You are truly flawless.”

Yun Xiao paused. He looked at Li Changshou and said, “I don't mean to eavesdrop. I just didn't want to appear and meet them, lest I cause trouble for nothing.”

“I understand.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “I understand that the Goddess of Golden Light is worried about Senior Gongming.”

“Sigh, I'm really worried about Big Brother.” Yun Xiao stared at the crescent in the sky and said in an ethereal voice, “My two sisters were also fooling around. Big Brother doesn't take anyone seriously. Recently, I have been feeling uneasy during my cultivation. I'm afraid that something bad has happened to my elder brother. I can ground my two sisters on the Three-Immortal Island, but Big Brother is still my brother… Right now, he is full of praise for you and admires you. He is avoiding me. Fellow Daoist, your words might be more effective than my persuasion. Fellow Daoist, can you give me an idea?”

“This…”

Li Changshou pondered for a while. He naturally had an idea and had many solutions. His general idea was to beat Master Zhao up and mess with him.

However, there was too much karma involved. It would be inappropriate for him to do that. It would be best if he stayed out of it. “I still have to wait for Senior Gongming to suffer and get into trouble. Forcefully interfering is useless.” Li Changshou thought for a while and said, “If you were in his shoes, Fairy, how would you feel if your two sisters were to lecture you now?” Yun Xiao said gently, “If what they say makes sense, I will naturally listen.”

“However, Senior Gongming… is very prideful,” Li Changshou said. “I'm a junior, and I don't dare to say much. Fairy, you can find a solution for this.”

“Ah…”

Yun Xiao slowly sighed and stood at the side of the corridor. She frowned and kept thinking. She was also worried for her foster brother. Li Changshou suddenly felt the same way. He wanted to say a few more words of advice, but he kept his mouth shut.

Firstly, he did not have a suitable position, and secondly, he would be involved with unnecessary karma.

Seeing that Yunxiao seemed a little depressed, Li Changshou found another topic and began to talk about the painting. Yun Xiao could not get any solution to persuade her big brother from Li Changshou. She could only put that matter in his heart and chat with Li Changshou.

Li Changshou did not expect that he would take an idle stroll for two hours…

When Yunxiao bade him farewell and left, Li Changshou first heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he felt slightly helpless. The most valuable thing is the importance of friendship The danger also lies in friendship. “Tsk, it's hard.” Li Changshou flicked his horsetail whisk and used the Earth Escape Technique. His body disappeared in the backyard of the Sea God Temple. A moment later, in the Pill Chamber on Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou opened his eyes and used his Manifestation Technique to leave that place. His main body came out to take a breather. In the royal chess room, the illumination Dharma treasure emitted a gentle light. Li Changshou had originally wanted to name the pavilion as the 'Four Three Music House'. He wanted Jiu Jiu to be an ambassador and together, it would be… Four Three Jiu Jiu Little Qiong Peak Chess Room. Just kidding, just kidding. Li Changshou passed by the chess room and heard laughter inside. He did not go in to disturb them. After all, in the dead of the night, if a man like him were to get close to three drunk girls… ahem, two beautiful women, and a ferocious female immortal, it would be easy for some wonderful but unnecessary things to happen. He walked to the back mountain and looked at the spirit trees that he had planted. Then, he looked at the Immortal Beans cultivation base that was enveloped by the array formation. By the time he finished the round, the sky had already turned dark. The Golden Crow had risen to the east. There was an additional restlessness in the world, which reduced some coolness. He had decided. In the future, if he had the ability to help Master Zhao avoid death without causing any negative effects on himself…

As long as nothing happened to Master Zhao, Fairy Yun Xiao would not be involved in the Great God-Conferment Tribulation.

However, that matter was still very far away.

Li Changshou still did not know when the Great God-Conferment Tribulation would begin. In any case, he would be able to reach peace early in a few decades. He would never get involved in that mess again. Thinking about it carefully, this matter is quite troublesome.

Suddenly, Li Changshou's immortal senses captured a patrolling disciple flying towards Little Qiong Peak on a crane…

There seemed to be a man and a woman outside the Immortal Du Sect…

Are they here to look for Little Grandmaster?

Li Changshou was just about to stop the disciple in front of him, in case the Grandmaster and the Exalted Wang Qing felt awkward. However, he had yet to fly on the cloud and his immortal senses had already captured it. The barrier of the straw hut by the lake had opened!

He heard an arrogant laughter from inside… “Hahaha! In the future, I, Unfettered Lin Jiang, will become yours! Don't worry, I will be responsible for you!”

