My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 383 Although I’m Only A Turbid Immortal..

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother had gone to the mortal world. The members of the Heavenly Courts had nothing to do.

They recruited people to take on the Deity Positions, and took turns to sit in the Hall of Enlightenment.

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother had descended to the mortal world to undergo the tribulation and observe the suffering of all living beings. The authority of the Heavenly Courts had landed in the hands of Li Changshou and General Dongmu. The old brothers discussed for a while. General Dongmu suggested that the two of them take turns to guard the Hall of Enlightenment.

Li Changshou agreed immediately and took the initiative to suggest that he would assume the duration to be a hundred years. General Dongmu’s Deity Position was higher and he would preside over the Heavenly Courts for the first fifty years. Li Changshou’s Deity Position was lower and he would preside over for the next fifty years.

At the same time, Li Changshou forgot to tell General Dongmu that the lifespan of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother’s reincarnation in the Book of Life and Death seemed to be 66 years old...

However, it did not matter. General Dongmu would not care about such a small matter.

Li Changshou did not just want to slack off. He still had to be responsible for the security of the Jade Emperor and the reincarnation of the Queen Mother. He also had to monitor the movements of the demons and prevent them from taking the opportunity to cause trouble... He had many responsibilities and was quite busy. Apart from him and the ten Yama Lords, no one knew where the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother had reincarnated. Even if others wanted to plot against the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor, Li Changshou only needed to take action and “awaken” the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother. He could naturally let the two big shots be safe and sound.

The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother could even go to the Purple Cloud Palace to complain to the Dao Ancestor and give him double the joy...

Notably, there was another interesting phenomenon outside the Heavenly Courts. When the Heavenly Dao sent an auspicious sign, it was spread across the entire mortal world of the South Continent. Countless mortals witnessed the phenomena.

It was also the auspicious phenomena that caused chaos in the South Continent.

Many ambitious mortal ministers and generals who wanted to reach the peak of their lives were inspired by the auspicious sign.

There were all kinds of rumors like ‘the old emperor has lost his authority, a new emperor is to be appointed’, and ‘the heavens are proposing an auspicious sign and is suitable to send troops’... The mortal world of the South Continent had existed for a long time and the human race had been around for hundreds of thousands of years since the ancient times. However, humans were ignorant and they were the most afraid of strange phenomena and words.

Therefore, the appearance of such an auspicious sign did not indicate peace and tranquility. Instead, it made the Netherworld busy for decades...

Let’s get back to business.

After the wisp of the Queen Mother’s soul successfully entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Li Changshou and General Dongmu lined up at the Hall of Enlightenment and rushed to make arrangements for the safety of the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. Actually, even if he let a few paper effigies guard from afar, he did not dare to do anything unnecessary. If he were to set up an array formation and station Heavenly Soldiers, wouldn’t he be exposing himself?

Moreover, he was not interested in the dramatic life of the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor. Instead of worrying about the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother’s second love, he might as well think about how he should comfort the injured leader of the Heavenly Courts... “Huh?”

Why is this vixen here again?

Li Changshou frowned slightly. He looked at the two pregnant ladies in a large city in the South Continent and shifted his attention back to the Little Qiong Peak.

Master’s marriage... It is really a worrying mess. At the gate of the Immortal Du Sect, the vixen, who had changed into a light blue dress, was talking to the immortal guarding the gate. She had put on some light makeup today and tried her best to conceal her demonic aura. She exuded an indescribable elegant charm. The immortal guarding the gate could not let her enter as she pleased. Instead, he asked the patrolling disciples to go to the Little Qiong Peak and ask if Qi Yuan wanted to meet her. Qi Yuan thought about it carefully and rode a cloud outside the sect with some worries.

Is Master really interested? Li Changshou did not want to pry into others’ conversations, but that was too exciting... Ahem, it was purely because he was worried about his master’s safety!

For some reason, the vixen’s strength had already reached the mid-stage of the Heaven Immortal realm. Li Changshou was surprised by her speed of improvement.

Her potential was almost comparable to Youqin.

