My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 370

Chapter 370 Disciple of Ren School, Present For Assistance

As long as it involved an entire race in the Primordial World, it would definitely involve the three trivial matters of destiny, negative karma, and merit. The ancient battle between the phoenix race and the dragon race should be the first tribulation after the opening of the sky. At that time, the world had just been established. Connate lifeforms occupied the mainstream. The dragons and phoenixes were the overlords of the two races. Basically, no one had the concept of lifespan. Many living beings who did not have any potential would slowly live forever.

There were truly many Zenith Heavens and Golden Immortals.

However, 90% of those powerful living beings had died in the battle between the dragons and phoenixes. The Primordial World had also been shattered. The structure of the five continents and the trichiliocosm had been formed since then.

If the Dao Ancestor had not turned the tide and killed the Fiend Ancestor, who was causing trouble behind the scenes, and the Heaven and Earth had not sped up the perfection of the Heavenly Dao and suppressed the final climax of the Great Tribulation in time, the Heaven and Earth would have returned to Chaos…

The battle was not just a competition between the dragon, phoenix, and Qilin races. The dragon race was known as the King of Scaly Armor, the phoenix race was known as the King of Flying Feathers, and the Qilin race was known as the King of Beasts. At that time, the great calamity began with the dragons and phoenixes. It engulfed almost the entire Primordial World. The negative karma that the dragon and phoenix clans carried was almost boundless. The final outcome of the battle between the dragons and phoenixes was clearly the dragon race's victory. The phoenix race and the Qilin, which did not deserve the name of the Great Tribulation, had almost withered.

The dragon race guarded the four seas and Sea Eyes. They were plagued by negative karma and had been weak since ancient times. Even though they had been ordered and put in peace by the Heavenly Courts, there was still the tragedy of the East Ocean's eye being destroyed. The third largest clan in the ancient times, the Qilin, had become rare auspicious beasts in the Primordial World. They were almost extinct at the end of the ancient times… The Phoenix Clan was in a worser state. They were originally part of the Feather King Clan. Now, only one or two clansmen were active. Only Kong Xuan and the Golden Roc were active.

Most of the other flying beasts that were known to have the bloodline of the phoenix race were just the “underlings” that followed behind the phoenix race in the past. The true bloodline of the phoenix race contained the mystical ability of nirvana and was rarely revealed after the ancient times. The dragon race was different. The dragons had always been quite hardworking at reproducing. From ancient times until today, they had a large number of “close relatives” in the world…

The problem that the phoenix race was facing now was their luck and bloodline. The negative karma of the phoenix race was borne by the Primordial Phoenix. The Primordial Phoenix relied on its nirvana mystical ability to suppress the Undying Flames Mountain. It hoped that the phoenix race would be able to continue their bloodline. Then, it placed the heavy responsibility of the continuation of the phoenix race on… Kong Xuan. When Li Changshou heard that, he could not help but want to complain. He felt that the bird that Lord Primordial Phoenix entrusted to was a little…

Up to now, Kong Xuan had yet to decide his gender! The problem with the phoenix race was very clearhow to let the phoenix race obtain the continuation of their bloodline, restore a bit of their luck, and gain a foothold in the Primordial World again.

Kong Xuan said, “Our race has been burdened by the Primordial World and suffered heavy negative karma. Now, we only hope that our bloodline can be continued. We're not asking for another chance at prosperity, dozens of clansmen would be enough. I don't want all my clansmen to live forever. I just want my bloodline to continue and allow the phoenixes to exist in the world. That's enough to comfort Mother.” Li Changshou pondered for a while. Zhao Gongming folded his arms and tried his best to think. On the other hand, Qiong Xiao pointed at the young girl from the phoenix clan who was serving tea and water. She asked in confusion, “Then, how did she get here?”

