Chapter 477: So Much Love From The Expert

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Nianfan brought Gao Yue into the town and immediately headed to the City God Temple without wasting any more time.
Although the City God had not met Li Nianfan before, Li Nianfan’s reputation as a Saint Lord was deeply embedded in their minds.
He opened the Ghost Door with great efficiency and led Li Nianfan into the Underworld without him needing to say even a single word.
They quickly arrived before the familiar yellow river.
Along the way, Gao Yue’s small face grew pale as she held her breath, trying not to breathe too loudly.
After all, she was a living human entering the eerie Underworld and without a doubt, very terrified.
However, she was determined and her emotions were very stable.
“In front of you is the Naihe Bridge and the elderly woman scooping soup is none other than Meng Po. The soup tastes good, would you like to try it? It’s free.” Li Nianfan introduced Gao Yue around with enthusiasm. However, her face became paler as she even looked away upon seeing the long queue of ghosts.
‘Is this the world after death?’
Before they went onto the Naihe Bridge, Black and White Impermanence instantly floated over from afar upon seeing Li Nianfan.
White Impermanence smiled. “Lord Saint, we meet again. What brings you here?”
Li Nianfan made a gesture. “In all honesty, I have a favor to ask from both of you.”
Black and White Impermanence exchanged looks as their faces turned serious. They no longer dared to delay further. “Lord Saint, please, tell us what it is!”
Li Nianfan went straight to the point. “I’m here for the soul you brought away a few days ago.”
Gao Yue’s face straightened in uneasiness. She did not expect her father to be taken away by Black and White Impermanence.
Black Impermanence said, “Master Gao?”
Li Nianfan nodded and said, “Exactly, this is Master Gao’s daughter. I brought her here to let them meet one last time.”
Meng Po, who was serving the soup by the side, put the ladle down and said, “It isn’t difficult. Let me bring you over.”
Li Nianfan thanked her. “Thank you, Empress.”
He had been trying to bribe the Underworld’s staff and profited after all! Especially finding out that Meng Po was the Houtu Empress who Li Nianfan deeply respected.
Therefore, everything should be alright with Meng Po’s approval.
“Haha, Lord Saint’s too polite.” Meng Po had a friendly smile on her face before speaking to an Oni by the side. “You’ll take charge of serving the soup. Be nice and don’t drink it again!”
It could not be helped.
Ever since Lord Saint changed the soup’s recipe, eight Onis had to be sent away just within a few months! Therefore, she dared not pass the ladle to someone else.
The incident further elevated the Underworld’s lack of manpower!
Meanwhile, inside the Yama Main Hall.
A soul was kneeling in the hall with grief shown on his face—begging for forgiveness.
He was Master Gao.
The General of the Bloody Sea sat in the hall and coldly said, “How daring of you, Gao Guangliang! I tried talking nicely to you since you’ve helped many people and gained some merits. Don’t accuse me of being heartless if you’re still unwilling to reincarnate!”
It was a simple matter as Master Gao would reincarnate into a wealthy family and enjoy a blessed life. It was a happy ending.
However, he was unwilling to reincarnate. Were it not for his special status, they would have forced him to consume Meng Po’s soup and send him away.
Gao Guangliang kept bowing his head and said, “Please, I have a wish! Please, allow me to send my daughter a dream and tell her something. Please, fulfill my wish.”
“How dare you! How many of the dead get their wishes fulfilled? The Underworld would be so messed up if everyone was like you!” Red glints could be seen in the General of the Bloody Sea’s eyes as he scoffed, “You’re dead, so the matters above no longer have anything to do with you! This is the Underworld’s law that everyone must obey! Someone! Come and drag him to drink Meng Po’s soup!”
Gao Guangliang was terrified and wailed, “Please, no! Please, fulfill my wish!”
He was depressed and kept bowing his head while struggling with the last hint of hope.
He would be completely cut off from his previous life if he drank the soup!
He only came to realize many things after death, but…it was too late. He truly still had words to say.
Unfortunately, there was no use in him struggling as he was dragged out while listlessly saying, “Daughter, I’ve made a mistake and wronged you!”
