I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 474: Self-Obsessed Ye Huaian

Black and White Impermanence left with the wind. They made no sound and soon disappeared in the darkness.

The scene regained its calmness. Only the wind was blowing.

Ye Huaian crawled up in fear. He dared not even stand up. He had an apologetic smile as he said nervously, “Immortal…no, Lord…Lord Saint… I was ignorant, I deserve to be dead. Also, thank you for saving our lives. Please, let me kneel before you!”

Before he finished speaking, he started worshipping Li Nianfan.

The others followed. They were all very sincere.

Li Nianfan waved it off. “It’s okay, come back up.”

Ye Huaian quickly said, “Lord Saint, don’t mind me. I don’t mind anything else, I like to bow, my body does it without my control.”

Li Nianfan could not help shaking his head. “I just happen to have some connections. I’m actually an ordinary man myself.”

Ye Huaian could not help scowling at him in his head. Only a fool would believe him.

Who was that? That was the infamous Black and White Impermanence! The Onis from the Underworld! They were nothing ordinary!

And yet, what did they do when they saw Li Nianfan?

They came over to greet him! They treated him so politely! They were so humble in front of him! It was apparent that Li Nianfan was higher ranking than them! That was beyond imagination!

How cool was that! Ye Huaian met such a powerful Immortal! He even talked to him along the way! It felt like a dream now!

Ye Huaian was too excited and he found it hard to believe. He was unsettled and did not feel like himself.

Li Nianfan did not bother to say anything. He said, “Alright, hurry!”

When Ye Huaian heard that Li Nianfan was still going to sit in his carriage, he jolted entirely. He nodded. “Yes, yes, right away!”

Quickly, the caravan resumed the journey.

Ye Huaian was uneasy. He thought for a long time before taking out a wine jar to pour Li Nianfan a glass of wine. He bit his tongue and said, “Lord Saint, this is the best wine from Qingfeng Pavilion. It’s the best wine I could get. Please, have a try.”

Li Nianfan smiled. “Free of charge?”

Ye Huaian nodded his head awkwardly. “Free, free!”

“Okay.” Li Nianfan accepted the wine glass and drank it.

Ye Huaian let out a sigh of relief. He wanted to get close to Li Nianfan but he did not know how. He was intimidated as well and thus, he was finding it challenging.

With that, another half an hour had gone by. The sky was turning bright. The fat man riding the horse said out of the blue, “Brother Huaian, we’re here. It’s here.”

Smack!

Ye Huaian halted. He smacked the fat man’s head and scowled at him in a low voice, “Are you an idiot? Why did you stop? Of course, we’re sending Lord Saint into the Gaolao Village!”

The fat man said innocently, “Didn’t you tell me to stop here before?”

Ye Huaian was so angry that he said, “Is something wrong with your head? That was before, are you stupid?”

“Alright, no need. It’s not far, we’ll walk over.” Li Nianfan and Nanan left the carriage.

Ye Huaian quickly went forward. He led the way enthusiastically, “Lord Saint, just walk down in this direction. It’s a straight road and you’ll get there.”

With that, he bowed sincerely. “Goodbye, Lord Saint.”

Ye Huaian did not snap back to reality until Li Nianfan had gone out of sight. He tried to calm down his beating heart with uneasiness.

“Who’d have thought that I could come so close to an Immortal!”

He was very emotional. He ran back to the caravan and said with excitement, “Didn’t you see? He’s an Immortal! He’s a Lord Saint! I feel like I’m a step closer to becoming an Immortal! I actually met one! This is huge progress!”

Meanwhile, he saw that the fat man was about to sit on top of the goods. He quickly said, “What are you doing? Don’t move!”

He rushed over, “Lord Saint sat here before. Circle it, preserve it, and worship it!”

He glanced around and he jolted. He felt as if he was struck by lightning. “This…this is…”

He saw that the spot Li Nianfan sat on had rows of gold. Those were the ones hanging on Nanan when they first met.

Under the sunlight, they were glowing so brightly.

“I understand. That was a test from an Immortal! They pretended to be siblings in gold to test if I could be seduced by money! They were testing my heart! What an effort!”

Ye Huaian understood it right away. He was genuinely touched. His emotions were as if he was riding on a roller coaster, skyrocketing!

He said with a trembling voice, “Thank you, Lord Saint, for your test. With this money, I’ll be able to break through my Foundation Building realm. I’ll become a qualified cultivator!”

With another glance, he saw the wine glass beside the gold.

The glass was not empty. It was filled with a burgundy-colored fine wine. It was glowing stunningly.

