Chapter 266 Look at This Trap, It’s Big and Deep
As the saying goes, touch pitch and be defiled.
However, Li Changshou did not expect that the moment he bid farewell to Fairy Yun Xiao, he would be kidnapped by Bi Xiao and Qiong Xiao and brought back to the deserted island that he had been hiding on previously... At the edge of the deserted island, a fish shook its tail and blended into the school of fish, slowly swimming into the distance. On the island, there were two cracking sounds. The shining Golden Scissors swayed in front of the “young girl” who was trapped. The paper effigy smiled bitterly and ignited the flames on his own. A wisp of green smoke flew out from the flames and condensed into Li Changshou’s figure. As soon as he appeared, he was bound by the golden numinous treasure rope. Looking at the two seniors of the Dao Sect and the experts of Jie School, Li Changshou was really puzzled.
These two scumbags...
Ahem, what are these two cute fairies doing?
Qiong Xiao, who was clad in a dress, squinted and smiled. She pinched her smooth chin with her slender fingers, as if she was thinking about how to torture Li Changshou.
Bi Xiao, who was dressed in a light blue short skirt, was squatting beside Li Changshou’s self-ignited paper effigy. She looked at the remaining ashes and her eyes were filled with surprise...
There were many paper effigies.
She had seen that scene before! Qiong Xiao raised her hand and set up a few layers of array formations. Li Changshou stood quietly on the beach and waited for the two big shots to speak. “You... Hmm!” Qiong Xiao cleared her throat and walked to Li Changshou’s side with her hands behind her back. She circled him twice.
“You’re th eSea God, Li Changshou, a disciple of Ren School, and an important minister of the Heavenly Courts... right?” Li Changshou nodded slowly and smiled warmly. “Senior, do you have any instructions for me?”
Qiong Xiao puffed out her chest and raised her head. She said calmly, “I didn’t invite you here today to make things difficult for you.” Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
She had already tied him up, how is that not making things difficult for him!?! If I’m not wrong, this rope should be a Postnatal numinous treasure, right? It’s even a top-grade one! “I will ask you dozens of simple questions. If you answer truthfully, I will let you go. I will also give you a few treasures as a congratulatory gift to you for cultivating the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.”
Qiong Xiao snorted and extended her hand to the side. Bi Xiao immediately tossed a light green pearl over. Qiong Xiao continued, “This is the Truth Pearl. It can tell if your words are true or false. If you dare to lie, be careful of my Golden Scissors!”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Big Sister, you’re deliberately being fierce. You’re just short of writing ‘this pearl is just to scare people’ on your face. Logically speaking, if there really was such a pearl, shouldn’t she have secretly put it in her sleeve to determine the authenticity of his words?
Is it going to work if you say it out loud... Li Changshou smiled and said, “Senior, feel free to ask.”
“Are you a man?”
“Yes.”
“You have been cultivating for less than five hundred years?”
“Yes.”
“Senior Brother Xuan Du ordered you to court my sister?”
“Nonsense.”
Just as Qiong Xiao was about to continue asking, Li Changshou frowned and stared at her.
He spoke before she did. “Senior, this joke is a little overboard. If this gets out, I don’t care about my reputation, but what will happen to Senior Yun Xiao’s reputation? Everyone in the Primordial World knows that among the Three Fairies of Jie School, Fairy Yun Xiao is pure and innocent. Fairy Qiong Xiao is intelligent and wise. Fairy Bi Xiao is sharp and intelligent. You cannot say such words.”
Qiong Xiao blinked and snorted. “No matter what you say, you can’t confuse my Dao heart!”
Although she said that, her lips curled up unconsciously.
By the side, Bi Xiao stood up as well. She and Qiong Xiao stood on each side. The two sisters folded their arms and began another round of questioning
Li Changshou did not feel guilty at all. Every time he answered, he would not think twice. The ‘Truth Pearl’ was just like a decoration. There was nothing unusual about it.
Not long after, Li Changshou understood why the two fairies had tied him up.
