My Senior Brother is Too Steady
Chapter 67: Those Who Understand Me, Will Live Long!

Chapter 67: Those Who Understand Me, Will Live Long!

They were in front of the Starry Dream Astrometer in the Divine Might Hall of the Heavenly Courts.

After the second dream was sent to the blue fairy, a disciple of the Immortal Du Sect...

The Golden-armored immortal official’s mind returned from the Starry Dream Astrometer. He grabbed a long spear and gritted his teeth.

He barked, “He actually refused! He even said that he was refining pills! Moon Elder, I will go down and bring him up!”

The Moon Elder was stunned and quickly stepped forward to stop him.

He knew that the immortal official was just putting on an act. Regardless of how small Ren Sect may be, they were still a sect. The Immortal Du Sect might not take them seriously, let alone let them nab their disciple.

However, he had a request for them, after all...

“You can’t, Immortal Official. You can’t. Let’s think about this from the long-term perspective and discuss it!”

The Moon Elder tried to calm him down for a while. Finally, the golden-armored immortal official was “appeased”.

The Moon Elder asked, “What did they say?”

The immortal official answered, “His junior sister is very polite and courteous. She said that her senior is in the midst of refining pills and cannot be distracted. She also asked for the reason that we’re asking to meet him, and wanted us to let her know if it’s something urgent.”

“Well...”

The Moon Elder immediately felt troubled.

He could not tell anyone about this matter because it concerned his own reputation. If it were to spread to His Majesty’s ears, the latter would definitely blame him.

The Moon Elder pondered for a while and asked, “May I ask for your help to look for his junior sister again? Thank you very much.”

“You’re too polite, Moon Elder. It’s just a small matter!”

The immortal official turned around and faced the Starry Dream Astrometer. He could not help but grin.

Every time he sent a dream, a large amount of his Primordial Spirit would be consumed. If he were to do it a few more times, he would definitely faint...

In the Pill Chamber of the Immortal Du Sect, Li Changshou listened to his junior’s description of the situation and gave her some instructions.

Soon, Fairy was stunned and she saw a layer of clouds.

“Senior! They’re here again!”

“Go.” Li Changshou smiled and nodded.

Fairy closed her eyes and quickly entered the dream while Li Changshou observed her condition from the side.

She just fell asleep...

There was no circulation of Dao runes or any other movement.

Li Changshou raised his hand and poked Fairy’s arm while she hummed softly and seemed to be half-asleep.

The Heavenly Courts are indeed worthy of being an organization established by the Heavenly Dao, for the sake of controlling heaven and earth. The dream must have been triggered by some treasure of the Heavenly Dao. How magical.

Using his immortal senses, Li Changshou scanned the various parts of the Little Qiong Peak and fell into deep thought.

The mastermind behind this might not be just the Moon Elder alone.

Moon Elder is probably just a tool, like the golden-armored Heavenly God...

The Immortal Seal Tribulation had yet to arrive. The Heavenly Courts have just been established, and even the Jade Emperor has to be cautious. The Moon Elder that the Jade Emperor had appointed, should be a timid person.

Now, for example, the personal disciple of the Master of the Three Sects had to address the Jade Emperor as Uncle-Master Hao Tian after he went to the Heavenly Courts, while the Jade Emperor has to treat the second-generation disciples of the sect with respect...

There are only a few people in Ren Sect, and behind them is the Grand Pure One.

The Grand Pure One had already entered the Tushita Palace of the Heavenly Courts. The Jade Emperor would definitely not dare to plot against Ren Sect, nor would he have any motive to do so.

Moreover, the Heavenly Courts is still a safe haven and the Western schools cannot have control for now...

Although the disciples of the Chan and Jie Sects are not on good terms, they had not fallen out with each other.

Ren Sect does not have much Dao heritage, to begin with, and does not have any feud with Jie Sect and Chan Sect. The possibility of them causing trouble is not high either.

According to elimination, Ren Sect is the only one that would dare to and might cause trouble for the Ren... Sect

Could it be that there is an expert in Ren Sect who feels that the Ren Sect has too little Dao inheritors and wants to use the Red String of Fate to bring about more offspring?

This is similar to my plan to use the Love Hex to urge a pair of rare spiritual beasts to mate and reproduce...

Who is this expert?

Could it be the founder of the Immortal Du Sect who is also the Perfected One who cultivated in the Kunlun Mountain?

That’s unlikely...

As an in-name disciple of a Sage, the founder of the sect was also very careful in his cultivation. He basically did not have much of a presence and did not dare to endure the backlash of karma.

Anyone who had heard the Sage preach could claim to be an in-name disciple.

After giving it some thought, he realized that the Sage of Ren Sect only had one personal disciple who would have the time, influential abilities, and power to get the Moon Elder to help him with this matter...

The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du!

It should be him.

However, this time, it was the Moon Elder who wanted to visit him in his dream. Li Changshou recalled his strange behavior previously...

The current situation was very likely to be related to his marriage. The Great Daoist Master had probably caused some issues which the Moon Elder had to settle.

I knew it. How could someone so toxic have a good impression of me for no reason?

