Chapter 527 - Long Ji Becomes A Disciple!

Chapter 527 Long Ji Becomes A Disciple!

Li Changshou was most touched by the Grand Supreme Elder’s praise during the Jade Pool Immortal Banquet. However, what left the deepest impression on Li Changshou was not the beautiful dance of Fairy Heng’e, who had rushed over later. It was also not the exciting sword dance of Ling Zhuzi and Yu Tu, but…

The congratulatory gift from Gongming. At that time, Chang’e was singing and dancing happily. The atmosphere of the banquet was thick. Ling Zhuzi and Yu Tu had yet to appear. Zhao Gongming rushed over. The armor on his body was not the usual one. There was still a hint of blood on the inner shirt that he was wearing.

If the old man had not seen Li Changshou and raised his eyebrows and grinned, Li Changshou would have thought that something bad had happened.

Zhao Gongming was about to walk around Chang’e, who was dancing, when he suddenly sensed an unusual Dao rune. He looked up and trembled.

He was in a hurry and did not notice that the Grand Supreme Elder was there!

Zhao Gongming hurriedly went to the side of the platform and bowed. He then bowed to the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. Then, he lowered his head and walked to Li Changshou’s side. Under the gazes of the surrounding immortals and gods, he sat beside Li Changshou and could not help but smile.

“Changgeng, I got you a huge treasure!”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless. His tone and attitude were very similar to those people in the pugilistic world in his previous life who had set up stalls and sold small flash drives filled with learning materials. Zhao Gongming took out a two-foot-long black rod from his sleeve and placed it in front of Li Changshou.

At that moment, the black rod was sealed by Zhao Gongming. It seemed to be as light as a feather and as charred as charcoal. However, after sensing it slightly, it contained a mysterious and simple aura and a faint pressure. Li Changshou only stared at it a few times before a few images appeared in the corner of his Dao heart… He saw countless living beings surging in the sea of blood. Countless living souls in the world were torn apart by a spear! At that moment, the black rod looked like the spine of a mountain. It had been condensed into two feet long by the great mystical ability. That familiar aura…

Such rich killing power…

At the side, Perfected Du’e, the knowledgeable, tight-lipped, and recognized disciple of Ren School, said in surprise, “Could this be a fragment of the God-Slaying Spear formed from the roots of the Chaos Green Lotus?”

“The importance of being the side character to ease the awkward atmosphere.”

“That’s right.” Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and chuckled. He recalled something and looked at his second sister beside Li Changshou guiltily.

Seeing that Yun Xiao’s expression was normal, Zhao Gongming was relieved. He would rather be beaten by his master a hundred times than anger Yun Xiao. Master Zhao smiled and said, “For today’s gift, I… Ahem, I have put in a lot of effort. I originally wanted to give him some numinous treasures and precious materials, but I felt that Changgeng did not lack those. I thought that I had known Changgeng the longest and had the deepest relationship with him. I could not just brush him off. I thought about it and suddenly recalled that your beloved General Changgeng had obtained a spear refined from the fragment of the God-Slaying Spear the last time he killed demons in the Asura Ancient City. I had a flash of inspiration and recalled an ancient rumor. I rode the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl and broke through the universe. I rushed to the edge of the trichiliocosm with all my might. I traveled as fast as lightning and found a secret place at the edge of the world. I killed hundreds of demonic insects and found half of the God-Slaying Spear fragment. Later, Changgeng, fuse this fragment into the Little God-Slaying Spear. It will definitely increase its power!” As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Gongming smiled calmly.

It was difficult to find the treasure, and it was also difficult to retrieve it in a short period of time. It was because Li Changshou sincerely wanted to know what he needed. The surrounding immortals and gods praised. They looked at the two-foot-long fragment and talked about the battle between the Dao Ancestor and the Fiend Ancestor.

The fragment of the God-Slaying Spear was naturally a precious treasure, but it had to be in the hands of whom.

If it landed in the hands of an ordinary Zenith Heaven, it would be extremely difficult to refine it. Even if he refined a fragment alone, it would only be forging a sharp Connate numinous treasure.

However, with the spear that the Golden Roc had snatched the last time, this fragment would appear extremely precious. It might be able to create a supreme-grade Connate numinous treasure! Even if it was not as powerful as the original God-Slaying Spear, it was still an impressive treasure.

How could Li Changshou not have a deep impression of him?

However…

The Lady of Earth asked the Yama Lords to send nine drops of the blood essence of the witches. Master Zhao also sent the God-Slaying Spear fragment… What does that mean?

Let a civil servant of the Heavenly Courts focus on cultivating the Eight-Nine Arcane Art?

