Chapter 39 (2/2)
The Chan School pursued excellency, so their disciples had a higher rate of Immortal Ascension, and their number of Dao heritage was in the middle.
The Ren School pursued fate, so the Immortal Ascension rate of their disciples was in the middle. However, the Grand Pure One did not like taking in disciples. Therefore, their Dao heritage was meager.
The Jie School pursued education for everyone, so their disciples were a mix of humans, demons, and spirits. Their survival rate was based on their destiny, and their Immortal Ascension depended on their looks. Therefore, their Dao heritage was widely distributed in the Trichiliocosm.
No matter how brilliant the Dharmic Dao from the Three Schools was, how prosperous their destiny was, or how much the Saint’s connate treasure could suppress their destiny, their Immortal Ascension rate still could not be pulled up.
Moreover, the Grandmaster of Heaven did not have any treasures to suppress it. What he had control of was such a lethal killing weapon like the Four Swords of Zhu Xian.
Thus, Li Changshou had always been very grateful that his Master had brought him into the Ren School.
“Little Changshou, come here.”
When Martial Aunt Jiu Jiu suddenly sent him a voice transmission, Li Changshou was distracted right away and looked at her, who was waving at him.
Li Changshou slightly nodded to her, expressing that he did not want to move.
Jiu Jiu stared at him with a threatening gaze.
Li Changshou pretended as if he had not seen anything. He continued closing his eyes and maintained his Wind Speech Incantation.
After some time, Jiu Jiu walked over with a smile and sat behind Li Changshou’s short table.
Jiu Jiu whispered, “Martial Nephew Changshou, did you bring anything fun over?”
“I didn’t,” Li Changshou answered through a voice transmission. “That was a reserved item from the Little Qiong Peak, which also means that it cannot be brought out of that place.”
Jiu Jiu’s expression sank, but she still maintained her upright posture. She complained through a voice transmission, “I’m so bored. This errand is bothersome, and I still have to wait two to three days here before it officially begins… Master is above, so I can’t even slip away.”
Li Changshou smiled slightly and pondered how he should let his Martial Aunt return to her seat as soon as possible.
It was not good to be attracting so much attention like this.
Li Changshou fished out a woodcut six-colored Rubik’s cube from his sleeve and lightly played it in his hands. He had a rather smooth play with the polished cube and very soon attracted Jiu Jiu’s attention.
“What’s this?”
Li Changshou stopped his actions and showed her the scattered colors of the Rubik’s cube. Then, he returned the cube to its original state in a flash.
Jiu Jiu’s eyes lit up.
Li Changshou scrambled the Rubik’s cube again and put it beside him before he sent a voice transmission. “Don’t give it to anyone else.”
“Okay, don’t worry! I know about your rules!”
Jiu Jiu agreed, took the Rubik’s cube, and lowered her head to start trying it out. She was soon immersed in it and slowly got up to return to her short table.
Finally, it was peaceful again.
Li Changshou continued portraying as a human surveillance system, which n.o.body had noticed and waited for this Demon-Sweeping Meet to end.
Half a day later, the immortal sects had more or less arrived. Handsome guys and pretty ladies had filled the water lotus platform. If one had nothing to do and scanned them, they were quite outstanding.
Suddenly, gongs and drums were heard. A white cloud floated over in the sky with dozens of ‘ocean people’ in purple robes and red robes on it. They were the large orchestra sent over by the Dragon Palace.
It seemed that the clam maidservants played the zither, while the mermaids sang softly.
The flood dragons played the bamboo flutes, the prawns beat the drums, the turtle immortals played the bra.s.s instruments, and the crabs beat the gongs.
A woman with a graceful posture in a thin, skimpy dress came over and danced in the middle of the s.p.a.cious venue.
Her dancing posture was graceful, and she waved her sleeves.
The two-day large-scale joint literary and art performance by the Dragon Palace had officially begun.
Li Changshou was not distracted because of this. However, there were lesser chatterings around him. Most of the people were watching them singing and dancing. Hence, he had much lesser information to deal with.
It would be good in the next few days if things were as peaceful as it is now.
As Li Changshou prayed for that, he a.n.a.lyzed what trouble he could be encountering.
The errand should not have anything to do with him. He was only at the Second Stage of the Void Return Realm. There was no place for him on such occasions.
That also meant that it was not a matter that concerned the young disciples.
Except…
‘Huh?’ Junior Sister Youqin Xuanya stood up and walked over to him with her meditation cus.h.i.+on as she carried a huge sword on her back.
‘This…’
Everyone was on good terms. Was there a need to be so overbearing?
After Youqin Xuanya took two steps, Li Changshou sent her a voice transmission helplessly.
“I’m sorry, Junior Sister Youqin. I want to rest alone.”
It was better to reject her so that she would not think about it.
Youqin Xuanya, who was 20 feet away, slightly froze. She looked up at Li Changshou and put the meditation cus.h.i.+on beside a female Perfected Immortal.
That female Perfected Immortal even said with a laugh, “Come, Little Ya. Why don’t you take a look at the melody I have written recently?”
“Yes, Martial Aunt…”
“Senior Brother Changshou, are you not feeling well?” Youqin Xuanya asked softly, looking deeply concerned with her beautiful eyes.
Li Changshou shook his head calmly and gestured to her with a slight smile, and his eyes closed.
This was a little awkward…
However, this junior sister did not lean toward him and attract others’ attention, which was a good thing.
Li Changshou sensed that when Junior Sister Youqin Xuanya had gotten up, many people around had gathered their gaze toward the Immortal Du Sect.
Although everyone was cultivators, Youqin Xuanya’s manners, looks, and figure were just too outstanding. It was hard not to attract attention to those qualities.
If anyone wanted to take her as a wife, they would feel more at ease after feeding her fat.
This was a conscientious suggestion from Senior Brother Li Changshou.
