Chapter 388 Give Me… Some Face!

As soon as Randeng appeared, their equipment was already in place. Not only did they give him life-saving equipment, but they also gave him the Cosmic Ruler…

What does the Saint want me to do? Should I break the enemy’s plot and warn this old Daoist priest to behave?

I should be beating up Randeng today. Otherwise, the Saint would not have given me the Cosmic Ruler.

However, he could not take the opportunity to wipe out Randeng. Otherwise, the Saint should have sent the painting over. Without the Taiji Painting, Li Changshou believed that he was not a match for Randeng Li Changshou was calm and composed.

He rode a cloud and arrived above the immortals of the Immortal Du Sect. His eyelids were half-open, and his white hair was moving slightly. The aura of Heaven and Earth slowly descended around him. He kept the Cosmic Ruler in his sleeve. The spiritual will in his heart jumped. He subconsciously shouted, “Little Disciple, what should we do this time? Should we just kill Randeng?

I’ve long disliked that lousy coffin and lamp. Master has agreed to it today. We have to destroy it!”

“Pagoda Master, don’t be anxious. There will be another expert coming to help later,” Li Changshou replied with a smile in his heart. “After all, Randeng is the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School. It’s not safe for us to attack directly. Let’s see if we can force him to attack us and then fight back.” The Pagoda Master was puzzled.

“Who else is coming? My eldest disciple is lying under the tree and watching the show. He doesn’t have any intention of coming over to play. However, Little Disciple, don’t underestimate Randeng. In ancient times, this fellow was very cunning. He did have some hidden intentions. The old master is also watching. Don’t fail him.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless. The Grand Pure One was watching the show!

Another spiritual will was transmitted. However, the Cosmic Ruler also spoke. He said in Li Changshou’s head, “I know that Randeng is wrong and prideful!”

Li Changshou thanked him and became more vigilant…

At this moment,his vigilance against Randeng had exceeded 100%.

How many times had he fought with Randeng? Not only did he fight from afar, but he was also able to advance and retreat freely during his first clash with Randeng. That showed how thick-skinned he was.

There was no need to guess today. Since Randeng had chosen to go head-on with him, he must have played some tricks and ambushed something…

However, Li Changshou was not in a hurry. He did not even bother to snatch the right of speech from Randeng.

As expected, just as Burning Lamp arrived above the immortals of the Dao Immortal Sect, there was a hint of dissatisfaction on his seemingly solemn but actually thin and withered face. “However, the Immortal Sects of the Three Schools would not harm the harmony of the Three Schools in this mortal battle. Why did the Water God appear personally?”

1111

The entire night sky suddenly became extremely quiet. The immortals from both sides did not dare to move or make a sound. Their immortal senses and gazes were all focused on the expert from Ren School who was holding the small pagoda, also known as the Heavenly Courts’ Water God.

Why… is there no sound? Li Changshou stood still quietly. His eyes were half-closed, as if his mind was not there. On the ground, Youqin Xuanya, who had been meditating with her eyes closed, opened her eyes curiously. However, she looked at Li Changshou, who was standing with his hands behind his back. She recalled her senior brother’s instructions and continued to close her eyes to recuperate.

The night sky was filled with awkwardness.

Daoist Randeng did not react at all.

“Since the Water God did not say anything, it means that he has acknowledged this matter. Your Ren School has bullied my Chan School. What should we say about this?”

1111

The immortals from both sides waited for a while. The Water God remained standing there silently.

If not for the fact that the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda in the Water God’s hand was spinning slowly, the immortals would have thought that it was a still scene…

What happened? On the other hand, Burning Lamp frowned deeply. His eyes flickered, as if he had thought of many things and made many calculations in that short period of time. “Water God.” There was a hint of anger in Randeng’s voice. “Could it be that you think that I, the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School, am not worthy of talking to you and want to invite the Sect Master of Chan School to come personally?”

Li Changshou did not answer any of the three questions. No matter how patient Randeng was, he had to show his anger. However, Li Changshou stood there quietly, as if he had fallen asleep.

This…

The immortals from the Dao Immortal Sect and the Immortal Du Sect were confused. They did not know what the Heavenly Courts’ Water God was up to.

However, the strange thing was that the immortals suddenly felt awkward when they could not get a response from Randeng after three consecutive questions…

Dao Weizi, who was cultivating in the Jade Void Palace, immediately stood up when he saw an opportunity. He flicked his horsetail whisk and bowed to the “Water God”.

