Chapter 330 - The Stern and Swift True Heavenly Emperor!
Chapter 330 The Stern and Swift True Heavenly Emperor!
The Jade Emperor…
Could it be that he really brought people to destroy the Golden Crow Palace? Li Changshou’s paper effigy returned to the Sea God Residence. He had been extremely worried.
At that moment, the Heavenly Courts had just taken over the dragon race. Before they turned the dragons into the Heavenly Courts’ assistants, most of the Heavenly Courts’ energy would be put into the dragon race.
It would be unwise to provoke the demons now.
To be safe, it was better to wait until there was nothing to worry about dragon race. The Heavenly Courts’ main body’s strength would increase by more than ten percent. Then, using Lu Ya’s matter as an entry point, he would incite the demons to fight against the Heavenly Courts. He would catch them and cause them to lose their sense of justice. He would take the opportunity to eliminate the negative karma demons and help the Heavenly Courts soar!
Yes, it was just a small scheme.
In the past, the prosperity of the Heavenly Courts did not have much to do with Li Changshou.
However, Li Changshou had set a major development path before the God-Conferment Tribulation. To a certain extent, he was already tied to the Heavenly Courts.
Of course, when Li Changshou took the initiative to tie himself to the Heavenly Courts, he had made preparations to retreat. “It’s not time to attack the demons yet. At the very least, we have to wait until after the arrival of the members of the Netherworld.”
Li Changshou pondered for a while and took out the memorial he had written at the Immortal Peach Banquet. He took out a new memorial and pondered carefully.
Before he could raise his brush, Zhao Gongming had already arrived at the Sea God Temple. Li Changshou could only pause it. He thought that it would take an hour or two, and the Jade Emperor would not be able to gather enough soldiers. Therefore, he put the matter aside for the time being
He decided to deal with Master Zhao first.
Zhao Gongming arrived on a cloud in front of the Sea God Temple. He was humming a random tune.
Li Changshou’s paper effigy was already waiting in the air. When he heard that tune, he subconsciously added some poems in his heart…
“I’ll secretly leave a secret behind in the summer –
He suddenly felt that Master Zhao had become much more unstable.
“Brother, Brother, I’m here!”
“Brother, please.” Li Changshou turned around and gestured for Zhao Gongming to enter the inner hall.
Zhao Gongming looked at the front hall and could not help but ask, “Is your temple playing with earth and wood again?”
“Now, I’m already the Water God. The Sea Gods are the Four Dragon Kings.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “To be safe, I’ll first erect the statues of the Four Sea Dragon Kings in all the Sea God Temples. Later, I’ll spread the story of the Dragon Kings’ efforts to rescue. This matter will be done in another ten to twenty years.” Zhao Gongming smiled and said, “Brother, you’re really thorough in your planning and executions. You can always spare a thought for others.”
“Brother, you’re too kind.” Li Changshou said humbly, “It’s just that I’m usually more worried. My thoughts are not worth mentioning.”
Zhao Gongming looked at the corner and saw that the desk had already been set up. He could not help but smile. He quickly walked behind the desk and picked up his brush… “How should I write this?”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Brother, write whatever you want to say to the Goddess of Golden Light.” Zhao Gongming thought for a while and fell into deep thought. “How about this? I’ll help you set up the atmosphere.”
As he spoke, a few ordinary paper effigies flew out of Li Changshou’s sleeve and turned into three men and two women. They began to play…
There were some lively songs circulating in Anshui City’s brothel. Zhao Gongming quickly smiled and said, “Let’s not talk about that. With more music, I can think more clearly.”
As he spoke, Zhao Gongming wrote the words “Junior Sister Golden Light’.
Afterwards… Zhao Gongming held his brush and leaned over the table. He did not start writing at all.
It’s not a still and the screen did not freeze.
“Brother Changgeng, how should I write it?”
