Chapter 311: The Taste of Happiness at the Expert’s Place
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the Fallen Immortal Mountain.
Three figures slowly landed on clouds.
They were worried that too many people would disturb the expert. So, only Pei An, Gu Xirou, and the Holy Emperor came.
They coincidentally represented their three sects. Moreover, the Holy Emperor was at the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty, he was considered the closest with the expert. It would not be unusual for him to visit.
Of course, the opportunities were not given to them for free. They had to comfort the others by giving out treasures.
If they got something from the expert, they would also share it with the others.
They knew the importance of manners through interacting with the expert. They could not be greedy and try to be sneaky or manipulative. They were co-workers, hence they must be polite.
“I wonder if the expert would like this so-called Thousand Spell Disk.” Gu Xirou walked while looking at Pei An. She asked, “Cultivator Pei An, you’re quite knowledgeable in the Azure Ville Sect spells, right? What do you think about this disk?”
“It’s too profound!”
Pei An usually liked to boast and pretend. The disk must be truly profound since he was being humble.
He paused and continued, “You asked that to make fun of me, right? This is a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. The weakest spell formation in it is enough for me to investigate for a long while. There are thousands of spell variations in it, it can play me to death.”
Heavenly Spiritual Treasure was an unimaginable treasure to them. Their whole net worth was not up to par with the value of one Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. However, they had no issues giving it away to the expert. They were instead worried that the expert would not like it.
Gu Xirou sighed in relief, “Good. If you think it’s easy to understand, I can never bring it out to the expert.”
Pei An did not look happy at all. “I see this as you trying to piss me off?”
The Holy Emperor immediately stopped walking. He kept his distance from the two.
‘Immortals joking with each other is too scary. I don’t want to be involved.’
Soon, they arrived at the four-part architecture. The three of them jolted and did not dare to speak anymore. They walked forward with devotion.
The Holy Emperor took a deep breath and walked to the door. He knocked on the door.
“Guests are here. Xiaobai, answer the door.”
They heard Li Nianfan.
Then, they heard footsteps.
Creak.
The door was opened.
Xiaobai peeked out and said, “Pardon for the wait, everyone.”
The three of them were instantly scared. They quickly waved, “No, no worries.”
“Please come on in.”
The three of them carefully stepped into the four-part architecture. They saw Daji playing chess with Li Nianfan in the yard. They saluted and greeted, “Greetings to Mr. Li and Lady Daji.”
“Haha, it’s you guys. Welcome. Long time no see, Brother Pei An and Goddess Gu.”
Li Nianfan hurriedly said hello. He smiled and said, “You guys came at the right time. I recently invented a new Milk Cake, you’re all in for a treat.”
Immortals constantly came over to socialize. If they took too long to come for their next visit, Li Nianfan would feel rather lonely.
He created delicacies for his enjoyment, but also to impress the Immortals. Leaving them an unforgettable experience would be the best result. He did not want them to forget about the place.
The three of them were overjoyed. They did not expect to get a surprise like that when they arrived. They were utterly excited and touched, “Thanks, Mr. Li.”
‘The expert is so nice to us.’
Xiaobai came over with a tray.
A big cake quietly rested on the tray.
It was a round whole cake—not sliced, about the size of a face. It looked tidy but was brown on the outside because Li Nianfan did not go through the trouble to decorate the surface. Simple but not boring.
The three of them looked at the cake without blinking. They gulped and felt dry in the throat. It was caused by their desire for delicious food.
The three of them held their breaths. They looked at the cake as it was placed on the table. They licked their lips.
The nice smell of the cake was accentuated when they got closer. They felt that God was miraculous because eggs, flour, and milk could merge together so perfectly. It had a sweet smell that teases the appetite.
It was elegant and subtle. The smell was not as strong as the other foods but once detected, they could not get enough of it.
Xiaobai took out a small knife and sliced the cake. The cake was effortlessly sliced to even pieces. Xiaobai had precise skills, it was as satisfying as watching a flower bloom.
“Milk Cake. Please enjoy.”
“Thanks, Xiaobai.”
“Alright, dig in, everyone. Let me know how it is.” Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Milk and eggs, the perfect combination. This is the simplest version of the Milk Cake, I can add in fruits next time, or make it into a cream or something.”
The three of them hurriedly replied, “Okay, we’ll eat it now.”
‘Let you know how it is? It is delicious for sure.’
The three of them knew clearly that the cake was made from Firefinch eggs, milk from Five-Color Sacred Cows, and the special flour made by the expert.
Food like that was not only delicious, it was also a huge breakthrough. Endless Immortals would kneel and beg for that!
The three of them carefully took a piece.
‘So soft.’
That was their first thought.
The sensation was indescribable. They did not dare to be forceful, it was as if they might squeeze out liquid by accident. They were also worried that they would change the shape of the cake, they did not want to destroy the beautifully made cake.
‘So soft. If it’s in my mouth, then the sensation…’
The three of them were excited. They smacked their lips and could not control themselves anymore. They took a bite.
‘So soft. As if biting on a cloud.’
It immediately melted in their mouths. The aroma filled up their mouths and nostrils.
“So… So delicious!”
Gu Xirou also could not control herself. She devoured the entire cake in one bite.
Most importantly, it was a big slice of cake but she did not need to chew it much. She felt the cake melted on her tongue and merged in with her body as one.
It was as if she was soaking in warm water. She felt repeatedly floating on cloud nine.
Enjoyment. It was extremely enjoyable!
The place of the expert was a paradise. Aside from the opportunities they got from the delicious food, the feeling of sheer happiness was unmatched!
Suddenly, they realized something. ‘Why am I a cultivator? So what if I’m Immortal? Am I even truly happy?’
They realized that their lives were worth it because they ate the food of the expert!
Li Nianfan smiled and said, “How is it? How does it taste?”
“Delicious, too delicious! It’s tasty and mesmerizing.”
“Truth be told, I feel most relaxed here, Mr. Li.”
Li Nianfan laughed. “Because delicious food makes us forget about all our troubles. It’s the biggest enjoyment in life.”
“Mr. Li, we brought something this time.” Pei An flicked his wrist and out came the Thousand Spell Disk. He slowly passed it to Li Nianfan.
Li Nianfan immediately replied, “You guys came to visit every time with gifts, I feel so sheepish.”
Pei An hurriedly said, “It’s just a small plaything. It’s not a treasure or anything.”
“Thank you, then.” Li Nianfan smiled and accepted it. Immortals would not take advantage of ordinary men so if he did not accept it, it would be rude.
The disk was not small, it was as big as a chessboard. It was black and looked like a compass disk. It had a stripe pattern on it. The stripe pattern would shine being touched by a finger.
“Huh? Fun.”
Li Nianfan was intrigued. He tried to rub it with his hands again.
The color of the compass disk kept flickering and changing. The lights had different colors. It looked like several small colorful snakes slithered in the compass disk, creating different colorful patterns.
“This is… a Gaming Console?”
