My Senior Brother is Too Steady Chapter 677 - The First Conflict with Young Master Ao

Chapter 677: The First Conflict with Young Master Ao

In the living room in the front courtyard of the Li Residence, a few figures sat quietly. Their faces were filled with antic.i.p.ation.

A chuckle sounded from behind the hall. Li Jing and his wife arrived under the escort of a group of maidservants. Lady Yin, who had consumed the Spirit Pills that Li Changshou had given her, had already gotten off the bed and carried the sleeping infant over.

Li Jing followed closely behind, looking like he was afraid that his wife would suddenly faint.

The few big shots in the living room stood up to welcome him. Perfected Taiyi had his hands behind his back and was smiling. His eyes were about to fly out. He kept raising his eyebrows at Yu Ding and Li Changshou, as if he was saying…

“Look, my son. No, it’s the reincarnation of my disciple!”

Quan Dong, who was at the side, smiled and squinted. He took the initiative to walk forward and size up the future general of the Heavenly Courts. The more he looked at him, the more he liked him. He gave Li Changshou a look that only the two of them understood.

I have to take good care of this little fellow. Don’t be schemed against by the Western Sect. Protect him. I’ll explain to the Dao Ancestor.

Li Changshou nodded with a smile.

The main purpose of inviting the Jade Emperor to this place was on this level.

“Ahem.” Perfected Taiyi cleared his throat. “Why don’t I take in a disciple now…”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “Senior Brother, why are you so anxious? Are you afraid that someone will s.n.a.t.c.h your disciple? How is this little fellow serving tea?”

Quan Dong teased, “Tsk, I’m also a little excited.”

Perfected Taiyi glared at Li Changshou.

When had he, the Grand Yin-Yang master, ever suffered such grievances?!

At that moment, he pursed his lips and was about to retaliate. Before he could say anything, Perfected Yu Ding shook the Dharma artifact treasure ball in his hand.

Perfected Taiyi could only smile awkwardly and say, “I’m really afraid that I would lose a good disciple for no reason.”

Li Changshou shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Perfected Yu Ding, who was at the side, calmly changed the topic. “Li Jing, have you named your son?”

Li Jing hurriedly said, “Shuizha.”

“Um…”

Perfected Taiyi pondered carefully and pinched his fingers to deduce. He shook his head and said, “This disciple of mine is born with the Fire Fate. It’s not appropriate to call him Shuizha. Moreover, why do the names that you come up with always have to include the word ‘Zha’?”

Li Jing said, “His brothers’ names are Jinzha and Muzha. They are the voices of the Pangu G.o.d when he suppressed the evil in the world. They have the intention to eliminate the evil and protect the Dao. I can name him Huozha too.”

“It’s not appropriate to name him Huozha either. It’s a little awkward-sounding.”

Li Jing did not give up. “Tuzha?”

Perfected Taiyi said, “That’s worse.”

“Perfected One, this!” Li Jing frowned and looked at Perfected Taiyi. He whispered, “What do you think, Perfected One?”

“Yes, why don’t we call him Lingzha?”

“Isn’t that a little too delicate?” Li Jing did not know whether to laugh or cry. “There are thousands of names in the Primordial World. Half of them contain the word ‘Ling’. That’s too common.”

Ling’e, who was cultivating by the lake of the Little Qiong Peak, felt offended.

Quan Dong suddenly said, “Since you’re using the word ‘Zha’, why don’t you use the idea of suppressing evil? There was still a murderous aura in that child’s body that could not be dispersed. It originated from the Fiend Ancestor and was rather troublesome. Why not use that word as a companion? It also had the intention to suppress evil and exorcise demons. In the future, anyone who calls his name can help him suppress the murderous aura in his body. How about Nezha?”

Li Jing frowned and looked at Quan Dong. ‘Who is this? Is this a nice name? Nezha? What?’

“Alright!”

Li Changshou shouted softly and gave him a thumbs-up. He praised, “Marshal Quan Dong is indeed knowledgeable. Li Jing, aren’t you going to thank Marshal Quan Dong?”

Li Jing’s Adam’s apple trembled a few times. He said firmly, “Thank, thank you, Marshal!”

Quan Dong immediately squinted and chuckled. He continued to look at Little Nezha’s sleeping face and chuckled.

Lady Yin said gently, “May I ask you to give some blessings to my son?”

“I’ll go first.” Quan Dong cleared his throat and pondered seriously for a while. “Handsome, heroic, and shocking hero.”

Perfected Taiyi smiled and said, “This burden is a little too huge. I’ll give you a word of blessing. I wish you a healthy and happy life.”

Perfected Yu Ding thought for a long time before saying, “I wish you continuous advance.”

