Qin Manyun thought about her response carefully before saying with caution, “Mr. Li, Brother Zhou and the Holy Emperor still have matters to attend to. I’m afraid we’ll have to stay here for a while longer.”
Li Nianfan said nonchalantly, “Don’t worry, I understand.”
They helped him so much, treated him so politely, and even helped him get revenge. Of course, he did not mind this minor issue. After that incident, the way Daji looked at him had changed significantly. Perhaps she was impressed by him and was attracted by his manliness!
Li Nianfan felt good about himself. Standing up for his woman was a man’s duty!
Qin Manyun let out a long sigh of relief. Her heart was racing. It was apparent that the expert knew that Brother Zhou and the rest had gone away to destroy the Liu Family. That was why he said he understood. He could not wait for the entire Liu Family to be destroyed!
Li Nianfan shook his head and mumbled, “What a shame, I should’ve brought more jello with me.”
As he spoke, he took out a small, weirdly shaped, transparent bottle.
Click!
After uncovering it, he poured out a piece of jello from the bottle.
Li Nianfan had gotten into the habit of having a piece of jello every morning to quench his thirst!
As the jello appeared, Qin Manyun and the rest could feel the surrounding temperature lowering significantly, as if a chill was washing over their skin.
The Gu siblings stared at him blankly. Although their faces remained unperturbed, their hearts were racing rapidly.
‘If I’m not mistaken, this is the Thousand-Year Black Ice?’
‘Doesn’t this belong to the Linxian Palace?’
‘I remember asking for some a hundred years ago. After begging for a whole day and night, they merely gave me three droplets!’
Before they could react, Li Nianfan had already opened his mouth and popped the Thousand-Year Black Ice into his mouth. He chewed on it and swallowed it.
Li Nianfan looked at the rest and asked, “This jello tastes yummy. It’s chilly and refreshing with a good texture. Would you like some?”
They were all stunned for a moment before staggering backward. They then shook their heads and hands hastily. “Mr. Li, no need. We’ve eaten and we’re now too full to eat anything else.”
They felt their worlds spinning.
This was the Thousand-Year Black Ice! Of course, they wanted it!
But…how could they swallow it like Li Nianfan? They would have frozen into a popsicle!
It was good stuff but they did not have the ability to enjoy it!
Gu Ziyao glanced at Qin Manyun. The Linxian Palace did spend a lot trying to please this expert!
Suddenly, a thought flashed across her mind. ‘Mr. Li implied that he did not bring enough jello. Although we don’t have jello here in Azure Ville, we do have other things!’
She felt her heart beating rapidly as she repressed her excitement. She said politely, “Mr. Li, since you’re here, why don’t you come over and have a drink at our Azure Ville?”
“To your house?” Li Nianfan looked interested. After living in the Immortal Realm for so long, he still had not visited any sect and did not know how one looked like. The rain had stopped pouring. It was the best time to explore.
He was interested. He could not help himself. “I hope it won’t be too much trouble.”
The Gu siblings were feeling uneasy as they waited for his response. When they heard what he said, they replied hastily in delight, “Not at all! Not in the slightest!”
Luckily, the Gu siblings were so friendly!
Li Nianfan smiled. “If so, I’ll pay you a visit.”
Gu Ziyao smiled. “You’re too polite! Your analysis of ‘Journey to the West’ and your delicious dishes were truly impressive. It’d be our pleasure to host you at our Azure Ville.”
Li Nianfan smiled. Being friends with these people was so comforting! Nice!
They left the Immortal Guest House and went to the high tower. Instantly, a gust of refreshing air blew at their arrival. Li Nianfan could not help but take in a deep breath. He was pleased. Looking over, the emerald-colored trees were dancing in the wind. There was still dew dripping from the leaves like little fairies jumping down, adding a sparkle in the air.
The air that came after the rain was pleasant and refreshing. If he was still in his past realm, this would have been at least a five-star tourist attraction.
On both sides of the high tower, people started setting up their stalls once the rain had passed. Everyone welcomed the refreshing weather with pleasant smiles on their faces.
While walking along the high tower, Li Nianfan noticed that the flame chain had vanished. The four elders that were guarding the seal were gone, too. It seemed that after the rain, the black soil was no longer as black.
Li Nianfan asked in curiosity, “Huh? The sealing has been completed?”
Gu Ziyu said awkwardly, “Uhm…yes.”
Li Nianfan mumbled, “The movement was much smaller than I imagined. Didn’t expect it to be so simple.”
He did not expect that other than the little movement he watched, it ended just like that. Li Nianfan was expecting a bigger climax at the end, but all he heard was thunder and rain. Then, it was over!
It was not as exciting as the special effects from his previous realm.
However, his words were explosive to their ears, making their scalps itch as they smiled bitterly. What an expert. Even the Kraken from the Demon Realm came out, yet, he thought it was too simple? If it was slightly bigger, they would not have survived!
Right. The paper crane folded by the expert casually resolved the chaos. Of course, he would think it was a simple thing. Perhaps he would only feel something if the sky had fallen.
The world of a bigshot was indeed terrifying!
They did not dare to take a breath. They were on completely different levels. It was impossible to continue the conversation.
Gu Ziyao signaled to Gu Ziyu. He instantly picked up the cue and sprinted back to Azure Ville ahead of them.
The expert was visiting. Of course, everything had to be in place. They could not offend the expert. Regardless if it was the surroundings or the decorations, everything had to be set in place, especially the people. They had to be thoroughly briefed. If anyone looked at him blankly, the entire Azure Ville would be over!
This was the greatest opportunity but it came with great risk, too. They could not be careless.
Li Nianfan followed them to the side of the high tower. Gu Ziyao made a gesture and a snow-white crane appeared from thin air. The crane was massive. Looking at it from afar, it looked like a giant cloud in the sky flapping its wings. It flew with stability without causing a stir in the wind. It landed in front of them, one step away from the high tower.
“Mr. Li, after you.” Gu Ziyao made a polite gesture.
Li Nianfan took a deep breath and gradually walked onto it while holding Daji. In reality, he was scared, but since he had come this far, he had to bite the bullet and push through.
