At the East Heavenly Gate, Li Changshou sat on the Golden Roc's back and hurriedly returned. He directly revealed the Water God Divine Power Treasure that could not be faked.
The Heavenly Generals were stunned at first before they walked forward to welcome him.
"Lord Taibai Jinxing!"
"Lord Taibai Jinxing, you're finally back!"
"Greetings, Lord Taibai Jinxing!"
The scene was a little chaotic. Li Changshou did not answer. His expression was tense. He nodded at the Heavenly Generals and flashed into the East Heavenly Gate.
Due to the Dao Ancestor's invitation to "denounce" him, Li Changshou did not dare to delay any longer. He could only bid farewell to Yun Xiao in a hurry.
Grandpa Chao looked at Li Changshou's anxious expression and did not ask further. He only agreed to drink together later and went to the Three-Immortal Island to take a look.
He naturally could not tell Yun Xiao that the Dao Ancestor had summoned him to the Purple Cloud Palace to teach him a lesson, lest she worry.
After all, Yun Xiao already knew a lot. She also knew about the existence of Senior Lang.
After entering the East Heavenly Gate, Li Changshou did not hide his aura. Instead, he took the initiative to spread his Dao runes and swaggered towards the Nine Heavens.
He would fly as fast as he could.
He would cause as much commotion as he could.
From the deepest part of the Nine Heavens, he could find the path to the Purple Cloud Palace.
The prerequisite was that the Purple Cloud Palace wanted to be found.
Li Changshou's figure turned into a comet and rushed into the deepest part of the sky!
He was filled with urgency.
When he decided to let Kun Peng swallow the Primordial Violet Qi, Li Changshou had already thought of the various subsequent situations.
It was taboo to act without planning.
The main reason why Li Changshou made up his mind to resist the will of the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao at that moment and not accept the wisp of Primordial Violet Qi was that he was certain that he would not be killed by the Heavenly Dao because he rejected the purple Qi.
The reason was very complicated to explain. It could be simply understood as …
He was still useful.
Therefore, Li Changshou had already understood at that time that after he dealt with the Primordial Violet Qi and Kun Peng and returned to the Primordial World, there was a high chance that he would be punished.
The most serious situation was actually when the Heavenly Punishment descended. The Dao Ancestor did not give him any hints and severely injured him as a warning.
The Dao Ancestor seemed to be furious when the Purple Cloud Palace summoned him this time. However, the two sentences gave him enough room to maneuver.
The meaning behind the Dao Ancestor's words was that he wanted him to find a suitable reason to make everyone look good.
Rejecting the Primordial Violet Qi was equivalent to rejecting the binding with the Heavenly Dao.
In the current Primordial World, the nature of this matter could be very bad. It could also be reduced to a small matter and left unsettled in the end.
If he could not give a satisfactory answer to the Heavenly Dao, Ancestral Master, and Ancestral Master, his subsequent series of plans would be affected.
This was not a game, but a choice that Li Changshou had made.
Li Changshou naturally did not feel that he was qualified to compete with the Heavenly Dao and the Dao Ancestor. He was still far from it in all aspects.
After flying to the Nine Heavens, Li Changshou suddenly realized.
The information contained in the wisp of Primordial Violet Qi was that Zhao Gongming had suffered a calamity. It was very likely that the Dao Ancestor had added it to the Primordial Violet Qi the moment Kun Peng swallowed him and the Primordial Violet Qi.
Is it a warning to me?
Li Changshou could not be sure about the exact details. He could only look at the intensity of the Dao Ancestor's punishment and what he said to him.
Um …
It was best not to let the Heavenly Punishment whip his buttocks happen. He should be going to the Purple Cloud Palace this time. There was no need for others to see him.
"Changgeng!"
A shout suddenly sounded beside his ear. Li Changshou stopped and turned around. He saw the Jade Emperor's incarnation riding a cloud from the side. His eyes were filled with worry.
Clearly, Quan Dong really understood this time.
This place was misty and there was no one else around. Li Changshou bowed and smiled. "Why are you here?"
"I'm naturally waiting for you." Quan Dong's expression was serious. He took the initiative to ask, "Do you need me to accompany you to the Purple Cloud Palace?"
After saying that, Quan Dong gave Li Changshou a look.
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Grandmaster has summoned me. He should only be lecturing me. Your Majesty, you don't have to worry.
Ah, I was too anxious at that time. I did not expect that the real Primordial Violet Qi would suddenly appear. At that time, I was in a hurry to appear and chase after him. I almost let Kun Peng go.
In the end, I had no choice but to extract the Primordial Violet Qi from Kun Peng's essence soul.
I was careless. "
"Alright."