“Senior Brother Water God, Teacher Randeng asked you a question. Why didn’t you answer?” Li Changshou slowly lifted his eyelids. His eyes flickered, as if he had just woken up from a dream. “Oh? Deputy Sect Master Randeng has arrived? He’s actually flying so fast!” Li Changshou smiled and cupped his hands. “Sorry, sorry. It’s my fault. It’s my fault. I initially set up restrictions for the incarnation. When I saw someone performing a Dao salute, my attention immediately returned. However, he had forgotten that the Deputy Sect Master Randeng claimed to be of the same generation as the Saint. He would not greet others normally. It’s indeed my fault. I was too engrossed in watching a silly roe deer rolling in the snow using the other incarnations that I failed to notice the arrival of Deputy Sect Master Randeng. What did Deputy Sect Master Randeng just say? Can you say it again?”

Under the night sky, it was even quieter than before.

At that moment, the immortals of the Dao Immortal Sect were shocked and angry. They were all from Chan School. They were naturally indignant that their Deputy Sect Master had been ridiculed. The immortals from the Immortal Du Sect felt that the Heavenly Courts’ Water God was rather powerful. He did not take the ancient mighty figure, Randeng, seriously at all. Could this be the confidence of Ren School?

On the other hand, the Sect Leader of the Immortal Du Sect, Ji Wuyou, had a thoughtful look in his eyes. He carefully understood the deeper meaning behind the words of the Water God. It was impossible for such experts to only have superficial meanings in a confrontation. The Water God seems to be beating around the bush and scolding Randeng for being rude, but in fact, on a deeper level… Yes, he might be scolding Randeng for being a silly roe deer! Why?

Ji Wuyou maintained his composure on the surface. In his heart, he was similar to the small group of Qi Refinement cultivators there. They were all puzzled. Randeng’s expression was extremely gloomy. This time, he was really angry. “Water God, why do you have to degrade yourself like that? Aren’t you afraid of being mocked by others?” “What do you mean?” Li Changshou frowned slightly. Unknowingly, he grasped the control of the conversation and shouted, “Deputy Sect Master Randeng, please pay attention to your words! I know that you hate the Three Sects. Ahem, you are very protective of them. When you saw the tense situation here, you must have been a little anxious so you spoke without thinking. However, I’m now a third-order legitimate god of the Heavenly Courts. I’m in charge of the water affairs of the Three Realms. I won’t be degraded. Deputy Sect Master Randeng said that I’m being unreasonable and that I’m being mocked. Doesn’t that mean that the water affairs of the Three Realms are all nonsense and that the mighty Heavenly Courts are being mocked? Could it be that you are dissatisfied with the Heavenly Dao and cannot tolerate the Heavenly Courts so you secretly mocked the Dao Ancestor who wanted to establish the Heavenly Courts? This is a huge sin!” The corners of Ji Wuyou’s mouth twitched violently when he heard that.

What does it mean to be aboveboard?

This was the real deal!

Randeng was accused of insulting the Dao Ancestor after a casual remark!

Randeng did not dare to wait any longer. He immediately cursed, “The Water God is really getting better and better at sophistry.

I respect the few Sect Masters very much, and I respect the Dao Ancestor even more!”

“Really?” Li Changshou smiled and said leisurely, “Why do I not believe it? If I were to respect the Dao Ancestor so much, would Deputy Sect Master Randeng have chosen not to go to the Purple Cloud Palace during the three Dao preachings?

Tsk tsk, the Deputy Sect Master’s words and actions are different. I can’t help but suspect that you are scheming about how to make the three sects split up and the Dao Sect weaken!”

“Don’t slander me! The Water God has been continuously targeting me, the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School. You have also been tainting my reputation. What do you want? What do you want!?!”

A cold glint flickered in Randeng’s eyes. He had really been poked in the wound. “I’m slandering you?” A blank scroll appeared in Li Changshou’s hand. The scroll flickered with golden light and emitted a faint Heavenly Dao pressure. Li Changshou raised it high and said loudly, “Deputy Sect Master Randeng, you secretly instructed Dao Weizi to set up a trap around the Honglin Kingdom more than twenty years ago and plot against the Immortal Du Sect today. I have already gotten the heavenly secrets from the Heavenly Dao! Do you dare to swear to the Heavenly Dao in front of everyone and let the Saints bear witness to prove that you are loyal to Chan School and have never schemed against the Three Sects!?!”

Randeng said calmly, “Does the Water God dare to swear to the Heavenly Dao in public that he has never targeted me, the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School?”

“Is the Deputy Sect Master afraid?”

“The Water God should be afraid.”

