My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 412 “For Nothing”

“Fellow Daoist Water God, after thinking for three days, I feel that... What you said previously is wrong. The demons are not human, and the two cannot be considered the same. The demons are an alliance formed by the Ten Thousand Spirit Alliance. They do not share the same race or the same race. I am also a Connate lifeform. How can I betray the demons today? Indeed, under the Heavenly Dao, I am still a demon. I have indeed been unlucky in Lu Ya’s matter, but I have never betrayed him! I felt that your words made sense when I first heard them three days ago. They indeed broke my defense. However, they were really sophistry. I secretly thought about it and realized that they included too much about the demons. It was an unfair victory! Why don’t we talk about the matter regarding the demons back then and who the famous warriors of the Primordial World are? I helped the Demon God control all the races and escaped unscathed. Although there was no lack of schemes and evil deeds in the process, I still managed to let the thousands of races escape the fate of being eaten by the Magi. I’m morally upright. I do not feel guilty for pushing the demons out to help the Heavenly Courts, Lu Ya, and myself. “

Li Changshou, who was holding a few treasure pouches beside the pool on the Black Pool Peak, smiled when he heard Bai Ze’s words.

Bai Ze is indeed harder to deceive than those old masters who can watch from afar... Li Changshou naturally understood the logic behind Bai Ze’s words today. When he had discussed that with Saint Nuwa previously, the discussion was much deeper.

However, arguing was unreasonable to begin with. Today, Bai Ze had challenged him to a battle. Li Changshou naturally would not show any signs of fear.

Doesn’t everyone prepare for battle for three days?

When Bai Ze spent three days thinking about the loopholes in Li Changshou’s previous words and his arguments, Li Changshou was thinking about what to say today. The beginning of the attack was to communicate with each other. To deal with a figure like Bai Ze, he had to have enough conflicting thoughts. Just the restrictions of his essence soul and the Heavenly Dao oath were only to make him obey on the surface. If he really needed to use Bai Ze in the future, he would not have to use his full strength. It would not be considered breaking the Heavenly Dao oath...

Li Changshou took out a pile of precious materials from his treasure pouch and smiled. “Mr. Bai, why don’t you work with me today and create an abode and kitchen? Let’s talk about the demons slowly.” “Alright.” Bai Ze smiled and did not argue about that matter. Although he felt carefree, he was more eager to try and wait for Li Changshou’s debate today. Not long after, the man and the auspicious beast began to get busy. Bai Ze rolled up his sleeves and Li Changshou took out the paper effigy. He found the foundation and cleared the weeds before starting to build a small building

Bai Ze smiled and said, “Compared to a Cave Abode made of mystical abilities and Dharma spells, this is more peaceful for my Dao heart.” Li Changshou casually threw out the topic of the day. “Mr. Bai, why don’t we talk about whether there’s a chance to salvage the situation when the demons are divided and fallen?”

“This time, I will not be knocked unconscious by your punches like last time.”

“You and I are just discussing matters.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Senior should know best about what happened back then. I’ll let you choose. Do you think that the demons could be saved back then?”

Bai Ze pondered for a while and said, “Yes.”

“Then I can’t be saved.” Li Changshou pressed the round log in his hand into the ground and dug the pit at the back. “Sir, please.” “Ahem! The disadvantage of the demons in the past was not that there were too many races and they were too scattered. Instead, it was that the pressure given by the Magi was insufficient. The Magi only hunted and did not treat the demons as enemies... Although in the eyes of the Magi, food is not worthy to be called an enemy...” Hence, on the Black Pool Peak, the man and the auspicious beast, who had been away for three days, spoke again. Before Li Changshou arrived, he was fully prepared. To be safe, he had prepared both the positive and negative opinions. He easily captured some loopholes in Bai Ze’s words and immediately counterattacked, gradually bringing Bai Ze into his own rhythm. After building a simple pavilion, Li Changshou once again made Bai Ze unable to retort. He also made Bai Ze feel that something was amiss...

Li Changshou smiled and bade farewell. He agreed to visit the peak in three days. Bai Ze paced around the pool for another three days. On the third day, his eyes lit up and he figured out what was going on.

