"What a vicious plan."
Li Changshou was multitasking. One of the paper effigies brought Long Ji to the Dragon Palace, while the other paper effigy was in the rear hall of the Sea God Temple. He sent away the mosquito that had just sent a message.
Then, he began to think of a countermeasure.
Speaking of which, it was his fault. Perhaps he had hidden it a little too tightly, causing the Western Sect to be unable to find a suitable breakthrough. They actually shifted their attention to the structure of the Sea God Sect.
It was a second-rate sect with two Lord Sage guarding it. After pondering for a long time, they actually wanted to destroy the small Xiong Village of the Magihumans and attack the Divine Envoys of the Xiong Village of the Sea God Sect! Venting his anger.
That was purely revenge and venting his anger!
Although that method was a little ridiculous, it did make Li Changshou feel extremely uncomfortable …
After thinking about it carefully, he realized that he was not "stable" enough.
Previously, he was young and frivolous. He had always felt that being stable meant not making any mistakes in all aspects.
Now that his mentality had matured a little, he realized that when managing a faction, the true way to be stable was to purposely reveal a false flaw and use it to guide the enemy's actions. Then, the enemy would make use of this flaw to give himself more opportunities to respond.
Now was not the time to reflect on himself. He still had to quickly think of a solution.
If the Western Sect wanted to destroy the Sea God Sect, they only needed to send a few ferocious beasts to kill the Divine Envoys and temple devotees of the Sea God Sect. That would allow them to achieve an astonishing effect in a short period of time.
Fortunately, Li Changshou …
He was already prepared.
The paper effigy in the rear hall immediately fled underground. The seven to eight paper effigies had already begun to split up.
He would move Xiong Village away in the shortest time possible and bring most of the Magihumans of Xiong Village to the East Continent. Then, he would gather the "elite" Divine Envoys in the safe house under the Sea God Temple.
Although the Western Sect wanted to deal with the Magihumans this time, Li Changshou would remind the True Dragon Guardians stationed everywhere later to temporarily retreat to the South Ocean …
In addition, in order to cover the outstanding underground ambushers on the enemy's rear, Li Changshou also got the various Sea God Temples to post notices.
[The Divine Envoys are going to gather together for a divine power advancement. Everyone, please stay at home and light incense.]
After doing all this, Li Changshou still felt that it wasn't enough.
The matter with the Dragons had also reached a critical juncture. If he was distracted and made a mistake, the enemy might take advantage of it.
Although the Magihumans had 'schemed' against him in the beginning, they had been trying their best to cheat him of food and drink for so many years. Ahem, they had been trying their best to develop the Sea God Sect!
For Li Changshou to obtain so much merit from incense offerings, the Magihumans had made an indelible contribution. Since he could protect them, he would not let them bleed in vain …
After thinking for a while, Li Changshou used a Gold God realm paper effigy and a few Divine Envoys with superb acting skills. For example, Xiong Laosan, who was "hitting women in the middle of the night", rushed to the Netherworld.
If the Magihumans were to encounter danger, it would be reasonable for the experts of the Magi to stand up and protect them.
Li Changshou would not be a freeloader of the experts of the Magi. He would not be stingy with the gifts that he should give. He would order people to prepare whatever the Magi of the Netherworld lacked.
It was nothing more than a business involving tens of thousands of spiritual beasts!
While making preparations for the battle, Li Changshou brought Long Ji into the sea and arrived at the Donghai Dragon Palace.
Li Changshou said, "Wait. I have something to deal with first."
"Alright ~"
Long Ji agreed obediently and stood behind Li Changshou, admiring the beautiful scenery in the sea.
No matter how deep and vast the four seas of the Primordial World were, there would always be some hazy light. Most immortals and Qi Refinement cultivators were good at "observing in the dark". Observing things in the sea was like admiring flowers during the day.
Not long after, Li Changshou adjusted his mind and arranged the various matters in Xiong Village. Then, he called out to Long Ji.
"Alright, let's go to the Dragon Palace."
"Sea God, do you have any difficulties?"
Long Ji said seriously, "I received my mother's instructions last night. Although the Celestial Court has few soldiers and generals, I can't let you work alone, Sea God. If there are any difficulties, please tell the Celestial Court.
Um …
That's what Mother said. "
"Hahaha." Li Changshou smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Goddess. If I encounter any difficulties, I will not bear it alone. I will prioritize the righteousness of the Celestial Court!"
Long Ji blinked and suddenly realized …
The Sea God was really good at talking.
Words that were just right, precise, skillful, and full of meaning came out of his mouth almost as soon as he opened his mouth!
Long Ji took out the jade token and immediately wrote down her discovery.