If he encountered any powerful enemies in the future, the generals of the Heavenly Courts would be utterly defeated. He rode a cloud with the skin of an old immortal and slowly rushed out. In front of the enemies that filled the sky, he suddenly tore his long robe and revealed a shiny golden chain mail. A mysterious-colored treasure flag floated behind him. The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda above his head and the Cosmic Ruler in his left hand. He took a step forward. As his white hair fluttered, his muscles bulged violently. He roared, “Come!” This scene was very Heavenly Courts. Li Changshou cupped his hands and said, “Thank you, Senior Brother!” “Hey, why are you being so polite?” Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and smiled. He took out a treasure pouch from his sleeve and said, “It’s convenient. I killed a demon at the Zenith Heaven realm. It’s just enough to refine pills and make medicine.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Enough, enough. Senior Brother, you’ve really given me enough gifts. I don’t know how to return them in the future.” “You’re welcome!”

Zhao Gongming laughed out loud and was in a good mood. “Brother, go find a place to rest. You can do whatever you want. Second Sister, I’m going over there to sit.”

“It’s been hard on you, Big Brother,” Yun Xiao said gently. She made Zhao Gongming puff out his chest and raise his head. She was relieved! General Dongmu immediately came over from the side and led Zhao Gongming to the area where the immortals of Jie School were seated. Li Changshou specially summoned the Golden-Winged Roc and asked it to take out the small God-Slaying Spear. He handed it over and instructed the Golden-Winged Roc to keep it. He would think of a way to integrate it later.

The “solution” here referred to the Tushita Palace.

When most of the gifts were accepted, the subsequent procedures became smooth. Although the dance between Ling Zhuzi and the jade rabbit was exciting, it left a shallow impression. Because Fairy Heng’e would appear later and shock the Three Realms with a dance. She would completely respect the reputation of the number one beauty in the Three Realms and increase the prestige of the Heavenly Courts. A Fairy Heng’e and a super Heavenly Soldier were considered the core competitors of the Heavenly Courts…

Li Changshou specially observed the expressions of the few ancient mighty figures when they saw Heng’e. He realized that only the Great Immortal Zhenyuan seemed to be in deep thought. When Heng’e danced away, she seemed to want to say something but hesitated. It seemed that the Immortal Zhen Yuanzi should have some clues about Senior Lang.

Unfortunately, Li Changshou was not interested.

The only value of investigating Senior Lang’s past was to find the “upper limit” that could be changed by the script of the Heavenly Dao. Back then, regardless of whether Senior Lang wanted to prove his Dao or reverse some major matter, he would definitely be killed after crossing the boundary.

However, that was not the only way to explore the “elasticity” of the Heavenly Dao.

To be safe, Li Changshou wanted to avoid the matter regarding Senior Lang as much as possible. He wanted to do his best and plan his retirement process…

Speaking of which, there was no one else who wanted to retire on the first day of succession.

After Heng’e danced, an hour later, the music suddenly became majestic. Faint pink petals floated everywhere.

The fairies of the Jade Pool stood on a cloud in the sky. A beautiful female immortal with a slender figure slowly flew over from the depths of the Jade Pool.

She was dressed in a luxurious attire. She was wearing a short-sleeved bandeau blouse made of Frozen Cloud Silk with a gorgeous long dress embroidered with dozens of spiritual birds layered above it. The back of the long dress was dragged in the clouds, making her exceptionally eye-catching when she flew forward.

It was naturally Long Ji.

At that moment, Long Ji had her hair combed into a complicated double bun. She had a golden flower-shaped hairpin on her forehead. She had a light blush on her face and her long eyelashes had been carefully trimmed. Her eyebrows were slender and her ears were sharp. At that moment, she slowly walked forward under the gazes of the immortals. She knelt in front of the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother’s platform and said, “Greetings, Father and Mother.”

The Jade Emperor smiled and looked around calmly. His expression was smug… Ahem, smug. At that moment, the Queen Mother said, “My son, get up.” “Thank you, Father. Thank you, Mother.” Long Ji replied gently and stood up. Li Changshou shook his head and smiled. “In the blink of an eye, His Highness Long Ji is already slender and elegant… Elder Moon?”

Elder Moon, who was sitting at the back, was suddenly called out. He immediately stood up and bowed to Li Changshou. He hurriedly said, “Here.”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “You have to guard your Hall of Marriage well. Don’t let anyone sneak in and pull the red string for His Highness Long Ji. His Highness Long Ji is the beloved daughter of His Majesty and the Goddess. Although His Majesty is impartial and did not let His Highness enter the ranks of the righteous gods of the Heavenly Courts, His Highness Long Ji’s marriage is not a small matter.” A few drops of cold sweat seeped out of Elder Moon’s forehead. He really did not know what Tai Bai Changgeng meant by that. He could only hurriedly lower his head and agree. He repeatedly said that there would definitely not be such a situation. In that case, there would be a path for Long Ji to be schemed against in the future. After Elder Moon sat down, Long Ji blushed and said softly, “Mother, I have always followed Teacher Taibai to learn strategies. I can be considered half a disciple of Teacher. Today, I want to offer a cup of tea to thank Teacher for his guidance.” Li Changshou thought, ‘Speaking of that, I have to mention the three boxes of homework…’ The Queen Mother looked at Li Changshou. Just as she was about to speak, Li Changshou stood up and cupped his hands at the Queen Mother. “Goddess, I’m quite fond of Long Ji. I wonder if Long Ji is willing to formally acknowledge me as her master?”

