Chapter 697: Crazy Kill

Sigh…

Three months after Zhao Gongming’s wedding in Little Qiong Peak, Ling’e seemed to be in low spirits. She walked aimlessly by the lake. She held the willow branch in her hand and gently swept the fallen leaves on the ground.

Ah, after Li Changshou returned, he often muttered ‘Big Brother’. She could not tell if he was fierce or stern.

A few spiritual birds chirped. The morning of the Little Qiong Peak was filled with the warmth of the sun. Under the sparkling lake, the variety of spiritual fish became richer.

Ling’e recalled that Youqin Xuanya had returned from killing the demons last night. Her senior brother had called her, Lingli, and Senior Sister Youqin together. She could not help but smile happily.

“One thing. I have already discussed with the Chaos Bell. If necessary, I will protect the Little Qiong Peak and fly out of the Primordial World to the Xuandu City.

Youqin, Lingli, the two of you need to make a decision now. At that time, will you leave with me or work in the Heavenly Courts? At that time, as long as he stayed, there would be no problem. There might be some risks if he followed me, but the risks could be controlled. Don’t be in a hurry to answer. I hope that you can think carefully and plan your life. Ling’e, I won’t ask you.”

Hmph, Senior Brother clearly doesn’t want me to leave.

He was lying.

However, Ling’e was a little depressed.

The Little Qiong Peak in the Immortal Du Sect was so lively. A few of the Jiu Immortals came to play every day. Her Little Grandmaster and Aunt-Master Jiu stayed over there often. There was also Aunt-Master Jiu Yushi and Senior Sister Liu Yan’er…

However, there was nothing she could do.

Her Senior Brother had too many responsibilities. Moreover, his personality was like that. This day will come sooner or later.

It was quite sad when she thought about it.

Moreover, from the looks of it, Senior Sister Youqin might stay in the Heavenly Courts.

That was Ling’e’s intuition and her judgment after analyzing it.

Youqin Xuanya was different from her. She was focused on Li Changshou and saw him as her role model.

Of course, Li Changshou was almost like a mountain to Youqin Xuanya now. Even if she caught up, she would not be able to climb it.

Although Youqin Xuanya had come to the Heavenly Courts under Li Changshou’s arrangement, she revealed a strong sense of belonging and recognition towards the Heavenly Courts when Ling’e chatted with her.

It was as if immortal life had a different value.

Senior Sister Youqin was actually very charming, but Ling’e did not envy her.

They had different choices and pursuits.

What will the Little Qiong Peak become in the future?

Ling’e threw away the willow branch and folded her hands in front of her. She folded her skirt and knelt down by the lake. She looked at the lake for a while and took out some fish food and scattered it in the lake.

I’m living for Senior Brother.

…

He was extremely ferocious.

Li Changshou sat on the straw hut’s meditation cushion and looked a little stunned.

There was a chessboard in front of him. The black and white chess pieces intertwined with each other. There were mysterious Dao runes on it.

There were various signs that something was going to happen to his brother.

He remembered that when he touched the Heavenly Dao through the Primordial Violet Qi, the “prediction” he saw was that Zhao Gongming had a bloody hole in his chest and was facing layers of figures.

That scene was actually very problematic.

Why didn’t the immortals of Jie School attack?

With Brother Zhao’s status and reputation in Jie School, it was impossible for Jie School to ignore him. The Grandmaster of Heaven might be stopped by the other party’s Saint, at least some of Jie School’s immortals could rush over to help.

It was obvious that this scene happened in the script that the Heavenly Dao had deduced.

At that moment, he could use it as a reference, but he did not have to believe it.

Under his interference and the Heavenly Dao and the Dao Ancestor changing the script, the exact situation had definitely changed.

However, he was certain that the Heavenly Dao would definitely attack Zhao Gongming.

Zhao Gongming’s wedding had intensified his danger.

The logic was simple—If the Heavenly Dao wanted there to be a huge battle between Chan and Jie Schools, or even a battle between Saints to quickly fill the vacancies of the God roll, there has to be a catalyst for the two sides to fight.

Originally, the Great God-Conferment Tribulation had no reference value, but that was the path that the Heavenly Dao had chosen.

On Chan School’s side, even if Guang Chengzi was surrounded and killed by the immortals of Jie School, most immortals could still control themselves.

However, even if the Goddess of Stone from Jie School died, it could cause a huge commotion.

