Chapter 51: Mr. Li’s Tricks

Qin Manyun seemed fearful of Li Nianfan. She stood there respectfully, controlling her breathing.

Her politeness was overboard. She was probably from a powerful sect, which was why she had fantastic manners.

“Don’t just stand there. Have a seat,” Li Nianfan said smiling. “Xiao Bai, pour a drink for the two ladies.”

Qin Manyun calmed herself down and said, “Mr. Li, I shouldn’t have come here without prior notice. Sorry for the inconvenience.”

“It’s not an inconvenience. I was actually hoping to see you two,” Li Nianfan laughed.

Hm?

Luo Shiyu and Qin Manyun looked troubled. They understood what he implied.

They sat down before automatically standing up again.

Luo Shiyu said with respect, “Mr. Li, just tell us if there’s anything you need!”

They were nervous and excited. They did not know if they could help Mr. Li out. Perhaps they could benefit from this?

What a priceless opportunity!

“I won’t order you around. Relax.” Li Nianfan was a tad bit shy. They were too kind.

“There seems to be cultivators all around me recently. I can’t go out, and it’s impossible to go hunting in the mountains. Could you help me find out what’s going on?” asked Li Nianfan.

The cultivators were not exactly at the four-part architecture, but it was still unsafe for Li Nianfan to go outside.

He was too ordinary and weak in a situation like this. Under different circumstances, he would have ventured out with Daji instead of staying indoors and playing Chinese chess all day.

A request from an expert!

Luo Shiyu and Qin Manyun looked at each other.

They seemed excited.

They did not think that Li Nianfan was clueless. An expert just simply would not deal with pesky ants, so he requested for their help.

This was their chance to shine!

Meanwhile, Luo Shiyu was feeling a bit embarrassed. She should not have neglected this issue happening in the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty’s turf. She should not have waited until Mr. Li had to point it out to them!

“Mr. Li, it was thoughtless of us. I’ll deal with it immediately!”

Qin Manyun also promised, “I’ll help too, Mr. Li!”

Luo Shiyu saw the opportunity and chimed in, “Yeah! With Manyun’s help, these people will be gone in no time!”

Qin Manyun smiled, but she had an upsurge of emotions internally.

She knew it!

The expert had indeed expected their arrival!

The Nine-Tailed Fox brought all the cultivators and powerful forces here. The Ganlong Immortal Dynasty was not capable of dealing with all of them. Only someone from the Linxian Palace was capable of doing so!

When the expert said he was ‘actually hoping to see you two’, what he really meant was he was expecting her arrival!

Qin Manyun had chills and goosebumps all over. She thought to herself, ‘I’m probably like his chess piece. This expert definitely saw me coming!’

Li Nianfan smiled at their offer to help. “Thanks. Please, have a seat.”

Qin Manyun sneakily glanced at him.

Now this was what they called him a hidden expert. He looked completely ordinary on the surface!

Then, she glanced at Daji.

Was this the Nine-Tailed Fox?

She was just curious. However, she was perturbed at the sight of her.

‘This… How is this possible?’

Daji was covered with a thin veil of fog. The fog was not an ordinary fog. It was something that could only be sensed by someone with high insights training.

The fog was a spiritual manifestation!

Normally, a spiritual manifestation would occur when one absorbed too much spirituality in a short amount of time. However, it was very rare. Most people treated the saying as a joke since it was assumed to be absurd. Spirituality was already hard to achieve, so manifestation caused by too much spirituality was extremely rare.

She could not believe she actually witnessed spiritual manifestation!

Qin Manyun was speechless. She almost drooled in admiration.

How much luck would you need to have to receive an amount of spirituality like that?!

This was like a poor man meeting a billionaire going through the compare and despair cycle.

Qin Manyun also noticed that Daji’s Insights cultivation was at the Golden Core level!

It had only been a few days since the transformation of the Nine-Tailed Fox. Moreover, Luo Shiyu said the Nine-Tailed Fox was hurt from natural tribulations. She would have died if the expert did not save her. So, how did she reach the Golden Core level?

Did she…have a cheat code or something?

Qin Manyun was utterly confused. She felt like she was not knowledgeable enough to understand the situation.

However, she knew it had something to do with Li Nianfan!

Li Nianfan was extraordinary. She would be lucky if she got the opportunity to follow him.

Qin Manyun envied Daji. She wished to follow Li Nianfan around, too. Even if she had to serve him like a maid, it would still be more awesome than being a powerful Saintess anywhere!

Suddenly, she smelled an erotic scent. It perked her up.

She looked toward the scent and gasped in shock!

A full garden of Spiritual Herbs! Premium grade Spiritual Herbs!

A handful of these would cause a fight in the market without a doubt!

Qin Manyun was a Saintess at the Linxian Palace, but she was astounded by how luxurious this was.

Beautiful, amazing, luxurious!

‘Don’t scream! Calm down! Calm yourself down! Experts won’t like fussy people,’ Qin Manyun thought to herself. She was internally screaming and had to take a few deep breaths.

She looked at Luo Shiyu and realized she was already in a daze.

Luo Shiyu told Qin Manyun not make a fuss here, but she was not handling it well herself.

Qin Manyun shook her to snap her out of it.

Luo Shiyu’s throat felt dry. She was at a loss for words.

She knew Li Nianfan had some Spiritual Herbs. However, she did not expect him to plant a full garden of it!

More importantly, his gardening was a success. The quality of the herbs were fantastic and the grade of the Herbs were even better than the original.

She felt like she was dreaming.

“This… This…” Luo Shiyu mumbled. “Mr. Li, you planted the Spiritual Herbs?”

“Yeah, I used some tricks up my sleeves. The results are decent,” Li Nianfan smiled.

He was pleased with himself when he saw their facial expressions.

It was indeed a great choice to plant the Spiritual Herbs. Even the cultivators were astounded.

He did not want others to look down on him because he was ordinary, and it felt good to be admired by cultivators.

Tricks?

Decent results?

Qin Manyun and Luo Shiyu felt chills from his flex. They stood there, dumbfounded.
