“You understand?”
Lin Mufeng and Old Man Sun looked at the Chess Fanatic in unison.
“Huh? Tell us!” Old Man Sun said curiously.
“Actually, I happen to have this attitude from time to time as well.” The Chess Fanatic smiled. “As a cultivator like me and you, no one is born as an Immortal. We were all born in the shell of an ordinary man. I’ve always thought to myself that if I manage to become an Immortal one day, I could bring an end to my busy life. Then, I’d be able to go back to being an ordinary man and live a carefree life, mingling among the ordinary folk and enjoy the rest of my life.”
“You’re right! You’re right!” Old Man Sun nodded in realization. “If so, when one returns to his basics and chooses to live as an ordinary man, he’d feel disturbed and upset if someone else exposes his identity.”
It would be the same as meeting the wealthiest man. If he said he was merely an ordinary man who had no interest in money, would it be wise to call him out?
No! It would not! One would have no other choice but to go along with the act!
Lin Mufeng said with a low voice, “Alright. Stop talking now. It’s right up front.”
Old Man Sun and the Chess Fanatic shivered. Their breathing became shallow as they could feel their limbs getting cold. It was as if they were students who were about to enter the exam hall—uneasy and nervous.
“Relax. The expert’s friendly,” Lin Mufeng comforted.
With that, he walked forward and called out with respect, “Is Mr. Li home?”
Click!
Xiao Bai opened the door. After looking at the three of them, it said, “Welcome!”
So this was the Spiritual Robot? Terrifying!
Instantly, Old Man Sun and the Chess Fanatic jolted slightly, as if the Spiritual Robot could read their minds. Hurriedly, they flashed the friendliest smiles they had ever given in their entire lives.
Lin Mufeng said respectfully, “Hello, Xiao Bai. I’m Lin Mufeng, a friend of Mr. Li’s.”
“I remember you,” Xiao Bai nodded and opened the door. “Please, come in.”
“Thank you.”
The three of them walked into the four-part architecture cautiously. The decorations of the four-part architecture did not change much over the last few days, but somehow, it felt like there were a lot of changes.
Upon entering the four-part architecture, they could smell a tangy fragrance. It was not the smell of ordinary flowers but instead, it was the smell of herbs!
The three of them jolted, feeling refreshed. They could not help glancing over to see the Spiritual Herbs and elixirs. Their hearts quickened.
The growth of the herbs was beyond imagination. It was almost as if they were all fighting over the expert’s attention, unleashing their tangy fragrance.
In fact, Lin Mufeng even noticed that there was a Spiritual Herb that was never supposed to bloom, but it bloomed anyway…
These plants certainly knew what they were doing!
Lin Mufeng suddenly felt as if he had no place in this house. This was out of his league. Completely out of his league!
Li Nianfan was playing chess with Daji. When he saw Lin Mufeng, he smiled. “Hey! Brother Lin’s here! Welcome!
“Greetings to Mr. Li, greetings to Miss Daji.” Lin Mufeng was eager to hand over the treasure. He said, “Mr. Li, I heard you needed a refrigerator the other day. I happened to come across one recently so I brought it to you!”
“Eh? The refrigerator’s here?” Li Nianfan’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.
“Right here!” Lin Mufeng took out the take-away container and handed it to Li Nianfan. “I also brought along the container from the other day.”
Li Nianfan was truly impressed by Lin Mufeng!
‘Look at him! How polite!
‘He actually brought back the one-time-use container after using it! Also, I briefly mentioned the refrigerator the other day. Not only did he remember it, he even brought one all the way here!
‘I used to think that the Immortal Realm was full of lurking dangers! Perhaps I was mistaken!’ Li Nianfan thought to himself as he accepted the container. He looked at the hexagonal crystal inside.
The crystal was very beautiful. It sparkled with an azure glow as if it was surrounded by a halo—dazzling and sparkling!
Click!
Li Nianfan uncovered the container.
“Mr. Li…” Lin Mufeng was just about to warn Li Nianfan about the chill coming from the Ice-Crystal, but Li Nianfan already took out the crystal and placed it in his hand to observe.
Instantly, Lin Mufeng swallowed back his words.
He thought too much! Who was he? Did he even need to be reminded?
The crystal was cool to the touch. Li Nianfan placed it on his palm and instantly felt a coolness coming from it, making him feel refreshed. However, he frowned slightly. “The temperature is a little too high. It can’t be used as a refrigerator!”
As he spoke, he felt the crystal’s temperature drop, exuding a piercing cold.
“Nice!” Li Ninfan was delighted instead of shocked. “I should’ve realized earlier that this is likely to be another voice-controlled device! That’s great. Now it can be used as a refrigerator as well as an air-conditioner! Nice! Very nice!”
Instantly, he placed the refrigerator on the rockery beside the stream. He ordered, “Lower the temperature!”
Click! Click!
A cold breeze came by. The stream started to freeze into ice.
Lin Mufeng and the other two stared at the Ice-Crystal who was on its best behavior, trying to impress the expert. In unison, the three of them jeered at it in their minds, ‘Boot licker!’
The Ice-Crystal was so arrogant just a moment ago. Yet, when it came to the expert, it instantly pretended to be obedient and ordinary? Ew!
“Almost there!” Li Nianfan looked at his refrigerator with delight. He said to Lin Mufeng, “Thank you, Brother Lin!”
“It’s just a small matter, you’re being too polite, Mr. Li,” Lin Mufeng said.
He was very excited! It seemed that the expert was very pleased with his performance. Good job! He was not far from the peak of his life!
“Right, this container is a one-time use item. You don’t have to return it to me. It’s useless.” Li Nianfan tossed the container aside. He did not seem to care about it at all.
Lin Mufeng and the other two’s breathing became harsh. They stared at the container, wide-eyed. It was as if they had lost their minds.
Useless?
One-time use?
This was a precious treasure! This might as well be the best item to store special treasures! He said it was only for one-time use?
This was…too extravagantly wasteful!
Was this the world of a bigshot?
Lin Mufeng’s heart throbbed vigorously. He gritted his teeth, hastily keeping the container that was tossed aside.
‘I’ll keep your trash!’
“Ah… Mr. Li.” Lin Mufeng recomposed himself. “These two are my friends. This man is Sun Qianshan, and this man is known as the Chess Fanatic. He’s a big fan of chess.”
Old Man Sun and the Chess Fanatic greeted, “Greetings to Mr. Li.”
“Oh? You play chess?” Li Nianfan’s eyes sparkled as he looked at the Chess Fanatic. Indeed, he seemed like a well-cultured man. Li Nianfan was excited. “Why don’t we play a game?”
Finally, there was someone who played chess! This would be quite interesting!
The Chess Fanatic was beyond delighted! He said hurriedly, “Of course! It’d be my pleasure!”
Judging by his excitement, this cultivator was likely to be a huge fan of chess!
Li Nianfan was excited. He sat face-to-face with the Chess Fanatic and set up the board.
Li Nianfan made a gesture to the Chess Fanatic. “You’re the guest. Please, go ahead with the white.”
The Chess Fanatic knew he was far from the expert’s level, so he did not reject the offer. He picked up a white piece and looked at the board…
