My Senior Brother is Too Steady - Chapter 224
Chapter 224: First Experience of the Venomous Tongue of Life
At the ends of the world, on an island not far away from the famous town of World Edge City, which was a small area of the Primordial World, a few elders were waiting on the cloud. Bian Zhuang, and the old woman who was from Li Changshou’s brand were taking a stroll on the island while chatting.
At that moment, Li Changshou did not say anything. He just smiled and walked by the side.
There were too many words stuck in Bian Zhuang’s throat.
The two of them walked dozens of steps on the beach before Bian Zhuang said, “Fellow Daoist Ke Le’er… how has she been lately?”
Li Changshou sighed softly. “Fellow Daoist, do you think she will be well?”
Bian Zhuang immediately became nervous and asked, “Did something happen? Where is she now? I’ll immediately…”
“Fellow Daoist, I’ll call you Bian Zhuang!”
Li Changshou frowned and continued, “Do you know how much trouble you have caused my Little Master? If not for the World Edge Pavilion that is supporting you, you would have been a corpse in the sea!”
The few people in the sky frowned. At the same time, they heard the old lady’s voice. They lowered their heads and looked…
Bian Zhuang was stunned. He mumbled, “I… I caused trouble for her?”
“Bian Zhuang, you should be a reasonable person.”
Li Changshou’s paper effigy sighed and started to tell a story about admirers and perverts.
Of course, he applied the logic of his previous life to the background of the Primordial World.
Li Changshou had gone here today to stop Bian Zhuang. In fact… it was a stab to his heart.
It was his own business to love her wholeheartedly. If he could not get a response from the person he admired, he could just silently bless her in his heart. He could not forcefully affect her and turn himself into a pervert…
Li Changshou had seen such incidents a few times in his previous life. In the end, the results were not good.
In fact, in his previous life, even if most people had someone they liked, they would choose to hide it in their hearts because of their pride and dignity.
Some people, like Bian Zhuang, would not care about their own lives and go all out to pursue the person whom they admired.
No one could explain things like feelings.
However, a monster could still be distinguished at a glance.
In the Primordial World, people were focused on individual abilities and combat skills. There were also frequent instances of people using the ‘Truth of Mystical abilities’ to forcefully get Dao companions…
After the story was finished, Bian Zhuang could not help but be stunned. He whispered, “Have I already become Le Le’s problem?”
“Fellow Daoist, have you ever received my little master’s approval?”
“I…”
“Isn’t it a little too much to address her using such a nickname without obtaining her permission?”
Those calm words were so ear-piercing that Bian Zhuang frowned and his lips turned pale.
However, Li Changshou felt that he did not stab Bian Zhuang in the heart hard enough. He had to wake Bian Zhuang up.
“Fellow Daoist, you caused trouble in the Dragon Palace. My little master is in a very awkward situation. It doesn’t matter if you fell in love with her at first sight or you just can’t forget her. My little master doesn’t have any feelings for you. At this moment, all she feels is annoyance. Before this, you two only had a brief conversation and my Little Master told you to get lost. Bian Zhuang, have you ever considered this? While you fell for my Little Master, she does feel the same for you.”
Bian Zhuang clutched his chest and could not help but take two steps back. Her face was pale.
Li Changshou sighed in his heart and continued to perform…
“You’re the young master of the World Edge Pavilion. You’ve been surrounded by people who serve you since you were young. Everyone around you follows your orders. However, Bian Zhuang, you have a mature mind. You should understand a principle.”
Bian Zhuang said with a bitter smile, “Senior, please enlighten me.”
“Put yourself in her shoes.”
“Put myself in her shoes?”
“That’s right.” Li Changshou said, “You can think about it yourself. If there’s an unfamiliar woman who is madly in love with you and waits for you in front of World Edge Pavilion every day, how would you feel?”
Bian Zhuang mumbled, “I naturally find it a little annoying… Le, Is Fellow Daoist Ke Le’er tired of me too?”
“You can say that she hates you to the core.”
“I…”
“In order to avoid trouble like you, my little master avoided the wedding of her good friend, Princess Jiang Si’er. She did not participate.”
“How could this be…”
Li Changshou did not have the heart to do it. However, when he thought about how his Second Sect Master had just gotten married and was being targeted by a man…
If he continued, he would let Bian Zhuang understand everything today!
The ones who were good at mind games were naturally not weak at hurting others.
“Bian Zhuang, do you really think that you can sit in front of the Dragon Palace’s gate and use this method to express your devotion and love to her, is because of yourself?”
“It’s because, because I’m just the young master of the World Edge Pavilion.”
