I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

‘Silly me!

‘Of course, Mr. Li’s food won’t be ordinary! Of course, it’d be more than just delicious!

‘Of course, there’d be other benefits!

‘However, it came without any prior warning!

‘We’re merely ordinary men. How are we supposed to take it?’

No matter if it was the egg of the Firefinch Demon or honey from the Golden Bees, they had the benefits of cleansing the body and cells. In other words, they could flush out the toxins inside the body and renew the cells.

These benefits were not too great for the cultivators. Since cultivators had fewer impurities in their bodies, they did not have to detox. However, it was very effective for ordinary men!

This detox was able to give one baby-smooth skin. The body would improve to its peak, increasing one’s longevity. If they were to cultivate, it would be an easy journey.

However, this benefit was like a threat to Zhou Yunwu and the rest.

“Waa!” Zhou Yunwu made a sound. He felt a wave sinking in his stomach, rushing toward the anus and attacking its gate.

Oh no!

Swiftly, he took a deep breath and jumped. He forced it back in.

They must not fart in front of the expert. If they did not hold it in, they would be committing the crime of offending a Saint! They would be dead!

Perhaps this meal was a test from the expert.

Although it was delicious, it was full of mystery and it tested their willpower and perseverance!

He was an expert indeed! There was always an aim behind his actions, so shocking!

With that, Zhou Yunwu’s heart instantly sank. He must hold in!

His eyes somehow met with Rich’s, signalling him to hold it in!

Rich responded with a look of discomfort. Within a short amount of time, his forehead was covered in sweat. He wished he could cross his legs.

‘Oh, no! I’m reaching my limit!’

Li Nianfan could feel their bodies stiffening and trembling. He could not help asking, “King Zhou, what is it?”

“No—nothing…” Zhou Yunwu forced a smile and used up all of his will to say, “Mr. Li, I suddenly feel unwell. It seems like we can’t stay here any longer. Goodbye for now.”

Li Nianfan said, “If that’s the case, see you.”

This sentence sounded like a relief to the three of them. They let out a long sigh of relief. They merely had to hold it in for a little longer.

Just as they were about to exit the house, Li Nianfan suddenly said, “Wait up!”

Gasp!

The three of them jumped. Cold sweat dripped down.

They looked at Li Nianfan in despair.

Oh, no! Oh, no!

However, Li Nianfan turned around and went into one of the rooms inside the four-part architecture.

“That room…”

Daji and the Fire Phoenix exchanged a look. They were curious about the things inside that room.

When the door swung open, they could feel an extremely terrifying power that they were unclear of. The things in that room were probably more shocking than the backyard!

Li Nianfan claimed they were merely sundries. However, how could they be anything ordinary?

Although they were curious, the room door was always shut and Li Nianfan seldom went in. Hence, they had not been inside.

Ping, ping, ping, ping!

There were not many things in the room. They could hear him flipping over boxes.

Zhou Yunwu and the other two were suffocating! Their bodies gradually started to curl up and their faces became green. They felt as if their buttocks were no longer theirs!

Luckily, Li Nianfan did not let them wait for too long. Soon, he came out with a book.

Li Nianfan handed them the book and said, “My apologies, it’s quite messy in there. This book is regarding the art of war. I hope it can help you all.”

The book was worn out. The cover was wrinkly and full of dust. The pages also had water and rice stains.

“This… This is…” Zhou Yunwu received it with both of his hands. He squinted and saw that there were words written on the cover.

‘Six Secret Teachings’.

Li Nianfan explained, “This book of war is also known as ‘Jiang’s Six Secret Teachings’. There are two hundred and thirty-six chapters, eighty-one tactics, seventy-one commentaries, and eighty-one theories.

The Jiang the expert was speaking about was Jiang Ziya. This book compiled the essence of the art of war and it made a great impact on the battlefields.

Zhou Yunwu’s voice was trembling. He had even temporarily forgotten about the fart that was about to come out. He said politely, “Thank—thank you, Mr. Li.”

Although he did not know the exact information, this book was so antique and it was given by the expert. Of course, it was nothing ordinary. He had a feeling that this book was as valuable as the book of herbs and medical theories given by the expert.

Herbs, farming, casting, the art of war, and the governance of a nation.

The expert was indeed omnipotent. It seemed that he came here to preach to mankind!

‘I, Xia Kingdom, never believed in Demons, and I’ll never worship the Immortals. We merely hope to regard Mr. Li as our Holy Saint!’ Zhou Yunwu thought in his heart. He then bowed politely at Li Nianfan!

Rich and Meng Junliang did the same.

“King Zhou, don’t be so humble, it’s just a book.” Li Nianfan waved it off. “I won’t walk you out. Have a pleasant trip back.”

Li Nianfan’s words instantly reminded the three of them. Their bodies shivered and they said hastily, “Goodbye!”

Zhou Yunwu and the other two rushed out from the four-part architecture, their faces pale and gait twisted.

It was not until they had walked a couple feet away when Rich said with a hoarse voice, “It’s far enough. I can’t hold it in anymore! I can’t, it’s coming!”

Frrtt!

As he began, more farting sounds were heard. The sounds did not stop

Just like drums beating in the air repeatedly, the sounds came accompanied by moans of relief that were gradually fading.

Inside the four-part architecture.

