Chapter 327 - Li Changshou’s Sense of Crisis
writer:Get To The Point      update:2022-08-16 17:01
  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 attitude”. 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 flash! 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 God. 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 Shi, 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 God.

  The Western Sect judged it to be the method that the former Sea God, 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 gods 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.

  At that moment, Li Changshou was expressing his attitude to the Western Sect. If they secretly instigated the West Ocean Dragon race to cause trouble, Li Changshou would kill anyone who jumped out. Today, the Grand Supreme Elder was here, and the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Courts was in front of him. The West could not afford to play any tricks.

  Suddenly, he heard a dragon’s roar that was filled with despair, coming from afar. Then, there was another explosion. The immortals and dragons looked towards the source of the voice and saw that the brown azure dragon had broken through the layers of clouds and seemed to be about to pierce through the Heavenly Courts!

  However, just as it flew ten thousand feet, it was bound by lightning chains that were thicker than a dragon’s body. More than ten Heavenly Generals shouted in unison, “Slash!”


  Lightning flashed, and the brown azure dragon was crushed by the chains…… Li Changshou quickly walked back to the Jade Emperor’s throne and bowed. “Your Majesty, the evil dragon has been killed!”


  “Minister Changgeng.” The Jade Emperor frowned and said, “Can’t the dragon race be united?”


  Li Changshou smiled and said loudly, “Your Majesty, according to my understanding of the dragon race, the dragon race is very virtuous and talented.”


  “Perhaps it is because the four seas had been peaceful for a long time, and the four Dragon Kings rarely revealed their dignity. That is why there are so many arrogant and ignorant dragons who do not respect the orders of the king and have offended their superiors!” “I’m willing to use the Deity Position of the Water God to guarantee that the Four Seas’ dragon race is completely fine. Today, I’m sincerely willing to submit to the Heavenly Courts and serve His Majesty!”


  As soon as Li Changshou finished speaking, the four Sea Dragon Kings behind him bowed and said in unison, “The dragons of the Four Seas are sincerely loyal to the Heavenly Courts!” The dragon children and elders behind them shouted in unison, “The dragons of the Four Seas are sincerely loyal to the Heavenly Courts!”


  “Sure!”


  The Jade Emperor chuckled and stood up again. He raised his hand and supported them. “Dear ministers, please stand up.” Li Changshou retreated to the side and stood quietly. The Jade Emperor said loudly, “Pass down my decree that the four Sea Dragon Kings will be conferred the title of Sea Gods of the Four Seas. They will rule the four seas and serve the Heavenly Fate. They will be given the fourth-rank Deity Positions. The Dragon Palaces of the Four Seas will be led by the East Ocean Dragon Palace. Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Ocean, will be a third-stage legitimate god and be in charge of the affairs of the four seas! The Dragon Kings of the four seas will continue the dragon race’s system in the Dragon Palace.”


  As soon as the Jade Emperor finished speaking, a golden light flew over from the Hall of Enlightenment. It was wrapped in a decree and landed in front of the Dragon King of the East Ocean, turning into a golden…… steel trident. The Dragon King of the East Ocean looked extremely solemn. He held the steel fork with both hands. Golden light flickered on it, and rays of light entered the bodies of the dragons.

  Ao Yi, who had cleared his negative karma, had obtained some merit.

  A black dragon soul appeared above the heads of the other dragons who had come here today. The black soul dissipated in the golden light. Cleansing the negative karma! The dragons were instantly excited. The dozen or so dragons from the West Ocean looked a little complicated…… From then on, the dragon race’s righteousness belonged to the Heavenly Courts. The Four Sea Dragon Kings were the Sea Gods of the four seas, and they also controlled the Sea God’s Divine Power Treasure. At that moment, the sea of clouds around the Jade Pool surged. Golden clouds condensed out of thin air and quickly rushed towards the Immortal Peach Banquet. A golden rain of light fell from the sky. Heavenly Dao Merit!

  Most of the golden rain of light landed on the dragons, while a small portion landed on the Heavenly Soldiers of the Heavenly River Navy. Li Changshou was the only one who stood there quietly without any merit. Sounds of music could be heard everywhere. Li Changshou slowly closed his eyes.

  The Jade Emperor smiled and did not continue speaking. He waited for Li Changshou’s attention to return. In a certain river in the East Continent Li Changshou stuck his head out of the river and looked at the golden clouds in the sky. The corners of his mouth trembled slightly. So much merit…… However, why did he suddenly feel uneasy? He whispered, “Thank you, Heavenly Dao, for bestowing merit.” The golden cloud above changed instantly and condensed into golden lightning. It was like a lightning pool of the Heavenly Tribulation and fell towards Li Changshou! Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

  Fortunately, the lightning did not have any lethality. It entered Li Changshou’s body and gave him a false alarm. He heaved a long sigh of relief.

  Even the merit is in the shape of Heavenly Punishment!