Li Changshou raised his eyebrows, but he was puzzled.

If Youqin Xuanya only had a good impression of me because of Moon Elder’s arrangements, why me?

Could I have been targeted by the Great Daoist Master?

I have to replace out more later.

In terms of marriage, I should be able to use my little junior sister as my shield.

That was probably one of the few benefits that his master could think of when he accepted Fairy as a disciple.

“The good fortune of the Heavenly Dao is truly unpredictable.”

“The Primordial World is so vast that we might end up as mayflies.”

Li Changshou sighed softly and continued to think about how he could stop being passive.

He put his hands behind his back and waited for his little junior sister to wake up. At the same time, he began to activate the surrounding array formations.

Since the Moon Elder does not dare to offend anyone and wants to threaten or negotiate with me, the weakest party... what advantages can I get from this?

No, I can’t force it.

It would be best if I can act as I wish.

As a disciple of the Immortal Du Sect, he had his own plans. There was no need for him to rely on others. He would only be at ease if he could take the initiative.

However, if he could maintain a good relationship with the Moon Elder, it would be easier for him, his, and Fairy to go to heaven in the future...

The Heavenly Courts definitely had a wide network of connections since the Moon Elder was in charge of marriage.

This time, he could start from this. He could sell a favor to Moon Elder and let him know that he had done him a favor on purpose. At the same time, he could not expose anything...

Indeed, he needed to deal with it carefully.

A moment later, Fairy woke up.

After pondering for a while, she told Li Changshou about the things that the Moon Elder and the Gold-armored Heavenly God wanted her to relay to him.

“Moon Elder said that he had previously counted the clay figurines of marriage and accidentally touched yours, causing it to be damaged. Moon Elder feels uneasy about this so he wants to meet you to discuss this matter and he also wants to see if there is anything wrong with you.”

Li Changshou suddenly realized that the Moon Elder was intending to look for him to resolve the karma.

That’s easy.

Fairy was a little nervous as she whispered,

“Senior, are you alright? If the clay figurine is damaged, will there be no means for you to get married in the future?”

“I don’t know either.” Li Changshou shook his head and said, “Fine, I’ll just meet him.”

No matter what, the Moon Elder had come looking for him with a sincere attitude.

He only needed to be mindful of his status as a young disciple of the Immortal Du Sect and act accordingly.

“Junior Sister, protect me.”

“Alright!” Fairy answered in a crisp voice.

She jumped up from the reclining chair gracefully while holding a few treasures in her hands.

Li Changshou lied down on the reclining chair, clasping the two paper effigies and trying to calm himself down so that he could relax his mind.

As expected, he gradually entered a foggy dream.

In front of him was an immortal pavilion situated on the peak of the mountain. In the pavilion, there was a thin old man dressed in a wedding robe who was bowing to him.

Li Changshou felt like he was stepping on a cloud. He suddenly got an idea and rode the cloud forward before bowing to the old man.

“I’m Li Changshou, a disciple of the Immortal Du Sect. Greetings, Senior.”

The Moon Elder smiled happily. “I finally get to see you. Don’t stand on ceremony.”

“This is a dream. It’s not easy to entertain you. Please sit down and talk.”

Li Changshou nodded with a smile. The two of them bowed to each other and took their seats.

They looked at each other and smiled. However, both of them had some thoughts in mind.

The Moon Elder thought This person should be easy to talk to.

However, what Li Changshou thought was This Moon Elder doesn’t look... that weak either.

“Senior, please tell me what it is. I know that you are busy, so I don’t want to hold you up.”

“Ah, okay.” The Moon Elder deliberated over his words before clearing his throat and saying, “In the past two years, your body has been fine, hasn’t it?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “I just feel a little itchy at times. It’s not a big deal.”

The Moon Elder frowned and quickly asked, “Well, um... do you still feel your Yang energy condensing? Does your heart race, and do you feel any... sexual urges?”

“I don’t know about that.”

“Wait for a moment.” Elder Yue waved his hand casually, and the potted Acacia Tree appeared in his hand. “This is the spiritual treasure, the Acacia Tree. I’ll poke you with the branch to see if you feel anything.”

Li Changshou nodded cooperatively, but deep down, he was thinking to himself,

This dream is indeed extraordinary.

Come to think of it, there seem to be some books that recorded the matters of dream-traversing...

One of the branches of the Acacia Tree extended towards Li Changshou who allowed it to poke him, while his mind was filled with thoughts. His breathing quickened slightly.

Moon Elder paused for a while and asked with concern, “Do you feel anything?”

“Yes, I do...”

Li Changshou smiled in his heart as he could feel the Yang energy surging in his body, but he pretended to frown. “But not much.”

“Well, Well...” Elder Yue frowned and smiled bitterly. He continued, “Let’s try a few more times.”

Li Changshou coughed and quickly refuted.

If he was poked again, something might really happen!

“It’s fine, Senior. I’ll go back and recuperate. My Junior Sister is still beside me. It’s not convenient.”

The Moon Elder frowned.

Li Changshou hesitated for a while before continuing to speak with a smile...

...

