Chapter 267: The Expert Is Making a Point!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It did not take long before another batch of casts went into the fighting rings.

They all had a solemn look on, their hearts pounding heavily.

An Immortal was watching them fight. What kind of privilege was that? If they were chosen, would they be able to Immortalize right away?

Since the Immortal was now observing them, they had to give 120 percent worth of effort to present themselves!

Instantly, the fighting level in the rings had gone up! One strike from here, another from there, very exciting!

Many disciples gave their best. They kept casting different spells, making sparkles all over with all kinds of effects.

Furthermore, other than the special effects, 80 percent of the fighters in the rings were handsome and beautiful people. The men were all handsome while the women were very beautiful and cold. They had elegant movements and postures. It was a lovely sight to watch.

Even the movies in his previous realm were not as good. There were too many good-looking actors involved, the costs would have gone too high!

This really satisfied Li Nianfan. He also sighed in awe. Cultivating would indeed make one seem more attractive. Beautiful women were everywhere.

However, Li Nianfan knew nothing about cultivating. By observation, the level of these disciples was not too high. They were way too far off from the disciples of the Azure Ville in comparison.

In one of the rings, there were two cultivators—one throwing a fireball, the other throwing a water ball. They were fighting as if they were playing, it was quite funny.

The crowd naturally looked over at what Li Nianfan was watching. They saw this weird duo. Longevous Qingfeng’s face darkened. Instantly, he asked his staff to come over and scoffed in a low voice, “What’re you doing? How did you arrange such a show? Throwing balls? Get them out!”

By the side, Dragin took a bit of the food and decided to put down her chopsticks. She looked at Li Nianfan with a pitiable look and said, “Brother, may I please eat a fruit?”

She was already picky. Now that she followed Li Nianfan around and had grown used to eating good food, naturally, she had become even pickier.

“No problem. However, you still have to eat the rice!” Li Nianfan smiled and handed an orange to Dragin.

Woof! Woof! Woof!

Below him, Blackie pulled on his pants.

Li Nianfan helplessly took out an apple and put it in Blackie’s mouth. “I’ve spoiled you all! Alright, you get one!”

Bite!

Blackie easily bit on the apple. It was chewing, making a munching and crispy sound. Meanwhile, the thick apple juice flowed down its throat.

Yao Mengji and the rest were in some mental endurance practice. However, Longevous Qingfeng was completely dumbfounded. He looked at the orange in Dragin’s hand and the apple that was being eaten by Blackie. He could not help gulping.

This Spiritual Fruit was…was…was given out so easily? Also, he fed it to a dog?

‘What a waste! What right does a poor man like me have to live on!’

His brains were buzzing, his heart shaking. He wanted to grab the apple from Blackie’s mouth.

He looked at the apple juice dripping onto the ground. If it was not for the last trace of rationality in him, he would have bent down and licked it clean.

Swiftly after, his eyes narrowed as he looked at the orange skin that was being peeled off by Dragin. His eyes sparkled.

He hesitated for a moment and finally took a deep breath. With a very nervous, calm, and friendly tone, he said, “Miss, you don’t have a place to throw away the peel, right? Why don’t I help you to toss them away.”

Dragin simply handed the peel over. “Here, thanks!”

“You’re welcome, you’re welcome!” Longevous Qingfeng’s voice was trembling. He carefully received the peel and left his seat. He found a corner and carefully kept the skin close to him. He was going to bring it home to taste it carefully.

What a gain! What a handsome gain!

He went back to his seat. The crowd had already started to discuss the fighting happening in the ring.

To them, there was nothing interesting to watch. They were merely a bunch of ants messing around. However, seeing that Li Nianfan was so excited, they had to play along.

Not only did they have to play along, but they also had to impress him as well. Instantly, they took on the role of explaining the moves to him.