Kong Xuan said, “Mother once gave me three drops of blood essence. It can be given to the birds with similar bloodlines and turn them into the phoenix race.” “Oh ~” Qiong Xiao looked enlightened. Zhao Gongming, who was at the side, said, “The term 'luck' is mysterious and ethereal. Normally speaking, if you do good deeds and accumulate merit, you can always make 'luck'… right?” “If it's that simple, I wouldn't be so vexed.” Kong Xuan frowned and shook his head. “Merit and destiny are not related.” “I have a solution,” Li Changshou said slowly. He picked up the tea beside him and raised his hand to take a sip.

Since the Saint wanted him to attack, he naturally could not stand by and do nothing.

Although he did not know if the Grand Pure One wanted Kong Xuan to get closer to Ren School or if he had a bigger plan… Actually, Li Changshou had already thought of something that had a 90% chance of being true. The Mystic Bird gives rise to the Shang Dynasty. According to Li Changshou's knowledge, the Shang Nation's totem was the Mystic Bird.

In ancient times, the dragon race had once become the totem of the human race because they had helped the human race. From then on, they had reversed their destiny and continued their life. If he was involved in the story of the Shang Dynasty being born, that matter would indeed be enough to attract the attention of the Saint.

At the same time, he could explain why Kong Xuan would protect the Shang Nation during the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. It was just related to benefits. Li Changshou put down the tea in his hand and had an idea. He smiled and said, “In ancient times, the dragon race used that method. Why didn't the phoenix race use it?”

Kong Xuan was not an ordinary person. Since Li Changshou had said that, Kong Xuan knew what was going on. Kong Xuan sighed and said, “Now that the human race has prospered, we no longer have the opportunity to protect the human race. I'm just saying.” “That's not the case,” Li Changshou said calmly. He was also vigilant. He constantly sensed if a Heavenly Punishment would descend and if the Saint would stop his train of thought.

However, he quickly confirmed that Kong Xuan's matter was related to the rise of the Shang Nation. Li Changshou said, “The destiny of the human race is concentrated in the South Continent. In the South Continent, there are many countries and wars everywhere. As the saying goes, they will be separated after a long period of time. The human race has had no master for a long time. They should have a common master for prosperity. The opportunity for the phoenix race is right here. If I knew where the heavens were going to send me, I would have protected my future master in advance and made him use the divine bird of the phoenix race as his totem. Why would the phoenix race worry about not being established?” Despite being a mighty figure, Kong Xuan looked happy. He stood up and cupped his fists at Li Changshou. “Fellow Daoist, if you can help us with this matter, the phoenix race will owe you karma. Kong Xuan will also owe you a favor!” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, you don't have to do that. If my senior brother is here, how could he not help you? Senior Brother's matter is my matter. The entire Ren School is united. We will definitely help you with this matter, Fellow Daoist. However, there are two things that I need you to understand.” “Please speak.” Li Changshou's expression was serious. “Firstly, it's normal for dynasties to change in the mortal world. If the phoenix race gets what they want, please do not interfere when the dynasty falls.”

He said that purely to plot against the Western Sect. Kong Xuan had entered the venue by beating up Randeng and injuring a few immortals of Chan School. In the end, Saint Zhun Ti jumped out and fought the Five-colored Divine Light with the Wonderful Seven Treasures Tree. Although that battle had made Kong Xuan famous, Kong Xuan's outcome was rather tragic. After being defeated by Zhun Ti, he was forcefully sent to the Western Sect.

After he transformed into a Buddha, Kong Xuan was arranged to be the Buddha's calamity. He swallowed the Buddha into his stomach, and the Buddha broke out of his back and became the Buddha's mother. He lost his perfected Connate body…

Li Changshou only knew that it was a huge scheme at the end of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. He did not know about the complicated implications and the final winner.

However, what happened to Kong Xuan was very inhumane. There was no romantic vibe from the Primordial World.

The best script should be…

Kong Xuan took the initiative to give up his perfected Connate body for the Great Daoist Master and returned to the Yin. He transformed into a woman and dressed himself in a rainbow dress, applied some blush, and put on a phoenix crown. He walked to the backyard of the Tushita Palace with his head held high and chest puffed out. He pointed at the Great Daoist Master who was sleeping in and said, “Xuan Du! I want to marry you!” Then, a mosquito lying on the tree beside him suddenly bursts into tears because she clearly flew over first…

Ahem, let's get down to business.

