Chapter 340 - Coincidentally Passing By (2/2)
“By thinking?” Yun Xiao blinked. “Can you tell me in detail?” “Of course.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Firstly, the deductions I made are all about the general direction of development of this matter. I have to try my best to avoid small variables. Otherwise, my mind will definitely not be enough. The method I’m used to using is to list out every possible situation and then make the important events that appear in these situations simple options. It’s as if a series of squares are strung on a string, and a few different branches are formed… Can you think of such a situation?” Li Changshou gestured with his hands while Yun Xiao nodded slightly. He continued, “When you list all the possibilities and development directions, you can respond to each situation and degree in advance according to the different possibilities. When this happens step by step, the squares on one line will be lit up. Then, we will know the general development sequence.” “I see…”
Yun Xiao hummed softly. Then, her eyes were filled with admiration. She said, “In terms of planning, that should be the right thing to do. However, that might be too tiring.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “I’ve been thinking about the dragon race for more than seven years.”
Yun Xiao frowned slightly and asked softly, “Don’t you feel mentally exhausted?”
“A little. However, compared to repayment, this bit of exhaustion is nothing,” Li Changshou replied with a smile.
“Then, how long did your longest thought process last?”
Li Changshou sighed and said, “Seventeen years.” Once he said that, Li Changshou’s spiritual will, which had been quiet for a while, started to beep continuously… The PaG.o.da Master scolded jokingly, “You are indeed a little fellow that I have taken a liking to. You can think about a matter for seventeen years! You’re incredible!”
The Cosmic Ruler continued, “d.a.m.n it, you’re so stubborn!”
Li Changshou smiled calmly and took it as a simple compliment. Yun Xiao said gently, “Can I ask why you took so long to think about it?”
“Because of the Dao Sect.”
Li Changshou smiled and said, “However, the main reason is that I’m in the Dao Sect. I can’t let you ask me questions continuously. Can I ask you a few questions too?”
“Heh.” Yun Xiao chuckled. “Just go ahead. If you can be honest with me, why can’t I be honest with you?”
Li Changshou spread his hands. “Fortunately, we’re not alike.”
Yun Xiao could not help but smile even more. Li Changshou pondered for a while and asked, “I often hear that you will be stronger when you meet the strong, and weaker when you meet the weak. Is that a good thing or a bad thing?” Fairy Yun Xiao could not help but pout. “Why are you testing me?” Even her rebuke was so gentle.
After careful consideration, she answered, “In my opinion, it is a good thing.” “You’re wrong. This is a bad thing no matter what.” Li Changshou said seriously, “Firstly, my strength is unstable. There are too many variables. Secondly, if I have to rely on the strength of the enemy to determine my own strength, I would be led by the nose. The most important thing about scheming is to have one’s own rhythm and not be affected by the enemy… Of course, that’s just a superficial idea of mine.”
Fairy Yun Xiao pondered carefully and nodded slowly. She smiled and said, “Yun Xiao has learned something.” Li Changshou cleared his throat and asked, “Fairy, if you consider it carefully when you compete with others, you’ll be several steps ahead of them. Wouldn’t that be a guaranteed victory?”
Yun Xiao subconsciously raised her hand to adjust a strand of hair beside her ear and said, “It’s not a sure win. Sometimes, if you plot too much, the other party will destroy you.” “Alright.” Li Changshou praised her in his head.
Yun Xiao smiled and asked, “Lord Water G.o.d, do you have a way to resolve this situation?”
“It’s simple. Stand on each floor.” Yun Xiao fell into deep thought and pondered over it carefully…
At that moment, Li Changshou raised his eyebrows and saw the white cloud floating in the sky and the formation of Heavenly Courts’ troops. Heavenly Courts’ troops? Why did he come here instead of staying at the South-Heaven Gate? Is he playing the ambush card? Then, Li Changshou saw the Heavenly Marshal standing in front of the Heavenly Soldiers…
That’s fine.”
