Chapter 350 - Li Changshou Does Not Even Show His Face (2/2)

Li Changshou pondered for a while and continued, “We still have to see how they react before we can come up with a plan. In general… If they are ruthless and thick-skinned, we have to be decisive and deter them. We can injure them. If they use scapegoats, we will insist that there must be more people plotting behind the scenes to make them hand over more masterminds. If they don’t come out, that would be simple. We just have to mock them and spread the news in the Primordial World. We don’t have to do much to achieve our goal of showing our might. They would seem like they had admitted to that matter and we can also make more accusations about them, ruin their benevolent reputation and affect their luck!” After saying that, the Great Daoist Master, Guang Chengzi, and Daoist Duobao nodded.

Guang Chengzi praised, “As expected of the immortal that Uncle-Master Jade Emperor trusts the most, he has already arranged everything for the Western Sect with just a few words.”

Duobao smiled and said, “Speaking of evil intentions, Changgeng, you’re the most evil one. Just because of a sin of spreading rumors, you’re insisting on forcing the Western Sect to lose their pride and expose the mastermind.”

“Hey, Eldest Senior Brother, you can’t say that!”

Zhao Gongming immediately stood up and said, “Changgeng is doing this for the sake of our Dao Sect’s prestige! Moreover, according to my understanding of Changgeng, these methods are considered restrained. He has not revealed the other methods that are more ruthless. Right, Changgeng?”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

A Saint!

There were Saints there!

He had more ruthless methods!

It was fine if he seized the opportunity to teach the Western Sect a lesson. If he really overturned the spiritual mountain, he, an ordinary minister of the Heavenly Courts, would definitely be in trouble!

At that moment, he was still a distance away from the spiritual mountain. The Great Daoist Master took the initiative to walk to Daoist Huang Long and let Li Changshou’s paper effigy enter his sleeve.

After all, Li Changshou was a disciple of Ren School. It was more convenient for him to come up with a plan beside the Great Daoist Master…

When the G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit saw that, she asked Daoist Duobao via voice transmission, “Senior Brother, are you guys talking in secret?”

Daoist Duobao nodded with a smile and repeated what Li Changshou had said about dealing with the spiritual mountain. The G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit, Jinling, pondered for a while. Then, she asked Daoist Duobao a few crucial questions, such as how they had to deal with the Saints if they appeared. Daoist Duobao answered according to Li Changshou’s plan.

The G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit praised, “Junior Sister Yun Xiao’s Dao companion is so thorough when handling matters. Our fellow disciples of Jie School should interact more with him.”

“Of course.” Duobao squinted and smiled. He sent a voice transmission. “When I have the chance, I will lure him to the Green Touring Palace to meet our master. According to my speculation, he has only bowed to the Grand Supreme Elder and has yet to go to the Grand Pure One’s Temple.”

“Oh?” The G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit nodded slightly and did not comment.

She suddenly thought of something and looked at the Great Daoist Master’s sleeve. Then, she shook her head and chuckled. Her eyes were filled with realization.

Daoist Duobao asked, “What’s wrong?”

The G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit slowly answered, “It’s fine. I just suddenly recalled that the Heavenly Courts’ Water G.o.d has a temperament. He has protected the dragon race by going to the Heavenly Courts to serve them. Previously, the Western Sect had taken action and the Sea Eye of the East Ocean had been destroyed. The dragon race had suffered heavy casualties. Back then, Junior Brother

Water G.o.d was one step away from stopping them.”

“It has only been a few days. He turned around and held some evidence against the Western Sect. The other party only had a plan to spread rumors, but he used it to make a fuss and devise schemes. When the three sects were alarmed, the three Senior Brothers who were in charge of the sect affairs stood up and suppressed the spiritual mountains in the Western Sect…”

“What is unbelievable is that this move not only helped the Dao Sect to show their might, but it also helped the Three Sects to vent their anger on the dragon race. It can also stabilize his Dao heart and prevent him from feeling guilty…” “Anyone would praise him for doing his best for the Dao Sect… Junior Sister Yun Xiao really has good taste!”

Daoist Duobao turned to look at the G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit and could not help but ask softly, “Are you thinking too much, Junior Sister? Changgeng, Junior Brother Huang Long, Junior Brother Gongming, Senior Brother Xuan Du, and I actually discussed this matter together…”

The G.o.ddess of Golden Spirit shook her head and looked at the Great Daoist Master’s sleeve.

“That’s why he’s intelligent. If we don’t show our faces now, we still have to be grateful to him. The Western Sect’s jealousy and hatred will not fall on him. Naturally, I did not feel that this matter is inappropriate at all. I only feel that his scheming methods are indeed a little scary… Eldest Senior Brother, if you have any uncertainties about teaching matters in the future, you can look for him to discuss them. It’s a waste not to use Junior Sister Yun Xiao’s Dao companion.”

“Alright!”

Duobao smiled and agreed. He did not say anything else.

A mountain covered in golden light appeared on the horizon. They were still thousands of kilometers away from it when they sensed the peaceful and stable Dao runes of the Saint.

They had arrived at the spiritual mountain.

