Chapter 196 Don’t Talk, Kiss the Goose
The blood sword slashed downwards with a cold light!
At that moment, Li Changshou thought about it more than ten times and chose the safest path for the overall situation.
He immediately reacted, but he only waved his hand and sent the dragon flying out of the hall…
The sword beam chased after the dragon. Before the figure landed outside the door, its neck and head were cut off by the sword beam!
This sword glow…
Killing a dragon that was at the peak of the Heaven Immortal realm was as easy as cutting a watermelon…
Li Changshou was secretly wary. The cultivation level of the person who had plotted against him was far beyond the Golden Immortal realm!
The dragon blood splattered all over the ground. The corpse lay motionless in front of the hall.
Apart from the horns on his head, his head was almost the same as that of humans. It rolled down the stairs. Its eyes emitted a strange light…
Li Changshou controlled the paper effigy and made it quickly walk out.
Everyone and Ao Yi’s spiritual will saw that the white-robed old immortal threw out a few jade-green beads and began to recite some sutras.
The recordings in the modified Soul-Bewitching Pearl could be kept for a few months and could also be erased.
A few streams of light entered the Soul-Bewitching Pearls. They were the remnant souls of that dragon. It was unknown if there were any useful remnant memories inside.
There was silence in and out of the Sea G.o.d Temple for a while. Then, the panicked screams of the mortal women could be heard. Everything was in chaos.
Ao Yi hurriedly said, “Sect Master, that was…”
“The other party should be hiding in the dark to observe,” Li Changshou said. “The experts from the dragon race will appear next. If you didn’t invite them over, remember to investigate in secret later.”
Ao Yi immediately nodded and agreed.
After that, Li Changshou muttered to himself. To be safe, he told Ao Yi about what might happen next.
As if it was cooperating with Li Changshou, a dragon’s roar sounded in the air as soon as he finished speaking.
The wind and clouds in Anshui City suddenly changed. Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and lightning flashed across the sky.
In front of the Sea G.o.d Temple, the mortals were already in a state of panic. The Divine Envoys of the Sea G.o.d Temple tried their best to maintain order and organized them to leave in an orderly manner. They even punched the walls of the Sea G.o.d Temple to prevent any stampedes. That was Li Changshou’s “Sea G.o.d Temple Emergency Rescue Code”.
If he were to add negative karma because of the chaos, it would really not be worth it.
A few cracks appeared in the dark clouds, and numerous azure dragons flew out and took on human forms. They landed in front of the main temple, as two men and one woman. They were middle-aged…
One of them had a sullen face and he shouted, “What’s going on here? Why did my dragon die here?!”
The woman pretended to be kind. She frowned and said, “I think there’s another reason for this. We can’t jump to conclusions.”
There was also a person who pretended to be objective and fair, but secretly tried to sow discord. “There should be no such expert in this place. Could it be that someone is plotting something in secret? However, this happened in the Sea G.o.d Temple after all. Whoever is in charge of the Sea G.o.d Temple, can you give me an explanation?” Ao Yi was furious when he heard that. This situation was almost identical to what his elder brother had deduced!
Li Changshou pursed his lips. He felt that the other party’s acting skills were too poor.
He did not even look at the corpse before he started to negotiate…
According to the theory provided by the ‘Primordial Actors’ Self-Cultivation Famous Cla.s.sic’, no matter how bad the opponent’s acting was, it should not affect his performance.
Hence, the old immortal who was actually the paper effigy, smiled and walked out. What followed was a long, meaningless conversation. If it were not for Li Changshou’s Shadow-Retaining b.a.l.l.s, which he had prepared a little more of, and the fact that he had been secretly observing from the very beginning with Ao Yi, it was really easy for the other party to control the situation today.
Li Changshou also had the intention to nurture Ao Yi. As he spoke with the three dragons, he waited for the subsequent developments before asking Ao Yi, “Brother Yi, what have you figured out about this matter?”
At that moment, Ao Yi was too angry. He was so infuriated that he calmed down.
