I Might Be A Fake Cultivator
chapter-225

After being horrendously ravaged, An Lin finally accepted his fate and lay on the ground with an expression filled with despair.

Lin Junjun’s beautiful features appeared in front of his eyes again. Even though she wore an enchanting smile, in An Lin’s eyes, her expression looked akin to the sinister smile of the devil.

“Did my artworks make for good viewing for Mr. An?” Lin Junjun asked with a smile.

“Master Tianyu’s artworks are so profound and exquisite, they are truly unmatched by anyone!” An Lin feebly continued with his words of praise.

“That’s good to hear, I actually have one last piece of art for you to critique.” Her voice was soft and mellow like a gently flowing creek, but An Lin couldn’t help but shiver at the sound.

He almost leaped up in fright. “There’s still more!?”

Lin Junjun’s brows furrowed slightly. “Why, you don’t like my art?”

“I do… I love your art.” An Lin forced a smile onto his face. If he had a mirror, he would discover that the smile on his face was even more hideous than a grimace.

An Lin stood up with difficulty and limped toward Lin Junjun. Her final piece of artwork was probably her finishing technique, this notion made him extremely uneasy.

However, when the artwork was presented before his eyes, he was immediately rooted to the spot.

The artwork depicted an extremely life-like white crane soaring through a cluster of mountains. The artwork exuded a sense of ethereal grace and was exquisitely beautiful; the only thing missing was a set of eyes which hadn’t yet been drawn onto the white crane.

He stared blankly at the familiar artwork and after a long while, he finally opened his mouth. “This is… the huge-eyed crane!?”

Lin Junjun was initially quite satisfied with An Lin’s reaction, but her chest tightened immediately at his remark. “Heh, it is indeed that huge-eyed crane… The white crane in the artwork only became the huge-eyed crane due to a certain rude person’s intrusion. Now, I’ve drawn it again to show you what the end product should look like.”

“Eh…?” An Lin blinked at Lin Junjun’s words, but a hint of speculation was already surfacing in his mind.

Lin Junjun gently touched her paintbrush to the canvas, imbuing the white crane with a pair of eyes and completing the artwork.

A pair of vivid, lifelike eyes appeared on the white crane’s head.

Instantly, vital energy began to surge violently all around them and white mist began to filter out from the artwork.

An Lin saw the projection of the cluster of mountains and heard the sweet-sounding call of a white crane in the small pavilion.

A white figure leaped out from the canvas. It was so beautiful, with its long, snowy white body, wide yet flexible wings, a proud, long neck, and big, vibrant eyes.

An Lin stared at the white crane with wide eyes and his mouth agape, seemingly shocked into silence.

Lin Junjun was very satisfied with An Lin’s expression. This perfect artwork was her real trump card. So An Lin insulted her artwork in the past? Well, this was the best way to slap An Lin in the face!

She raised her head to look up at the white crane as a light smile surfaced on her face.

But her smile soon froze on her face as her cherry lips became slightly agape, and she stared in disbelief up at the white crane flying in circles within the pavilion.

The white crane did indeed have a pair of big, vibrant eyes. Yes, its eyes were even bigger than its head…

Its bulbous eyes jutted out like two black watermelons as it flew around slowly in a hilarious display.

An Lin’s lips trembled violently and his face turned bright red as he tried to suppress his laughter.

Don’t laugh, don’t laugh…

Lin Junjun’s body swayed slightly as if she had received a heavy psychological blow. “The image comes from the heart… this huge-eyed crane reflects the image in my heart. My Dao Heart is still unable to break through this obstacle…”

Plop!

Finally, the two huge eyes were unable to support their own weight and detached themselves from the white crane’s head before tumbling to the ground.

The white crane disappeared into a puddle of ink, and only its huge eyes were left to roll about, and they slowly rolled toward An Lin.

The eyes were extremely lifelike, and they blinked at An Lin innocently.

“Puahahaha…” An Lin couldn’t hold it in any longer and burst into laughter as he pointed at the huge eyeballs. “Those f*cking eyes are the actual body, right?!”

