Li Changshou never expected that the romantic Casanova from the future would have his karma born at this moment…
This time, General Dongmu was there to express his gratitude towards Li Changshou.
As soon as the two of them met in the mountain, General Dongmu heaved a huge sigh of relief.
“His Majesty! His Majesty, he… he smiled at me!”
Li Changshou was a little worried. He thought that something had happened to one of his future backers.
Then, Dong Mugong let out a long sigh and talked about how difficult it had been for him in the past tens of thousands of years.
He was just an ordinary immortal. At the end of the Great Magi-Demon War and the rise of the humans, he had contributed a lot to the human race. He had obtained a lot of merit and was chosen by the Saint to become General Dongwang who had established the Heavenly Courts.
The Jade Emperor was the child in front of the Dao Ancestors. He addressed the Saints as his senior brothers and had never revealed his cultivation level.
How many lives did he have to fight for power with the Jade Emperor?
General Dongmu had been conscientious and stepping on eggshells for a long time. He had not slept well for a day at all… although he did not need to sleep.
A few days ago, General Dongmu got married to a female immortal whom he had known for a long time. He had asked the Jade Emperor to give him a letter.
“His Majesty, the Jade Emperor’s smile is actually so bright and clear…”
General Dongmu let out a long breath and stood up to bow to Li Changshou. “Thank you for your help, Fellow Daoist. If you have any tasks for me, I will do my best!” Li Changshou shook his head with a smile. However, he was still worried and asked about the details of what General Dongmu had done previously.
Fortunately, he had asked that question…
Li Changshou was overwhelmed with helplessness when he heard General Dongmu say “I want them all.”
“Fellow Daoist, you can’t have too many. The reputation of being loyal is equally important. Fellow Daoist, if you are married to a fairy today, will you accept another marriage tomorrow?”
Dong Mugong smiled and said, “Of course, I’ll accept them all. It’ll only be stable if I have more.”
“Then, won’t the writing that the Jade Emperor rewarded you with, become a joke?”
r rewa
Li Changshou sighed and continued, “To me, being overly sentimental is better than being overly promiscuous but being loyal is better than being overly sentimental… Fellow Daoist, what you are most afraid of is His Majesty thinking too much. In that case, why did you take that redundant step and shoot yourself in the foot?”
“T-this…”
General Dongmu stood up and paced back and forth, looking troubled. “I was thinking that it’s safer to have more people.”
“That’s not what being stable is about.” Li Changshou pondered and continued, “Fellow Daoist, this matter can be salvaged, but this is the last time I’m going to give you ideas regarding this matter. I should not be meeting you privately. Do you understand, Fellow Daoist?”
“Of course I understand.” General Dongmu bowed and Li Changshou stood up to return the greeting.
At that moment, Li Changshou could only help Old General Dongmu make his future plans.
It was nothing more than just setting up a loyal persona. It would be best if he could ask for a title for his wife and fabricate some romantic stories that could be spread in the Heavenly Courts.
General Dongmu, who was originally only interested in cultivating the Dao and supporting the Jade Emperor, was trying his best to absorb the “knowledge” imparted to him by Li Changshou, his adviser.
Gradually, General Dongmu began to feel… enlightened…
At the end of the conversation, General Dongmu could actually draw inferences from a single point that Li Changshou mentioned.
Perhaps, that was the talent of being the previous incarnate of a pure Yang Immortal…
“I forgot to ask around and find out who General Dongmu is marrying now.”
In the straw hut, Li Changshou lifted the front of his Daoist robe and stood up from the meditation cushion. He stretched slightly.
Then, he continued on his journey to the straw hut next door.
The word ‘love’ resulted in lots of karma…
The mighty General Dongmu, a powerful immortal of the Heavenly Courts, had accumulated countless merits and was appointed by the Sage. However, he was now uneasy because of love.
Of course, most of the uneasiness was a result of General Dongmu’s authority.
His master had lost his foundation to become an immortal because of love. Now, he was depressed and refused to come out of the straw hut. He was utterly dejected.
Huh?
Why did Master… fall asleep again…
Li Changshou undid the array formation on his own. He cleared his throat and shouted into the house, “Master, I have something to discuss with you.”
“Oh?”
Qi Yuan quickly opened the wooden door. Although he was full of energy, his expression and gaze were still a little gloomy. “Come in. What’s the matter?”
“Master, do you know about the Three Sects’ Meet?” Li Changshou smiled and asked.