Hence, many gazes gathered on Li Changshou. Li Changshou stared at the sleeping Little Nezha and said softly, “Nezha is a disciple of the human race today. He has the physique of the human race and the soul of the human race. I hope that he can read more of the human Sage’s teachings in the future and understand the principles of life. Since he was born with mystical abilities, he should reflect on himself at all times and let himself walk on the right path. The world is full of vicissitudes, and the human Dao is eternal. I hope that you can shoulder the expectations of others and have a clear conscience.”

After saying that, Li Changshou took out a strange-looking bracelet from his sleeve. He tapped it gently with his fingers, and the bracelet was evened out. He put it on Nezha’s left wrist.

The bracelet was dark gold in color and had three small round dots. There were wisps of mysterious Dao runes on it. It was obvious that it was not an ordinary item.

Li Changshou explained, “This is a small item that I refined previously. There are three pearls inside. They have the effect of absorbing baneful aura at any time and also serve as a warning. If a pearl lights up, it represents that there is a murderous aura in Nezha’s body. If the two pearls light up, it means that Nezha is about to lose control of his murderous aura. If the three pearls light up at the same time…”

“What’s wrong?” Li Jing asked worriedly.

“Run.”

Li Changshou said in a low voice, “In order to resist the baneful aura, Nezha has already merged with the Dharma powers of his previous life. Over the years, I have been using the array formation to cleanse his baneful aura and give him endless spiritual energy. He was in his mother’s womb when he was not tainted. He was close to the Dao and playing with it. Although the Dharma powers in his body are in a silent state, as long as they erupt… Li Jing, you are definitely not his match. If the baneful aura goes berserk, we have to move the living beings around him away as soon as possible.”

Li Jing was speechless. Lady Yin frowned and hugged her child tightly.

Li Jing asked softly, “Will this child hurt the innocent?”

“It’s fine.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “I’m talking about the worst case scenario. I’ll take care of him from the side until he learns to control the baneful aura. Li Jing, do you remember the books I gave you?”

Li Jing was stunned and hurriedly nodded.

“It’s because of that,” Li Changshou said. “From now on, put aside half of your military matters. Go to the military camp in the morning and return home at noon. If you can’t even teach your son well, you’re not fit to be a parent.”

“Okay!”

Li Jing cupped his hands and bowed. “I, Li Jing, will remember your teachings!”

Quan Dong asked, “Can merit suppress the baneful aura?”

“Marshal, don’t worry.” Li Changshou looked at Nezha’s pretty face. “He was originally a rather gentle little immortal.”

Huh?

Perfected Taiyi could not help but worry again.

At the same time, on the eastern wall of Chentang Pa.s.s, a few figures stood there and looked at the situation in the Li Residence.

Xiong Lingli clicked her tongue and chuckled. “What do you mean by second-generation immortals? This is the legendary second-generation immortals, right? They are born with such prestige.”

Yang Jian smiled and said, “Junior Brother… Nezha.”

The Golden Roc placed his hands behind his back and looked like an expert. He said in an old tone, “Teacher has spent so much effort. He naturally has high hopes for Nezha. I hope that Nezha will not disappoint me and become an indomitable man sooner.”

Xiong Lingli said, “I feel that we can’t give the child too much hope. This is pressure… By the way, Perfected Lord Qingyuan!”

Clang!

Xiong Lingli threw the two bronze hammers on the city wall, causing cracks to appear. “Let’s fight! We still remember that you hit our ankles!”

Yang Jian smiled awkwardly. “It’s not what I want. I have the energy to fight demons.”

The Golden Roc said, “Why don’t we spar? I’ll give you ten times the amount of Dharma powers you spend to kill the demons.”

Yang Jian was speechless.

What happened?

Why do Uncle-Master Changgeng’s subordinates like to fight so much?

“Go outside the five continents?” Yang Jian’s eyes were filled with light as he looked at the Golden Roc.

The Golden Roc smiled and nodded. His figure flashed into the sky and disappeared with a whoosh.

“Outside the world.”

Yang Jian leaped up and transformed into the Golden Roc’s main body. The Eight-Nine Arcane Art circulated, and his body carried a golden line as he hurriedly chased after the Golden Roc.

“Ah!”

Xiong Lingli glared at the two of them as they left. Then, she sighed and silently felt disgusted.

Am I not strong enough? I have to pick my opponents when I fight!

Ugh!

The half-demoness with a pair of ponytails waved her fists in the direction that Yang Jian and Jin Pengfei had gone. Then, she rolled her eyes and carried her bronze hammer as she jumped off the city wall and ran towards the gathering place of the Heavenly Soldiers.

The next time I see you, I’ll step on your toes!

“Step on it first before getting bigger. Wahahahaha!”

…

The next day, everyone in Chentang Pa.s.s said that Li Jing’s third son was born and that he was beautiful, cute, with the bearing of an immortal.

