My Senior Brother is Too Steady - Chapter 430

Chapter 430: Embarrassing Truth Listener

At the edge of the East Ocean, a stream of light flew over quickly. It stopped at the edge of the world, which was not a famous place for Dao companions to play cards.

Dressed in a blue Daoist robe, the young man’s face was disguised. His slender figure was slightly thin, as if he was confirming the words that he often said, “The Heavenly Courts’ officials are not good at fighting.”

It was naturally Li Changshou’s main body.

The Grand Pure One is watching a small movie… Ahem!

The Grand Pure One reminded him to immediately rush over to meet up with the other disciples of the Saint. Then, they would rush to the edge of the trichiliocosm to deal with the extraterrestrial demons.

The otherworldly demons barged into the Heavenly Dao’s order and rushed into the small world.

In terms of causing trouble, those guys were very professional. They directly entered the local living beings and mixed into the Dao hearts of the Qi Refinement cultivators, thus avoiding the slash of the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder.

At that moment, the Heavenly Dao had already sealed the Small World and sent a warning to the Saint. The Saint had sent his disciples to gather at the ends of the East Ocean.

Li Changshou came on behalf of Ren School. After all, other than him, Ren School only had two children, a cow, and… a burning old goat.

As soon as Li Changshou arrived, several streams of light flew out of the East Ocean.

He turned around and the first person he saw was that beautiful figure. He could not help but reveal a gentle smile. Then, he swept his gaze over and frowned deeper.

When the Saint chose people, the Saint of Jie School could predict that the human sect would produce the Heavenly Courts’ Water God, the Cosmic Ruler, and the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda. There was no need for him to calculate.

Therefore, he sent Fairy Yun Xiao to give the two of them more opportunities to interact…

Yes, that was the Grandmaster of Heaven.

The other disciples of the Saint who were not important were also experts who were familiar with Li Changshou. At the very least, they had worked together to form a friendship with him.

Daoist Duobao was ranked first among the treasures of the three sects and had the ability to bear a hole in the ground to suppress the tombs of the experts of the past and present.

Among the eight disciples of Jie School, Zhao Gongming, who was the most active and was known as the Little Timely Rain of the Primordial World, was Master Zhao.

There was also the combination of an expert in the Yin-Yang language of Chan School and a taciturn person—Perfected Taiyi and Perfected Yu Ding.

However, when the five experts from the Dao Sect arrived, Li Changshou, who had a black face, and the five disciples of the Saints, who had different expressions, looked at the young Daoist who was riding a green-furred dog and did not dare to land on the island.

The young Daoist priest had a handsome face and an awkward smile on his lips. The green-furred dog beneath him kept trembling. The face of the beast that was originally quite mighty was filled with fear…

Ksitigarbha of the Western Sect.

Daoist Duobao snapped his fingers and held two conch-shaped Connate numinous treasures in his hands.

The immortals from the Dao Sect could immediately hear the conversation between Ksitigarbha and his mount in their hearts.

“It’s over. If I’m not afraid, what are you afraid of? We’re here on Teacher’s orders to do good for the world!”

“Master, can’t you go over yourself? Can’t you give me a few days off? You are the disciple of a Saint. They will not kill you because they care about the pride of a Saint. However, I am an innocent mutated beast that you schemed against. In the past, the Water God would not skin me alive…

They have already taken out the blame! What can the Water God not do? Don’t you know how dirty his methods are?

The role model of us beasts, Senior Bai Ze, is not his match!”

Ksitigarbha cursed, “That’s the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice! Quickly go over. Otherwise, if Fairy Yun Xiao attacks, we will all be gone! That ruthless person… Do you know how many Connate mighty figures she killed in ancient times? The Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice can be traced back to the origin. If a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal falls in, he can be reduced into a Golden Immortal!”

“I was the one who told Master that… Seriously! Master, why do you have to fight for this job…”

Amidst his complaints, Truth Listener’s body trembled as it slowly carried Ksitigarbha forward.

Ksitigarbha smiled. There was a faint light in his eyes. He exuded a peaceful and benevolent aura. He looked dignified and had an outstanding temperament.

“Ha!”

Perfected Taiyi could not help but laugh. He turned around and shrugged.

On the island, Fairy Yun Xiao, who was originally standing beside Li Changshou, revealed a gentle smile.

Zhao Gongming immediately took a step forward and was about to activate the twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls.

Daoist Duobao sent a voice transmission. “Junior Brother, Junior Sister, it’s not appropriate to kill Ksitigarbha on such an occasion.”

Zhao Gongming nodded and said, “I’ve troubled the two Uncle-Masters of the Western Sect. The three sects of our Dao Sect are enough to deal with the Outer Demons’ crisis this time. There’s no need for you to take action.”

Ksitigarbha said calmly, “Although the Western Sect is poor, we have the intention to protect the Primordial World. Daoist Brother, please don’t make things difficult for us.”

Daoist Duobao thought for a while and said with a smile, “Uncle-Masters, you still have to care about your pride. This…”

“I’m Ksitigarbha.” Ksitigarbha smiled on Truth Listener’s back. “Greetings, Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters.”

