Chapter 327 - Li Changshou’s Sense of Crisis (1/2)
What happened to the debate about the immortal peaches? Why did he suddenly remove it?
Li Changshou attacked quickly, but the dragon race reacted even faster.
The dragon-headed old man who had just spoken was still shocked by Li Changshou’s “unreasonable att.i.tude”. Before he could recover, the Dragon King of the West Ocean beside Li Changshou had already turned around!
The old Dragon King’s face was full of anger. As his wide robe fluttered in the wind, he jumped up and pounced at the dragon elder. The elder’s expression changed!
He sensed the cold killing intent that the Dragon King was hiding. He immediately rushed towards the six elders of the Western Sect, wanting to ask the experts of the Western Sect to uphold justice for the dragon race.
That was also part of their plan.
However, just as the dragon elder moved, the Dragon King of the West Ocean suddenly sped up in mid-air. He left behind several afterimages and almost arrived in a flas.h.!.+ The intimidation of a bloodline and the pressure of an expert made the elder unable to move or retaliate when he faced the Dragon King of the West Ocean. The Dragon King slapped his palm on the elder’s neck and pushed the dragon into the sky. The dragon elder let out a low roar and the power of his bloodline erupted from his body. He was unwilling to let his neck be cut off at the brink of death and began to struggle frantically. However, the West Ocean Dragon King’s hand was like a steel hoop. His gaze seemed to be devouring the dragon, as if he wanted to break the elder’s neck!
Light surged around the elder. At that moment, he no longer held back. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a brown azure dragon that was thousands of feet long!
However…
Before the azure dragon could extend its body, a huge dragon head had already appeared in front of it. The pitch-black dragon’s head alone was several times larger than the body of the brown azure dragon!
After looking at the black dragon’s head, the thirty-thousand-feet-long pitch-black dragon’s body was hidden in the clouds of the Heavenly Courts. A dragon claw descended from the sky. The brown azure dragon that was transformed from the elder hurriedly shouted, “King!”
Before he could finish his sentence, the brown dragon’s body had already been grabbed by the black dragon’s claws. It was like swatting a fly, hitting the sea of clouds and causing waves… The black dragon’s entire body descended from the clouds and stood outside the Jade Pool and in the sea of clouds. Its slender dragon body displayed the majestic aura of a primordial overlord. It then attached its dragon head and let out a deafening roar at the brown dragon!
The sea of clouds surged, and the Heavenly Courts trembled!
At the Immortal Peach Banquet, the families of the East Ocean, South Ocean, and North Ocean, including the Dragon King, the dragon sons, and the elders, simply lowered their heads and stood still without looking back. That was the matter regarding the West Ocean Dragon Palace. The West Ocean Dragon King could suppress it alone and did not need them to interfere.
After a while, the West Ocean Dragon King returned to his human form. He carried the dragon-headed elder, who was covered in blood and unconscious, and returned to the Immortal Peach Banquet. The West Sea Dragon King placed the dragon-headed elder in front of Li Changshou and bowed. “Please punish me, Water G.o.d. Please forgive me for my lack of manners. I hope the Heavenly Courts will not blame me.”
Li Changshou nodded calmly and flicked his horsetail whisk.
In fact, there were many nice things that he could say. He could praise the West Ocean Dragon King for his righteousness and list the sins of the dragon race’s elder for not respecting the Dragon King and the Heavenly Courts.
However, Li Changshou did not say that. He only said, “Drag him to the Heaven Punishment Hall!”
Immediately, four Golden Immortal realm Heavenly Generals walked forward and trapped the dragon-headed elder with chains before pulling him into the Heavenly Punishment Hall.
Li Changshou’s voice sounded again.
“Destroy the dragon’s soul with the divine lightning and scatter the ashes it leaves behind into the Heavenly River. Don’t let this disgrace of the dragon race leave any traces in the Heavenly Courts!” The Heavenly Generals agreed in unison. After flying out of the venue of the Immortal Peach Banquet, more than ten Heavenly Generals followed behind.
The Heavenly Generals of the Heavenly Courts were not too strong and might not be as good at martial arts as some civil officials.
However, all of those who were sent to the Heaven Punishment Hall would be defeated easily with the power of the Heavenly Dao used by the Heavenly Courts. Even Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals would be instantly reduced to ashes.
Li Changshou smiled and walked towards the dozens of dragons from the West Ocean Dragon Palace that were still standing at their seats.
He teased, “Everyone, why aren’t you following your Dragon King? Could it be that you have something to say to the Heavenly Courts?”
“N-No.”
The Crown Prince of the West Ocean Dragon Palace, Ao s.h.i.+, was the first to lower his head. The other West Ocean Dragons did not dare to look at Li Changshou and hurriedly rushed to the spot behind the West Ocean Dragon King. Li Changshou looked at the back of the West Ocean’s Dragon King and sighed in his heart. It was not their fault.
Without the Dragon King’s initial indulgence and probing, how could the West Ocean Dragon Palace become the base for traitors?
Later on, he realized that it was impossible to salvage the situation. The West Ocean Dragon Palace was secretly controlled by the Western Sect. However, the dragon race had been siding with the Heavenly Courts too quickly. The West Ocean’s predicament could no longer be resolved. Today, he could only cut the losses lest he destroyed the destiny of the dragon race…
The elder from the dragon race had not lost his mind when he stood up just now. In fact, he had been waiting for a long time to attack.
The elder was also affected. The considerations he made were naturally from the Western Sect’s perspective…
The elders of the dragon race and the Six Paths of the Western Sect thought that they would have a debate with the Sea G.o.d.
The Western Sect judged it to be the method that the former Sea G.o.d, Li Changgeng, was best at and the one he liked to use to deal with problems.
However, they did not know that Li Changshou was also a vanguard of Ren School, a pioneer of the Dao of Spiritual Explosion Whenever it was time for him to attack, Li Changshou would never hesitate.
As a result, the Western Sect had prepared many backup plans and many excuses. They were even prepared to use the matter of the West Ocean Eye as a threat to force the dragon race to give up on submitting to the Heavenly Courts.
However, they still encountered the same problem…
His thoughts could not keep up with the rhythm. He could not open his mouth at all. The venue of the Immortal Peach Banquet fell silent again. Many immortals and G.o.ds were thinking about how they should face this “beloved subordinate Changgeng” in the future…
The pressure around the Jade Emperor became stronger. The Grand Supreme Elder remained calm.
Li Changshou walked to his seat as if nothing had happened and gave the six old Daoists a crooked back view.
His paper effigy was only at the Golden Immortal realm. He could not emit much pressure, but at that moment, he was like a mountain that was difficult to cross. At that moment, the six elders of the Western Sect could no longer advance or retreat. They had been punched by Li Changshou and lost their cards. Apart from sitting there and thinking about what to do next, they could only wait for the Immortality Peach Banquet to end.