The Holy Emperor saw that Li Nianfan was looking at one of the rings. He said instantly, “Mr. Li, the sword in the hand of that man is a middle-ranged treasure. It can cut through metal as if it were soil. It can also absorb spells, increasing its sharpness. His opponent also has a middle-ranged treasure. The sound of his bell messes up one’s Spiritual Qi.”

Li Nianfan could not help asking curiously, “How do you make a treasure?”

That was more powerful than his knife. If only he could have one in his hand, how cool would it be!

The Holy Emperor answered, “They’re made using special body parts or with the core of dead demons, in addition to top-graded natural treasures.”

Li Nianfan nodded. As expected, it was not easy to make!

He looked away and his eyes landed on another fighting ring.

The surrounding crowd of this fighting ring was bigger. It was not due to the interesting fighting. In fact, the two cultivators fighting were of lower rankings. However, they were beautiful.

The two fighting cultivators were beautiful women. One was using water while the other was using fire. Although they were not too high ranking, at least they did not toss water and fireballs around. They were striking back and forth, their dress flowing with the wind.

Their costumes matched well with their powers. One was wearing a red dress while the other was wearing a blue dress.

The woman using fire held a red pearl in her hand. Every time she casted a spell, she would use the red pearl to make the fire even greater, forming a long snake.

Watching that, Li Nianfan could not help smiling.

The crowd was shocked. Longevous Qingfeng did not understand. He asked, “May I know why Mr. Li’s laughing?”

“I thought of something interesting. These two women are quite interesting,” Li Nianfan waved it off. However, seeing that everyone was still looking at him, he had to continue, “I wonder if you all have seen some fire tricks? I suddenly realized that the woman doesn’t even need the pearl. If she had kerosene, she would’ve had a similar effect.”

“Huh?”

Everyone halted. They looked at the ring and were shocked.

It seemed…to be true!

The red pearl was a middle-ranged treasure, and yet, its effect was merely like kerosene?

Li Nianfan continued, “Furthermore, kerosene can control the opponent’s water since fire can burn on water. If she uses kerosene, perhaps the result of the match would be more apparent.”

This… This…

Everyone was shocked.

They were cultivators. They usually used their treasures and spells to fight. Who would have thought that the ordinary men had such tricks as well?

This…the ordinary item could have such a huge effect as well?

The ordinary men knew about this, but they had never thought about using it this way.

The Holy Emperor could not help saying, “Mr. Li’s indeed a genius. One word from you is already so thought-provoking!”

However, even though they were all in awe, they did not take it to heart. This concept would be helpful to the cultivators of lower rankings, but to those around the table, it was useless.

“Actually, it’s a very simple concept. It’s normal not to realize it when you’re used to it.” Li Nianfan smiled and simply made an example, “For example, Mr. Yao likes to play the instrument. If you want the sound to travel further, you could place a speaker by the side.”

Vroom!

Yao Mengji, Qin Manyun, and Gu Xirou instantly felt their heads exploding.

The Linxian Palace cultivated music. They passed on music sheets and usually controlled their volume through their techniques, music sheets, and instruments. They could actually place a speaker by the side?

Yeah, why not?

If this speaker was also a treasure, how powerful would they become?

Gasp…

Their scalps were instantly numbed. They looked at Li Nianfan and tried their best not to start worshipping him.

The expert was obviously making a point!

The others were equally shocked.

They pursed their lips. Suddenly, they all felt embarrassed.

How could they look down on this low-level fight? Look at the expert. Even though he was so powerful, he still watched them happily and thought of so many ideas from watching them.

What was their difference? This was their difference!

This showed their differences right away.

To be compared with the expert…wait, they had no right to be put in comparison with the expert! They were nothing beside him!

Where were their brains?

What was the use of even growing one?

Why were they so stupid?

Yao Mengji said sincerely, “Mr. Li, what you said was very useful. I’m enlightened. Thank you.”

