Chapter 309 - Collecting the Dragon Clan’s Matters, Searching for the Mental Demon at the Mountain Gate (1/2)

It was rare for Li Changshou to act so swiftly. After setting up his plan for the Golden Cicada, he immediately began to execute it. In the spiritual will dream, Li Changshou reminded Ao Yi carefully for an hour.

The little dragon nodded while thinking. It was unknown if it was because he had read the sutra, but when Ao Yi answered his questions, he would think carefully for a while before speaking That made Li Changshou feel more at ease.

“Brother Sect Master, do you have any other instructions for this matter?”

“There’s no need to rush the matter regarding the Golden Cicada,” Li Changshou said.

“We just need to plan slowly and let more living beings know about this matter. This Golden Cicada has been injured by the Great Daoist Master previously. It will probably take thousands of years for it to recover.”

“Yes.” Ao Yi nodded heavily, but he hesitated to speak. His eyes flickered. “Just say it.”

“Brother Sect Master.” Ao Yi sighed with a heavy heart. He bowed to Li Changshou and asked, “Then, what is the secret of the Immortal Peach Banquet? Would the Jade Emperor attack the dragon race directly…”

Li Changshou put his hands behind his back and sighed. “Let me tell you something. Don’t tell anyone. The Heavenly General who injured Golden Cicada a few days ago in the West Ocean was the Jade Emperor. However, he hid his tracks.”

“What?”

Ao Yi could not help but be stunned. Li Changshou continued, “Do you know how high the Jade Emperor’s cultivation level is? The Jade Emperor’s mystical abilities and Dharma powers are probably not inferior to the famous experts of the three sects. He also has the power of the Heavenly Dao. His strength is unfathomable. Don’t forget that the Jade Emperor came from the Purple Cloud Palace and cultivated for a long time in front of the Dao Ancestor.”

Ao Yi nodded after hearing his Brother Sect Master’s words.

Li Changshou continued, “That day, His Majesty discovered that the experts of the West Ocean Dragon Palace who appeared on the surface of the sea had abnormal essence souls. There were about fifty to sixty percent of them who were unusual.”

“What!?”

Ao Yi could not help but turn pale with fright. “How could this happen? I’ll go look for Father now!”

“The Dragon Kings should have tacitly agreed to this matter,” Li Changshou said. “Why are you in a hurry again? Copy the sutra that I gave you three hundred times when we return. Remember to burn the paper and cloth after copying it.” Ao Yi was puzzled, but he nodded and agreed. “Brother Sect Master, how can my father and uncles agree to this?” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Firstly, the Dragon Kings are all extraordinary. How could they be so easily schemed against since they could all survive in the ancient times until today?

Secondly, the true foundation of the dragon race is at the eye of the sea and not in the Dragon Palace. Even if the entire West Ocean Dragon Palace is controlled, they can be rebuilt at any time.

Thirdly, the dragon eggs cannot be placed in a single nest. I remember that the dragon race should have such slang. Therefore, it is reasonable for the few Dragon Kings to make such a choice and turn a blind eye to what happened in the West Ocean Dragon Palace.” “Well…”

Ao Yi pursed his lips and slightly suspected his life.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “You’re still young and tender. Let me test you again. What do you think the Jade Emperor will think when he sees this situation?” Ao Yi hurriedly said, “His Majesty will probably be worried that the Four Seas Dragon Palace will be controlled by someone over time?”

A certain Heavenly Emperor who did not want to reveal his name felt very impressed.

“How can it be so simple?”

Li Changshou sighed and said, “The Jade Emperor is very dissatisfied with the dragon race’s idea of wanting everything to go smoothly. The dragon race thinks that as the victims, they can conceal the fact that the West Ocean Dragon Palace had been infiltrated by the Western Sect. After all, the dragon race is the one that had been schemed against. However, how could such a thing be hidden from the Jade Emperor? The Jade Emperor’s intelligence and vision are far above mine.” A certain Heavenly Emperor who did not want to reveal his name praised him.

Ao Yi immediately understood the entire situation. He looked worried as he paced around Li Changshou anxiously.

“Brother Sect Master, what… What should we do? Father and the rest actually…”

“It’s just normal,” Li Changshou said. “Since you’re so worried, I’ll tell you everything honestly today. Ao Yi, the dragon race needs you to step forward now.” Ao Yi held his breath and bent forward slightly to listen carefully.

Li Changshou pondered carefully. Although that was a step that he had thought of previously, he had to be honest with Ao Yi and get rid of the worries that he had buried previously. If he and Ao Yi could not work together, it would definitely be difficult for them to succeed in the twelve years before the Immortal Peach Banquet. “Ao Yi, do you know that I was only a Qi Refinement cultivator in the Heaven Immortal realm during the early stages of the Sea G.o.d Sect’s creation? I did not deliberately establish the Sea G.o.d Sect.”

