When Bian Zhuang changed into the brand-new silver armor and stood by the calm but vast Heavenly River, waiting for the Sea God and Dong Mu Gong to inspect him, he …
His emotions were extremely complicated.
Back then, he, Bian Zhuang, had really come to the Celestial Court for that fairy.
— — Although he still didn't know the name of the beauty and had already given up on this idea, he couldn't be deceived by her.
However, in such an environment, the Celestial Court used merit and official position to make him, Bian Zhuang …
He had the ambition to advance!
How long had it been? He, Bian Zhuang, had gone from the joking Marshal Heavenly Bean to the Deputy Commander of the Heavenly River Navy!
How long had it been? The power of merit that he had accumulated was already several times more than the merit that the World Edge Pavilion had accumulated after so many years of operation!
Of course, there were not many opportunities to accumulate merit in operating such a "temporary love tribulation" place.
Now, Bian Zhuang walked in the Celestial Court. Within the range that he could move around, he addressed the Heavenly Generals as brothers. When he met the Heavenly Soldiers, he would be addressed as "General" or "Marshal".
The word "Marshal" was really a thousand times more comfortable than a hundred "Young Master"!
More importantly, when he passed by groups of fairies occasionally, most of them would cast curious and appreciative gazes at him instead of disgust and disgust.
Those were just the benefits that he could see. The other benefits were innumerable!
The most obvious example was that it had become easier to increase his cultivation level. The original bottleneck seemed to have disappeared …
He, Bian Zhuang, was now sincerely determined to become an outstanding general in the Celestial Court!
Therefore, when Bian Zhuang received the transfer order from the Hall of Enlightenment, he was so excited that his Dao heart almost stopped!
However, when he saw the last sentence of the transfer order, "Lead the Heavenly Soldiers to serve the Four Seas God of Perfection", Bian Zhuang's vision darkened and he almost escaped from the Celestial Court overnight!
Why?
What he was most afraid of seeing now was the Sea God!
Bian Zhuang was not a stupid person other than the matters between men and women.
How could he not understand that the reason why he was able to obtain so many rewards from the Celestial Court was because he accidentally made a slip of the tongue after drinking and bragged that he had obtained the appreciation of Master Xuandu of Ren School and the Sea God?
Fortunately, a transcendent existence like the Great Daoist Master did not care about that small matter.
As for the Sea God, he was rather busy and had never cared about such a small matter.
But now …
Bian Zhuang was no longer the ignorant bean farmer from before. He completely understood how powerful the Sea God was in the Celestial Court.
It was said that Dong Mu Gong had said it himself. Now, Sea God was responsible for more than 80% of the important affairs of the Celestial Court. He was the most trusted subject of the Jade Emperor. Besides Dong Mu Gong, he was the only important subject of the Celestial Court who had the power to mobilize troops!
Of course, the strongest backer of the Sea God was naturally the third big shot of Ren School.
What about Bian Zhuang?
It was just that his family had some assets. It was nothing in the Celestial Court.
With the help of his bragging and the rake that he had from the Tushita Palace, he had become the most popular Heavenly General in the Celestial Court.
However, those were all empty pavilions. As long as the Sea God said a word, he would immediately reveal his true form …
In fact, the higher he was, the more he would fall in the next moment!
"Isn't this asking for my life!?!"
What should I do?
Bian Zhuang kept hesitating. He wanted to leave, but he could not bear to give up on his current "glory and wealth".
In the end, Bian Zhuang decided to pay a visit to the Sea God in advance. No matter what price he had to pay, he had to ask the Sea God not to expose his bragging.
However, just as Bian Zhuang was about to leave, a group of Heavenly Soldiers came to urge him to go to the Heavenly River to restrain the troops.
How long has it been?
He had just received the order from the Hall of Enlightenment yesterday, and today, he was about to take up the post!
At that time, Bian Zhuang's legs went limp and he almost collapsed in the courtyard of his residence.
When the Heavenly Soldiers saw that, they immediately went forward to support him. Without another word, they carried him there and placed him in the position of the deputy commander.
Looking at the fawning smiles the Heavenly Soldiers were giving him, Bian Zhuang really wanted to send them to the World Edge Pavilion to serve those female immortals who liked to torture people!
What should I do?
What else can I do?
Bian Zhuang was feeling vexed. His immortal senses captured the figures of Dong Mu Gong and the Sea God riding a cloud.
