Chapter 369 Divine Beads Against Divine Light, Gong Ming Meets Kong Xuan
It was rare for Li Changshou to invite him. Zhao Gongming did not reject him at all. He brought Li Changshou’s incarnation and called his third sister. He carried twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls and headed straight for the South Ocean! A moment later, they quietly arrived at the place where the scam had happened. Qiong Xiao took out a bag of green quicksand and immediately began to track them.
Zhao Gongming, who had already changed into his armor, stroked his beard and smiled. “What’s going on? Did the sun rise in the west? Brother, you are actually so decisive at times.”
“Always opt for the lesser of two evils. This time, I’m just giving it a try.” Li Changshou said seriously, “If we can catch up to him, it’s fine if we can’t get rid of him. We can get rid of his green-furred dog!” Zhao Gongming pondered for a while and quickly understood. “So you’re afraid of the power of that divine beast.” Qiong Xiao scoffed and said, “He’s just a divine beast that can listen to the thoughts of living beings. Wouldn’t it be fine if he used some small Dharma spells to conceal his essence soul?” Li Changshou said, “Fairy, if we don’t hide ourselves now, the fish around the island and the fairies in the sea will see our tracks. Wouldn’t our whereabouts be exposed to Truth Listener?”
Qiong Xiao blinked. “That makes sense… This way.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the dancing quicksand in front of her turned into a green cloud that headed towards the depths of the South Ocean. Zhao Gongming thought for a while and said, “Third Sister, bring Changgeng’s incarnation over from behind. I’ll go and meet him first!” After saying that, a blue immortal light flashed around Zhao Gongming. His figure turned into a gust of wind and disappeared… Qiong Xiao pursed her lips and looked at Li Changshou quietly. She snorted and said, “Big Brother is so concerned about what you said. He even used his natural mystical ability, which he has not revealed for many years.” Li Changshou smiled and nodded. His eyes were filled with emotions.
Qiong Xiao pointed casually and a golden rope wrapped around Li Changshou’s arm. She rode a cloud and chased after him, but she did not invite Li Changshou to travel with her on the cloud. Sensing that the two of them were a little awkward, Li Changshou took the initiative to ask, “How have you been?” “Alright, I’m in seclusion,” Qiong Xiao replied casually. Then, she turned to Li Changshou, who was behind her. “You… forget it.” “Fairy, just speak your mind.”
Qiong Xiao snorted. “Do you know what kind of wine my sister likes? Do you know what type of dresses she likes? Look at how you’re running around for the Heavenly Courts all day, as if you don’t care about my sister’s matters at all. Could it be that you’re only going to visit our Three-Immortal Island after my sister invites you? You actually did not take the initiative to help a beautiful and gentle Connate expert like my sister. Do you really think that you are the only one who can help my sister transcend the Love Tribulation?”
“This…”
Li Changshou was at a loss for words. Just as he was about to explain that he and Fairy Yun Xiao had yet to reach the Passion realm, the sky in front of them suddenly darkened. The universe trembled and the Great Dao surged! “Big Brother fought with someone!”
Qiong Xiao’s eyes lit up. “Let’s go quickly. If we go late, there will be no chance to fight!”
After saying that, Qiong Xiao immediately grabbed Li Changshou and sped up. However, she recalled that Li Changshou’s incarnation was not strong enough. She said, “You fly over slowly. I’ll help with the battle.” Then, she turned into a ball of golden light and sped forward. After a while, dragon roars sounded. Two golden flood dragons flew up and down. Twenty-four stars hung at the border of the South Ocean, sealing a large area of the universe! Is Ksitigarbha that powerful? He can actually make Master Zhao use his full strength! Just as Li Changshou was about to ask the Great Daoist Master to help, five rays of light suddenly rushed out from the sky, wanting to break through the seal of the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl.
The rays of divine light were black, white, green, yellow, and red in color. They intertwined and condensed into a huge hand that covered the sky, as if it was going to tear the blue sky apart! Five-colored Divine Light?!
Li Changshou could not help but stare. Why is Master Zhao fighting with Sister Xuan, ahem, Kong Xuan?! The two golden flood dragons roared and crashed into the Five-colored Divine Light, scattering the huge hand. The twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls flickered continuously and changed directions in the sky. They forcefully suppressed the Divine Light that was about to cause waves!
This…
Zhao Gongming, Qiong Xiao, the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl, and the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors joined forces to fight against Kong Xuan’s Five-colored Divine Light?
He had never seen such a scene.
Li Changshou immediately rushed forward and used the Wind Escape technique. He rushed to the battleground tens of thousands of kilometers away.
No matter how fast his escape technique was, he would still need a short period of time.
Taking advantage of this opening, Zhao Gongming and his sister had already exchanged a few blows with Kong Xuan! The Sea-Calming Divine Pearl activated its power and temporarily suppressed the Five-colored Divine Light, preventing the Divine Light from brushing the Divine Pearl. Zhao Gongming held a golden wooden whip and Kong Xuan held a long saber. The two figures kept fighting on the surface of the sea, leaving behind traces. The intense battle caused huge waves!
