It has been proven that once a woman's foodie nature erupts, she will recognize no one, not even her closest relatives.

Li Nianfan watched as the mother and daughter almost came to blows over the food, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

So what if I'm a cultivator? Haven't I been conquered by my own delicious food?

This kind of life would make even immortals envious.

He slowly picked up a piece of leopard meat and put it in his mouth.

Hmm~ The texture is smooth, and it's chewy.

Li Nianfan slowly closed his eyes, savoring the meat dancing in his mouth.

At the same time, Xiao Bai didn't forget to take care of Da Hei, placing an entire leopard leg on the ground, allowing Da Hei to enjoy it thoroughly.

This meal almost made Luo Shiyu and Zhong Xiu lose themselves, completely refreshing their worldview. They never imagined that such a wonderful thing existed in the world.

Only when they were truly full did they pat their round, bulging bellies, their faces filled with lingering satisfaction.

"Master Li, thank you for the feast," Zhong Xiu wiped her mouth, returning from her foodie state to her elegant lady, and said.

Li Nianfan waved his hand, "It's just a barbecue, nothing to mention."

"Master Li, this meat must be something only the immortals in heaven can taste, right?" Luo Shiyu couldn't help but ask.

Li Nianfan's lips curled slightly, and he shook his head without saying a word.

Luo Shiyu and Zhong Xiu exchanged glances, their hearts surging with shock.

Is this... disdain?

Disdain for immortals?

Or is it that even immortals don't have the资格 to eat his barbecue?

In an instant, they imagined many things, and their gaze towards Li Nianfan became even more reverent.

The height of this great person is probably unimaginable.

Luo Shiyu looked at Li Nianfan thoughtfully, as if she had something to say, gathering her words.

Then, she looked at Li Nianfan with trepidation and anticipation and said, "Master Li, you are very powerful, and I have a favor to ask of you."

Are you kidding me? You, a cultivator, are asking for help from me, a mortal?

Li Nianfan's first reaction was to refuse.

The depth of the cultivator world was something Li Nianfan didn't dare to think about, let alone get involved in, or he wouldn't even know how he would die.

However, he had a good impression of Luo Shiyu, and he wondered if it would be bad to refuse outright. Maybe he should be more tactful?

Luo Shiyu didn't notice the change in Li Nianfan's expression and organized her words, saying, "Master Li, I didn't mean to hide it from you. Actually... I am the princess of the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty. My father has just ascended the throne, and his power is unstable. He wants to betroth me to the son of a treacherous minister..."

As she spoke, she observed Li Nianfan's expression, and seeing that he remained calm and showed no surprise, she couldn't help but feel relieved.

She had considered hiding her identity, but thinking of the great person's power, she chose to be honest.

It seems my choice was correct; this great person probably saw through everything long ago.

The reason Li Nianfan remained calm was that he was already familiar with this kind of plot. In his previous life, not to mention princesses, even emperors often went incognito. Besides, he already knew that Luo Shiyu's identity was special.

He quickly sorted out the situation.

In short, the newly ascended emperor of the dynasty was still not firmly seated on the throne, and most of the dynasty's power was controlled by the Grand Sorcerer. Now, the Grand Sorcerer proposed to marry his son to the princess, and the emperor, who was at the mercy of others, had no way out.

It was a very cliché plot, common in TV dramas in his previous life.

He never thought that the cultivator world would also encounter such trivial matters; the struggles of the secular world are indeed everywhere.

The main forces in the cultivator world are divided into Immortal Dynasties and Sects. Immortal Dynasties are actually empires led by cultivators, occupying cultivation resources, and even their soldiers are cultivators.

Cultivator sects are often located in famous mountains and rivers with abundant spiritual energy, while Immortal Dynasties are different, with vast territories including many mortal cities, where mortals and cultivators coexist.

In fact, mortals are the mainstream in the cultivator world. Out of a hundred mortals, only one might become a cultivator, and out of a hundred cultivators, only one might be a genius, and a world-class genius is even rarer, appearing once in a hundred years.