Bian Zhuang sighed deeply, his eyes filled with helplessness.
“If you don’t have this identity, you will only be an ordinary Heaven Immortal in the Primordial World. What abilities do you have that can catch my little master’s eye? If you don’t have that identity, where did you get that invitation? You love her, so she has to love you back. What kind of logic is that? This is no longer just being domineering. This is a little twisted.”
Bian Zhuang stood rooted to the ground and could not help but mutter, “I… Am I useless… I was thinking about seeing Lady Le before using my sincerity to move her…”
“Be more confident and get rid of it.”
Li Changshou said calmly, “My Little Master has someone she loves. She can’t tolerate anyone else. If you really fell in love with my little master at first sight, you should put away your thoughts. Bian Zhuang, there are plenty of beautiful herbs in the world. You are still young, and your cultivation level is not high. What can you do if you don’t think of ways to become famous and obtain the Dao Fruit of Longevity? I came here today to tell you all these. Young man, you haven’t even gained eternal life. Why do you think about things that are useless for your own cultivation?”
It was rare for Li Changshou to be emotionally involved but he was when he said that last sentence.
Then, Li Changshou looked at the few people in the sky who were somewhat indignant and said calmly, “The Primordial World is huge. There are more than just the five continents. There are many people and things that you can’t imagine in the trichiliocosm. I will take my leave now.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the old paper effigy’s figure turned faint. Soon after, a layer of mist appeared on his forehead. The old body was quickly melted by the mist.
That was the advanced version of the self-destructing paper effigies.
In order to separate it from the method of burning the paper effigies into ashes, Li Changshou had engraved different talismans and restrictions on the paper effigies.
After a while, the old woman turned into fog and was blown away by the wind, as if she had never appeared.
Bian Zhuang’s legs went weak and he fell onto the beach. His aura was extremely weak. The elders hurriedly came down and surrounded him.
“Young Master, don’t… be too sad.”
“At the very least, you’re very handsome!”
“That’s right. When we were young, we were not as handsome and powerful as you, Young Master. There was also a powerful force supporting us from behind… our backs…”
The old man who spoke was glared at by the others.
Bian Zhuang smiled bitterly and sat there, sighing softly. “My heart is dead. I won’t do it again. I won’t.”
“Young Master, you…”
“Let’s go back first, Young Master.”
The few elders had no choice but to help Bian Zhuang up and ride a cloud towards World Edge City.
Although the old woman’s words were unpleasant, they made sense.
Although the World Edge Pavilion’s main business was in the field of “temporary Love Tribulation”, it was not an overbearing force. Everyone had to be reasonable.
On the way, Bian Zhuang sat on the white cloud and kept mumbling…
“The falling flowers and flowing water are heartless. The flowers are blooming and the water is flowing towards the east.”
“Who knows where the heart is? It’s hidden in the white clouds. The white clouds are gone with the wind, and there’s no trace of the heart.”
“Ah…”
“The Heavens and Earth have lasted for a long time. This hatred is endless.”
The elders looked at each other. Although they had Dao companions and had younger mentalities, they did not understand why their Young Master was so infatuated with someone…
However, since the other party had made it clear and caused their Young Master to suffer a blow, it was time for him to wake up.
That was actually a good thing for their Young Master.
The white cloud slowly flew outside the protective array of World Edge City. According to the rules there, there was a long queue outside the door, as people were waiting to enter the city.
“No, I’m not going back.”
Bian Zhuang suddenly said in a low voice and jumped up from the white clouds. He looked at the peaceful, comfortable, and dull World Edge City in front of him before turning to look at the boundless ocean behind him.
“Everyone, I, Bian Zhuang, will roam the five continents in the future! I will definitely make a name for myself!”
“Young Master, what happened to you?”
Bian Zhuang took a deep breath. “That senior is right. Without the World Edge Pavilion, I’m useless. I want to make a name for myself. I want to make a name for myself! I!”
At that moment, a beautiful figure flew out of World Edge City and flew into the sky.
The female immortal exuded a faint pressure. She had a slim figure and long hair that hung down her waist. She wore a light cloud dress and had a veil on her face.
Bian Zhuang stared blankly at her. The woman frowned slightly and turned to glance at him.
At that moment, Bian Zhuang heard a “dong-dong” sound. It was as if someone had knocked on his heart a few times.
“My heart… seems to be alive again.”
Bian Zhuang muttered to himself. His entire body trembled as he hurriedly urged them to drive the cloud forward. He shouted loudly, “Fairy, could you please wait for a while!?!”