If something happened to Zhao Gongming and he was killed by Chan School, that scene…

Moreover, now that Zhao Gongming was in trouble, the Goddess of Golden Spirit would definitely not let the matter rest. Wouldn’t a battle between the disciples of the Saint easily erupt?

When the time comes, the two Saints of the Western Sect will join the Great Tribulation in the name of revenge. If the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning blocked the Grandmaster of Heaven, the disciples of Jie School could naturally fill the vacancies.

To be honest, if he were in a different place, he would not let go of such a useful pawn as the Dao Ancestor.

How could he solve the problem?

Zhao Gongming had been laughing all day. In fact, he had long predicted the calamity ahead.

The emotional and satisfied expression he had shown at the wedding banquet was also a form of self-comfort.

Zhao Gongming.

Once he entered the Primordial World, it was as deep as the ocean. He would not be lonely if he met the public.

I’ll deduce again. Although I already have the solution to break the situation and I’m confident that I can break it, there are too many things to consider.

The current situation revolving around Zhao Gongming was a small one. The overall situation revolved around the living beings.

It was a basic requirement not to make a huge loss because of a small loss. If he could win a small game and the overall situation, it would not affect his chances of winning. That would be a qualified answer.

An outstanding answer was to increase the chances of winning in a small game.

To be honest, it was indeed very difficult.

The two Saints of the Western Sect, the Heavenly Dao, the Dao Ancestor, the power of the Great Tribulation, the entire Chan School…

That was the power that he had to face if he wanted to protect his brother. Just his teacher alone was not enough. His tactics were extremely important.

Yes, I’ll set up a trap in advance and see if I can lure Maitreya out and sweep it away.

Li Changshou raised his hand and gently took a few black pieces from the chessboard. He filled a few white pieces. The situation on it immediately changed, vaguely evolving the situation when the Yin and Yang fish merged.

He closed his eyes and focused. Thoughts kept flowing in his heart. He seemed to have merged with nature.

As he kept thinking, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the chessboard in front of him. His figure flashed and appeared on the other side of the short table. He lowered his head and looked at the patterns on the chessboard.

“Same… same!”

It was the opposite!

Yes!

Li Changshou clenched his fists. His clear Dao heart could not suppress the agitation within.

A brand new, somewhat crazy, and actually more reliable plan had been slowly constructed in his heart. His original idea had been completely messed up, and it had an extraordinary meaning to the overall situation!

He could also make the Dao Ancestor believe that he was a capable man like Senior Lang!

After restarting his clear Dao heart, Li Changshou immediately sat down cross-legged and quietly meditated. He quickly completed the plan in his heart and repeatedly checked if he was affected by the Heavenly Dao.

After checking 80 to 90 times, Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief.

This wave was at least outstanding and 98% imperfect!

Hence, a few days later…

Li Changshou left the straw hut with a heavy heart. When he saw that Ling’e had already gone to the chess room to play, he shook his head and walked into the Pill Chamber.

He wanted to refine some pills and see if he could increase Jiang Shang’s cultivation level.

At this juncture, Jiang Shang had undergone the Immortal Ascension Tribulation. There was no reason for the Heavenly Dao not to go easy on him. That way, Jiang Shang could successfully enter the Immortal realm and make up for his regrets in his previous life.

When Jiang Shang passed the Bridge of Helplessness, he saw Meng Po a few times. It had nothing to do with him.

However, who could say anything when they were concerned about their fellow disciples?

Speaking of which, isn’t Jiang Shang going to Chaoge City?

Could it be that if he snatched the right to become a god, Jiang Shang’s scenes would be ruined, and the Heavenly Dao would not take Jiang Shang seriously?

Something was amiss. He felt that Jiang Shang’s failure to cultivate was completely the fault of the Heavenly Dao.

Many of the Heavenly Dao’s ideas about the mortal world should be realized through Jiang Shang. He would definitely arrange for Jiang Shang to become an important minister of the Zhou Nation and control the military and politics.

Speaking of the change in Zhou and Shang, Li Changshou felt a little awkward.

If the Zhou Nation could naturally defeat the Shang Nation, he would not feel that there was any problem. However, if the Heavenly Dao made a choice and supported one while undermining the other, he would have a fair statement.

In terms of the overall plan, he still had to avoid interfering too much in the mortal world. That would not be beneficial to mortals.

