My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 299 Secret Trump Card

After the black leopard demon gave him his blessing, a few demons returned while chatting and laughing Li Changshou hid in the dark and observed. Then, he realized that the demons were only returning to their own Cave Abodes. The Cave Abode was hidden in the shallow valley.

The few demons had “accidentally” discovered the Cave Abode that the black leopard demon had just opened. They immediately sent their sincere greetings to their neighbors.

They had captured the water demon and hit the black leopard demon. Just as they were about to humiliate the water demon in front of the black leopard, a breeze blew past. The demons rolled their eyes and fell to the ground. Their auras dissipated and their demon cores lost their color.

It was just a Heaven Immortal realm demon that was leading a few demons in the Perfected Immortal realm. Li Changshou’s Golden Immortal paper effigy was very simple…

He used poisonous powder and incapacitating agents to deal with them.

If he could not waste immortal power, he would not waste it. That was the manual for the paper effigy.

Then, Li Changshou appeared outside the Cave Abode on a cloud and chuckled.

The leopard demon dragged the water demon, Miao Miao, out. When it saw Li Changshou, it bent its legs and knelt down.

“Thank you, Senior, for saving me! Senior, you’re really…” “Shut up!” Li Changshou and the demoness shouted almost at the same time.

The black leopard shivered and smiled bitterly.

Li Changshou continued, “Don’t think about congratulating me in your head. I’m unlucky and can’t take it.”

The black leopard did not know whether to laugh or cry. It could only kowtow repeatedly.

“Thank you for saving my life, Senior! Please come in and rest!”

Li Changshou nodded calmly and said earnestly, “Ah Bao, I saved you once. Perhaps I can save you a second time, but I might not be able to save your life a third or fourth time. I’ll leave now. You and your wife can cultivate here in peace. Don’t say anything else… It’s better to be down-to-earth and do everything well, one by one. Let your actions speak louder than words. Do you understand?”

The black leopard fell into deep thought and bowed deeply. “I understand!”

Following that, Li Changshou looked at the water demon Miao Miao with a complicated gaze.

He felt a little puzzled and asked, “I’m a little puzzled. Why did your wife… Could it be that you’re unhappy with your wife!?!”

“Senior, you’ve misunderstood. My wife was being grateful to you…”

Crack!

With a crisp sound, the black leopard’s head flew towards the left. Its body spun in a straight line from its head to its feet 36 times!

The hand, which was as fast as an illusion, maintained the final pause in its slapping motion. Then, it was calmly retracted and replaced by the other hand that was placed on the hem of its owner, the Water Demon Miaomiao’s skirt.

She smiled in embarrassment and whispered, “Senior, you’re quick.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

Ah Bao quickly got up and wiped the corners of his eyes with his swollen right cheek.

“I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you, Senior.”

“Very good.” Li Changshou nodded calmly and said, “I’ll leave now. Ah Bao, just focus on your cultivation.”

“Senior! Senior!”

The black leopard shouted and stopped Li Changshou. Then, it asked nervously, “Senior, can you tell me the truth? Do you like my communication skills? If you like it, I will definitely repay you for saving my life just now…”

Li Changshou shouted, “Wait!”

The Black Panther Spirit quickly shut up and swallowed his words.

“I don’t want you to be loyal to me. You have nothing to do with me.” Li Changshou deliberated over his words. “I’m not plotting anything against you. I also know that your mouth is not effective if you deliberately want it to work.

To be honest, I just find your mystical ability a little strange.

A talent like you is needed for the great prosperity of the demon race.

“You can cultivate here in peace. You will naturally have a place to shine and prosper after nurturing demons for a thousand years. Take these pills and use them to assist you and your wife in their cultivation.”

The black leopard demon was touched and bowed to Li Changshou with a Dao salute again.

Li Changshou turned around to leave and flew into the sky on a cloud.

The black leopard demon shouted, “Senior, can you leave your name?”

He heard a voice coming from the clouds.

“I’m a cultivator myself. Don’t ask about the affairs of the world. Just call me Daoist Lu Ya.”

The black leopard demon muttered softly and praised, “Senior Lu Ya is really…

I can’t say, I can’t say. Phew!

Milady, quickly get a memorial tablet and write down the name of this senior. Although I can’t open my mouth to wish or think about it, I can still set up a memorial tablet and offer incense every day.”

“Husband.” The water demon, Miao Miao, walked forward and said softly, “It’s all because of your natural mystical abilities. We have been taken care of by an expert.” “The good days are still… Ahem! Ahem!”

The black leopard shut up in time and said, “I will deal with the corpse first. Madam, go and set up the memorial tablet.”

“Yes.” The water demon, Miao Miao, answered in a low voice. The couple immediately got busy. On the other side, Li Changshou naturally did not go far. When he heard the black leopard’s words, he smiled and squinted…

He had left two paper effigies there to protect and monitor the black leopard demon in the future.

He thought about the matter of the Heavenly Courts killing demons.

The time was not ripe yet.