Li Changshou continued, “Secondly, I don't dare to say that I'm 100% confident in this matter. I have to report this to the Jade Emperor when I return. To be honest, the Heavenly Courts has a series of plans regarding the human race. If you give the totem's destiny to the Phoenix Clan, it will not be a big deal to the Heavenly Courts. However, I need you to express some goodwill to the Heavenly Courts. If you encounter any Heavenly Soldiers or Heavenly Generals in danger when you travel outside in the future, please save them.” “Alright! Of course!” Kong Xuan agreed decisively. “Let's discuss the general direction today,” Li Changshou said. “When the situation in the South Continent changes, I will invite you to come out of seclusion.” Kong Xuan hurriedly said that he was not in a hurry. However, Li Changshou used the excuse that he would definitely blame him if he knew that he had neglected the task. He forced the topic to switch back to the main topic.

Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao looked at each other.

Zhao Gongming sent a voice transmission and sighed. “Third Sister, do you think Changgeng had this plan all along? Why does it sound so logical? In just a while, he has already made arrangements for the phoenix race.”

“It doesn't sound like it.”

Qiong Xiao mumbled, “If he is really confident, he would have explained everything in one go. He was thinking as he spoke. He left some room for discussion in many of the things he said. He also paused several times in between words. That was because he had not thought of it. However, to be able to consider the Western Sect, the Heavenly Courts, the human race, and even set a trap for this matter in such a short period of time, he is indeed impressive.” Zhao Gongming sighed. “Sigh, I feel that I've lived so many years in vain…” “That's different. Big Brother, you're not good at thinking about these twists and turns. You're the wind. You won't turn around unless you hit a wall.” Qiong Xiao said calmly, “Brother, what if his cultivation level surpasses yours in the future? You'll be the one in trouble.”

“You're still talking about me. At that time, won't you be outdone too?” “What is there to be afraid of? As his sister-in-law, I should be taken care of. Hmph!”

Zhao Gongming chuckled when he heard that. He felt comfortable.

There was no pressure when he interacted with his brother-in-law and sister.

They stayed on Peacock Island for half a day. Before they left, Kong Xuan sent Li Changshou and the other two out.

Kong Xuan handed a jade token to Li Changshou. It was used for sending messages. He said that he could repay the favor at any time. In other words, he had given Li Changshou a chance to ask him to help. That was Kong Xuan's personality. Even if he returned the favor, he would still ask Li Changshou to invite him.

He indeed had the right to be arrogant. After all, not every expert below the Saint could force Saint Zhun Ti into such a sorry state. On the way back, Li Changshou closed his eyes and pondered.

If he was already “used” by the Heavenly Dao and involved in the business of the Mystic Bird, a series of signs would appear in the Heavenly Courts and the South Continent…

If the Shang Nation was successfully established, it would not be long before the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. At the same time, Li Changshou had long noticed that the time scale of the South Continent was completely different from what he knew.

From the moment Emperor Da Yu returned to the Fire Cloud Cave, it happened to be the end of summer. The entire chaotic world had lasted for at least ten thousand years…

That also raised an interesting question. What is the connection between the Primordial World and the future? Li Changshou was not interested in investigating that. After all, he had yet to resolve the most important requirement—the ability to protect himself.

At the same time, how much merit could he gain if he could make the South Continent return from chaos? If the merit from the reform of the Netherworld and sending them to the Heavenly Courts, as well as the merit from ending the chaos in the South Continent were not enough for him to successfully cultivate the Golden Deity Body… Li Changshou had a premonition that he would be stuck at an awkward juncture.

However, it did not matter. He would first do the important things. He would see how much he lacked. If he lacked too much, he would slowly wait for the merit from incense offerings and the Heavenly Courts' salary.

If he did not lack much, he would go and kill some negative karma demons to fill the gaps. Exterminating demons and protecting the Dao is for humans and Heaven!