To put it bluntly, the cultivators of the Immortal Dynasty rule over mortals. If there are monsters causing trouble, the cultivators of the dynasty will step in to resolve the issue.

The region where Li Nianfan was located was under the jurisdiction of the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty.

Seeing that Li Nianfan remained silent, Luo Shiyu couldn't help but plead, "Master Li, please help me."

"It's just a simple matter, nothing to worry about."

Li Nianfan smiled. If it were a matter of fighting and killing, he would have turned around and left without a second thought. But for this kind of thing, he could think of a hundred and eight ways to solve it.

"Really, you have a way?" Luo Shiyu's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly, "Thank you so much!"

Zhong Xiu's body also straightened, looking at Li Nianfan in surprise.

Seeing their reactions, Li Nianfan inwardly smiled. People in the cultivator world only know cultivation, their thoughts are simple, and they can't even come up with a small trick.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, "I heard that the Chancellor in the Immortal Dynasty is also very powerful. You can use the Chancellor to counter the Grand Sorcerer."

The situation in the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty is very similar to a famous dynasty in Li Nianfan's previous life, the Qin Dynasty!

When Qin Shi Huang first ascended the throne, the power was actually held by his mother and Lü Buwei. In the end, he used the conflict between the two to gain power and establish a prosperous era.

Zhong Xiu's brows furrowed slightly, "Master Li, although the Chancellor's power is slightly weaker than the Grand Sorcerer, he is equally treacherous and ready to strike. The emperor has tried to win over the Chancellor many times, but with little effect."

She was a bit disappointed; they had already thought of this idea, but it was useless.

"It all depends on your skills!" Li Nianfan looked at Luo Shiyu.

Luo Shiyu was stunned, "Me?"

Li Nianfan smiled, "Yes, what if the emperor agrees to betroth the princess to the Grand Sorcerer's son, but at this moment, the princess is getting along well with the Chancellor's son, and they are deeply in love, what would happen?"

Luo Shiyu and Zhong Xiu's minds were stunned, and they stood there in shock.

They were not stupid and quickly understood the meaning.

Brilliant, so brilliant!

The Chancellor, with his ambitious nature, would certainly hope that the princess marries his son to consolidate his power. The Grand Sorcerer, of course, would not let this happen, and the two would directly fall out over the matter of the prince.

Two tigers fighting would weaken both, and at the same time, it would give the emperor a chance to develop!

They stared at Li Nianfan, their eyes burning.

Is this the demeanor of a great person?

Not only are his skills unparalleled and his strength unfathomable, but even a casual strategy can stir up blood and thunder, turning the tide.

It is often said that great people like to use the world as a chessboard, calculating everything. This small problem is indeed no match for him!

Scary, too scary!

Luo Shiyu's face turned red with excitement, and she quickly stood up, bowing to Li Nianfan, saying sincerely, "Master Li, thank you!"

Her eyes were even a bit moist, and the problem that had been troubling her for so long was solved so easily.

Zhong Xiu also stood up and said, "Master Li, your talent is great, and I admire you! Your words have enlightened us, and we will never forget this kindness! We have disturbed you today, please forgive us."

"I just provided a method; you are too polite." Li Nianfan smiled slightly. This was a good deed with the Ganlong Immortal Dynasty, adding another layer of security for his future in the cultivator world.

Subsequently, Luo Shiyu and Zhong Xiu left eagerly, excited to start their plan.

On the way, Zhong Xiu kept sighing, occasionally exclaiming in amazement.

Li Nianfan gave her a dreamlike feeling. His calm and composed attitude, his ability to solve any problem effortlessly, and the unforgettable delicious food, even immortals couldn't compare.

She looked at Luo Shiyu, her tone extremely serious, "Shiyu, meeting a great person like Master Li is a great opportunity. We must do everything to befriend him. After we return, go to the treasure vault and pick a valuable treasure. Although Master Li might not care, the gesture must be proper!"
