My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 636 - That’s a Lie. Neither Will Give In

Chapter 636: That’s a Lie. Neither Will Give In

Ah, the flowers in the courtyard are blooming again.
That thought surfaced in Quan Dong’s mind. His eyes were filled with fatigue.
Three years…
Do you know how I spent the past three years?!
The mortal world was surrounded by clouds and smoke. The human heart was sinister, and the remnant souls were obvious. The filth and human nature in the world seemed to be reminding him, the Jade Emperor, that the path ahead was long!
Fortunately, there were not many matters that he had to ask about in the Heavenly Courts. He had to look for General Dongmu for the trivial matters and Changgeng for the major matters. Since the establishment of the Heavenly Courts until now, various major matters had erupted in the past thousand years.
Previously, because his presence was too inconspicuous and he had the incarnation of the Saint, he, the Jade Emperor, could have an irregular memorial beside him for thousands of years.
At that time, he had only managed the natural weather and plague of the South Continent. However, now…
Under the Nine Heavens, no one dared to disobey the orders of the Heavenly Courts.
In the Three Realms, the Saints and major sects had to retreat.
Those Major Chiliocosms were gradually controlled by the Heavenly Courts. Every Heavenly Token of his would cause immeasurable consequences if anything went wrong.
That was how the Celestial Thearch should be.
At the same time, he shouldered the responsibility of the Heavenly Emperor.
Quan Dong was actually under a lot of pressure. After all, he was just a boy before the Dao Ancestor. It was his first time being a Heavenly Emperor, and he did not have any systematic training.
Fortunately, he had the method that the Dao Ancestor had specified and Senior Brother Taiqing had allowed him to relieve the pressure!
“Find Changgeng.”
Changgeng is really a wonderful person.
Quan Dong thought about that and felt much more at ease.
The mortal city at sunset had a different charm.
The mortal peddlers carried their burdens and embarked on their return journey. The wealthy families closed the main door of the courtyard, and children played on the streets.
These were actually only part of the situation.
Quan Dong suddenly understood why Changgeng had repeatedly mentioned the word “character” when discussing many details of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation with him.
Putting everything else aside, just the feeling of having a good character in the Jiang Residence made the Jade Emperor feel rather comfortable. Those with bad character made the Jade Emperor have the urge to slap them.
However, he was the ruler of the Three Realms after all. It was inappropriate for him to argue with the mortals.
In the future, the Heavenly Courts would appoint officials, warriors, righteous gods, and Itinerant Immortals. They had to consider their goals based on their character. Secondly, they had to consider their intelligence and external appearance. Secondly, they had to consider their mystical abilities and Dharma powers.
What was the use of having powerful Dharma powers and remarkable abilities?
If he looked better on the outside, he could at least increase his personal charm.
Therefore, Quan Dong had not gained nothing from that place. Although Li Changshou had not arrived, he had a deeper understanding of the role of the Heavenly Emperor.
However…
“Changgeng, could it be that you really don’t want to see Jiang Shang?”
The Jade Emperor’s incarnation pondered for a while and decided to wait for another half a year. If Li Changshou did not come, he would take the initiative to go to the Great White Hall.
Bring warmth to Changgeng’s head!
At the thought of Changgeng showing his true feelings in front of him…
“Huh?”
Quan Dong opened his eyes a little. There was a glint in them as he looked to the left.
There, a ball of fog slowly condensed and blocked the mortal’s vision.
A vortex appeared in the universe. A slightly plump Daoist slowly flew out. He was dressed in a loose robe and had an elegant hairstyle. After he appeared, he bowed to Quan Dong.
“Greetings, Uncle-Master Jade Emperor.”
“Oh?” Quan Dong raised his eyebrows and opened his eyes completely. “I was wondering who it was. I actually disturbed the universe and did not expect it to be Disciple-Nephew Duobao. Why are you here, Disciple-Nephew?”
Daoist Duobao revealed a simple and honest smile. He placed his hands in his sleeves and raised them in front of him. “Uncle-Master Jade Emperor, I’m here for a joyous occasion.”