Then, he was eager to try and wait for Li Changshou to “fight”!

On the Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou leisurely dealt with the trivial matters of the Heavenly Courts and looked at the situation of the demons. He was concerned about the changes in the black leopard’s personality and looked at the operation of the nursing home in Anshui City. Then, he prepared the next question and argument. When it was time, he went to look for Bai Ze. That should be the most difficult living being that Li Changshou had encountered since his debut in the Primordial World. He had to admit that Li Changshou did have the intention to subdue Bai Ze and make the latter help him willingly. He naturally did not want to use Bai Ze as his advisor, nor did he need such an advisor...

Isn’t the Merit Golden Body about to be formed?

The Great God-Conferment Tribulation was around the corner. After the Great God-Conferment Tribulation, he had to consider retirement after saving the person he wanted to save. He wanted Bai Ze to be the Jade Emperor’s shadow advisor. Moreover, Bai Ze was always restrained by Ren School and would not do anything that would cause chaos. It could be considered Li Changshou’s final contribution to the Jade Emperor. Although he felt that it would not be easy for him to escape from the Heavenly Courts, Li Changshou would be more confident when facing the Great God-Conferment Tribulation if he could get Bai Ze to submit as soon as possible. At the very least, when they could trust each other, Li Changshou could bring out scattered plans for Bai Ze to review and let Bai Ze point out the flaws and imperfections in them for him. He could make full use of Bai Ze’s mystical abilities to avoid harm. He had to persist in the debate and the psychological attack.

Just like that...

He repeated it several times.

It went up to 180 rounds. About a year and a half later, Bai Ze finally regained his senses. After being fooled by Li Changshou again, he saw that Li Changshou was about to leave. Bai Ze stood up amidst the mess of cups and plates and shouted, “Water God! Can you give me the debate question in three days so that I can be prepared!?!” Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

If I let you prepare, won’t it be difficult for me next time?

However, he had already completed 70% of the mental attack. The difficulty had increased, which was within Li Changshou’s expectations. Li Changshou smiled calmly and took out a scroll.

Not only did he give him the next topic, but he also gave him the topics for the next hundred debates. That shocked Bai Ze and made him admire Li Changshou.

It was probably... Although I know that the Water God is scheming and cunning, I still feel that he is the only soulmate I have met since I was born.

In the dead of the night, Bai Ze sat in the pavilion and cooked two dishes that he liked. He took out the fine wine that Li Changshou had given him and held a bamboo slip. He began to read it carefully under the light of the spiritual pearl. Not long after, Bai Ze raised his wine glass and saluted the Little Qiong Peak. In the corner of the Pill Chamber of Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou looked at the sutra in front of him and smiled...

“Brother!”

Ling’e floated over from outside the Pill Chamber with a bowl of soup porridge. “Are you thinking about your debate with Mr. Bai again?”. Li Changshou picked up the jade bowl and tasted it. He smiled and said, “I’ve brought you to listen from the side more than ten times. Do you have any thoughts?”

“Senior Brother, you are obsessed with Mr. Bai.”

“Huh?”

“Ahem, ahem! Mr. Bai is indeed an ancient and wise mighty figure. He can argue with you so well. He has been at a disadvantage so many times. Such wise people are really rare!” Li Changshou glared at Ling’e and laughed. “This debate is not serious. It’s just that Mr. Bai and I are compromising.” Ling’e blinked and asked in confusion, “How?” “He gave up on the thought of instigating me to become the Second Heavenly Emperor. I had to let go of my killing intent towards him and lure him into becoming a good friend. Only then could I let him come up with a plan.” Li Changshou ate a mouthful of porridge and praised, “What did you add in here? It has a novel taste. It’s not bad.” “Hehe, it’s the recipe that Mr. Bai gave me previously.” Ling’e smiled and said, “Senior Brother, do you like it?”

“It’s alright.”

“Then I’ll...”

“Focus on your cultivation. You are still far from immortality. Don’t be distracted.” Li Changshou said calmly, “When you get the Dao Fruit of Longevity, I will not stop you even if I have to cook and wash clothes every twenty-four hours.” Ling’e blushed and approached him with a smile. She wanted to massage her senior brother’s back and act cute.

