Chapter 94 - Please Be Steady
There were sounds of mumbling and rustling.
Li Changshou and Ling’e stood in front of Youqin Xuanya. Ling’e and Youqin Xuanya kept whispering to each other, but Li Changshou simply nodded or shook his head.
In reality, it was Li Changshou who was secretly transmitting the message and handing a porcelain bottle to Youqin Xuanya without leaving any clues…
“Senior Brother Changshou why don’t you come forward to do it?”

Youqin Xuanya used her voice transmission technique and continued, “I know that you don’t want to be implicated and involved with these formalities but, Senior, the reputation that you deserve should be given to you.”
“Li Changshou” smiled and said, “Junior Sister Youqin, if you can see and hear what I have, you will not ask me this question.”
Youqin Xuanya was stunned.
She looked at Li Changshou who always had a gentle smile on his face and nodded.
She seemed to have understood something.
Although Li Changshou did not understand what she understood… he felt that she should have understood something…
Li Changshou felt that he had gradually grasped some tricks that he could use to deal with his Junior Sister Youqin.
Many disciples in the surroundings saw that scene, but they did not know what the three of them were mumbling about.
“Who is that fellow disciple?”
“Didn’t Junior Sister Ling’e’s senior brother fight the Qi Refinement cultivators of Golden Ao Island and the prince of the Dragon Palace before?”
“Oh… Wolf Fang Club! How could I have forgotten about him? My memory is bad.”
Li Changshou transmitted his voice, “Junior Sister Youqin, there’s no time to waste. The other party might find this place immediately.”
Youqin Xuanya nodded gently. She carried her sword and flew into the sky, looking at the chaotic crowd below.
Youqin Xuanya shouted, “Everyone, time is running out. Listen to me! I have a way to make strong enemies retreat.”
“The enemy has the demonic roc as a mode of transport and they’re after the earth meridians. It’s impossible to escape from this place after they find the earth meridians!”
The disciples below looked up.
Fortunately, Youqin Xuanya was stepping on a white cloud that no one could see through…

She took out a porcelain bottle and shouted, “Everyone, please take a look. This is a peerless poisonous pill bestowed by Elder Wan Linyun that can kill Heaven Immortals!”
“Later, I will attack together with my senior brothers and sisters. I will use this poisonous pill to set up an array formation. I will use this to see if I can seriously injure this enemy! Everyone, please return to your caves and wait near the earth meridians.”
“Elders, please listen to me! If Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters and I cannot succeed, all the elders will have to fight with their lives to protect the disciples!”
Youqin Xuanya’s words were full of emotions.
Even if Li Changshou had not arranged for the next battle plan, he would still be 99% certain that he could destroy the enemies because, during the battle at the mountain gate, he had already figured out the strength of the old Daoist who was in the Heaven Immortal realm.
Li Changshou himself was almost moved by Youqin Xuanya’s words…
At the same time, the one-tenth chance of losing was something that could not be erased as usual.
The Heavenly Dao was random.
He had to respect the Heavenly Dao!
The elders stood up immediately, wanting to use the poisonous pill in Youqin Xuanya’s place.
Elder Tian said, “Xuanya, a Heaven Immortal is not to be trifled with…”
“Elder!” Youqin Xuanya’s eyes seemed to be shining as she continued firmly, “Please trust me!”
“Well…”
“Xuanya, Elder Tian and I will stay here. You will also assist us here. What do you think?”
The other Perfected Immortal elder who was in charge of external affairs added, “Then, the two of us guard disciples will set up another array formation in the cave and use it as an ambush.”
Youqin Xuanya thought for a while and immediately agreed after hearing Li Changshou’s voice transmission.
The elders called out to the disciples who had just flown out of the ground, and they immediately flew towards the cave deep in the valley…
The disciples who had yet to become immortals were really in a sorry state.
In a corner, Ling’e muttered softly, “That works too?”
Li Changshou’s paper avatar stood with his hands behind his back and said, “Some people and some things cannot be understood using common sense.”
Ling’e seemed to be deep in thought. She looked up at her senior brother and asked softly, “What about you, Senior Brother?”
“Be more serious. There are still many troublesome matters to deal with next.”
Li Changshou transmitted his voice and retreated half a step to the side, avoiding the cave.
“Ling’e, you must follow me later. Don’t wander around.”
“Yes!”
Ling’e reached her slender hand out and carefully pulled the back of Li Changshou’s robe. Although she was in danger, she could not help but blush a little.
