Yikes—

They gasped at the same time and looked at each other. They were both terrified.

Did someone use this Immortal Item…for a lantern?

Incredible, unimaginable!

Their hearts were racing. They suddenly felt like it was nice to be a lantern.

They looked at the other fireflies anxiously.

At this rate, these ordinary fireflies would develop their consciousness. If they did not do something about it, they would be surpassed as leaders of the fireflies!

Training time!

They had to start training since they found a new cultivation method!

They did not dare to relax.

However, they were once again stumped. They felt dizzy, like someone had smacked them on the head.

The Spiritual Qi in here was insane…

It was too much! Too intense!

It made their cultivation process way too fast!

It even made them feel like they could take a deep breath in replacement of a whole day’s worth of training!

What kind of Godly speed was that?

They were too scared to continue training with that speed.

“This… What else…is in this lantern?” asked one of the Firefly Demons in a trembling voice.

Everything in here had surpassed its knowledge. It was as if an ordinary person went to the Heavenly Temple. It was a genuinely terrifying kind of excitement.

The other Firefly Demon gulped and said, “I…I don’t know, but I know the materials are impeccable!”

They carefully flew inside the lantern and observed every corner.

They were envious of the other fireflies. “Ignorance is bliss! This is the luckiest day of your lives!”

Then, they looked at the same spot, a spot where the bamboo sticks met. The crossover was tied together using willow as a rope.

Instinctively, they felt afraid when they got close to it.

Bigshot!

Absolute bigshot!

They avoided it and continued with their observation.

The most obvious part of the lantern was the red cloth. Nothing seemed to be wrong with it.

However, there was a ‘Fu’ written on it.

They were thunderstruck, almost like they might blow up.

It was beyond their knowledge of the world. Like an ant discovering the sky.

Too scary!

The word signified ‘Fortune’!

They stopped observing and looked away, trembling in a corner.

They felt weak, small, and insignificant.

Li Nianfan and Daji were eating breakfast. Their meal was slightly better, all thanks to the basket of eggs from Auntie Zhang. A fried egg, porridge, and salted vegetables was an enjoyable breakfast.

It would have been perfect if they had milk and bread. They could not keep having porridge for breakfast forever.

Suddenly, Li Nianfan looked at the lantern and asked, “Oh yeah, what do fireflies eat?”

He finally had the perfect light source. It would be a shame if they starved to death. He could not do that to those poor bugs.

Daji thought about it and answered, “I think…dew.”

Li Nianfan was startled and he laughed. “Dew? Just like little fairies.”

He looked at the lantern and said, “Maybe I could replace it with porridge juice.”

Soon, he poured some porridge juice into the lantern.

The two Firefly Demons jolted when the porridge juice was poured in. They were easily frightened, like a poor man visiting the home of a rich person.

They sighed in relief when they realized it was just porridge juice.

Then, they curiously examined it.

Was this…porridge?

Compared to dew, the juice was whiter and stickier. It also had a unique aroma.

They wanted to try it.

Before they became demons, they only ate dew. Once they became demons, they became picky eaters.

Deep down, they despised porridge.

However, this porridge smelled so good. It was also given by a bigshot, so they had to try it.

Maybe they should try a sip?

They slowly flew towards the white porridge juice.

Slurp.

They took a sip and suddenly, they were overwhelmed with the aroma and flavors.

Delicious, super delicious!

They only ate dew because dew was clean and refreshing. It also had a hint of floral sweetness to it. They did not know why but this porridge juice was better than dew. Also… It was unforgettably tasty.

Such wonderful food existed in this world!

They were satisfied. It was a pleasure being able to eat such wonderful food. Their bug lives were worth it.

Suddenly, their Spiritual Qi erupted like a volcano!

It was pouring out!

Buzz!

They felt like they had leveled up as waves of Insights poured into them, widening their minds.

Then, their bodies started to expand, too.

One Firefly Demon had a hoarse voice as it was trying to hold it together. “I can’t do this. I think I’m leveling up.”

The other Firefly Demon replied, “Me, too!”

They always wanted to level up but to no avail. They did not expect to be leveling up at the wrong time. They had to suppress it. It was unreal.

“I…I can’t hold it anymore!” One of the demons was expanding in size. “No, I can’t get bigger, I mustn’t expand. I’m supposed to be an emotionless light! I’ll expose my identity if I keep expanding.”

“Light? Light? I got it!”

The other Firefly Demon caught on and yelled, “We have to focus all our powers on our tail lights! Be a proper light!”
