I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot - Chapter 508

Chapter 508:  Can I Handle That as an Ordinary Man?

Everyone looked at the diamond ring.

It looked like it had a halo. Everyone felt like their Primordial Spirits were being sucked in.

Stars seemed to be moving inside the diamond. It was like there was an entire universe inside. It signified an infinite world with trees, mountains, rivers, the sunrise, and the moon. It was mesmerizing.

Any light that was reflected on it was bone-chilling. It made them anxious.

Aside from the diamond at the center, the ring setting itself shined lively. An aura was subtly emitted. It could defeat a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure anytime!

‘It’s a weapon! A legendary weapon!

‘This weapon must be unimaginably powerful because the expert actually put effort into it.’

Li Nianfan inspected it for a while. He smiled and said, “How is it? Pretty, right?”

Everyone bafflingly replied, “Pretty… Pretty.”

‘Is pretty the word to describe this thing? This is straight-up incredible.’

They could not believe that they witnessed the birth of an ultimate weapon. Moreover, it was artificially made.

That was incredible!

According to their knowledge, Chaos Treasure must be born in the Chaos. Artificially-created treasures would be inferior to a Deluxe Spiritual Treasure.

That was the rule.

However, the expert was exempted from the rules of nature. He was beyond that.

‘Rules are indeed made for ordinary people like you and me. The expert…is the one who makes the rules.’

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “It’s not a treasure, but it looks so good. I put a lot of effort into it. Daji will like it for sure.”

Girls naturally loved shiny objects. The girls in his past realm loved diamonds. Daji must be the same, too. After all, the super bigshots Goddess Nuwa and Yun Shu looked like they loved it, too.

Everyone almost fell over. Their faces started to twitch. They held their breaths and endured it. They almost coughed up blood.

‘Bigshot, please, stop showing off.’

‘Not a treasure?’

‘This is a super treasure to us. Alright?’

‘Are you trying to insult us?’

They walked out of the Food God Mansion. Nanan got close to Li Nianfan and whispered in his ear, “Brother, is this ring for Sister Daji only?”

Li Nianfan rolled his eyes, “Duh. There’s only one ring. Why? Do you want one? Too bad, no rings for you!”

Nanan shook her head. Then, she said, “No, you only give it to Sister Daji. What about Sister Fire Phoenix?”

Li Nianfan smiled troublingly and asked, “What do you think this is? I’m trying to propose. This isn’t a gift. How can I simply give away a diamond ring?”

Nanan continued, “You’re proposing to Sister Daji. What about Sister Fire Phoenix?”

“What do you mean?” Li Nianfan felt his heart sink slightly. He had to sneakily glance at Fire Phoenix.

Her eyelids were droopy. She looked distracted. Her brows were furrowed like she was sad. She was also kind of sighing under her breath. She pretended to be strong, like it did not affect her, exactly like how girls would react to heartbreak!

‘No way…’

Nanan said, “Sister Fire Phoenix will be jealous.”

Li Nianfan asked the most important question, “Jealous of who?”

He could not believe that Fire Phoenix had a crush on him.

She was a Phoenix. Li Nianfan had the utmost respect for her. ‘How can a legendary Phoenix Goddess like me?’

He was close with Fire Phoenix. They had been living together under the same roof. However… He could not imagine that something would happen between them.

After all, Phoenixes were a symbol of regality and pride. They were utterly holy.

It would be kind of awesome if a Phoenix had a crush on him. He was considered a legend amongst people who transmigrated.

Fire Phoenix and Daji were close, too close. Perhaps they were the true couple?

‘If it’s as Nanan said, what will happen between me and Fire Phoenix? What will our children look like?

‘Will it be a bird or a person?’

Li Nianfan started to think about nonsense.

Nanan said, “I often hear Sister Fire Phoenix talking to Sister Daji. If you only marry Sister Daji and not Sister Fire Phoenix, Sister Fire Phoenix will feel very sad.”