To put it bluntly, the Heavenly Courts were not considered a high-end combat force. The overall strength of the troops was not even comparable to the overall strength of the demons. How could they defeat the demons?

The deep-sea demons were just a branch of the demon race. Furthermore, they had lost a large number of experts during the battle with the dragon race. It was easy to deal with them.

However, the remnants of the Demon Court at the border of the North Continent and the Aparagodānīya Continent did not lack powerful experts from the older generation. To the current Heavenly Courts, this was a nightmare.

Demon-Slaying was just a plan for the Heavenly Courts to make a name for themselves and earn merit in the future. The black leopard would be considered a strategic-level Dharma treasure.

Later, I will deceive… Ahem, I will nurture this black leopard’s approval of the demon race. I will make the black leopard shut his mouth and meditate. Then, he will sincerely seek refuge from some powerful demon kings.

He will use his toxicity to destroy the demons’ bank!

Li Changshou thought for a while and asked the two paper effigies who were monitoring the black leopard to stay further away from it.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was very careful with such a double-edged sword.

On Little Qiong Peak, while Li Changshou was tracking the black leopard, the place had already quietened down.

Li Changshou was not optimistic about Lingle’s ascension. After all, she lacked experience and hardships. Most importantly, although she had strengthened her Dao base according to his method, there were still many gaps and flaws.

At most, she could only ascend to the intermediate stage to late-stage of the Perfected Immortal realm.

Originally, Jiu Jiu had prepared all kinds of celebratory programs to celebrate Lingle’s successful ascension. However, because Ling’e was in seclusion, she pushed all of them back.

Youqin Xuanya, on the other hand, felt the pressure. Ling’e began to enter seclusion, and so did she. It seemed that she did not want to fall behind Ling’e.

That day, Li Changshou had just settled the matter regarding the black leopard. He opened the furnace in the Pill Chamber to refine pills and analyze… The word ‘go’. The methods of the Saint were definitely not something that he could imagine.

Actually, he did not need to think about what the Saint wanted him to do.

The Saint had escaped the shackles of the Great Dao. He sat on the shore of the long river of time and looked at the living beings in the Sea of Misery who were constantly hesitating. What they saw was different from what the living beings understood.

At that moment, Li Changshou had no choice but to make that assumption. As long as he had come into contact with the black leopard at that time, no matter what choice he made, be it plotting against the black leopard, using it, or killing it, it would all lead to the story that the Saint had seen. No matter what kind of guesses or schemes he had in his heart, as long as the Saint did not interfere directly, it meant that he had not deviated from the development path set by the Saint.

In terms of how to become an outstanding Saint’s pawn and this game… When can I jump out?

There is no need to be a chess player. It would be good to just hide far, far away.

Most of the power of the True Samadhi Flames in the Pill Furnace had been reduced. The few precious pills inside were already on the verge of taking shape. A few figures flew over from the Heaven-Breaking Peak. Li Changshou pondered for a while and continued to focus on refining pills. He closed the array formation outside the Pill Chamber.

Those precious pills were the “Soul-Strengthening Pills” that were refined for Xiong Lingli. They were used to make up for the deficiencies of the Magihuman race’s Connate Essence Soul, so that her strength could increase quickly.

Now, the captain of the Little Qiong Peak’s security team had become the third last in terms of strength. That did not make sense.

By the way, the one in the last place would definitely be…

Jiu Yushi.

His master will never be last!

Exalted Wang Qing rode a cloud while Jiang Lin’er followed beside him. Jiu Wu stood behind and they arrived at the Pill Chamber of Little Qiong Peak together.

Jiang Lin’er shouted, “Changshou, are you refining pills?”

“Grandmaster, Uncle-Grandmaster, Aunt-Master, please enter and wait for a while. I will be done with this batch of pills in a moment.”

Li Changshou said warmly. Exalted Wang Qing smiled and nodded. He was a little impressed that Li Changshou did not choose to waste the pills to welcome them.

Although he was a Golden Immortal in the sect, it was not a big deal.

Soon, Li Changshou retracted the flames and slowly opened a crack on the lid of the pitch-black furnace. It emitted some medicinal fragrance and sealed the furnace, allowing the pills to settle in.

Li Changshou turned around and bowed with a Dao salute.

“I was rude.”

“It’s fine.” Exalted Fugui waved his hand. Jiu Wu had already brought two chairs over for his master and master’s wife to take a seat.

Jiang Lin’er cleared her throat and smiled. “Little Changshou, I’m here to talk to you about Ling’e’s cultivation. He specially called me over to make you feel at ease. Don’t deceive

me.”

Li Changshou said seriously, “Grandmaster, you’re being too serious. Why would I lie to

you?”

At most, he would make some arrangements.

Jiu Wu chuckled and looked like he was watching a show.

Exalted Wang Qing asked, “When Ling’e transcended the tribulation, I was cultivating in seclusion. I didn’t see her. I heard from Lin’er that she transcended the nine-stage Heavenly Tribulation?”

“Yes.”

“What about you?”

