My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 246 The Bragging I’ve Done Before, Today...

I was wrong. I was really wrong.

Li Changshou looked at the old man in front of him and did not know whether to laugh or cry.

He had long thought that Master Zhao Gongming would overcome all difficulties and come to join in the fun. However, he still had hopes that he would be lucky. He felt that if he did not invite him, Master Zhao might be concerned about his pride and hence...

In fact, Li Changshou even made some rough calculations.

When the dozens of immortals from Jie School said that they wanted to join in the fun, Li Changshou thought that the news might reach Master Zhao’s ears. He deliberately chose not to invite them because he wanted to stop their “old friendship” from developing further.

Unexpectedly, Master Zhao valued their friendship so much that he came uninvited!

“Master, ahem, Senior, please take a seat.”

Li Changshou sighed and said, “It’s not just you whom I did not invite, Senior. It’s mainly because it’s not a big deal. You are the eldest outer sect disciple of Jie School. How can I trouble you to appear because of this celebration? Wouldn’t I be disrespecting you by doing so, Senior?” “Oh?” Zhao Gongming blinked. He stroked his beard and asked with a smile, “Is that so?”

“Of course.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “To me, you are very important, Senior!”

Zhao Gongming smiled and shook his head. “You definitely trained yourself to have a glib tongue!”

Fortunately, he did not say that I had been blessed...

After saying that, Li Changshou invited Zhao Gongming to sit on the round chair beside him.

A burly man immediately ran over to serve tea. That was also a specialty of the Sea God Sect.

“Brother, what is your celebration for?”

Zhao Gongming held his teacup and asked. His immortal senses swept across the South Ocean Coast and saw the gathering crowd. “It’s probably not easy to invite the immortals of the three sects to attend such a celebration.”

Li Changshou was a little wary...

Why is Master Zhao acting strangely today?

He could tell that it did not seem like his usual character.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Please allow me to keep you in suspense about this. There are indeed some matters today that are related to what I have been planning. Therefore, I want to invite the immortals of the three sects to attend the ceremony and use this to increase the weight of this matter. It will affect the dragon race more.”

Li Changshou smiled bitterly and shook his head. “Senior, I’m afraid you will scare the dragon race.”

“Uh, this...”

Zhao Gongming was in a dilemma. He whispered, “Why don’t I sneak back?”

“How can you leave after showing up?” Li Changshou hurriedly continued, “With you here today, I feel much more at ease, Senior. I’m not afraid of any trouble.”

Zhao Gongming straightened his back when he heard that. “Don’t worry. I’ll see who dares to mess with you and ruin your parade today!”

However, Zhao Gongming changed his tone and said seriously, “Brother, you keep calling me senior. Isn’t that too distant?”

“Senior, this... Forget it. I’ll be thick-skinned and call you Brother Zhao.”

“Hahahaha!”

Zhao Gongming clapped his hands and laughed. “Brother Sea God! Among the immortals of the three sects, you are the one who suits my taste the most!”

Li Changshou was speechless.

If this goes on, will I become sworn siblings with him?

Fortunately, one of the things that Li Changshou was best at was changing the topic.

He asked about Zhao Gongming’s recent situation and asked if there were any Western Sect experts who had made things hard for him. He then diverted the topic to calligraphy. Zhao Gongming was instantly interested. He agreed to compete with Li Changshou in calligraphy. The two of them set up the table and spread out the cloth. One had a magnificent calligraphy style while the other had a smooth style.

At that moment, a cheerful burst of laughter sounded in the rear hall of the Sea God Temple. It really sounded like they were confidantes.

Zhao Gongming suddenly smiled and said, “Senior Brother Huang Long is here too?” As soon as he finished speaking, a streak of yellow light flashed across the night sky. A tall and thin figure had already landed in front of the door. He was dressed in a light yellow robe and had a Dao hairpin on his head. Although he looked old, there were no wrinkles on his face. He could be considered to have a youthful face and white hair.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “I naturally have to inform Senior Huang Long about the matter regarding the dragon race.”

“That’s right. It’s appropriate for you to think that way,” Zhao Gongming replied with a smile. He walked forward to welcome Li Changshou. He was more like the host than Li Changshou.

Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Master Zhao did not lie down and question him by saying, “Why didn’t you invite me since you invited him? Are you looking down on me?!”

The thought of that scene made Li Changshou feel vexed.

Once Perfected Huang Long arrived, the rear hall became even livelier.

However, after a while, a white cloud came from the southeast. There were a lot of people on it. There were about sixty to seventy of them!

