Chapter 371 Immortal Child’s Longevity

Ah, what is true friendship in times of trouble? At that moment, the hundreds of immortals from Jie School who were watching the commotion on Golden Ao Island cast grateful looks with their immortal senses at the white-haired, white-bearded old immortal who took the initiative to welcome the other end of the cave.

Although everyone knew that the appearance of the Heavenly Courts’ ordinary God of Power, his figure was fake, his voice, and his beard were fake… However, the bravery and fearlessness of stepping forward at this moment of danger were real! The Heavenly Courts’ Water God, Li Changgeng, was indeed a good brother of Jie School!

A moment ago… Fairy Yun Xiao appeared at the other end of the cave. She was dressed in a green dress and had a beautiful figure that could not be reduced at all.

Her black hair was soft like water, and her eyes were gentle, but they contained the true meaning of the Great Dao. There was also a faint dignity that made people only dare to look at her from afar without touching her… There were no similarities between the two worlds.

He originally did not care about the matters of the mortal world, but he could not control his emotions.

If not for Yun Xiao, who else would have such charm to make Li Changshou, whose Dao heart had been sealed by the “Steel Aged Beauties”, have obvious emotional fluctuations? If not for Yun Xiao, how many people could do that? As soon as they appeared, they could make the hole formed by Daoist Duobao’s mystical abilities be heard by a pin drop? The immortals from Jie School, who were watching the gossip, thought of a problem at the same time… The last time they gathered together, they were gossiping and watching the interaction between Yun Xiao and Water God Changgeng! Now that the main character is here, then… Daoist Duobao moved back and hid behind the Goddess of Golden Light. The Goddess of Golden Spirit calmly shifted her gaze away and began to study the mysterious patterns of the “soil particles” inside the cave.

The Goddess of Turtle Spirit pursed her lips. She had already prepared the method that she would often use to deal with her master’s reprimand…

Qiong Xiao had also arrived. She was already about to cry and pinch her ears. She looked pitifully at Li Changshou’s paper effigy, who was preparing to burn himself.

Li Changshou sighed in his heart. If he did not step forward now, who else could?

“You’re here too.” A soft laughter broke the silence in the cave. Li Changshou held his horsetail whisk and walked forward. He used some kind of footwork and his body blew in front of Fairy Yun Xiao like a breeze. His steps were smooth and natural, making people feel comfortable.

Li Changshou waved his horsetail whisk and said, “Since there’s a reason for this, let’s not count this as the meeting that should take place once every 500 years.” A smile graced Yun Xiao’s originally dissatisfied face. “Why are you all eavesdropping here?”

Yun Xiao said softly, “Isn’t that being too rude to the two of them?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoists, you’re just too concerned about that. That’s normal for living beings. On the other hand, the relaxed, lively, and united atmosphere of Jie School is very rare in the eyes of a disciple of Ren School. Right, I’ll change my appearance.” As he spoke, Li Changshou took out a paper effigy from his sleeve and transformed it into the face of a young Daoist. He put away the old immortal’s paper effigy. The corners of Yun Xiao’s mouth curled up into a smile. She continued, “It’s not as pleasing as your original appearance.”

Li Changshou looked a little guilty and said softly, “That’s a secret of Ren School that can’t be easily revealed.”

Then, he made an inviting gesture and walked back to the cave where he was previously. Along the way, it was only a few hundred feet. Every time Yun Xiao walked past an “observation cave”, she would sweep her gaze across it. The immortals inside, regardless of gender or seniority, did not dare to look at her. Moreover, they more or less felt… guilty. Many immortals would pretend to chat and change the topic. They would also talk about Dharma treasures and cultivation. “Disciple-Nephew Yu Yuan, the Blood Transformation Divine Saber that you have recently refined seems to be quite powerful. Shall we discuss it together someday?” “Sure, sure.” “Senior Brother Luo Xuan, have you settled the corpse yet? Didn’t you go into seclusion for tens of thousands of years and still failed to comprehend the key?”

“It’s so troublesome…”

There were also immortals who mentioned the latest news.