Li Nianfan frowned and confirmed, “Are you sure?”

Nanan suggested, “Brother, you’re going to marry anyway. Just marry them together. Saves the effort, too.”

‘Is this a matter of saving effort?’

Li Nianfan rolled his eyes, but he was internally struggling.

First of all, he was a normal man. He was not a priest with no desires in front of a beautiful woman. If a man could marry two beautiful women, he believed that no one would say no.

Most importantly, it was up to Daji and the Fire Phoenix.

He should prepare something beforehand just in case.

He thought about it and said, “Goddess Fire Phoenix, I have to run an errand with Nanan. Maybe you should go back first?”

“Yeah. I’ll leave then.” Fire Phoenix was upset. She depressingly left on her own.

Nanan blinked. “Look, brother. I told you.”

Li Nianfan glared at her. Then, he sighed, “Perhaps this is the curse of being too irresistible. Let’s go back to the Food God Mansion.”

He once again borrowed the stove of the Food God.

He melted the ingredients again to create all sorts of gold or silver jewelry.

The Food God exclaimed, “Lord Saint, there are a lot of metal pieces on the floor.”

Li Nianfan turned to look. He said with an apologetic tone, “These are all leftover junk. I have no use for them. Please, help me clean them up, Food God.”

The Food God said, “No trouble at all, no trouble at all. Safe travels, Lord Saint. Farewell, Lord Saint.”

They waited until Li Nianfan and Nanan left. Everyone in the Food God Mansion looked at the ‘leftover junk’. Their gazes were passionate.

Those were ingredients for ultimate treasures. Moreover, it was touched by the expert. Even if they were leftover ingredients, they were still ultimate treasures. They were not Ultimate Chaos Treasures, but they were better than Heavenly Spiritual Treasures!

They contained a hint of ultimate power!

The expert naturally did not want them. However, the trash of the expert was a come-up for everyone. Those were ultimate treasures to them!

As expected, garbage from the expert would make anyone powerful!

“Nobody move!” Goddess Nuwa and Yun Shu said at the same time. “It’s a waste to give you these treasures. We should keep them safe.”

…

It was nighttime.

The stars were shining.

At the Palace of the Deluxe Merit Saint. At the observatory.

Li Nianfan sat across from Daji. They had a rectangular table between them with candles at the center. The red wine in the wine glasses swayed in the candlelight and glimmered.

The sheen of the red wine reflected onto Daji. Her beautiful face was even more stunning. It made the stars and the moon seem dim.

The Palace of the Deluxe Merit Saint was surrounded by millions of stars. A Star River passed through with stars in it. However, it looked cold.

From afar.

The candlelight was the only warm light amongst the cold lights.

The candlelight dinner was romantic. There was no doubt that people could easily fall in love there.

It was like a drug to Daji. She was breathing fast, her heartbeat quickened, and she could not stay calm. She also could not look at Li Nianfan.

She moved her long hair back and stood up. She picked up her wine glass and said, “I’ll pour more wine for you, Master.”

Li Nianfan stopped her. He calmly said, “Sit down. Don’t move.”

Daji obeyed. She could feel Li Nianfan looking at her. She clenched her fists because she was nervous.

Li Nianfan asked, “Daji, do you have any plans for the future?”

“I only want to stay beside you and serve you. As long as you’re happy, I’ll be happy too,” Daji answered without hesitation. Then, she jolted and bit her lip. She looked at Li Nianfan and asked, “Are you going to chase me away?”

She looked at Li Nianfan with teary eyes.

“Please, don’t chase me away. I’ll do anything.”

“Of course, I won’t chase you out.”

Li Nianfan felt speechless. Daji was too sensitive. He hurriedly said, “I was just curious. You’ve been beside me every day and night. Don’t you think it’s a simple but boring life?”

“No.” Daji kept shaking her head. “I’m willing to stay beside you, even if I don’t speak.”

“Silly girl.”

