Chapter 311 - Heavenly Emperor’s Demon-Slaying Sword, The River Splits the Gods! (1/2)
When Bian Zhuang changed into the brand-new silver armor and stood by the calm but vast riverside, waiting for the Sea G.o.d and General Dongmu to inspect it, he… had extremely complicated emotions.
Back then, he, Bian Zhuang, had gone to the Heavenly Courts for the sake of that fairy.
Although he still did not know her name and had already given up on her, he could not go against his rationale.
However, in such an environment, the Heavenly Courts had used merit and authority to make Bian Zhuang… have the ambition to advance and become career-minded!
How long had it been since he, Bian Zhuang, had become the deputy commander of the Heavenly River Navy!?!
It had only been a short while, but the amount of merit he had acc.u.mulated was already several times more than what he had acc.u.mulated over the years of running the World Edge Pavilion!
Of course, there were not many opportunities to acc.u.mulate merit by running such an outlet for ‘impromptu Love Tribulations’.
Now, in the Heavenly Courts, Bian Zhuang would address the Heavenly Generals as brothers and when he encountered Heavenly Soldiers while walking around the area where he was free to move about, he would be addressed as ‘General’ or ‘Marshal’.
The word ‘Marshal’ was a thousand times more comfortable to his years than being called ‘Young Master’ a hundred times!
More importantly, when he occasionally pa.s.sed by groups of fairies, they would mostly cast curious and gazes of admiration at him. They did not dislike him or feel disgusted with him.
Those were only the benefits that he could see. He could not count the other benefits!
The most obvious example was that it was easier to increase his cultivation level. The bottleneck seemed to have disappeared…
He, Bian Zhuang, was now sincerely determined to become an outstanding general in the Heavenly Courts!
Therefore, when Bian Zhuang received the transfer order from the Hall of Enlightenment, he was so excited that his Dao heart almost suffered from an acute myocardial infarction!
However, when he saw the last sentence of the decree— “Lead the Heavenly Soldiers to provide the Amazing Flawless Sea G.o.d of The Four Seas with temperance”, Bian Zhuang’s vision darkened. He almost escaped from the Heavenly Courts overnight!
Why?
What he was most afraid of now was the Sea G.o.d!
Bian Zhuang was not a fool, other than in the aspect of romance.
How could he not understand that the reason he could receive so many rewards from the Heavenly Courts was that he had accidentally said something wrong after drinking? He had bragged that he had obtained the recognition of the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du and the Sea G.o.d of Ren School.
Fortunately, an extraordinary existence like the Great Daoist Master did not care about that small matter.
The Sea G.o.d was rather busy and did not bother about such a small matter.
But now…
Bian Zhuang was no longer an ignorant bean farmer. He completely understood how powerful the Sea G.o.d was in the Heavenly Courts.
It was said that General Dongmu had personally said that the Sea G.o.d was now in charge of more than 80% of the important matters in the Heavenly Courts. He was the most trusted servant of the Jade Emperor, and he was the only important minister of the Heavenly Courts who had the authority to mobilize troops, other than General Dongmu!
Of course, the strongest supporter of the Sea G.o.d was naturally the third elder of Ren School.
What about him, Bian Zhuang?
His family just had some a.s.sets. It was nothing in the Heavenly Courts.
With the help of the boasting that he had done and the harrow of the Tus.h.i.+ta Palace that he had, he became the popular Heavenly General of the Heavenly Courts.
However, those were all just a frivolous facade. As long as the Sea G.o.d spoke, he would immediately reveal his true form…
In fact, he would be thrown to the ground in the next moment!
“I’m going to die!”
What should I do?
Bian Zhuang kept hesitating. He wanted to leave, but he could not bear to part with his current wealth.
In the end, Bian Zhuang decided to pay a visit to the Sea G.o.d in advance. No matter what price he had to pay, he had to ask the Sea G.o.d not to expose his bragging. However, just as Bian Zhuang was about to leave, a group of Heavenly Soldiers came to urge him to immediately go to the Heavenly River to restrain the troops.
How long had it been?
He had just received the order from the Hall of Enlightenment yesterday, and he was already going to take on the role today!
At that time, Bian Zhuang’s legs went weak and he almost collapsed in his own courtyard.
The Heavenly Soldiers immediately helped him up. Without another word, they carried him to the place and placed him in the position of Deputy Commander.
Looking at the ingratiating smiles on the faces of the Heavenly Soldiers, Bian Zhuang really wanted to send them to the World Edge Pavilion’s Ladies’ Court, to serve the female immortals who liked to torture others!