“Where did the joy come from?”
Daoist Duobao said warmly, “The child of this family, Jiang Shang, is talented and intelligent. He has destiny. I want to recommend him to my master and take him in as a disciple. I want to teach him the wonders of longevity and help him cultivate the Dao. It’s such a joyous occasion.”
“Oh.” Quan Dong nodded and chuckled. He understood what Duobao meant.
Jie School was aiming for Changgeng’s master’s reincarnation. They wanted to take Changgeng’s master’s reincarnation into Jie School to be deeply tied to Changgeng.
Hmph!
He really did not take the Jade Emperor seriously. Fairy Yun Xiao and Changgeng were in love, so he did not say anything.
Didn’t he accept Jiang Shang because he wanted Changgeng to side with Jie School while presiding over the Great God-Conferment Tribulation?
The Jade Emperor’s incarnation’s expression turned cold.
He did not have to feign civility with anyone, nor did he have to look at anyone’s expression. Even when facing the Dao Ancestor, he could speak up for justice and express his feelings. Even if he were to face the person who spoke up for Jie School, he did not have to give him any face.
That was the Celestial Thearch.
Quan Dong said slowly, “From what I see, although Jiang Shang’s luck is good, his potential is not good, and his comprehension is not blessed by the heavens. Why did Senior Brother Tongtian take a liking to him?”
Daoist Duobao seemed to have known that. He smiled and said, “Uncle-Master, you have misunderstood. I brought Jiang Shang to the Green Touring Palace to ask Master to take him in as a disciple.”
Quan Dong’s expression was a little cold.
“Do you mean that it’s unknown if Senior Brother Tongtian will accept disciples? Could it be that Jiang Shang went to Jie School and only became a third-generation disciple?”
Duobao already understood that Quan Dong saw Jiang Shang as one of his own in the Heavenly Courts. He was angry that Jie School did not take Jiang Shang seriously.
Duobao hurriedly said, “Uncle-Master, I said that because I haven’t reported it to Master. As long as I bring Jiang Shang back to the Green Touring Palace, Master will definitely take Jiang Shang in as a disciple. Everyone in Jie School will definitely cherish and train him well, so that he can attain Dao and live forever…”
“Heh, well said.”
Quan Dong pursed his lips slightly. He looked at the other side of the Jiang Residence and said calmly, “Come out. Why hide? I’ve been sitting here for three years. How would I not know that you’re here?”
As soon as Quan Dong finished speaking, the pressure of the Heavenly Emperor, which only experts could sense, spread out around him.
The various parts of the Jiang Residence were calm for a while. Then, immortal light swept across. The mortals in the residence fell asleep. Then, immortal light…
It lit up from all directions.
Two flying insects emerged from the roof of the room and turned into two old men with dragon heads.
Three streams of light emerged from the flower pot in the living room. They were three old Daoists dressed in patched clothes.
The guard dog in the backyard trembled a few times and turned into an immortal aura. It was an old woman from the demon race who was covered in a Merit Treasure Light.
Another maidservant, who was pretending to be unconscious, smiled awkwardly. She stood up and looked around. She took out the jade token of the Goddess of Mercy Palace…
Two Netherworld Ghost Generals floated out from the corner. They looked around and were dumbfounded.
That was not the end.
In the forest outside the city, a middle-aged Daoist stood up and took a step into the sky above the Jiang Residence. He bowed to Quan Dong with a Dao salute. He was Guang Chengzi, one of the twelve Golden Immortal heads of Chan School.
Quan Dong was speechless…
So many?
I did not notice it previously… Ahem, that is not important.
Quan Dong snorted coldly. His eyes flickered.
The two Ghost Generals hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed. Their bodies turned into smoke and dissipated.
The Goddess of Mercy bowed, but she rose into the sky and landed behind Daoist Duobao.
The three old Daoists of the Western Sect did not say a word. They bowed and wanted to retreat. Daoist Duobao immediately wanted to move forward.