They were worried that he would deliberately get close to Fairy Yun Xiao. They were afraid that it would be a scheme of Ren School. They felt that their elder sister had been in seclusion for a long time and was too naive. Hence, they had schemed against him.
Their rationale was not bad, but that method... You guys are something, Three Xiao Immortals. Li Changshou felt a little helpless. From an outsider’s perspective, Fairy Yun Xiao was hundreds of times more reliable than her two sisters combined.
However, since Fairy Qiong Bi had come looking for him, Li Changshou could take the opportunity to plot and make the two of them help him keep the secret about his background.
In the question and answer session, Li Changshou fully displayed the art of language. Without a trace, he took the initiative to ask and answer. On the surface, he complimented and secretly guided them. In just a moment, he made Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao moan softly, unable to ask anything.
Qiong Xiao frowned slightly. “In that case, did we misunderstand you?”
“I accidentally caused you to misunderstand, Senior.” Li Changshou sighed. “Senior, can you untie me?”
“Untie you?”
Qiong Xiao raised her eyebrows and raised the pearl in her hand. “Sea God, Sea God, no matter how brilliant your schemes are, you still fell into my trap. Did you think that I was just scaring you with this pearl?” Li Changshou muttered to himself before asking, “Isn’t that so?”
“Hmph!”
Qiong Xiao twisted her fingers slightly, causing the pearl to emit a dazzling white light. However, a conversation could be heard from within.
That was Qiong Xiao’s twenty-fourth question. “Do you have improper thoughts about my sister?”
Li Changshou answered decisively, “No.”
The pearl trembled slightly and the light immediately brightened.
“You lied.” Qiong Xiao smiled smugly. “Did I win this time? I’ve said it before. If you lie, I’ll...”
As she spoke, Qiong Xiao took out the Golden Scissors and waved it in front of Li Changshou, making snipping sounds. “This...”
Li Changshou did not panic. He only said, “How else could I have answered that? Was I supposed to say that I have improper thoughts about Senior Yun Xiao? Pardon me but let me ask you, Senior. If you were a man, would you have such thoughts?”
“No.”
“Huh?” Li Changshou was caught off guard. Bi Xiao and Qiong Xiao shook their heads. Qiong Xiao clicked her tongue and smiled. She sighed. “My sister looks gentle, but she’s actually very naggy. Moreover, she’s always bossing us around. She’s afraid of everything.”
“That’s right.” Bi Xiao chimed in from the side, “When Big Sister gets angry, she’s very impressive! Didn’t you see how frightened our Big Brother was?!”
“Moreover, Sister is in seclusion all year round. She’s very boring.” “After she comes out of seclusion, she will still want to test our principles of cultivation. If we can’t answer her questions, we will be grounded. We won’t be allowed to go out for tens of thousands of years!”
“Sister likes to dance when she’s drunk. Her dance moves... Eh, it’s hard to say.” Why do I feel like... this “Great Interrogation Conference” is starting to turn into a complaint session?
Li Changshou coughed and said, “Seniors, it’s better to... keep these words to yourself. Senior Yun Xiao is just worried about you.”
Qiong Xiao pursed her lips and put away the Golden Scissors. She took two steps with her hands behind her back and said, “To tell you the truth, we didn’t tie you up here for anything else. We just wanted to test your feelings. You, on the other hand, are barely passable. You are also a disciple of Ren School which Uncle-Master values. Unfortunately, you are not a disciple of a Saint.” Bi Xiao continued, “However, the Grand Supreme Elder has imparted to you the Dao of alchemy. Senior Brother Xuan Du also protects you. That’s not bad. You have passed the test! Why did you go to the Heavenly Courts? Isn’t it a little lowly to be a minister to others?”
Qiong Xiao continued, “Besides, I asked you forty-nine questions just now. You only answered one of them dishonestly. You have barely passed my test. Your problem now is that your cultivation level is too weak!” Bi Xiao looked at Li Changshou and shook her head. “Yes, I’m not asking you to take half a step into the Saint realm. At the very least, you should cultivate to the Zenith Heaven realm as soon as possible.” “At the very least, you should have a few more powerful treasures. That way, you can protect our sister...”
