I'm Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 470: A Spontaneous Trip

Li Nianfan put away the World Map. He smiled and said, “Nanan, let’s go. Let’s have a spontaneous trip.”

Nanan was delighted. She said without hesitation, “Yes, brother.”

They did not pack anything. They were soon out of the four-part architecture.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Xiao Bai, if anyone comes to visit, tell them I went away to travel.”

Xiao Bai walked them to the door like a gentleman. “Yes, my noble Master.”

Nanan asked curiously, “Brother, where are we going?”

“According to the directions of the map, I’m going to Gaolao Village first. Then, we’ll go to Daughters Kingdom after passing through the Liusha River. Our last stop…is of course the Wuzhuang Temple!”

Li Nianfan already had a plan in mind. Then, he said, “But before that, let’s go to Fallen Town.”

He must visit Wuzhuang Temple. After all, his lifespan was on the line. He knew that it was hopeless but he still did not want to give up. He treated it as a last resort. He was looking forward to it.

“Yeah, yeah.”

Nanan naturally had no objections. She kept nodding. It did not matter where they went, she was just happy to travel.

They walked and soon arrived at Fallen Town.

They walked along the streets of the city. There were a lot of visitors and a lot of familiar faces. They all greeted Li Nianfan.

“Mr. Li.”

Suddenly, he heard someone amongst the crowd. The fishmonger ran to him.

Li Nianfan smiled, “Fishmonger, not doing business today?”

The fishmonger laughed, “I haven’t been fishing as much recently. I’m off work earlier, too. I just go with the flow.”

Li Nianfan was surprised. “Yo, being so zen about things now?”

“Haha, all because of Little Fish. She just came back with a lot of things. She told me not to work so hard from now on. My kid’s still so young but she’s capable of meddling in my business.”

The fishmonger laughed. He sounded proud of her. Then, he said politely, “Mr. Li, it’s all thanks to you. I heard from Little Fish that you and Lady Nanan took good care of her.”

He was just an ordinary man but he knew a lot from years of business. He was not foolish.

Little Fish just joined a cultivation sect. Even if she was talented, she would not return in such a short amount of time with tons of valuable items. Her cultivation sect treated her too well.

According to Little Fish, Nanan was a great cultivator. Her sect did not take good care of her, they were kissing up to her.

He already figured out that Li Nianfan was someone extraordinary.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “I see that your daughter’s successful. Good. Congrats, fishmonger.”

The fishmonger took out two big carps from his water bucket and said, “Mr. Li, I’m left with two big carps today. I ran into you so it’s fate. You have to accept it.”

“I think you saved these two carps to bring back home.” Li Nianfan smiled and shook his head. “I can’t accept them.”

“Hey, I’m a fishmonger. I have loads of fish at home. Mr. Li, thank you so much for taking care of Little Fish. Please, you have to accept it.” The fishmonger looked passionate.

Li Nianfan accepted it.

The fishmonger was instantly overjoyed. It was clear to him that Li Nianfan was extraordinary but he was still willing to accept his fish as usual. Li Nianfan did not look down on him.

He also treated him like a friend!

Li Nianfan was still the same man he met.

Li Nianfan said farewell to the fishmonger. He looked at the two carps and shrugged it off. ‘I just started my journey with two fishes…’

He walked on the streets with Nanan.

Soon, they arrived at the East Gates.

The old Locust Tree was growing well. It was higher than three meters tall with thick leaves, too. It was thick enough to cast a shade on the ground.

The old Locust Tree swayed when it noticed Li Nianfan. The tree stem slowly rose and formed the face of an elder. It was as if the elder had grown from the stem. It slowly appeared.

The old Locust Tree had cast a cover-up spell. No one noticed anything odd about the tree.

The Human figure of the old Locust Tree was short. He jogged over to Li Nianfan and greeted politely, “Greetings to the Lord Saint.”

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Old Locust Tree, congratulations on being the Mountain God.”

Back then, he knew that the old Locust Tree was extraordinary. The old Locust Tree was struck by lightning and fell without injuring anyone. It also grew fast as a sprout.

As Li Nianfan expected, the old Locust Tree became the Mountain God in the blink of an eye. It was a very basic God but it was still a God title.

The old Locust Tree was utterly humble, “Ha. I’m still a weak cultivator. It’s all thanks to you, Mr. Li.”

He knew that the Heavenly Palace gave him the Mountain God title because of Li Nianfan. Otherwise, he would just be a random Mountain Demon.