“It’s fine.” Li Changshou smiled calmly. He put away his horsetail whisk, raised his sleeve, and fumbled in his sleeve. He then took out a few portraits and placed them in front of Zhao Gongming. Li Changshou smiled and said, “There are a few letter templates for males here. White is used for recipients whom you dislike. Light pink is for when you two are in the Favorable realm. Orange is used when the two of you are in the Budding Romance realm and Passion realm.”
“What about this yellow one?”
“It can only be used after you reach the Marriage realm.” Ding! Zhao Gongming gave him a thumbs-up. “Brother, you’re a genius. I’ll choose the one in white, um… the one that is light pink in color.”
At that moment, Zhao Gongming opened the scroll and saw a row of tiny words. He read them carefully and felt that his words were appropriate and presentable. He could find many points that he wanted to convey.
Not long after, Zhao Gongming was confident and began to write rapidly… Of course, there was a certain element of reference.
Li Changshou put away the other love letters and waited by the side with a smile. He did not look at what Zhao Gongming had written.
At most, he would take a few glances and think about Master Zhao’s talent in writing and literature.
All of a sudden…
“Brother, why did you prepare so many letters for women?”
Li Changshou replied with a smile, “After I parted with Fairy Yun Xiao that day, I went back and prepared these items…” He was guarding against the possibility of the immortals of Jie School coming to him and asking him how to pursue his beloved immortals.
Of course, he could not say the latter half of the sentence. Zhao Gongming smiled and said, “Thank you. I’ll consider it again.”
Li Changshou did not say anything and waited quietly. Zhao Gongming carefully read each word. However, he felt that he was not satisfied with the first version he had written, so he decided to write hundreds of words again.
His words were filled with respect. He only mentioned the Great Dao in between the lines.
At that moment, Li Changshou was certain that Master Zhao did not reject the Goddess of Golden Light because he could not swallow his pride or embarrass himself. He really did not have any feelings for her. The entire letter was just short of the sentence “You’re not my type.” After writing the letter, Zhao Gongming recited it softly and smiled. “At this moment, I actually feel relieved. My Dao heart is clear.” Li Changshou reminded, “Brother, it’s best if you hand this letter to the Goddess Jin Ling personally. Otherwise, she might suspect that it was written by someone else.” “Sure!”
Zhao Gongming rolled up his sleeves, picked up the letter, and bade farewell. He said that he would return later to talk to Li Changshou.
Li Changshou naturally agreed. He asked the Divine Envoys to prepare a banquet and drink with Master Zhao later.
His immortal senses looked at the mountain gate. Ling’e was counting the trees and stones in the mountain. The chess room was still lively.
Li Changshou had previously thought about how he would settle Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu and Junior Sister Toxic if he secretly left the Immortal Du Sect with Ling’e. The solution was very simple. Ling’e could just leave an old paper effigy in the Immortal Du Sect.
Moreover, according to Li Changshou’s plan, before the Great God-Conferment Tribulation began, those who were close to him would be sent to the Heavenly Courts in various forms to avoid the calamity.
Thinking about that, Li Changshou could not help but write a poem.
The Heavenly Courts is a safe haven. I should have come earlier to take care of things. Not only will I avoid disasters, but I will also be rewarded with merit! Yes, recently, I was careless. Ever since I recited the poem with Daoist Lu Ya, my ‘poetic abilities’ had declined greatly. How long until the Great God-Conferment Tribulation?
Li Changshou really did not know. He felt a sense of danger and could only wait for the signs to appear. The paper effigy sat in the hall. Li Changshou’s other paper effigy sat in the “Water God Residence” and began to draft the second memorial that he was going to submit today.
As soon as the letter was written, Princess Long Ji ran over to congratulate them and sent the Queen Mother’s second reward.
