Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Journey to the West!
Gautama Buddha!
Five Finger Mountain!
Lin Qingyun thought of these words and was extremely excited.
No wonder it was so powerful. It was these two bigshots!
‘Journey to the West’ was a story she heard from the beginning to the end, recited by Li Nianfan. She was respectful towards the ‘Journey to the West’ universe. The two bigshot characters were her favorite, so she was excited like a fangirl meeting her idol.
Awesome, the expert imagined the scene. That must mean he experienced ‘Journey to the West’!
It was probably Heaven from a faraway era!
Also… He could replicate the Insights of Gautama Buddha. Does that mean he was at a higher level than the Buddha?
Horrifying!
Suddenly, the Gautama Buddha pressed his palms against the ground. Everything was affected by the powerful force.
Wukong was underneath the palm. He was a strong and powerful being but he could not escape the five Buddha fingers.
Lin Mufeng was standing still like a statue. He stared at the Preaching Pearl and felt an
However, he looked excited.
He learned from the Preaching Pearl so he knew what this meant.
The expert must be a being more powerful beyond his comprehension. He was simply recalling this scene, but it was already more amazing than the knowledge of his ancestors!
Suddenly, he did not feel sorry for the loss of generational knowledge.
What they were looking at was a pure treasure!
He realized he had the greatest pleasure of being involved!
Luck!
He felt lucky!
Li Nianfan must be pleased with the so-called television, that was why he blessed him with this opportunity!
Awesome! Even if he did not understand anything, this was an experience of a lifetime!
Boom!
Gold light was shining from the Buddha’s palm. Then, it transformed into the Five Finger Mountain. Wukong was eventually trapped underneath it!
The end!
Li Nianfan opened his eyes and checked the visuals on the Preaching Pearl. He instantly smiled.
Good item!
He would no longer be bored with this item.
Although it was television shows from his imagination, it was still better than having no television at all.
Li Nianfan did not try to be courteous. He said, “I’ll accept this television. Thank you so much.”
“You’re welcome, Mr. Li. It was just a little token from us,” Lin Mufeng said smilingly.
He was thrilled because this seemed like a good start.
Li Nianfan nodded and invited them, “It’s getting late, why don’t you both stay for a meal?”
Lin Mufeng was about to courteously reject him, but Lin Qingyun took on his offer instantly. “Thank you for the trouble, Mr. Li.”
Li Nianfan laughed. “It’s not troubling. Good timing because coincidentally, I hunted a big eagle yesterday. We’re serving mushroom eagle soup today, so you’re in luck for a treat.”
“Master, it’s almost ready,” said Xiaobai.
Xiaobai carried a black clay pot out. All the ingredients were in the pot, and the mushrooms and side dishes were ready, too.
Li Nianfan smiled. “Perfect timing. Please, wait while I go check on the food.”
Lin Qingyun whispered at Lin Mufeng, “Father, you almost missed out on something good!”
“What do you mean?” Lin Mufeng was confused. He frowned and said, “You’re being rude for instantly accepting his offer like that. Where are your manners? Be careful not to displease the expert!”
“Father, did you forget when I told you about the Bai Luoshang incident?” Lin Qingyun said, exasperated. “The expert won’t be eating ordinary stuff, right? This is our lucky chance!”
Lin Mufeng looked like he realized something.
He still shook his head and scolded her. “You have no manners! Even if it’s an opportunity, it doesn’t mean we should do that! It belongs to experts like Mr. Li. We should be grateful when he chooses to bless us, but we cannot shamelessly beg for it. We should’ve been more considerate before accepting his offer just now. How could you be so impolite?! Next time, think before you act. Got it?”
Lin Qingyun stuck her tongue out. She got worried and said carefully, “Father, I was wrong. Do you think Mr. Li’s angry at us?”
Lin Mufeng sighed softly. “Who knows what’s going on inside the mind of experts? Let’s go help him out. Maybe we can redeem ourselves.”
They carefully walked towards Li Nianfan and courteously asked, “Mr. Li, is there anything we can help you with?”
Li Nianfan looked at the pyre, then shook his head while smiling. “You’re my guests. Just sit and wait.”
“We can’t do that. We can’t shamelessly eat a free meal.”
Lin Mufeng already got it. He stepped towards the pyre and rolled up his sleeves. “Mr. Li, I’ll handle splitting the firewood!”
Li Nianfan did not say anything since Lin Mufeng was enthusiastic. He thought to himself, ‘All these cultivators are so nice!’
“Maybe it’s because I’m a charmer? I’m just an ordinary man, but since I have royal attributes, the people I meet will all be nice to me? I can live a worry-free life?’ Li Nianfan thought to himself.
A charmer, how nice.
Li Nianfan suddenly smiled.
Lin Mufeng sat next to the pyre and looked around. He grabbed the Fallen Demon Sword next to the pyre.
He had a conflicted gaze as he thought to himself, ‘The famous Fallen Demon Sword. Countless demons were terrified of this legendary sword. Rumor had it that owning this sword means having the blessing of the Demon Realm. I guess nobody knew it would end up as an ax to split firewood.’
Before this, Lin Mufeng would have been scared of the Fallen Demon Sword.
‘What happened to your demonic powers, huh? Aren’t you supposed to be cool and awesome?’ Lin Mufeng mocked the Fallen Demon Sword and thought about his Preaching Pearl. ‘You guys are usually so awesome, but in the eyes of the expert, you guys are nothing. Ew, how embarrassing!’
Okay, enough with the jokes. Lin Mufeng had to hurry up with the task and impress the expert.
Lin Mufeng placed a block of wood and held the Fallen Demon Sword to chop it!
Bam!
The Fallen Demon Sword only went in three inches.
Lin Mufeng was stumped.
What was going on?
The block of wood was supposed to be chopped clean in half.