Qi Yuan finally revealed a smile. Previously, Ling’e had reported the good news regarding the sect competition. He was very happy that his two disciples were that hardworking.
Naturally, Qi Yuan had also guessed that his little disciple’s so-called six-levels-in-on-go-advancement should have been the exposure of her true cultivation level…
“I naturally know about the meet. Could it be that an elder has recommended Ling’e to participate?” “Why did Ling’e go?”
Li Changshou explained, “Master, there’s no benefit in going to the Three Sects’ Meet. The journey on the clouds is going to be a long one. It won’t be a good thing to end up causing trouble because of a careless mistake.”
Qi Yuan frowned.
“Disciple, you’re good in everything except this. You’re always only looking at the palm-sized land of our Little Qiong Peak. Going to the Three Sects’ Meet would be a fight for glory in the sect and bringing fame to the Immortal Du Sect! It’s a great honor to be able to attend the event with an expert in the sect. How can you talk about benefits!?!”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Anyway, if there were elders in the sect who recommended Ling’e, he could just pretend to be sick and ask Ling’e to stay and take care of him.
Actually, the conference was still far away. There was not a clear date and time yet. It would probably happen only in another thirty to fifty years.
“Master, let’s not talk about this. I have something to ask of you today.”
Seeing that his master was about to start nagging, Li Changshou quickly changed the topic and explained to his master.
And so on…
An hour later, the door of the straw hut opened and two figures walked out.
The person on the left had an ordinary, slender figure and a handsome face. His long hair was ordinarily elegant. Naturally, he was Li Changshou.
The person on the right was slightly shorter and had a middle-aged face. There was a look of dejection in his eyes, and his forehead was covered in some wrinkles that did not seem like they could be removed…
Qi Yuan restored his middle-aged appearance. He changed into a light blue robe and seemed to be in good spirits.
Li Changshou’s ordinary appearance was actually a half-disguise.
Qi Yuan’s ordinary appearance came from within…
Li Changshou bowed and said, “Please, Master.”
Old Daoist Qi Yuan, no… he was already Daoist Priest Qi Yuan!
Daoist Priest Qi Yuan forced a smile and rode a cloud towards the sect. He was going to settle a small issue that his disciple had given him.
In his heart, he recalled what Li Changshou had said just now…
“Master, previously, I used your appearance and eliminated demons outside with Uncle-Master Jiu Wu. That might have very well caused some hidden dangers. Therefore, Master, you can’t use your usual appearance when you go out. Master, why don’t you return to your middle-aged appearance and carry this incense pouch that conceals your aura with you? That way, you will be safe.”
Qi Yuan did not think too much about it. He acted according to his disciple’s instructions and left the sect on a cloud. He headed towards the nearest town, Linhai Town…
Li Changshou chuckled in his heart.
Of course, he could not do such things in the sect. It would easily cause trouble.
Li Changshou first sent a voice transmission to Ling’e to tell her to deal with the visitors, if there were any.
Then, he hid in the secret underground chamber of the Pill Chamber and focused his attention on the three paper effigies.
A paper effigy carried an army of paper effigies and tracked his master underground.
Since his master had gone out, he had to put up a defense.
A paper effigy stared at Elder Wan Linyun. Li Changshou felt that Elder Wan Linyun might suffer some setbacks this time. The other paper effigy was naturally hiding in the pouch in his master’s sleeve. He was holding two pills and waiting for the moment to appear.
Master is riding the clouds…
He’s so slow.
Three days later, Daoist Priest Qi Yuan slowly landed at the north gate of Linhai Town and queued up to enter.
The group of paper effigies stopped outside the Five-Element Great Array. At that moment, his master still had the ‘Human’ paper effigy with him. The paper effigies would provide support.
As soon as his master entered the city, Li Changshou began to secretly search for someone who could “encourage” his master. He did not want his master to get embroiled with a new marriage. He just wanted his master to know this…
“You are still very charming and you can easily gain the favor of the female Qi Refinement cultivators.”
Soon, Li Changshou realized that the Anti-Reconnoitering Pill had been triggered. He immediately found the spot where the spiritual mist was.
Why is it an old Daoist?
Li Changshou shook his head and allowed the wisp of spiritual mist to dissipate. Using the paper effigy, he continued to accompany his master.
The effects of the pills were limited. They could not be wasted easily.
Daoist Priest Qi Yuan did not think much of it. He headed straight to the street where stalls that sold spirit herbs and herbs were set up.
