Chapter 52

Qin Manyun was already in awe of Li Nianfan to the extreme, standing respectfully in her place, even controlling her breathing.

This girl is being overly polite, she must be from a major sect; her upbringing is truly excellent.

"Stop standing, sit down," Li Nianfan said with a smile. "Xiaobai, go get some water for the two young ladies."

Qin Manyun finally steadied her nerves and said, "Young Master Li, I have come uninvited and disturbed you."

"Not at all, I was actually looking forward to your visit," Li Nianfan said with a smile.

Huh?

Luo Shiyu and Qin Manyun's faces suddenly tensed as they naturally picked up on the implications in Li Nianfan's words.

They had just sat down but found themselves standing up again involuntarily.

Luo Shiyu said respectfully, "Young Master Li, please feel free to give us any orders!"

They were both nervous and excited, not knowing what Young Master Li needed and whether they could be of any help. If they could, wouldn't it be a good deed to form a bond with Young Master Li?

Such an opportunity was too rare!

"Don't call it an order, there's no need to be so nervous," Li Nianfan said, feeling a bit embarrassed by their reactions. They were too enthusiastic, too enthusiastic.

"Recently, there have been many cultivators flying around here, making it impossible for me to go out, let alone hunt in the mountains. Can you help me find out what's going on?" Li Nianfan asked.

Although these cultivators hadn't come to the courtyard, they had made it impossible for Li Nianfan to go out.

As a mortal, he felt quite vulnerable in such an environment. If not for this situation, he would have taken Daji out for a spring outing long ago and wouldn't have been stuck at home playing chess all the time.

A hint, a hint from a great master!

Luo Shiyu and Qin Manyun exchanged glances.

Their brows were filled with excitement.

They didn't think Li Nianfan was unaware of the reason. It was just that a great master wouldn't personally deal with a large group of ants, so he was subtly reminding them.

This is our chance to show our worth!

At the same time, Luo Shiyu felt a bit guilty. In the territory of the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty, how could she have overlooked this issue and let Young Master Li bring it up himself? That was unacceptable!

"Young Master Li, we were not thorough enough before. I will handle this matter immediately!"

Qin Manyun also immediately promised, "I am willing to help Young Master Li with this!"

Luo Shiyu's eyes lit up, and she quickly added, "Yes, with Sister Manyun's help, these people will definitely leave soon!"

Qin Manyun smiled, but her heart was in turmoil.

That's right!

The great master must have foreseen that I would come!

The influence of the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox is too great, and so many cultivators and forces have gathered here. The Ganlong Immortal Dynasty alone definitely doesn't have the power to drive them all away. Only the Linxian Dao Palace can do it!

When the great master said he was "looking forward to our visit," he was actually looking forward to my visit!

Qin Manyun felt her scalp tingle, and goosebumps broke out all over her body. Bitterly, she thought, "I must have been part of the great master's plan all along!"

Seeing their agreement, Li Nianfan immediately smiled, "Thank you, please sit down."

Only then did Qin Manyun dare to sneak a glance at Li Nianfan from the corner of her eye.

Truly a great master, hiding so well that he appeared completely mortal, with no trace of any flaw!

She then secretly looked at Daji.

Is this the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox that has transformed?

She was just curious, but this glance made her whole body tremble.

"How, how is this possible?!"

In her eyes, Daji seemed to be enveloped in a faint mist, different from the ordinary mist people usually see. Only those with deep cultivation could perceive it.

Because this mist represented the manifestation of Dao!

Generally, this only happens when one is exposed to too much Dao in a short time and cannot fully digest it. However, this was so rare that many people considered it a joke. Dao was already hard to come by, how could it be so abundant that one couldn't digest it?

But... today she actually saw it!

Qin Manyun felt her mouth go dry, her saliva almost gushing out, overwhelmed with envy.

What kind of great fortune must one have to accumulate so much Dao?

It was like a poor person encountering a millionaire; without comparison, there would be no pain.

Moreover, Qin Manyun noticed Daji's cultivation, which had already reached the Golden Core stage!

It had only been a few days since the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox transformed, and Luo Shiyu had clearly said that the Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox was injured by the heavenly tribulation and would have died without the great master's help. How did she reach the Golden Core stage?

Is this... cheating?

Qin Manyun was utterly baffled. With her current worldview, she couldn't figure out why.

However, she was certain that everything was related to Li Nianfan!

Who is Young Master Li? As long as one follows him, opportunities abound.

Qin Manyun's eyes were filled with envy. If she could stay by Young Master Li's side, even just serving tea and water, it would be better than being a holy maiden anywhere else!

At that moment, a strange fragrance wafted into her nose, instantly invigorating her.

Looking up, she couldn't help but gasp, completely stunned!

The entire courtyard was filled with spiritual herbs and immortal grass, and they were all of the highest quality!

Without a doubt, any one of these plants would be enough to cause a bloodbath in the outside world!

Even as a holy maiden of the Linxian Dao Palace, Qin Manyun was stunned by this grand display.

Too beautiful, too shocking, too extravagant!

"Don't scream, stay calm, stay calm! The great master doesn't like people making a fuss." Qin Manyun kept reminding herself, trying to suppress her shock with deep breaths.

She glanced at Luo Shiyu, who had a vacant look and was already in a daze.

She told me not to make a fuss, but she can't handle it herself.

Qin Manyun quickly shook Luo Shiyu to bring her back to her senses.

Luo Shiyu felt her throat dry, unable to speak.

She had witnessed Li Nianfan obtaining the spiritual herbs, but she never imagined he would plant them!

Most importantly, not only did he successfully plant them, but they were growing extremely well, even surpassing their quality when they were first delivered.

This shock was like a dream.

"This, this..." Luo Shiyu stammered for a long time, unable to speak, "Young Master Li, you planted these spiritual herbs?"

"Yes, I used some techniques, and they are growing quite well," Li Nianfan said with a slight smile.

He saw the expressions of Luo Shiyu and Qin Manyun and couldn't help but feel a bit smug.

His decision to plant the spiritual herbs to boost his prestige was indeed correct. Look, even cultivators were shocked.

Although he was a mortal, he didn't want to be looked down upon. Being revered by cultivators felt great.

Used some techniques?

Growing quite well?

Qin Manyun and Luo Shiyu were so stunned by Li Nianfan's display that they were left speechless.