“That’s right. I’m indeed afraid…” Afraid… to admit it? Randeng frowned. He had just tried to gain the upper hand in the verbal exchange when Li Changshou suddenly made a sharp turn and beat him again. Li Changshou’s gaze gradually dimmed. There was an inexplicable sadness on his face. He took two steps forward and held the scroll in his hand. He slowly opened it and looked at the rich Heavenly Dao power on it. His eyeballs moved slightly from the right to the left, and he slowly read from top to bottom. However, after reading the opening, waves of True Samadhi Flames suddenly surged out from his hands and burned the scroll! Li Changshou sighed slowly. “I’m indeed afraid. Deputy Sect Master Randeng… The Dao Sect had been in operation for a long time. The Saint had taught the Dao while the disciples of the Saint had worked hard in the Three Realms and scattered the Dao Sect’s fire seedlings across the world. That was how the Dao Sect had prospered. Even if you make all sorts of mistakes and have thousands of schemes, you are still the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School. If something were to happen to you, it would affect the luck of Chan School and the destiny of the Dao Sect.”

He sighed. The white-haired figure sighed and lamented helplessly with some sadness. At that moment, everyone looked at Randeng. They were puzzled, confused, and even resentful… Ji Wuyou’s eyes were filled with longing as he looked up at the back of the Water God. His heart was in turmoil…

What realm is this?

Is this the Heavenly Courts’ Water God?

Ji Wuyou could not guarantee that he had completely understood the battle just now. He could roughly understand the few steps that the Heavenly Courts’ Water God had taken. First, he would be silent in the beginning and avoid the conflict. Then, he would gain the upper hand. Following that, he would completely disrupt the rhythm of Randeng … The most exciting thing was that he had created something out of nothing. He had burned it before the other party had asked him to show the scroll. He had used it to accuse him. Randeng could only remain silent. Everything he said was wrong

At that point in the battle, the Ren School had already won. Moreover, they had successfully turned the possible conflict between Chan School and Ren School into doubts about the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School…

He then recalled that the Randeng was not a disciple of a Saint nor an in-name disciple of the Dao Ancestor. He was originally an “external Dao”. Only then did Ji Wuyou realize that the Water God’s words contained such a “killer move”!

That was not all.

Dirty, really dirty! Following that, Ji Wuyou also began to feel curious. He did not know what to do next.

At this moment!

A strange snort sounded beside the immortals’ ears. It was like a thunderclap, making the immortals with weaker cultivation levels feel dizzy. A five-colored glow lit up in the sky. The divine light was like a divine bird spreading its wings. In the blink of an eye, it arrived and turned into a slender figure. The person was dressed in a green cloth robe and had a golden phoenix crown on his head. He walked over with his head held high. His aura was chaotic. There were five light rays around him. His long neck and handsome face made it impossible for anyone to tell if he was male or female at a glance… He took a few steps forward and locked his gaze on Randeng

At that moment, Randeng was filled with anger. He looked over coldly, and their gazes collided in the air. They could read each other’s hostility.

Suddenly, he heard the Heavenly Courts’ Water God mutter softly from afar, “Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan, don’t clash with him like that. He is the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School. His status in the sect is very high.” “Randeng?” Kong Xuan raised his head slightly and revealed a look of disdain. “Isn’t he just the Spirit Coffin Craftsman from ancient times who carried a coffin and scammed the old Daoist priest of Spirit Vulture Mountain?”

“Fellow Daoist Peacock.” Randeng clearly recognized who Kong Xuan was.

However, just as Li Changshou had expected, Burning Lamp did not know how powerful Kong Xuan was.

The anger that he had stirred up in Randeng happened to find a breakthrough… Randeng said firmly, “Don’t cause a karma disaster for yourself. On account of the fact that you don’t have many bloodlines in the Phoenix Clan, quickly leave lest I hurt you.”

“Karma disaster? You hurt me?” Kong Xuan’s slender phoenix-like eyes narrowed slightly. “Do you really think that you will become a member of the Dao Sect after becoming the Deputy Sect Master of Chan School? Moreover, your position as the Deputy Sect Master was obtained from the Saint. Which living being in the Primordial World who survived from the ancient times doesn’t know about it?”

“Oh?”

Li Changshou held his horsetail whisk and asked in confusion, “Is that so? That’s impossible, right? Deputy Sect Master Randeng’s cultivation level is high and he has many numinous treasures. Why would he do such a thing?”

Kong Xuan shrugged and said, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask the others.”

“How dare you peacock! I’ll fulfill your wish today!” Randeng suddenly shouted. The golden light in the world trembled, and the night sky was as bright as day.

Randeng revealed his 60-feet-tall Treasure Image Dharma body. He raised his hand and threw a green beam at Kong Xuan. The green beam wrapped around a long ruler.

In the blink of an eye, the long ruler turned thousands of feet long and smashed down at Kong Xuan!

Kong Xuan’s expression was cold. There was no nervousness in his eyes. He raised his right hand high and the Five-colored Divine Light around him flickered. It condensed into a five-colored giant hand in front of him and grabbed at the shadow of the ruler. In the blink of an eye, the hand formed by the Five-colored Divine Light stopped the long ruler thrown out by the Burning Lamp. The divine light in his palm swayed, and the Connate Five Elements Qi rotated. The long ruler trembled violently.