When Daji and Fire Phoenix saw the book, they were stunned!

Although the book was extremely old, the cover was covered with a layer of thick golden glow. That was definitely Luck!

The book was…a Luck Treasure!

With that, the Luck in the Xia Kingdom would increase again!

These kinds of treasures were his so-called sundries?

What other mind-blowing treasures were kept in that room?

This was not their first time seeing Luck Treasure. The lantern was one, and it was something that was simply made by the expert. This was another Luck Treasure, and he gave it away just like this? Even back in ancient times, this was something rare!

They did not say anything as they followed Dragin to the backyard.

They walked to the pond in the centre.

The Fire Phoenix said calmly, “Old Dragon, I know you’re in there. Come on out.”

The pond was extremely calm without a trace of movement.

The Fire Phoenix continued, “Cut the pretence, Dragin told me everything. Don’t make us come down there.”

After a moment, the pond started to move. The water level rose and a Golden Dragon head peeked out halfway, glaring at Dragin angrily.

Dragin used her hands to cover up her face, too afraid to face him.

“Whatever, since we’re all bootlicking the expert, we’re a family,” the Golden Dragon said nonchalantly. He then reiterated, “Remember, don’t you ever tell anyone else that I’m here.”

The Fire Phoenix and Daji nodded at the same time. “We’re not that bored.”

Dragin promised genuinely, “Don’t worry, ancestor. I won’t tell anyone.”

The Golden Dragon said, “Why did you call me?”

Daji was curious. She asked, “You’ve been with the master the longest. Do you know what’s inside the utility room?”

“Not sure,” the Golden Dragon shook his head innocently. “I just want to continue living. I don’t notice anything else that doesn’t concern me.”

“However…” the Golden Dragon hesitated for a moment and said cautiously, “The expert’s fishing rod is very advanced. When he was fishing here, I was tempted by his fishing rod. Luckily he was only trying to bait a fish. If he was fishing for a dragon, I would have been baited.”

Daji said, “Earlier, my master brought out a Luck Treasure from the utility room. He gave it to the Human Sovereign.”

“Luck Treasure?” the Golden Dragon’s eyes bulged wide as his harsh breathing blew away the water. “Are you sure?”

The Fire Phoenix added, “It was indeed Luck Treasure.”

“This…this…”

Even though the Golden Dragon was unable to speak. Tears were rolling down his face as he said emotionally, “Luck Treasure… If my Dragons had a Luck Treasure back then, we wouldn’t have ended this way!”

Dragin did not expect her ancestor to cry. She could not help asking, “What’s a Luck Treasure?”

Daji frowned, “I’m not too sure, but I sense it’s very, very important.”

“Luck Treasure can suppress any Luck! This trait alone makes it very valuable!” The Golden Dragon took a deep breath and continued, “Luck Treasure’s like an amulet given by Heaven. As long as you have this amulet, the species or nation will stay glorified forever! Back in ancient times, the reason we, the Ancient Beasts, went downhill was that we didn’t have a Luck Treasure to suppress our Luck. So, our Luck went missing.”

The Fire Phoenix asked, “Luck needs to be suppressed?”

“When the main characters of the world swap places, a massive Natural Tribulation follows. A long time ago, the Dragons and Phoenixes were the main characters. Our Luck was all over the place. If we had something to suppress our Luck, at least our bloodline would’ve continued to flourish even when the Natural Tribulation occurred and we failed to become the new main characters. However, without the Luck Treasure, the Luck was eventually lost during the Natural Tribulation, taken away by the others. Our bloodline eventually died off,” the Golden Dragon said. “This is related to the general trend. When disasters come, having Luck is the key to survival. Only fools would work against this law.”

Daji could not help asking, “So possessing the Luck Treasure is equivalent to being undefeatable?”

“Not exactly. It just ensures the bloodline won’t go extinct. However, if one was attacked by a certain force, the bloodline could still vanish.” The Golden Dragon shook his head. “I tell you what, this world is very, very terrifying. One after another, a bigshot would be hidden here. They fight against each other, calculating each other’s moves with countless chess pieces. They attack when you’re unaware and you won’t know it until you’re dead!” he said as his head slowly sank back into the pond.

He was very scared. “Let’s talk about the Human Sovereign. When the nation’s prosperous, nobody would offend him. However, if someone drugged the Human Sovereign with pretty ladies, turning him into a violent and swayed Sovereign that causes boundless wars resulting in his people going against him, then the Luck of the Human Sovereign would be affected. When the Luck decreases, it would be easy for the other Kingdoms to destroy him.”

The Fire Phoenix could not help asking, “What happened during ancient times?”

“I can’t say it! Once I talk about it, the bigshots might notice me!” the Golden Dragon whispered. He said as he went back inside the pond, “Anyhow, it’s very scary! Hiding is the safest thing. Remember, don’t expose me!”

Daji cried out hastily, “Don’t hide yet! One more question!”

The Golden Dragon did not even look back.

Daji added, “It’s about our master!”

The Golden Dragon’s tail wiggled. He instantly turned back, “What is it?”

Daji said, “Our master said he wants to drink milk. Do you know what cow is black and white, and has milk?”

“Black and white cow that has milk…” The Golden Dragon hesitated for a moment. He said gradually, “I think I might know what the expert’s talking about.”