Li Nianfan could not help smiling as he mocked playfully, “Ha-ha, Mr. Yao, you’re amusing. Unless you’re really serious about using a speaker to increase the volume? Why don’t you try it now and see how far the sound can travel?”

By the side, Gu Xirou flipped her wrist and two items appeared.

One was a blue hat and the other was a red fan.

She said, “By fate, Qingfeng, here’re two things. One’s a fire element attack and one’s a water element defense. Help me give these to the two ladies.”

These two middle-ranged items were useless to her. They could not even be considered toys.

These two young ladies were the reason the expert said such a thing. This was a great opportunity for her. It was a must to reward the ladies.

Li Nianfan looked at her in awe. His jaw almost dropped.

How cool was it to be an Immortal? How rich and healthy. When they were pleased, they could simply give away treasures. How cool was that! He could only shout out ‘Smooth and Slick!’ from afar.

Was this the world of a bigshot?

Longevous did not waste any time. He personally flew off the tower and handed the two treasures to the ladies.

The two young ladies were very delighted. They instantly stopped the fighting and bowed at the tower sincerely.

Treasures and Weapons were two different things. Furthermore, these were middle-ranged Treasures. Even the Yuan Ying cultivators would treat these as the greatest treasures!

Who would have thought that they would be rewarded by the Immortal? This was like a free cookie dropping from the sky!

Apart from the two ladies, their Sects were very grateful as well. Their Sect Masters stood up and bowed at the tower.

Li Nianfan saw it all. He somehow wanted to laugh.

He felt as if he was watching a live stream of a bigshot rewarding disciples handsomely. If the two ladies shouted ‘Smooth and Slick!’ it would be perfect!

The others did not expect that the Immortal would reward them. Their eyes reddened. They powered up and used up all of their energy to perform. They almost hung a ‘Reward me, please!’ sign on their heads!

The scene became even more exciting. They were fighting with all kinds of effects. Li Nianfan was very satisfied. This was more exciting than watching his imaginary television in his four-part architecture.

The crowd ate and drank. They talked and laughed while watching the show. Time had passed unknowingly.

It was already in the afternoon.

Without warning, countless lights shot in from outside. Along with that, a striking chill arrived, disrupting the lively and peaceful atmosphere. Following that, an oppressive temperament engulfed the entire space.

An elderly dressed in grey was floating mid-air. His eyes were sharp like an eagle’s as he glared down from above.

Behind him were six cultivators. They were high ranking and seemed as if they were searching for something.

The elder in grey clothes scoffed coldly in a low voice, “She definitely came in this direction. Search everywhere!”

“Search!”

The six cultivators behind him instantly searched around in orbs of light. They flew around, searching every corner.

Longevous Qingfeng’s face instantly sank. He was so angry that he trembled all over.

He worked so hard to please the expert!

Just as the expert seemed pleased and the show was about to be over, this thing happened?

What had he done to this elder!

More importantly, one of the lights was shooting directly toward this tower!

Longevous Qingfeng could not hold it anymore. He exploded. “Damn it! Get out of here!”

His eyes were sparkling with a chill. He made a gesture. Instantly, the sound of a tsunami was heard followed by a tornado forming in the shape of a palm. As if swatting a fly, the palm swatted in the direction of the light.

Just as the light was traveling, it was quickly swatted away before it could even react. In the blink of an eye, it had vanished.

The elder’s face darkened, his eyes piercing like electricity. He looked at the tower and scoffed, “Who was it?!”

“It was me!” Longevous Qingfeng said with a solemn look. He first bowed at Li Nianfan and the crowd before flying off. Then, he scoffed in a low voice, “Hou Xinghai, this is the Cultivators Convention. Do you know what you’ve done by showing up unannounced?”

“Ha-ha, Longevous Qingfeng, pardon me.” Hou Xinghai smiled. He retained a stiff attitude and said, “I came here to look for a young girl. I don’t have any ill intentions. Please, allow me to proceed.”