The first batch of rewards was still piled in the corner and had yet to be opened. Li Changshou accepted them all. He scanned them with his immortal senses. They were all beautiful jade treasures used to store some residences. Although they were expensive, they were not very useful. Long Ji looked at the memorial that Li Changshou had placed on the desk and smiled. “You’ve really worked hard. The Immortal Peach Banquet has just ended and you’re already starting a new memorial.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Since I’m in this position, I have to think of my own matters.”
“Well…”
Long Ji bit her lips and suddenly bowed to Li Changshou. “Thank you for your help previously, Water God! Although you do not allow me to address you as a teacher, in my heart, you are my master for life!” “Your Highness, please stand up.” Li Changshou raised his hand and supported her. He smiled and said, “His Majesty does not want to mention you in front of others previously because he wants to protect you, Your Highness. Your Highness, you should understand His Majesty’s efforts.” “Yes, I will…”
Long Ji pursed her lips and her eyes turned red. She gently wiped away the grievance and quickly regained her usual liveliness.
“Water God, are you going out again later?” Li Changshou said, “I won’t be going out for the next few days. You can cultivate at the Jade Pool in peace. If you go out and it’s not dangerous, I will send the Heavenly Soldiers to call you.” “Hehe, thank you, Water God! Then, I won’t disturb you from your work!” Long Ji bowed and left the Water God Residence.
Li Changshou watched as Long Ji left. Suddenly, he had a ridiculous thought…
If Li Changshou did not remember wrongly, the Goddess of Golden Light would become the Goddess of Lightning of the Heavenly Courts in the story of the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. She would be in charge of the lightning before thunder roared and remind the living beings that there would be thunder.
What happened on Golden Ao Island could be understood as:
The Goddess of Lightning is in love with the God of Fortune but the God of Fortune only treats her like a little sister. The bunch of bachelors from the Thunder Division are all gawking at her? Tsk, interesting
Li Changshou returned to the study and continued to focus on writing a memorial to persuade the demons.
This time, someone came to the Sea God Temple in Anshui City to disturb him. Moreover, the person who came was extraordinary. Li Changshou had no choice but to stop writing. Most of his attention was focused on the rear hall of the Sea God Temple.
Who arrived? He was dressed in a light yellow robe, and his beard and hair fluttered in the wind. He had a slender figure and a kind face. He looked to be in his forties or fifties, but he gave off an ancient vibe.
He was a famous and generous elder of Chan School. He was a professional in the Great God-Conferment Tribulation who was known to fail at everything he did…
Perfected Huang Long.
“Thank you, Sea God, for helping the dragon race! Thank you, Sea God, for helping the dragon race!” As soon as the two of them met, Perfected Huang Long bowed and shouted. Li Changshou did not dare to accept the gift directly. He kept bowing back. The two old men bowed to each other in the air for a while. The few Divine Envoys who were eating melon seeds and chatting below were amused.
After exchanging some pleasantries and entering the inner hall, Perfected Huang Long saw that the banquet had been prepared and could not help but be shocked.
The Sea God’s ability to deduce has actually reached such a stage. Had he predicted that I would come here today? Is this true!?!
Li Changshou smiled at the side and did not clear the misunderstanding. He invited Perfected Huang Long to the table and asked someone to add a set of cutlery and wine.
This time, Perfected Huang Long had come purely to thank Li Changshou. He said that it was all thanks to Li Changshou’s guidance.
At the very least, from the way Perfected Huang Long addressed him, he knew that the information that the Chan School had obtained was not comprehensive or accurate. Even though the specific position and the Divine Power Treasure had yet to be confirmed was now the Heavenly Courts’ Water God!
“Hahaha, Sea God, you’re really impressive.” Perfected Huang Long praised, “You fought the disciples of the Six Saints of the Western Sect during the Immortal Peach Banquet and rendered them speechless. You even invited the Grand Supreme Elder to personally defend you! Everyone in the Jade Void Palace is saying that the disciples of Chan School really admire
you!”