Immediately after this, his body began to tremble involuntarily.

There’s killing intent!

He looked up at Lin Junjun and was greeted to the sight of countless fist projections burying him from every direction.

Thump! Thump! Thump!…

Bang! Bang! Bang!…

Clatter! Clatter! Clatter!…

Puff! Puff! Puff!…

After a one-sided beating, An Lin fell to the ground with a bloody nose and swollen face, unable to laugh any longer.

Lin Junjun clapped her slim hands together as she suddenly realized something.

As expected it was much more convenient and satisfying to vent your rage by your own hands.

…

…

After a long while, An Lin finally managed to somewhat recover after applying some ointment to himself. After that, he began to discuss the next order of business with Lin Junjun.

“Next, tell me all the information you have about the Purple Star Research Institute. I’ll take all the information you have!” Lin Junjun calmed her anger and spoke.

An Lin’s eyes lit up, he knew it was time to further increase his wealth.

Lin Junjun’s heart shuddered for some reason after seeing An Lin’s expression, and she hurriedly posed a question, “Wait, umm… approximately how much information do you have left?”

An Lin stroked his chin and thought about it for a short while. “Uh… I haven’t counted before, all types of symbols, formations, research papers, and mechanical blueprints combined… it comes to a total of around one or two hundred…”

“Another one or two hundred!? How… how do you have so many more! You didn’t just steal the mastermind, did you?” Lin Junjun exclaimed in shock.

“Oh, no, I didn’t get that far, I was kicked after receiving half the information in the mastermind,” An Lin replied honestly.

Lin Junjun: “…”

“So, you want all of it, right?” An Lin asked.

He could already envision himself becoming the youngest rich tycoon of the immortal world. Just the thought of it was getting him a little worked up.

“Er…” Lin Junjun averted her gaze. “The weather is nice today.”

“M-hm, the weather is indeed not bad.” An Lin nodded before continuing in his questioning, “Didn’t you say you’d take all the information I had? I’m gonna bring it all out now.”

Lin Junjun’s lips twitched slightly as she brought out 320 vital stones from her storage ring and cleared her throat. “Let’s have forty formations first!”

Forty formations? That will amount to eighty thousand spirit stones per formation? An Lin blinked and thought back to the treasures he had exchanged in the past. The price Lin Junjun was offering this time was not bad. In fact, it was a little bit better than the last time.

An Lin drew up forty formations for Lin Junjun as requested and gleefully stowed away the 320 vital stones before turning to stare at Lin Junjun as his eyes glowed with anticipation.

“What are you still looking at me for?” A light blush appeared on Lin Junjun’s porcelain-like features.

“I still have symbols, research papers, and mechanical blueprints. How many would Master Tianyu like?” An Lin continued to stare at her with anticipation.

Lin Junjun: “…”

Can I just say none… Lin Junjun was on the brink of collapse.

She had originally thought that she would be able to shock An Lin with the amount of money she was offering, but she did not expect An Lin to have such huge quantities of information. If things continued like this, she was about to be thoroughly embarrassed again…

“Oh, the weather sure is fine today.”

“Master Tianyu, you’ve already said that. The weather is indeed fantastic today, but can we get back to business…”

“The weather is too good today, so I have to take this opportunity to go look at some scenery.”

Lin Junjun did not wait for a reply from An Lin, and she immediately withdrew the concealment spell formation before fleeing into the air.

“Hey! Then what about all this information that I have left?!” An Lin yelled.

“Save it for next time!”

Lin Junjun’s gentle voice disappeared along with her escaping figure.

An Lin stared after her and blinked vacantly.

He then shook his head in resignation.

“Sigh, I only earned 3.2 million spirit stones. I originally planned to take this opportunity to accumulate ten million spirit stones and repay my huge debt to Celestial Maiden Chang’e…”

Aside from the few pieces of information that he couldn’t tell anyone, there were still 130 pieces of information he could exchange for profit. Hopefully, Master Tianyu could bring more spirit stones with her next time…