At that moment, Bian Zhuang's left eye reflected the scene of him drinking with many Heavenly Generals and being addressed as "Brother Marshal" by many fairies.
In his right eye, he was being pressed to the ground by a few Heavenly Soldiers and thrown into the Heavenly Punishment Pool. He was struck by lightning and turned into ashes. The fairies' eyes were filled with disdain …
He could even imagine what the fairies were saying!
Eh, you pretended to be on the orders of Ren School to cheat others and even received so many rewards from the Celestial Court. You're really shameless.
Scum! Shameless!
"I thought he would be the Grand Marshal in the future."
No …
All of this could not leave him just like that. He, Bian Zhuang, had to grasp his own destiny!
"Sea God!"
The veins on Bian Zhuang's neck bulged. His voice was hoarse as he roared.
"The Sea God is here! It's the Sea God! It's the Sea God! "
Behind Bian Zhuang …
The 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers were lined up in three layers, with the front, middle, and back. At that moment, they looked at Bian Zhuang and were confused.
However, Bian Zhuang did not care. With tears in his eyes, he rode the white cloud and pounced towards Dong Mu Gong and Li Changshou.
Hundreds of kilometers away, Bian Zhuang shouted,
"Sea God! I'm Bian Zhuang, your deputy commander! "
General Dongmu was speechless. He looked at Li Changshou with a puzzled expression and whispered, "That's right.
"Should we find another deputy commander? This one … doesn't look very normal. "
"It's fine." Li Changshou squinted and smiled. His immortal senses captured Bian Zhuang's expression. When he heard Bian Zhuang's shout that was filled with immortal power, he understood why Bian Zhuang was like that.
Li Changshou was also puzzled …
What happened to the "pride" that this fellow had when he was in front of the Dragon Palace and ignored everything for Ke Le 'er?
However, Li Changshou did not want to make things difficult for his future "Second Senior Brother".
Especially when he saw how handsome Bian Zhuang was now and thought about the image of his Second Senior Brother in the future …
Yes, Li Changshou sighed.
Bian Zhuang hurriedly flew in front of Li Changshou. He did not know if he was too excited, but he bent his legs and prostrated himself on the cloud. He lay on the cloud and flew thousands of feet away.
Crack!
Bian Zhuang buried his head in the cloud and pressed his palms together above his head.
He shouted, "I, Bian Zhuang, am willing to serve the Sea God and chase after the fairy. No, I'm willing to serve the Sea God!
I won't hesitate to sacrifice my life! "
Dong Mu Gong frowned and looked at Li Changshou. He asked seriously, "Is he really fine?"
Li Changshou smiled and said, "He's still young. After a little training, he will be of great use in the future."
Bian Zhuang, who was lying in the cloud, could not help but be stunned. He raised his head slightly and secretly looked at the two powerful big shots of the Celestial Court in front of him. He frantically pondered over the Sea God's words …
What does he mean?
Does the Sea God really think highly of him?
Is there something unique about him that I did not notice that attracted the Sea God's attention?
Bian Zhuang was still a little confused. Li Changshou had already urged,
"Yun Shang Liang, Commander Bian, quickly get up.
Commander Bian, please rush back first and let the high-ranking generals step out. I have arrangements to make later. "
Bian Zhuang trembled and immediately jumped up. His eyes were blank, and his heart was blank.
What's going on?
At that moment, Li Changshou smiled and said, "Commander Bian, you have to put away the rake that the Great Daoist Master gave you. Don't damage it."
"Hey, hey!"
Bian Zhuang's lips trembled. Then, he snapped out of his daze and shouted, "Thank you, Sea God." Then, he hugged the Nine-Toothed Rake in his arms and turned around to rush towards the Heavenly River.
He hurriedly shouted, "Mu Gong, let's go."
Li Changshou invited him with a smile. He and Dong Mu Gong enjoyed the magnificent scenery of the Heavenly River. As they chatted and laughed, they headed towards the place where the Heavenly Soldiers were gathered.
Li Changshou suddenly recalled that Second Senior Brother's family seemed to have a chain of immortal clubs called the World Edge Pavilion.
This did have some value to him.
…
After Dong Mu Gong handed over the Tiger Token, the hundred thousand Heavenly River Navy soldiers bowed to Li Changshou. Li Changshou officially took over the hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers.
Without any delay, Li Changshou immediately gathered three hundred Heavenly Generals.