Meanwhile, Black and White Impermanence rushed over with Li Nianfan, stunned upon seeing that.
If Li Nianfan did not know any better about the Underworld, he would have thought a drama was playing in front of him.
Gao Yue’s body jolted as tears welled up in her eyes. She said in a surprised and uneasy, trembling voice, “F—Father?”
The despaired Gao Guangliang felt like he was struck by lightning as he jolted and gradually looked up.
“Yue? Is that you? Yue!?”
Gao Guangliang was completely stunned. There were no tears in his eyes as he was just a soul at that moment. Otherwise, he would have cried a river as he said in disbelief, “Am I dreaming?”
Gao Yue excitedly said, “Father, it’s really me! I met someone who willingly brought me to the Underworld to meet you.”
“Alright, both of you should greet the General of Bloody Sea before speaking further with each other,” said White Impermanence.
He waved and asked the Onis to release Gao Guangliang.
The General of Bloody Sea saw them and instantly walked over upon seeing Li Nianfan. He greeted upon arrival, “Greetings to Lord Saint.”
Li Nianfan returned the gesture, “Greetings to the General of Bloody Sea.”
The General of Bloody Sea had partially guessed the reason for his arrival and smiled. “I wonder what brings you here, Lord Saint?”
Meng Po said, “Lord Saint would like us to let Master Gao meet his daughter for one last time.”
Li Nianfan awkwardly made a gesture. “I’m sorry to ask as I know this isn’t how it usually works…”
“Hey, don’t say that. We don’t have many rules here.” The General of Bloody Sea smiled generously as he waved it off. “It’s a small matter, a small matter! Let them meet, it’s okay.”
On one side, Gao Guangliang stared at them with widened eyes. He recalled the General of Bloody Sea mentioning there were strict rules in the Underworld!
Was that it?
However, he was no fool. There was no need to correct the general as he would not understand the bigshot’s world.
Li Nianfan said. “Miss Gao, just speak to your father if there’s anything.”
Gao Yue emotionally said, “Thank you, Mr. Li.”
Thereafter, she went to the side with Gao Guangliang and conversed for one last time.
Gao Guangliang immediately said, “Yue, it’s my fault. I’ll approve of you and Boo being together! Your happiness is still the most important matter here.”
“Thank you, Father,” said Gao Yue who broke into joyful tears in excitement before she paused suspiciously. “If so, Boo didn’t harm you?”
“Of course, not.” Gao Guangliang shook his head and sighed. “The person who killed me had a bull’s horn in hand and wanted to frame Boo. I regretted it very much back then. Why did I stop both of you from getting together? I would’ve wronged you if they succeeded in framing him! How can I die in peace!”
“Father, they almost succeeded. Luckily, Mr. Li spoke up and stopped it!” Gao Yue was very grateful toward Li Nianfan. She then said in a low voice, “Father, do you know who killed you?”
Gao Guangliang said, “He was too careful and had his face covered. However, he should be a high-level cultivator. I think he came from Gaolao Village.”
Gao Yue could not help asking, “Father, is there really an Immortal Relic in our village?”
Gao Guangliang thought for a moment. “Maybe… Maybe not.”
Meanwhile…
Li Nainfan was bored and chatted with the others to maintain his connections.
He sincerely thanked them, “Thank you so much.”
“Lord Saint’s too polite. We’re all friends!” The General of Bloody Sea laughed before waving. “Hurry, ask them to bring some tea over.”
“Cough, no need. I brought wine.” Li Nianfan was revolted by the food in the Underworld, so he took out his golden purple gourd and shook it. “I’ve improved the red wine. Would all of you like to try it?”
“Can…can we?” The General of the Bloody Sea gulped and said, “I look like a fool! Lord Saint’s drinks are the best, of course. Thank you for treating us!”
“All of you have helped me a great deal! Don’t be so polite!”
Instantly, Li Nianfan smiled nonchalantly and poured a glass of wine for each of them.
All of them got emotional upon receiving the wine.
Lord Saint was too nice. He had already helped them so much, hence it was a must to work for him!
However, he would never ask for a favor without reciprocating in kind. They provided such minimal help and yet Lord Saint rewarded them with such a huge opportunity.