“This is…wine?”

Ye Huaian’s heart thumped. His eyes popped out.

He recognized this. Li Nianfan would take a few sips from time to time. He tried to ask for it but was turned down by him. So, Li Nianfan left this for him.

He cautiously picked up the wine glass.

However, the moment he touched the wine glass, his entire body jolted. His hair was standing all over as if his pores had all opened up, breathing wildly.

“This…this…this is…”

A flow of electric current shot into Ye Huaian. He had goosebumps all over and his scalp went numb.

With just a touch, he already had so much reaction. It was as if a voice was telling him that this wine was nothing ordinary. It was extraordinary!

A glass of wine that could change his life!

Although he did not know what grade of treasure this wine was, he had no doubt…

This was an opportunity! This was a great opportunity!

He thought the gold was already the greatest reward. Little did he expect that the Lord Saint would have left this behind for him!

“This is too much! Lord Saint is overly generous. I… I…”

Ye Huaian mumbled with tears in his eyes. The pea-sized tears were rolling down his cheeks. He was very touched.

Lord Saint thought so highly of him! That was why he left him with such an opportunity!

‘I know I’m self-obsessed. I know I like to tell lies, but what makes you think I’m so important!

‘Perhaps Lord Saint thinks I have potential?’

Ye Huaian took in a deep breath and knelt on his knees. He bowed three times in the direction of Li Nianfan and whispered, “Don’t worry, Lord Saint. I won’t let you down! I won’t just become a Heavenly Guard, I’ll become the number one General!”

…

Of course, Li Nianfan had no idea what Ye Huaian was feeling. To him, it was just an ordinary wine.

“When the man tastes my wine, he must be so impressed. The wine he gave me was so bad!”

As for the gold, he and Nanan ‘stole’ it on the way. There was no use for him to keep them anyway, so he might as well leave it for someone in need. Ye Huaian seemed like a good man. He might become a powerful cultivator one day, who knows.

Everything…everything was a nonchalant act of Li Nianfan. He was just acting out of free will.

As he walked down the path, the view here was different from the forest.

Although there were also trees, the trees in the forest were wild and messy, many of which were overgrown. There were stones scattered everywhere. Here, however, everything was orderly planted. It was apparent that someone was maintaining this place.

Furthermore, as they walked ahead, a sign with ‘Gaojia Village’ written on it was hanging over a wooden door. Gradually, the farmland came into sight. They were all in order. There were signs of people living here with tile-roofed houses coming in sight.

Nanan’s eyes lit up suddenly. “Brother, there’s a demon Qi in front. They seem to be fighting vigorously there.”

As she spoke, a flame shot to the sky and exploded in the air. Following that, ripples of Qi lashed out along with the glow in all directions.

It seemed exciting.

“Let’s go and have a look.”

Clouds appeared below Li Nianfan and Nanan’s feet. They were rolling over at a high speed without attracting too much attention.

They went past many houses and stopped before a bigger house.

Many people were surrounding it by now, including many cultivators.

Moo!

Meanwhile, a yellow bull made a sound with demonic Qi all over. It rushed out from the yard of the house and escaped.

“What a daring bull! You killed people in here and now you’re trying to run away!?”

In the yard, a scoff was heard. Following that, a black chain shot out like a python. It was glowing as it entangled the bull demon.

The Bull Demon turned over and opened its mouth. Its drool was instantly turned into a water shield, blocking the chain.

A moment later, another thin, yellow rope wrapped around the bull’s hooves. With a jolt, four of its hooves were tied up.

The Bull Demon cried out and fell to the floor.

“Kill the demon!”

With a scoff, a blue sword appeared. It cut through the air and went right into the neck of the Bull Demon!

The sword cut its head off!

Before it died, the Bull Demon’s two horns glowed up. With a tilt of its head, its horns blocked the sword.

Vroom!

The Bull Demon’s horns were cut in halves. Fresh blood oozed out of it. It laid on the ground with only one breath left.

The people inside the surrounding houses stretched out their heads and looked at it with uneasiness. The more daring ones rushed over to watch how they killed the demon.

In the yard, a group of people gradually walked out. They were different from the rest. They were cultivators.

The sword made a spin in the sky and returned to a young man’s hand.

He scoffed, “A mere Bull Demon! How dare you mess around in Gaojia Village! I’ll kill you today to worship my master!”

The bull demon opened its mouth to speak and wailed, “I haven’t killed anyone ever since becoming a demon. I won’t even try to kill Master Gao! Someone’s framing me! Please, trust me!”