Then, he heard Exalted Wang Qing smile and said, “Yes, everything will go according to your instructions, Milady.” Milady, Milady… Li Changshou pursed his lips. He felt that they were quite sweet. He continued to stroll around the mountain and did not bother about this matter.

Not long after, the disciple landed in front of the straw hut. He reported that there were two people outside the door who claimed to be Aunt-Master Jiang Lin'er's good friends.

Jiang Lin'er replied in a panic in the room. However, the person who walked out was… Exalted Wang Qing.

The disciple tilted his head and hurriedly bowed his head. His eyes shone with a sharp light. Eight Trigrams Great Dao! Exalted Wang Qing who was clad in a long robe said, “It's not convenient for her to come out and bring me there.”

“Hey, hey, Uncle-Master, please go first. I'm flying slower.”

“Okay.”

Li Changshou secretly observed Exalted Wang Qing and his eyes lit up. The spring breeze cleared the pond in one night, and the perfected Great Dao will of Exalted Wang Qing increased! Could it be that the Yin-Yang harmony had such an effect?

Li Changshou muttered to himself for a while before he understood that it was because he had let go of the trouble in his heart. His Dao heart was perfect and spotless. Li Changshou naturally did not believe that dual cultivation would benefit the Golden Immortal Tribulation.

There was no immortal theory supporting it.

At the same time, in a Small World not far from the five continents of the trichiliocosm.

The Major Chiliocosm and the Minor Chiliocosm were formed from the Primordial World's fragments after the dragons and phoenixes shattered the ancient times.

The so-called Major Chiliocosm referred to the balance of Yin and Yang and the five elements. Even mortals could live peacefully. There was abundant spiritual energy and Primordial Energy, which were vast.

Most of the Minor Chiliocosms would have strange scenery because of the incomplete Five Elements and the difficulty of the Great Dao.

At that moment, in a small world with only an ocean, the ten-thousand-feet waves on the water surface gradually calmed down. At the bottom of the lake, a huge battle had just ended.

A three-headed flood dragon that was not fully covered in black scales crawled in the mud at the bottom of the great lake. It was firmly bound by chains formed by golden light. Three figures parted the water around the flood dragon and floated over slowly.

If Li Changshou could see that place, he would definitely discover that those three people… had crossed paths with him before.

One of them was the hunchbacked old Daoist, the third disciple of the Western Sect's Saint.

The Dao runes on the hunchbacked old Daoist's body surged and struggled to calm down. Clearly, he had used quite a bit of strength to seal the powerful three-headed dragon… On the left side of the hunchbacked old Daoist was Daoist Wen Jing, who was dressed in a blood-colored veil.

There was a young Daoist with six short golden blades hovering around him beside the hunchbacked old Daoist priest… It was the Golden Cicada.

The three-headed flood dragon's eyes were filled with anger and despair hidden in his fury. “The Western Sect! Why don't you kill me!?!” However, the three figures did not even look at him. The hunchbacked old Daoist priest said slowly, “This black-scaled flood dragon is a general of the West Ocean Dragon Palace's Immortal Flood Dragon troops. It is very prestigious among the Immortal Flood Dragon troops. After that, he was banished by the Dragon Palace for some trivial matters. You can subdue him and use him to turn against the Immortal Flood Dragon troops and severely injure the West Ocean Dragon Palace.” Daoist Wen Jing nodded calmly.

The Golden Cicada, which was at the side, cupped his fists and smiled. “Deputy Sect Master, you have great foresight. You are not someone that I can reach.”

“Yes.” The hunchbacked old Daoist said calmly, “Take action and subdue his essence soul.”

Daoist Wen Jing naturally walked forward. A sanguine light was brewing on her fingertips. Naturally, she had to use the Blood Mosquito technique. That was her specialty.

However, the hunchbacked old Daoist said, “Wen Jing, you have controlled too many experts. Let Jin Chan handle the flood dragon.”

Daoist Wen Jing frowned slightly but did not say anything. Jin Chan lowered his head and looked at Daoist Wen Jing with a faint smile. When Jin Chan arrived in front of the flood dragon, the hunchbacked old Daoist looked at Daoist Wen Jing. He took out a thumb-sized blood cocoon and said calmly, “I have more important things for you to do. This item is called the Soul-Conquering Butterfly. It can be used to transform the power of an essence soul into the main body of the incarnation. In three years, find the Sea God's main body in the South Ocean and deal with him secretly. Don't expose yourself.”

The corners of Daoist Wen Jing's mouth curled into a charming smile. She grabbed the blood cocoon and bowed.

“I will not disappoint you, Deputy Sect Master.”