What if she were to use force on his master? As his disciple, he had to protect his master’s pure Dao Body!

Qi Yuan arrived at the gate on a cloud. Under the kind, gentle, and slightly teasing gazes of the old immortals guarding the gate, he lowered his head and left the gate. The vixen immediately bowed and shouted with a gentle smile, “Daoist Priest Qi Yuan!” “Fellow Daoist Lan.” Qi Yuan bowed and took the initiative to say, “Let’s go to the side and talk. This is an important place of the sect.” “Yes,” the vixen answered softly. She rode a cloud forward and invited Qi Yuan to ride with her.

Qi Yuan was a Turbid Immortal to begin with. At that moment, he did not feel embarrassed. He stood beside the vixen openly and took the initiative to be more than four feet away from her. His white eyebrows revealed a thoughtful expression.

The vixen blushed and stole glances from time to time.

Li Changshou’s paper effigy swam leisurely underground and observed the situation carefully... Uh, why do I suddenly feel that other than me, there’s someone else watching this place? Xiao Lan asked, “Daoist Priest, where are we going?” “Let’s find a beautiful place,” Qi Yuan said warmly. “After thinking about it, I still want to explain some things to you. Otherwise, my Dao heart will be discontented.” Xiao Lan could not help but feel a little anxious. She hurriedly said, “Daoist Priest, do you still think that I’m a demon...”

“No, it’s not about humans and demons.” Qi Yuan smiled and said, “The Water God from Ren School is right. In this world, what is opposing are not humans and demons, but good and evil. To be honest, I’m often a little stubborn. However, after I accepted two disciples, I gradually got over some things.” The vixen listened carefully. There was a hint of infatuation in her eyes as she kept those words deeply etched in her mind...

Underground, Li Changshou smiled when he heard that. In his heart, he recalled the scenes that he had experienced on the “Little Poor Peak” during his first hundred years of cultivation. The change in his master’s temperament was obtained by beating him up! However, when he first met his master, he clearly did not understand a certain scripture. However, his serious expression when he was teaching was indeed reminiscent...

Qi Yuan and the vixen rode a cloud to a hillside. There were light white spiritual trees and many harmless spiritual beasts and spiritual insects resting there.

The vixen had made meticulous preparations this time.

She got busy for a while. She set up a short table, an immortal blanket, and a few snacks that she had personally made. Then, she took out the fruit wine that was famous in the Qing Qiu clan. In fact, her posture of sitting with her jade-like feet together should have been practiced many times. It looked a little deliberate, but overall, it was quite beautiful.

Could it be that the Qing Qiu Clan offers training courses that are related to etiquette?

Qi Yuan sat obediently beside the short table and did not dare to look up. This time, he used his immortal power to seal his nose so that he would not embarrass himself again.

Then, the old Daoist priest and the vixen chatted in the shade.

The vixen was good at dancing. Today, she had also showcased a dance that she had meticulously prepared. She was less charming and more ethereal. It was obvious that she was doing it for Qi Yuan’s sake.

Unknowingly, two hours passed. He could tell that the old Daoist priest Qi Yuan was much calmer than the last time they were alone. He was also much calmer. There was a hint of contemplation in his eyes. He did not get immersed in her beauty again.

That was also because the vixen, Xiao Lan, had deliberately suppressed her charm today. After the dance, the vixen walked back to the short table with light steps and was about to speak timidly. Qi Yuan seemed to have made up his mind and raised his head to speak.

“Daoist Priest...”

“Fellow Daoist?”

The vixen hurriedly said, “Daoist Priest, please speak first.”

“Fellow Daoist, take a seat first.” Qi Yuan smiled. That smile was just like his expression when he was facing the Peak Leaders of other peaks in the sect. No matter how natural he wanted to look, he would always show some restraint. Xiao Lan combed a strand of hair by her ear and said softly, “Daoist Priest, are you trying to persuade me again?”

“Yes,” Qi Yuan answered honestly.

“Why...”

