Chapter 410 Which Clan Is Strong in Persecuting the Auspicious Beasts?

Why did Senior Brother choose the answer I gave him?

In the corner of the Cloud Light Cave of the Eight Treasures of Kunlun Mountain, Ling’e was folding her slender arms and thinking about that profound question.

She felt that she had to figure out her position in Senior Brother’s heart.

He looked up and saw that the middle-aged Daoist was tightly bound by the Yin and Yang Qi. His mouth was sealed… The Great Daoist Master said, “Junior Brother, isn’t it a waste to kill Bai Ze directly? Why don’t we take him into Ren School? Isn’t he handsome? His cultivation realm is not bad. He will do a good job guarding the house.”

The middle-aged Daoist could only move his neck. At that moment, he hurriedly nodded. Li Changshou pondered for a while and said, “Senior Brother, that’s not good. This fellow Daoist was one of the ten great demon generals of the ancient times. Back then, he was an ancient mighty figure who could drink at the same table as the Demon God Kun Peng… Letting the demon general protect our home is not good for the image of Ren School. People will think that we are too arrogant.” The Great Daoist Master nodded and said seriously, “That’s not bad. Although the Demon God has died, we still have to give the experts respect. Why don’t you ask him if he’s willing?” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Bai Ze, a rare and elegant person in the Primordial World. He would rather die than submit. There’s no need to ask. I should just kill him and let him live and die with the Ancient Demon Courts. I can retain half of his essence soul and seal it into a pearl. It can also be used as a living history book.” The middle-aged Daoist widened his eyes. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was filled with grief and indignation. Ling’e almost laughed out loud. She could almost hear the Daoist’s silent shout.

“Are you a human?! Are you a human?! Please be a human!” Something like that.

The Great Daoist Master continued, “It’s not good to deal with him in such a crude manner. After all, he doesn’t have any negative karma. Moreover, he has the reputation of an auspicious beast…”

“What a pity.” Li Changshou shook his head regretfully. “This auspicious beast has already transformed.” The Great Daoist Master clicked his tongue. “After transforming, you will look like a human. If you use it as food, it will indeed affect our Dao hearts. It is said that Connate spiritual beasts are full of treasures.”

Bai Ze trembled and tears glistened in the corners of his eyes.

The Great Daoist Master pondered for a while and said, “Why don’t we let him enter the Tushita Palace and be an old boy?” Li Changshou said, “Then isn’t the threshold of Ren School a little too low? There are so many living beings in the world who want the protection of our Saint. This is also a karma. Master should not like

it.”

The Great Daoist Master nodded to express his approval and sighed. “That’s right. There’s no need for this fellow to come up with a plan for Ren School either. Junior Brother, you’re enough.”

Li Changshou said, “Senior Brother, the people involved actually mind a little.”

“Hahahaha! Kill, kill, end it all.”

The Great Daoist Master laughed loudly. He raised his finger and pointed at Bai Ze’s forehead, which was hanging in mid-air by the Taiji Painting. Two drops of tears rolled down the corners of Bai Ze’s eyes. As he shook his head crazily, he made his body tremble under the restraint of the Yin and Yang

Qi.

“That!”

When Ling’e saw her senior brother gesturing behind her, she stood up decisively and shouted softly, “Great Daoist Master, why don’t you let him speak? There is a saying in the human race that humans speak kindly when they are about to die. This time, he only threatened Ren School and helped the remnants of the ancient Demon Court. If he is willing to make up for his mistakes… We can also use him as a model and set an example for those demons.” Bai Ze immediately looked at Ling’e gratefully. Li Changshou gave her a thumbs-up with his left hand. Ling’e’s face was flushed. It was rare for her to be praised by her senior brother.

The Great Daoist Master extended his right hand and swiped across the air. The Yin and Yang Qi on Bai Ze’s mouth immediately disappeared.

At that moment, the demon general was extremely angry. He opened his mouth and said, “Who said that I would rather die than submit! I will submit! I appeared this time because I want to submit!”

Li Changshou frowned and said, “Senior Brother, is that really Bai Ze?”

“We must have captured the wrong person.” The Great Daoist Master shook his head. “He’s a Primordial Senior after all. He actually has no integrity. Kill him.”

“Two disciples of Ren School, disciples of the Saint, don’t torture me like this!”