The little Dragon Prince smiled bitterly. There was a hint of disappointment on his delicate and handsome face. “I, a member of the dragon race, am unaware. I have long been infiltrated by the other party. You can kill these three dragons.”
Li Changshou said calmly, “Humans die for wealth while birds die for food. The same goes for dragons. The hierarchy within the dragon race is very strict. One’s status depends on one’s bloodline. Some lower-level dragons may have obtained high cultivation levels and treasures, but they might not have the status they deserve in the race.”
“Sect Leader, I’ve thought about this before. However, the dragon race has already been solidified. It’s hard to go back to the past.”
Ao Yi sighed softly, and there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes. “I used to advise my father to reform the rules of the dragon race and place emphasis on the capable members of the race. However, my father only laid on his throne with his eyes closed. He did not answer me.” Li Changshou said, “What your father sees is far more profound than what you and I see. You should think carefully and think before doing anything. Let’s not talk about this first. What do you want to do about this matter?”
Ao Yi said coldly, “Investigate! Find out the forces behind the three dragons! Investigate till the end!”
“Wrong.”
Ao Yiqi said, “Leader, are you not going to investigate?”
“Of course we have to investigate. However, it’s not like you to investigate so rashly,” Li Changshou said. “Later, send a message to your father. There’s no need to mention anything else. Just one word.”
“What?”
“Steady.”
Ao Yi was confused. Li Changshou sighed softly in his heart. He could only spend more time and effort to teach Ao Yi how to be steady and plan.
Of the Dharma treasures, ahem, friends, that he had with him now, the one whom Li Changshou had to worry the least about… was his stabilized Uncle-Master Jiu Wu.
Ling’e was not one of the human Dharma treasures, and Li Changshou would not let her get involved easily.
In the Pill Chamber, a man and a dragon sat half a meter apart. Both of them had their eyes closed, and they kept talking and answering questions.
The chaos in Anshui City continued. Fortunately, the mortals were not injured.
When the two experts whom Ao Yi had called over arrived-an old man with a dragon’s head and the old Turtle Prime Minister who had a turtle sh.e.l.l on his back, they temporarily suppressed the matter.
They put away the corpses and Dao saluted the Sea G.o.d statue as a form of apology. They took away the two Sound-Shadow Pearls from the hands of Li Changshou’s paper effigy and left in a hurry…
When the experts of the dragon race flew away, it was quiet in the Sea G.o.d Temple for the rest of the day, which was rather rare.
Xiong Buhan shouted, “I, the devotee in charge of the temple is here to wipe the ground! I’ll wash away the dragon blood properly!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the Sea G.o.d’s voice in his heart telling him how to deal with the aftermath…
A brand new story of the Sea G.o.d, ‘Defeating the Lecherous Dragon in the Sea G.o.d Temple’, will soon spread in Anshui City. It will quickly spread across the coast of the South Ocean.
Although he was scheming, the incense offerings were not affected.
In the Pill Chamber, Ao Yi went to a corner and was sending a message to the Dragon King to explain the trick that Li Changshou had taught him.
Li Changshou was thinking… After that, according to the script that he had written with the upper echelons of the dragon race, the conflict between the dragon race and the Sea G.o.d Sect would only worsen. The Sea G.o.d Sect would temporarily lose the protection of the dragon race and their external deterrence would be reduced. Although the Western Sect’s attention was focused on the dragon race, they had to be wary of them.
Let’s make something scary.
He had a bunch of Magihumans ready. Li Changshou had observed that many of the Magihuman Divine Envoys had bloodline abilities. They spat out a beam of light from their mouths, which transformed into strong arms and legs.
Why don’t we set up a Twelve Divine Killing Array?
Yes, the most important thing is to be domineering enough.
At that time, I’ll let the Divine Envoys shout ‘I’ll form the head’, ‘I’ll form the left arm’, ‘I’ll form the b.u.t.tocks’. The scene will definitely be quite domineering… and happy.