Yun Xiao calmly put away the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice. Li Changshou smiled and looked at Truth Listener’s dodging beast eyes.

Perfected Taiyi clicked his tongue and said, “Don’t call us that. Just call us Fellow Daoists. We don’t dare to call you guys our Junior Brothers or Junior Sisters. You might say that our Cave Abode’s treasure vault is fated with your Western Sect.”

Ksitigarbha felt a little awkward.

Daoist Duobao was the most senior there. At that moment, he called out, “The situation is urgent. Come with me first.”

At that moment, Daoist Duobao drew circles with his fingers. A hole appeared in the sky and spread towards an unknown place.

Fairy Yun Xiao lifted a white cloud and carried Li Changshou and Zhao Gongming to follow.

Perfected Yu Ding also lifted a white cloud and followed closely behind with Perfected Taiyi.

Ksitigarbha was impressive. As Truth Listener’s four hooves were trembling and it could not move, he could only use his immortal power to wrap around Truth Listener. Then, he could “calmly” ride the beast forward.

Just as they flew into the cave, Truth Listener and Ksitigarbha heard laughter in front of them…

Li Changshou said, “Senior Brother Duobao, your hole seems to be able to isolate the universe. I wonder if the Saint can see through it.”

Truth Listener immediately trembled a few times. Ksitigarbha’s expression became gloomy.

Fortunately, Daoist Duobao smiled and said, “I really haven’t tried that. However, I don’t think I can avoid it. The Saint has already jumped out of the Great Dao. His various mystical abilities are unimaginable.”

The two Western spirits heaved a sigh of relief.

The underground hole of Duobao had the ability to let them cross the universe. Their speed when they were flying in front of the cave was not considered fast. Otherwise, with Ksitigarbha’s foot strength, he might not be able to keep up.

Ksitigarbha could not speak further. At that moment, he only followed quietly and waited for his presence to increase.

Ksitigarbha indeed had some guts to participate in this matter.

It was also because the otherworldly demons were the enemies of the Primordial World and living beings. The operation this time was due to an order by the Heavenly Dao to remove some hidden dangers for the world. More experts were required to go and it was mandatory for the great sects in the world to attend too.

If they were to fight among themselves over this matter, they would definitely be punished by the Heavenly Dao and the Saint would not be happy.

Ksitigarbha admitted that he was also taking a gamble.

After all, he could not guarantee that the Water God would not even give him a chance to speak before killing him.

However, Ksitigarbha soon realized that he, or Truth Listener, could not threaten the Water God much.

Ever since the Water God appeared on Bai Ze, Truth Listener had never mentioned anything about the Water God…

Suddenly, they heard another discussion in front of them. The six disciples of the Three Dao Sects were already standing on the same cloud and chatting.

Daoist Duobao asked, “Has Changgeng been worried about the demons recently?”

“I’m not worried. I’m just waiting for the Jade Emperor to return from the tribulation before attacking the demons.”

Li Changshou sighed. “The Heavenly Courts have been established for so many years. The Jade Emperor has been waiting for a huge battle to show his might to the Heavenly Courts. I can’t do everything.”

“Hahaha!”

Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and laughed. He said, “Uncle-Master Jade Emperor is also a straightforward person. To be able to obtain your help, Changgeng, there are no weaklings around!”

That was the elementary level of the Yin-Yang language. It was just ear-piercing to a certain Western disciple.

Perfected Taiyi scoffed. “Speaking of which, those demons were actually schemed to death by Changgeng, a third-rank legitimate god. They are really useless.”

It was a high-level Yin-Yang language. Ksitigarbha’s expression darkened. Fairy Yun Xiao frowned and looked at Perfected Tai Yi.

Li Changshou squinted slightly and smiled. “Senior Brother Taiyi, don’t underestimate the factions that are going against the Heavenly Courts. They can’t be defeated with just a few words.”

Perfected Yu Ding nodded slightly. “Junior Brother Changgeng is right.”

Perfected Taiyi rolled his eyes. Thinking about the fact that Ling Zhuzi was learning from Li Changshou and enjoying himself every year, he endured it.

When Perfected Yu Ding’s words landed in Ksitigarbha’s ears, he sighed in his heart.

The Water God had actually merged the three sects together?

If that is the case, he would really be the enemy of the Western Sect…

Even Fairy Yun Xiao had to fly for a few days to reach Daoist Duobao’s cave. However, it was shortened to half a day.

When the hole was dug out of the thunder curtain of the small world, Daoist Duobao and Zhao Gongming went forward to investigate the situation and asked the others to wait in the hole.

Ksitigarbha jumped down from Truth Listener and walked forward. The faint light around him illuminated the dark cave.

Fairy Yun Xiao and Li Changshou were standing at the end of the hole.

Li Changshou placed his hands behind his back. Fairy Yun Xiao folded her hands in front of her. The two of them were talking about some interesting things.

When Li Changshou mentioned that there was a problem with the Jade Emperor’s clay figurine in the Hall of Marriage, Yun Xiao was entranced…

Ksitigarbha walked straight to Li Changshou and bowed with his head lowered. Then, he raised his head and smiled.

