My Senior Brother is Too Steady

“Sister, what’s wrong? Why are you in a daze?”

In front of the jade statue on the Three-Immortal Island.

Yun Xiao floated quietly in the air. Suddenly, she heard a shout behind her. She immediately restrained the worry on her face and smiled warmly.

She turned around and looked at Qiong Xiao, who was flying over.

“I’m just thinking about what happened in the South Continent.”

“Is it about the strange matter regarding the Human Emperor’s poem?”

Qiong Xiao was dressed in a short yellow dress. There was a smile on her lips. She clicked her tongue and smiled. “The Human Emperor is really ignorant and fearless. Perhaps it’s because the immortals and mortals of the human race have separated, causing mortals to lose their respect for Saints. He is really the Human Emperor.”

Yun Xiao hummed softly and said, “Did you hear anything about this?”

“That’s why I came to look for Sister.”

Qiong Xiao said, “I just heard news from the Green Touring Palace. I think Wen Zhong sent a message that Human Emperor Di Xin was suddenly bewitched. When he left Nuwa Temple, he fell asleep and woke up without knowing what had happened. Someone had schemed against the Human Emperor, but the Goddess’s Dao runes had already appeared in the South Continent. Clearly, she had blamed the current Human Emperor. What’s done is done.”

Yun Xiao sighed softly and said, “That’s what I’m worried about. According to his personality, he would probably watch from the side. When he saw that someone had schemed against the Human Emperor and insulted the Goddess of the human race, he would definitely stop them. If even he can’t stop it, could the Human Emperor, who can directly affect the protection of the Human Emperor’s destiny, be attacked by the calamity and the Heavenly Dao…”

Qiong Xiao smiled and said, “Sister, don’t worry. What you said is just a guess. Now, the heavenly secrets are blinded and cannot be deduced. Moreover, even if the calamity descends and the Heavenly Dao takes action, it’s normal for the calamity to happen. It’s not like we haven’t seen such a situation since ancient times.”

“But he has never seen it.”

Yun Xiao pursed her lips slightly, as if she wanted to look for Li Changshou. However, she realized that it was not appropriate for her to appear.

“What will happen to Brother-in-law?”

Qiong Xiao blinked and asked softly, “Should we go over and take a look?”

“He has a detailed plan for the Great Tribulation.” Yun Xiao sighed and said, “All of his schemes are within the rules set by the Heavenly Dao. If the Heavenly Dao really violates his rules this time and attacks the Human Emperor directly, it will definitely be a huge blow to him. The more he’s like this, the more he cannot accept such a situation. If I go over now, it’s fine if he wants to endure it. If he acts rashly, it will be harmful to him.”

“I see…”

Qiong Xiao pinched her chin and pondered for a while. Then, she smiled and said, “Sister, don’t worry. I’ll contact my good friends in the Heavenly Courts and ask them what’s going on. Moreover, I don’t think Brother-in-law is someone who can be defeated so easily. Sister, wait for me. I’ll contact them now.”

Yun Xiao asked curiously, “What other good friends do you have in the Heavenly Courts?”

“Hehe.” Qiong Xiao kept her in suspense and took out a communication jade token. “Sister, just wait for me to believe you!”

An hour later…

Qiong Xiao looked at the vibrating jade token in her hand and the words that slowly appeared on it. Her mouth could not help but twitch.

“Sister, you’ve worried for nothing.”

“What happened?”

“Brother-in-law is very energetic! Pui! He advanced to the Glacial Palace in two hours and hasn’t come out yet!”

Qiong Xiao gritted her teeth and cursed, “These male immortals are all unfaithful! Is the greatest beauty of the Three Realms very impressive?!”

Yun Xiao said, “Don’t think too much about that. I naturally believe in him.”

Then, Yun Xiao stood in front of the jade statue and pondered quietly.

Why did he go to the Glacial Palace to look for Heng’e?

That was also something that he could not figure out… Hmph.

…

At the same time, in the Glacial Palace.

Heng’e looked at the man sitting at the round table nervously.

She could clearly sense that Li Changshou’s condition was not right.

For two hours, he only sat by the table. He did not speak. From time to time, he would raise his teacup and take a sip of tea. The light in his eyes flickered quickly.