How could he not raise the ashes that he had given for free?
However, Guang Chengzi smiled and said, “Junior Brother Duobao, you’re a step too late.”
He stopped Daoist Duobao without a trace.
The three old Daoists lowered their heads and rushed forward. In the blink of an eye, they fled hundreds of kilometers and disappeared.
Daoist Duobao was not angry. He smiled and said, “Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, what a coincidence. Are you here too?”
“It’s not a coincidence,” said Guang Chengzi warmly. “I have been waiting here for a long time under Teacher’s orders. I have secretly protected the 13th Golden Immortal of Chan School.”
Daoist Duobao’s eyes flashed.
Quan Dong could not help but smile faintly.
Although the Jade Emperor did not have much experience in handling the political affairs of the Heavenly Courts, he had experienced the ancient times and the ancient times. He had served the Dao Ancestor for a long time and had seen many hidden mockery and hidden competition.
The Jade Emperor did not know if Guang Chengzi had a Saint’s decree.
However, in that wave, the price that Guang Chengzi offered steadily surpassed that of Daoist Duobao. Daoist Duobao had suffered from being anxiety and was eager to attack. He did not notice Guang Chengzi, who was hiding outside the city.
Chan School had already won the battle.
However, looking at Daoist Duobao, he seemed to want to struggle.
As expected, Daoist Duobao smiled and said, “I didn’t expect Second Uncle-Master to like such a disciple. Logically speaking, since Second Uncle-Master has already taken a liking to him, I should not say anything. However, should I ask Junior Brother Changgeng about this? After all, both of us know Jiang Shang’s identity. He is quite close to Junior Brother Changgeng.”
However, Guang Chengzi said, “Jiang Shang has already severed his karma with Junior Brother Changgeng in his previous life. Junior Brother Changgeng had once promised the Goddess of Mercy personally. Coincidentally, the Goddess of Nuwa’s Dao Palace is here. Junior Brother will know once you ask.”
Daoist Duobao looked at the fairy. The latter smiled and squinted. She did not speak or leave.
Who doesn’t have a Saint behind them?
The situation suddenly froze.
Quan Dong was not afraid of causing trouble. He raised his hand and pointed. He directly protected the unconscious child, Jiang Shang. Suddenly, he had a bold idea.
Why don’t…
Huh?
A moment later, Guang Chengzi broke the silence in the sky above the Jiang Residence and smiled.
“Junior Brother Duobao seems to have not given up?”
“Ah.” Duobao cupped his hands and sighed with a smile. “Actually, I shouldn’t have fought with you for this junior brother. However, Jiang Shang has yet to enter Chan School. I have some thoughts.”
Guang Chengzi stopped smiling and said calmly, “Fellow Daoist, are you deliberately making things difficult for me today and deliberately ruining the laws of fate of Chan School?”
“Daoist Brother, your words are different.” Daoist Duobao smiled and looked at Guang Chengzi. It was as if two bolts of lightning were colliding in midair.
The entire city was suddenly like an icehouse!
Li Changshou, who was chatting awkwardly with the two fairies on the Three-Immortal Island, frowned and said to the Goddess of Golden Spirit and the Goddess Wudang, “Something happened in the Heavenly Courts. I’ll go and deal with it.”
Then, he retreated and closed his eyes outside the Immortal Pavilion. He shifted his attention to… the South Continent…
Jiang Residence.
In the backyard.
The maidservant who was in charge of feeding the young master of the Jiang Family opened her eyes but closed them soon after.
In the kitchen, Head Chef Jiang stretched and stood up. He chopped the kitchen knife in his hand on the chopping board and walked out slowly.
In the past three years, the sounds…
“Master has the protection of the Heavenly Dao. I don’t have to care.”
“It’s fine. Master is no longer related to me. It’s not good for me to appear.”
There was nothing he could do about that.
In the end, the Heavenly Dao was not perfect. It was difficult to complete. One of the fifty Great Dao escaped. When the world was created, only forty-nine axes were cleaved. There were rules.