Li Changshou said, “Fairy, do you want to go with me?”
“Yes,” Fairy Yun Xiao said gently. “As long as you’re not afraid that I’ll cause trouble for you. I’m fine.” Li Changshou smiled and rode a cloud to welcome the Heavenly Courts’ troops. When they were a little closer to the 100,000-strong army, Yun Xiao exclaimed softly, “Golden Body of Merit, blessed by the Heavenly Dao. Could that be the incarnation of Uncle-Master Jade Emperor?”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless. It seemed that even the big shots of the Dao Sect could recognize him! How much of a failure is the Jade Emperor’s incarnation!?!
However, Li Changshou was still jealous…
Yun Xiao stopped outside the cloud and did not continue forward. Clearly, she did not want to meet the Heavenly Emperor. Otherwise, it would be inappropriate for her to bow or not.
Li Changshou walked forward and bowed to Hua Ritian. Hua Ritian raised his eyebrows at him.
“Water G.o.d, who is that fairy?” Hua Ritian smiled and said, “Why don’t you introduce her to us?”
Li Changshou said seriously, “That’s my good friend, the eldest outer sect disciple of Jie School, Fairy Yun Xiao.”
Hua Ritian’s eyes lit up. He took the opportunity to put his arm around Li Changshou’s shoulder and punch him lightly in the ribs. “Well done, Water G.o.d!”
However…
Ding!
Hua Ritian felt as if he had struck the Cosmic Barrier. A wisp of rebound force was sent back along the edge of his fist. Mysterious Yellow PaG.o.da? Hua Ritian looked at Li Changshou and then at the beautiful figure in the distance, who was wrapped in clouds and could not be seen clearly. As the mighty Heavenly Emperor, he actually… felt jealous. Li Changshou sent a voice transmission calmly. “Fairy Yun Xiao has already recognized Your Majesty.” Hua Ritian retracted his arm and raised his head. The armor on his body emitted a faint glow, making him look more awe-inspiring and dignified. “Ahem, yes! Water G.o.d, is there a war in the South Ocean? Let’s rush there to provide support so that more living beings will not be implicated.” “Marshal Hua, don’t be anxious.” Li Changshou said seriously, “The Dragon Palace has already dealt with the situation everywhere. Since we’re here, why don’t we go to the Sea Eye and guard it? That’s the weakness of the dragon race.” “Sure!”
Hua Ritian nodded. Then, the two of them looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with doubts.
The Sea Eye…. how do I get there? The dragon race had hidden the Sea Eyes of the four seas. The Dao Ancestor had used his great Dharma powers to conceal the heavenly secrets of the Nine Polluted Springs, in case someone found it and caused chaos in the world.
At that moment, he probably could not find it without the guidance of the South Ocean Dragon Palace or the deduction of the Saint…
Suddenly, Fairy Yun Xiao’s voice entered his ears.
“Fellow Daoist, there are some abnormalities 90,000 kilometers to the southeast. The universe is in turmoil. There seems to be a large number of living beings s.h.i.+fting.” Li Changshou’s Dao heart trembled slightly. He immediately discussed softly with Hua Ritian. Then, Li Changshou and Yun Xiao took the lead and rushed to the place where the universe was in turmoil. Hua Ritian rushed over with the Heavenly Soldiers.
On the way, Yun Xiao took the opportunity to ask, “What if this place is a feint attack by the Western Sect?”
“At this moment, we can’t determine if it’s a feint attack or not. The direction of the other party’s attack might be the eye of any sea in the four seas. After all, what they want to do is to force the dragon race to hand over the treasure vault.”
Li Changshou said seriously, “However, Fairy… I wasn’t making a casual remark when I said we should stand on every floor. Although I’m not too confident, I’m prepared to deal with it.” “Then, how confident are you, exactly?” “94% to 95%.” Li Changshou thought for a while and added, “Probably.”