“Ah!”

Zhao Gongming suddenly sighed and shouted, “I've decided!”

Li Changshou and Qiong Xiao were shocked. Zhao Gongming patted his chest and shouted, “I'll go and find Jinguang now. Since Junior Sister Jinguang has fallen in love with me and I can't bear to reject her, I shall be her Dao companion! If she doesn't change her mind after a hundred years or a thousand years and I also develop feelings for her, we can be a couple!” “Wow.” Qiong Xiao jumped over and grabbed Zhao Gongming's arm. She shook it. “Brother, why did you suddenly become enlightened!?!” Li Changshou smiled warmly. Zhao Gongming smiled awkwardly and raised his chin at Li Changshou. “When I was at Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan's place just now, I saw Changshou putting in so much effort to speak up for Senior Brother Xuan Du. I felt rather emotional. This matter cannot be dragged on any longer. Everyone's Dao hearts are unstable, and the sect cannot be peaceful. Brother, are you alright?”

“Brother's matter is naturally an important one.”

“Let's go!” Zhao Gongming waved his hand. “We'll go to Golden Ao Island now!” “Brother, don't be anxious.” Qiong Xiao immediately said, “This matter is not something you can decide with just a word. Take your time with this fellow. I'll go ahead and help you find out what Junior Sister Golden Light is saying!” “Alright…” Zhao Gongming's aura immediately withered. Qiong Xiao immediately took out the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors and flew towards Golden Ao Island with the flood dragons.

Li Changshou wanted to say something but hesitated. Then, he shook his head and followed Zhao Gongming. He kept answering Master Zhao's questions that were less manly.

“Changgeng, do you think I should change my armor?”

“Changgeng, should I shave my beard?” “Changgeng, what should I talk about when I'm alone with Sister Jinguang?” Li Changshou silently took out a scroll and smiled. “I've prepared it for you long ago!” Zhao Gongming was overjoyed. He opened the scroll and read it as if he had obtained a treasure. Soon, he was confident and felt that he could succeed. The two of them waited for two hours before Qiong Xiao sent a voice transmission. Then, Zhao Gongming brought Li Changshou to Golden Ao Island. They met at a beautiful treasure pool.

It happened to be the place where Ao Yi cultivated.

Li Changshou did not approach that place. When Zhao Gongming went to the island, he turned around and wanted to leave.

However, just as he flew less than 30 to 50 feet, before he could circulate his immortal power, a small vortex appeared in the cloud in front of him. A slightly plump palm stretched out and curled its finger at Li Changshou… Li Changshou smiled as well. Just as he approached, someone grabbed his collar and pulled him into a familiar hole.

“Duo…”

“Shh!”

A group of people in front turned their heads and gestured for them to keep quiet. Duobao, who was beside them, chuckled and pulled Li Changshou's arm to the other pit. The pit and audience were familiar, but the scenes and the main characters were different. Outside the cave, Zhao Gongming was squatting beside the pool. He raised his hand and searched his face. His beard slowly floated down.

Not far away, the Goddess of Golden Light, who was dressed in a light red dress, was waiting quietly with her hands behind her back. Her face was red, and her heart was pounding. Near the Treasure Pool, there were many holes made by Daoist Duobao's unique mystical abilities. Those holes were filled with enthusiastic immortals from the few islands of Jie School… It could be said that Jie School was very united! That was a huge factor. Li Changshou was brought to the best spot to watch the show. He was treated equally with Qiong Xiao, the Goddess of Golden Spirit, and the other disciples of the Saint.

However, Li Changshou felt a little worried after watching for a while… If Yun Xiao received the letter and rushed over, wouldn't she think of the magnificent scene in the peach blossom forest… Li Changshou's Dao heart trembled. He immediately wanted to ignite the paper effigy and escape in time. However, just as that thought surfaced in his mind, before the True Samadhi Flames could be ignited, he snorted and paced back and forth in the cave… Many Jie School immortals subconsciously felt their legs go weak.