The first thing Li Changshou did was to promote the other two deputy commanders and let them lead the Heavenly River Navy together with Bian Zhuang.
Bian Zhuang did not have any complaints about that. He even felt that the Sea God knew that his abilities were limited and had made a "considerate arrangement".
From great sorrow to great joy.
In just one day, Bian Zhuang had experienced the ups and downs of life.
When Li Changshou dismissed the Heavenly Generals and only the three deputy commanders stayed behind to discuss the matter, Bian Zhuang was the first to come forward. He held the pocket money that he had accumulated over the years with both hands — two ring-shaped storage Dharma treasures.
"Sea God, this is a gift from me to you!"
The two Heavenly Generals looked at each other and hurriedly began to touch their pockets.
"Bastard!"
Li Changshou suddenly berated, his entire body emitting a shocking dignity.
Bian Zhuang's legs trembled and he hurriedly knelt on one knee.
Li Changshou raised his horsetail whisk and shouted,
"Left and right! Pull Deputy Commander Bian Zhuang down and use the Heavenly Lightning Whip to whip him!
How dare you blatantly bribe me? If such a trend prevails, it will be terrible! "
Bian Zhuang opened his mouth. Before he could say anything, a few Heavenly Soldiers rushed over and carried Bian Zhuang to the side.
Not long after, lightning flashed by the Heavenly River. Bian Zhuang's screams echoed.
The other two deputy commanders were also a little worried. Fortunately, Li Changshou did not flare up again and regained his amiable expression.
When Bian Zhuang returned from his punishment, Li Changshou gave him a healing pill. After Bian Zhuang consumed it, he began to discuss important matters with the three of them.
Li Changshou naturally would not use the 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers to attack the rebel army of the four seas.
He assigned three tasks to his subordinates.
Firstly, he would choose the training ground for the 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers in the South Ocean and the East Ocean. In front of the Dragons, they would train at least 20 times a month. This matter would be handled by the two deputy commanders.
Secondly, he would choose a group of smart Heavenly Generals and let Bian Zhuang bring them to the South Ocean, the North Ocean, and the Donghai Dragon Palace to take advantage of them. Bian Zhuang would also speak about how good the Celestial Court was.
Li Changshou would arrange for a few Divine Envoys of the Sea God Sect to guide Bian Zhuang throughout the entire process.
However, at the same time, Li Changshou also gave Bian Zhuang a death order. He could eat and drink in the Dragons, but he could not touch the Sea Maiden or the Dragon Lady and ruin the dignity of the Celestial Court.
"Otherwise, hmph!"
"I definitely won't dare. Otherwise, you can punish me as you please!"
Li Changshou said calmly, "I'll say this first. If you really commit this crime, I'll strip you of your Deity Position and send you to the mortal world by throwing you into the Heavenly Punishment Well. You'll transform into a woman who will be afraid of you!"
Bian Zhuang's legs could not help but tremble. He repeatedly said that he did not dare.
During the days he spent in the Celestial Court, he actually understood …
What he liked wasn't any particular woman, it was just pure beauty.
After making those arrangements, Li Changshou took out a book called "Army Training Tactics" and asked the three deputy commanders to read it carefully. The first Four Seas Drill would begin in half a month.
The three deputy commanders cupped their fists and agreed. They respectfully sent Li Changshou away from the Heavenly River.
As soon as Li Changshou left, the other two deputy commanders cupped their hands at the same time.
One of them smiled and said, "Brother Bian, I'm impatient. Please forgive me if I offend you in the future."
Bian Zhuang was stunned at first. Then, he endured the pain in his back and straightened his back. He replied with a smile, "Sure, sure."
The crisis was temporarily averted.
At that moment, Bian Zhuang understood that he was now …
He had already become the Sea God's subordinate!
To put it nicely, he was a direct descendant. To put it bluntly, he was a trusted aide!
Happiness had come too quickly. He was caught off guard. He was eager to send some local specialties from his hometown to the Sea God.
…
After leaving the Heavenly River, Li Changshou rode a cloud and rushed to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
Letting the Heavenly River Navy descend to the mortal world to train in the sea was just a part of his subsequent plan.
He had to report to the Jade Emperor in advance about what would happen later and borrow the power of the Celestial Court.
When he arrived at the Lingxiao Hall, the Heavenly Soldiers guarding the door did not dare to stop him. The Heavenly General in front of the hall hurriedly bowed.