Li Changshou transmitted his voice calmly, “Let’s set three rules.”
“Hmph.” Ling’e took half a step to the side and remained standing with her hands behind her back as if she was not very familiar with Li Changshou.
At this moment, no one paid much attention to a pretty female disciple like her who didn’t have a high cultivation level.
Many disciples went to Youqin Xuanya and said that they wanted to stay behind to fight against the enemy.
However, Youqin Xuanya thought about Li Changshou’s previous warnings and continuously refused. In the end, she used the excuse that the disciples of the Little Qiong Peak were good at using the Earth Escape technique and left Li Changshou and Ling’e behind.
Not long after, the elders worked together and quickly set up a concealment array at the entrance of the cave.
At the same time, it prevented the people in the underground cave from investigating…
The powerful enemy might arrive at any time. At this moment, they should be searching along the earth meridians and wasting some time.
Or do they have other plans? I have to be wary of that.
Li Changshou pondered deeply. He glanced at Ling’e and continued to guide Youqin Xuanya secretly.
Since he had chosen to let Youqin Xuanya be a tool for once, he would use her to the greatest extent…
Later on, he would put in more effort to ensure that she did not expose all that.
The two Perfected Immortal elders who were in charge of external affairs brought their three disciples along with them as they flew out of the valley. They purposely revealed their auras on the side of the valley.
That was to attract the attention of powerful enemies…
At that moment, an elder turned to look at Li Changshou and Ling’e. He wanted to tell them to be careful, but he could only sigh softly.
“The two of you are good at using Earth Escape. If anything goes wrong, you should protect yourselves!”
Li Changshou and Ling’e looked at each other and nodded.
Soon, two trapping arrays and protective arrays were erected on the hillside.
The two elders who were Perfected Immortals grabbed the poisonous pill and checked it carefully.
It was indeed a pill refined by Elder Wan Linyun. When the two of them probed the poison pill, they felt their spiritual senses pulsating. They knew that it was an impressive item.
It was actually the incapacitating agent—Heart-bewitching Intoxication.
Hence, the two elders looked less worried and were more determined. There was hope…
While they were setting up the array, Li Changshou hid behind a huge rock with Ling’e. His mind was focused on the intense battle at the mountain gate.
…
The second time the burly paper effigy appeared, the effect was not ideal.
The Blood Mosquito puppets had already reacted. They did not immediately send people to chase after them. Instead, they attacked the Heaven-Breaking Peak with all their might.
After all, the previous batch of “fellow Daoists” had been silently destroyed on a mountain peak.
It was obvious that there was something fishy about that.
Most of the immortals from the Immortal Du Sect felt that that burly man must have gone through a bloody battle to be able to kill so many great demons. It was truly admirable.
The burly man continued to curse. However, the only responses he received were mystical abilities and Dharma treasures. He was unable to lure the enemy.
Forget it.
It would be a coincidence to lure too many enemies to the Little Qiong Peak once or twice but if it’s too frequent, it would be hard to explain…
The battle on the Immortal Du Sect’s main peak had already stabilized. The Blood Mosquito puppets have lost their spirit.
Although the Immortal Du Sect had been suppressed at this moment, the rate at which the casualties increased was extremely slow. The effects of Elder Wan Linyun, Exalted Wang Qing, and other experts had also become more prominent.
However, the situation was not entirely stable.
Now, he had to wait for the Golden Immortals above him to decide the winner. That was the most important part.
If one of the Sect Leaders of the Immortal Du Sect or Elder Qi Ling had lost before the experts from the Ren School arrived, the Immortal Du Sect would still lose…
How can I help a battle between Golden Immortals?
This thought popped up in Li Changshou’s mind. Then, he frowned and began to check himself.
Have I been too careless?
This is clearly beyond my current ability. It is not something that I have to do no matter what.
Could it be that I’ve been struck with something like a tribulation?
Otherwise, how could I have such ridiculous thoughts?
Li Changshou did not think too much about it. After sorting out his thoughts, he continued to follow his plan.
A moment later…
The Paper Effigy No. 3 beside Ling’e had already sensed the demonic aura of the demonic roc. Although the other party had taken a detour, he still successfully chased after her.
At that moment, Li Changshou immediately controlled the three paper effigies in the mountain gate. The burly man and his fellow disciples took the initiative to attack the Mosquito Puppet’s main array.
The three “people” quickly fell into a difficult situation and were unable to recover.
