Chapter 258: Tell You A Huge Secret

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Three days went by in the blink of an eye.

It smelled nice at the four-part architecture. The aroma of alcohol was mesmerizing.

Dragin stood next to the cauldron. She looked up in a daze and salivated.

She sniffed it hard and looked like she was drunk.

She was excited as she said, “Brother, the alcohol smells so good. When can we drink it?”

The aroma of alcohol was different from the smell of food. It was intense and rich.

Li Nianfan shook his head. He laughed and said, “We’ll have to wait. However, you can’t drink it because you’re too young.”

“Argh! No!” Dragin immediately protested. “Brother, I’m not young anymore!”

Li Nianfan did not say anything. He took out a letter instead. The letter was from Nanan.

Nanan had been away for more than three months.

Li Nianfan sighed and smiled.

Li Nianfan felt like a proud parent who had a successful kid living abroad.

The kid knew how to send letters, too, and it seemed like she did not forget her Brother Nianfan. He did not know how she was doing.

The Holy Emperor was sitting respectfully across Li Nianfan. He was sipping gently on a cup of tea.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “Holy Emperor, you don’t need to do that. Tea should be savored, but you can drink more than that.”

The Holy Emperor almost cried from surprise. He hurriedly said, “Mr. Li, this is such good tea. I can’t bear to drink it all in one go. Don’t mind me, this is just my habit of drinking tea.”

Actually, he wanted to drink faster, too, but the tea would not allow him to do so!

He could quickly absorb the previous tea that contained Insights. However, the tea he was drinking now had the Power of Law. It was on another level. If he drank it too fast, his brains would probably explode.

He was too weak. He was barely deserving of this tea. The opportunity was right in front of him but he was not fortunate enough to enjoy it.

He felt as if he was an ordinary man eating expensive medicine. He just could not handle it.

There was no such thing as ‘the stronger the better’ when it came to elixirs in the Immortal Realm. Some elixirs had unique properties. Ordinary people could improve from drinking it or die from it!

Li Nianfan laughed and opened the letter.

It was a long letter detailing the events that Nanan had been through recently. The Immortal Realm was exciting and interesting. She wrote about how she had defeated demons, the fun stories, and what sceneries she got to experience.

She mentioned at the end of the letter that she was going to participate in a Cultivators Convention. It was a very interesting and big event.

It was time for him to go out and have fun, too.

Li Nianfan was interested. He asked curiously, “Is the Cultivators Convention far away from here?”

The Holy Emperor hurriedly said, “Mr. Li, it’s slightly further than the Azure Ville.”

“So far?” Li Nianfan frowned slightly.

He glanced at the Fire Phoenix and started hinting like crazy, “If we walk, I’m afraid we’ll never arrive in time. Too bad I’m not a cultivator. Otherwise, I’d love to go check out the convention. It would be nice if someone could take me there.”

It was almost impossible to ride the Fire Phoenix. However, he was close to the Fire Phoenix. Perhaps she would be willing to give him a ride?

He had nothing to lose anyway.

He waited for a while. The Fire Phoenix blinked at him, but she did not say anything.

Li Nianfan sighed. “It seems like nobody will take me there.”

He thought too much.

The Holy Emperor was thrilled by the side. How could he miss an opportunity like that? He hurriedly said, “Mr. Li, if you want to go, you can come with me.”

Li Nianfan was excited. “You want to go, too?”

The Holy Emperor nodded and said, “To be honest, I’m getting prepared to go there. Cultivator Mengji’s going, too.”

“Oh? Brother Yao’s going too?” Li Nianfan was pleasantly surprised. He knew that Yao Mengji had that skyship. It would be convenient.

The Holy Emperor immediately said, “Yeah, I’ll book the tickets. He’ll go for sure!”

Brother Mengji would put aside whatever important task he had at hand if he could serve the expert. How could he not go?

“Alright, then. Let’s go as a group.” Li Nianfan was joyous. Then, he asked, “Daji, do you want to go check it out, too?”

Daji groaned for a moment. She suddenly replied, “Actually, Sister Fire Phoenix and I are about to go out.”

Li Nianfan was slightly taken aback. He looked at the Fire Phoenix. Then, he looked at Daji.

Ever since they bathed together, the two women had become so close!

They bathed together all the time and now, they were going out on a trip together. Li Nianfan felt like he was about to be abandoned.

However, Daji would be safe in the company of the Fire Phoenix.

He said, “Alright, nice. Be careful.”

Daji nodded. She said, “Take care of yourself, too.”

The Fire Phoenix reminded Dragin, “Dragin, stay with the Master. Be obedient and do your chores. Don’t be naughty and lazy!”

“Yeah, I will!” Dragin looked excited as she nodded and promised.