Bai Ze could not help but cry. “I arranged for someone to send jade talismans to the Immortal Du Sect because I wanted to get in touch with Ren School in advance and try to see if we can reconcile. I’m willing to guard the gate of Ren School. I only hope that Ren School will take me in. Don’t think about killing me!”

Li Changshou and the Great Daoist Master looked at each other. The two of them immediately… smiled. The Great Daoist Master said, “Fellow Daoist, I’m a little confused. Just hide. No one will have any thoughts about you. Why do you have to help Lu Ya? If not for you guiding Lu Ya, I would not have been able to detect your whereabouts even with the Taiji Painting.” “Ah…”

Bai Ze sighed softly and said, “When Lu Ya went to look for me that day, I wanted to avoid him. At that time, Lu Ya was surrounded by black Qi. The death tribulation had already descended. I once promised the Demon God to protect him, so I helped him break through the tribulation…”

“Oh? Demon God?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, you seem to be hiding something. If it’s really because of your relationship with the Demon God in the past or because you promised the Demon God, your tone should not be so light when you say that. It was as if you had already thought of an excuse. It seems that this fellow Daoist is not speaking the truth. Senior Brother…”

“It’s the Goddess of the Sun, the Goddess of the Sun!”

Bai Ze’s eyes were filled with helplessness. He smiled bitterly and sighed. “It was Lu Ya’s mother who saved my life. The day before the Demon Court was destroyed, the Goddess of the Sun knew that the Demon Court would definitely lose in the battle with the human race. Therefore, she entrusted this little prince to me and asked me to save him three times. I have already saved him three times. I don’t owe Lu Ya anything anymore! The reason why I said that it was the Demon God and not the Goddess of the Sun was because I did not want her reputation to be affected by this matter. I was afraid that others would gossip behind our backs. Even without Lu Ya, when Fellow Daoist Water God’s cultivation level breaks through and condenses the Golden Body of Merit, how can he let me off? Based on Fellow Daoist Water God’s personality, he would probably wipe out everything that was unstable in the Heavenly Courts and Ren School. I was also using the matter of the land to exchange a few blows with the Water God. The Water God actually thought of using the power of the Heavenly Dao to wear down the patience of the demons. That was indeed what I had overlooked previously. I felt that I was inferior to the Water God and decided to appear. If the Water God does not find me today, I will really have to hide in the Chaos Sea to protect myself.” His words were extremely sincere. It simply made those who heard it cry and feel sad. It highlighted the helplessness of having no choice but to do so because the path ahead was dark.

However…

“Junior Brother.” The Great Daoist Master was puzzled. “Why do you want to kill everything that is unstable in the Heavenly Courts?” The corners of Li Changshou’s mouth twitched. He said softly, “Fellow Daoist, you must have imagined it in your heart.”

Bai Ze was stunned.

The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “That’s right. Fellow Daoist Bai Ze, you must have misunderstood something. With your personality, if not for Teacher’s orders, you would probably not care about anything other than earning merit.” Bai Ze could not help but be stunned. He subconsciously asked, “If you did not have great aspirations, Fellow Daoist Water God, why did you put in so much effort to build a good relationship with Jie School?”

Li Changshou was rendered speechless.

“That’s considered an accident. Probably.”

After all, when he first met Master Zhao, Master Zhao had said that he wanted to befriend him, but he vehemently refuted.

“Then, why did the Water God establish the Sea God Sect?”

Bai Ze said firmly, “When the Sea God Sect was only five or six temples away, I used my mystical abilities to investigate from time to time. Fellow Daoist, you appeared at the Sea God Ceremony that day and deliberately befriended the Dragon race’s Crown Prince, Ao Yi…”

Li Changshou sighed softly. “If I were to say that a group of Magihumans took the initiative to call me the Sea God and stuffed a bunch of incense offerings into me, and wanted to deal with them, I would be bumped into by the dragon race. Coincidentally, Ao Yi still knows me. I can only counterattack passively… Heh, no one will believe me.”

Bai Ze frowned and said, “Then, are you deliberately luring the demons to gather at the Demon Ascension Mountain?”

Li Changshou said calmly, “I want to snatch the Man-Exterminating Sword, but I don’t want to let those negative karma demons go. I want more merit anyway. I can only lure more negative karma demons over.”

“Why did you scheme against Jin Chanzi of the Western Sect?”

“It’s a trial given by the Great Daoist Master.”

