I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 66: Ten Years!

Thousands of miles away, on the west side of the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty, near its border was where the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion was located.

Hidden by the green bushes, the main hall was made of green tiles and blue bricks. Various smaller side halls surrounded the main hall. Inside, the halls were filled with people as well as the sound of preaching.

Be it the main hall or the side halls, they were all cloaked in a faint layer of mist. The mist condensed in between them, just like the clouds in the sky.

Vroom!

Suddenly, the main hall went into an uproar. It was followed by a huge force coming out of it, forming a huge whirlpool, like a shark swallowing the Spiritual Qi around.

The mist in the surroundings were all affected as they dispersed into the air.

“Is the Court Master coming out of the retreat?”

“These are signs of a breakthrough!”

“Hurry up! Let’s all focus on the Spiritual Qi and assist the Court Master to breakthrough!”

Inside the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion, the disciples were filled with joy, as all of them rode on clouds to gather in the main hall from all directions.

Three elderly cultivators came along as well—their bodies floated in the air and landed gracefully on the roof of the main hall. With their serious face on, they made a gesture, “Listen up, all disciples. Focus our mana and condense them all here to help the Court Master breakthrough!”

Vroom!

As he finished speaking, the surroundings of the main hall lit up. The water on the ground formed a unique pattern.

The disciples did not hesitate. They all raised their hands and focused on gathering their mana. The waves of mana flew in from all directions, and finally gathered at the top of the main hall. The Spiritual Qi in the surroundings turned wild as well.

Meanwhile, under the cloudless and clear sky, a gigantic silhouette appeared in the air above the main hall. This figure was dressed in a black robe. His face was like a child’s and his eyes were sparkling and glowing with life.

The three elderly people on the roof said in unison, “Greetings to the Court Master!”

Lin Qingyun rose into the sky and landed on the roof. She cried out with surprise, “Dad!”

Smiles of joy appeared on the faces of the disciples. The Court Master had retreated for ten years. Now, he was finally out!

After his breakthrough, he would be in the Distraction realm. With that, the reputation of the Lingyun Immortal Pavilion would rank up as well, becoming one of the highest-ranking sects!

With that, the benefits would increase as well. Of course, everyone was happy!

The elderly man in a black robe looked at the faces of the crowd and he let out a smile. His gaze then fell on his daughter and he ordered, “Qingyun, when I’m at the crucial moment of the breakthrough, you may go to the treasure vault and bring me the Nine Ginseng. Whether I succeed or not would depend on this!”

The smile on Lin Qingyun’s face stiffened. She looked at her father and remained silent.

“Hmph?” The elderly man was shocked. “My good daughter, why are you still here? Why don’t you go and get it?”

Lin Qingyun bit her tongue and said, “Dad, I’ve given the Nine Ginseng to someone.”

“What?” the elderly man was shocked. He asked hurriedly, “It’s okay if the Nine Ginseng is gone. Go get the Neon Grass. Hurry! I don’t have much time.”

The elderly man thought himself lucky to have collected all these Spiritual Herbs. To use them during his breakthrough, he had spent a lot of effort collecting all the sixteen types of the finest Spiritual Herbs. He would be able to break through easily.

However, a moment later, he had a strange hunch as he saw that his daughter remained transfixed in the same spot.

As expected, he heard Lin Qingyun stutter softly, “Dad, I gave it away as well.”

“What about the Chalcedony?” the elderly man’s voice started to tremble.

“I gave it away...”

“Dragon Heart?”

“I also gave that away...” Lin Qingyun could feel her scalp itching as she said softly. “Dad, I’ve given all of our elixirs away to someone...”

“What!?” the elderly man jolted vigorously as if being struck by lightning. He gasped at Lin Qingyun with disbelief.

“Who? Who did you give them all to?” The elderly man’s face was reddened by now.

Lin Qingyun thought of the expert. She felt calmer as she explained, “A man called Mr. Li. He’s a hidden expert and he likes to live an ordinary life. Even the Immortals of the Immortal Land are nothing compared to him!”

Mr. Li?

Hidden expert?

The Immortals were nothing compared to him?

She obviously made these all up!

By then, the elderly man was shaking so vigorously, he could collapse anytime. He was certain by then that his daughter was cheated by a con man!

Well, the elixirs were all stolen. He wondered if this con man took any advantage of her body as well!

The rest of the disciples all looked at Lin Qingyun with a confused look. The Saintess was usually smart. Why was she easily cheated by this man? Perhaps a woman in love would be less rational!

The breakthrough of their Court Master was unlikely to happen now!

Poor father!

“Whatever! Whatever!” the elderly man smiled bitterly. Since it was his daughter who made the mistake, he could only swallow it down. Once he got out of the retreat, he would chop that con man into half!

Instantly, his voice turned a few hundred years older, and with a hoarse voice, he said, “Dismissed. Dismissed.”

From joy to tragedy. All the disciples looked perplexed.

Lin Qingyun bit her tongue. She felt hopeless. Suddenly, her eyes sparkled and she said, “Dad, I did manage to get something in exchange for all of these herbs and elixirs. Perhaps it could help you!”

“What is it?” the elderly man asked.

Lin Qingyun took out a packet of tea leaves and said excitedly, “This! The gift from the expert will not be anything ordinary! Perhaps it could be helpful.”

“Tea leaves?” The elderly man was confused. His age-washed face twitched. Sixteen Spiritual Herbs in exchange for one packet of tea leaves?

He looked at Lin Qingyu as if it was the first time he met his daughter. He had not seen her for ten years, and the changes in her were too much! Especially her IQ. She was a completely different person!

Lin Qingyun looked at her father anxiously with anticipation. She insisted, “Dad, trust me.”

The elderly man saw the look of anticipation in her daughter and could not reject her. He nodded, “Alright, then.”

Whatever. He would try it just for his daughter since she was still young and did not do it on purpose.

Lin Qingyun was delighted! She ran away to make the tea for her father.

On the top floor of the main hall, the elderly man sat cross-legged on a futon placed in the center of the empty room. He raised the cup and looked at the tea.

The tea leaves floated in the tea without a trace of impurities! The tea was clear and had a faint distinctive fragrance.

“Although it’s a loss, I’ll have to admit this is indeed good tea.”

A smile appeared on his face. It seemed to be the first time his daughter made him tea since she was young? What else could he do but forgive her?

The elderly man had no expectations. Out of habit, he blew on the tea and then took a sip.

“Haha, others eat elixirs before the breakthrough, while I drink tea! I’m probably the first in history...”