Fortunately, Zhao Gongming’s Sea-Calming Divine Pearl had the ability to suppress the universe. Otherwise, the universe would have been shattered!
Qiong Xiao held her sword fingers together and controlled the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors to avoid the Five-colored Divine Light. When the Five-colored Divine Light was about to close, she immediately made the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors reveal the Golden Flood Dragon. She turned her head and scattered the Divine Light.
Even though he was fighting one against two, Kong Xuan did not seem to be defeated. He even used the Five-colored Divine Light to restrain Zhao Gongming’s Sea-Calming Divine Pearl and forced Qiong Xiao to not dare to enter… Li Changshou appeared beside Qiong Xiao and immediately shouted, “Brother! Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan! Please stop!” However, his voice, which was enhanced with immortal power, was torn apart by the spiritual energy in the battleground… “Don’t be afraid.” Qiong Xiao smiled and said, “Brother can handle it.” Li Changshou thought of something and shouted into the sky, “Senior Brother! Why are you here!?!” Just as he finished speaking, he saw the Five-colored Divine Light flash rapidly. It wrapped around Kong Xuan and flew into the distance. It left the Sea-Calming Divine Pearl’s envelopment and stood 500 kilometers away. “Brother! Brother!” Li Changshou hurriedly rushed forward. Zhao Gongming, who was about to chase after him, stopped him and released his aura. A thousand kilometers away, Kong Xuan, who was dressed in a green robe, frowned slightly. He looked up at the sky and stared at Li Changshou. He snorted coldly and rode a cloud over. Li Changshou pulled Zhao Gongming’s arm and asked, “Brother, do you have an old feud with Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan?” “What old feud? I just saw him?”
Zhao Gongming was so angry that he blew his beard. “I tracked down the whereabouts of the Earth Treasury and found an island. When I saw him standing above the Immortal Island, I wanted to ask if he had seen it before. I was amiable. I went up and even called him Fellow Daoist. Who knew that he would glare at me and scold me? He asked which part of him seemed like he was a male. I thought about it and realized… Ah, did I see wrongly? If I see something wrongly, I’ll admit it. Hence, I just changed the way I addressed him and called him Fairy. I even apologized. However, he glared at me and scolded me again. He asked me which part of him looked like a fairy! I asked him if he was male or female and after that, he wanted to beat me up!”
“Pfft… Hahahaha!”
Qiong Xiao could not help but laugh out loud. She almost collapsed on the cloud.
At that moment, Kong Xuan had already flown back. He said coldly, “So what if I hit you? If not for the fact that you are a disciple of the Saint and a legendary figure of Jie School, I would definitely pluck out your beard today!” “Hey, hey!”
Zhao Gongming widened his eyes. The twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls circled around him. “Fellow Daoist, you’re going overboard. I’m afraid we have to fight again today!”
“You two!”
Li Changshou felt a headache coming on.
At that moment, Kong Xuan was considered a neutral party between the Dao Sect and the Western Sect. Even if he could not be roped in, they should not offend him.
To be safe, Li Changshou sent a voice transmission to Zhao Gongming to comfort him. He turned around and bowed to Kong Xuan with a Dao salute.
“Fellow Daoist, it was just a small misunderstanding just now. Fellow Daoist, you are heroic, beautiful, and have a perfected Connate Dao Body. You should not be seen as ordinary. My elder brother admitted his mistake. Fellow Daoist, you took the initiative to attack. Why don’t we let this matter go?”
Kong Xuan’s expression turned gloomy at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. He nodded slightly and said, “I was indeed rude to attack rashly just now. I hereby apologize.” Zhao Gongming walked out from behind Li Changshou and smiled. “I was careless and had offended you. However, Fellow Daoist, your Five-Element mystical abilities are really eye-catching. If there’s a chance, let’s spar again!” Kong Xuan’s narrow phoenix-like eyes were filled with light. The two Dao runes and auras gently collided in the air. “Why don’t we…” “Another day! Another day!” Li Changshou hurriedly said.
Kong Xuan pursed his lips and said, “Who are you asking about?” Li Changshou replied, “We’re chasing a group of enemies. It’s a young Daoist who’s riding a green-furred spiritual beast.”
Kong Xuan pinched his fingers and deduced. Soon, he gave an answer.
“They had previously passed by the array outside my island and headed towards the South Pillar. They have long left the five continents.” Li Changshou sighed in disappointment. Kong Xuan smiled and said, “Why don’t I chase after them for you? Perhaps we can find their tracks.” “It’s fine. I’ll let him go this time.” Li Changshou bowed and said, “Thank you for your kind intentions, Fellow Daoist.”
Kong Xuan continued, “In that case, why don’t you go to my island and have a seat?”
Li Changshou asked Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao with a hinting glance in his eyes. They nodded and let Li Changshou make the decision.
Li Changshou also felt that it was better to form good relations with an expert like Kong Xuan than to become enemies with him.
