I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

“Blackie, slow down.”

Li Nianfan chased after Blackie who had sprinted into the skyship, looked around, and sniffed around energetically.

“Don’t mess up other people’s skyship!” Li Nianfan said unhappily as he rushed into the skyship. “You silly dog, I’m not bringing you out next time.”

As expected, Blackie laid next to Li Nianfan obediently. He acted pitiful while whining.

“Sorry everyone, this dog’s always like that. So disobedient.” Li Nianfan angrily patted Blackie. “Blackie, hurry up and apologize!”

“No need, no need.”

Yao Mengji instantly went pale. He was terrified. He quickly waved it off.

Apology from the Lord Dog? Who could handle that?!

The skyship would be honored to be destroyed by the Lord Dog.

Blackie stopped but Dragin was being naughty on the other side, too.

She kept touching and playing with anything she found inside the skyship. She was curious. Finally, her attention was grabbed by a big pearl that was at the center of the skyship.

“What a small pearl.” She pouted. She raised her wrist and out came a pearl five times the size of the skyship’s pearl.

The pearl shined brightly like it was a big light bulb. The skyship’s pearl was dim and dull in comparison to the shiny huge pearl.

Yao Mengji and the others were instantly intrigued. Their eyes almost popped out of their sockets from staring so hard.

The pearl was not a powerful Immortal Item but it was extremely expensive and precious. The pearl they had in the skyship was from a Clam Demon that they got lucky with. Dragin had such a huge pearl. What kind of Clam Demon did she get it from?

Cross Tribulation Realm? Mahayala Realm?

Yikes—

Scary.

“Dragin, why are you so impolite?”

Li Nianfan was baffled. Then, he said, “Brother Yao, this brat’s family is in the seafood business. She’s still young and immature. Please, forgive her.”

How dare she show off to other people while she was on their turf? What a silly kid.

Brother Yao waved it off and smiled. “Never mind, never mind.”

Seafood business?

She had status in the ocean?

The people around the expert were indeed extraordinary. Thankfully, he did not offend her.

Li Nianfan looked at that big pearl and was slightly intrigued. “What a big Luminous Pearl. Why didn’t you bring it out sooner? It would be so convenient as a lightbulb.

“Is it voice-controlled? Dim the brightness.”

The pearl did not react at all.

Li Nianfan was instantly disinterested.

Yao Mengji showed Li Nianfan his room. “Mr. Li, this is where you can stay.”

“Thanks.”

Li Nianfan nodded and looked around. He complimented, “Brother Yao, this skyship looks more luxurious than the last time. Did you revamp it?”

Yao Mengji replied in a respectful voice, “Just a small renovation. What do you think, Mr. Li?”

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “It’s fantastic, of course.”

Yao Mengjji let out a sigh in relief. As long as the expert was satisfied.

It was worth clearing out all the treasures in the Linxian Palace. He moved it all into the skyship.

He smiled and said, “Mr. Li, I’ll fire up the skyship this instant. Rest well.”

“Nah, let’s do it together.”

Everyone was at the deck. Yao Mengji cast spells and the skyship started to glow.

It was not very loud. The skyship shined and levitated steadily. Then, it took off.

The Fallen Immortal Mountain was far away, growing smaller and smaller in Li Nianfan’s eyes. He even saw the Fallen Town. The people in the Fallen Town moved as if they were ants. It gradually disappeared.

Then, Li Nianfan could see white clouds underneath him.

Li Nianfan knew the basics about the Cultivators Convention through conversation.

The convention was not a huge event. It would usually be held in the Immortal Realm, and it was for the local cultivators to share their experiences.

They could trade their opinions, treasures, Immortal Items, and shop for Spiritual Medicine and more.

If cultivators were secretive and closed-off, cultivation would not last for long.

Nanan was at the Golden Lotus Sect of the Northside. The convention was held in the Northeast area at a town named Chuchen Town.

Li Nianfan watched the view for a while. Then, he started getting slightly bored so he went back to his room.

Dragin stumbled after him and asked excitedly, “Brother, continue the story for me. Did Chenxiang save his mother in the end?”

Li Nianfan chuckled and laid on the bed. He yawned and said, “My legs are slightly sore.”

Dragin immediately understood. She quickly walked over to Li Nianfan and gave him a foot massage. “Is this okay? Is the pressure hard enough?”

“Yeah, it’s about right. Keep it that way,” Li Nianfan nodded satisfyingly. Then, he said, “Chenxiang found out that in order to save his mother, he had to defeat God Jiro. So, he needed the Buddha of Victorious Strife to be his Master. He went through a lot of difficulties and suffering. He knelt outside Buddha’s door for a long while…”

Time slipped by. It was soon night time.