“Water God, greetings.”

Li Changshou paused and smiled apologetically at Fairy Yun Xiao. He looked at Ksitigarbha helplessly.

Perfected Taiyi, who was at the side, folded his arms and clicked his tongue in wonder.

“Could this be the legendary mutual appreciation between rivals? Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha, could it be that you can’t bear to see the two of you improving your relationship with each other and are standing out to cause trouble?”

Ksitigarbha frowned and said, “Am I disturbing you?”

“A little.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, do you have anything to do?”

Ksitigarbha smiled and said, “In the world, we stand opposite each other. Previously, after we fought across space several times, I respected the Water God. I would like to compare the fact that I can deal with the otherworldly demons with the Water God today. Let’s see who has the most credit today. How about that?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, with Truth Listener’s help, you can easily distinguish the thoughts of living beings. You will definitely win.”

“Ahem, ahem!”

In the corner of the cave, Truth Listener took two steps forward while trembling. It coughed weakly and spoke in human language.

“Little Beast’s old injuries have relapsed. It can’t move anymore. Master… take care. I’m afraid I can’t help you in the battle with the Water God…”

Crash!

Truth Listener’s twenty-feet-long body lay in the hole. It held its breath and focused. The immortal light on its body became stronger and weaker.

Ksitigarbha was speechless. Perfected Taiyi could not help but laugh. Fairy Yun Xiao’s eyes were filled with smiles.

Li Changshou said seriously, “Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha, we are here to protect the world. We should not compare ourselves. We will do our best. Being competitive is not the way to solve the problem. Moreover, you and I will not change our stands because of this matter. There’s no need to have too much interaction.”

After saying that, Li Changshou cupped his hands and turned around to continue chatting with Yun Xiao via voice transmission.

Ksitigarbha smiled and nodded. He turned around and walked back to Truth Listener’s side. When he saw Truth Listener lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, he almost could not help but kick it.

Li Changshou swept his gaze over. Truth Listener trembled and hurriedly sat up. Its dignified face was filled with innocence and harmlessness.

Ksitigarbha cursed in his heart. “What are you afraid of!?!”

“Master, the Water God has the scent of Senior Bai Ze. It will be easy for Senior Bai Ze to plot against us. Now that Senior Bai Ze and the Water God have joined forces, no one can do anything unless the Saint takes action. Is pride more important than our lives? The Water God might not really want to kill you, Master, but I heard from Senior Bai Ze that he really wants to kill me.”

“Hmph.” Ksitigarbha snorted coldly and sat quietly beside Truth Listener.

At that moment, Daoist Duobao and Zhao Gongming returned through the hole.

Zhao Gongming said, “Changgeng, I’ve investigated the situation in the Minor Chiliocosm. There are many living beings there. They also know that the otherworldly demons have sneaked in. They are not panicking. However, living beings that have their Dao hearts invaded by the otherworldly demons are not much different from ordinary living beings. It is indeed a little troublesome.”

Daoist Duobao also said, “There are many living beings here. They are all experts who had once guarded the Xuandu City. If we can protect their lives, we still have to protect them.”

Li Changshou asked, “Is the Xuandu City far from here?”

“There’s no such thing as far or near.” Zhao Gongming smiled and said, “We can find an opening in the place where the power of the Heavenly Dao is the weakest. The Xuandu City is suppressed on this opening.”

“That’s good,” Li Changshou said. “What we have to do today is to destroy or expel the otherworldly demons. I have never dealt with such an enemy before, and I don’t dare to give any random advice. Senior Brother Duobao, please take charge of the situation.”

Duobao looked at Perfected Taiyi and Perfected Yu Ding.

Perfected Taiyi smiled and said, “Senior Brother Duobao, just deal with it. The two of us will listen at any time.”

Perfected Yu Ding nodded slightly.

“Alright.” Daoist Duobao smiled warmly and said, “What we have to do next is to find the whereabouts of the otherworldly demons. Most of the people possessed by the otherworldly demons have dark circles under their eyes… Changgeng, do you have any good ideas? It’s really troublesome to look for them one by one. There are indeed many living beings here.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha’s mount can be used here. Perhaps that’s the main reason why the two Saints of the Western Sect sent Fellow Daoist Ksitigarbha here.”

“Oh?” Duobao raised his eyebrows and asked deliberately, “How should I use it?”

Perfected Taiyi clicked his tongue and smiled. “It’s naturally impossible to use its essence soul to refine it into a Dharma artifact.”

Truth Listener immediately trembled.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “What Senior Brother Taiyi said is quite useful. However, let Truth Listener explain it.”

“Yes…”

Swoosh!

Ksitigarbha, who was sitting at the side, felt a gust of wind sweep past. The divine beast that was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead turned into a ray of green light. At a speed that Ksitigarbha had never seen before, it appeared in front of Li Changshou.

The mighty divine beast shrunk and sat on the ground, rubbing its head gently against Li Changshou’s leg.

“Water God, please make arrangements. We are best at listening to the hearts of all living beings.”

Ksitigarbha’s eyes gradually lost their luster. He took out an iron pot from his sleeve and snapped his fingers. He lit some firewood below…