Uh?
The old men behind him were speechless. They felt the surrounding gazes and wanted to slap their young master unconscious.
At the same time… in the Elder Moon Hall of the Heavenly Courts, Elder Moon returned from the East Ocean and told General Dongmu about the wedding banquet. He rushed to the rear hall and summoned Ao Yi’s clay figurine.
As expected, the clay figurine was wrapped in red strings.
He picked up a pair of scissors and quickly cut off the red string. He stared at the source of the red string with a complicated expression. It was Bian Zhuang’s clay figurine.
“I can’t bear to see you being such a devoted lover. Sigh…”
However, just as Elder Moon finished speaking, Bian Zhuang’s clay figurine trembled slightly. The red string on his wrist fell off.
Elder Moon’s eyes lit up. “This fellow suddenly understood?”
However, to Elder Moon’s surprise, the clay figurine turned around and flew away quickly. It passed through the sea of stars and approached another clay figurine. The red string on Bian Zhuang’s clay figurine’s wrist appeared again. It was still growing crazily!
Eh? What kind of situation is this?
Elder Moon tilted his head in confusion.
However, Elder Moon took a closer look and heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, other things aside, the other party was a woman and not a man.
However… this woman seems to be a member of the Heavenly Courts?
She seemed to be a certain fairy in the Jade Pool. There was a faint golden glow around her. Clearly, she was in the Golden Immortal realm…
Elder Moon could not help but mutter to him. He felt a little helpless about that. He could only smile bitterly and follow Bian Zhuang.
“I, Elder Moon, am willing to call you the Amorous Immortal.”
…
“Done!”
In the secret underground chamber of Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou opened his eyes and revealed a confident smile.
It had to be said that it was quite satisfying to be sharp-tongued occasionally.
“That’s right. Isn’t this Bian Zhuang a little too cruel?”
Li Changshou muttered to himself. Although he had complained that he felt good, there were some things that he had said to attack Bian Zhuang.
Infatuation was not a crime. He just had to control himself.
“I should not have any dealings with this Bian Zhuang in the future. The World Edge Pavilion might be considered a powerful faction in the trichiliocosm. However, in the five continents, it is equivalent to an immortal sect in the Middle Continent.”
Li Changshou pondered quietly. A few thoughts suddenly popped up in his mind.
In the twelve admonishments that he had given the Jade Emperor, he had mentioned the management of the trichiliocosm. However, Li Changshou had actually mentioned it in order to perfect his advice.
The logic was simple. The Heavenly Courts would secretly manage the trichiliocosm. One, they could consolidate their authority, and the other result would be that they could strengthen the Heavenly Courts’ forces and nurture soldiers for the Heavenly Courts’ use.
He could even manage the trichiliocosm surrounding the five continents.
Just like the Western Sect, they could hide part of their strength in the trichiliocosm and the Heavenly Courts could imitate them.
When the Heaven and Earth fluctuated, he could use that portion of his strength to stabilize Heaven and Earth.
“This matter can’t be explained by me.” Li Changshou thought carefully.
He had already firmly taken over the position of the Heavenly Court’s legitimate god just by plotting against the dragon race. He had also obtained the Jade Emperor’s trust.
The fact that the Jade Emperor could place an incarnation amongst the Heavenly Courts’ Heavenly Generals for tens of thousands of years meant that the Jade Emperor was not at ease with his subordinates. He had always been suspicious.
Of course, Li Changshou would not do something like that.
In fact, Li Changshou felt that he could not calculate everything. Sometimes, he could pretend to be muddle-headed and deliberately make mistakes. That was the safest way.
He felt that he should make the Jade Emperor feel that he was a minister who could be controlled. That would make it easier for him to accumulate merit later on.
Moreover…
“I have to be wary of this Jade Emperor.”
Li Changshou pondered quietly, but he did not have the time to slack.
A portion of the paper effigies had already returned to Anshui City and returned to the paper effigies’ “vault”. He could arrange for them to return to the Immortal Du Sect together after receiving the gifts from the dragon race.
On the other hand, on the side of Exalted Wang Qing…
Li Changshou made the paper effigy, who had been refining pills, stop the stove. He stood up and left the Pill Chamber. He rode a cloud towards Pill Tripod Peak.
I’ll ask Old Master Wan Linyun to step forward and see if Exalted Wang Qing is really in seclusion.
Wang Fugui is hiding now. How can junior Grandmaster not over-think?
Speaking of which, Little Grandmaster is fair-skinned, beautiful, and has a good personality. Even if she is somewhat inadequate, it’s not like no one wants her.