Qin Manyun prepared food for Li Nianfan. It was not as delicious as the food Li Nianfan could make but there was a nice variety.

After eating and drinking, Li Nianfan stood on the deck to bathe in the moonlight. He enjoyed the beautiful night view and went back to his room. He yawned and was ready to sleep.

The realm was extra quiet in the dark. The skyship flickered like a star in the sky, flying at high speed.

Yao Mengji stood at the deck wearing a serious demeanor. He stared straight ahead while steering carefully. He was afraid that there would be an accident because of his momentary neglect.

The skyship did not need manual steering unless it was necessary. However, he did not dare to be lazy.

Qin Manyun and the Holy Emperor accompanied him by his side.

Suddenly, they heard maniacal laughter from afar along with the howling wind.

“Bold maniac, how dare you trespass into the forbidden land of my sect? Die!”

Cling clang—

The sounds of a battle disrupted the quiet night. Yao Mengji and the others were alarmed, afraid that it would disrupt the expert.

Thankfully, the skyship was extremely fast and the commotion was left behind.

However, they did not get a chance to relax. Right in front of them, two figures were chasing after one another mid-air.

The flying swords clashed. It was a heated fight.

“I suffered and waited for you for sixteen years, but you have a sixteen-year-old kid. You scum, I must kill you!”

“Lady, relax. You’ve got the wrong guy. That’s my twin brother.”

Yao Mengji did not look happy at all. He used his powers to speed up and they flew by quickly.

However, someone else was fighting in front of them again. The noise from the explosions was deafening.

“It’s been three years. I’m here today to redeem myself from all my past humiliations! Whatever pain you’ve all imposed on me, I’m going to pay it back tenfold!”

Boom!

Yao Mengji and the others looked infuriated.

Yao Mengji looked inside the skyship. He asked with a serious face, “What’s going on tonight? Can’t they give it a rest? Don’t they know the expert’s resting?”

“Ignorant, how ignorant!” The Holy Emperor shook his head. “How about this? I’ll clear out the battles in front of us. I’ll go and propose to them to fight their battles another day. We can’t let it disturb the expert.”

Qin Manyun nodded and said, “Good idea. Sorry for the trouble, Holy Emperor.”

The Holy Emperor immediately flew off.

The night was once again peaceful. Yao Mengji and Qin Manyun both sighed in relief.

As the night went dark, they jumped anxiously.

Buzz!

The peaceful Spiritual Qi of the realm suddenly started to boil.

Then, a powerful aura appeared out of nowhere. They were distressed. They held their breaths.

The Holy Emperor returned. He looked frantic as he announced, “There seems to be an Immortal who has chosen to descend into the realm right in front of us! Stop! Stop the skyship now!”

The horizon was suddenly golden, painted by the gold streaks of light that were shining down from the clouds.

A golden door appeared out of thin air.

Qin Manyun went pale. She hurriedly said, “Master, turn around. Hurry up and turn the skyship around!”

“I know.” Yao Mengji quickly cast spells. He was sweating from being frantic.

The skyship slowed down and started to turn.

The three of them stared dead straight at the Heavenly Gates. They were nervous wrecks, eyes filled with distress.

What was going on? Could they not travel in peace?

Buzz!

The golden light grew brighter. Then, a figure speedily flew out from the small opening of the golden gates.

The figure was slim and seemed to be panicking. The figure looked like it was desperate to flee. He flew straight toward the skyship without thinking.

Two more figures flew out of the gates, too. They looked like they were chasing that figure.

Both sides used their powers from time to time. Their attacks created a back-and-forth effect. They were clearly in a heated battle.

“I feel like someone’s against me.”

Yao Mengji was utterly baffled. He was mentally exhausted. What an unlucky night.

The Immortals were fighting. How could his skyship handle that? More importantly, what if they disturb the expert who was resting inside the skyship? That would be a huge mistake!

He stared at the three Immortals. Then, he suddenly raised his eyebrows. He was taken aback when he saw the fleeing figure.

“Mas…Master?!”

The fleeing figure noticed him on the skyship, too. He was surprised. He exclaimed, “Mengji? What are you doing here? Hurry up and run, Mengji!”

‘What am I doing here?

‘I’m supposed to be the one asking that question, not you!

‘What can I run from?! The ones chasing you are Immortals!

‘What’s going on with you? Why are you being hunted by two Immortals?!

‘You could’ve gone somewhere else, but you brought them here to your descendants? Were you perhaps hoping that your student could cover for you? You wretched being!’