“These demons are really out of luck. They even said that they want to fight the Heavenly Courts. I wonder where they got their confidence from.” “Ah, back then, my cousin from the Cave Abode next door had a close relationship with the Great Demon King of the North Continent. I wonder if this karma will implicate us.” “The Ren School is behind the Heavenly Courts. It’s useless for the demons to do anything. It’s better to be honest…” When Yun Xiao heard that, she looked at Li Changshou with concern and asked gently, “Previously, I deduced that you were summoned to Goddess Nuwa’s Palace because of the demons. Is there any trouble?” After hearing his words, Li Changshou had a complicated expression. Goddess Nuwa’s Palace… was also a bad memory… Yun Xiao hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong? Are you injured?”

“No, I was just reprimanded by Goddess Nuwa.”

Li Changshou smiled bitterly and said, “Now that I think about it, I was really gutsy. I even dared to plot against the Saint. In the end, the Saint saw through me. I was already confident that I had not made any mistakes. I did not expect that I would still be careless.”

He sighed. Yun Xiao relaxed her eyebrows when she heard that. The little anxiety and concern she had just now could not be faked.

She said, “The Saint and the so-called quasi-saint seem to be separated by a line, but they are actually worlds apart.”

Li Changshou nodded in agreement.

This kind of “warning” about the abilities of Saints was already a necessary topic for every meeting. As they chatted, the two of them arrived at the pit that Li Changshou had been in previously.

Fairy Yun Xiao bowed and addressed them as Senior Brother, Senior Sister, and Junior Sister respectively. Then, she frowned and looked at Qiong Xiao… Just as she was about to speak, Li Changshou raised his hand and gently pulled Fairy Yun Xiao’s sleeve. “It’s not appropriate to teach Qiong Xiao a lesson in front of others.”

Yun Xiao dissipated her aura and sighed.

“Follow me back to the island to cultivate later. Don’t run around outside. Your cultivation level is almost surpassed by Bi Xiao.” “Yes, Sister.”

Qiong Xiao said aggrievedly and secretly cupped her fists to thank Li Changshou. Yun Xiao could not help but look out of the hole… Beside the treasure pool, Zhao Gongming, who had trimmed his beard and changed into a long robe, displayed the characteristics of having a dignified appearance and a mighty figure to the extreme. The Goddess of Golden Light today had long hair that gave off a mature charm. Her exquisite facial features, palm-sized face, and a long dress that matched her figure… Her dressing style naturally came from a brocade pouch. It was a neutral suggestion given by a certain Water God of the Heavenly Courts who was unwilling to reveal his name.

At that moment, Master Zhao and the Goddess of Golden Light were nine feet apart. They had just changed the topic and were still brewing their emotions.

Master Zhao hemmed and hawed for a long time. The Goddess of Golden Light acknowledged and agreed for a while, but she could not continue. Hence, Master Zhao said in a low voice, “Junior Sister, sorry.” “Huh?” The Goddess of Golden Light was slightly stunned. Suddenly, she felt a blue light flash in front of her eyes. A few Sea-Calming Divine Pearls appeared around her, sealing her immortal senses and locking her in place. For a moment, she lost her senses.

The immortals in the cave were stunned.

Qiong Xiao could not help but exclaim, “Brother, are you that direct?” Daoist Duobao frowned slightly. “Isn’t that a little bad? After all, there are so many junior brothers and junior sisters watching in broad daylight… Although Junior Sister Jinguang is willing, this…” “Really.” The Goddess of Turtle Spirit raised her hand to cover her eyes, leaving a hint of light between her fingers. Zhao Gongming walked forward… Yun Xiao frowned and was about to stop him. Many immortals from Jie School held their breaths and were amazed as they did not expect it. However, Master Zhao skated skillfully and appeared behind the Goddess of Golden Light. He looked around and took out a scroll. After opening it, he read it carefully and kept nodding. He became more ambitious!

Then, he turned around and appeared at his original spot. He put away the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl at lightning speed and smiled. “Junior Sister, do you like poetry and painting?” The Goddess of Golden Light blinked. Although she was a little stunned, she still smiled timidly and nodded in agreement.

Li Changshou was rendered speechless. The immortals from Jie School were speechless.

