I'm Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 381 - Certified Farmer Li Nianfan

Panda Novel

That place was like where Lord Pangu lived!

‘The mountain shall be known as…the best Saintly Mountain and the blessed sacred land from now on!’

Ziye thought to herself. Qin Manyun took a deep breath and stepped forward. She carefully raised her hand and knocked three times on the door.

“May I know if Mr. Li’s home?”

“Guests? I’ll go answer the door!”

Tap tap.

Creak.

Dragin opened the door. She had flour on her face—looking like a messy cutie. She looked at everyone outside and smiled. “Hey, it’s Sister Ziye. Please, come in.”

Ziye and Gu Xirou smiled at the same time. “Hello, Dragin.”

Then, they stepped into the four-part architecture. They saw the busy people in the yard. White flour was floating in the air. The floor was also covered in white flour. It looked like a mess.

Li Nianfan and the others were kneading dough. They added water to the flour and they had all sorts of stuff to knead the dough with on the table.

Xiao Bai had hands like a vacuum machine, chasing after loose flour and cleaning up the place.

Ziye and the others had imagined countless scenarios when they walked in the door, except for a scenario like that. When they saw the house full of flour, the corners of their mouths unconsciously twitched.

‘That’s not flour, that’s incomprehensible Luck!’

If cultivators, or even Immortals, were there to see all that flour, they would have lost control as if they had discovered some ultimate treasure. Then, they would do anything to gather it.

‘Are they playing with Luck? Luxurious, too luxurious!’

They looked at Daji and the others. They seemed alright. It seemed like they did not think it was wasteful.

‘Forget the expert. Since when were you girls so carelessly lavish, too?’

Huff!

Qin Manyun breathed fast. She noticed that some flour was floating in front of her. She silently turned her mouth into an ‘O’ to suck the flour in.

‘Suck it in as much as I can. Rich people don’t understand the desires of the poor. It’d be a shame to waste it!’

Li Nianfan saw the guests and instantly smiled. He said, “Yo, Lady Manyun’s also here. I haven’t seen you in a while.”

Qin Manyun hurriedly saluted and bowed, “Yeah. Greetings to Mr. Li.”

Gu Xirou and Ziye also hurriedly said, “Mr. Li, sorry to intrude.”

Li Nianfan smiled. “Ha, there’s nothing to intrude. It’s a bit messy at the moment. Sorry about that.”

“No…not at all.” Gu Xirou sounded a bit anguished.

‘You should feel sorry for us instead. We’ve never seen a messy house caused by excessive Luck. We truly learned something new this time.’

Li Nianfan said, “Sit, have a seat. Xiao Bai, turn off the vacuum machine mode. Hurry up and serve tea to the guests.”

“Yes, my noble Master.”

Xiao Bai immediately went off to make tea.

Ziye and the others looked to where Li Nianfan was standing. They looked at the dough on the table.

Their hearts raced on sight. They felt as if the dough was lively, or like it would come alive at any moment. However, the feeling disappeared when they looked closely. It still felt extraordinary.

There were puppets and all sorts of animals on the table. Li Nianfan and the others made them from kneading dough. However, it was easy to differentiate. After all, the dough kneaded by the others was too ugly. Not only were they ugly, they were tragic to look at compared to what Li Nianfan made. The difference was too obvious.

Ziye stared closely at a puppet kneaded by Li Nianfan. She could only detect a hint of powerful aura from it. It meant that her level was still too low. She was not worthy enough to understand the wisdom within it.

The dough must have contained some sort of wisdom, and it was far beyond Ziye’s comprehension. The Insights from his dough were way higher than the others. It was subtle and mysterious. It seemed like the expert was not trying to preach. It was more like…a creation!

‘Perhaps this dough is a kind of…super powerful Spiritual Treasure?’

Ziye guessed in her mind. Suddenly, Li Nianfan casually placed the puppet dough into the steamer. He steamed it…

Li Nianfan noticed that Ziye was dumbfounded while she was looking at the steamer. He had to laugh as he asked, “Goddess Ziye, what are you looking at? Do you like this puppet dough?”

Ziye snapped out of it. She hurriedly replied, “Mr. Li, that puppet dough’s well-made. I unconsciously had to look at it.”

Li Nianfan laughed. He shook his head and said, “Actually, it tastes better than it looks. Goddess Ziye, if you like it, I’ll give some to you later.”

Xiao Bai came over with a tray to serve them tea as well as a fruit platter. “Please, enjoy, guests.”

The three of them thanked it at the same time, “Thanks, Xiao Bai.”

They looked slightly ashamed. They were embarrassed to receive free food and drinks.

Daji took out her handkerchief and carefully wiped Li Nianfan’s hand. The two of them walked together and sat down.

Li Nianfan smiled and asked, “Is there any reason why you’re all here?”

Qin Manyun put her words together and said, “Mr. Li, I’m here to invite you to an end-of-the-year event hosted by cultivators.”

Li Nianfan had a realization. He asked, intrigued, “Ha, what a coincidence. I just heard someone talking about this today. Since when did cultivators start getting interested in end-of-the-year events?”

Qin Manyun saw that Li Nianfan had laughed. It seemed like he was not against it. She was immediately thrilled. She said, “Actually…We just did. It’s lonely being cultivators so we wanted to gather and create some events. It just so happens to be the end of the year, so we’re just doing it together.”