After his master covered a distance of about 300 feet, Li Changshou finally found the first female Essence Immortal who used her immortal senses to scrutinize his master. She looked like a young Essence Immortal who was about 24 or 25 years old.
It’s you, Big Sister.
In the pouch, the paper effigy used its thin paper hand to remove the restrictions on the Flame of Heart Spirit Pill.
Daoist Priest Qi Yuan had only walked fifteen steps… “Fellow Daoist… can you wait?”
“Huh?”
Daoist Priest Qi Yuan turned around and frowned at the female Essence Immortal who had called out to him. He cupped his hands and asked, “Fellow Daoist, may I help you?”
“You.” The female immortal blushed. She grabbed a handkerchief and covered her face with it. She said softly, “Can we go to a secluded place? I have something to say to you.”
Qi Yuan was obviously stunned for a moment. He became vigilant. “I have nothing to say to you, Fellow Daoist.”
Then, he strode forward.
“Fellow Daoist…”
The female Essence Immortal chased after him for two steps. Her mind was in a daze, but she managed to escape from the situation just now.
She thought that it was strange. When she saw the images in her heart, she quickly covered her face and left.
Li Changshou had only revealed the Flame of Heart Spirit Pill for a while and quickly sealed
Qi Yuan had just taken a few steps when he heard a gentle and soft greeting from the side.
“Fellow Daoist…”
Qi Yuan turned around and saw a valiant female Qi Refinement cultivator who was holding a sword and bowing to him.
The person said gently, “Can you accompany me to the teahouse nearby?”.
“I still have important matters to attend to. My disciple is seriously injured and needs herbs. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
Qi Yuan bowed and continued to walk forward. However, he began to suspect something
With my current looks, and my dejected and depressed temperament… how can I be so popular?
However, the fact that he had turned down the two female Qi Refinement cultivators had attracted quite a lot of attention.
After that, several beautiful figures came from the side, front, and back of the short street, one after another. “Daoist Priest, where did you come from? Where are you going?”.
“Fellow Daoist, please wait for me.” “Fellow Daoist, why aren’t you looking at me?”
Qi Yuan was completely stunned. He could only reject them continuously. He even covered his face and walked forward with his head lowered.
What’s wrong with this town?
I haven’t been out in a long time. Since when have the people of the East Continent become so open-minded?
In the dark, the paper effigy that Li Changshou had entrusted his mind to wiped his “sweat”.
“Hey! Fellow Daoist!”
Suddenly, he heard a greeting from someone with a hoarse voice. A metal tower appeared in front of Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan looked up and saw a ten-feet tall “woman” in front of him. She seemed to have worked out hard and her arms were thicker than his waist, but at that moment, she was staring at him with eyes that were as big as bronze bells.
“Let’s not beat around the bush. I like you. Come back to my Cave Abode and be my Dao companion!”
Qi Yuan frowned and said hurriedly, “Fellow Daoist, did you get the wrong person?”.
Li Changshou frowned. He did not “burn” that female Daoist either…
Huh?
Li Changshou’s attention was fixed on the paper effigy in the pouch. The corners of his lips suddenly twitched. He saw that the Flame of Heart Spirit Pill in the paper effigy’s hand was burning.
At that moment… it shattered!
What is going on? It was still intact a moment ago!
Could it be that I had activated the restrictions too many times, and the medicinal properties of the pills have become unstable, so they shattered?
What happens after the pill shatters?
Normally, it seemed like there was a slight outbreak of medicinal properties… Li Changshou spread his immortal senses and his expression changed. “Master, leave quickly! Hurry and put away the pouch!”
Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment. Then, he reacted and hurriedly put the pouch back into his storage Dharma treasure in his sleeve.
At that moment, a sweet voice came from within a thousand feet. Dozens of figures looked at Qi Yuan.
“Daoist Priest…”
“Fellow Daoist…”
“Fellow Daoist!”
At the corner of the street, an old Daoist priest with a righteous expression suddenly took out a handkerchief from his sleeve. “Fellow Daoist, do you mind if I become your Dao companion? The kind that only cultivates with you.”
Qi Yuan’s legs trembled… “You guys, don’t come over!” Boom! Boom!
A series of muffled sounds suddenly spread from the ground.
Someone shouted, “Fellow Daoists, be careful! The spiritual beasts on the Spiritual Beast Street are in a riot!”