Jade Rabbit was so frightened that she hid in the backyard and trembled. She did not dare to approach that place at all.

“Lord Taibai Jinxing?”

Heng’e could not help but ask.

“Ah, I’m fine. I’m a little engrossed in my thoughts.”

Li Changshou closed his eyes and took a deep breath to relax.

He had been calculating what he had to do, which trump cards he had to give up, and which pieces to take off the chessboard.

In terms of emotions, he had to express his anger appropriately later and show that he had “mistakenly thought of himself as the pillar of the human race”.

Yes, he had to be mistaken.

Li Changshou first sighed and said, “Moon Lord, you probably don’t know that something huge has happened in the human race!”

A strange expression appeared on Heng’e’s beautiful face. She asked carefully, “Is it the Goddess’s Temple?”

Bang!

Li Changshou slapped the table and stood up. Heng’e’s slender body could not help but tremble.

She felt that Lord Taibai Jinxing was plotting something…

Li Changshou’s face was filled with anger. He recalled the emotions that he had accidentally revealed in front of his teacher and “acted” that emotion again.

His nostrils were flared, his eyes were wide open, and his breathing was slightly heavy. At this moment,his voice had to be full of gusto and angst that a human youth should have.

Sometimes, such useless roars did not seem to be a threat.

“What is this? This is too much! What does the Heavenly Dao think of the human race?!”

Heng’e frowned and muttered softly, “Why don’t you ask the Jade Emperor about this…”

“The Jade Emperor is probably in a dilemma.” Li Changshou raised his head and sighed. He immediately recited a poem. “The path is difficult. The human race has been rising since ancient times. It’s really difficult. The Heavenly Dao willfully messed with the Human Emperor today. Tomorrow, it will mess with the human race! What did the prosperity of the human race rely on? It relied on fighting all the way and the blood and sweat of the human ancestors! The Heavenly Dao is standing behind the Demon Court!”

Heng’e whispered, “That’s what the Primordial World is like. Lord Taibai Jinxing, don’t be so angry. The fate of the human race will not be like this today. It’s difficult for humans to disobey the will of the heavens.”

Li Changshou cursed, “If a Saint is not virtuous, how can he be a Saint!? The Heavenly Dao is selfish, how can he establish morals!?!”

Heng’e’s face turned pale.

How dare he say that?

Li Changshou slowly exhaled and looked at the sky guiltily. After waiting for a while and seeing that there was nothing unusual, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Indeed, the Heavenly Dao should be forcing him to attack in advance and expose his trump card this time.

Heng’e pondered for a while and hurriedly said, “If Lord Taibai Jinxing is just complaining, just complain to Heng’e. There are many people in the Heavenly Courts who talk nonsense. These words cannot be spread.”

“What are you afraid of?

The Heavenly Dao controlled the Human Emperor and pushed the calamity in front of me.”

Li Changshou’s smile was filled with desolation. “You might think that the Heavenly Dao is also being pushed by the Heavenly Dao by others, but this is different. This is not a simple difference in form, but a difference in principle. The Heavenly Dao set the rules, protected the rules, and used the rules to influence the world. This is the tacit understanding between the Heavenly Dao and living beings. If I do not seek an explanation from the Heavenly Dao today, the word ‘equalization’ would be nonsense. Moon Lord, do you still remember the matter you entrusted to me when we first met?”

Heng’e was stunned. She subconsciously stood up. For some reason, her eyes turned red. She took two steps forward and wanted to grab Li Changshou’s right arm. However, she could not help but stop.

At that moment, she did not put on any makeup. However, her appearance was so beautiful that it moved one’s heart.

Li Changshou could not bear it.

“Who, who is he…”

Li Changshou sent a voice transmission. “I want to use you to do something. As a response, I will let you know about what happened back then. This is a deal. If you don’t agree, I will stop here.”

“I agree. I’ll agree to anything.”

Heng’e said with a trembling voice. Her voice was filled with pleading. She raised her hand and grabbed Li Changshou’s arm, as if she had forgotten about the Dharma spell, Sound Transmission.

“Tell me who he is, who he is, and what exactly is the incomplete Dao heart…”

“Follow me.”