She paused, bit her lip, and said, “Apart from battles, we have dance performances. I will be performing with my zither, too.”

“You’ll be performing on stage, too?”

Li Nianfan looked at Qin Manyun weirdly. She was quite prestigious. It seemed like the event would be very formal if she was going to show up and perform.

Qin Manyun nodded. She asked excitedly, “Mr. Li, are you going to come? I practiced hard on ‘Ambush’ and ‘High Mountains and Flowing Water’.”

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Since Lady Manyun already said so, it makes no sense if I don’t go.”

Qin Manyun and Gu Xirou were overjoyed. They hurriedly said, “We’ll pick you up for the event, then.”

Li Nianfan laughed. He said smugly, “No need to do so. I don’t need to rely on the skyship anymore.”

Ziye silently sighed at the side. She felt lonely.

If the Seven Princesses were together, they could perform a set of dances for the expert. However, it was just her. She could not present the performance on her own.

She lightly flicked her wrist and out came two seeds in her hand. She spoke, “Mr. Li, I heard you were looking for special fruit trees to fill up your backyard. I found these two seeds by accident. How about you take a look?”

“Oh? Let me see.”

Li Nianfan was instantly interested. He took the seeds from Ziye and carefully observed them.

The two seeds were not that different in sizes. They were plump. However, one was smoother, the other one had deep patterns and small holes on it. They looked kind of dry. They appeared to have been out in the wild for quite some time.

Thankfully, the environment was nice at the Immortal Realm. There were Spiritual Qi everywhere. If the seeds were placed in the past realm, they would have dried out and died a long time ago.

“Good seeds. These are good seeds!”

Li Nianfan carefully touched them and smiled. “This one’s a Peach, and this one’s a Plum. Both are good seeds. Goddess Ziye, thank you so much.”

‘So the Flat Peach is called a Peach and the Yellow Plum’s called a Plum. I see.’

“You’re welcome, Mr. Li. I can’t plant this…Peach seed and this Plum seed anyway, so I may as well give it to you.”

“You gave it to the right person then. I’m a certified farmer after all. It’s not hard to plant these seeds!” Li Nianfan laughed. “Once I harvest the fruits, I’ll give them to you, Goddess Ziye.”

‘Planting Spiritual Herbs, Flat Peaches, and Yellow Plums. Is there anybody else in the world who could do something that cool?

‘Yet…you merely referred to yourself as a certified farmer?

‘The expert’s truly the expert. Even his cool act is beyond us.’

Ziye was excited but at the same time, she felt her emotions were being relentlessly attacked. She kept smiling. “Ha, thanks, Mr. Li.”

Li Nianfan put the seeds aside. He was planning to plant them later. He suddenly had a thought and asked curiously, “Oh, yeah. How’s the Heavenly Palace?”

Her face dropped at the mention of that. Ziye sighed and said, “No progress at all. But fortunately, I saw my Second Sister.”

“Your Second Sister?” Li Nianfan was slightly surprised. He thought to himself, ‘Her Second Sister would be the Second Princess?

‘Awesome. Why isn’t she here? It’d be great to meet more legendary characters.’

Ziye automatically answered his question. She said, “Yes, but she was confined. She can’t leave the Heavenly Palace yet.”

“I see.” Li Nianfan nodded. Then, he asked, “Can we go to the Heavenly Palace?”

Li Nianfan only asked casually but Ziye’s heart clenched hearing that. Her heart started beating frantically. She was excited and anxious. She was thinking a lot and could not control her breathing.

‘The expert’s starting to take an interest in the Heavenly Palace. If he went over, there might be a chance for everyone to wake up.’

Previously, Ziye did not dare to guess what Li Nianfan was thinking. Therefore, she never asked him to do anything. However, the expert himself brought up the Heavenly Palace. That was a different case.

Deep down, she knew that she could never think of a solution on her own. Even the Jade Emperor and Empress of the Heavenly Palace could not do anything. It was an unsolvable issue. The only hope lied with the expert.

However… Could she directly ask the expert for help? Obviously not. If she asked for help, she would not receive it. She would probably also be dead.

At that moment, Ziye wanted to cry. She did not know how it would end but it would be a huge blessing if the expert was at the Heavenly Palace. After all, there was a prior example—the Underworld. ‘Maybe the expert will rebuild the Heavenly Palace if he’s in a good mood?’

Her mind was running fast. She hurriedly calmed her overturned heart. However, her voice was still shaky. She said, slightly nervous, “Of course, you can. Mr. Li, if you want, I can bring you all there right now. The Heavenly Palace isn’t that different from the eldritch eras.”

Li Nianfan was thrilled. “Really? Can we go to the Heavenly Palace?”

Ziye almost begged him. She kept nodding, “Yes, you absolutely can.”

Li Nianfan looked at Daji. “Daji, how about it? How about we…have a stroll at the Heavenly Palace?”

Daji smiled and said, “I’ll follow you if you want to go.”

“We’ve been to the Underworld, so of course, we can’t miss out on the Heavenly Palace! We must go. We must go!”

Li Nianfan looked excited. He was thrilled.

That was the Heavenly Palace. In the past realm, the Heavenly Palace was an important place in every legendary story. It was also the holiest and most mysterious place. The story of ‘Havoc in the Heavenly Palace’ won the hearts of countless teens.

He was…about to visit the Heavenly Palace.
