I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 371: Li Nianfan’s Plan. Someone Was Here!

The Black Dragon’s request was satisfied. He soon died peacefully with no pain.

Li Nianfan looked at Ao Cheng and asked curiously, “Brother Ao Cheng, are you guys in the middle of an internal conflict?”

“Sorry to have embarrassed ourselves. I only found out recently that they betrayed us after the major catastrophe. As a result, all four seas were severely harmed.”

Ao Cheng shook his head bitterly. He continued, “Unfortunately, they still took the Dragon Soul Pearl. Perhaps it’s going to get troublesome in the future.” He frowned. He was anxious.

Dragin’s eyes flashed. She said innocently, “Father, what’s the Dragon Soul Pearl for?”

“As you saw, there’s a black hole under the water, the Sea Eye. It’s known as the Eye of the four-seas!” Ao Cheng halted. Then, he continued, “There’s boundless seawater inside the Sea Eye. Once it loses control, the seawater will flood the entire world. The villagers would be in pain and vanish while the Dragon Soul Pearl will be used to control the Sea Eye.”

“So terrifying?” Li Nianfan’s face instantly changed. He could not help looking at the sea. “Wasn’t the Dragon Soul Pearl taken away? Why doesn’t the Sea Eye have any reaction?”

Perhaps there was a delay?

“This...” Ao Cheng cautiously looked at Li Nianfan. “Perhaps...the Sea Eye has been calmed and doesn’t need to be controlled.”

He knew well enough that the reason it did not explode was purely because of the expert.

A Deluxe Merit Saint was able to make the Sea Eye behave this way, but...was the expert merely a Deluxe Merit Saint? Maybe that was just the surface.

With the expert around, just a word from him was able to make the entire world listen!

Li Nianfan let out a sigh of relief. “That’s great! Hopefully, this Sea Eye could remain stable to make everyone less worried.”

Ao Cheng had a look of delight in his eyes. With this sentence from the expert, he felt that 80 percent of the problem was solved. This was more effective than any treasure!

The expert’s words were like gold. Since he said it had to be stable, then it had to be stable. Would the Sea Eye dare to mess things up? Obviously not!

“The problem with the Sea Eye isn’t big.” Ao Yun let out a sigh of relief. He said with a worried tone, “However, the Dragon Soul Pearl contains too much power. If they have it in hand, they’d use it to cause major problems.”

Back then, besides the dragon family, countless bigshots were tossed into the Sea Eye since ancient times to calm the Sea Eye. Since the Dragon Soul Pearl had gathered so much energy from the bigshots, its power was incredibly shocking.

The Southern Sea Dragon Family had snatched the Dragon Soul Pearl. Their intention was too scary!

Li Nianfan could not help them. He could only comfort them by saying, “The ship at the dock will be right. There’ll be a way.”

“Hopefully what you say comes true,” Ao Chen nodded. He added, “Mr. Li, thank you for coming in time today. If not, Brother Ao Yun would’ve been in trouble.”

Ao Yu nodded and said sincerely, “Yeah, Mr. Li, you saved my life once again.”

“It’s just a coincidence. Furthermore, I merely came for the excitement. They’re the ones who helped you.” Li Nianfan pointed at the Fire Phoenix and Ziye.

Instantly, Ao Chen and Ao Yun said in unison, “Thank you Immortal Fire Phoenix, Princess Ziye.”

Ziye waved, “It’s okay, it’s nothing.”

Ao Chen invited, “It’s quite late now, why don’t you all stay a night at my place? I’ve picked some hairy crabs recently. Their meat is top-graded.”

LI Nianfan smiled and shook his head and said, “It’s okay. It doesn’t take too long to go back.”

“I shall go back to the Heavenly Temple,” Ziye said as she shook her head, too. She sighed as she had been thinking of ways to unseal it but still had no clue. Her brows furrowed with worry.

Li Nianfan could not help comforting her, “Immortal Ziye, now that you’ve found the Heavenly Temple, you’ll eventually find ways to unseal it. Since you’ve already waited for so long, why hurry?”

Ziye was instantly relieved. She seemed to have understood it. She said, “Thank you, Mr. Li, for pointing this out. I was too close-minded.”

Recently, she had not felt too secure. She had been blaming herself and being anxiously absent-minded. To an Immortal, this was a terrifying thing.

If she was unable to wake up, there would be some obstacles in her cultivation. Perhaps she might die with just a thought.

However, after Li Nianfan had pointed it out, she instantly had cold sweat all over her body.

Ao Chen quickly arranged for some hairy crabs for Li Nianfan to bring home.

Li Nianfan did not resist. He thanked him and left.

His trip to the sea did make him some gains. Apart from all kinds of seafood, there was even dragon meat along with those huge hairy crabs. He did not have to go out for a long time.