Li Changshou asked, “There less than ten years before we go out to train. Have you made sufficient preparations?”

“Ah.” Ling’e seemed to have suddenly thought of something. She turned around calmly and quickly sneaked towards the door of the Pill Chamber. “Senior Sister Youqin, I heard that you have just broken through the major barrier. What gift should I prepare?” Li Changshou shook his head and continued to read the sutra in his hand. This junior sister is obviously thinking of going back on her word!

Li Changshou put down the book and finished the porridge. He thought of something and slowly closed his eyes. His mind shifted to the paper effigy hiding in the middle of the South Continent. When he arrived, his Dao heart trembled! A heroic middle-aged man carried a boy in the backyard of the mansion and placed him on his knees, slapping his buttocks... Li Changshou’s lips twitched. This mortal General Hua, do you know how expensive the ass you’re whipping now is? That is the designated inheritor of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall’s throne! This General Hua is really... incredible! In such a situation, the Jade Emperor’s tribulation body, Hua Youming, had caused trouble again in the mortal world. That was why he was beaten up by his “biological father”.

Li Changshou pondered for a while and resisted the urge to take the Shadow-Retaining Ball and make a documentary for the Jade Emperor. The Jade Emperor had completed the Tribulation Transcendence. He would naturally recover his original memories, and he would remember the memories of the decades that he had spent in the mortal world.

Then, Li Changshou shifted his attention to the paper effigy not far away. He looked at the little girl who was learning to dance with a few maidservants in another house.

This little girl was indeed much cuter than the brat from the Hua Residence. Her face was pink and tender.

Li Changshou still had to spend some effort there. He had to knock out all kinds of men who wanted to get close to the Queen Mother before they met.

Otherwise, the Jade Emperor would be upset...

It was the best way to protect the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. It was his goal as an ordinary Heavenly Courts official.

Li Changshou suddenly recalled Bai Ze’s joke about the “Second Heavenly Emperor” and almost laughed out loud. Wouldn’t that be more comfortable? After observing the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother for a while, Li Changshou’s mind wandered. He returned to Anshui City and visited the ancestors and retired Demon Soldiers in the nursing home.

Recently, the two commanders had begun to bring the demonic soldiers out. They would either stroll the streets or go to the seaside to enjoy the sea breeze. It was indeed much better than the environment in the Mystic Capital. Li Changshou did not know if it was a psychological effect, but he could occasionally see faint smiles on their stiff faces. Apart from the battle in the Heavenly Courts and the Great God-Conferment Tribulation that was approaching, all kinds of things were developing in a better direction...

That made Li Changshou feel gratified. Ren School was gradually flourishing... The old Saint who was doing something unknown, the Great Daoist Master who was so lazy that apart from sleeping, he was about to lose all his pursuit in life, Li Changshou who was worried about the affairs of Ren School and had yet to publicly announce that he was the disciple of a new Saint, the Grand Supreme Elder’s ox, Little Gold, Little Silver, and... Bai Ze who was given for free. Bai Ze was also a wonderful person. After gradually accepting his fate, he actually had many thoughts of being open-minded. Every day, he studied recipes and cooked dishes... Originally, Li Changshou had arranged a somewhat deliberate script for Junior Sister Youqin to go to heaven.

The Water God was probably saved by Youqin Xuanya because he was injured.

The reason why he felt that it was deliberate was that in the Primordial World, all the Qi Refinement cultivators who paid attention to the Heavenly Courts knew that the Water God was only an incarnation of the Heavenly Courts.

It was a cheap incarnation that could self-destruct at any time!

Now that there was an auspicious beast like Bai Ze, Li Changshou’s thoughts became more lively.

He could first promote the spirituality of Bai Ze in various parts of the Primordial World and turn it into a divine beast that sought benefits and avoided evil. He could also say that he would be lucky to see it.