In an immortal hall that had jumped out of the Three Realms and was not part of the Five Elements and was hidden in the Great Dao, a young Daoist priest in a red cloud Daoist robe held the Qingping Sword and was about to rush out of the hall. Fortunately, he was dissuaded by the immortals who were accompanying the seven immortals. “Master, don’t be angry.”

“Senior Brother Gongming is not rude. Don’t worry, Master.”

“This traitorous disciple! Am I angry that he wasn’t rude? Master, did I give him the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl to do this? Pui! I’m so angry!”

Naturally, this scene would not be seen by outsiders.

An hour later…

The people on Golden Ao Island dispersed. The two figures met again on the East Ocean. They rode a cloud through the blue sky and white clouds. They found a quiet beach and strolled and chatted. Finally, they went to a shady place and covered themselves with a cloth blanket.

The man cupped his fists while the woman bowed. The two of them sat down and were more than six feet apart.

That was Yun Xiao’s invitation to meet Li Changshou’s “main body”. The paper effigy could kill and commit arson. When he buried his soul, the paper effigy could feel something However, it was more appropriate for him to talk to Fairy Yun Xiao about romance.

This place was not far from the Immortal Du Sect. If there was trouble, he could hide back in the Little Qiong Peak in time… Ahem, let’s talk about something inappropriate. Li Changshou realized that the longer he was in the Primordial World, the less resistance he had towards the fluttering dresses of fairies. Especially when Yun Xiao sat down, her skirt was like a blooming peony flower. Every crease was like a mark when the petals overlapped. She would not get tired of looking at it. Naturally, the two of them had yet to reach the stage where they were in love with each other. The sentence ‘You’re so good-looking’ could not achieve the best effect… The two of them talked about Zhao Gongming and the Goddess of Golden Light for a while. Yun Xiao felt that the marriage of Master Zhao was a little forced. Li Changshou nodded in agreement.

At that moment, Zhao Gongming and the Goddess of Golden Light had agreed to travel to outer space. The two of them had also made an agreement. They would spend some time together. If they felt that they were not compatible, they would not mention the matter of becoming Dao companions… Yun Xiao sighed softly and said, “How can this matter be discussed? If we are not in love with each other, it would be a little too forced.”

“It’s not appropriate for you to think that way.” Li Changshou took out two jade bottles from his sleeve and filled them with immortal wine. He pushed one of them in front of Yun Xiao and said, “Not every relationship can be reciprocated, and not every relationship begins with mutual affection. Sometimes, one person’s persistence can indeed change the other. However, the prerequisite is that the two of them have a common interaction. They can get along naturally and have common topics to talk about.”

Fairy Yun Xiao pondered carefully and took the jade bottle. She sniffed it gently and chuckled. “Did you teach Big Brother those words?”

“Well… hehe.”

“How can you say so many things to make a woman happy?” Yun Xiao chided softly, but she did not blame him.

Li Changshou smiled. He could not say that he had the advantage of information. Hence, he said seriously, “I’m used to scheming, so I probably thought more about it. There should not be so many schemes when it comes to matters of romance. Just like now, when I’m by your side, I can use the time I spend with you to let go of all the troubles in the mortal world. I feel rather comfortable. Right, how’s the wine?”

“It tastes much softer and smoother than the fruit wine that I brewed,” Yun Xiao commented seriously. “It also has the aura of some Connate spiritual objects, causing one’s essence soul to be intoxicated. It’s a rare fine wine.”

“Good that you like it.” Li Changshou smiled and took out two jade pots. He wrapped them with immortal power and placed them beside Yun Xiao. “This is the Five-Element Liquor that I have been thinking about recently. It was brewed by gathering the Five-Element Spirit Qi and condensing it in the morning dew. The others have been taken by the wine immortals in the sect. If you like it, I will brew a few more jars for you later.”

There was a hint of joy in Yun Xiao’s eyes. She drank some of the wine in her cup and her eyes gradually became a little dazed…

“Being with you like this is also the most peaceful time for my heart.”

“Huh?” Li Changshou was stunned. He looked up and saw her raising her hand to tidy up her long hair beside her ear. She blushed as she turned to look at the quiet sea.

