I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 532: Do You Know How Hard Money Has to Work?

“Don’t go!”

Ruhua was clearly deranged. She was full of resentful energy. Her black Ghost energy had turned to tentacles. Qin Yun was grabbed by the ankle. It started to drag him toward her.

“You let me down, but I still choose to forgive you. After all, you’re the first man to make my heart beat. Come on, baby. Come into my arms.”

“No, no! Let go of me, you ugly resentful Ghost!”

Qin Yun had overflowing tears. It looked like waves. He held on to a nearby tree for dear life.

However, Ruhua pulled so hard that the tree was uprooted from the ground. Qin Yun was slowly dragged toward her.

“Ha. You called me sweetie, but now you call me a resentful Ghost once I take off my makeup. Men...”

Qin Yun yelled tragically, “Sis, my own sister, save me! Help!”

“Yikes, so noisy. I got it!”

Qin Chuyue waved. She looked serious. She tossed out another 10 pieces of silver. Her powers were activated. She swiped out a longsword out of thin air. “Ten silver for a sword!”

The longsword had a white halo’s shine. The aura of the sword was similar to cultivation powers, but not quite. It contained a hint of Insights.

“Chop!”

The sword soared and slashed through the horizon. It chopped through the intense Ghost energy. It looked like the sword was about to behead Ruhua. However, Ruhua gently raised her hand and blocked the attack.

“Sis, sister!”

Qin Yun cried like a helpless child. He panicked, “Can you stop saving money at this point?! I’m your little brother. Can’t you spend more money?”

“No!”

Qin Chuyue had the longsword in her hand. She scolded him, “Who asked you to flirt with her? You made the Ghost more resentful. Do you know that? I lost six silvers this time! If I have to keep spending money because of your foolishness. I don’t want you as a brother anymore!”

Qin Chuyue felt hurt.

She came to the village to defeat a Ghost and for the free silver.

She thought it was a fantastic deal. However, she did expect to run into the gorgeous Daji. The female Ghost became much more powerful. Then, her brother made things worse by being a flirt. The Ghost was more resentful than ever.

She did not earn money and she lost an extra six silvers. Her eyes were teary from her losses. ‘My money!’

Fire Phoenix watched the show from Li Nianfan’s shoulder. She lifted her claw and scratched her feathers. One golden feather trembled with her body.

She said, “The siblings have Wisdom Veins in them.”

Daji nodded, “I felt that, too. But it’s weird. The girl’s only a cultivator from the Yuan Ying realm while the guy isn’t a cultivator at all. However, they can manipulate Insights. It’s either a rare miracle or they downgraded. Perhaps they have the cultivation but lost their powers.”

Cultivators trained their powers before they trained their Wisdom.

It was an unchanging rule.

Wisdom would be faint if the cultivators were weak. They could not gain Wisdom overnight. Therefore, weak cultivators usually have poor Wisdom.

There were a lot of new outsider cultivators, but the basic rule would not change!

Li Nianfan spoke up. “Daji, hurry up and help them.”

“Yes.”

Daji nodded and slowly walked toward the battlefield.

Qin Yun was horrified. He was less than a meter away from the female Ghost. Qin Chuyue tried her best to interfere. She struggled and hesitated. She was unsure whether she should spend more money.

The three of them suddenly noticed the incoming Daji. They were all surprised.

“My face! My beautiful face is walking toward me!”

Ruhua was interested and excited. She cast Qin Yun aside. Her creepy Ghost energy started to slither toward Daji.

“Lady Daji, watch out, you...”

Qin Chuyue choked on her words as her eyes widened at the incredible sight.

The Ghost energy started to freeze as it got close to Daji!

Finally, it froze completely.

Then, the ice started to spread toward the Ghost. It easily froze Ruhua without a warning!

“How’s this possible?!”

Ruhua shuddered and looked at Daji with horror. She could not accept it. More so, she was jealous. “You’re already so beautiful, so why are you also powerful? Why? Why? This is so unfair!”

Her resentment poured out, but it was no use. She could not stop the ice at all.

All her resentment, anger, and hatred were meaningless.

It was cold!

A stinging cold started to wrap around her body.

She recalled a moment from many years ago when she was still young. Someone poured a bucket of cold water on her. Her clothes were drenched. She felt so cold.

Nobody pitied her. Some would not even look at her. She was forever accompanied by mockery and contempt.

Her resentment was through the roof.

One day, a voice whispered in her ear. The voice told her that she could start over if she died. She could be the most beautiful woman in the world.

She did it. She could not believe that it was true.

The first thing she did as a Resentful Spirit was to kill the girl who kept making fun of her. The girl was always proud of her beautiful eyes, so she took them and put them on herself. Then, she changed her nose. She also changed her mouth...

Soon, everybody knew her story. Humanity was indeed corrupted.

They would invite all the beautiful girls to their village to avoid death. They tricked them, stole from them, abducted them, and bought them. They used all sorts of ways.

‘Haha, but isn’t that better?

‘This will make me beautiful soon.