The Great Daoist Master sent voice transmissions everywhere.

“Be more fierce.”

The immortals from the Dao Sect smiled at first. Then, they put on straight faces. All of them were filled with murderous intent as they pressed down on the spiritual mountain.

They stopped the cloud 500 kilometers away.

Daoist Duobao was the first to take a step forward. A s.h.i.+ny sword appeared in his hand as he shouted at the spiritual mountain, “We, the disciples of the Dao Sect will not offend the Saint’s Dao venue for now. Disciples of the Western Sect who can take charge of matters, come out immediately!”

The first half of his sentence was not offensive but the second half was infuriating. It made the old Daoists on the spiritual mountain grit their teeth angrily without saying anything.

After a while, golden light shone on the spiritual mountain!

A door opened in the array formation. Hundreds of figures flew out and rose to the same height as the Dao Sect.

The three old Daoists walked at the front. They laughed loudly and led the cultivators of the spiritual mountain hundreds of kilometers forward.

However, the rule of laughing first thing upon meeting was based on the premise that neither party had any enmity. Today, no matter how the Qi Refinement cultivators of the Western Sect laughed, the immortals of the Dao Sect only had cold expressions. They stood in a line on the cloud with unfriendly expressions.

That made the laughing party feel awkward…

An old Daoist priest said, “This place is the spiritual mountain of the Western Sect. Fellow Daoists of the Dao Sect, why have you mobilized so many people?” “Guidance?”

Daoist Duobao stood up again…

There was no choice. He was the youngest senior brother of the three sects. Guang Chengzi had joined the sect early and had a high status as a Great Daoist Master.

Duobao widened his eyes and cursed, “Someone in the Western Sect created rumors and caused trouble. He destroyed my disciple’s reputation and almost caused chaos in my Dao Sect. He almost caused a war between the two sects! If the Western Sect does not give us an explanation today, I’m afraid this matter will not end!”

The first three old Daoists used the three verses of ‘feigning ignorance’ at the same time.

“Oh? Is that so?”

“Why don’t we know?”

“There must be a misunderstanding.”

“Misunderstanding?”

Zhao Gongming snorted and stroked his beard as he walked forward. The expressions of most of the old Daoists from the Western Sect changed. Their eyes were filled with anger.

Fortunately, Master Zhao’s legs were very strong today. He only scolded, “Many of my fellow disciples from the three sects have used the Heavenly Dao Treasure to deduce that the person who spread the rumors is protected by the twelfth-grade Golden Lotus in your Western Sect!”

An old Daoist priest replied, “Fellow Daoist Gongming, you’re wrong! The Western Sect has always been open and aboveboard. We will always remember the teachings of the two teachers. It was not easy for the Western Sect to prosper. Why would we plot against the Dao Sect and increase karma?” Zhao Gongming had already received a voice transmission. He immediately laughed and cursed, “The Western Sect has always been open and aboveboard? Aren’t you afraid of being ridiculed for saying that? Turn around and ask which of your fellow disciples do not have any secrets that they’re ashamed of revealing. Those who claim that they do not shall step forward and swear an oath to let the Heavenly Dao testify!”

The Western Sect disciples fell silent.

In the dark, Li Changshou smiled. The paper effigy who was taking notes in the rear hall of the Sea G.o.d Temple in Anshui City immediately added a line of words under Zhao Gongming’s character column.

“Master-grade precious artifact of the Western Sect!”

An old Daoist priest from spiritual mountain shouted, “There must be a misunderstanding. Fellow Daoists, please calm down and allow me to ask!”

After saying that, the old Daoist priest turned to look at the hundreds of disciples and said, “Who among you did that? If you have done it, stand up and admit it openly. Don’t disgrace the reputation of our Western Sect!”

The Qi Refinement cultivators of the spiritual mountains were speechless. Li Changshou was also secretly waiting… He had actually held back when he offered his advice previously. There was a situation that he did not mention directly.

Ksitigarbha took the initiative to admit his mistake and appease the Dao Sect’s anger by punis.h.i.+ng himself.

In that case, Li Changshou would increase the threat level of Ksitigarbha!

However, after a moment of silence, a middle-aged Daoist flew out and sighed dejectedly. “I was the one who did this.”

Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief…

Fortunately, Ksitigarbha did not dare to step forward now. He should have some selfish motives. In the future, when he schemed against him, he would have many more opportunities to attack.

The few people in charge of the Dao Sect, the Great Daoist Master, Duobao, and Guang Chengzi smiled in their hearts.

How should they deal with this plan?

Zhao Gongming’s aura surged and his power covered the sky.

“How dare you plot against the Dao Sect? Tell me, did someone instruct you to sow discord between the Three Sects of the Dao Sect!?!”

At that moment, Daoist Duobao heard a voice transmission. He immediately took two steps forward and said coldly, “Junior Brother Gongming, hand over that oath template of yours and let him swear that he was the one who did it! If the Heavenly Dao finds out that he’s lying, it must be that he’s protecting the instigator behind him!”

The expressions of the cultivators from the spiritual mountain changed when they heard that.

They seemed to have seen this scene somewhere…