On the way back, they were not in a rush. They were slowly enjoying the sea breeze in the air.

Li Nianfan could not help saying, “Unknowingly, this trip has taken us almost three months.”

This was the longest time Li Nianfan had been away from home after his trip to this realm. He traveled the furthest this time.

Daji looked at Li Nianfan. She asked caringly, “Mr. Li, are you...happy?”

Li Nianfan looked at Daji. He asked with a smile, “What about you?”

Daji’s eyes sparkled like water as she said gently, “As long as I’m with Mr. Li, I’ll be happy.”

“Hahaha, me, too.”

Under the moonlight, Li Nianfan reached out to hold Daji’s hand.

Her hand was gentle and small. In his hand, it felt as if it was boneless. Furthermore, compared to Daji’s cold temperament and her cold spells, her hand was surprisingly warm.

Li Nianfan did not intend to do anything. However, just from holding her hand, he felt like he was unable to let her go. Suddenly, he felt very at ease.

He could not help looking at Daji. He saw her cheeks blushing, her tiny head slightly lowered like a mimosa, unable to be touched.

Daji already looked very beautiful. With the night sky as her background along with the gentle waves behind her, she was like an Immortal under the moon. It seemed almost as if she was glowing, looking extremely beautiful.

Li Nianfan was amused. He had a playful thought. He held Daji’s hand and gently kissed her on her palm.

Muack!

Daji instantly moaned softly. She could not help herself from leaning toward Li Nianfan slightly.

The Fire Phoenix, Dragin, and Nanan were watching even though they knew they should not be watching. They had no emotion on their faces and did not look at them too obviously. It seemed as if they did not know anything.

Li Nianfan was playing with Daji. He was amused and yet, he said with a serious tone, “This trip is indeed quite joyful, and we did go through quite some things.”

They arrived at the Xia Kingdom first. They then went to a Buddhist temple, and then to the Underworld. They even went to the East Sea.

On the way, they met some obstacles and witnessed the fight between Buddhism and Demons. There was even an internal conflict between the dragons. They had been through the death of friends and learned more about the catastrophe.

There were many gains and many emotions.

“Hmm.” Daji’s voice was slow. She was absent-minded and a little startled.

“This world...” Li Nianfan took a deep breath and suddenly did not know what to do.

This was the world similar to the familiar mythology he used to read about. Meanwhile, this was also a dangerous place with mutual murderous plotting—a world full of violence.

Daji asked, concerned, “Mr. Li, what about this world?”

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Nothing, I just feel that some unity would be ideal. Now that it’s quite chaotic, it’s not going on the right track.”

He felt that after the major catastrophe, many heroes were fighting internally and externally. They had no more restraint.

Most importantly, Jiese and Yun Yiyi died. Li Nianfan was deeply touched. Earlier on, Ao Chen almost died as well.

He thought about his journey and how the Kirin attacked them. It seemed that everyone around him was under attack.

This was unsettling.

If this did not happen around him, he would not have felt it. However, now that it happened in front of him, it felt different again.

Daji said, “Mr. Li, this day isn’t too far away.”

Li Nianfan smiled. “Hopefully. I’m merely expressing my feelings. The sky’s getting dark. Let’s hurry and go home and rest.”

He looked at Daji. He was moved.

He and Daji had finally gotten closer. His chance of a successful confession would be a hundred percent!

However...this was not the era for that. Confessing was too ‘low’. There was no boyfriend or girlfriend. He might as well propose right away!

He was prepared to pick a suitable time to propose to Daji.

He genuinely hoped their wedding would be...as formal and grand as possible.

After all, he did know quite some people. Furthermore, each of them was a bigshot. He would invite them all.

Meanwhile...

Ziye went back to the Heavenly Temple.

She stood on the Heavenly Bridge for a long time, staring blankly. Inside the Heavenly Temple, there was no glow but a vast silence.

Finally, she sighed. “I shouldn’t come here before finding a solution.”

Every time she came here, she would be emotional and hurt.

The expert was right. She had waited all these years. Now that the Heavenly Temple resurfaced, there was no fear in waiting.

Not to hurry, not to hurry.

She calmed her heart. She walked off the bridge and went past the buildings. She was ready to greet her sister in the Rainbow Seven Pavilion. She would not be visiting them often in the future.

However, when she arrived at the Seven Rainbow Pavilion, her pupils dilated. She remained transfixed on the spot. Her face was changing constantly from excitement to unease. Even her breathing became rapid.

Before she left, she intentionally removed a hairpin and placed it between the door. However, the hairpin had...disappeared!

Click!

Anxiously, she pushed the door open to enter. There were tears in her eyes as she ran around quickly. Finally, she stopped in front of the stone statues of the five sisters.

Her voice was trembling with anticipation as she said, “Second Sister, is that you?”
