Chapter 468: Bigshot. Please Stop Playing With Us
Crunch, crunch!
The crunchy Qiongqi meat naturally tasted delicious.
There were only crunching sounds in the four-part architecture.
The Jade Emperor and the others had oil all over their lips. They felt embarrassed and ashamed.
The expert was too kind to them. They said that you had to repay kindness from others with double the kindness. However, working for the expert was the complete opposite. He rewarded them with a sea of kindness!
‘So freaking generous.’
The expert already saved their lives multiple times. Aside from that, the Qiongqi case itself was not a hard task for everyone. After they caught it, the expert invited them to a Qiongqi meat feast. The two things were incomparable.
The meal made by the expert was extremely valuable. A thousand Qiongqi could not exchange for a piece of meat.
To be honest, capturing a Qiongqi for the expert was not worth inhaling some Chaos Spiritual Qi.
However, the expert still invited them to the Qiongqi meat feast. They naturally felt ashamed.
‘I have to work hard for the expert!’
The noises died down after half an hour. Everyone licked the oil from the corners of their mouths. They looked like they enjoyed it.
Li Nianfan waved and said, “Xiao Bai, bring us some pop soda. Fried food tastes best with soda.”
Yang Jing had to say, “Lord Saint, you’re too kind. Too kind. We don’t deserve it.”
He was always the fair one. He was not used to being rewarded for things he did not do.
Usually, he would not take advantage of other people. He would turn and leave. Perhaps he would find an opportunity in the future to thank them. However… Li Nianfan had massive rewards. He did not want to leave.
‘Sigh. I don’t know how I’m so shameless. But it’s because Li Nianfan has huge rewards!’
The Jade Emperor was ready to bootlick while he was eating. He took out the World Map and passed it to Li Nianfan. He smiled and said, “Oh yeah, Lord Saint. Last time, you said maps were inconvenient. We made a custom map for you. Take a look.”
Li Nianfan was instantly intrigued. He said excitedly, “Oh, let me see.”
Li Nianfan was naturally confused by the geography of the three realms.
Most Immortals did not fully understand it either. Ordinary people…could not figure out how to get out of a city.
He did not expect the Jade Emperor to remember his casual mention of the map. Li Nianfan instantly liked the Jade Emperor. He was too kind to him!
‘A nice man!’
The map was huge. He opened it. The map was divided into three parts—the Above Immortal Realm, the Immortal Realm, and the Underworld.
The Underworld was the simplest one. It was marked with Yama Hall, Naihe Bridge, the Reincarnation, and so forth. Li Nianfan had been to the Underworld so it was not very complex to him. It was like a travel map.
The Above Immortal Realm and the Immortal Realm were much more complex.
However, the map was made with Immortal powers. The images were lively. The mountains and rivers were very clear.
Apart from that, some areas were marked with Demons. Some areas had Water Demons.
Li Nianfan smiled and asked, “Emperor, is this the result of the guards’ surveillance?”
There were so many areas on the map. Naturally, someone had to observe the areas. The Heavenly Palace was ruling the three realms. So, the Jade Emperor ordered them to create the map.
“Ha. You’re wise, Lord Saint. It is.” The Jade Emperor stopped smiling. He said, “But the three realms are too big. There are a lot of areas that we couldn’t map out.”
“It’s good enough.” Li Nianfan waved it off and thanked him, “Thanks for everything, Emperor.”
The Jade Emperor hurriedly said, “No need to be so courteous, Lord Saint. The idea of the map was genius. It also helped the Heavenly Palace.”
They were polite to each other for a while. Li Nianfan could not wait to focus on the map again.
There was a Spiritual Mountain Buddhism labeled on the Westside at the Immortal Realm. He also saw the Fallen Town and the Fallen Immortal Mountain. He also saw the Xia Kingdom.
Soon, he stopped in his tracks when he saw something. It was such a familiar name.
‘Daughters Kingdom?
‘Gosh, it’s already the Absolute Era. Does the Daughters Kingdom still exist?’
The Daughters Kingdom was too famous. He had to go visit.
He thought about it and asked, “Emperor, is this the same Daughters Kingdom in ‘Journey to the West’?”
Nanan moved closer when she heard that.
It was the Daughters Kingdom. She was full of curiosity because she was a ‘Journey to the West’ fan.
The Jade Emperor nodded. Then, he explained, “The Daughters Kingdom is protected by the realm. It’s a special case. They’ve always been safe.”
“I see.” Li Nianfan nodded. Then, he added, “So interesting.”
He continued to look at the map. He saw a lot of familiar locations. For example, the Gaolao Village and the Flaming Mountains.
However, the places had probably changed by now. For example, the Flaming Mountains must have died down.
He continued to look at the map. Something made Li Nianfan jolt.
Wuzhuang Temple.
Li Nianfan immediately thought of the Ginseng Fruit.