What should he do?
What else could he do?
Bian Zhuang was in a mess. His immortal senses captured the figures of General Dongmu and the Sea G.o.d arriving on a cloud.
At that moment, the scene playing in Bian Zhuang’s left eye was that of him drinking with the Heavenly Generals and being addressed as “Brother Marshal” by the fairies. In the scene in his right eye, he was pinned to the ground by a few Heavenly Soldiers and thrown into the Heavenly Punishment Pool. He was struck by lightning and turned into ashes. The eyes of the fairies were filled with contempt…
He could even imagine what the fairies were talking about!
“Eh, he forged the orders of the Ren School to cheat and duper everyone. He even received so many rewards from the Heavenly Courts. He’s really shameless.” “Sc.u.m! Shameless!”
“I thought he would be the future Marshal.”
No…
All of this cannot leave me. I, Bian Zhuang, must grasp my destiny!
“Sea G.o.d!”
The veins on Bian Zhuang’s neck bulged. His voice was hoa.r.s.e as he roared and shouted from his essence soul.
“The Sea G.o.d is here! It’s the Sea G.o.d! Lord Sea G.o.d!”
Behind Bian Zhuang…
The 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers were lined up in three rows, one in the front, one in the middle, and one in the back. At that moment, all of them looked at Bian Zhuang, puzzled.
However, Bian Zhuang did not care anymore. With tears in his eyes, he rode the white cloud towards General Dongmu and Li Changshou.
A few hundred kilometers away, Bian Zhuang shouted, “Sea G.o.d! I, Bian Zhuang, am your deputy commander!”
General Dongmu was dumbfounded and dismayed. He looked at Li Changshou doubtfully and whispered, “Should I find another deputy commander? This one doesn’t seem… normal.”
“It’s fine.” Li Changshou squinted and smiled. His immortal senses captured Bian Zhuang’s expression. When he heard Bian Zhuang’s voice that was filled with immortal power, he understood why Bian Zhuang was like that.
Li Changshou was puzzled… What happened to this fellow’s pride when he was in front of the Dragon Palace?
However, Li Changshou did not want to make things difficult for his future “Second Senior Brother”.
Especially when he saw how handsome Bian Zhuang was now, he thought about the image of his future Second Senior Brother…
Yes, Li Changshou felt emotional.
Bian Zhuang hurriedly flew to Li Changshou. It was unknown if he was too excited, but he bent his legs and prostrated himself on the cloud. He lay on the cloud and flew thousands of feet away.
Crack!
Bian Zhuang buried his head in the clouds and pressed his palms together. He shouted, “I, Bian Zhuang, am willing to pursue the fairy for the Sea G.o.d. No, I’m willing to do anything for the Sea G.o.d! I will give my all!”
General Dongmu frowned and looked at Li Changshou. He asked seriously, “Is he really fine?”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “He’s still young. He can be of great use after some training.”
Bian Zhuang, who was lying in the clouds, could not help but be stunned. He raised his head slightly and secretly looked at the two powerful big shots of the Heavenly Courts in front of him. He frantically listened to the Sea G.o.d’s words…
What did that mean?
Is the Sea G.o.d really optimistic about me?
Is there something special about me that I didn’t notice, which attracted the attention of the Sea G.o.d?
Bian Zhuang was still in a daze when Li Changshou urged, “It’s cold on the clouds, Commander Bian, quickly get up. Commander Bian, please rush back first. Let the high-ranking generals come out. I have plans later.”
Bian Zhuang trembled and immediately jumped up. His eyes were blank, and so was his heart.
What is going on?
At that moment, Li Changshou smiled and said, “Commander Bian, you have to keep the harrow that the Great Daoist Master gave you. Don’t damage it.” “Hey, hey!” Bian Zhuang’s lips trembled. Then, he snapped out of his daze and shouted, “Thank you, Sea G.o.d, for your orders.” Then, he hugged the Nine-Toothed Harrow and turned around to rush towards the Heavenly River. He hurriedly shouted…
“General Dongmu, let’s go over.”
Li Changshou invited him with a smile. He and General Dongmu enjoyed the magnificent scenery of the Heavenly River. As they chatted and laughed, they headed towards the place where the Heavenly Soldiers were gathered.
Li Changshou suddenly recalled that his Second Senior Brother seemed to have a chain of immortal clubs called the World Edge Pavilion.
That was quite useful.