An hour later...

In front of the Starry Dream Astrometer in the Heavenly Courts, the Moon Elder’s body moved and he woke up. He could not help but smile as he stroked his beard emotionally.

He touched his sleeve and realized that the Dharma treasure ring that doubled as storage space was gone. He heaved a sigh of relief.

It was completed.

“What a good junior. He has the demeanor of a disciple of a reputable sect!”

The golden-armored immortal official beside him coughed and slipped but he quickly regained his balance. He looked at the Moon Elder with a smile.

Although he did not participate in the dream just now, he had used his immortal power to create it.

He had almost drained the power of his Primordial Spirit, especially since he had repeatedly sent dreams...

“Moon Elder, is everything alright?”

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist. Thank you, Fellow Daoist!” The Moon Elder took out a brocade box from his chest pocket. “This is a small token of gratitude for you. Thank you.”

The immortal official’s face was full of righteousness as he rejected him resolutely. “Ah, I’m not a greedy immortal!”

“I can’t let you help me for nothing. I’m really sorry about that,” Elder Yue said politely.

One pushed and the other refuted, but the brocade box was soon placed in the immortal official’s sleeve.

The Moon Elder performed a Dao salute and left the Divine Might Hall.

After sending the Moon Elder off, the immortal official sat in front of the hall and heaved a sigh of relief.

He was much thinner than he used to be half a year ago.

On the other side, the Moon Elder was in a good mood as he flew forward with a smile on his face.

Changshou is such a good junior.

It is no wonder that this disciple of the Immortal Du Sect was able to obtain the Three Stars and Moon. He respects his elders and knows his manners. He was even considerate towards me, an insignificant immortal.

Most people would only talk to me about marriage.

During the long conversation with Changshou, he never brought up anything about marriage!

That made the Moon Elder feel very comfortable.

Li Changshou was smart to say ‘Let nature take its course’, and he is much more brilliant than the generals of the Heavenly Courts!

At the end of the day, isn’t marriage just a matter of letting nature take its course?

Changshou is extremely thoughtful to have made a vow to make me, an old man, feel at ease...

However, when they were taking an oath, the content of Li Changshou’s oath was rather long-winded.

However, after careful consideration, the Moon Elder felt that it was very perfect. He had considered all the conditions and circumstances.

He swore an oath on Dao that both parties would not mention the matter of the clay figurine being damaged, in the future. The Moon Elder would not interfere with Li Changshou’s marriage, and Li Changshou would not tell anyone about his dream.

Actually, the Moon Elder had taken a closer look at the clay figurine and discovered that it had been engulfed by the power of the Heavenly Dao. Hence, it was not damaged at all. It could grow, give rise to red strings, and had complete functions.

The Moon Elder was just worried...

However, he did not expect Li Changshou to be so worried about affecting his position as Moon Elder. Those words had really tugged at his heartstrings!

Was it easy for him?

He did not have any background, and his cultivation level was not high either. He had been appointed to assume his current position by the Jade Emperor. He had to deal with the outside world, and run errands for the Heavenly Courts and the Heavenly Dao.

He didn’t dare to offend the higher-ranking officials of the Heavenly Courts.

He did not dare to offend those who had higher cultivation levels than him.

He did not dare to provoke anyone with a powerful background...

However, the Hall of Marriage was a sensitive place. If he had any selfish motives, he would easily be turned to ashes by the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder...

“Senior, your life is too hard.”

The Moon Elder looked up at the sky with his hands behind his back, his eyes filled with emotions.

The ten-thousand-year-old Moon Elder knew how hard his life was!

Those who understand me will live longer!

If possible, I’d really like to make this disciple from the Immortal Du Sect my soul mate!

Yes, he had mentioned his master’s story.

After going through so many difficulties, Fellow Daoist Qi Yuan did not care about the criticisms about him. Instead, he used his willpower to transform into a Turbid Immortal.

Changshou was using this story to encourage me to continue persisting in this difficult life I live...

If Fellow Daoist Qi Yuan wants to join the Heavenly Courts in the future, I must help him!

Those compensation gifts for my friend Changshou are really nothing!

He hated that he had prepared too little!

In the Pill Chamber in Little Qiong Peak of the Immortal Du,Li Changshou woke up from his dream and quickly checked his surroundings. In an instant, he realized that Little Junior Sister was 30 feet away, with her back facing him. Her face was red.

Li Changshou looked down at his robe...

Um...

it’s hard to explain.

In his dream, he had been poked by the Acacia Tree. There was nothing he could do about it. After all, he was a normal male immortal and had not severed his feelings and lust.

Li Changshou slowly stood up and tidied his clothes without leaving a trace. He put away the ring that had appeared out of nowhere and smiled.

“I’m awake.”

“Senior... Senior.” Fairy’s shoulders trembled and she did not even dare to look back at him. She said in a trembling voice, “I-I’ll go back first... I’ll come back later!”

As soon as she finished speaking, she fled without looking back. White smoke rose from her head...

Li Changshou smiled and closed the array formation around her. He could not help but complain in his head. Seriously, she isn’t even that fond of me.