She looked up at the Sea God's back and felt that he was unfathomable …
In various senses …
In front, dragon roars could be heard. The seawater was boiling, and the fish were fleeing in all directions.
The Dragons, who had long known that Li Changshou had arrived in the East Ocean, sent a large number of soldiers to welcome Li Changshou when he was still 500 kilometers away from the Crystal Palace.
At that moment, Long Ji heard a soft intake of breath in the immortal power barrier.
Long Ji tiptoed and leaned forward. She saw that the Sea God's expression was a little solemn. The Sea God's gaze was firm, which she had never seen before.
"Sea God, are the Dragons going to be very difficult?"
"It's alright."
Li Changshou clenched his fists slightly. He was already determined to fight this battle!
From today onwards, he would be a hero in the Lingxiao Hall!
He did not expect that he, Li Changshou, would be able to feel some pride!
Long Ji, who was at the side, keenly sensed the change in the Sea God's mentality. She could not help but feel agitated.
Father said that this Sea God has a weakness. He is too stable in everything and has to think about it several times before taking action.
However, seeing him today, it doesn't seem like what Father … said …
Before Long Ji could finish her thoughts, an expert from the Dragons rushed over first. He laughed at the Sea God and bowed from afar.
The Sea God instantly broke through. A moment ago, he was still filled with pride. Suddenly … he squinted and smiled.
The dragon-headed elder shouted, "Sea God, how have you been?!"
The Sea God replied, "It's all thanks to Elder Ao Jiao. I'm enjoying myself in the Celestial Court."
After saying that, the two of them raised their heads and laughed. Their laughter echoed in the seawater.
This …
Long Ji was speechless.
She also knew that there was an unwritten rule in the Primordial World. If two people met and did not know if they were enemies, they could laugh a few times. The longer they laughed, the lower the hostility.
How did this rule come about?
According to rumors, in ancient times, many Connate lifeforms would laugh happily when they picked up treasures. Other Connate lifeforms would take a detour when they heard the laughter and rush to other places to pick up treasures …
As time passed, there was such a rule.
In ancient times, the experts from all sides would start laughing when they were 500 kilometers away. If they went to a place where it was easy to cause fights and treasures, they would laugh as they flew over …
Yes, it was reasonable and convincing.
Long Ji pursed her lips gently and listened to the dragon-headed elder and the Sea God chatting …
"Hahaha! Sea God, quickly follow me back to the Crystal Palace. Today, I will definitely drink 300 cups with you! "
"Is the Dragon King at home?
I still have a few important matters to discuss with the Dragon King this time. "
"Yes, yes. His Majesty is already waiting for you. Hahahaha!"
Accompanied by such hearty laughter, Li Changshou brought Long Ji and was surrounded by the experts of the Dragons as they slowly walked towards the Crystal Palace.
Long Ji was still in a daze. She did not understand how the Sea God managed to do it. He was like a different person in just two seconds.
Hence, Long Ji wrote a sentence in the jade token.
"The Sea God changes his emotions extremely quickly. No one can match his ability to put on a show."
However, Long Ji blinked and added, "Those who like to squint and smile are all strange … powerful people!"
Although I'm the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor, it's not wrong to be more obedient when it comes to the Sea God.
… Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation "Those who like to squint and smile are all strange … powerful people!"
…
Let's not talk about it for now. The luck of the Dragons is right around the corner.
Li Changshou rarely felt nervous. Apart from the first time he faced the Heavenly Tribulation, the first time he faced the Heavenly Punishment, the first time he faced the Great Daoist Master, and when he had just reached the Void Return realm, he accidentally entered the Cave Abode of a pair of Perfected Immortal Dao companions and broke it …
That was not important.
Ahem, in short, he could maintain a relatively calm state of mind under most circumstances.
However, Li Changshou was indeed a little nervous when he came to the Crystal Palace this time.
This scheme had been going on for so many years. It concerned the great merit that he had yet to obtain. To a certain extent, it even determined his future development. It could seriously interfere with the fluctuations of the Primordial World's survival safety index!
However, it was precisely that sense of nervousness that made Li Changshou tense up. His thoughts became more agile, and his thoughts raced faster.
He entered the Crystal Palace and went to the Dragon King Hall.
The Dragon King of the East Ocean walked down the platform to welcome him. He exchanged greetings with Li Changshou and then led Li Changshou to the platform. The guest and host entered the banquet.
The Dragons should have seen through Princess Long Ji's identity. They had prepared a seat for her at the banquet.
Seeing that Long Ji still wanted to stand behind him, Li Changshou smiled and said, "Sit. Don't let down the Dragon King's good intentions."
"Yes." Long Ji bowed and agreed. She puffed out her chest and sat behind Li Changshou.