  Li Changshou wanted to complain in his heart, but he could not help but shiver. The lightning entered his body and expanded in the blink of an eye. The vast and surging power of merit seemed to be about to burst his immortal body……

  However, merit was not immortal power, and it would not really explode. It only filled Li Changshou’s Dao body. At that moment, Li Changshou felt like he was a sponge that had been filled with water. He was like a provoked puffer fish. The merit he had obtained rapidly increased several times, and the incense merit he had accumulated over the years was squeezed into a corner.

  The little essence soul opened its mouth and sucked. Waves of power of merit returned to the essence soul and appeared outside it, forming a golden armor.

  Li Changshou did a rough calculation. At that moment, he could already condense half of the Golden Body of Merit! The merit of the dragon race ascending to the heavens was many times more than he had imagined! From this, it could be seen that the dragon race was indeed extremely important to the Heavenly Courts.

  Li Changshou had met the Jade Emperor since the establishment of the Sea God Sect. Until today, he had been planning and scheming.

  He racked his brains and pondered for years in the sect.

  He roamed the four seas and scattered paper effigies…… The Blood-Sucking Mosquitoes, the rebels, and the Golden Cicada……

  Finally, another twelve years had been completed successfully. He had not given up on his previous efforts and had achieved perfection. Before he could get excited, Li Changshou turned into a fish and used Water Escape to disappear. After receiving the merit, his main body naturally had to return to the sect to hide. Previously, after being messed up by Jie School, his safety and concealment had dropped drastically. He had to think of a solution as soon as possible.

  At the Jade Pool of the Heavenly Courts, Li Changshou immediately turned around after collecting the merit. The Jade Emperor smiled and said, “Today, Minister Changgeng has checked the waterways of the South Continent. The rivers, lakes, and seas are under the jurisdiction of the various Water Gods. The water paths and seas are interconnected. The various Water Gods are conferred by the Dragon King of the East Ocean and Minister Changgeng. Where is Changgeng?” Li Changshou hurriedly walked forward. “I’m here.”


  The Jade Emperor said, “You have contributed greatly to the matter of the dragon race. However, I have just advanced your Deity Position today. It’s not appropriate to increase it. When you make contributions in the future, I will reward you.”


  “Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!”


  Li Changshou bowed and thanked them. Then, he and the dragons returned to their seats. Most of the dragons were grinning from ear to ear. They no longer felt depressed and aggrieved. The West Ocean Dragon Palace was the quietest, but they were all obedient and did not dare to cause trouble. Li Changshou returned to his seat. General Dongmu welcomed him with a wine bottle and said a few congratulatory words. Zhao Gongming pulled Li Changshou’s arm and laughed via voice transmission.

  “Brother Changshou, I’ve known you for so many years. You actually have such a swift and decisive side. You actually killed an old dragon just like that.” “I was forced by the circumstances.” Li Changshou smiled and replied. However, the paper effigy suddenly stopped and turned to glare at Zhao Gongming. Li Changshou frowned and grabbed Zhao Gongming’s arm. Zhao Gongming could not help but blink. He wondered what happened.

  Li Changshou’s eyes lit up. “Brother, what did you call me just now?”


  Zhao Gongming pondered for a while. “Did I call you wrongly? Well, the Grand Supreme Elder is here and I want to be closer to you, so I called you by your name…… Is that rude?”


  “No, no.” Li Changshou frowned and asked softly, “However, where did you hear the name Changshou?” “Two years ago, I went to Three-Immortal Island and heard from Third Sister and Fourth Sister that……” Zhao Gongming understood something at that moment. He frowned and looked at Li Changshou. “Is there anything important about this matter?” “I’m fine. I’m just a little surprised and not used to it.”


  Li Changshou had already regained his composure. He smiled and said, “I haven’t used this name for a long time. Brother, have you told anyone about this?” “Of course not.”


  “That’s good. Brother, please keep it a secret,” Li Changshou said in a low voice. “I’ve gained more than half of my success in the game against the Western Sect. There will definitely be another game later. If my name is revealed, it would be easily taken advantage of by the Western Sect. My cultivation level is far inferior to yours, Brother. If I encounter any evil spells, I’m afraid I’ll be in danger.”


  Zhao Gongming nodded solemnly when he heard that. He even said that he would go to the Three-Immortal Island later and remind the two sisters not to mention the word ‘Changshou’ to anyone else. Li Changshou trusted Zhao Gongming. However, at this moment, Li Changshou could clearly understand……

  His current “security system” had to be upgraded. The plan for Little Qiong Peak’s vagrancy was imminent. He could not wait any longer. Li Changshou was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a fairy report from the side. “Goddess, the immortal peaches are ripe. They are already on the way to be delivered.” The Immortal Peach Banquet was finally about to officially begin!

  At the same time, on the Little Qiong Peak of the Immortal Du Sect, a faint immortal glow shone in the straw hut by the lake. A beautiful figure floated up from the bed and floated in the air. The immortal dress on her body fluttered gently. A breeze blew from all directions and moved towards her……