The chef and carriage driver of the Li Residence, who were out shopping, praised the third young master. He was talented, intelligent, naive, and strong-willed. He could speak two hours after his birth, walk in four hours, and kick a shuttlec.o.c.k in six hours!

It was as if they had seen it with their own eyes.

Madam Li had been pregnant for nearly three and a half years. It was reasonable for there to be more phenomena after the birth of the spirit embryo.

Under the control of a disciple of Ren School who did not want to reveal his name, various phenomena appeared in Chentang Pa.s.s.

First, a group of soldiers ran over from the army camp and gave the soldiers more food. Then, there was a drizzle that healed many of the soldiers’ old injuries.

On the beam of the city tower of Chentang Pa.s.s, a huge ganoderma was formed. It was considered auspicious.

At sunset, a large amount of sunlight appeared in the forest to the west, as if it was a sign of good luck.

It was said that the Third Young Master of the Li family was a lucky star.

In just a few days, the Li Residence’s backyard began to get livelier.

Little Nezha fell asleep after being born. Then, he began his first exploration of the world in high spirits.

First, he was carried around the courtyard by Lady Yin. Little Nezha struggled gently a few times and pointed to the ground with his little finger. Soon, he was supported by Lady Yin. He tried to take two steps on the stone path barefooted.

Lady Yin was worried, but Little Nezha walked steadily in two to three steps. He even gestured for his mother to let go of him.

Lady Yin slowly let go. Little Nezha’s body swayed and his hands swayed left and right. He was hurriedly supported by Lady Yin.

After a few attempts, Little Nezha had already pa.s.sed the stage of staggering.

When Li Jing returned to the residence in the afternoon, he looked at the men in undergarments running around in the backyard. He could not help but frown.

He was extremely talented.

Li Changshou sat on the wall and watched that scene. He could not help but smile warmly.

Little Nezha was only stronger and more agile. His Dharma powers and mystical abilities were hidden in his body and did not appear. They were naturally his masterpiece.

Before Little Nezha reached the age of three, he had to use emotions or a specific spell to mobilize his Dharma powers.

When Nezha was three years old, Li Changshou’s immortal restriction technique would automatically disappear.

In the past three years, he had been educating Nezha and making him learn to control his emotions and killing intent.

Li Changshou had already made up his mind. Most of his attention was on that place. Apart from going to the Three-Immortal Island to explain about Fairy Heng’e later, he did not plan to move.

He was not in a hurry to give Nezha more time to interact with his family.

However, Perfected Taiyi, who was hiding in the dark, was a little impatient.

A month later, Perfected Taiyi appeared again. This time, he rode a cloud from the west. His body was surrounded by immortal light. He took off his red robe and changed into a green Daoist robe. He carried a horsetail whisk and looked much more dignified.

Before Perfected Taiyi arrived at Li Jing’s residence, he had already attracted the attention of many mortals. There were even immortals kneeling down to pray for blessings and ask immortals to give them pills.

Li Jing hurriedly went out. Little Nezha was carried by Lady Yin and looked around.

Perfected Taiyi scattered some immortal light and calmly floated into the residence. He raised his eyebrows at Little Nezha.

“Li Jing, I’ve come to accept your son as my disciple.”

Li Jing blinked. ‘When did he set a date? Why didn’t I know?’

The Perfected One was really too pa.s.sionate. He was so pa.s.sionate… Li Jing could not help but suspect that Perfected Taiyi was going to fight with him for the custody of Little Nezha.

“Perfected One, the child is only a month old.”

“Ah, one month is already old enough.” Perfected Taiyi pulled Li Jing’s arm and said in a low voice, “Let him become a disciple first and get a fixed name. Long delays will bring trouble.”

Li Jing felt helpless, but he could only agree.

Little Nezha sized up Perfected Taiyi for a long time and took the initiative to extend his hand, wanting Perfected Taiyi to hug him.

Perfected Taiyi was rather happy when he saw that. Just as he was about to move forward, Li Jing, who was beside him, beat him to it and said, “Madam, carry Nezha to wash up first. I’ll go to the living room with you to make some preparations.”

Lady Yinblinked and smiled gently. She carried Nezha and floated away.

Taiyi was speechless.

Li Jing made an inviting gesture and smiled. “Perfected One, please. Perfected One, please.”

Li Changshou, who was not far away, raised his eyebrows.

Why do I feel that the two of them are making each other jealous?

It should be an illusion.

After a while, Nezha became his disciple. Perfected Taiyi finally got what he wanted. He hugged Nezha for a while and chuckled smugly.

The Perfected One was also generous. He casually took out a bracelet and put it on Nezha. He even learned a word from Li Changshou.