Li Changshou only recognized three of the six immortals at the front. One of them was Qin Wan, Heavenly Lord Qin, one was the Goddess of Golden Light, who had arrived last time, and the other was Bai Li, one of the Ten Heavenly Lords, whom he had seen in the Dragon Palace.

There was also a female immortal. She was slender and dressed in a fiery-red dress. If he was not wrong, she should be the Goddess of Fire Spirit whom Ao Yi had mentioned...

Are the immortals of Jie School really that free?

Or is it the custom of Golden Ao Island, where everyone agrees to a free meal and accepts the bill?

The corners of Li Changshou’s mouth twitched slightly. He immediately revealed a sincere smile and took two steps forward. He rode a cloud out to welcome them.

Zhao Gongming cleared his throat and walked to the rear hall. He stood with his hands behind his back and revealed a faint smile.

When Perfected Huang Long saw that, he pondered for a while before turning to the corner of the rear hall. He took out a jade token and whispered something to it. Li Changshou had been paying attention to them, but he could only vaguely hear...

“Yes, Junior Brother, get a few more of them. Many people from Jie School are here... Yes, yes, we can’t weaken the authority of our Jade Void Palace... Alright, alright, hurry up...

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Do you want to compete in this too?

It was fine if it was the Three Sects’ Meet. After all, it was a grand occasion for the Three Sects. Both the Jie School and Chan School did not give in to each other. It was reasonable for them to want to suppress each other.

Today, he, the Sect Master of an incense merit sect was the one holding a celebration. Would it be appropriate for waves of immortals from both sides to show up?

Ahem, ‘a wave’ is a collective noun here.

Li Changshou sighed in his heart. Since things had come to this, he could only hurriedly ask the immortals from Jie School to enter the Sea God Temple.

The immortals of Jie School were shocked when they saw Zhao Gongming. They hurriedly bowed and the scene became extremely lively.

Li Changshou even specially observed the Goddess of Golden Light and realized that that girl was very adorable. She looked at Master Zhao with bright eyes.

However, the Goddess of Golden Light did not say anything. She simply addressed him as Senior Brother Zhao and followed her elder brother, Qin Wan, to the side to take a seat.

Li Changshou went out to greet them. Immediately, a group of burly men moved chairs over and brought fragrant tea over. Although the immortals from Jie School did not know what was going on today, they all congratulated Li Changshou after seeing him.

Li Changshou had no choice but to just thank them.

Not long after, the village chief of Xiong Village and the First Elder of the Sea God Sect rushed over and whispered, “Sir, just now, Third Brother used a communication jade token to report to us that a group of troops had gone to the village. Their bodies are filled with Yin energy. There are a few people leading them. They seem to be powerful people who have some ties with our village.”

“How powerful?” “Third Brother Xiong said that he has a very strong feeling.”

Li Changshou closed his eyes slightly. The paper effigy hiding under Xiong Village had already used his immortal senses to look at the group of people. Li Changshou recognized the first person. It was Ox-head of the Netherworld who had removed his headgear.

“Those are people from the Netherworld, a branch of your ancestors.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “They have indeed gone to your village. According to my previous instructions, ask Third Brother to guide them and bring them to Anshui City as soon as possible. In another four hours, the ceremony will begin.”

“Ah, okay. I’ll go now!” The old village chief agreed and was about to relay the message when Li Changshou stopped him.

Li Changshou deliberated for a while and said, “There are a lot of guests today. It’s better for the ceremony to be livelier. Arrange for all the songs and dances that have been removed previously to be performed from sunrise to noon.”

“Okay!”

The old village chief, who was like a black bear spirit, left in a hurry. Li Changshou could not stay idle and continued to entertain the guests.

This time, it was different from Ao Yi’s wedding that happened at the Dragon Palace. This was his home ground. He could not neglect those “distinguished guests ” although many of them came uninvited...

Two hours later, more than twenty immortals from Chan School arrived on a cloud that floated over from the north-west direction.

The journey should have been as fast as lightning, as it caused the hair of a few Heaven Immortals from the Jade Void Palace, who had lower cultivation levels, to be all messed up.

Li Changshou was familiar with the two people taking the lead. One of them was the Golden Immortal Yun Zhongzi, and the other was Chi Jingzi who was ranked second among the twelve Golden Immortals. They were both big shots from Chan School.

Before Li Changshou could fly, Zhao Gongming had already led a few immortals from Jie School to welcome him.

Everyone was secretly competing with each other. On the surface, they still had to be amiable and respond with the phrase— ‘The three sects are one family.’.

The rear hall of the Sea God Sect was almost full of people.