“Why did you befriend a mighty figure like Kong Xuan?”

“That’s an old friend of my Great Daoist Master. Actually, I’m not the one who took the initiative to befriend him. It’s this mighty figure who takes care of me.”

Li Changshou paused and frowned at Bai Ze. Bai Ze seemed to be in a daze. After being stunned for a while, he said, “Fellow Daoist Water God, what… What is your goal?” Li Changshou asked, “Don’t you think that it’s not easy to survive in such a dangerous place like the Primordial World? Otherwise, Fellow Daoist, do you think I have any ambitions?” Bai Ze muttered, “What about the one who went to the ancient Demon Court… to become the Second Heavenly Emperor…” Psht!

Ling’e could not help but turn her head to cover her mouth. Her shoulders trembled. The Great Daoist Master’s expression was a little strange. Li Changshou asked, “That person is not called the Second Heavenly Emperor. He should be called General Dongmu. Fellow Daoist, the times have changed.”

Bai Ze closed his eyes and remained silent. His eyelids closed and his eyes gradually lost their glow. Li Changshou and the Great Daoist Master muttered, “This Bai Ze is good at deduction and detection. He can be considered a superior Connate lifeform. He is also the only child blessed by the heavens. He can barely be compared to the Grand Supreme Elder’s ox. Why don’t we let him be a mount for traveling?”

“Of course, Senior Brother.”

“Junior Brother, since you have decided not to kill Bai Ze, why don’t you think of a way to restrain him? From the looks of it, his mystical abilities are quite good. In the future, if it’s not important, we can let him come up with ideas. That will save us the trouble.”

“Senior Brother, do you have a way to restrict your essence soul?”

“Of course.” Two wisps of aura that complemented and restrained each other in the Great Daoist Master’s palm intertwined and condensed into the shape of a treasure lock.

Li Changshou took out five scrolls from his sleeve. The two of them looked at the middle-aged Daoist with a goatee and smiled faintly.

Half a day later, in the depths of the Eight Treasure Cloud Light Cave, the chanting-like oath finally faded. A few muffled thunder appeared in the sky. The power of the Heavenly Dao came and went.

The middle-aged Daoist priest, who was kneeling beside a treasure pool, lay on the ground weakly. Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and his loose hair began to turn colorful. The red tear-shaped mark on his forehead was the mark of his essence soul. The Daoist’s figure dissipated and condensed into a strange beast.

It was like a huge goat, or a deer with soft white fur. It was slender and beautiful. There were horns on its head, and there were three seven-colored feathers around the horns, completely covering them. The four hooves were surrounded by seven-colored halos that complemented the light emitted by the long feathers. After the divine beast appeared, Ling’e could not help but praise, “Its main body is so beautiful… It’s a pity that it’s a male beast.”

Bai Ze’s body trembled weakly.

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Congratulations, Senior Brother. You have obtained a good mount.”

“Why are you congratulating me?” The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “Bai Ze is compatible with your character. Naturally, you will accept him as your mount.” “Senior Brother, you won’t accept him?” Li Changshou hurriedly said, “Then why are we wasting so much effort? Just let it go. I can’t use a mount.”

Bai Ze immediately jumped up and opened his long, pale-yellow eyes. He stared at Li Changshou fiercely. The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “Don’t decline. Why are you being polite to me?” “Senior Brother, I didn’t do it on purpose.” Li Changshou said seriously, “Senior Brother, imagine, if I ride Bai Ze out, what kind of mount should the Jade Emperor find to suppress Bai Ze? Moreover, my main body usually doesn’t come out of my house. I use my incarnation to move around. When my incarnation falls into danger, I will self-destruct. It’s not convenient for me to ride a mount.”

“That makes sense.” The Great Daoist Master frowned and said, “Then, should we bring him back to the Tushita Palace? I have yet to report this to the Grand Supreme Elder. What if the Grand Supreme Elder doesn’t like it… Junior Brother, why don’t you place it on the Little Qiong Peak?” “It’s not appropriate for the Little Qiong Peak either.” Li Changshou spread his hands. “I’m not prepared to reveal my trump card to him.” “Anshui City?” “Didn’t we just arrange for the seniors of the Demon Soldiers? If we let the ancient demon general go over, wouldn’t that be…” “Enough!” Bai Ze growled. “I’m flying in the sky myself!”