Li Changshou said in a low voice. He raised his hand and pointed out a white cloud. “Don’t ask or do anything else. Look carefully and sense it. I will tell you what to do.”

“Yes,” Heng’e replied and stood at the edge of the white cloud.

Li Changshou jumped into the middle of the white cloud and rode it. He did not hide his figure and descended towards the Heavenly Gate.

Immortal senses probed over. Most of the immortals and gods of the Heavenly Courts were confused.

Heng’e was distracted. At that moment, she forgot to fix her makeup and conceal her figure. She only stood quietly beside Li Changshou and pressed her slender hand against her chest.

Halfway through…

“Moon Lord! Lord Taibai Jinxing!”

General Dongmu shouted and rushed over on a cloud.

Li Changshou stopped and cupped his hands at General Dongmu. His expression was not good, but he forced a smile and asked,

“What’s wrong, General Dongmu?”

“Xing, Changgeng.” General Dongmu frowned and asked, “Why are you going? What do you want to do?”

Li Changshou stopped smiling and said calmly, “The Fire Cloud Cave is looking for the ancestors of the human race to discuss something.”

“Is it related to the poem that the Human Emperor wrote in the Goddess’s Temple?”

General Dongmu looked worried. Without waiting for Li Changshou to answer, he said, “Changgeng, please reconsider. This matter is not trivial. The Heavenly Dao is plotting…”

“General Dongmu.” Li Changshou sighed and said, “Support His Majesty well.”

After saying that, he rode a cloud around General Dongmu and landed at the Heavenly Gate.

General Dongmu was clearly stunned. He was about to raise his hand to call Li Changshou, but he did not know what to say.

This matter seemed to have exceeded his understanding.

In the Lingxiao Hall, the Jade Emperor, who was sitting on the high seat, frowned. He could not help but lean forward and support his forehead with both hands. The hesitation and struggle in his eyes kept surging.

Outside the hall, a colorful cloud slowly flew over. On it was the figure of the Queen Mother.

In the bamboo forest of the Purple Cloud Palace, the burly old Daoist priest smiled faintly. He stared at the jade plate on the short table in front of him, revealing the scene of Li Changshou and Heng’e flying out of the Heaven Gate.

The burly old Daoist priest patted his thigh gently and smiled.

On the East Ocean, in the Saint’s Dao field, in the Green Touring Palace.

The young Daoist who was playing with the four pocket-sized swords had changed from his usual unrestrained self. He frowned and pondered in a daze. In the clouds in front of him, the same scene that the Dao Ancestor had seen in the Creation Jade Disc.

In the small courtyard of the three friends behind the Jade Void Palace of Kunlun Mountain.

The middle-aged Daoist closed his eyes and focused. He tapped his fingers on the armrest of the bamboo chair and frowned.

“Elder Peach”, who was at the side, could not help but be shocked. He did not know why the situation was so serious that his teacher had to spend so much effort to think.

How many years has it been since Teacher deduced something like that…

On a spiritual mountain.

“Senior Brother, it’s a chance, Senior Brother! As long as Li Changgeng falls out with the Heavenly Dao.”

“Don’t move. If you move, you will die.”

“Well?”

“Ah… Behave.”

The old Daoist priest sighed softly. His eyes were filled with helplessness. He simply closed his eyes and did not speak.

Outside the five continents, deep in the void, in the Goddess’s Palace.

The female Saint, who had just returned from the South Continent, leaned against her bookshelf lazily. She frowned slightly and was thinking about the same thing.

She subconsciously looked out the window and brushed her fingers across the books on the bookshelf. She shook her head slightly.

“All of them are so worrisome.”

Amidst her gentle complaints, the female Saint quietly disappeared.

A wisp of Dao runes flowed through the depths of the universe and quickly traveled to the five continents of the Primordial World. They found the two figures who were riding a cloud towards the Fire Cloud Cave.

Immortal light flickered and streams of light flickered. A cloud condensed from the colorful light, and thousands of petals bloomed within a 50-kilometer radius.

He heard a call.

“Li Changgeng, where are you going?”

Li Changshou stopped and looked up. He saw Saint Nuwa slowly descending from the sky in a light red dress.