“Small trinkets. The top-grade Connate numinous treasure, the Cosmic Ring. It can subdue and suppress demons. It can be big or small.”

Li Jing hurriedly said, “Perfected One, this treasure…”

Perfected Taiyi completely ignored him. He took another red silk cloth and wrapped it around Nezha’s arm. The silk slowly floated and gently rubbed Nezha’s small body.

“I have a little trinket, Heavenly Silk, which can be used to restrict powerful enemies or stir the universe. A top-grade Connate numinous treasure is not worth mentioning. It’s not worth mentioning. Let the child play with it!”

Li Jing was speechless.

Perfected Taiyi smiled calmly and looked at Li Jing smugly. Then, he took out one item after another from his sleeve.

“Nezha, do you like this Purple Gold Primordial Chaos Brick?”

“Come, come, come. This Yin Yang Sword is my masterpiece.”

“I’ve been refining a spear for you recently. I’ve already entrusted it to the Refinement Grandmaster, Yun Zhongzi. I’ve used almost more than ten Connate numinous treasures.”

Li Jing, Lady Yin and Li Changshou, who were watching from the side

A month pa.s.sed.

Little Nezha could speak simply. He could run and jump without injuring himself. He could also leave the residence. He liked to stroll around the streets and jump around everywhere. He was always followed by the Li Residence’s high-ranking servant, w.a.n.g Chang’an.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, a naughty child who liked to walk on eaves and walls and trample on stalls would naturally attract criticism. They would say that the child was naughty.

However, when Nezha stepped on the food stall, knocked over the fruits, and destroyed the roof tiles, a servant of the Li Residence threw out a huge sum of gold and silver. The scene changed drastically.

“Third Young Master, come and take a look!”

“Third Young Master is out again! Everyone, quickly leave the stall!”

“Third Young Master, who just came out of the furnace, loves candy the most! Third Young Master, who was pa.s.sing by, looked over!”

That action greatly boosted the commercial prosperity of Chentang Pa.s.s and stimulated the citizens’ impulse to do business. It could be considered a contribution to the increase in the production value of the Primordial World.

Actually, Li Changshou was just trying to stop the rumors from affecting Nezha’s mental state.

After all, she had just been born and was still a child.

On that day, Little Nezha skipped out of the city and saw the clear sky outside. The wind was gentle and the sun was beautiful. He ran barefoot in the hillside fields. His figure was carefree, and his laughter floated back and forth.

Li Changshou suddenly raised his eyebrows and hid.

Nezha jumped left and right. Soon, he felt a little tired. He sniffed and was attracted by a village that emitted the fragrance of vegetables. He kept his saliva and ran over.

“Huh?”

Little Nezha suddenly realized something. He curiously went to an open window and looked inside.

It was a hibiscus tent. A handsome young master with a delicate face and a slender figure was hugging a beautiful girl wearing a dress made of poor fabric. He was saying something in a gentle voice.

“Beauty, do you know that I developed feelings for you since the moment I saw you? I’m only willing to travel together with you and never separate again.”

“Young Master Ao…”

“Huh?”

There was a sudden sound from the window. The two people who were creating the atmosphere seemed to have been frightened. They hurriedly turned around and saw the pair of beautiful eyes by the window. They heaved a sigh of relief.

Young Master Ao said, “Beauty, is this… your son?”

“Young Master, don’t talk nonsense.” The woman hurriedly said, “I have yet to get married. How can I have such a big son?”

“Which family do you belong to, kid? Hurry up and leave!”

Little Nezha held the window with his left hand and pointed behind Young Master Ao with his right.

“Tail!”

Young Master Ao was shocked. He looked down and saw that his transformation technique had not been broken.

When he focused his gaze and saw that the child’s spiritual energy was oppressive, he could not help but have second thoughts.

Young Master Ao rolled his eyes and revealed a gentle smile. He took out a huge pearl from his sleeve and walked to the window under the woman’s amazed gaze.

“Little Brother, I’ll give you this. Can you play elsewhere?”

“Young Master Ao ~”

The woman called softly. Her heart was really about to melt into this gentle voice.

Crack!

A small hand slapped the pearl away mercilessly. Little Nezha shouted in a childish voice, “Long Worm!”

Long!

Young Master Ao widened his eyes and was enraged. He cursed, “Hey! Little child! Why are you scolding me!?!”

“Long Worm!”

“Continue scolding!”

“Long worm with green and white flowers. Hehe, hahaha!”

“Hey!”

Young Master Ao was enraged. He raised his hand and pointed at Nezha’s forehead. He immediately wanted to use a small spell to make the human brat suffer. However, just as he pointed out with his finger, Nezha’s hand left behind afterimages. He grabbed his finger and gently twisted it in the opposite direction.

Click.

It was broken.