“You can’t lack betrothal gifts either...” “Senior, Seniors!”
Li Changshou felt a headache coming on. He hurriedly said, “I’m sorry to ask. Seniors, you must have left the Three-Immortal Island for a while, right?”
“Yes.”
“Did Senior Yun Xiao tell the two of you to stay on the island and not wander around?”
Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao looked at each other. They suddenly thought of something and their expressions changed. At that moment, wisps of clouds came from all directions. They did not give Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao any chance to react. They wrapped around their legs tightly.
“Sister...”
Qiong Xiao’s face was a little pale. Bi Xiao had already pinched her earlobe skillfully, her eyes filled with panic.
The Dragon-Trapping Rope on Li Changshou’s body turned into a stream of golden light and dissipated. He immediately bowed to Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao with a Dao salute. “Seniors, I’ll take my leave first.”
As soon as he finished speaking, flames ignited all over his body. After a while, he completely devoured himself. While Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao stared with widened eyes, he turned into ashes that were scattered with the wind. An incarnation?!
Qiong Xiao heard Li Changshou’s voice transmission again...
“I’m afraid I won this round by luck. Senior Yun Xiao is easily convinced. You know that better than me. Senior, please don’t worry. I only have respect for Senior Yun Xiao. I will not have any extraordinary thoughts. Take
care.”
Li Changshou’s voice quickly dissipated, and Yun Xiao’s figure appeared in Qiong Xiao’s sight... This fairy, who was usually as gentle as water, had a cold expression on her face.
“Kneel!”
Almost at the same time that Yun Xiao appeared, on the coast of the East Ocean, a fish quietly appeared from the water and transformed into a middle-aged burly man. He ascended the South Continent on a deserted beach.
With a tap of his feet, his body drew a wisp of green smoke and instantly disappeared.
It was none other than...
Justice always outdoes evil. Although he wanted to see the scene of the Three-Immortal Island’s domestic violence, he could not stay there for long, lest he attract trouble...
According to Li Changshou’s estimation, he should not have to worry about the three big shots who knew about his background, moving around in the Primordial World for the next few thousand years. Li Changshou felt a little more at ease. What he had to do next was to return to the Immortal Du Sect to hide.
At the same time, Li Changshou turned around and went to the mortal city where his paper effigy was. He saw the young girl who was practicing her swordsmanship in the backyard of the general’s residence.
In the blink of an eye, twelve years had passed. She was already in her prime.
Therefore, after Jiang Lin’er came out of seclusion, she had brought Jiu Jiu there once. She had already planted an immortal seed for the girl and set up an immortal cultivation contract with her parents. In another year or two, they would officially bring her to the Immortal Du Sect. Jiang Lin’er would take her in as a disciple. She would really be Little Aunt-Master. Li Changshou did not need to care about that. He only used the paper effigy to protect her and treated her the same as the people on the Little Qiong Peak. Looking at the young girl’s potential, she could be considered to be above average. After observing her moves that she practiced with the sword, he felt that her comprehension should be quite good.
However, he did not know what his master would think when he faced that “little junior sister” who was 60% similar to Aunt-Master Wan Jiangyu.
It was time for his master to know about Aunt-Master Wan Jiangyu’s past... Li Changshou turned around and left the city. He used Earth Escape and quickly headed towards the path he was most familiar with.
In the blink of an eye, he had passed through the Thousand Mountains and was far away from the mortal world.
After reaching the Golden Immortal realm, Li Changshou’s escape technique had improved greatly. In less than four hours, he had arrived at the Immortal Du Sect.
That effect was achieved without his full effort.
Returning to the mountain was simple. Li Changshou used the paper effigy to go out. His main body returned to the sect without any
flaws.
He first went to the Heaven-Breaking Peak and knelt in front of the portrait of the Saint. He bowed quietly... for half a day...