Quan Dong smiled and said, "When we reach the Purple Cloud Palace, admit your mistakes. The Dao Ancestor is magnanimous and will not stoop to your level.
Now that the Celestial Court is facing trouble everywhere, you really can't do it. Go early and return early.
Don't contradict the Dao Ancestor. "
How could Li Changshou not know that the Jade Emperor was expressing his attitude to the Dao Ancestor for him?
His heart warmed. Li Changshou bowed deeply to Quan Dong and turned around to continue walking out of the Nine Heavens.
This body might not be allowed in this world, but it was enough to have a few fellow Daoists as confidants.
Quan Dong looked up at Li Changshou's back for a while. Then, he sighed and landed back in the Heavenly Palace.
At the same time, Yun Xiao stood on a beach on the Three-Immortal Island.
She, who had already changed into her long dress, folded the Daoist robe and placed it on her arm. She quietly looked at the sky in the northwest direction.
Her eyes were filled with worry.
Behind her, Qiong Xiao, Bi Xiao, and a few fairies who were cultivating on the island were tidying up the wine and immortal fruits to welcome her.
"Brother." Qiong Xiao raised her hand and hit Zhao Gongming's arm. She asked via voice transmission, "What's wrong with Sister?"
Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and hummed softly. He smiled and said, "She should be thinking of the person in her heart. After all, we've just been together for decades. It's normal for her to feel uncomfortable suddenly separating."
Qiong Xiao frowned when she heard that. She knelt on the meditation cushion with a worried look in her eyes.
"Brother, tell me …"
"What?"
Qiong Xiao asked via voice transmission, "Sister is marrying to the Grand White Palace. Will Fourth Sister and I go together?"
"Well …" Zhao Gongming could not answer for a moment. "It's up to you to discuss it yourself. However, that should be after the Great Tribulation. At that time, you can go wherever you want. There won't be as many restrictions as now."
"Ah, I hope so."
Qiong Xiao smacked her lips. "Anyway, I don't want to go, lest others gossip."
Zhao Gongming chuckled and did not say anything else.
Bi Xiao, who was at the side, called out softly. Yun Xiao turned around and floated over. Her expression had already returned to its usual coldness.
However, Zhao Gongming and the others did not know if it was an illusion, but Yun Xiao seemed to be gentler than usual. Her beautiful eyes were like water, and she spoke more than usual, causing Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao to sigh in admiration.
The topic of the immortals naturally could not avoid the current Cataclysm.
Yun Xiao specially instructed the fairies on the island not to go out in the next few hundred years. If they had a sudden urge to go out, it might be because of the calamity.
The fairies naturally agreed. Whether they listened or not was a matter for later.
Hanzhi sighed and said, "I wonder if my master's reincarnation will be affected by this Great Tribulation."
"That black leopard?"
Qiong Xiao held the luminous cup beside her face and smiled. "The Great Tribulation this time is facing the Jie, Chan, and the Western Sect. It has nothing to do with him.
Don't think too much. The reincarnation is no longer the same person. "
"Yes," Hanzhi agreed, but she still had that concern in her heart.
"By the way, Brother." Qiong Xiao casually threw a grape up and caught it accurately. She said casually, "A few years ago, Senior Sister Jin Ling seemed to have taken in a disciple called Wen something. She brought him to the Green Touring Palace to train him."
"Oh?"
Zhao Gongming smiled and asked, "Is it a male disciple or a female disciple?"
"A male disciple. I heard he's quite handsome."
Teng!
Zhao Gongming's figure instantly disappeared. He said that he was heading to the Green Touring Palace to visit his master and left behind a Cosmic Wave Mark.
Qiong Xiao blinked and muttered, "Are all disciples so guarded?"
Yun Xiao pondered for a while and said, "Brother doesn't have much confidence. Perhaps it has something to do with Senior Sister Jin Ling's unwillingness to talk about them publicly."
Bi Xiao whispered, "Let Junior Brother Changgeng come up with an idea. Junior Brother Changgeng has so many ideas."
"He's probably going to deal with a difficult problem now." Yun Xiao looked at the sky and said, "Let's plot this matter. Don't disturb him.
Later, I'll go and talk to Senior Sister Jin Ling and see what she's worried about.
Alright, don't talk about this behind my back. Have you gained anything from your cultivation recently? "
Great Fairy Yun Xiao took the opportunity to turn into a strict teacher. The two little fairies pursed their lips and looked bitter. They grumbled a little and began to show the results of their recent cultivation.
The sorrow and joy of living beings were reasonable. The sorrow and joy of the world were different.
Apart from homework, it was all about life.