The Heavenly Dao’s protection of Jiang Shang could only reach 98%.
He tried to make up for the 0.2%. It was just a simple task. It was normal for him to get some Golden Immortal Golden Core paper effigies to guard at the side just in case.
Look, isn’t this the perfect time to save the situation?
The chef flew into the sky and transformed into the young Daoist priest that Li Changshou often used. He smiled awkwardly at the Jade Emperor’s incarnation, Daoist Duobao, and Guang Chengzi, who were all speechless.
“This…”
Swoosh!
Quan Dong’s figure flashed and appeared behind Li Changshou’s paper effigy. His eyes were burning with red light. A pair of metal band-like hands grabbed Li Changshou’s paper effigy’s neck and threw him into the sea…
“Three years! You hid under my watch for three years!”
“Your Majesty… Please forgive me… Your concealment ability is too powerful. I did not notice you here. It was you who took the initiative to reveal your aura just now… Ahem!”
“Yes?”
Quan Dong immediately calmed down and released Li Changshou’s paper effigy’s neck. He smiled and said, “Is that so?”
“Ah.” Li Changshou smiled sincerely.
Duobao lowered his head and pursed his lips when he saw that. Guang Chengzi looked up at the sky with his hands behind his back. The fairy of Goddess Nuwa’s Palace covered her mouth and chuckled.
The Jade Emperor…
That was too easy.
…
A moment later, in the backyard of the Jiang Residence.
The night sky was blurry, and the moonlight was like water. The mortals who were sleeping everywhere were carried to their original residence by Li Changshou using his immortal power. He used his immortal power to envelop a small building in the backyard.
The child, Jiang Shang, was sleeping soundly on the second floor of the building.
Li Changshou invited the Jade Emperor’s incarnation, Guang Chengzi, Daoist Duobao, and the fairy of Goddess Nuwa’s Palace to take a seat downstairs.
Li Changshou set up the banquet that he had prepared for Jiang Shang’s grandparents previously and took out some wine that was commonly seen in the mortal world. He smiled and invited his two senior brothers to drink and eat.
Li Changshou was calm as if he had never said that he did not care about this place.
As long as he did not feel awkward, others would feel awkward.
Guang Chengzi and Daoist Duobao were a little embarrassed.
Daoist Duobao, in particular, blushed slightly.
In comparison, Guang Chengzi was much calmer. However, he did not dare to look Li Changshou in the eye.
Clearly, these two Eldest Senior Brothers had come here because they wanted to use Jiang Shang to plot against him, Taibai Jinxing, without obtaining the Saint’s decree.
At that moment, Daoist Duobao was really embarrassed.
The embarrassment that Guang Chengzi displayed should be because he wanted to apologize later and prevent Li Changshou from asking where the Saint’s decree was.
He was just feeling guilty.
At that moment, the Jade Emperor’s incarnation was sitting in the main seat. He was just sitting there and watching the two Eldest Senior Brothers of the sect deal with the current situation.
He saw how passive they were when facing Changgeng.
He admired the subtle and thought-provoking expressions of the two mighty figures who had previously looked down on the Heavenly Courts but now had to consider the consequences of offending the Heavenly Courts.
Interesting.
After three rounds of wine, the dishes were tasteless.
The fairy was the first to speak. “Lord Taibai Jinxing, can I say something unrelated?”
“Fairy, just tell me.”
The fairy’s face was flushed, and her eyes lit up. She was almost about to pounce on him. She restrained herself and whispered, “Have you been cooking all these years? Fairy Yun Xiao and Fairy Ling’e are too happy!”
Li Changshou smiled and shook his head.
You can’t imagine their happiness.
Ahem, let’s get down to business.
“Fairy, why are you here?”
“I’m just following the Goddess’s orders to secretly protect Jiang Shang here. I don’t have any ulterior motives.” After saying that, the fairy immediately raised her hand. “Can you swear to the Heavenly Dao!?!”
Quan Dong’s fingers moved slightly, and thunder rumbled above the small building.