Ao Yi did not understand why the Sect Master would bring that up.

However, afterwards, Ao Yi captured the key information- Heaven Immortal realm! When I was sparring with Brother Sect Master in the Immortal Du Sect, was he just teasing me?

Li Changshou’s voice was calm as he recounted what happened back then. “At that time, I only had one ident.i.ty. I was a disciple of Ren School, Li Changshou of the Immortal Du Sect. It was because of a coincidence that the Magihumans of Xiong Village b.u.mped into me when I was comprehending the Great Dao. They wors.h.i.+ped me as the Sea G.o.d and set up a temple to wors.h.i.+p me. Then, things got out of hand. I’m afraid you won’t believe me. When we met at the South Ocean, I went to destroy the Sea G.o.d Sect. At that time, I was mainly worried that the Sea G.o.d Sect would cause trouble for me and offend the Western Sect. However, because the dragon race had appeared and you had seen through the Sea G.o.d’s ident.i.ty, I could only change my train of thought and try to control the Sea G.o.d Sect. I never expected that the Sea G.o.d Sect would become my opportunity.”

Ao Yi listened attentively and could not help but ask, “How is it an opportunity?” “Due to the fact that the Sea G.o.d Sect has obtained the help of the dragon race, the influence it has over the people gradually widened. As a result, the Western Sect schemed against me and attracted the Jade Emperor to observe me. This allowed me to have the first contact with the Jade Emperor. Due to the influence of the Jade Emperor, the Heavenly Courts, and the dragon race, I was chosen by the Saint as a human Dharma treasure. Ahem, I was chosen as a representative for this matter. The reason I can be recognized by the Great Daoist Master is actually after the rise of the Sea G.o.d Sect… Only by walking step by step did the Sea G.o.d of today appear.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “In the beginning, I was worried every day about the Sea G.o.d Sect. I was afraid that I would be targeted by the Western Sect and torn apart by the dragon race. It’s really like walking on thin ice.”

When Ao Yi heard that, he looked a little awkward. Then, he pursed his lips and frowned. He bowed to Li Changshou. “I’ve troubled you, Brother!” “This is probably our fate. There’s no need to bow.”

Li Changshou gently supported Ao Yi. Then, he turned around and looked at the figure standing behind him in the spiritual will dream.

“Ao Yi, take a look.”

Ao Yi looked up. Li Changshou waved his sleeve, and the fog around him dissipated. The appearance of the Great Daoist Master was slowly revealed on the large statue. Then, his appearance changed again and returned to Li Changshou’s appearance. Li Changshou smiled and said, “At that time, I could only rely on myself. I could only find a balance between the Western Sect, the dragon race, and the Heavenly Courts. You have asked me many times before why the human race can be strong. It’s probably because… We are braver and more courageous.”

“Brother!”

Ao Yi was filled with guilt. He sighed and said, “I didn’t know about all these. I placed all the blame on you, Brother. I even…” “Ao Yi, I’m telling you all of this today for no other reason than to let you know that the matter regarding the dragon race’s entry to Heaven is not my plan, nor is it the Jade Emperor’s plan. That’s the way it is. It’s just fade and destiny.” “Destiny…”

Ao Yi lowered his head and pondered. The young man’s face was more troubled than usual.

Li Changshou was about to continue when Ao Yi suddenly took two steps back. He lifted the hem of his robe and knelt down.

“What are you doing?”

Li Changshou supported him while Ao Yi bowed deeply to him.

“I was ignorant and fearless previously. I did not know that Brother Sect Master was in a difficult situation. Please forgive me! Now, the dragon race is already on the cliff. One wrong step and we will be crushed. Sect Master, please save my dragon race and make my dragon race serve the Heavenly Courts! Today, I swear that I will entrust my life to you, Sect Master!”

Li Changshou did not expect Ao Yi to figure out the key point so quickly. He did not expect Ao Yi to have such a huge reaction. However, at that point, Li Changshou took the opportunity to move forward and asked, “Even if you will get misunderstood and scolded by your clansmen?” “What’s there to fear about?” “Get up,” Li Changshou said. “I’ll tell you the plan for the Immortal Peach Banquet in detail. Ao Yi, you have to remember. The purpose of us doing all of this is to make the four Sea Dragon Kings take the initiative to ask for orders and be loyal to the Heavenly Courts before the Jade Emperor gives his decree during the Immortal Peach Banquet. That way, the dragon race will have more luck!”

Ao Yi jumped up, his eyes filled with determination.

Li Changshou had already started to explain the next steps of the operation…

“There are only twelve years. There are not many things that we can do. Therefore, we cannot waste a single day.”

The spiritual communication lasted for more than thirty hours this time, giving Li Changshou a headache.
