Chapter 624 Immortal Nephew, Please Wait
"But Master Guangchengzi has already spoken."
"As a junior, it wouldn't be right for me to ask the chief disciple of the Chan Sect to take back what he just said, would it?"
This sentence, neither too light nor too heavy, was understood by Master Yuding.
Chen Changsheng, that kid, never really intended to leave.
He's waiting for Guang Chengzi to come and invite him in person!
Unfortunately, Guang Chengzi really had to back down on this matter.
Master Yu Ding sighed inwardly.
Senior brother, why did you provoke him?
This guy can always find a reason to justify something that isn't true.
Now that he has a handle on me, things won't be over without me spitting some blood.
"Senior Brother!"
Master Yu Ding turned around and quickly walked up to Guang Chengzi.
Guang Chengzi still did not realize the seriousness of the problem.
"Junior Brother Yu Ding, why are you losing your composure like this because of Chen Changsheng?"
Master Yu Ding took a deep breath and spoke directly.
"Senior Brother, he didn't come to Yuxu Palace to cause trouble."
"He was sent by the Jade Emperor to deliver the God-Slaying Whip to our master!"
Guang Chengzi's body suddenly stiffened.
"What?"
Master Yu Ding stared at him and added, word by word.
"The God-Slaying Whip is in his hands."
"And you just drove him away."
Guang Chengzi's mind went blank for a moment.
The God-Slaying Whip?
Chen Changsheng came to deliver the God-Slaying Whip?
How is that possible!
A few days ago, Master personally went to the Heavenly Court to borrow this treasure from Haotian.
Not only did Haotian refuse, but in front of all the immortals of the Heavenly Court, he also made it clear that he would rather turn against them than hand over the treasure.
After returning to Kunlun Mountain, Master was in an extremely bad mood.
As the chief disciple of the Chan Sect, Guang Chengzi naturally received no shortage of reprimands.
The Primordial Celestial Venerable believed that the conferment of titles on the gods should have been prepared long ago.
Guang Chengzi had not paid attention to the ownership of the God-Slaying Whip until Jiang Ziya was about to descend the mountain, at which point he discovered that the most important power was still in the hands of the Heavenly Court.
These past few days, Guang Chengzi has been unable to concentrate on his cultivation.
He kept thinking about how he could make amends.
Should I personally go to the Heavenly Court to plead with Haotian?
No.
Even the master couldn't borrow it, so it would be even more useless for him to go.
Seek a new decree from the Taoist patriarch?
Less likely.
The Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip have already been bestowed; whoever fails to safeguard them properly will have to find their own way to protect them.
Guang Chengzi even prepared for the worst.
If they really can't get the God-Slaying Whip, they can only let Jiang Ziya take the Investiture of the Gods down the mountain first, and then look for an opportunity later.
Who would have thought that Haotian would actually deliver the items on his own initiative!
What's worse, the person responsible for delivering the treasure had just been kicked out of Jade Void Palace by him.
"Junior Brother Yu Ding, explain yourself clearly."
Guang Chengzi grabbed Yu Ding Zhenren's sleeve.
"Did he really come to deliver the God-Slaying Whip?"
Master Yu Ding glanced at the sleeve that had been grabbed.
"Senior Brother, how could I joke about such a momentous matter?"
"The God-Slaying Whip was just in Chen Changsheng's hands."
"Yang Jian saw it with his own eyes, and I have also confirmed it."
Guang Chengzi's heart skipped a beat.
He immediately turned to look at Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng had already bypassed Yang Jian and continued walking towards the outside of Kunlun Mountain.
They weren't moving fast, but they never stopped.
Guang Chengzi hurriedly asked, "Then why didn't you say so sooner?"
Master Yu Ding almost laughed out of anger at those words.
"Senior Brother, I was just about to explain."
"But you didn't let me finish speaking."
"You also said that this is not a place Chen Changsheng should set foot in, and told him to leave immediately."