Li Nianfan saluted the Holy Emperor, “Holy Emperor, sorry for the trouble but could you help me ask Brother Yao to let me tag along?”

The Holy Emperor was flushed from excitement. He immediately stood up and said, “Don’t worry, Mr. Li. I’ll notify Cultivator Mengji at once.”

He walked out from the four-part architecture. Then, he laughed out loud. He was overjoyed.

He did not expect to receive a task from the expert. He was happy at the thought of it. He had to tell Yao Mengji the good news. He would cry out of gratefulness if he knew about the opportunity the Holy Emperor was about to give him.

Li Nianfan looked at Daji and the Fire Phoenix at the four-part architecture. He asked, “Daji, when are you girls leaving?”

Daji said, “I was about to say goodbye but the Holy Emperor showed up.”

“You’re leaving now?” Li Nianfan arched his eyebrow. He asked, “Did you pack your things?”

Daji nodded, “Yes, it won’t be long anyway.”

Li Nianfan did not say anything. That was his first time being away from Daji. He felt bad.

He saw the big cauldron and suddenly asked, “The alcohol’s almost ready. Why don’t you try some before you leave?”

Daji nodded obediently and said, “Yeah, I’ll listen to you.”

Li Nianfan smiled and walked to the cauldron. He slowly lifted the lid.

Suddenly, the aroma of the alcohol erupted like a volcano, and the yard was filled with a rich aroma.

It was mesmerizing. Everyone started to blush at the smell of it.

They could get drunk just from the aroma.

The alcohol aroma was intense but it was nice.

Li Nianfan took out a ladle and scooped out some alcohol. Then, he poured it into a ceramic wine glass.

The alcohol was not processed in a complex way but it was very clear. There were no impurities in the alcohol and the liquid was smooth and clear like water from a natural fountain in the woods.

The alcohol reflected the color of the ceramic wine glass so it looked a bit greenish.

Li Nianfan gulped, too.

He had to admit that beautiful alcohol was as mesmerizing as beautiful women.

They were not lovers of alcohol but they genuinely complimented, “Nice wine!”

Li Nianfan gave Daji and the Fire Phoenix their glasses. He poured one for himself at the same time.

Dragin protested by jumping around at the side, “Brother, I want one, too, I want one too!”

Li Nianfan smiled awkwardly. He gave Dragin a small cup and said, “Kids can only try a little bit.”

“The wine’s just right. I can bring it with me on the trip.” Li Nianfan chuckled and raised his wine glass. “Everyone, cheers!”

Daji, the Fire Phoenix, and Dragin raised their glasses.

“Cheers!”

Then, they drank it in one go.

“Wow!” everyone exclaimed.

The wine was rich and intense. It slowly went down their throats and instantly relaxed them.

The alcohol was cool to the taste. However, it heated up like a fire when it was swallowed. It made them flush instantly—very exciting and nice.

The aroma of the alcohol was still in their mouths.

“Delicious!” Li Nianfan smacked his lips. He started to develop new opinions on alcohol.

With that one shot, he realized he was in love with drinking.

He said, “I have to bring a jar of this beautiful wine with me when I leave for the trip.”

“The wine…”

Daji stumbled backward slightly. She was blushing red.

The Fire Phoenix was blushing, too. She kept taking deep breaths. Her stomach felt like it was on fire. She was trying to control the alcohol.

The wine…was slightly scary!

It was made with different types of Spiritual Roots as its base material. Then, Spiritual Water was added. Moreover, it was personally made by the expert with the Xuanyuan Sea Spell Cauldron that was a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. It had great water properties. How could it not be scary?

Li Nianfan asked, “Daji, do you want to rest a while before you go?”

A white fox tail appeared under her dress for a moment. She hurriedly waved and said, “I’m fine. I didn’t know the alcohol would be so strong. I wasn’t ready for that.”

The Fire Phoenix said, “Sir, we’ll be leaving now.”

Li Nianfan nodded and reminded her, “Oh, yeah. Goddess Fire Phoenix, please, take care of Daji for me. Safety’s first.”

He watched Daji and the Fire Phoenix walk out of the four-part architecture. Dragin flopped onto the table before Li Nianfan could get sentimental.

Dragin was not in her human form anymore. Her tail appeared again. So did her scales. Her cheeks were also covered in scales.

“I told you. Little kids shouldn’t drink alcohol. Your alcohol tolerance…” Li Nianfan shook his head.

He was about to lift Dragin up. However, Dragin suddenly leaped up.

“I’m a Dragon girl!”

She squinted and walked from side to side while she mumbled, “No, wait, I’m a happy little carp!”

She drunkenly looked at Li Nianfan and mumbled, “Brother, let me tell you a huge secret. My ancestor’s alive. He’s a giant carp. He’s this big. Awesome, right?”