When night fell, Li Changshou returned to the Little Qiong Peak. He greeted Ling’e and Xiong Lingli before returning to the Pill Chamber. Previously, in the Primordial Chaos Golden Chalice, he had only accepted all the insights and had not completely digested them. He would have to go into seclusion for at least a few decades before he could completely consolidate his current realm. After Li Changshou entered the Golden Immortal realm, the Little Qiong Peak’s vagrancy plan could be brought forward. Before he became a Golden Immortal, Li Changshou’s thoughts were only limited to array formations and restrictions.
Now that he had obtained the Dao Fruit of Longevity, his cultivation level was not low. He could start with his mystical abilities and combine them with the array foundations that he had left behind. He could slowly refine the Little Qiong Peak as a huge Dharma treasure! Li Changshou had also decided on the first destination of the Little Qiong Peak’s Vagrancy Plan.
The backyard of the Tushita Palace!
Naturally, he did not dare to think too much about it...
The bean plantation near the Tushita Palace was the best place to land.
However, that required his foundation in the Heavenly Courts to be more stable. He would only be able to ask the Jade Emperor for permission after he made a huge contribution.
Actually, there was another thing, Qi Yuan was still thinking about when he should go to the Heavenly Courts to become a low-ranking official and help his two disciples pave the way to the Heavenly Dao in the future.
Li Changshou thought about it carefully and decided to let his master continue down that path. Otherwise, his master would really have no future...
In the future, the Sea God Li Changgeng would naturally be the Sea God Li Changgeng. It had nothing to do with Li Changshou and his junior sister, Ling’e, going to the Heavenly Courts to be low-ranking officials.
That would add another layer of protection...
Wait!
Li Changgeng?!
A bolt of lightning flashed across Li Changshou’s heart. After the Golden Immortal Tribulation, a piece of information suddenly appeared in his memories of his previous life.
He pinched his fingers to calculate and pondered. In the end, he could not help but stand up and walk back and forth in the secret underground chamber. Heaven!
What did I do previously!?!
A white-robed, thin old immortal with white hair and a horsetail whisk. The adviser of the Jade Emperor who had a mysterious halo around him...
Isn’t that the Jade Emperor’s messenger who was in the calamity of Journey to the West? He was shouting ‘Great Sage’ and trying to trick Sun Wukong into becoming Ma Wen, the celestial being. He was also the old immortal who was running errands and made to invite the Buddha...
The Great White Golden Star, Taibai Jinxing?!
The Great White Golden Star, Li Changgeng!?! Li Changshou’s legs turned to jelly. He sat on the round chair and could not help but scratch his ears and cheeks. He thought about the story of him possibly appearing in the story after the Great-God Conferment Tribulation and grinned. However, on second thought, he felt that it might just be a coincidence. Moreover, the karma between him and Taibai Jinxing was too great...
What is this?
Have I dug a huge hole for myself and jumped in?
He cursed in the vulgarities of Ren School.
“Burp!” In a forest at the border of the North Continent, a few figures were sitting in the forest. They were drinking wine and eating meat. All of them had bloody mouths. In the middle of those figures, there was a middle-aged man with a refined temperament. There was a pile of tree bark in front of him. He was eating with relish and could not help but burp. He had no choice. Ever since he ate tree bark for three years, he could not stop eating them. “Lord Leopard, try the good wine and meat that our brothers got!” “Hehehe.” The leopard demon, who had just transformed, smiled smugly. “No, I’m quite satisfied eating this. I feel safe. Everyone, quickly eat. We can’t delay the task that the Great King has given us.”
“Don’t worry, Lord Leopard. As long as you don’t say that you will definitely succeed this time, we will definitely be fine!” The black leopard demon’s mouth twitched. He did not believe that.
He thought to himself, ‘I will definitely succeed this time. I will open up a new territory for Rhinoceros King and occupy that mountain!’ Thus, half a month later... The Primordial World News: At the border between the North Continent and the East Continent, an old demon, a Heaven Immortal realm rhinoceros, was exterminated by the three demon factions. Its territory had been divided.