Daoist Randeng’s body swayed backward, and his solemn expression changed. He had completely lost contact with his Cosmic Ruler!

The huge hand and the shadow of the long ruler disappeared. The long ruler turned two feet long and was pinched by Kong Xuan. It rotated twice on his fingertips. Kong Xuan smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, you are indeed useless.”

At that moment, Randeng was shocked and angry. If it were any other time, he would have long retreated. However, in front of so many immortals, he had thrown away the treasure and left. He would no longer have to move around in the Primordial World.

He condensed a huge palm and smashed it at Kong Xuan from afar. The five-colored divine light around Kong Xuan transformed into a rainbow that enveloped him and collided with Randeng. The Spirit Coffin on Randeng’s shoulder shone brightly. The universe around him was like a swamp. He pointed at Kong Xuan from afar, and ripples appeared in the universe… Kong Xuan naturally would not face it head-on. His figure flashed to the left. He opened his left hand and the Five-colored Divine Light swept towards Burning Lamp’s Dao Body. In an instant, divine light shone and the golden light became thicker.

The treasure lamp in the coffin emitted seven-colored rays of light, blocking the Five-colored Divine Light. However, the rays of light were disintegrating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At that moment, he suddenly heard an explosion. Another long bronze ruler appeared behind the burning lamp! The ruler was similar to the appearance of the Cosmic Ruler of Randeng. The power it emitted was far beyond what that of Randeng’s could compare to!

The water god had attacked!

In Li Changshou’s heart, the Pagoda Master was shouting angrily, “Hit his lamp! Hit his lamp!” Layers of ripples spread out from the Cosmic Ruler. At the moment before Randeng could react, it smashed straight onto the Spirit Coffin Treasure Lamp!

The seven-colored light flashed and immediately dimmed. The lamp’s wick was only slightly lit. The lamp itself was sent flying by the Cosmic Ruler! The Five-colored Divine Light swept towards the lamp, which immediately dispersed its treasure image. Its figure flashed out of the Five-colored Divine Light and rushed towards the treasure lamp that had been sent flying. At that moment, Randeng heard the shout that almost caused his immortal power to go berserk… “Guys! Stop fighting!” Li Changshou shouted from the side, “Just stop on the account of the Water God!”

As he spoke, he had already recalled the Connate numinous treasure, the Cosmic Ruler, with his right hand. He aimed at the lamp that flew out and threw it again! Li Changshou only made a forward tossing motion, and the Cosmic Ruler appeared beside the coffin lamp. Before the lamp could be lit, it was sent flying again! The Five-colored Divine Light swept over from the side again. Randeng’s eyes were filled with hatred. A Glazed Pagoda appeared above his head. He resisted the Five-colored Divine Light with the pagoda, but his body staggered because of the Five-colored Divine Light. His protective immortal light flickered. If not for the fact that Randeng’s realm was high and his accumulation was deep, he would have been thrown into chaos and his cultivation would have been sealed! The Glazed Pagoda was affected by the Five-colored Divine Light. The immortal light quickly dimmed. Li Changshou recalled the Cosmic Ruler and shouted, “Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan, don’t be angry. I’ll apologize on behalf of Deputy Sect Master Randeng! Fellow Daoist, you must not destroy Deputy Sect Master Randeng’s treasures first. If that happens, I’m afraid Deputy Sect Master Randeng will really not be able to withstand your divine light!”

Kong Xuan smiled when he heard that. He originally did not want to use his divine light to land treasures on others while fighting two against one. Although he could, there was no need.

However, since the Water God had said so, he would naturally cooperate. At that moment, he aimed at the Glazed Pagoda. The Five-colored Divine Light returned and easily brought the pagoda back.

Randeng was on the verge of vomiting blood. At that moment, he could not be bothered with the pagoda. He only wanted his intrinsic treasure lamp. “Don’t go too far!”

His voice stopped, and the universe was suddenly sealed.

Crash…

A wave of water swept across the universe, and the starry sky turned a deep blue. Twenty-four huge stars flickered in the sky. The mysterious Dao runes were fixed on Daoist Randeng, who did not have any treasures to protect him, in the sky!

He heard a loud shout from the sky.

“Deputy Sect Master Randeng, don’t be afraid! I’ve already protected you! Everyone, give me Zhao Gongming, some face. Stop fighting.”

Just as Li Changshou was about to put away the Cosmic Ruler, he heard Master Zhao, who had just appeared in the sky, exclaim.

“Oh no, why is my treasure broken? Why is it not listening to me?” In the sky, Daoist Randeng, who was still charging forward, had an angry expression on his thin face. His eyes were almost popping out…