Her posture, bearing, and Dao runes made even Heng’e pale in comparison.

Li Changshou did not dare to look at Saint Nuwa at that moment. He lowered his head and bowed with a Dao salute. He said in a low voice, “Goddess, I’m unwilling to accept this. I’m indignant and can’t tolerate anything. I want to go to the Fire Cloud Cave.”

Nuwa smiled warmly. Immortal light surrounded her as she asked slowly, “Li Changgeng, you are an important minister of the Heavenly Courts. You are loved and respected by the Immortal Gods. You are valued by the Jade Emperor and your prestige in the Dao Sect is flourishing. How indignant are you? What do you have to endure? Don’t take the wrong path and ruin your future.”

Li Changshou said, “You should know.”

Saint Nuwa sighed and said, “The current human emperor is arrogant and conceited. He should be punished. That’s the conclusion.”

“But that’s not the only conclusion.”

“It’s not easy for the human race to survive today…”

“The human race has been able to survive until now because of this!”

“If I lose my pride, I won’t be able to negotiate.”

Li Changshou said firmly, “You are the Goddess of the human race. You have your own difficulties. I don’t dare to use the human race to kidnap you today. However, please don’t stop me. The word ‘human’ could be described as human. I respect the world and the Heavenly Dao. However, the Heavenly Dao views the dignity of the human race as nothing. How can I be happy and indignant!?!”

Saint Nuwa frowned and stared at Li Changshou.

Li Changshou looked apologetic, but he looked at Saint Nuwa.

Saint Nuwa suddenly said, “Since you have already made up your mind, I shouldn’t have stopped you on this matter. However, you have to remember to be magnanimous. You can’t blow things up to the point of no return. It’s not beneficial to the human race. Also, let Heng’e go back. It’s not appropriate for her to participate in today’s matter.”

Li Changshou said, “Goddess, I’m afraid I can’t agree to this.”

Saint Nuwa sighed and said, “Although the Heavenly Dao will be afraid of such a weak woman, I’m afraid that it will lose your reputation as a hero.”

“What I did is not for fame.”

Li Changshou looked at Heng’e, who was still a little distracted. The latter shook her head gently. Li Changshou nodded slowly and turned to smile bitterly at Nuwa.

“I’m a coward. I don’t want to be tainted by too much karma. I’m destined not to be a hero.”

After saying that, Li Changshou bowed to Saint Nuwa and rode a cloud to take a detour. Saint Nuwa sighed softly and turned into petals before disappearing.

When Li Changshou returned to the original path, the Fire Cloud Cave was already close by.

Li Changshou looked at Heng’e and sent a voice transmission.

“There was once a taboo of the Heavenly Dao. In the ancient times, it went crazy for no reason. It wanted to destroy the Primordial World and return everything to the Chaos.

He is your master and my fellow countryman. He is also an existence that no living beings in the world know. It is a name that Saints avoid. This senior had a second essence soul technique. Back then, he had been living in the Primordial World in an open and aboveboard manner. However, he had hidden behind that identity. Now, we can find the second essence soul, who knows nothing about what had happened back then. After the Dao Ancestor and the Heavenly Dao worked together to suppress the Heavenly Dao taboo, they erased all traces of his existence, including your memories. Heng’e, do you want to know who he is?”

“Yes.” Heng’e’s beautiful eyes were filled with tears as she nodded heavily.

Li Changshou said in a low voice, “Follow me to the Purple Cloud Palace later. You only need to cry there and know the truth.”

“Cry?”

“That’s right. Cry.” Li Changshou looked at the Fire Cloud Cave below and said in a low voice, “Don’t ask too much. It’s not convenient for us to explain too much. Wait here for a while. I’ll invite some helpers.”

Helper…

The confusion in Heng’e’s eyes intensified. Li Changshou jumped down and stood in the sky above the lake. He looked at the entrance of the Fire Cloud Cave and bowed deeply.

He stood up and shouted loudly!

Teacher asked me to do it freely, but if I do it again, I can’t scold him directly.

He still had to pay attention to the subsequent effects. He had to obtain the greatest benefits for the human race, himself, and the current and future.