Guang Chengzi's face suddenly felt hot.
He did indeed say that.
Not only did he say that, he also added, "Take care and don't come back."
If we try to bring them back now, wouldn't that be like slapping ourselves in the face?
But if we don't invite them, Chen Changsheng will really take the God-Slaying Whip back to the Heavenly Court!
When Guang Chengzi thought of the scene when Yuanshi Tianzun was angry, his heart skipped a beat.
If Master knew that the God-Slaying Whip had been delivered to the gate of Jade Void Palace but was driven away by his first disciple, do you even need to think about the consequences?
Last time it was just a matter of poor performance.
This time, the grand plan of bestowing the title of gods has been ruined!
Getting a scolding is the least of your worries.
They might even be punished by being sent to Qilin Cliff to face the wall in solitary contemplation, and they won't be able to come out until the Investiture of the Gods ends.
The great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods is about to begin.
As the chief disciple of the Chan Sect, how could he be imprisoned at this critical juncture?
"Yang Jian!"
Guang Chengzi hurriedly shouted.
"Stop him! Don't let him get away!"
Yang Jian glanced back, his feelings quite complicated.
It was Guang Chengzi who just asked Chen Changsheng to leave.
The one preventing Chen Changsheng from leaving is still Guang Chengzi.
This is changing way too fast.
"Senior Uncle, I have already stopped them."
"But Changsheng said that you personally told him to leave, and he cannot disobey the wishes of the chief disciple of the Chan Sect."
Guang Chengzi understood.
Chen Changsheng was waiting for him to go there in person.
"Senior Brother, the God-Slaying Whip is related to the grand plan of the Investiture of the Gods."
Master Yu Ding whispered a reminder.
"If this treasure returns to the Heavenly Court, retrieving it will not be so easy."
"Haotian was never willing to lend the treasure in the first place."
"The fact that they were willing to send it this time, regardless of their ulterior motives, means that at least the goods have reached Kunlun Mountain."
"The most important thing is to keep Chen Changsheng here first."
Guang Chengzi's expression changed several times.
It would be a disgrace for him, the chief disciple of the Chan Sect, to apologize to a junior member of the Jie Sect.
But when it comes to face, the God-Slaying Whip is clearly more important.
Moreover, if he messes this up, he will lose more than just face.
Guang Chengzi gritted his teeth.
"That's enough."
"For the sake of the grand plan of the Chan Sect to confer gods, this humble Taoist will not hold it against him."
Master Yu Ding's eyelids twitched upon hearing this.
Even at this point, does the eldest brother still think he's not holding a grudge against Chen Changsheng?
Be careful not to say anything wrong later.
Otherwise, no one could stop Chen Changsheng from leaving.
Guang Chengzi straightened his purple robe with the eight trigrams and strode after him.
At first, he maintained the composure of the chief disciple of the Chan sect.
But Chen Changsheng was already almost out of the white jade square in front of the Jade Void Palace.
Guang Chengzi's pace quickened involuntarily.
"Nephew Changsheng, please wait."
Chen Changsheng did not turn around.
He felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the words "Please stay."
What's going on today?
They first encountered Shen Gongbao on the way and heard him say, "Fellow Daoist, please wait."
Now that they had arrived at Yuxu Palace, Guangchengzi said again, "Nephew, please wait."
Those who didn't know better might think these four characters were a secret code for the Chan Sect to meet.
"Is there anything else you need, Uncle-Master Guangchengzi?"
Chen Changsheng asked as he walked.
"This junior is ready to leave Kunlun Mountain."
"No orders were given, no orders were given."
Guang Chengzi rushed forward and blocked Chen Changsheng's path.
That arrogance from before has been put away.
He forced a gentle smile.
"Nephew, you've misunderstood."
"I didn't know you came on the orders of the Heavenly Emperor. I thought you were just visiting Yang Jian."
Now that we know why you've come, we certainly can't let you leave.