…
In the Purple Cloud Palace, beyond the sky.
A stream of light flew out from the dense colorful clouds below the Purple Cloud Palace and transformed into Li Changshou's original appearance. He lifted the front of his Daoist robe and walked up the steps in front of the hall.
His face was flushed, and his forehead was covered in sweat. His eyes were filled with uneasiness.
Before he arrived in front of the hall, he had already lowered his head, closed his eyes, and cleared his throat. Only then did he quickly run past the last ten steps and rush into the empty hall of the Purple Cloud Palace.
"I, Li Changshou, am here to ask for punishment!"
His voice echoed in the hall. The figure that stopped behind the hall door stood quietly and maintained his Dao salute. He did not move at all.
He stood there for six hours.
A little cold sweat seeped out of Li Changshou's forehead. The cold sweat was evaporated by him.
His Adam's apple trembled irregularly, as if there was a ferocious beast that could take his life at any time.
He was a little too nervous, but he could not tell that he was acting.
Then, a sneer sounded from ahead. "Why? Has Lord Taibai Jinxing become a block of wood? Why are you standing there? "
Li Changshou hurriedly lowered his head and cupped his hands. "Grandmaster, I don't dare to move forward without summoning you."
"You don't dare?"
The voice was immediately angered. He cursed, "What else do you not dare to do!?!"
Li Changshou's legs turned limp. He knelt on the floor that contained starlight and hidden Dao marks and did not say a word.
In the hall, on the Dao Ancestor's extra-large meditation cushion, the burly Lao Dao slowly "grew" out of the streams of light.
He cursed angrily, "If you don't like the Primordial Violet Qi that I gave you, you can find a disciple of the Dao Sect to take it.
You even tried your best to transfer it to Kun Peng!
Do you think I don't know the background of Kun Peng? "
Li Changshou hurriedly said, "I definitely don't have such thoughts! When Kun Peng attacked that day, I suddenly saw the wisp of true Primordial Violet Qi and immediately lost my composure.
The Primordial Violet Qi is very important. This is an opportunity to become a Saint and an opportunity for living beings to transcend. I was afraid that the purple Qi would be snatched away by the Fiend Ancestors, so I put the matter of Kun Peng aside!
In order to kill Kun Peng previously, I had already invited the Grandmaster of Heaven. At that time, in order to protect the wisp of Primordial Violet Qi, I even violated my promise to the Saint! "
Dao Ancestor Hong Jun was silent for a while. He stared at Li Changshou, who was kneeling in front of the hall.
He said calmly, "You really didn't plan that?"
"Grandmaster, please understand." Li Changshou sighed and said, "You know my temperament. I have to plan before taking action. If I'm not confident, I will definitely not take action.
At that time, for some reason, the Primordial Violet Qi suddenly appeared. It was almost at the same time as the fake purple Qi that I had designed.
I initially admitted my mistake. It was only when the incarnation of the Jade Emperor beside me reminded me that I woke up from a dream.
At that time, I did not think much about it. I hurriedly protected one of the few opportunities to become a Saint in this world. This should be the opportunity of our Dao Sect. If those mighty figures snatch it, what would happen? "
"Heh."
The Dao Ancestor smiled and said, "Do you mean that I should reward you?"
"I don't dare to ask for a reward!"
Li Changshou buried his head again and said loudly, "I'm just doing what a disciple of the Dao Sect should do. Without the Dao Sect, there would be no disciples!"
"In that case, I will ask you again." The Dao Ancestor's aura became even stronger. "Why didn't you kill Kun Peng when you could?"
"This, this …
It's because I had previously promised the Grandmaster of Heaven that I would ask him to intercept Kun Peng. The condition was that I would not kill Kun Peng first and let him play with it. "
"Then why did you have to ask the Grandmaster of Heaven to take action? Could it be that you want to spare Kun Peng's life? "
"Grandmaster, please understand. Without the help of the Grandmaster of Heaven, I would not even have a 97% confidence in this plan.
Only when the Grandmaster of Heaven takes action will I have a 98% confidence in trapping Kun Peng! "
"Huh?"
Li Changshou felt a flash of light in front of him. He looked up and saw the Dao Ancestor standing in front of him with a gloomy expression.
This time, he really shivered.
"Kid, repeat what you said just now."
"Only when the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch takes action will I have 98% …"
Crack!
Purple lightning surged. The entire Purple Cloud Palace was filled with lightning. The three thousand Great Dao trembled slightly.
A moment later, Li Changshou lay on the ground, charred. His face was pressed against the smooth ground of the Purple Cloud Palace. He opened his mouth and spat out a small white essence soul. There were a few spiral patterns on its head.