Li Changshou’s entire plan would keep the mortals under the protection of the “winner”. It could be considered a comfort to Senior Suiren.

As for the immortals who had embarked on the path of cultivation…

There are dreams in life, and each is exciting.

His strength was limited and he could not take care of everything.

Since he had already embarked on cultivation, wouldn’t he have the determination to not be controlled by the heavens? So what if he had the will of the heavens? His heart belonged to him. He had the resolve to die.

He opened the furnace and the fire jumped gently. Li Changshou took a few spiritual herbs and turned them into pure spiritual energy in his palm before slowly sending them into the furnace fire.

With his current alchemy skills, he could not refine anything else apart from the Nine Revolutions Pill.

While refining the pills, a paper effigy had already escaped from the depths of the earth and arrived near Kunlun Mountain to wait quietly.

It was unknown if Li Changshou had calculated it well or if it was really a coincidence.

As soon as the paper effigy arrived near Kunlun Mountain, he saw a white cloud carrying two figures slowly flying out.

Li Changshou took a closer look and realized that it was Shen Bao and Jiang Shang.

At that moment, Shen Bao and Jiang Shang seemed to be quite harmonious. Shen Bao even took the initiative to wrap Jiang Shang with a layer of immortal power to prevent Jiang Shang from being exposed to the elements. He looked like a senior and junior brother.

Chan School did not have the God roll and the name of controlling the God roll. Shen Bao and Jiang Shang did not seem to have any conflicts.

On the contrary, the leopard saw that Jiang Shang had yet to become immortal and was extremely awkward in the Jade Void Palace. He could only say that he had 32 wives and concubines back then and felt that Jiang Shang was quite pitiful…

Shen Bao flew for a while and asked, “Teacher has ordered us to go down the mountain this time. Junior Brother, what are your plans?”

Shen Bao had transcended the Golden Immortal Tribulation earlier because of Li Changshou’s secret guidance. He had also repeatedly courted death during the Golden Immortal Tribulation. He had been protected by the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning who had sent the White Crane Child. He had entered the sect before Jiang Shang and naturally became a senior brother.

It was obvious how much Li Changshou had interfered with the God-Conferment matter.

Jiang Shang sighed and said, “I don’t have any other thoughts. That senior brother of mine in the past told me how good it is to cultivate in the mountains and how carefree I will be when I achieve longevity in the future. In the end, it’s just a waste.”

As he spoke, Jiang Shang turned around and looked at the continuous palaces of the Jade Void Palace. He could only sigh slightly.

He did not dare to scold. He wanted to say that Chan School had cheated and recruited students, but he was afraid that he would be torn to pieces. Recalling his experience along the way, he realized that he had indeed taught them carefully.

However, he was not too hardworking. He could not understand what he should understand.

Shen Bao said warmly, “Every living being has different opportunities. Their encounters will also be different. When we left the mountain, Teacher said that your opportunities are in the mortal world of the South Continent. You have yet to become an immortal. You are also a disciple of Chan School. You have also learned the Dao of governing and safeguarding the country for so long. It is a good thing for you to assist the Emperor in the mortal world and benefit the mortals.”

Jiang Shang forced a smile.

“Hehe.”

Shen Bao knew that it was not appropriate for him to persuade him. If he did, it would seem like he was making sarcastic remarks. He cupped his hands at Jiang Shang and did not say anything else.

They naturally did not notice that there was a paper effigy following closely underground.

Jiang Shang asked, “Senior Brother, where are you going?”

“I…”

Shen Bao looked at his palm in confusion.

He did not understand why his teacher had instructed Jiang Shang so many times but only drew a leaf in his palm for him to comprehend.

Leaves…

Floating and falling? Falling leaves returning to their roots?

Shen Bao sighed and said, “Now that the battle between Chan School and Jie School has begun, I want to go to Jie School and take a look. I want to go around and think of a solution. I will do my best to prevent the Chan School and Jie School from fighting.

I want Jie School to safely survive the Great Tribulation. Let the Dao Sect continue to prosper!”

Jiang Shang looked up at Shen Bao, his eyes filled with admiration. He bowed to Shen Bao.

Underground, Li Changshou’s paper effigy almost jumped out and slapped Shen Bao to death.

In the Pill Chamber of Little Qiong Peak, the corners of Li Changshou’s mouth twitched.

F*ck!

The leopard has gone crazy!