The Heavenly Palace was previously understaffed. However, they would not just give out job positions to anyone.

“Your cultivation isn’t the most important thing. You can get better at cultivation with training. Your kindness is rare and valuable.”

Li Nianfan smiled. Then, he said, “You’ve always been at Fallen Town. I also came to see you a few times but I haven’t treated you to a good drink. I came here to congratulate you so I have to drink with you.”

Li Nianfan took out the Golden Purple Gourd. He poured a glass of wine for the old Locust Tree. “Here. To you.”

The old Locust Tree trembled. He was stunned. He tried his best to control his beating heart. He slowly took the glass of wine.

He carefully held the wine glass as he trembled.

The wine was far better than his imagination. He knew more about Li Nianfan than the others. He knew that the wine was treasured by the Jade Emperor and the Empress, too.

However, the expert just casually poured him a glass.

The Heavenly Palace had repeatedly reminded him to keep up with the act. He would have freaked out if it was not for the reminders.

‘Such treatment! How can I stay calm?!

‘So generous! The expert is so generous!’

So generous that he could barely hold it together.

He felt like a rich guy just rewarded him with a billion dollars for walking on the streets. It was an incredible feeling.

He took a deep breath. He did not dare to delay. He hurriedly raised the wine glass to cover up his nervousness and drank it in one go.

It was just wine but it still made him blush. He felt feverish as if his forehead was going to emit steam.

He hurriedly activated his powers. He suppressed the after-effects of drinking the wine with all his might.

He forced himself to stay calm. “Nice… Nice wine.”

Li Nianfan said, “Oh yeah. Old Locust Tree, I have something to ask you.”

The old Locust Tree immediately straightened up. He said, “Feel free to ask, Lord Saint. I’ll tell you everything I know!”

Li Nianfan asked, “If I travel somewhere else, how can I summon a Mountain God or an Earth God?”

He forgot to ask the Jade Emperor that question.

He wondered if it was like in ‘Journey to the West’, whereby he could step on the ground and call for the God of Soil and Ground.

He naturally had to ask because he was going to travel.

“Oh. Easy.”

The old Locust Tree smiled and said, “Lord Saint, you’re the Deluxe Merit Saint of the Heavenly Palace. All you need to do is step on the ground and call for whichever God you want to summon. We’ll respond.”

Li Nianfan smiled. “Nice and convenient.”

He said farewell to the old Locust Tree. Li Nianfan walked out of the East Gates. He walked towards the North according to the map’s directions.

The old Locust Tree sighed heavily. He shivered and blushed. Smoke was coming out from the top of his head.

It was because he suppressed his reaction to the wine. He did not want his act to fail in front of the expert. It was so difficult to endure it. He almost blew up.

However, he was willing to endure it even if it meant enduring it to death!

He hurriedly jogged over to the stem. He dived into the tree stem. The entire old Locust Tree was instantly drunk. Meanwhile, the roots and the branches slowly grew with visible speed.

…

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Li Nianfan and Nanan walked in the woods. They were walking leisurely as if walking in their garden.

They were not in a rush because they were traveling. Their first choice was to walk on foot. Moreover… One of them was a powerful cultivator, the other one was the Deluxe Merit Saint. They were basically not in danger.

On the contrary, Nanan caused a lot of danger for others.

Li Nianfan finally realized the quirky side of Nanan.

They were robbed six times in seven days. They were also attacked by Demons seven times. All because of Nanan. Li Nianfan learned something new about her.

Nanan was geared up with gold and silver accessories. She dressed like a millionaire. Her innocent face made her look harmless. She looked like a nice little girl.

It was hard not to rob someone like her.

Just imagine—

Imagine if one was a robber or a Demon. One would assume they would have their way with Nanan and Li Nianfan, laughing like a creep. Then, the lambs-to-slaughter suddenly flew up on a cloud. Could one fathom what it would feel like?

‘No freaking way.’

‘Oh no!’

Nanan seemed to be enjoying it…

‘The predator pretending to be the prey. Does this kid think she’s the main character or something?’

Li Nianfan thought to himself. However, he had to say that the expressions of the opponents were very hilarious. It entertained them on their journey…

Nanan was still not satisfied. She sighed and said, “Too bad. If I was as pretty as Sister Daji, it’ll probably be more fun.”

Clop, clop.

Suddenly, they heard a horse galloping in the woods…