The immortals of the two sects exchanged greetings and then sat down separately.

Li Changshou felt that he could no longer control the situation...

However, he could not invite the Great Daoist Master over now, could he?

If I can’t control the situation and ask the Great Daoist Master for help, wouldn’t I show that I’m doing things poorly...

As he thought about that, a voice transmission suddenly entered Li Changshou’s heart.

“Changshou, where did your main body go? I searched twice in the Immortal Du Sect, but why did I not find it?”.

Li Changshou was shocked!

Speak of the devil!

His relative had arrived!

Li Changshou hurriedly pointed at his chest and looked around. He did not know how to reply. “As expected of you! Hahaha! You actually hid in your incarnation! I didn’t expect it, I really didn’t expect it!

The Great Daoist Master laughed and asked, “I see that you have invited many experts from the Dao Sect. Do you still need me to appear today? If you need, nod.”

Li Changshou nodded immediately.

A chuckle spread in the Sea God Sect’s rear hall. The rear hall, which was originally filled with laughter, instantly quietened down.

Zhao Gongming pinched his fingers to calculate and was the first to stand up. He said happily, “Senior Brother Xuan Du is here!”

Just as Zhao Gongming finished speaking, a few clouds suddenly appeared in the backyard. A faint Taiji shadow appeared in the clouds, and a figure in a long robe walked out.

Look at his slender figure and long hair. His face is ordinary, and if one were to scrutinize him, there would be an endless, lingering charm. He also has the charm of freedom. It’s rare for him to have the true intention of being unfettered!

“Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, how have you been?”

The moment the Eldest Senior Brother of the Dao Sect appeared, everyone present became junior brothers and junior sisters.

“Senior Brother Xuan Du!”

“It’s Senior Brother Xuan Du!”

“Senior Brother, why are you here?”

Great Daoist Master Xuan Du smiled elegantly. When he was alone with Li Changshou, he seemed to have become a different person. He became more refined and easy-going.

Li Changshou saw that the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was about to speak and immediately sent a voice transmission. “Great Daoist Master, the Sea God of the South Ocean’s incarnation is known as Changgeng.” The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “Since it’s something important to Changgeng, I naturally have to come. I have to thank all my junior brothers and junior sisters for coming to attend the ceremony. If you have encountered any poor hospitality, please forgive me.

The Ren School has few people to begin with. In the future, Changgeng will be traveling outside. I hope that everyone can take care of him.”

Changgeng?

The immortals were confused at first. Then, they saw Li Changshou bow and suddenly realized something.

Is the Sea God’s background that powerful?

The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du was very particular about his choice of words. By saying those words, it meant that he was the host.

The Sea God Sect is established by Ren School!

The Sea God of the South Ocean, Daoist Changgeng, must have a strong relationship with the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du. He might be the junior of Ren School whom the Grand Pure One valued!

In an instant, the immortals from Jie School and Chan School, who were originally there to join in the fun, immediately wanted to befriend him.

Great Daoist Master Xuan Du gave Li Changshou a meaningful look, as if he was asking, “How is it?”

Li Changshou gave the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du a grateful and emotional look, as if he was saying, “You’re the best.”

Everything that he had boasted about previously had come true today!

Li Changshou was thinking about the event of today. How could he let the Western Sect know clearly? It would be best if he could let the other party see all the details...

At that moment, Li Changshou invited the Great Daoist Master to sit in the main seat and personally arranged for him to use the ‘Cloud Ascension Platform’ later. The so-called Ascension Platform was also the immortals’ observatory that Li Changshou had previously prepared. It was a white cloud with a wooden frame supporting it. There were Cloud-forming Talismans and suspended talismans engraved on it. In order to prevent any mishaps, there were dozens of layers of reinforcement methods.

Li Changshou had previously prepared two Cloud Platforms and four backups. He thought that they would be enough.

However, when he saw Perfected Huang Long and Zhao Gongming take out their communication jade token to start the second wave of inviting people, Li Changshou smiled helplessly in his heart. He activated a few paper effigies and began to create a new cloud platform. Li Changshou had just settled down and was about to return to his room to accompany the Great Daoist Master when he suddenly heard a dragon’s roar from the sky. A clear cry sounded from the sky.

“Brother Sect Master!”

The first wave of guests from the Dragon Palace had arrived!

However, Ao Yi landed in the backyard excitedly. He lifted the hem of his long robe and leaped over excitedly!

“I’m here... Eh?”

Ao Yi caught sight of the guests in the hall from the corner of his eyes. His smile froze and his legs went weak. He almost fell in front of Li Changshou.
