Chapter 91

Do you understand?

Lin Mufeng and Old Sun simultaneously looked at Daoist Tianyan.

"Oh? Hurry up and tell us," Old Sun said curiously.

"In fact, I often have this mindset too," Daoist Tianyan said with a smile. "None of us cultivators were born as immortals. At the beginning, we all descended as mortals. I often think that if I could truly cultivate to become an immortal, I would end this busy life and return to being a mortal, living a carefree and free life, enjoying the world, how pleasant it would be."

"That makes sense, that makes sense!"

Old Sun nodded in realization. "If that's the case, since one has the intention to return to the mortal world, they naturally like to interact with people in a mortal way. If someone points it out, they would feel disturbed and definitely uncomfortable."

It's like a billionaire standing in front of you saying he's just an ordinary person and not interested in money. Would you dare to contradict him and slap him in the face?

No, you wouldn't! Not only would you not dare, but you would also have to play along with him.

Lin Mufeng whispered, "Alright, don't talk anymore! We're almost there!"

Old Sun and Daoist Tianyan's bodies trembled, and even their breathing became cautious. They felt their limbs turn cold, like candidates about to enter an exam room, extremely anxious.

"Relax, the expert is very easy to talk to," Lin Mufeng reassured them.

Then, he slowly walked forward, full of reverence, and said, "Is Master Li at home?"

"Creak!"

The one who opened the door was Xiaobai. His eyes scanned the three of them and said, "Welcome."

Is this the spirit of the artifact? Indeed, it's terrifying!

At that moment, Old Sun and Daoist Tianyan couldn't help but tense up, as if the spirit of the artifact had seen through everything.

They quickly put on their most friendly smiles.

Lin Mufeng also respectfully said, "Hello, Xiaobai. I am Lin Mufeng, a friend of Master Li."

"I remember you," Xiaobai nodded and stepped aside, "Please come in."

"Thank you for your hospitality."

Lin Mufeng and the others immediately stepped carefully into the quadrangle courtyard.

The layout of the quadrangle courtyard hadn't changed much from a few days ago, but there were many subtle changes.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they smelled a fragrant aroma, not the ordinary scent of flowers, but the scent of medicine!

This made Lin Mufeng and the others instantly feel refreshed.

They subtly glanced at the spiritual herbs and immortal grass in the courtyard, their hearts beating faster.

The growth of these spiritual herbs and immortal grass was beyond imagination, each one competing for beauty, emitting a fragrant aroma, as if vying for Master Li's favor.

Even Lin Mufeng saw a spiritual herb that originally wouldn't bloom, now blooming...

What a lickspittle!

Lin Mufeng immediately felt a sense of shame, unable to compare, unable to compare.

Li Nianfan was playing chess with Daji. Seeing Lin Mufeng, he smiled and said, "Oh, Elder Lin has come? Welcome."

"Meeting Master Li and Miss Daji."

Lin Mufeng couldn't wait to start showing off and said, "Master Li, I heard you still needed a refrigerator. I recently got a small gadget by chance, so I brought it over."

"Oh? The refrigerator has arrived?"

Li Nianfan's eyes lit up, and he said with some anticipation.

"It's right here." Lin Mufeng took out the packing box and handed it to Li Nianfan, "I also brought the box from last time."

Li Nianfan's good impression of Lin Mufeng instantly increased.

Look at how polite he is.

To return a disposable packing box after using it, and to remember and specially bring over a refrigerator just because I mentioned it casually last time.

I always thought the world of cultivation was full of intrigue and danger, but it turns out I was wrong.

Li Nianfan took the packing box and curiously looked at the hexagonal crystal inside.

The crystal was very beautiful, shimmering with a deep blue luster, with a halo of light flowing inside, dazzling and beautiful.

"Click!" Li Nianfan opened the lid.

"Master Li..." Lin Mufeng was about to warn Li Nianfan to be careful of the coldness of the ice crystal, but he saw that Li Nianfan had already taken out the ice crystal and was weighing it in his palm.

He immediately swallowed his words.

I really overthought it. What kind of person is Master Li? Does he need me to remind him?

The crystal felt cool to the touch, and a refreshing sensation instantly spread, making Li Nianfan feel refreshed.

However, Li Nianfan's brows slightly furrowed, and he said, "But, the temperature is a bit high, it can't serve as a refrigerator."

As soon as he said this, he felt the temperature of the crystal in his hand drop sharply, becoming bone-chillingly cold.

"Great stuff!" Li Nianfan was not surprised but delighted, "I should have thought of it earlier. This is likely voice-controlled! Now it can not only serve as a refrigerator but also as an air conditioner. Not bad, not bad."

He immediately placed the refrigerator on a rock by the stream.

He said, "Lower the temperature a bit more."

Crack, crack, crack—

A cold chill rushed out, and the surrounding stream began to freeze, gradually forming ice.

Lin Mufeng and the others stared at the ice crystal that was trying its best to perform, and they all cursed in their hearts: What a lickspittle!

Previously so arrogant, but now, when it's near a high person, it immediately pretends to be ordinary and innocent. Bah!

"Almost there." Li Nianfan looked at the refrigerator with great satisfaction and said to Lin Mufeng, "Thank you for your efforts, Elder Lin."

"It's nothing, Master Li, you're too polite," Lin Mufeng quickly replied.

He was excited inside. It seems Master Li is very satisfied with my performance this time. Keep it up, and the peak of my life is not far away!

"By the way, this box is a disposable item, you don't need to return it to me. It's useless anyway," Li Nianfan casually threw the packing box aside, not caring.

Lin Mufeng and the others' breathing suddenly became heavy, their eyes wide open, staring at the packing box, almost losing their ability to think.

No need to return it?

Disposable?

This is a supreme treasure, a great tool for storing special items, and you're using it once and throwing it away?

Absolutely... luxurious to the point of being unimaginable.

Is this the world of the big shots?

Lin Mufeng's heart pounded, he gritted his teeth, and quickly and secretly picked up the discarded packing box.

This trash, I'll take it!

"Master... Master Li." Lin Mufeng adjusted his mindset and then introduced, "These two are my friends. This one is Sun Qianshan, and the other is known as Daoist Tianyan, who has some expertise in chess."

Sun Qianshan and Daoist Tianyan simultaneously said respectfully, "Meeting Master Li."

"Oh? Skilled in chess?"

Li Nianfan's eyes instantly lit up, looking at Daoist Tianyan, seeing that he indeed had the appearance of a pure scholar.

He couldn't resist the urge to say, "Why don't we try a game now?"

It's not easy, finally, someone who knows how to play chess has come. Now I can enjoy myself.

Daoist Tianyan was naturally more than happy to, and he immediately said with great joy, "I have the same idea. Tianyan will show my clumsiness."

Seeing his excitement, he's probably also a Go enthusiast. This game is settled.

Li Nianfan was eagerly looking forward to it and immediately sat opposite Daoist Tianyan, setting up the chessboard.

Li Nianfan gestured to Daoist Tianyan, "You are the guest, take the white stones first."

Daoist Tianyan knew he was far from the expert's level, so he didn't refuse, picked up the white stones, and looked at the chessboard...
