Chapter 382 - The Punishment of the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperors Trouble (1/2)

Chapter 382 The Punishment of the Queen Mother and the Jade Emperor’s Trouble

The thin screen reflected the clouds and covered the moon.

The Jade Pool had the most restrictions on the Immortal Island. In the deepest part of the misty area in the Immortal Pavilion where the Queen Mother lived, Li Changshou and General Dongmu stood in front of the screen. They lowered their heads obediently but did not say anything… The Queen Mother, who was behind the screen, raised her hand to her forehead. Clearly, she was a little overwhelmed. Ahem, she was a little angry at the silent “pillars” of the Heavenly Courts. However, there was no choice. Li Changshou knew that it was better to speak less.

As for General Dongmu… Why won’t the Water G.o.d reply? Isn’t the Jade Emperor in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall? What’s going on?

“Hmph!”

A cold snort came from behind the screen. Li Changshou and General Dongmu buried their heads deeper.

Princess Long Ji, who was standing quietly beside the soft couch, was also frowning and thinking. She was calculating how many layers her “scheming” teacher had considered on this matter…

A few hours ago.

A ray of golden light suddenly fell from the Little Qiong Peak. It was the merit that the Heavenly Dao had given Li Changshou. At that moment, the concealment array formation on the peak activated on its own. Together with the array formation outside, it created an illusion that the golden light was heading towards the sky. At the same time, some spiritual energy and immortal power surged towards various parts of the sect.

It was very similar to the situation where he could not suppress his spiritual power when he was setting up the array, and thus his spiritual power leaked. In order to obtain merit quietly and smoothly, Li Changshou had put in a lot of effort. Li Changshou was naturally in a good mood after obtaining an unexpected amount of merit for no reason. However, at the same time, through the paper effigies that were set up everywhere, Li Changshou captured the auspicious phenomenon that appeared in the Three Realms.

At that moment, he understood.

He was in big trouble.

Any expert in the Primordial World who was good at deduction could almost deduce such a huge phenomenon…

The Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Courts had descended to the mortal world. That undoubtedly gave the Heavenly Courts more pressure. Moreover, Li Changshou had to pay special attention to the safety of the Jade Emperor’s reincarnation later. He could definitely not hide it from the Queen Mother.

Logically speaking, the Jade Emperor’s reincarnation should be protected by the Heavenly Dao. However, there were also variables in this world. The Heavenly Dao had an uncontrollable “escape”! When he returned to the Heavenly Courts, Li Changshou thought that the Queen Mother would have to wait at least seven to eight months for the Jade Emperor’s reincarnation to be born.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the Divine Water Residence, Long Ji had already rushed over…

Ah, no one in the Primordial World is easy to deal with!

Yes… during the early stages of the Great G.o.d-Conferment Tribulation, the unreasonable Perfected Taiyi had bullied the stone statue to death. Fortunately, Li Changshou had made some preparations beforehand, such as bringing Ao Yi and the Heavenly Soldiers to the Netherworld.

That meant that he, the Water G.o.d, was handling official matters. Moreover, it was the official matters that the Jade Emperor had instructed him to do. If the Queen Mother found out about this matter and made things difficult for him, he would be able to evade it. Li Changshou had also used the Shadow-Retaining Ball to record those phenomena. If the Jade Emperor were to hold them accountable in the future, he would give the Shadow-Retaining Ball to the Jade Emperor and say, “Your Majesty, when you descended to the mortal world, you caused too much of a commotion.”

Naturally, it was none of his business. The most important preparation was this moment, this place, and this scene. Regardless of whether the Queen Mother attacked him directly or tried her best to persuade him, he could not spill the beans! He insisted that the male G.o.ds of the Heavenly Courts would not waver for ten thousand years! “Is His Majesty really just in seclusion?” The Queen Mother’s voice behind the screen turned cold. Li Changshou and General Dongmu lowered their heads and were about to bow.

Li Changshou could clearly sense immortal power surging around the Queen Mother. Clearly, for a moment, the Queen Mother wanted to slap the two old immortals out of the Jade Pool. “Are the two of you mute today?”

General Dongmu stole a glance at Li Changshou and coincidentally met his eyes. The two of them agreed at the same time.

“No.”

Crack!

The Queen Mother threw the jade fan in her hand onto the ground and cursed, “One of you is an important minister of the Heavenly Courts who has been in the Heavenly Courts since the establishment of the Heavenly Courts. The other is the Heavenly Courts’ wise advisor who is a good planner and whom His Majesty trusts! Why did you fall silent when you reached the Jade Pool? Where is your usual high-spirited and arrogant aura? What about the way you exterminated demons and demons with a snap of your fingers, and the way you protected the Dao!?!”

General Dongmu and Li Changshou buried their heads deeper and agreed in unison again.

“Ah.”

“Rascal!”

The Queen Mother shouted angrily. The screen exploded. The fairies in the corner of the warm pavilion were so frightened that they lowered their heads and bowed. They did not even dare to breathe.

The Queen Mother was dressed in a phoenix coronet and robe. At that moment, she stood up. Golden light flickered and the phoenix hairpin made a soft sound. Her beautiful face was filled with dignity.

“General Dongmu, tell me. His Majesty has entered the mortal world!” General Dongmu shuddered and bowed to the Queen Mother. He lowered his head and shouted, “I really don’t know!”

“Water G.o.d!”

The Queen Mother glanced at Li Changshou, and the pressure on him increased. She questioned coldly, “Did you and His Majesty plan this?”

“Her Majesty.” Li Changshou raised his head and looked at the Queen Mother. He wanted to say something but hesitated. He smiled bitterly and revealed a hint of determination!

“I’m willing to accept punishment.”

General Dongmu, who was beside him… felt that he seemed to have been surpa.s.sed for some reason.

The anger on Queen Mother’s face instantly dissipated. She snorted and sat back on the soft couch. “Since you’re willing to accept punishment, so what if I grant you your wish? Someone!” The fairies beside her answered in unison, “Yes!”

“Bring Water G.o.d to the Heaven Punishment Hall. 20 Lighting Whips!” “Mother!” Long Ji stood in front of Li Changshou and s.h.i.+elded him. “How can Teacher disobey Father’s orders? Mother, please calm down!” “Your Highness,” Li Changshou shouted.

Long Ji turned her head and saw Li Changshou cupping his hands as if he was thanking her. There was a faint smile on his lips. He took the initiative to turn around and walk towards the fairies walking towards him from both sides. Without saying anything, he walked forward. At that moment, the fairies of the Jade Pool were more or less surprised. They stared at Li Changshou’s back as he rode the cloud towards the Heavenly Punishment Hall. They did not know how to describe this “old immortal”.

Long Ji’s eyes turned red. However, the Queen Mother snorted and closed her eyes to rest. On the other hand, General Dongmu had a few question marks on his forehead. He pondered carefully and quickly reacted…