A sea breeze blew over, and faint spiritual energy surrounded him. However, Li Changshou had imprinted that painting in his heart… However, Li Changshou sighed softly. He simply lay down on the blanket and rested his head on his hands. He looked at the clouds in the sky and pressed his arms against Fairy Yun Xiao’s skirt. “What happened?”

Yun Xiao asked softly and took the initiative to turn towards Li Changshou. Wisps of mysterious Dao runes spread out from her body, covering the heavenly secrets. She asked with concern, “Is there anything troubling you? If you can tell me, I can make a decision for

you.”

“What I’m busy with now is to assist the Heavenly Courts in its prosperity. There’s nothing too difficult with all kinds of matters I’m handling. However, recently, I have made a breakthrough in my realm. In addition, I heard some things from Goddess Nuwa at her palace. I have a difficult question that I can’t answer.”

Yun Xiao pondered for a while and smiled. “Is it related to the tribulation?”.

“Tribulation?” Li Changshou was a little stunned. “Yes, I deduced a few years ago that there would be a huge calamity in the Dao Sect. However, the heavenly secrets regarding the calamity have been concealed,” Yun Xiao said gently. “That’s why I locked my two sisters on the island. I don’t want them to wander outside.”

“I see…”

Li Changshou thought that Yun Xiao had deduced the Great God-Conferment Tribulation. Her cultivation level was extremely high, so it was reasonable for her to have such a premonition. Li Changshou smiled and said, “What worries me is the Heavenly Dao.” “Heavenly Dao?” “Yes, the Heavenly Dao,” Li Changshou said. “I’m now in a strange circle. Using the Heavenly Courts as an example, I participated in the major matters of the world. The results of what I did were actually in line with the results of the deduction of the heavenly secrets. For example, when the Heavenly Courts accepted the dragon race, I became a pawn and helped both sides. However, when I think about it from another perspective, I was actually thinking about taking advantage of the situation. If I want to make a move against the situation one day and act on it, would that result in the manifestation of the heavenly secrets? Do living beings really have a choice under the Heavenly Dao?” Yun Xiao tilted her head and fell into deep thought.

Li Changshou slowly closed his eyes and sighed with a smile. “There’s no need to think too much. This is just a random thought. It’s probably born in the world and cannot escape the control of the Heavenly Dao.”

“Have you forgotten about the escape route?” Yun Xiao asked gently. Li Changshou said, “Of course I remember. However, who can guarantee that I can become a variable that can break through the limits of the Heavenly Secrets in every matter?” Yun Xiao smiled and said gently, “I once witnessed the birth of the Heavenly Dao. Countless Great Daos gathered in the world, intertwined, and formed, forming the will of the world. He had also witnessed the Dao Ancestor’s Dao Integration using the Creation Jade Disc to make up for the incomplete Heavenly Dao. Now, you feel that you are bound by the Heavenly Dao. Actually, the Dao Ancestor should be arranging something for you. The Heavenly Dao does not have any will. Do you feel much more at ease by thinking about it from this perspective?” “I’ve never thought about that from this perspective…”

Li Changshou’s eyes lit up. Yun Xiao said, “Do you know the teachings of Jie School?”

Li Changshou muttered, “To obtain a chance of survival for all living beings.” “Yes.” Yun Xiao smiled and said, “You always like to be safe, so much so that you can’t trust others completely. However, sometimes, this chance of survival will not belong to you. Help each other and overcome difficulties together. This is the principle that Teacher taught us as disciples.”

Li Changshou frowned slightly and carefully thought about those words. Although he did not feel enlightened, he felt like he was holding onto a rope… “Hahaha!”

Li Changshou laughed out loud. “Talking to a senior expert is really beneficial to my cultivation!” “Now you know that I’m a senior.” Yun Xiao snorted softly, but there was a smile on her face. The clouds were white and the waves were gentle. The two of them stayed quietly in the shade of the forest by the sea. From time to time, they would talk about interesting things, and play the zither and the flute. They watched time to turn into light and shadows. They did not notice the setting sun in the west and the starry night.

At the same time…

In a world near the five continents, a few figures had successfully met…
