Chapter 205 A Change of Heart at the mere mention of it
“How could I be tired?” Tongtian looked Yuanshi up and down, then suddenly said something surprising: “Second brother, would you be willing to open your storehouse to me? I would be willing to generously open my storehouse to you.”
"Take whatever you want?" Yuanshi glanced casually at the Sun and Moon Essence Wheel at Chang Hao's waist. Thinking of the vast warehouse, he changed his mind about refusing: "If you want to use it on yourself, that's fine, but you have to apply first."
He couldn't let Chang Hao think he was inferior to Taiyi.
Tongtian instantly understood; was it impossible that he would help him raise a disciple?
It's true what they say, there's no harm in comparison. Taiyi just gave it away so much!!! And he gave Chang Hao so much!!!
Tongtian, clutching his wounded heart, gathered the several golden, glittering clumps on Huanglong's body to his own face; now, only they could comfort him.
“Reaching the Heavens is indeed a bit difficult,” Chang Hao said with sympathy for Duobao, who was far away in Kunlun. He hadn’t thought things through properly back then, and Duobao had avoided all the business areas that Lishan was involved in, making it even more difficult.
"Alright, Tongtian, don't be upset. What's a warehouse? I'll send Kunlun a few trading lines another day, that'll ensure a long-term future."
Chang Hao glanced guiltily at Yuanshi, "Don't you think so, Yuanshi?" Giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching him how to fish; he believed Yuanshi should have received the sincerity of his apology.
He really didn't lie to Yuanshi. Taiyi was just an accident, and Changhao was caught off guard when his identity was exposed.
Sensing that Chang Hao was subtly trying to curry favor with him, Yuan Shi's icy expression softened slightly. At least Chang Hao was willing to give him trading lines, so why didn't Chang Hao give Tai Yi trading lines?
Tongtian's eyes shone brightly. Overwhelmed with emotion, he gripped Chang Hao's hands tightly and said, "Chang Hao, you are like my own brother. You treat me much better than my second brother."
Look at him living in Lishan with his apprentices, all expenses are covered by Chang Hao. Where can you find a brother like that?
"Thanks is fine, but don't get physical." Yuanshi 'rescued' Chang Hao's hand, and his mood visibly improved.
However, at this critical juncture, Yuanshi will not mention Taiyi, as he is now terrified of even the mention of Taiyi.
"In a moment of excitement, I forgot that Chang Hao doesn't like it." Tongtian also knew Chang Hao a bit; Chang Hao was particularly averse to physical contact.
"It's alright. You are family to me. I only avoid strangers." Chang Hao breathed a sigh of relief. The matter of the Blood Sea should be settled now, right?
"You mentioned to me the other day that you wanted to build a chessboard. Take a look, is this what you wanted?" Yuanshi kept quiet about the Blood Sea. Now, Yuanshi avoided anything or anything that might remind Chang Hao of Taiyi.
Chang Hao was happy with this arrangement, knowing that Yuan Shi would eventually realize he was worrying unnecessarily.
Following Yuanshi's suggestion, Chang Hao looked at the black and white chess pieces on the stone table, as well as the chessboard with its intricate layout, and the golden light of merit that appeared and disappeared intermittently. "That's right, it's what I want."
"This small chessboard, with its intricate layout, contains the principles of Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and the Eight Trigrams, subtly alluding to the Way of Heaven. In your spare time, you can have your disciples learn it; it will be beneficial and harmless." Chang Hao recommended it to Yuanshi and Tongtian, "lest my disciples, being simple-minded, be no match for those who have struggled and fought their way through the primordial world."
It is emphasized that high cultivation level does not guarantee absolute safety.
"Since Chang Hao has said so, let them learn it. By the way, does Duobao know how?" Tongtian tossed the chess pieces up and down. "Learning this will make you smarter?"
Chang Hao smiled and said, "Duobao is very skilled. He won't necessarily become smarter, but he will definitely become cunning and unpredictable." He is commonly known as being shrewd.
But it's always better to be shrewd than naive. Chang Hao observed coldly that with the way Yuanshi and Tongtian raised their disciples, there would definitely be many naive people in the future who would be able to help others count their money even after being cheated.
Yuanshi was slightly moved. With a slight movement of his fingertips, he sent a message back to Kunlun: Guangchengzi is too stubborn, rigid and inflexible. He told Duobao to teach him the way of Go properly, hoping to see a completely new Guangchengzi in the future.
Chang Hao picked up a black chess piece and noticed that it had a pattern carved on it. "Why did you carve a 'ten' on it?"
"I thought you would like it." The aloof and noble Yuanshi showed a unique gentleness only to Chang Hao. The combination of his cold and solemn demeanor and his soft words was captivating.
Chang Hao was dumbfounded. Yuanshi had changed his strategy. It has to be said that the power of Yuanshi's use of softness to overcome hardness was enormous.
At least Chang Hao knew Yuan Shi's purpose, but he still softened and secretly squeezed Yuan Shi's hand through the wide sleeve.
Like a shot of adrenaline, Yuan Shi's eyes shone with joy. This was the first time Chang Hao had ever taken his hand, so he immediately reached out and gripped it tightly, refusing to let go.
Xiao Shi struggled for a moment and ran to hide in Chang Hao's sleeve. He had really had enough; Tong Tian had almost stroked his hair bald.
Chang Hao broke free from Yuanshi, put Xiao Shi back into his sleeve, frowned slightly, and looked at Yuanshi Tongtian again and again.
He's going to fight, so he definitely can't take his nine older brothers with him. But Xiao Shi can come along in case of emergency.
Did he entrust the Hongmeng Pearl to Yuanshi or Tongtian?
After thinking it over, Chang Hao decided to give the Hongmeng Pearl to Yaochi for the time being. He figured he shouldn't bother two people with the same thing, since Yaochi had already guessed it anyway.
"Senior brother, what is this?" Yaochi asked, holding the Hongmeng Pearl, at a loss.
"This is my senior brother's mission; I'm entrusting it to you for the time being," Chang Hao hinted.
Yaochi's lips trembled. This was a deadly level of trust.
Yaochi was restless. "Senior brother, how long do I have to take care of her?" He always needed to give her a definite answer. Ah, it was such a sweet burden.
For the sake of her senior brother's weighty trust, Yaochi gripped the Hongmeng Pearl and was determined to fight. Unless she died, no one could harm the Golden Crow that her senior brother had entrusted to her.
"I can't say for sure. Maybe I'll come to you to get it tomorrow, or maybe it will take a long, long time." Chang Hao himself was also worried.
"What..." Yaochi was shocked. "Senior brother, you must guarantee that you will be safe and sound."
Yaochi sized up her senior brother. He wore a black lotus crown, the first garment in the world made with the Three Lights Divine Water, the Cangmin Sword at his waist, the Sun and Moon Essence Wheel pressing down on the hem of his robe, and three miniature flags hanging from his waist... etc. He was fully armed. Was he going to fight or looking for someone to fight to the death?
"I guarantee that with your senior brother's cultivation level, unless a saint intervenes, he will be absolutely safe and sound." Chang Hao himself also believed this.
"This is the innate spiritual treasure that your senior brother promised to give you, the Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner. You must use it well." Chang Hao looked at Yaochi with satisfaction. This was a Great Luo Golden Immortal whom he had personally taught.
"Senior brother, you really gave it to me?" Yaochi asked in disbelief. The Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner was of high rank and was quite famous.
Yaochi hesitated for a moment, looked at Chang Hao's full armor, closed her eyes and stuffed the Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag into Chang Hao's hand again, "Senior brother, you keep it, and give it to me when you come back."
