Chapter 276: Ordinary Homestay Robot

Kaboom!

Thunder rumbled loudly in the sky.

A bolt of lightning flashed during the daytime.

Xing Guan simply recollected himself mid-air. He brushed away some charred hair from his beard. Then, he rode on a cloud toward the four-part architecture.

He picked a spot further away from the four-part architecture so he would not disturb the expert.

His cloud was a much cooler ride than the others. First of all, his cloud was in the shape of a spiral. Not only did he have clouds underneath him, he also had a lot of decorative small clouds around him. He looked like he was surrounded by clouds, it was very cool.

He was fast on a cloud, too. He soon arrived at the Fallen Immortal Mountain.

He remembered how powerful Xiao Bai was. He felt a chill. Even the doorman was so scary. Who was the owner of the four-part architecture exactly?

He groaned for a moment. He did not dare to ride on the cloud uphill so he parked his cloud at the foot of the mountain.

He had to show respect so he walked uphill on foot. He eliminated every element that the expert might be displeased with.

There were no obstacles or problems on his way up.

Soon, he saw the four-part architecture.

He jolted and walked slowly.

He took a deep breath and calmed himself down. Trembling, he knocked on the door.

Then, he waited anxiously as he felt his heart jump out of his throat.

It had been so many years since he felt that nervous.

He did not know why but at that moment, he was more fearful than when he interned at the Heavenly Palace. He was not that nervous when he visited all sorts of bigshots.

His gut feeling from those years of experience was telling him something. It was telling him that the expert was beyond extraordinary!

Creak.

The door swung open. It was still Xiao Bai.

He hurriedly bowed out of respect. He said in a trembling voice, “I’m a humble Taoist who’s passing through this land. Sorry for the unwanted visit. Please, forgive my intrusion.”

Xiao Bai stared at him and asked, “Do you know the rules of this place?”

Xing Guan was taken aback. He had an idea and flicked his wrist. He took out a rare Spiritual Stone and smiled apologetically. “My mistake. This is a small token of appreciation.”

Xiao Bai took the Spiritual Stone and simply crushed it, crushing the Spiritual Stone into bits.

Xiao Bai quietly stared at Xing Guan with red eyes.

Yikes—

Xing Guan was horrified. He did not know what to do. He could already sense his death. Even his beard started to stand on ends. He went cold all over.

Xiao Bai’s red eyes were the nightmare of his lifetime.

“I—I—I—I...” he stuttered. He almost cried and he started to spout nonsense. “The expert lives in this realm as an ordinary man. I shouldn’t have disturbed the expert. I’m wrong, can I please go?”

Xiao Bai stopped with the red eyes.

Xiao Bai calmly said, “My Master enjoys his disguise. Don’t ruin his experience as an ordinary man. Otherwise...instant death!”

Xing Guan was already on the ground. He was slightly baffled.

He did not expect to be alive. He hurriedly replied, “Uh-huh, I got it! Thanks for the tip. Thanks for sparing my life, Sir.”

Xiao Bai’s eyes were red again. “My name’s Xiao Bai. I’m just an ordinary homestay robot, got it?”

“Got it, I understand!”

Xing Guan did not know what a robot was but he did not dare to ask. He did not dare to speak. He only nodded frantically.

“Xiao Bai, why are you at the door for so long? Do we have guests?” asked Li Nianfan curiously.

Xiao Bai replied in a professional tone, “My noble master, there’s a stranger who’s passing by. Should we let him in?”

A stranger? How rare.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Anyone who comes is a guest, let him in.”

Xing Guan hurriedly got up and dusted the dirt off his butt. He rubbed his stiffened face and walked in.

He wanted to turn around and run. It was too dangerous, too scary.

However, he was like a bow on an arrow, he had to take his shot.

Xing Guan was a fantastic actor. He soon adjusted himself and said, “Sir, I’m a humble Taoist that was passing by. I saw this place and thought it was simple yet elegant. I got curious so I tried to visit. Please, forgive my intrusion.”

Li Nianfan smiled. “It’s not an intrusion. Please, sit.”

Suddenly, Urchin asked, smiling, “Brother Guan, do you remember me?”

Xing Guan looked at Urchin and jumped. “You-you’re...”

“That’s right. It’s me, the big Carp Demon.” Urchin immediately interrupted him while smiling. Then, he said, “Who would’ve thought I’d see you here at Mr. Li’s place. That’s fate.”

Li Nianfan was surprised. “You guys know each other?”

Urchin replied honestly, “Yeah, it’s been a while. He’s one of my oldest friends. Mr. Li, let me introduce you. This is Taoist Xinghe.”

It seemed like the old man was also a cultivator.

So, Urchin was a Carp Demon. What was the old man?

Li Nianfan nodded. He met a lot of cultivators so he did not ask a lot of questions. He smiled and said, “I see, Taoist Xinghe. My name’s Li Nianfan.”