He was naturally calm and had the demeanor of a master.
"Dragon King." Li Changshou cupped his hands and smiled. "I'm here today because I have something good to tell you, Dragon King.
Has Ao Yi told you about the Immortal Peach Banquet? "
"My son has already told me." The Dragon King of the East Ocean stroked his beard and chuckled. His dragon eyes were filled with energy and were no longer as drowsy as usual.
The Dragon King of the East Ocean smiled and said, "Sea God, my son has been running around recently. He has been lobbying his elders in the East Ocean about how the Deity Position of the Celestial Court is …
Did the Sea God give you these instructions? "
"That's right."
Li Changshou admitted it openly and smiled.
"I also want to lay the groundwork so that I won't feel a little abrupt when I come today.
I told you all this because I want you to know that I have no intention of deceiving the Dragons. "
The Dragon King of the East Ocean pondered for a while and looked down at the wine bottle in front of him.
Li Changshou was not in a hurry. He waited at the side for a while.
In the silence, it was a competition, but it was also not a competition.
Long Ji, who was at the side, held the jade token and recorded every word that the Sea God said. She savored it carefully and felt that there was a deeper meaning behind it.
At that moment, Long Ji seemed to have seen two black clouds gathering on the Sea God and the old Dragon King. It made her feel a little pressured …
"Ah …"
The Dragon King sighed slowly and picked up the wine bottle. His smile was a little tired.
"Let me toast the Sea God."
"Thank you, Dragon King!"
Li Changshou raised his cup and returned the greeting. He gently lifted the wine bottle and put on a serious expression.
"Dragon King, let me ask you something. Let's not talk about the other three clans. Are there any important figures in Donghai Dragon Palace who are disgusted with the Celestial Court?"
The Dragon King said, "Sea God, you're being too serious. Our race only has respect for the Celestial Court.
The Heavenly Court has helped our race many times, and even given us so many benefits. Our race is very grateful to them.
However … there are indeed many clansmen who are worried that the Celestial Court is just another Western Sect. Our race has already lost most of its vitality. We really can't withstand such a torment. "
"Hahaha!"
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Today, I'll dispel these doubts for the Dragons!
Dragon King, why don't you gather the elders in Donghai Dragon Palace now? I'll tell them about today's joyous occasion in detail.
That way, you won't have to repeat it again, Dragon King. "
"Oh?"
The Dragon King of the East Ocean was also interested. However, he did not ask further. He only smiled and said, "In that case, Sea God, wait a moment.
Where's the Prime Minister? "
A few Turtle Ministers ran in from outside the hall.
At that moment, the Dragon King gave the order. In Donghai Dragon Palace, the Dragon Mother, the Dragon Son, dozens of elders with real authority, and dozens of generals of the Dragons who were slightly weaker but powerful gathered in the main hall of the Crystal Palace.
Long Ji could not help but sweat at the sight of it …
Li Changshou remained calm. When the upper echelons of Donghai Dragon Palace gathered, he first stood up and bowed. Then, he said a short crosstalk with Ao Yi that he had written in advance. Finally, he successfully led the topic to the matter of the Dragons going to heaven …
"Everyone!"
Li Changshou stood in front of the platform and bowed slightly to the Dragons.
"Now that the opportunity of the Dragons is in front of us, I'm actually here to persuade the Celestial Court to confer the title of the Sea God of the four seas.
I know that everyone is worried, and I also know that the Dragons are unwilling to be loyal to any faction.
The Dragons were once the rulers of the world in ancient times. In ancient times, they ruled the four seas. Even today, they are still a force that cannot be ignored in the Primordial World and the Three Realms!
Today, I will not mention the powerful people who are coveting the Dragons' Essence Energy, nor will I mention the so-called great luck and general trend. I will just talk about the matters related to the Dragons!
There are three benefits for the Dragons to serve the heavens.
The first is merit, and the second is negative karma. The two are one, but they are not the same. Everyone, take a look at His Highness Ao Yi and you will know. "
Ao Yi took the initiative to stand up and activate his own merit. The almost overflowing incense merit and the pure Heavenly Dao merit reflected each other …
Li Changshou continued, "I don't have to say anything about those two points. The third point is that it can protect the Dragons from the Western Sect's invasion."
"Sea God!"
A Dragons general frowned and said, "The first and second points are the most important. Why did you skip them?"
Another Dragons elder spoke.
"Since the Sea God is straightforward, there's no need for us to beat around the bush. I have a question!
How many Deity Positions can the Celestial Court give to the Dragons so that the Dragons can escape their current predicament?