Moreover, this concerned the marriage of the Great Daoist Master. He was considered an expert in Ren School. As the Little Daoist Master of Ren School, he had to help the Great Daoist Master if he could. How could he see the Great Daoist Master die alone and depressed in Xuandu City?
He cared about the first old Pure Yang of the Primordial World!
As long as everyone offered a little love, the Three Realms would have a beautiful tomorrow!
Li Changshou smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan, let me introduce you. These two are the few experts of the Dao Sect.”
Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao looked at each other. The two of them stepped forward but were blocked by Li Changshou. “I’m Zhao Gongming, Changgeng’s brother-in-law.” “Qiong Xiao of the Three-Immortal Island, and I’m his sister-in-law!” Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
He and Fairy Yun Xiao had yet to…
No, what are you two worried about?! Kong Xuan snorted when he saw that. “I’m so friendly to him because he’s the Great Daoist Master’s junior brother. I owe the Great Daoist Master many favors. Hmph, follow me.” Then, he flicked his sleeve and turned around to lead the way.
Kong Xuan’s residence was rather hidden.
The entire island was hidden by the array formation. No one could detect the traces of the island with their naked eyes or immortal senses. The decorations on the island were rather elegant. The clear stream circled around the bamboo buildings and the mountain rocks surrounded the forest.
The young girl who had been saved by Kong Xuan previously had already recovered from the “mental explosion”. She was dressed in a colorful dress and had a pretty face. She was serving tea and water, completely unlike a human-eating peacock bird. Perhaps because he had just modified the Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou subconsciously began to search everywhere. He captured some very detailed arrangements on the island and carefully investigated them. He felt that it was very beneficial…
After sitting down, there was no small talk. Kong Xuan only asked about the Great Daoist Master.
Zhao Gongming and Qiong Xiao looked at each other. The siblings had roughly understood something. They were in awe of that man…
Li Changshou answered them in detail and diverted the topic without leaving a trace…
Li Changshou asked, “Fellow Daoist, why did you go outside the array formation and run into my brother?”
“I was a little troubled just now. I seemed to have felt that some opportunities had arrived.”
Kong Xuan sighed softly and looked at the bamboo forest outside the door. He played with the jade cup in his hand and said, “However, I met Fellow Daoist Zhao when I just went out.”
“Opportunity?” Zhao Gongming was puzzled. “What kind of opportunity? Is it the treasure I have here? If you do, please tell me. Since you are my brother’s good friend, you are naturally also my good friend! I will not be stingy!” “I don’t know the details. It’s not a treasure.” Kong Xuan pinched his fingers and deduced. He sighed and said, “The opportunity that I mentioned has nothing to do with me. It’s an opportunity for my race. Fellow Daoists, do you know my Phoenix Clan?” Li Changshou nodded slowly. Zhao Gongming also nodded. Qiong Xiao pointed at Li Changshou and chuckled. “If you say that it’s about the Phoenix Clan, the word ‘opportunity’ might be on him.” “Huh?” Li Changshou was puzzled. “Fairy, why do you say that?”
What opportunities could he have for the Phoenix Clan?
The dragon and phoenix were mortal enemies. He was already on the dragon race’s side. The phoenix race probably did not trust him, right? Qiong Xiao rolled her eyes. “Don’t you know your own identity?”
Kong Xuan’s eyes were filled with curiosity…
Zhao Gongming stroked his beard and sighed. “Fellow Daoist Kong Xuan, my brother has a huge reputation and a long identity description. Listen up! The person sitting in front of you is an Immortal God of the Heavenly Courts, whom the Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Courts trusts the most. He is in charge of the water affairs of the Three Realms. He is also the disciple of the Saint whom the Ren School has yet to make public. He is in charge of handling the matters of Ren School. He can come and go as he wishes in the Lingxiao Treasure Hall and the Tushita Palace.”
“Mhm!”
Qiong Xiao cleared her throat and continued, “He is also the rising strategist of the Heavenly Courts. He single-handedly facilitated the dragon race’s ascension to the Heavenly Courts. With a raise of his hand, he destroyed hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers of the demon race. With a flick of his finger, he resolved the life-and-death crisis of the Magi. He is the advisor of love that everyone in the Dao Sect recognizes! Of course, most importantly, he is my sister’s Dao companion-to-be. Ah-“
As the siblings explained, Kong Xuan’s eyes lit up. When he looked at Li Changshou, who was a little embarrassed, he felt a little eager. “Then, Fellow Daoist, can you help my Phoenix Clan?”
“Fellow Daoist, don’t listen to the praises they’re singing about me. I don’t have so many abilities. It’s just that the Heavenly Courts are ordinary…”
“Help him.” He was caught off guard. The faint Dao runes of the Grand Pure One circulated around him. It was undoubtedly the Grand Pure One!
“… Immortal God.”
Li Changshou cleared his throat and said seriously to Kong Xuan , “However, with my relationship with the Great Daoist Master, I will definitely consider carefully and help you wholeheartedly if you have a request.”