Taoist Xinghe hurriedly saluted, “Mr. Li.”

He suddenly ran into a friend so he felt much calmer. He started to observe his surroundings carefully.

There were a lot of people in the small yard. Next to Urchin was a black-robed elder with a long sword. He was a sword cultivator but Xing Guan could not figure out how powerful he was.

He glanced at the Fire Phoenix and Daji. They were more stunning than the Seventh Princess. He would not dare to offend them.

Huh? That little fox was a Nine-Tailed Fox?

The little dragon girl, Dragin. Did the Dragon King bring his daughter here?

There was a little human girl, too. However, her aura was extraordinary. He felt like she might devour his powers. She was awesome.

Bigshots. A house full of bigshots. He could not mess with any of them.

Plop!

He saw a Firefinch Demon at the corner of the yard. It laid an egg, which fell safely into the egg basket.

“Cool!”

His heart raced as his worldview shattered. He hurriedly looked away and noticed everyone had a bowl in hand.

A bunch of bigshots holding bowls. It was somehow quite a funny sight.

He noticed that everyone was gathered around a pot. The pot had some leftovers and it smelled good.

What a nice scent.

He sniffed and looked closely at the leftovers in the pot.

His eyes widened with shock. The Immortal Qi was intense in the pot. Power of Law seemed to flow in it!

Although it was just the leftovers, it still felt overwhelming.

“Heavenly Soup, this must be Heavenly Soup!”

The taste must be smooth and lingering. It shimmered in its essence.

He was a man of knowledge and he was also a foodie. He soon detected it was an extraordinary soup!

Of course. This was the house of the expert. Also, so many bigshots were sitting around with bowls. How could the soup be ordinary?

Taoist Xinghe felt his heart race. He started to tear up. He took in the aroma in the air and gulped.

Li Nianfan felt slightly awkward. “Taoist Xinghe, how unfortunate. We just finished the dessert soup. Sorry about that.”

Taoist Xinghe licked his lips and asked, “Mr. Li, there’s still a bit left in the pot, right?”

Li Nianfan shook his head and said, “That’s the leftovers. I’m about to throw it away. It’d be rude if I let you drink that.”

“It’s not rude at all.”

Taoist Xinghe felt a sting in his heart. He still tried his best to say, “Mr. Li, there’s still a lot left in the pot. I don’t think it’s considered leftovers. Also, it smells so good, I’m getting hungry. I really want to try it and it’d be a waste to throw it away.”

“That...isn’t good,” frowned Li Nianfan.

Urchin explained, “Mr. Li, cultivators don’t have a lot of hobbies, so they never want to miss out on good food.”

True. Cultivators were very passionate about their likes and dislikes because they lived for a long time.

Li Nianfan hesitated and said, “Fine. If you don’t mind, please, help yourself.”

“Thank you, Mr. Li.”

Taoist Xinghe was overjoyed. He looked at Urchin with gratefulness and hurriedly scooped a bowl for himself.

He sipped on it.

Slurp!

He was drunk from the delicious flavor. The smoothness of the milk flowed into his throat. It felt like a massage.

He did not chug it down. Instead, he savored it.

The milk of the Five-Color-Sacred Cow. Honey from the Golden Bees. And...that papaya. Power of Law came from the papaya. Was it perhaps a Spiritual Root?

So many treasures in such a small pot!

Luxurious, too luxurious!

He never had the chance to taste such delicacy before, not even when he interned at the Heavenly Palace. The ambrosia would definitely be the final dessert of the Flat Peach Feast!

Thankfully, he shamelessly asked to try it. Otherwise, he would have missed out and regretted it for the rest of his life.

Who would have thought that the old glory days were over but he was still lucky enough to taste such delicacy? Life was full of pleasant surprises!

Soon, the bowl of soup was finished. He still tried to scoop out the remaining leftovers. He would wash it down with water to avoid wasting a single drop, but he stayed rational.

Li Nianfan silently stood by and watched.

No wonder he would take the leftovers. The old man was a classic foodie.

However, it meant that his cooking was truly delicious. People loved his cooking no matter who it was.

Taoist Xinghe put down his bowl and complimented, “Delicious. So delicious! I’ve never eaten anything so delicious in my entire life.”

Li Nianfan felt slightly awkward. “Taoist Xinghe, that’s making me slightly embarrassed. I’m sorry you had to eat the leftovers.”

Taoist Xinghe jumped. He could not allow a bigshot to apologize to him. He hurriedly smiled apologetically and said, “No, not at all! Mr. Li, I should thank you for the delicious food.”

“Haha, you’re welcome.” Li Nianfan laughed. No wonder he was friends with Urchin. He was also another friendly cultivator.

He suddenly remembered the seed he had with him. It would dry out and die if he did not plant it.

That was his wine gourd. How could he forget?

He hurriedly stood up and said, “Everyone, I suddenly remembered that I have to plant something in the backyard. Excuse me for a moment.”
