Chapter 252 Only Getting Ordinary Official Treatment
In the backyard of the Sea G.o.d Temple in Anshui City, Ao Yi, who was dressed in a light green crystal armor and wearing a light green crystal helmet, was energized. He stood in front of the old immortal incarnation of his Brother Sect Master and asked excitedly,
“Brother Sect Master, what should we prepare for our visit to the Heavenly Courts?”
“Change your hat first.”
“Uh.” Ao Yi blinked and took off the winged crown on his head. He asked guiltily, “Brother, what’s wrong? Sisi chose this for me.”
Li Changshou shook his head and said, “The Heavenly Generals and Heavenly Soldiers like to dress in silver and gold. You have to join the group.”
Ao Yi’s eyes lit up. He hurriedly said that he had not thought it through. He ran to the room at the side and changed into a s.h.i.+ny silver chain mail.
Li Changshou was worried sick about the harmony in his younger brother’s backyard.
Li Changshou looked at his paper effigy’s image…
His white hair was tied up and secured with a Daoist band, and his wide robe made him look rather thin.
He held the horsetail whisk in his hand and stepped on the old fabric shoes.
Yes, that’s enough. After putting on the court attire, it’d really be… too dull on the outside.
Ao Yi whispered, “Brother Sect Master, Mother asked me to bring some meeting gifts for the immortals and G.o.ds of the Heavenly Courts. How should I give it to them?”
“Meeting gifts? What are they?”
Ao Yi hurriedly said, “They are all useless items that have nothing to do with cultivation. For example, the pearls of the South Ocean, the Night Illumination of the North Ocean, the corals of the East Ocean, and the mysterious crystals of the West Ocean… Mother said that this is not considered bribing the immortals since they are not treasures used for cultivation.
However, there are many immortals in the Heavenly Courts. I don’t know who is more important…” “That’s fine.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “How about this? Look at my hand gesture. If I give you a thumbs-up, you can take out a gift. If I raise two of my fingers, you can take out a gift or two.”
“Alright!” Ao Yi immediately agreed.
The two of them did not delay any further. Li Changshou flicked his horsetail whisk and made a white cloud.
Ao Yi asked, “Brother, why don’t I use my dragon body to carry you?”
“Don’t be like that.” The disciple of Ren School, who did not want to become a Dragon Rider, continued seriously, “The most important thing to do in the Heavenly Courts is to keep a low profile. We are aiming for the merit of the Heavenly Courts, not to make a name for ourselves in the Heavenly Courts.” Ao Yi looked ashamed and followed obediently beside his Brother Sect Master.
The white cloud floated up, and the two of them slowly rose into the sky.
The journey was calm and peaceful. When they flew to about 50 kilometers in the sky, a violent gust of wind blew from all directions and slashed towards the dragon and paper effigy like a blade.
Ao Yi immediately released his immortal power to form a barrier. The astral winds naturally could not touch a Heaven Immortal like him.
They rose by another tens of kilometers, and a layer of Heavenly Flames that could be seen with the naked eye appeared above them. They casually charged over. The astral winds and Heavenly Flames were mainly used to prevent living beings below immortals from flying to the sky of the Primordial World.
After pa.s.sing through the area of the Heavenly Flames, the sky above his head instantly became higher. The originally blue sky became much lighter. White clouds floated above him, and cloud paths were hidden among the white clouds.
It was the first time that Li Changshou had ascended to Heaven. He did not have much experience. He could only rely on his intuition to bring Ao Yi to the cloud path and fly towards the center of the South Continent.
After flying for a while, a magnificent White Jade Heavenly Gate appeared in their vision.
Look at this Heaven Gate.
It looks like it’s entirely made of white jade, with dragons and phoenixes guarding it.
The evil-vanquis.h.i.+ng sword hung in the air and wrote a letter to the crafty villains of South Heaven Town.
Li Changshou felt a little excited for some reason…
Now, he had arrived at this place earlier and more comfortably than he had planned when he drew up a plan for his immortal life when he was eighteen years old. He had jumped out of the huge pit known as the Great G.o.d-Conferment Tribulation. He would no longer be the most miserable cannon fodder!
The most tragic ones were those who were killed and could not get on the G.o.d roll.
Li Changshou carried his horsetail whisk and led Ao Yi forward on a cloud. When the Heavenly General guarding the gate saw them, he looked puzzled. Then, he thought of something and carefully identified them. He immediately sent voice transmissions everywhere.
“Everyone, perk up! The Sea G.o.d has arrived in the Heavenly Courts!”
Immediately, the Heavenly Soldiers guarding the Heaven Gate perked up. The Heavenly General hurriedly crushed the jade token left behind by General Dongmu and welcomed them with the Heavenly Generals.
“May I ask if you are the Great G.o.d of the Four Seas?”
Li Changshou smiled and nodded. He was very… kind.
The Heavenly Generals were delighted. One of them said, “Can you reveal your divine power? We have to verify it.”
Li Changshou flicked his horsetail whisk, and a golden ray of light appeared around him. He looked more holy.
The Heavenly Generals immediately cupped their fists and bowed. Li Changshou bowed with a Dao salute and smiled. “Can you verify my ident.i.ty now?”
“Of course, please, Sea G.o.d!” “Alright,” Li Changshou said pretentiously as he led Ao Yi through the South-Heaven Gate.
Li Changshou secretly shook his head slightly.
It was too unstable to let him go after confirming his divine power. They did not interrogate him in detail or search his body. He did not even know if he was an incarnation or a puppet… I still have to mention this matter to the Jade Emperor.
Otherwise, he would not feel safe about bringing his junior sister and master to the Heavenly Courts in the future. “Brother,” Ao Yi asked via voice transmission. “Don’t I need to give these Heavenly Generals any gifts?”
“We can think about it when we leave. There’s no hurry.”
As soon as Li Changshou finished speaking, a green ray of light flashed across the cloud path in front of him, revealing an honest-looking old man.
Li Changshou’s eyes lit up. He secretly extended… a palm towards Ao Yi.
Ao Yi blinked. Five fingers? Five gifts?
At that moment, Ao Yi hurriedly fumbled around in his storage Dharma treasure. Li Changshou rode a cloud forward and shouted, “Thank you, General Dongmu, for leading the
way!”
“Hahaha!” General Dongmu was in a good mood. “Sea G.o.d, I’ve finally waited for you to come up! Quick, quick, follow me to pay respects to His Majesty!
Li Changshou nodded and agreed. Logically speaking, he should go to the Hall of Enlightenment first. However, since General Dongmu did not follow the procedures, he would just listen.
“General Dongmu, this is my sea army’s commander, Ao Yi.”
“Ao Yi, quickly greet him. He is the most trusted person of His Majesty, General Dongmu of the Heavenly Courts!”
Ao Yi hurriedly walked forward and bowed respectfully. He shouted ‘General Dongmu’… and pulled out five s.h.i.+ny golden treasure chests from his arms.
Each treasure chest was five feet long, three feet tall and wide. They were neatly arranged in front of General Dongmu and the lids of the chests opened on their own…
The treasure light inside flickered and dazzled everyone. It contained Xiong Lingli’s fist-sized Night Illumination Pearl, a jade plate carved from peerless jade, and a dragon-eye-sized, flawless pearl…
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Brother, are you here to show off in the Heavenly Courts?
Is this what you call a good-for-nothing item? Can you get a hundred boxes of good-for-nothing items and give them to me at the Sea G.o.d Temple?