However, they were unyielding and had nothing to lose. In the end, they rushed to the place where the other demons were at, and instantly self-destructed!
The immortals from the Immortal Du Sect shouted, “Fellow Daoist, you can’t do that!” Many old immortals, who had been in seclusion all year round, looked up and sighed.
However…
Both parties felt that they had seen that scene before…
Li Changshou felt his heart ache as well.
After all, those three paper effigies were of the highest quality and standards he could achieve for now. They also cost the most amount of paper.
However, there was nothing he could do. The three paper effigies had already played their role and had been tainted by karma.
That was especially so for the burly man. When he scolded the demon race, he felt good. However, in the future, it would not be easy for him to deal with some big shots that were related to the demons, such as Daoist Lu Ya.
However, he was gone after the explosion.
That burly man was the one who scolded the Demon Emperor. What did it have to do with Li Changshou, the weak junior immortal of Little Qiong Peak?

Li Changshou secretly looked at the anti-depreciating objects on him and did not think about it further.
In fact, the demons had long retreated from the stage of the Primordial world. In order to deal with the witches, the Demon Emperor had slaughtered many humans and used the souls of humans to refine incredible treasures. When the human race was almost extinct, he formed a huge feud that would not cease until he died.
Fortunately, Saint Nuwa and the experts from the Dao Sect, who had long become enemies with the Demon Emperor, had protected the human bloodline.
As a human, it would not be considered rude for him to jump around the Demon Emperor’s grave, not to mention teasing him lightly.
That was indeed the case.
At the end of ancient times, after the third Great Magi-Demon War, the demons suffered great losses. The human race seized the opportunity to defeat the demon race. At that time, there was a human leader who ordered people to dance and play music in front of the fallen Demon Court for decades to celebrate.
The prosperity of the human race was not obtained just by paying respects to Heaven and Earth and the Three Sects.
It was obvious how difficult it was to achieve great things with just one sentence.
However, when people talked about the past, they would often say that the witches and demons were not counted as part of the heavens, thus highlighting the rise of the human race.
Li Changshou was deeply touched by that battle…
There was a mastermind who wanted to plot against the Immortal Du Sect and yet, so many Perfected Immortals and Heaven Immortals died…
(A disguise to avoid karma, and a trump card to sever karma. Both are of equal importance.)
In the future, he could not say that the problem was whether he was going to hide or not.
Instead…
How deep could he hide?
At this moment, the ‘Heaven’ Paper Effigy No. 2 was hiding under the Heaven-Breaking Peak.
The one with the ‘Heaven Break’ characters transformed into his master, Qi Yuan, and sat quietly in the Pill Chamber while secretly controlling Little Qiong Peak’s array formation.
Li Changshou focused most of his attention on Paper Effigy No. 3 which protected his junior and master. He was prepared to kill the Heaven Immortal old Daoist, who was going to attack him later and protect the “offspring” of the Immortal Du Sect.
There was no need for Li Changshou to attack, given the current battle situation around the Heaven-Breaking Peak.
It had not been long since the battle started, but Li Changshou knew that he had done enough.
Everything was better than nothing.
At that moment, most of the immortals from the Immortal Du Sect felt guilty and grateful towards the three paper effigies that were passionate about Dao and had self-destructed…
That was enough.
Of course, Li Changshou would not have expected that there was already a Grand Elder who wanted to set up a monument for the three paper effigies afterward. That was a rather absurd matter.
The Immortal Du Sect was 8,000 kilometers to the east. The Azure demonic roc flew through the air and circled in the air for a while. Two immortal senses were locked onto the few people below.
Li Changshou transmitted his voice to Ling’e, “Stay closer to me. You can use me as a shield.”
“Huh?”
Ling’e blinked and quickly hid behind “Li Changshou” who protected her completely.
Youqin Xuanya and the two elders who were in charge of external affairs were ready to attack at any moment.
Underground, Ling’e was rather puzzled. She asked softly while blushing, “Senior Brother, why are you…”
“Watch more. Talk less. Study hard.”
Ling’e immediately nodded and agreed. She was also a little nervous.
Several streams of light suddenly came crashing down from above. The two elders joined forces and activated the array formation around them, barely managing to receive the light.
Then, the demonic roc folded its wings and swooped down from the sky. It was extremely fast!
However, the figure on the demonic roc’s stopped in the air.
The Heaven Immortal, who was controlled by the Blood Mosquito’s mystical abilities, had a deep impression of the “toxic” Immortal Du Sect…