“Huh?” The Great Daoist Master swept his gaze across Bai Ze. Bai Ze immediately shivered and lowered his head.

“What I mean is, if there’s no suitable place to settle down,” Bai Ze muttered. “Why don’t you let me walk around outside? I’m good at avoiding disasters. When I appear, I’ll rush over immediately.”

However, the Great Daoist Master shook his head and sighed. “That’s not appropriate. Wouldn’t that make people say that our Ren School doesn’t know how to appreciate talents and persecute auspicious beasts?” Bai Ze could not help but lower his eyebrows and cry…

Have you not harmed enough? Have you not harmed enough? The five-layered Heavenly Dao oath, the method to control the Essence Soul, and the restrictions of not allowing him to transform into a human form. He had repeatedly mentioned that he wanted to promote him… Did he not know what the exact meaning of the “Yang” in the Water God’s mouth was!?! I wanted to follow the Water God and create another great cause! Forget it, forget it… “I have it.” The Great Daoist Master’s eyes lit up. He took out a jade token from his chest pocket and tapped it with an immortal light. The Great Daoist Master smiled and said, “Give this to Little Ji of the Immortal Du Sect and raise this Divine Beast Bai Ze in the Immortal Du Sect. Don’t let it go to your Little Qiong Peak.”

Li Changshou thought about it and reluctantly agreed.

That way, it would be easier for him to use Bai Ze’s mystical abilities to gather information.

It was more or less useful.

It was inappropriate for them to always cause trouble in Perfected Du’e’s Cave Abode.

The Great Daoist Master wanted to watch the show. He wanted Li Changshou and Ling’e to take Bai Ze back to the sect. However, Li Changshou did not trust Bai Ze at that moment. He was worried that Bai Ze would perish with him. Hence, a moment later… a translucent rainbow-colored divine beast dragged a cloud across the sky of Kunlun Mountain. It hid its aura and avoided the heavenly secrets as it flew towards the Immortal Du Sect.

There was a flying sword railing in front of us. Today, Bai Ze was pulling the carriage. The cultivators would not deceive.

On the white cloud, Li Changshou, Ling’e, and the Great Daoist Master sat cross-legged.

Ling’e asked, “Senior Brother, why did you choose my answer back then?” “This…”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Actually, there’s only one thing. Bai Ze should have been plotting for half a year. I only have half a day to react. I will come to a conclusion-no matter what choice I make, Bai Ze has already expected it. From what he said previously, he has been observing me for a long time.”

The Great Daoist Master asked, “Then why don’t you find the answer I said?”

“Senior Brother, don’t be angry.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Senior Brother, you did not think too much at that time. You were just playing around. After all, your cultivation level is high. Even if you spend eight to ten years chasing after Bai Ze, it would be a small matter.

Therefore, I took your choice as an incomplete choice.

Under normal circumstances, such a choice was the second most likely option. However, it was not suitable for Bai Ze, the demon general. On the other hand, Ling’e is smart but she doesn’t consider it sufficiently. The answer she gave is thirty percent likely to be where Bai Ze is hiding.”

Ling’e looked enlightened. Then, she smiled happily and moved closer to her senior brother.

“Only 30% confidence?” The Great Daoist Master smiled and squinted. “That’s not like you, Junior Brother.”

Li Changshou nodded slowly and said seriously, “Indeed, I’m only 30% confident. However, this bet will definitely be profitable. If I can find it today, I’ll save time. If I can’t find it today, I can only chase after it to the end. However, I still don’t understand… Bai Ze, why are you investigating the Sea God Temple?”

The three of them looked ahead, but the auspicious beast remained silent. The blue sky was like the reflection of the lake. The slender mythical beast glided in the sky, dragging a faint seven-colored glow. Every time it landed, it would leave a seven-colored wave mark in the sky.

Does he want to pay attention?

Due to the fact that he wanted to make the best mortal delicacies, he had gone to the South Ocean to look for ingredients back then. In the end, he had been stopped at the city gate by a group of burly men who could run horses. That was a disgrace to the demeanor of an expert.

“I have already seen this day,” Bai Ze said.

The Great Daoist Master and Li Changshou looked at each other with admiration. Li Changshou said in a low voice, “Indeed, we can’t make him stay.”

“Let’s do it.” The Great Daoist Master silently took out the Taiji Painting. “It’s considered a clean-up now.”
