I Turn Out to Be a Grand Master
chapter-26

Li Xuanmen had seen a great cultivator who pretended to be a mortal and liked to play in the mortal world in a storybook. According to the storybook, such a great senior would have all sorts of quirks, and pretending to be a mortal was just one of them.

"Senior Liu, Yu Linglong is here to visit."

Yu Linglong shouted loudly at the door to tell Liu Changgong that she was here.

Soon, a clear voice came from inside.

"Oh, it's Fairy Linglong. I'm in the small courtyard at the back. You can come in by yourself."

Yu Linglong replied respectfully, "Okay!"

She brought Li Xuanmen into this small shop that hid the universe.

Li Xuanmen heard the voice of this senior and thought to himself, "This senior's voice sounds quite young."

The two of them walked straight into the backyard.

They saw a young man standing at the door of a room in the backyard. The young man had a handsome appearance and an extraordinary temperament. He was holding a snow-white fox in his hand and stroking it continuously.

When the young man saw them, he quickly called the two of them in. "Hurry up and come in. It's quite cold outside. There's a brazier inside."

Yu Linglong walked in very obediently. Li Xuanmen followed behind her and walked closer.

When he entered, he had already sized up the young man. Indeed, he could not sense a single bit of cultivation from this young man.

In Li Xuanmen's eyes, this point immediately caused him to feel a sense of respect. His cultivation was actually not visible at all. He really looked like a mortal. Indeed, he was an expert whose cultivation far surpassed his own.

However, Li Xuanmen was a little puzzled. Wasn't this senior a little too young? Although those who were successful in cultivation would return to their youth, their eyes still had the vicissitudes of life. However, this senior's eyes were still so clear.

"Junior Li Xuanmen greets Senior."

Li Xuanmen could not see Liu Changgong's depth, so he could only bow obediently.

Liu Changgong smiled and nodded. This small courtyard of his did not have many people coming all year round. It was only after Yu Linglong that it gradually became popular. It was a good thing that he could get to know more people.

"Come in, come in."

Liu Changgong warmly welcomed them.

He did not know why the weather suddenly turned cold this morning. He thought of the treasure sent by the Huang Ze. He quickly tried it and placed it in the brazier. Sure enough, he could not feel the cold anymore. It was very warm.

Liu Changgong called for them to get closer to the brazier. He found that the place beside the brazier was filled with these small animals. He could only say, "Take out the brazier and get closer. This way, it will be warmer."

"Yes, Senior." Yu Linglong had always followed Liu Changgong's instructions.

Liu Changgong liked this female cultivator, Yu Linglong. She was polite, obedient, sensible, and very infatuated with the calligraphy and painting that he was good at. Most importantly, her face and body were very beautiful. His heart, which had been silent for so many years, was a little moved.

Unfortunately, she was a cultivator and he was only a mortal. There was no possibility between the two of them.

Yu Linglong was ready to listen to Liu Changgong's instructions to bring out the brazier to get warm. Li Xuanmen immediately said politely, "I'll do it. Fairy Linglong, you can sit down."

Li Xuanmen walked to the brazier and saw the small animals surrounding it.

He was shocked when he saw them. Wasn't this a great demon who had already formed a demon core? Why was it squatting in front of the brazier like an ordinary house cat to keep warm? For a moment, he did not dare to go forward.

The black cat seemed to have sensed Li Xuanmen's gaze. It glanced at him and slowly moved its body away, revealing the brazier behind.

Li Xuanmen's expression was hesitant, but when he thought of Linglong beside him and the fact that this cat demon was this senior's pet, it should not be able to do anything to him, right?

Thinking of this, Li Xuanmen summoned up his courage and bent down to take the brazier.

Sure enough, the black cat only glanced at him and didn't make things difficult for him.

As he held the brazier in his hand, he felt a wave of heat coming from within.

"Isn't this just an ordinary brazier? How..."

It turned out that Li Xuanmen had long been a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Not to say that it was invulnerable, but it was definitely difficult for ordinary water and fire to enter his body. In the end, he felt a burning sensation on the brazier.

This warmth was even emitting pure spiritual energy. After carefully sensing it, he even felt that his cultivation level had increased slightly.

Li Xuanmen couldn't suppress his curiosity and couldn't help but reach out to fiddle with the brazier.

In the end, he found a round red bead.

All the heat was emitted from this bead. When he took a closer look, Li Xuanmen was completely stunned.

His eyes were wide open and his face was filled with disbelief. His expression was as if he had seen a ghost.

"Fire... Fire Essence?!"

As the imperial family of Great Xia, Li Xuanmen naturally had some records of some heavenly and earthly treasures. Moreover, there was also a Fire Essence in the imperial treasury. This was also the reason why the imperial family of Great Xia always had many Nascent Soul stage cultivators.

Gulp--

Li Xuanmen gulped and turned back to look at the young man who was chatting with Yu Linglong. The shock in his heart was simply indescribable.

Fairy Linglong was right. This senior was really a peerless expert. Even the Dharma Idol stage Daoist Master Zhu Zhao had to be humble and seek advice from him.

Li Xuanmen knew that a heavenly and earthly treasure like the Fire Essence had its uses. Moreover, the Fire Essence was extremely rare.

If such a Fire Essence was taken out, it was enough to ensure that the reputation of a sect like the Grand Moon Sect would not be tarnished. It would even set off a bloody storm in the cultivation world of the Great Xia Kingdom, causing countless Golden Core and Nascent Soul stage cultivators and even Daoist Master Fa Xiang to fight each other.

But such a good thing was actually made into a brazier by this senior...

How extravagant! How extravagant! How extravagant! How powerful must his realm be for such a cultivator!?

"What are you doing?"

Yu Linglong looked at Li Xuanmen who was always holding a brazier in a daze like an idiot and finally couldn't help but remind him.

"I'm coming, I'm coming..." Li Xuanmen immediately woke up when he heard that. Then, he reluctantly put the Fire Essence back into the brazier and came back with the brazier.

This time, his attitude toward Liu Changgong was completely different. He was even more obedient than the rabbit on the ground and more respectful than Yu Linglong.

He squatted down and placed the brazier in the middle of the group. Instantly, a wave of warmth came over.

Liu Changgong felt the warmth coming over and could not help but say, "Fairy Linglong, how is this brazier? Is it warm?"

"Warm, it's really warm. I can't even feel a bit of smoke and dryness. Linglong has never used such a nice and comfortable brazier."

Li Xuanmen felt the warmth in the brazier and could not help but exclaim in his heart, 'It's comfortable! It's too comfortable! How can I not feel comfortable when I use this Fire Essence to keep warm? It's as if I'm sitting on the eye of a spiritual energy spring after being baked for a while.'