Li Nianfan laughed. He could tell that Daji was still the girl she saved from the woods. She became a powerful cultivator, but she was still the same.

It had been almost two years since then.

Li Nianfan sighed with sentimentality. “Won’t you get bored of me after a hundred years, a thousand years, or a million years?”

“How will I get bored of you? If…” Daji stopped. She sneakily looked at Li Nianfan and buried her head down. She stopped speaking.

Li Nianfan asked curiously, “If what?”

“If… We have a baby, life won’t be boring. It’ll be interesting.” Daji was blushing. She mumbled and got quieter.

She accidentally told him her deepest fantasy.

Li Nianfan heard that. He was surprised at first. Then, he burst out laughing.

He said, “Daji, give me your hand.”

Daji had her head down. She silently outstretched her pretty hand.

Li Nianfan held her palm. Then, he slowly put the diamond ring on her finger.

Daji felt something. She slowly looked up and stared with wide eyes. Her red lips were slightly ajar. She looked cute.

Li Nianfan continued, “Daji, let’s get married.”

It was a simple phrase and a peaceful setting.

He did not invite the Immortals to hype him up, and he did not ask anyone to manipulate the stars into a heart figure.

It was too much.

The marriage proposal should be just between the two of them.

Boom!

Daji instantly went blank. She felt stunned by the huge surprise. She was dizzy and her face was fiery red.

‘Marry the expert?’

That was something from her dreams.

She always felt like as long as she could stay beside the expert, serving the expert as a lowly servant was the happiest thing she could do.

If she did marry the expert, she felt like she would faint from happiness.

Li Nianfan noticed that she was in a daze. He had to laugh. He asked, “Will you marry me?”

“Yes, I do. I do!”

Daji repeatedly nodded. She looked at her ring, still in a daze. She suddenly had pitter-patter tears. She sobbed, “Am I dreaming?”

She was emotional and excited. She could not control her tears of joy. She was shaking from happiness.

At that moment, she felt like her life was complete. She could die with no regrets.

Perhaps it was part of the experience with the Master.

Marriage was a life experience for every person. It was the best memory in life. ‘Since the Master’s pretending to be an ordinary man, how can he not marry?

‘But… I’m lucky enough to be Master’s wife. This is a blessing. I’m so happy!

‘I don’t care if it’s real or not. I’m so happy!’

She did not care about everlasting love. She only cared about being loved.

Suddenly, Daji thought of something. She asked meekly, “How do you feel about Sister Fire Phoenix?”

Li Nianfan felt his heart sink, “Why?”

“Actually… Um…”

Daji asked carefully, “I want you to marry Sister Fire Phoenix, too. Will you marry her?”

‘Marry… Fire Phoenix, too?’

Li Nianfan had already planned to do that. He was moved. He still asked, “Daji, does the Fire Phoenix even want to marry me?”

Daji smiled, “Sister Fire Phoenix would love to.”

Li Nianfan nodded, “Alright. I’ve prepared something for Fire Phoenix, too. Help me pass it to her then.”

Li Nianfan took out the jewelry.

Daji looked at the jewelry, then she looked at Li Nianfan. Her gaze instantly became odd.

Li Nianfan coughed and said awkwardly, “I pre-prepared it for a reason.”

Daji smiled and said, “No need to explain, Master. I’ll go look for Sister Fire Phoenix now. She’ll be very happy.”

Then, she quickly went downstairs with the jewelry.

Li Nianfan awkwardly smiled and shook his head. He started to let his mind wander. He thought about the wedding.

As his mind wandered, he suddenly thought of something terrifying.

Daji was an Immortal. Fire Phoenix was a Phoenix. He was an ordinary human.

They were…so different.

‘I have a strong body, but I can’t compare to the two of them.’

Moreover…

Daji had ice-type powers. Fire Phoenix had fire powers.

‘Fire and Ice?

‘Can I handle that as an ordinary man?’

Li Nianfan subconsciously touched his waist. He felt flustered.

‘What should I do?

‘Help me!’
