Chapter 32: Master, I Want Another Bowl_1

Cangli Mountain Range.

Overnight, this place seemed to have shifted realms; at a glance, countless mountains had collapsed, the earth had cracked open with fissures stretching outwards, terrifyingly unending.

Above the shattered earth, dark clouds loomed, with the roars of terrifying beasts intermittently piercing the sky.

It was as if it had transformed into a land of Asuras.

And at this moment.

The entire Southern Territory.

Countless powerful beings were racing toward the Cangli Mountain Range with great haste.

The news of what had happened there tugged at everyone’s hearts.

Not only that, many ancient teleportation arrays had been activated.

These ancient arrays were left behind by the various Holy Lands for mutual aid and would be activated in times of crisis threatening the survival of the Xuantian Realm. Many clans and families of the Holy Lands would then come to assist via these arrays.

…

At this moment.

Li Fan, having slept soundly through the night, woke up.

Gently rubbing Bai Xiaoqing in his arms, Li Fan smiled and stretched leisurely.

On the table, laid the money given by Luo Ming and Hong Xuan.

“I haven’t checked how much money they gave.”

Li Fan approached, ready to take a look.

It felt heavy, surely it couldn’t be too little.

However, upon opening it, he was instantly taken aback.

Inside the two brocade boxes, were luminous and translucent “stones”!

Atop the stones seemed to hover a white mist.

Li Fan was stunned; this wasn’t gold, nor was it jewelry…

Could these actually be the legendary Spirit Stones?!

Li Fan instantly understood!

Luo Ming and Hong Xuan were likely cultivators.

And for them, so-called gold and silver were useless; Spirit Stones were their “money.”

Thus, they had given him Spirit Stones.

Thinking this, Li Fan couldn’t help but show a delighted smile; even as a mortal, he understood the value of Spirit Stones.

They were very important to cultivators.

And these Spirit Stones were probably… the lowest grade, inferior Spirit Stones?

Even inferior Spirit Stones were quite sufficient.

At that moment, Bai Xiaoqing also leapt onto the table, and upon glancing at the “inferior Spirit Stones” in the box, was utterly astounded.

Meow… so many Immortal Stones?

This is way too generous!

Even coming from the White Tiger Imperial Clan, one rarely saw so many Immortal Stones in the clan…

Those were meant for immortals!

In the entire Xuantian Realm, only some Great Holy Lands had such treasures.

“Do you like these stones too?”

Li Fan patted Bai Xiaoqing’s head, smiling as he closed the brocade box.

Let’s keep them, for use when we can cultivate in the future.

Stepping out of the courtyard, he saw that Nan Feng and Zi Ling were already waiting at the door.

“Master… we, we wanted to fetch some water to wash our faces, but…”

Nan Feng began uneasily.

They had gone to draw water but found that it was a Divine Spring—merely approaching the well made them too daunted to draw closer, for it was far too sacred.

So, they didn’t know where else to fetch water from.

Hearing this, Li Fan chuckled, “I’ll do it.”

The well was a bit too deep for two delicate girls indeed.

He led them to the edge of the spring, calmly set down the bucket, and drew up a full pail of water.

“Warm it up before washing. I’ve already split the wood over there.”

Li Fan pointed to a pile of wood.

But, Zi Ling and Nan Feng were dumbstruck, shocked that this elder was intending to use such a divine spring for washing his face?!

Heaven…

This was sheer extravagance…

And the wood for the fire, it was Xuanhuo Wood…

What sort of wealth did this person possess?

Zi Ling was stunned momentarily, but quickly recovered, eagerly responding, “As you wish, Master!”

She held the water and ran back and forth.

“Sister, come quickly, oh my goodness, washing my face with Holy Spring Water? I’ve never been this extravagant before, this must be so nourishing for the skin!”

As she spoke, she quickly started a fire.