Exalted Wang Qing asked calmly. There was a threatening look in his eyes. Li Changshou was slightly nervous. He said softly, “My aptitude seems to be inferior to Junior Sister’s.” “Really?” Jiang Lin’er crossed her legs and smiled. “I don’t believe you.”

From the looks of it, Grandmaster Jiang Lin’er was going to ask about him today.

It was not difficult to crack such a trick.

If they were reasonable, he would be the one to stir up the emotions. If they were the ones to stir up the emotions, he would reason with them.

“Grandmaster, Uncle-Grandmaster,” Li Changshou said firmly. “I was raised by Master and I have always been focused on cultivation.

en if I have some achievements now, I don’t dare to forget his kindness. Grandmaster, you should be able to sense it. Ever since you returned to the sect, have I done anything to harm the sect? The reason Ling’e’s Dao base is so deep is indeed because I had taught her wholeheartedly. She had also used extremely precious and hard-earned pills! I really don’t want anything. I only want Little Qiong Peak to forever be in peace. I only want my friends and relatives to be safe!”

The Nine Revolutions Golden Pill was still at Ling’e’s place. Ling’e had not seen her senior brother after her Tribulation Transcendence.

His words were sincere. It really made Jiang Lin’er feel guilty and made Exalted Wang Qing feel emotional. Jiu Wu, the short Daoist, looked up and sighed. His eyes were slightly red.

“Changshou, don’t say anymore,” Jiang Lin’er said gently. “I know you’re worried sick about the Little Qiong Peak. You’re also worried sick about your master and junior sister but…”

Jiang Lin’er smiled slyly. “Today, we’re not here to ask you about your cultivation level. A straightforward person would not do anything shady! Do you see the Golden Immortal beside me? I’m here to fulfill my promise to tie you up and throw you into Ling’e’s room!”

As she spoke, Jiang Lin’er puffed out her chest and raised her head. She even patted her chest loudly. “I, Jiang Lin’er, mean what I say. Since I’ve said this, I have to do it!”

Exalted Wang Qing nodded slowly and said, “I’ll help you with what you said, Milady.”

Jiu Wu took out an immortal rope and smiled. “Changshou, look… It’s quite difficult for me to do it. After all, it’s Master’s instructions.”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

What a good move! It caught him off guard!

However, that was not a problem for him.

Li Changshou frowned and suddenly exclaimed, “Sect Leader, why are you here?” Exalted Wang Qing, Jiang Lin’er, and Jiu Wu turned to look at the same time. Li Changshou tapped his feet lightly and turned into a wisp of green smoke. He instantly used Earth Escape and retreated into the outer array formation.

Jiu Wu also heard a voice transmission.

“Uncle-Master, if you’re loyal, you’ll take the initiative to chase after me!”

Exalted Wang Qing chuckled. “This little disciple is actually so sly.” “Master! I will go and chase after them!” Jiu Wu shouted. Without waiting for his master and master’s wife to nod, he grabbed the immortal rope and rushed out.

Just as Exalted Wang Qing was about to move forward, he saw a brocade pouch embroidered with the word ‘joy’ on the ground. He stretched out his hand and picked up the brocade pouch. There was a pill inside. Li Changshou must have been in a hurry and accidentally dropped it.

“Lin’er, let’s go…”

“Husband!”

Jiang Lin’er suddenly shouted softly at the side. She grabbed Exalted Wang Qing’s arm with both hands. Jiang Lin’er’s eyes were filled with a little confusion. She said in a low voice, “Let’s go back first and let him off temporarily…”

“Lin’er, what’s wrong?”

“Quickly bring me back using your escape technique.”

Exalted Wang Qing was confused. However, he did as he was told. The two of them turned into a beam of light and flew back to the Heaven-Breaking Peak in the blink of an eye.

In the array formation outside the Pill Chamber, Li Changshou and Jiu Wu looked over…

Jiu Wu asked in confusion, “What pill was that?”

“It’s an Immortal Sense Spirit Pill called the Flame of Heart Pill,” Li Changshou said calmly. “If the person you love is holding it, you will not be able to resist at all.”

Jiu Wu could not help but gasp. “What a powerful Spirit Pill!”

Li Changshou took out two bottles of pills

It was a solid third-grade Spirit Pill. Its effect was three times that of the Poisonous Dragon Wine. Most importantly, its medicinal properties could be continuously released.

“It’s a new product. Use it well and keep it a secret.”

“Understood!”

Jiu Wu snapped his fingers and grabbed the pill. He immediately laughed out loud.

This time, he had come with his master and master’s wife. It was exactly as he had expected. His master and master’s wife were easily sent away. Disciple-Nephew Changshou would even thank him with a gift.

Amazing, amazing!

“Changshou…”

“Uncle-Master, wait a moment.” Li Changshou frowned slightly. He suddenly had an impulse.

He pinched his fingers and calculated. His spiritual will landed in the Sea God Temple of Anshui City and saw a familiar white-robed young man. He could not help but be surprised.