Seeing that Xiao Lan was a little anxious to tell him, Qi Yuan hurriedly said, “Fellow Daoist, don’t be anxious. Previously, you and I have become good friends. That’s why I wanted to tell you this today. Fellow Daoist, I want to say two things today. One of them is that I’m a Turbid Immortal. My path to immortality has come to an end. If my disciple had not been persuading me, I would have gone through reincarnation and reincarnated.” Xiao Lan bit her lower lip and said affectionately, “Be it an Earth Immortal or a Heaven Immortal, living beings are just taking a stroll in the world. I’m willing to serve you for the rest of your life.” “Fellow Daoist.” Qi Yuan blushed. “Don’t say that first. It might cause others to misunderstand something. The second matter...”

“Just say it, Daoist priest.”

Underground, Li Changshou smiled and knew what his master wanted to say. A few clouds appeared in the sky. It was drizzling, and there was a rustling sound in the forest.

Qi Yuan looked serious. He stared at Xiao Lan’s light brown eyes and said warmly, “Fellow Daoist, you’ve actually been mistaken.”

Xiao Lan was stunned.

Qi Yuan heaved a sigh of relief. “Indeed, it is much better to make things clear. Fellow Daoist, when you were trapped underground, the person who went to see you was not me. Instead, it was an... expert who looked like me. This expert did not want to be known. That was why he used the appearance of a Turbid Immortal like me, who did not move around much. Of course, that was also permitted by me. When you escaped and came to the Little Qiong Peak, that expert felt that you had caused trouble for me. Therefore, he used my appearance to agitate you, so that you would stop thinking about me... Ah, I didn’t expect... Fellow Daoist, that’s what happened. You’re not looking for me, but the person who looks like me.”

The vixen was completely stunned. At first, she frowned in confusion. Then, she lowered her head and pondered. Her face turned pale in disbelief. She was unwilling to believe the truth... “Daoist Priest, you’re lying to me, right?” “I’m not lying.” Qi Yuan smiled bitterly. “Fellow Daoist, look at my eyes. Do I have the same gaze as the Daoist priest in your heart? This cannot be faked.”

The vixen could not help but observe carefully. Then, she fell into a daze. “However, Daoist Priest, I, I only care about Qi Yuan and you’re the only one in my heart.” “Fake is ultimately fake. Fellow Daoist, you had been tricked.”

Qi Yuan said seriously, “I’ve been reading the sutra over the past few days and saw a sentence that means that the spirit of cultivation should not be judged by others. It should be judged by heart and soul. Illusion techniques, transformation techniques, and even some rouge powder of a woman can make one’s appearance extremely similar to the other. However, one’s Dao heart and personality would not change. Fellow Daoist, you have indeed looked for the wrong person. I would rather die than tell you who that expert is. Fellow Daoist, why don’t you put down your worries and focus on the Dao of longevity...” “Daoist Priest, don’t say anything.”

Xiao Lan slowly took half a step back, her eyes filled with confusion. “I’m a little confused. I want to be quiet for a while.”

Qi Yuan stood up and bowed deeply to the vixen.

“This matter will definitely cause you a lot of confusion. I can’t shirk my responsibility here,” Qi Yuan said. “If you don’t mind, I can be your friend in the future. However, please do not harbor any thoughts about marriage and Dao companions. Firstly, it is because it’s inappropriate. Secondly, it was because he did not mean it. Thirdly, it is because it was fake. How can I... Fellow Daoist, please forgive me if I have offended you in any way.” Xiao Lan’s eyes were a little red as she said in a low voice, “I’ll take my leave today. When I have a clear mind, I’ll definitely... give you an answer.”

Qi Yuan stood up and smiled warmly. He nodded slowly.

However, Xiao Lan lowered her head and turned around. She took two steps forward in a daze before stopping. She turned around and looked at Qi Yuan. Then, she rode a cloud and flew into the drizzle. Her dress was drenched and she gradually flew away. Qi Yuan tidied up the short table in front of him and took out a brand new treasure pouch. He put away the items and hung them on a tree branch.

Then, the old Daoist priest seemed to have recalled something. He looked around and pulled a long face. “Come out.”