Looking at the fairy’s pale face, she was speechless. She almost got up and knelt down to Li Changshou…
Interesting.
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Thank you for protecting me, Fairy.”
“Ah, it’s my duty. I’m glad you don’t blame me.”
Li Changshou nodded and shifted his gaze to Guang Chengzi and Daoist Duobao. There was a smile on his lips, and his voice was very gentle.
However, the weight of his words made Guang Chengzi and Daoist Duobao’s expressions change slightly.
“Senior Brothers, you are in charge of the Sect Interruption of Chan School. You have the trust of the two Uncle-Masters. If I don’t appear today, will I have to fight here? Is he invincible outside the Dao Sect? Over the years, I have cut off the wings of the Western Sect step by step, removed their destiny, and compressed the areas that they can teleport and avoid. Are the two senior brothers really unwilling to look at the word above their heads? First, there was the Dao Sect. Then, there are the Ren School, Chan School, and Jie School. Aren’t we all self-proclaimed disciples of the Dao Sect?”
“Changgeng, this…”
Daoist Duobao was a little hesitant. Then, he sighed softly. “Senior Brother is anxious. I made a mistake. I’ll apologize to you again.”
However, Guang Chengzi said, “In the face of the Great Tribulation, apart from self-preservation, I have no time to care about anything else.”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Senior Brother, are you saying that to pave the way for Chan School and the Western Sect to join forces?”
“Junior Brother, your words are too sharp,” Guang Chengzi said seriously. “The disciples of Chan School are upright and have good luck. We are proud to be able to become Teacher’s disciple. Now that the Great Tribulation was in front of them, everyone in Jie School, who had triggered the Great Tribulation, had gathered like a flood! Could it be that you have really caused Chan School to be attacked by the junior brothers and junior sisters of Jie School and attacked them together? You have completed the Great Tribulation and also fulfilled your feelings for Jie School?”
“When has Jie School ever thought that way!?!”
Daoist Duobao frowned and said, “If not for the fact that Chan School is unwilling to lose a disciple in the Purple Cloud Palace, causing the Saints to leave unhappily, they might have already thought of a way to deal with the Great Tribulation today.”
Guang Chengzi said, “The Great Tribulation is originally targeted at the negative karma of the world and the negative karma of living beings. Since the disciples of Chan School have been cultivating, we have rarely committed any sins. We have also once taught the human race. I have a disciple who is a sage of the human race in the Fire Cloud Cave. What I owe the human race the most is Jie School. Why should I drag Chan School into this Great Tribulation and die with you? According to Uncle-Master Tongtian’s intention that day, Jie School had lost 3,000 and Chan School had lost 300. What about after that? There are tens of thousands of immortals in Jie School. There are only hundreds of disciples in Chan School! How can Teacher agree!?!”
Daoist Duobao said firmly, “Are the disciples of Jie School not disciples of the Dao Sect? Is Chan School blaming us for taking in and choosing disciples? When has Jie School ever stopped Chan School from taking in disciples?”
“Junior Brother, you’re being unreasonable.”
“Senior Brother, your words are too unpleasant. Is it a sin to have many immortals from Jie School?!”
Guang Chengzi frowned. Daoist Duobao’s face was flushed red. Although the two of them did not reveal any pressure, they gave the fairy a huge pressure.
“Senior Brothers…”
“Junior Brother, you decide.”
Guang Chengzi took half a step back and sighed softly. “Which sect did Jiang Shang enter and which disciple of the Saint?”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
What?
“Alright, stop fighting!” Quan Dong threw the wine cup in his hand away. “Jiang Shang, this disciple, I…”
Crack!
Boom! Boom!
A bolt of purple-red lightning suddenly appeared outside the small building. Then, there was a muffled explosion.
Quan Dong blinked and said, “Ahem, I don’t think there’s a need to come to a conclusion for the time being. Why don’t the two sects take a step back and let the Heaven’s Will decide? The two sects can’t be going against the will of the heavens, right?”
Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief and felt a little regretful.