“Li Changshou, disciple of the human race, greets the ancestors. The Heavenly Dao is unfair. It used the Great Tribulation as an excuse to control the Human Emperor and insult the Goddess. The Three Realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man were imbalanced. The immortals, humans, and ghosts were out of balance. Today! I want to go to the Purple Cloud Sect and ask for an explanation! If the human soul is not destroyed, the human Dao will not lack heroic spirits!”

Boom—

Thunder suddenly appeared in the clear sky. A black cloud appeared in the sky. Purple-red lightning flickered in it, as if it wanted to punish Li Changshou!

Li Changshou looked up. His eyes shone, and his long hair danced behind him. This time, he stood proudly and did not retreat.

It did not matter if he shouted a few witty words during his Tribulation Transcendence.

Now, he was speaking on behalf of the human race, but he did not allow himself to be playful.

Come on, let’s cause a scene first.

If there is no way out ahead, I will create a chance of survival!

Li Changshou shouted, “Please! The Three Emperors and Five Kings!”

The surface of the lake suddenly exploded, and the image of a volcano vaguely appeared. Black gas surged out from it.

The endless black gas condensed into a huge hand that covered the sky and pierced into the Tribulation Cloud above. Flames engulfed the world and instantly evaporated the Tribulation Cloud!

At the mouth of the volcano, a thin figure slowly floated out. His withered flesh was quickly filled. His eyes suddenly opened, and demonic flames surged in his eyes!

Mm…

Rumble…

There were sounds of horns, war drums, and orderly footsteps.

Beside the thin figure, a few troops appeared out of thin air. It was impossible to calculate the number. A row of bronze war chariots rolled forward. The figures on them were a little faint, but their gazes were firm and their expressions were determined.

On the first three war chariots.

Emperor Huang Xuanyuan, who was dressed in golden armor, Emperor Shennong, who was dressed in a straw raincoat, and Emperor Fuxi, who was dressed in an ethereal green robe, emitted dazzling divine might!

Nineteen streams of light flew towards the South Continent.

Below the Central Heaven Gate, the burly man who was carrying the huge rock lowered his head in shock. He threw the huge rock in his hand and could not help but cry.

In front of the Fire Cloud Cave, Suiren slowly stood up and looked at Li Changshou warmly.

The old man raised his finger and pointed forward slowly. The universe collapsed layer by layer and turned into a path burning with flames.

At the end of the path was Chaos. Behind the Chaos was a towering hall.

Violet Cloud Palace!

Suiren slowly walked forward, leaving behind flames under his feet. Behind him, thousands of heroic spirits surged.

Li Changshou only lowered his head and sighed. His eyes were filled with pity as he bowed deeply towards Suiren’s back.

To Li Changshou, that was not a crucial battle.

This was just a helpless counterattack. The goal of achieving it was to restrict the Heavenly Dao. It could only increase the chances of success when the time comes in the future.

However, to Suiren, it was faith and dignity!

It was even to the extent that it might be the last power of Suiren.

Somehow, Li Changshou saw images in the flames of the lonely back…

At the darkest moment of the human race, the Demon Court, which carried the Heaven’s Will, slaughtered wantonly and deprived the living souls. Not a single human survived, and their blood dyed the Primordial World.

The leader gritted his teeth and endured. He led the last human to hide on the ground with difficulty. He used his hands to rub the rough wooden handle and tried to polish the last wisp of light in the darkness.

He did.

He stood in the endless darkness and allowed himself to melt into the darkness. He turned into a demon and fought for a chance of survival with the demons. He roared continuously at the sky!

When I was a demon, the human race was undefeated.

When I become an emperor, the human race will not fall!

To those who come later, I can’t give you the Divine Flame that won’t die for ten thousand years. I can only tell you that fire can be born from the hands of the human race. There’s no need to seek the heavens or the gods.

If the God is not righteous, I would destroy the God.

If the heavens are unfair, I would go and destroy the heavens!

I hope that the human race will continue to prosper and pass down the torch for generations. We will fight with the world and rather break than bend.

Clang!

Emperor Huang Xuanyuan pulled out the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand and carried the Kongtong Seal on his shoulder. The aura of the Ancestral Dragon surrounded him. His eyebrows were sharp and angry as he commanded the three armies!

“Charge!”