That only made them…further indebted to him! They had no way of repaying him anymore.
‘We’re just a bunch of ants! How can we ever repay him? What a fool! We only need to work for Lord Saint!’
The crowd had that thought in their minds. They knew their circumstances, that they could no longer afford to repay…
After being emotional, they resumed their focus on the wine glasses.
All of them gasped as their pupils dilated.
Especially Meng Po, who was more knowledgeable and knew what it was. Her small hand trembled and almost spilled the wine. Luckily she regained her composure just in time.
If she did spill the wine—even only a drop—her heart would ache so much that she would have chopped her hand off!
Although she appeared calm on the surface, her heart was like the stormy sea!
‘T-this…
‘Wine made from Chaos Spiritual Root?!’
Chaos Spiritual Root! Their eldritch world had no way of producing such a thing as the Chaos Spiritual Root was way beyond their world!
Even the Heaven of Eldritch or Hongjun Dao Zu would never have gotten hold of Chaos Spiritual Root, much less herself!
On the other hand, wine made from Chaos Spiritual Root was quietly laying in front of her.
It was too unreal! It was terrifying!
‘Perhaps my cultivation could continue even quicker with this wine. In fact…since the Underworld was rebuilt by the Expert, I have a chance to finally escape the Underworld’s restriction…’
Meng Po looked extremely emotional as she looked at the wine in front of her with a dry throat.
The Expert loved them so much! So vast! So great! They were unworthy of his love!
Of course, the others did not know about the Chaos Spiritual Root’s existence. However…they could feel that although it was also called ‘wine’, it was different from the past wines they had!
A strong craving overwhelmed their bodies as they knew the wine would benefit them greatly!
The previous wine they had was made of Spiritual Roots. At that moment…perhaps it was made from using something beyond Spiritual Roots? Something from beyond their world?
Gasp…
Their scalps were tingling in terror!
The Expert had elevated it again!
‘Was this the joy of accompanying a bigshot? What a bigshot! So touching!’
They were delighted and enjoyed the taste so much the moment they sampled the wine. It was a joyous and exciting experience.
Li Nianfan smiled upon seeing them loving the wine. “Come on, don’t be polite and have more.”
Meng Po jolted. “M-more?”
It was a Godly Wine! Even one drop was already a priceless opportunity, let alone one whole glass! She dared not even dream about it, and yet…she could have another glass?
How unreal it was!
Li Nianfan found it weird. “Unless one glass is already enough? You don’t want more?”
Meng Po immediately snapped back to reality and quickly said, “Yes, yes, yes. I want more. Thank you, Lord Saint.”
The group of them were chatting and drinking wine. After a moment, the father and daughter gradually walked over upon finishing their talk.
“You’re done?”
The General of Bloody Sea unwillingly put down his wine glass in disappointment.
Why did they not talk longer? Did they not see him drinking wine and talking to Lord Saint? Every second spent with him was priceless!
However, they kept those thoughts to themselves and they dared not reveal them.
They must not get greedy and dare to have any impure desires, especially in front of the Expert.
Gao Yue and her father went on their knees, bowing with gratitude. “Yes, thank you to everyone here for giving us an opportunity.”
“We did this for Lord Saint,” said the General of Bloody Sea. He continued in an official tone, “If you’re done, don’t waste any more time. Go on and reincarnate.”
Gao Guangliang nodded. “Alright!”
Gao Yue’s eyes reddened but she seemed better than before. She then said to Li Nianfan, “Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Mr. Li. I’ve nothing to give you in return. Please, let me kneel before you.”
Li Nianfan quickly helped her up and said, “Miss Gao, don’t. I ought to do this.”
He then told her about the ‘Journey to the West’ story and the indirect harm caused to her family. He would feel bad if he did not help her.
After that, he stood up and said to the Black and White Impermanence, “We should return to the ordinary realm since this is now solved. Goodbye.”
“Lord Saint, we’ve nothing to do and we’re bored. Why don’t we send you off?” Black and White Impermanence stood up. They did not know how to pay Li Nainfan back, so they could only treat him with the utmost respect and provide good services.
Li Nianfan smiled. “Thank you.”