Sea God, have you calculated it? "
"Dozens or hundreds are naturally not enough," Li Changshou said calmly. "However, if you want the Deity Position, you want to use the Deity Position to sweep away your negative karma. Why don't you allow the Deity Position to be replaced once every thousand years or even hundreds of years? If the Dragons take turns, why would they worry about the negative karma?"
The Dragons could not help but be stunned.
Could the Deity Position of the Celestial Court be played that way?
"The Celestial Court's rules are strict, but they can also use the Heavenly Rules." Li Changshou smiled and said, "The Heavenly Dao is eternal and impartial, but there are many rules that can be used by you and me.
Moreover, the Deity Position of the Celestial Court is not eternal.
The regular rotation and inspection of the low-level Deity Position that is not a legitimate god is something that I am about to report to the Jade Emperor.
Are you satisfied with my answer? "
Many of the upper echelons of the Dragons were already moved. The elder of the Dragons who had raised the question bowed deeply to Li Changshou and looked ashamed.
"I'm inexperienced. Please don't blame me, Sea God!"
"That's not all!"
Li Changshou laughed loudly and said, "In order to resolve the danger of the Dragons, the Heavenly Emperor ordered me to go to the Fire Cloud Cave to pay my respects to the ancestors of the human race and retrieve this treasure.
Everyone, take a look! "
After saying that, Li Changshou took out the Da Yu Hydrology Diagram that was flickering with golden light.
With a wave of his left hand, the treasure map spread out. In the Crystal Palace, it projected a panoramic view of the South Continent. Surging rivers surged out from it.
"Today, I might as well tell everyone that His Majesty has ordered me to investigate the rivers, lakes, and swamps of the South Continent. In a few days, I will be able to confer the title of Water God!
The Dragons have been in charge of the four seas for a long time. They are good at water battles and have opened up water routes. Is there a more suitable Water God of the South Continent than the Dragons? "
As soon as he said that, the dragons were moved. Many of the old dragons' eyes even turned red …
Li Changshou took the opportunity to chase after him and continued, "The Dragons went to the heavens because they followed the momentum of the Heavenly Dao and obtained the righteous heart of the world.
Today, I have the brush and ink of the disciples of the Saints of Chan School and Jie School, who are in charge of the teachings of the Dao Sect, to offer it to the Dragon King! "
After saying that, Li Changshou took out the scroll that had been bound and handed it to Ao Yi.
Ao Yi slowly unfolded the brush and ink. The four words' Dragons Ascend to Heaven 'revealed two completely different Dao runes, causing the Dragons present to tremble.
The benefits of the Celestial Court and the might of the Dao Sect!
An elder of the Dragons whispered, "It's indeed the Dao runes of Daoist Duobao and Guangchengzi."
Ao Yi held the scroll and presented it to the Dragon King. The Dragon King of the East Ocean took it with both hands and sighed.
The dignified, beautiful, and dignified Dragon Mother said, "If it's really as the Sea God said, why can't our race worship the Jade Emperor?
However, even if you swear a Great Dao oath, what about the Jade Emperor's heart … How can you guarantee it? "
"Why can't I guarantee it?"
A clear voice sounded. Long Ji stood up and bowed to everyone.
She said calmly, "If the Dragons enter the Heavens to help the Celestial Court govern the Three Realms, the Jade Emperor will definitely not treat the Dragons badly.
Now, the Celestial Court is indeed in a dilemma. However, the Jade Emperor is working hard to govern. The entire Celestial Court is united. With the help of the Sea God, who is a wise sage, it is only a matter of time before they prosper!
If everyone goes to the Heavens now, there will be many opportunities to make contributions. There will be many merit to be obtained. Wouldn't that be a beautiful thing? "
"Your Highness." Li Changshou smiled and said, "Sit down."
"Oh," Long Ji replied obediently and hurriedly returned to her seat, causing the few dragon sons to look at her.
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Dragon Mother, I'm actually here today to make a statement in the Donghai Dragon Palace.
To be honest, apart from the Donghai Dragon Palace, I'm worried about the other three Dragon Palaces. I'm afraid that there are people from the Western Sect hiding.
This is my final trump card … Please look here! "
As he spoke, Li Changshou took out a golden scroll from his sleeve and raised it high. It shone with a golden light and rich Heavenly Dao power rippled.
Li Changshou's hand trembled. The scroll quickly opened, but it was blank!
"As long as the Dragon King and the elders agree to this matter today and swear not to go back on their word.
If you have any worries, feel free to speak up.
Naturally, I still have to consider it. In front of everyone, I will write the Celestial Court's guarantee on this decree and present it to the Jade Emperor.
As long as the Heavenly Emperor's Seal is stamped on it, it will be recognized by the Heavenly Dao.
In that case, do you trust me and the Celestial Court? "