Li Changshou hurriedly said, “Senior, you’re being too serious. How is that a battle? It’s just a small interrogation according to the rules of the Heavenly Courts. I’m also very impressed by the two Saints of the Western Sect and the disciples of the Saints!”
Perfected Huang Long smiled.
“Yes, yes, I understand.”
As he spoke, the Perfected One sighed and said, “This Immortal Peach Banquet has determined the dragon race’s entry. It’s really a pity that I did not attend the ceremony.” Li Changshou was rendered speechless. He was blaming Li Changshou for not inviting him to the banquet. Li Changshou smiled and said, “Senior, you might not know, but I did not want the experts of the three sects to go to the Heavenly Courts this time. That would put too much pressure on the dragon race. It would also make the Jade Emperor feel that the power of the Heavenly Courts alone is not enough to make the dragon race submit. Therefore, I did not send an invitation to you, Senior. Senior Gongming went to the Heavenly Courts because he had other matters to attend to. It was convenient for him to go there during the Immortal Peach Banquet.”
Perfected Huang Long could not help but ask with a smile, “Oh? Why did Junior Brother Gongming go to the Heavenly Courts?”
“He had to see Elder Moon for some personal matters.”
“Elder Moon?”
Perfected Huang Long’s eyes lit up. He exchanged glances with Li Changshou before coming to a realization.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Gongming’s figure appeared hundreds of kilometers away and rushed towards Anshui City on a cloud.
Seeing the smile on Master Zhao’s face and his beard trembling, Li Changshou knew that Zhao Gongming should have given the letter to the Goddess of Golden Light and returned.
When Master Zhao arrived, Li Changshou asked a few questions. It was not out of his expectations. Zhao Gongming found the Goddess of Golden Light and smiled while saying, “Junior Sister, here you go.” He then threw the letter at her and ran away. He used his mystical abilities to teleport back.
Regardless of the content of the letter, that scene resembled love.
“Come!”
Zhao Gongming was in high spirits. “This matter is over. Senior Brother Huang Long is also here! Today, we should drink three hundred cups of wine. There’s no need to be sentimental in the Ming Dynasty!”
At that moment, Li Changshou and Perfected Huang Long raised their cups and exchanged toasts. They were happy and harmonious.
About an hour later, Zhao Gongming and Perfected Huang Long were chatting passionately. Li Changshou was distracted and continued to write his memorial. For some reason, he was worried that the Jade Emperor would act too quickly and draft the memorial first.
Then, he checked the words, deliberated over the sentences, and perfected it. Only then did he dry the ink and carry the two memorials with him to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall.
When he arrived in front of the hall, he did not need to report or ask any questions. He activated the halo of an ordinary minister and went straight to the Jade Emperor without any obstructions.
“Your Majesty… Your Majesty?”.
“Huh?”
The white-robed Jade Emperor, who was holding his forehead with one hand and seemed to be taking a nap because he was too tired from reading the memorial, immediately returned to his senses.
Li Changshou thought to himself, Oh no! This situation was very similar to him being disturbed when he was wholeheartedly controlling the paper effigy! The Jade Emperor smiled and said, “Minister Changgeng, is there anything urgent?”
“Your Majesty.” Li Changshou hurriedly took out the second memorial. “I’ve been thinking carefully about the matter regarding the demon race. I felt that there was something amiss, so I drafted a memorial. Your Majesty, please take a look!”
Li Changshou used his immortal power to push the memorial onto the desk.
The Jade Emperor picked it up and looked at it carefully. At first, he kept nodding. When he saw the latter half of the letter, he frowned and muttered, “If you consider it that way, I really can’t kill the remnants of the Demon Court… Quick!”
“Huh?” Li Changshou deliberately looked confused.
“Nothing, nothing. Please wait a moment, beloved subordinate.”
The Jade Emperor hurriedly closed his eyes and placed his attention elsewhere.
His incarnation almost brought a group of soldiers and his backup subordinates to secretly ascend to the Sun…