The Ginseng Fruit was indescribable.
“It’ll bloom every three thousand years, bear fruits for another three thousand years. Then, it’ll ripen in another three thousand years. There will only be thirty Ginseng Fruits in ten thousand years. I heard that if you’re a lucky three-hundred-and-sixty-year-old, you’d live for forty-seven thousand years with one Ginseng Fruit.”
‘Damn. How could I forget about the Ginseng Fruit?’
Li Nianfan felt like his lifespan had always been his weakness. He did not want to cultivate at the moment. He wanted to catch up on his lifespan.
He drank the Phoenix blood and increased his lifespan by a thousand years. However, the cultivators around him had all lived for so many years. Li Nianfan instantly felt like a thousand years was not good enough.
He had nice connections with the Underworld. However, he did not want to be a ghost.
A Ginseng Fruit would give him 47,000 years to live. Damn…
Li Nianfan was immediately envious. It was so amazing.
He felt hopeful. He asked, “Are there Ginseng Fruits in the Wuzhuang Temple?”
The Jade Emperor troublingly shook his head, “Lord Saint, a lot of Spiritual Herbs and Spiritual Treasures were lost after the Absolute Era. The Ginseng Fruit Tree died.”
“Sigh. What a shame!”
Li Nianfan sighed and kept shaking his head. He was twitching from the lost opportunity. “That’s forty-seven thousand years, man! How can I live without it?!”
The Jade Emperor and the others felt triggered. They could not control their facial expressions. They hurriedly rubbed their eyes or covered their mouths at the same time. It was very difficult to keep up with his act.
‘Bigshot. Please, stop playing with us?’
‘Do you know what you have in your backyard?’
‘That’s the Flat Peach and the Yellow Plum! They’re Chaos Spiritual Fruits!’
‘Forty-seven thousand years? We believe you’ll live for forty-seven million years. Count on it.’
‘What are you sighing for?! Over Ginseng Fruit?’
Cough.
The Jade Emperor coughed and tried to sound calm. He said, “Don’t be so upset, Lord Saint. The Absolute Era’s over now. Maybe the Spiritual Herbs would grow again.”
“Really?” Li Nianfan was instantly energetic. “Hopefully. It’s good to have hope.”
He carefully put aside his map.
It was a great item. It could make his boring life so much more interesting.
‘I arrived at the legendary world. I should travel and have fun, right?’
He asked with curiosity, “Emperor, what’s the situation of the three realms? It must be difficult to create this map.”
“It’s alright. The realms are a bit disorderly because it was left to their devices for such a long time now. There are a lot of Demons that came out to cause havoc. The Heavenly Palace is lacking in staff. We can’t handle everything at once.”
The Jade Emperor was afraid that it would disturb the expert. He hurriedly added, “But don’t worry, Lord Saint. We’ve got it covered.”
“Good. Thanks for the hard word,” nodded Li Nianfan.
Li Nianfan was expecting the havoc. He already thought about it way before that.
The three realms were too huge. Plus, with cultivators, too! There were Demons and cultivators everywhere.
‘Can you imagine how chaotic and crazy it’d be when no one’s in charge? Pure havoc.’
Li Nianfan had run into demonic and evil forces before. Thankfully, he had a lot of bigshots around him to protect him. Other people would have ended up tragically.
It was kind of like giving everyone a gun when there were no laws.
The Heavenly Palace was rebuilt but it was unrealistic for them to manage the three realms in such a short time. The fastest way they could do that was to…recruit!
Li Nianfan touched his chin and started to groan.
Each recruit would mean less havoc and more justice.
When the majority belonged to justice, the realm would naturally run its course in an orderly manner.
“Emperor, I have an idea.”
Li Nianfan felt like he should help. He said, “You can recruit people on my behalf. I’m the Deluxe Merit Saint. I can reward them with Deluxe Merit if they join the Heavenly Palace. They might lose Deluxe Merit if they don’t join the Heavenly Palace.”
The Jade Emperor was overjoyed. He immediately said, “Nice. Thanks, Lord Saint!”
Cultivators were suckers for Deluxe Merit. All the cultivators would want to join the Heavenly Palace.
He had that idea before, too. However…he could not do it without the permission of Li Nianfan. Therefore, he had kept the idea at bay.
“If that’s the case, I should help out, too.”
Goddess Nuwa suddenly smiled. Then, she said, “Jade Emperor, I’ll occasionally preach to everyone in the Heavenly Palace and the Demons.”
Preaching from a Saint was a huge blessing. It was naturally very appealing.
Goddess Nuwa wanted to hit two birds in one stone.
The Absolute Era caused the eldritch world to lack experts. Their battle force was weakened. They naturally could not continue to weaken with the expert around.
Preaching could heighten their will to battle so that they could provide better services for the expert.
In other words, everything…revolved around the expert!