Li Changshou squeezed out from the tree trunk 100 feet away. He smiled at his master and gave him a thumbs-up. “Master, I really admire you. You’re actually so magnanimous in front of a beauty!” “You had really been peeking!” Qi Yuan wanted to reprimand him with a stern expression, but he was amused by Li Changshou. He said with a smile, “You... Forget it. Follow me.” “Yes.” Li Changshou agreed and jumped to his master’s side. When he saw that his master had taken out his horsetail whisk, he took half a step back.

The drizzle was hazy, and the barrier formed by immortal power flickered with a faint glow. Li Changshou followed beside his master and felt like it was a lifetime ago. “Changshou.” “Ah, I’m here,” Li Changshou replied with his head lowered.

Qi Yuan wanted to say something but hesitated. After hesitating a few times, he said slowly, “I know that you have incredible Dharma powers, remarkable abilities, and you are working for the Saint of Ren School. You are authoritative in the Heavenly Courts.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Is that a good word? Is he praising his own disciple!?! Li Changshou hurriedly said, “Master, remember to bring that jade stone.” “I’m carrying it.” Qi Yuan opened his sleeve and tied the jade token to his arm. Qi Yuan smiled and said, “This matter concerns your safety. How can I forget? However, Changshou, there is something... Forget it. I might have been wrong.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Master, just teach me a lesson if you want to. I’ll listen.”

Qi Yuan sighed and said, “I just feel that my cultivation level and realm are far inferior to yours. I’m afraid that I might say something wrong and affect your Dao heart and cultivation. Disciple.” “Yes.”

Qi Yuan said slowly, “Your cultivation level is getting higher and higher, and the authority in your hands is also getting stronger. You can change the fate of most living beings at will. Is it because of this that you gradually lost your respect for others?” Li Changshou was stunned.

Qi Yuan continued, “If you had explained to Fellow Daoist Lan in the beginning, wouldn’t it have saved her so many years of longing and suffering? Wouldn’t it be much better than the way things are now? I’m not saying that I want to lecture you. Perhaps, it’s because my cultivation level is too low that I feel that way... Changshou, have you unintentionally decided the life and death of others? Do you think that it’s not a big deal? Karma and reincarnation are all preordained. If you ignore this karma, I’m afraid it will cause you some hidden dangers. I once heard a deceased Heaven Immortal lecture in the sect. That Uncle-Master told us not to bully the weak and not be afraid of the strong. Only then will we be an immortal of the human race.”

“Master... I didn’t...”

“Changshou.” Qi Yuan looked at Li Changshou and patted his shoulder. “I can no longer teach you cultivation. I don’t know as much as you do. However, I’m a little emotional about what happened to Xiao Lan.

In the past, I was most worried that you would take the wrong path. However, I have always felt that you have a sense of righteousness in your heart. It’s just that you don’t dare to express it and are used to being safe. Do you know why I took Ling’e back to the mountain back then?”

Li Changshou lowered his head and said, “I don’t know.”

“I originally thought that Ling’e was lively and I wanted her to influence. I didn’t expect her to have such outstanding potential... However, from the looks of it, I was indeed overthinking. Think about Fellow Daoist Lan carefully. It would be best if it can be beneficial to you in the future.”

Qi Yuan flicked his horsetail whisk and swept it across Li Changshou’s arm. “This is considered a punishment for you. Ah, you will be a big shot in the Heavenly Courts in the future. I can’t teach you a lesson casually.”

Qi Yuan put on a regretful expression and laughed. He condensed a cloud and headed towards the sect.

He felt rather comfortable.

“Respect... Karma...” Li Changshou muttered to himself and stood in the rain for a long time. At some point in time, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and the drizzle gradually stopped. Birds chirped in the forest, and the breeze was accompanied by the fragrance of flowers. Beams of sunlight shone through the gaps in the forest.

He suddenly heard a chuckle and a cool breeze.

“What’s wrong? Did you get reprimanded by your master?”

Li Changshou suddenly turned around and looked at the tree not far away. He saw the foot-long ray of light, followed by the fairy standing under the tree with her hands behind her back.