Then, he arranged for Bai Ze to save Youqin Xuanya, who had been injured during the battle. He swaggered over and brought Youqin Xuanya to the Heavenly Gate. He asked the Water God and General Dongmu to go out together to meet Bai Ze. Bai Ze spoke in the human language and told the Water God that this woman was righteous and could help the Heavenly Courts. Then, he asked Bai Ze to go on a cloud...

That way, not only would Youqin Xuanya’s reputation be tarnished, but she would also be able to obtain the approval of the Heavenly Courts faster. At the same time, he would be able to attack the morale of the demons.

The ten demon generals of the ancient times had sent a young girl filled with righteousness to the Heavenly Courts to serve them. That was a huge blow to the demons.

The question now was whether or not Bai Ze would agree to this matter.

After all, it was equivalent to announcing to the public that he, Bai Ze, was now on the side of Ren School and the Heavenly Courts. He would definitely be scolded... Li Changshou pondered for a while and decided to ask Bai Ze about it when he went to debate with him in two days.

Just as Li Changshou was about to retract his attention and meditate to comprehend the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, the Sea God Temple in Anshui City suddenly trembled.

His spiritual will immediately scanned the Sea God Temple and saw the sneaky Ox-head and Horse-face.

The two brothers were looking around the rear hall and did not dare to barge in. Li Changshou’s incarnation immediately appeared and asked if there was any trouble in the Netherworld. Ox-head and Horse-face hurriedly shook their heads.

The two Magi had sent three jade talismans over. They were the Secret Tome of the Magi that the Lady of Earth had written. There were a total of three volumes.

Li Changshou was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly. Ox-head and Horse-face naturally did not dare to take credit.

“Water God, when are you prepared to fight the demons?”

Ox-head said softly, “The Netherworld can mobilize 200,000 Netherworld servants and more than 1,000 ancient warlocks. The Ancestor had said that the Netherworld now belonged to the Heavenly Courts. The Heavenly Courts did not have enough accumulation. If we were to fight the demons, we can rely on more dragons to fight the Netherworld... Moo.”

“Thank the Goddess for her concern on my behalf.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Before the battle begins, I will definitely send someone to the Netherworld to visit her.” “That’s good, that’s good.” Ox-head heaved a sigh of relief. “We have rehearsed for so long. We have to let the demons use it.”

Li Changshou was puzzled. “What show did you rehearse?” “It’s a little inauspicious.” Horse-face hurriedly said, “When the time comes, the Water God will know that he will definitely anger those demons until they are fuming!” Li Changshou nodded with a smile and did not ask further.

Not long after, Ox-head and Horse-face bade farewell and left. However, they did not dare to ask Li Changshou for some seasonings. Li Changshou did not prepare much this time. After all, he had been debating with Bai Ze recently... After sending away Ox-head and Horse-face, Li Changshou returned his incarnation to the underground paper effigy vault. He cultivated obediently for a day and prepared questions for a day of debate. When the time came, he rode a cloud and flew to the Black Pool Peak next door. Today, before Li Changshou landed on the ground, Bai Ze, who was wearing the apron that Li Changshou had given him previously, rushed out of the magnificent kitchen with a shovel and grabbed Li Changshou’s arm. Li Changshou widened his eyes. Is this fellow rebelling?

Fortunately, it was the ‘main body’ paper effigy! “Water God! Hahaha!”

Bai Ze’s eyes emitted a blinding light as he cursed, “I finally understood it today! Why did you cover up for me and say that you found me in the Cave Abode of Du’e that day? You just made the right bet. You have a 30% chance of getting your junior sister’s blessing! You have already calculated everything up to my death! My instinct is to seek benefits and avoid danger. This is closely related to the operation of the Heavenly Dao. At that time, as long as you are determined to kill me, you can turn the possibility of not finding me into danger and turn the possibility of finding me into luck! I had a thought. When I went to the Cave Abode of Doom, I had already fallen into your trap! Alright! Alright! Ah, Water God, when the time comes, you will still blame it on luck to save my last bit of pride. I’m convinced! I’m really convinced! Water God, please accept a bow from me! I will be willing to be under the Water God’s command in the future. I will not be disloyal!”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless. Is that so? The speed at which the strategy was completed caught Li Changshou off guard. As expected of a mythical beast, he really... had something.