Since he had previously said that he wanted to take in a disciple, there was no need for the Queen Mother to personally ask for it. He might as well take the initiative.

Long Ji was overjoyed. She forgot how to agree and hurriedly nodded. The Queen Mother smiled and said, “Thank you for your favoritism, Lord Taibai Jinxing.”

Li Changshou cupped his hands and bowed. He walked to the side of the platform and bowed to the Grand Supreme Elder. “Grand Supreme Elder, Princess Long Ji of the Heavenly Courts is innately intelligent and kind. She is eager to learn and improve. She is humble and polite. I have the intention to take her in as a disciple of Ren School.”

“Okay.”

The Grand Supreme Elder nodded slightly. Three streams of light flew out of his sleeve and landed in front of Li Changshou, turning into three treasures. Wisps of Dao runes spread out from the three treasures. The immortals immediately understood how precious the three treasures were.

The Grand Supreme Elder would definitely be extraordinary

The handkerchief-sized azure-blue net was called the Misty World Net. When it was opened, it could overturn thousands of kilometers. It was a water-type Connate numinous treasure that specialized in suppressing various types of True Fire.

The gorgeous ice-blue bottle was called the Four Seas Bottle. It was also a Connate numinous treasure that specialized in countering fire-elemental Dharma treasures. It could pour out water that filled the sky. There was also a half-foot-long divine needle. It was called the Cosmic Needle. It was a top-grade Postnatal numinous treasure. It could break through the Cosmic Shift and could also be used as a treasure for sneak attacks. The three treasures were refined by the Grand Supreme Elder. Their power far exceeded that of similar-grade treasures. They were also the pinnacle of the Primordial World’s “refining”.

Naturally, the true top-notch treasures of the Primordial World, apart from the fact that the Grand Pure One had forcefully increased his merit as a Saint, were mostly condensed from the Connate realm.

The Dao of refining was always restricted by the Heavenly Dao.

Li Changshou walked back with the three treasures and smiled at Long Ji.

“Long Ji, are you willing to become my disciple? Will you enter the Taiqing Dao and cultivate the Great Dao of Inaction?” Long Ji immediately knelt down and bowed.

“Long Ji is willing to follow Teacher. Disciple greets Master!”

“Hahahaha!”

The Jade Emperor laughed loudly on the platform and said loudly, “Thank you for helping me, Grand Supreme Elder! My child, Long Ji, in the future, you will respect your master’s orders and pay respects to him. Cultivate the Grand Pure One’s Great Dao properly. Don’t embarrass the Grand Pure One.”

Long Ji stood up and replied, “I will not disappoint Father and Master.”

Li Changshou placed the three treasures in Long Ji’s hand and urged, “Hurry up and put away the treasures. Go and meet the Grand Supreme Elder and the Great Daoist Master.”

“Okay!” Long Ji did not dare to look at the treasure. She held it in her hand and stood up in front of the Grand Supreme Elder.

Just as she was about to kneel, she realized that the clouds in front of her were preventing her from kneeling. She immediately understood what they meant and bowed deeply.

Then, Long Ji rushed to the Great Daoist Master and bowed respectfully.

“Aunt-Master.”

“Yes, not bad, not bad.”

The Great Daoist Master sat upright. He did not have the experience to deal with such a scene. However, he took the opportunity to take out the few numinous treasures that he had prepared for Li Changshou but did not use. It was a greeting gift. However, in the blink of an eye, Long Ji carried three Connate numinous treasures and two Postnatal supreme-grade numinous treasures and walked back to Li Changshou. That scene made many immortals envious. The immortals of Jie School also sighed. With fewer disciples, the treasures were really rich! Li Changshou said warmly, “Come and find me in a few days. I’ll teach you the Grand Pure Dao technique. In the future, as my eldest disciple, you should remember the words ‘Grand Pure One does not do anything’. Don’t cause karma and seek the truth. Do good deeds outside and punish the strong and help the weak.” Long Ji bowed and said seriously, “I will follow Master’s instructions.”

Then, Long Ji looked at Yun Xiao, not knowing if she should address her as ‘Master’s wife.’

At that moment, Yun Xiao… was inexplicably nervous.

