They picked up the pace. Soon, a simple and elegant four-part architecture appeared in sight.

Qin Manyun announced, “We’re here.”

Gu Changqing’s heart throbbed. Although he had met the expert before, this was the first time he visited his place. It was impossible not to be nervous.

The jade pendant on his chest started to flash. It was apparent that Gu Yuan was uneasy.

This was the man who could paint a Third-legged Golden Crow to life! Even the sect master of the Azure Ville was a nobody in front of him. If this was the Immortal Land, even Gu Yuan would not stand a chance to meet him!

Now he was about to...visit him?

So nervous! So uneasy! So exciting!

The Firefinch Demon merely glanced at it with a judgemental look. The look of disdain worsened.

This four-part architecture was boring and ordinary, far from the houses of the Immortals. So bad!

However, the couplet by the door was not as bad. It was as if some Insights were circulating it. It was a not-too-bad door.

‘Did they think this couplet would be able to win my heart? No way!’

[I Came From Mortal Realm, Seeking For Longevity.]

‘This isn’t impressive enough! I have the bloodline of the Phoenix. Even if I don’t cultivate, my lifespan is two thousand years. If I cultivate slightly, I can easily live forever!

‘One has to seek longevity? Aren’t we all born to live forever?’

The Firefinch Demon was very arrogant.

Qin Manyun looked at the four-part architecture. She took a deep breath and asked, “Is Mr. Li home?”

She was answered with a long silence.

Qin Manyun paused. Then, she continued, “Mr. Li, it’s me, Manyun.”

However, there was no response.

Inside the four-part architecture, Blackie was snoring soundly. It did not even bother opening its eyes. Xiao Bai was doing the house chores. ‘Master left for so many days and brought back a bunch of laundry expecting me to hand wash them.

‘Sigh, poor me!’

Outside, Yao Mengji sighed. “It seems that the expert isn’t home. Why don’t we go back first?”

Even so, nobody moved. None of them intended to go back.

Gu Changqing said, “Brother Yao, save it. Now’s the time to test our sincerity. I’ll be waiting here. Nothing can make me leave!”

Yao Mengji smiled. “Alright then, let’s wait here.”

They both exchanged a look and scowled at each other in their minds. ‘Bootlicker!’

By the side, the Firefinch Demon watched them as they waited politely outside the gate. It had a look of disdain on its face.

Ha! Idiots!

It then looked at its surroundings and the four-part architecture. It sharpened its gaze.

Nobody in the world had ever kept it outside a gate. Never in the past, and most certainly, never in the future!

‘Expert? I’ll meet you and see how legit you actually are!’

With that, it flapped its wings and turned into an orb of light, shooting toward the four-part architecture.

Gu Changqing was still mentally fighting with Yao Mengji. Suddenly, he felt his shoulder getting lighter but before he could react, the flaming red shadow had entered the four-part architecture.

This...this...this...

Gu Changqing was dumbstruck. He felt his scalp exploding with all his hairs standing. Without hesitation, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood to activate his quickest speed to run to the shadow.

Rush!

However, they were too close to the four-part architecture. As he was spitting out blood, the Firefinch Demon had gone out of sight.

Yao Mengji was shocked. His mind went blank as he shivered in fear. He scolded with a trembling voice, “Gu Changqing! What did you do!? Why’d you let that stupid bird fly in?!”

It was over! Over! Over!

The bird barged into the residence of the expert! It was the end of the world! They were so dead!

He was about to cry as his face flushed red. “Gu Changqing! I’m about to be killed because of you!”

Qin Manyun was already crying anxiously. She stood by the side, not knowing what to do.

Gu Changqing scowled. “This is none of my business. The stupid bird flew in itself! I knew the stupid bird isn’t reliable!”

“Isn’t the stupid bird yours? Isn’t it your bird?”

Yao Mengji continued mumbling illogically, “I shouldn’t have brought you here. I didn’t hurt you. Why are you trying to kill me with your bird!?”

“What now? What now?” Gu Changqing was anxious. His head was buzzing. “Grandpa, what now?”

The bird had gone in and they could not follow behind it. Hoping for the bird to come back out was impossible. It was an impossible situation!

“There’s only one solution right now,” Gu Yuan said after a long pause.

Gu Changqing was delighted. “Please, tell us, Grandpa.”

“Ditch the soldier and keep the king!”

Gu Yuan continued, “This has nothing to do with me. I don’t know anything. My good grandson, hang on there. I’ll build a monument for you and crown you as the hero of the Gu Family!”

Gu Changqing cursed instantly!

“Grandpa, once the expert blames us, I’ll sell you out right away! Don’t you blame me. It’s your bird after all. You have to take the responsibility.”

Gu Yuan panicked, the jade pendant was shaking. “What? My bird? Don’t you make things up! It’s clearly your bird!”

“Nonsense! Your bird!”

“Yours!”

Even Yao Mengji joined in. “It’s your bird! This has nothing to do with me anyway!”

...

While they were arguing outside, the inside of the four-part architecture was as peaceful and quiet as ever.

The Firefinch Demon flew too fast. It passed through the inner yard and went straight to the backyard.

Upon entering the backyard, it jolted. It felt that it was harder flapping its wings as they became heavier. The bird had a look of shock on its face.

“The Insights here are so...thick!”

The Insights were so strong in here that the law of nature seemed to have been messed up, forming a whole new and unique world.

It had no choice but to rest on a tree.

How could the Insights be so strong here?

This was not possible even in the Immortal Land!

If a genius came here, he would only have to cultivate for a hundred years before Immortalizing!

Even a noob would be able to turn into a dragon living in these conditions!

What...kind of Godly place was this?

It saw the corner of an ice mountain and the look of disdain disappeared on its face. In exchange, a look of respect slowly appeared.

Could it be...this expert was legit?

No way! How could such a thing happen in this ordinary realm?

Its heart throbbed as it looked around cautiously. Its gaze then transfixed on an apple not far away. Swiftly after, a strange fruity scent rushed into its nose.

The fruits grown in such conditions must be extraordinary!

Its saliva was oozing out. It opened its mouth, ready to bite the apple.

However, just as its mouth was about to touch the apple, the apple suddenly moved away from it. It missed the apple!