The Dao Ancestor sat back on his meditation cushion and looked at Li Changshou in front of the hall in a carefree mood. He even hummed a happy tune.
"There's no feeling of striking others. It's different when I strike you. Come over. You've dealt with this matter."
Li Changshou jumped up like a carp and grinned at the Dao Ancestor. His black face revealed a mouthful of white teeth, making him look even more honest.
"Thank you for being magnanimous, Grandmaster. You don't mind that I lost the Primordial Violet Qi."
The Dao Ancestor snorted and said coldly, "This matter is not over. Why don't you bring Kun Peng back to the Primordial World?"
"I'm mainly worried about the image of the Celestial Court," Li Changshou hurriedly said. "Kun Peng is an ancient ferocious beast. Everyone has the right to kill it. If Kun Peng returns to the Three Realms to serve the Celestial Court or is rumored to have been subdued by me, the reputation of the Celestial Court will probably collapse."
"The reputation of the Celestial Court?"
The Dao Ancestor said coldly, "I think you've benefited from your hometown and used Kun Peng as a way out."
"This …"
Li Changshou's mind raced. He lowered his head and said, "Grandmaster, don't blame me. That's my personality. I'm afraid of death to a certain extent."
"You still know!"
"I naturally know this problem of mine." Li Changshou hurriedly said, "Grandmaster, don't worry. I will definitely stand firmly on the side of the Celestial Court. I will not be affected by the words of others."
"Actually, it's fine." The Dao Ancestor's expression was a little lonely. He said calmly, "Back then, when your hometown friend was destroyed, I had seen his memories and knew what he had left behind.
I originally thought that he would leave the Primordial World with Kun Peng when he knew that he would definitely lose. I did not expect …
He still came back in the end. "
Li Changshou did not answer and just stood quietly.
The Dao Ancestor asked, "Changgeng, how much do you know about this matter?"
"Well, I actually don't know much. I can roughly guess some things."
Li Changshou wiped his face and said seriously, "The past is over. Learning history is to learn from history and not to mock the ancients to satisfy your so-called vanity.
Grandmaster, from the clues left behind by that senior, I can tell that he knew that he was crazy and wrong. "
"There is no right or wrong in the world. It's just that we have different desires."
The Dao Ancestor sighed softly and looked at Li Changshou. He pointed casually.
The charred black around Li Changshou's body faded, and the damage to his Daoist robe recovered on its own.
Dao Ancestor Hong Jun said slowly, "I actually have my own selfish motives and desires.
The Pangu God once said that if he wanted to transcend, he had to give up on himself. Therefore, after the Pangu God returned to the world, he was already in the realm of no self and no matter. It could also be considered his own transcendence.
Changgeng, I …
I know that you have your own opinions and thoughts. However, there are only a few steps left before the world is established. You are the most suitable candidate.
Actually, you don't have to feel burdened. You don't have to think about it. I can give you a promise.
When you assist the Celestial Court in establishing the order of the Three Realms, I can allow you to be unrestrained if you want to live freely in the world. I'm most satisfied with your self-discipline and self-love.
If you want to embark on the path to find your hometown or cultivate in seclusion, I will also remind Hao Tian not to hold you back.
How about that? "
Li Changshou deliberately froze. Then, he looked happy and bowed deeply.
"Thank you for your kindness, Grandmaster! I really don't know how to repay you! "
"Alright, don't be hypocritical." Dao Ancestor Hong Jun waved his hand. "Remember what I told you last time. Go back.
The wisp of Primordial Violet Qi was swallowed by Kun Peng. The ninth wisp of Primordial Violet Qi is not in my hands. I can't give it to you even if I want to.
Assist the Celestial Court well and complete the matter of becoming a god. "
"Okay!"
Li Changshou agreed firmly and bowed. He lowered his head and took more than ten steps back before turning around and walking towards the door of the hall.
After taking hundreds of steps, the door of the hall was already in front of him. Li Changshou suddenly heard a shout behind him.
"Changgeng, do I look like this in your heart?"
Li Changshou subconsciously turned around and his Dao heart trembled.
He saw the Dao Ancestor sitting on the meditation cushion with a faint cold smile on his lips. His face was gloomy and indescribably ferocious and cold. The cold light in his eyes seemed to be able to pierce through his Dao heart.
Li Changshou pursed his lips and whispered, "Grandmaster, you scared me."
"Go." The Dao Ancestor wiped his face. His cold expression disappeared and he returned to his usual spring breeze. "Don't think too much."
"Okay."
Li Changshou lowered his head and walked out of the hall of the Purple Cloud Palace. He squinted and quickly looked fearful. He lowered his head and walked down the stairs.