Li Changshou continued, “Go on. Remember to visit Senior Brother Taiyi’s disciples of Chan School.” “Yes.” Long Ji immediately understood. She lowered her head and bowed before retreating. He could tell that the Jade Emperor was extremely happy that Long Ji had become Li Changshou’s eldest disciple. At that moment, the Jade Emperor raised his wine bottle. The immortals welcomed him. More than ten Moon Palace Chang’e entered the dance. The immortals were in the mood to chat. The Grand Supreme Elder had left at some point in time, and the Jade Pool was filled with laughter.

Hence, three days later…

The dance ended and the hall was empty.

The Heavenly Generals cleared away the short tables and plates. The Great White Hall was once again empty.

There were all kinds of treasures in the middle of the hall. They were all congratulatory gifts that Li Changshou had received previously. The expensive ones had naturally been put away. The items placed there were all precious materials and treasures. It was a joyous occasion.

As he had expected the Jade Emperor’s incarnation to come, Li Changshou had sent the Golden-Winged Roc and the others away in advance. He familiarized himself with the array formations in the hall and admired his new residence.

It was huge and spacious, but… it was too simple. There was only a hall here. There was no study room. Where would he stay in the future? Where would the Golden Roc and the others stay? Where would Ling Zhuzi and Yu Tu play happily? Li Changshou thought for a while and decided to modify the arrangements in the hall later. He would use array formations to distinguish them and create a chain array formation for entertainment.

It was a pity that the Ghost Hall in the Netherworld could not be moved up. Otherwise, it would be a good period for him to cultivate, plot, and scare the rabbit.

Staring… Sensing the gaze from the door, Li Changshou smiled and said, “Just come in. There’s no one else here.”

At the door of the hall, the golden-armored war goddess, who was leaning on the door frame and looking in, blinked slightly when she heard that and flashed into the Great White Hall.

Li Changshou activated the isolation array formation around the hall and looked at the female Heavenly General who was slowly walking over.

She was still the same. Her face was beautiful-her figure was slender, and her close-fitting armor had a different charm. Her figure could not be reduced in the slightest. Everything was wonderful.

The most beautiful was naturally formed by the heavens, and the most charming was because it was just right. When she was 100 feet away, she stopped and looked at the old immortal in front of her.

Li Changshou transformed into a young man’s face. Although he did not reveal his true appearance, he looked more pleasing to the eye. “Xuanya, are you moving here later?” “I’ll just stay in my original residence,” Youqin Xuanya said softly. The corners of her mouth curled into a smile, and her eyes were filled with emotions. “Congratulations on your promotion to Venus, Senior Brother.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “There’s nothing to congratulate me about.”

After saying that, he tapped the horsetail whisk in his hand and placed two chairs in front of him. He said, “We haven’t had a good chat in a long time. How have you been?” “Everything is fine.” Youqin Xuanya did not go forward. She had nowhere to place her hands. She avoided Li Changshou’s gaze and said softly, “I’ve been fighting demons recently… They are all useless demons. I haven’t encountered any experts. Thank you, Senior Brother, for arranging for me to serve the Heavenly Courts. Here, I can feel that I am indeed doing something that I can do and putting in effort for the righteous path. Originally, I felt that cultivating was a little meaningless. Now, I’ve found the meaning to it.” “That’s good.” Li Changshou sighed. “Don’t give yourself too much pressure. You’re already doing very well.” “I will continue.”

Youqin Xuanya bit her lips gently. There was no hesitation in her eyes. They were filled with determination as she looked into Li Changshou’s eyes.

That determination made Li Changshou feel a little… embarrassed.

She said, “I know that Senior Brother is thinking about the living beings in the Three Realms. I know that Senior Brother wants the world to be clear and establish order that can protect the weak and restrict the strong. I’m not a cultivation genius, nor did she have any outstanding abilities. She could not catch up to her senior brother. However, I will always chase after Senior Brother… Yes, even if I can only see your back! Xuanya has said too much. Senior Brother, don’t blame me. A soldier is still waiting for me at the Heaven Gate. I’ll… go over first.” Just as Li Changshou was about to ask Youqin Xuanya to stay so that he could correct her thoughts, General Wei Shenmo slowly flew over from outside the hall. After some hesitation, Youqin Xuanya turned around to leave. Li Changshou shouted, “Xuanya!”

She turned her head when she heard that. An immortal light shone on her face. Her skin was actually so smooth. Li Changshou threw a treasure pouch over. It was filled with pills for healing and saving lives. Youqin Xuanya caught it steadily.

“Protect yourself.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Your life is the foundation of everything.”

“Yes!”

Youqin Xuanya nodded solemnly. She held the treasure pouch in her hand and walked out.

When she was about to reach the door of the hall, she held the treasure pouch to her chest again. There was a hint of joy in her eyes. She did not even notice Wei Shenmo, who had brushed past her. Wei Shenmo looked at the hall and then at Youqin Xuanya’s back view. His eyes lit up.

I see…

Yes, find a way to arrange it.