Li Changshou rode a cloud and landed in front of the hall. He carried his horsetail whisk and entered the Lingxiao Treasure Hall in a white robe.
On the platform, the white-robed Jade Emperor put down the scroll in his hand and smiled.
"Changgeng, do you have another brilliant plan?"
Li Changshou bowed first and then explained part of his plan in detail.
When the Jade Emperor heard …
"Your Majesty, you have already given the order. The Immortal Peach Banquet is the time to decide the fate of the Dragons. I will use that as the basis to subdue the dragons.
I feel that there is still a possibility of completing the best plan at this time. If the Dragons take the initiative to surrender, the power of the Celestial Court can be fully displayed. "
The Jade Emperor smiled and said, "If you feel that time is running out, the Immortal Peach Banquet can be postponed."
"Your Majesty, you can't do that!"
Li Changshou said seriously, "Your Majesty, it is a taboo to change your orders. Your Majesty, even the operation of the Heavenly Dao will be affected. It will affect countless living beings in the world. If you change it easily, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
Your Majesty, don't worry. I'm just trying my best. It would be great if I succeed. If I fail, I can reduce some of the resistance after the Celestial Court subdue the Dragons. "
"Sure!"
The white-robed Jade Emperor sighed and said, "What do I have to worry about, Changgeng? Is there anything that the Celestial Court can do? "
Li Changshou pondered for a while and said, "I'll be bold and need three things."
The Jade Emperor immediately perked up. "Tell me!"
Li Changshou said, "I need Your Majesty to write a blank letter. There's no need for the Heavenly Emperor's seal. Your Majesty, you can just leave a wisp of Dao runes on it."
"Okay."
"I need a few immortal peaches. Later, I will go to the Jade Void Palace, Golden Ao Island, and other places under the Saint to visit the people in charge of Chan School and Jie School.
With the fact that the Celestial Court wants to take the Dragons into the Heavens, I will ask the experts of the two sects to help and pressure the Dragons. "
"Sure!"
"I still need some merit and an order from Your Majesty."
Li Changshou took out a scroll from his sleeve. It was the Da Yu Hydrology Diagram.
He said unhurriedly, "When I went to the Fire Cloud Cave, Emperor Da Yu bestowed this item to me. It is marked with the rivers, lakes, and swamps of the South Continent.
In the next twelve years, I asked to travel the South Continent with this diagram.
Your Majesty, although the four seas are huge, the Deity Positions are limited.
The rivers and lakes in the South Continent can be conferred the title of low-level Water God.
The Water Gods of the various places can be appointed for a term of a thousand years or a hundred years.
In that case, this batch of Deity Positions could allow the Dragons to quickly clear their negative karma. How could the Dragons not be tempted?
Forcefully suppress, show kindness, and give the Dragons hope. I'm not afraid that the Dragons will not take the initiative to ask for help.
Moreover, putting the water affairs of the South Continent under the direct control of the Celestial Court can also make up for the vacancy of the Celestial Court's Deity Position. "
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
The Jade Emperor clapped and laughed. He stood up behind the jade table and looked at Li Changshou with a burning gaze.
"Changgeng, how many more surprises can you give me!?!
Using the Da Yu Hydrology Diagram to develop the Deity Positions of the rivers and lakes of the South Continent, why would he worry about not being able to attract the Dragons to take the initiative to be loyal to him?
Changgeng had to come up with such a brilliant plan!
Changgeng, quickly listen up! "
Li Changshou bowed and said, "I'm here."
The Jade Emperor paced back and forth behind the jade table. He was in high spirits and his eyes were shining!
Then, he attracted the power of the Heavenly Dao and opened the Heavenly Emperor's mouth.
"Today, I order the Sea God, Changgeng, to hold the Da Yu Hydrology Diagram and wield the Demon-Slaying Sword to patrol the various water conservancy projects of the South Continent and stabilize the Deity Positions of the Rivers, Lakes, and Swamps!"
"I accept your orders!"
As soon as Li Changshou finished speaking, golden light flickered everywhere in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall. Waves of power of merit surged towards the treasure map in Li Changshou's hand. Almost in the blink of an eye, the treasure map was dyed golden.
Following that, another sheathed sword slowly condensed in front of Li Changshou. It was wrapped in rich Heavenly Dao power and was comparable to a top-grade Postnatal Merit numinous treasure!
The Heavenly Emperor Demon-Slaying Sword!
Hmm … Although it was basically useless, it looked quite good in his hand.