Once the water was heated, the two of them washed their faces, and the moment the hot Holy Spring Water touched their skin, their appearances became even more radiant, as if their skin was made of the finest cream.

“This Holy Spring Water… I’m almost tempted to drink it!”

Zi Ling’s eyes went wide with desire.

Just washing her face, she felt as if her skin and bones had undergone a transformation.

If she could take just a sip, she might breakthrough on the spot, right?

“Don’t… don’t embarrass our teacher.”

Nan Feng took a deep breath and said, “Zi Ling, we, we have to forget all about our poor life in the Holy Land and start getting used to… getting used to everything here.”

As she said this, she herself found it somewhat hard to accept; after all, the two of them were from the Holy Land, but compared to this place, they seemed no better than beggars.

“Are you done washing your faces?”

Li Fan came over and smiled, “Pour the water into the vegetable garden, don’t waste it, and then come over for breakfast.”

Hearing Li Fan’s words, they immediately carried the water over to the small vegetable garden, but upon seeing the “vegetable garden,” both of them were once again astonished.

“The Senior said… this is a vegetable garden? This… the poorest among these must be Holy Medicines, right?”

Zi Ling was dumbfounded.

In the garden, cabbages, bok choys, radishes, and such were growing impressively well!

But Nan Feng and Zi Ling could see that these cabbages, bok choys, and the like, all had a natural charm and were infused with the terrifying aura of Holy Spirit!

This was clearly a medicinal patch, planted with unimaginably holy items.

“No wonder it needs to be watered with Holy Spring…”

Nan Feng’s expression was complex as she poured the water from the basin into the garden.

After they finished, they returned to the stone table where Li Fan had already prepared breakfast.

“The earth chickens haven’t been laying eggs diligently these past days, so we’ll have to settle for vegetable porridge. There are no eggs, so let’s make do with this for now.”

Li Fan smiled, handed chopsticks to them, and began to eat.

They picked up their bowls, smelling the richly fragrant vegetable porridge!

That was the scent of Holy Medicine!

“Sister, am I dreaming?”

Zi Ling looked at Nan Feng with a trembling voice.

That’s Holy Medicine… even a single leaf or a section of the stem would be treasured in the Three Absolutes Holy Land and would be used with great care, typically in concocting Holy Elixirs combined with other herbs…

Yet here, it was just a breakfast?

This was too frightening…

Holding her bowl, Nan Feng also found it absurd, it was something you couldn’t even beg for in the Holy Land…

“Eat up, it won’t taste good once it turns cold.”

Li Fan filled a bowl for Xiao Bai, then started eating as well.

Meow meow… Shocked, right? What Holy Land, what noble family, in front of the master, are all lifestyles of beggars… Bai Xiaoqing held her own bowl with her little paws and began to eat.

Exchanging glances, Nan Feng and Zi Ling couldn’t believe it; even the pets were eating Holy Medicine!

They felt as if the life they had lived before wasn’t fit for humans.

Cats had it better than humans.

After a mental struggle, they finally accepted the reality that they were about to transition from a beggar-like existence to a life of luxury.

Then, they began to eat their porridge!

The sweet porridge melted in their mouths!

And then, spiritual energy exploded!

Holy spiritual energy cleansed their entire bodies!

Boom!

Their auras surged dramatically at that moment!

Nan Feng directly broke through to the Divided Spirit Eighth Heaven!

Zi Ling also made her breakthrough to the Divided Spirit Seventh Heaven.

After finishing a bowl of porridge, the two sisters’ spirits soared with joy!

“Teacher, I want another bowl!”

Zi Ling held out her bowl, looking at Li Fan eagerly.

“Teacher, I want another bowl too!”

Nan Feng, too, lost all semblance of restraint in that moment; this was an unparalleled opportunity.

Bai Xiaoqing was taken aback for a moment; were these sisters really so shameless?

She couldn’t resist rubbing her head against Li Fan as well, “Meow meow~~”