Just like that, Li Changshou watched as Shen Bao sent Jiang Shang to the edge of the South Continent and avoided the patrolling Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals.

Jiang Shang’s heart was filled with the glory and wealth of the first half of his life. After bidding farewell to Shen Bao, he rode a cloud and rushed to the large city that he had previously lived in. Shen Bao headed towards the islands of the East Ocean to visit various places.

Chan School had saved him once and the Saint had accepted him as a disciple,

However, Shen Bao was a leopard who knew how to repay favors. He still had a deep relationship with Jie School and wanted to help Jie School the most.

Underground, a paper effigy emerged from Li Changshou’s paper effigy’s sleeve. They split up and observed at the same time.

He began to think about how to make further arrangements for Shen Bao. It would be best if Shen Bao could milk Maitreya and the Western Sect and make full use of Shen Bao’s mouth.

That was a divine weapon that had been blessed by the Heavenly Dao.

When Shen Bao and Jiang Shang left the mountain, it meant that they had completely entered the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. They were two important pawns of the Heavenly Dao.

A pawn that he would definitely not touch.

Putting aside the fact that Jiang Shang had returned to his old residence, he realized that everything had changed. His original wife and concubine had already moved out of the city and had a new life.

Everyone was fine.

He was even more at a loss. He did not know how to face the cold mortal world. He could only ride a cloud in front of everyone to show off his Dharma powers and head towards Chaoge City.

Shen Bao flew straight to the East Ocean.

Li Changshou rode the paper effigy and sped along. Shen Bao did not notice that it had changed to Water Escape.

At that moment, Shen Bao had already made up his mind. After reaching Jie School’s territory, he would consider himself a disciple of Chan School and use the karma of his previous life to fight with the immortals of Jie School.

The first step was to let the immortals of Jie School feel that the immortals of Chan School were not all enemies. It was the first step to reconcile the two sects.

As long as they are willing to work hard, they will definitely be able to help!

Shen Bao’s eyes were filled with determination. He decided to use all his strength to show the “posture” that he had taught. He tried his best to fight with the immortals of Jie School!

As he flew, Shen Bao had already arrived near Nine Dragons Island. He tidied his hair and robe and immediately wanted to go to the island to visit the Qi Refinement cultivators there. However, he saw a Fellow Daoist fly out of Nine Dragons Island and towards Golden Ao Island.

Shen Bao looked at the fellow Daoist who looked very kind. For a moment, he could not remember who it was. His cultivation level did not fall. Therefore, he cupped his hands and shouted, “Fellow Daoist, please wait!”

Li Changshou frowned and realized that things were not simple.

Zhao Jiang, one of the ten Heavenly Lords, frowned. For some reason, he suddenly had the thought of stopping the cloud. He stopped the cloud and turned his head to shout,

“Who are you? What are you doing?”

Shen Bao hurriedly walked forward and quickly recalled the Golden Immortal of Golden Ao Island and the ten Heavenly Lords. He bowed deeply.

“Disciple of Chan School, Shen Bao, greets you, Fellow Daoist?”

Chan School?

Zhao Jiang suddenly perked up. He stared at Shen Bao and suddenly recalled something. There was no hostility in his eyes.

“It’s you. I’ve heard about your encounters. Fellow Daoist, it’s not easy… Where are you going?”

Shen Bao took out the excuse that he had long prepared and whispered,

“Now that the Great Tribulation is here, I shouldn’t go out. However, I’m really worried. I want to come back and visit my old friends and think of a way to deal with the Great Tribulation. Ah, I’m not a man of many words. I’m not a mighty mystical ability. I can only contribute my strength to resist the Great Tribulation.”

Zhao Jiang’s eyes lit up. “Fellow Daoist, do you want to join Jie School again?”

“You can’t say that. You can say that…”

“Hahaha! It’s a good thing, a good thing! Let’s go to the Nine Dragons Island to have a chat. The banquet here has yet to end. I can talk to Fellow Daoist!”

Hence, Li Changshou lay in the soft sand at the bottom of the sea and watched the two figures talking with their arms around each other’s shoulders enter the array formation outside the Nine Dragons Island. He felt helpless.

That works too?

Should I arrange for Brother Zhao to send this leopard into the God-Conferment Platform first?

Li Changshou fell into deep thought. He allowed the two sea stars to pass by and chase after the jellyfish in the distance.