‘I finally found the most beautiful face in the world. This face is perfect, but... This face is toxic.

‘That pretty face won’t be mine...’

In the yard.

The Ghost energy froze. Ruhua was at the center of the ice statue. It looked like a frozen lotus flower.

Clang!

The lotus flower shattered into ice crystals. It shimmered under the moonlight.

All was peaceful in the silent night. The moonlight stayed the same, as if it was only an ordinary night.

The siblings looked at Daji with slightly hanging jaws. They said tremblingly, “You...you...you...

“You’re a cultivator!”

They were completely shocked. Li Nianfan and the others were too alike ordinary people. Cultivators were somewhat different from ordinary people. Even if cultivators hid their auras, other people could still sense their extraordinary manner.

The siblings did doubt her identity because she was too beautiful. However... After close observations, they knew she was not a cultivator.

They were wrong. She was not only a cultivator, she was a super-powerful expert.

“Phew—”

Qin Chuyue sighed in relief. “Good riddance. I saved a lot of unnecessary expenses.”

Qin Yun looked at Li Nianfan. He questioned him, “Mr. Li, are you really an ordinary man?”

“In the flesh.”

Qin Yun widened his eyes. “And you married a super beautiful Goddess as your wife?”

Daji cuddled his arm. She said softly, “My Master’s indeed an ordinary man.”

“No! I’m not an ordinary man! I’m a Master of romance!”

Qin Yun was in awe. “Master of romance, please take me in as your student!”

Li Nianfan felt proud of his beautiful wife. He shook his head. He smiled and said, “I just got lucky.”

He did not want to acknowledge the playboy. He yawned and said, “Daji, it’s getting late. Let’s go rest.”

“Master of romance! The real-life Master of romance!”

Qin Yun watched as they left. He sighed and said, “I had studied and practiced hard on flirting. I can’t believe Mr. Li’s a hundred times better than me at romance.”

“Ha. You aren’t too shabby yourself. After all, you’re the man who dared to guide Ruhua. I salute you, brave man.”

Qin Yun exclaimed with anger, “Sis, you’re too mean! Blood’s thicker than water. Is your own brother not worth the money?”

“I can’t spend more than ten silvers.”

...

The next day.

There were a lot of people gathering outside the yard. They all peeked inside.

Creak.

Li Nianfan and the others walked out from the yard.

The crowd instantly became noisy when they saw that Li Nianfan and the others were fine.

Daji said, “We took care of the female Ghost. You can relax, everyone. She won’t come up to hurt anyone again.”

“Really?”

They could not believe it, but it was probably true since Daji was fine. They instantly cheered. They all knelt to the floor and thanked them.

Qin Chuyue scoffed. She said, “You should thank all those poor girls that died before you!”

They walked out from Qingshan Village. Qin Chuyue asked curiously, “Mr. Li, where are you heading next?”

“Where am I heading next?”

Li Nianfan thought about it. He shook his head and said, “I don’t have a clear goal. I just married Daji, so we came out for a short sightseeing trip.”

“Wow, so romantic!”

Qin Chuyue looked envious. “A trip after the wedding. That’s an excellent idea!”

“Well, since you don’t have a goal, how about you come with us to defeat Ghosts?” Qin Chuyue looked excited.

Li Nianfan asked curiously, “Sure, I don’t see why not. Where are you going to defeat Ghosts?”

“The Xia Kingdom, of course!”

Qin Chuyue smiled and said, “According to my knowledge, the Emperor of the Xia Kingdom fell into a deep slumber. He cannot wake up. I think it must be the work of a Resentful Spirit!”

Li Nianfan was slightly taken aback. He asked in a weird tone, “Emperor of the Xia Kingdom? Zhou Yunwu?”

Qin Chuyue kept nodding, “Yes, yes, that’s him.”

Li Nianfan asked, “How do you know it’s the work of a Resentful Spirit?”

“It’s just a guess but it’s probably true.”

Qin Chuyue analyzed, “The Xia Kingdom’s blessed with Luck. Ghosts don’t dare to get close to them. However, there has been a surge of Resentful Spirits. That means that the Luck of the Xia Kingdom has weakened.

“Plus, the Emperor fell into a coma. It can’t be a coincidence.”

Li Nianfan nodded. He asked curiously, “You aren’t from the Area of the Gods, why do you care about the Xia Kingdom?”

“Duh? Since the beginning of time, heroes and villains don’t see eye-to-eye. If I let Resentful Spirits take over the Xia Kingdom, they’ll take over the Area of the Gods sooner or later. How can I claim to be righteous by then?”

Qin Chuyue looked prideful. She paused, then she exclaimed, “Moreover... The rewards are great!”

Qin Yun pouted. “Sis, you purely want to earn money.”

“Shut up, stinky brother. I won’t let you insult money!”

Qin Chuyue slapped Qin Yun on the back of his head. She said angrily, “Silver money defines the value of items. Everything makes sense because of money. Money carries the emotions of living beings. It relates to the life and death of living beings. It allows me to buy whatever I want!

“Do you know how it is to earn money?”
