Chapter 136: Senior Liu Is Truly a Peerless Expert
Lord Xinghe greeted w.a.n.g Yuyan and Venerable Zhu Zhao.
“I’ll bring Li Li to visit Senior. I’ll be right back.”
Following that, Lord Xinghe waved his sleeve, and Li Li and he instantly disappeared from the spot.
Li Li only felt that the scene before his eyes suddenly blurred. Very soon, the scene before his eyes became clear again.
In just an instant, he had already stood at the entrance of a very ordinary small shop in the countryside.
On the door of the small shop was written:
Immortal’s Destiny Small Shop
The four large characters were extremely powerful.
The calligraphy on the signboard was vigorous and powerful, and the style was strict. With a single glance, one could tell that he was an expert in calligraphy.
Li Li was just about to take a closer look when he was pulled to the side by a great force.
Sacred Lord Brahma was standing behind him.
“When we enter later, you can just pretend to be mute. If I tell you to speak, then speak. I didn’t tell you to speak, you can’t say a single word. Do you understand?”
“Junior understands.”
Li Li nodded like he was pounding garlic.
He naturally had to obey his father-in-law’s orders. After all, his marriage with w.a.n.g Yuyan would still depend on Sacred Lord Brahma in the future.
Li Li’s thoughts had already jumped to the time when he and w.a.n.g Yuyan had entered the bridal chamber.
He was intimate with the fairy and entangled with her…
Then, he followed behind Sacred Lord Brahma like a zombie.
Lord Xinghe didn’t notice Li Li’s strange behavior. He brought Li Li to the front of the store and gently knocked on the door. Then, he slightly bent his back and waited respectfully.
Li Li, who was following behind him, also became nervous when he saw Sacred Lord Brahma’s att.i.tude.
He had never seen the Sacred Lord Brahma, who was a top-tier cultivator, show such a respectful att.i.tude to someone.
This had completely changed his worldview.
It was as if he was dreaming.
Not long after, Li Li heard the sound of footsteps coming from the courtyard. The wooden door opened slightly.
A handsome young face entered his sight.
“So, it’s Mr. Xinghe.”
Liu Changgong was a little surprised to see Lord Xinghe. He looked behind him and did not see w.a.n.g Yuyan. Instead, he saw a young man with an injured face.
It was very unfamiliar.
His face was abominable.
Liu Changgong was very surprised.
‘This… could it be that he brought a Junior to ask me to teach him the art of the zither?’
Alright, since he had nothing to do…
He might even be able to take the opportunity to earn some spirit stones.
Liu Changgong thought of this and called out, “Come in.”
Sacred Lord Brahma smiled and said, “Sorry to disturb you, Senior.”
After saying this, Sacred Lord Brahma followed Liu Changgong into the small courtyard.
Li Li, who was behind Sacred Lord Brahma, followed closely and didn’t dare to speak.
After Liu Changgong brought Lord Xinghe and Li Li into the small courtyard, he casually asked, “Why is Mr. Xinghe so free to come over?”
Sacred Lord Brahma replied, “I don’t know if the things I prepared for Qi’er last time are enough, but I brought some here today. By the way, I apologize for leaking the matter of Senior’s clay figurine.”
After saying that, Sacred Lord Brahma took out some jade seals from his storage bracelet.
Although this time it was to confirm the matter of the fiendish demons, there had to be a reason for him to visit Senior Liu. Besides, it wouldn’t look good to visit him empty-handed.
Moreover, he had to apologize to Senior Liu for the clay figurine. The Brahma Sacred Lord had prepared those things before coming to the Grand Moon Sect, so it was a good time to use them.
“This, sir is too polite.”
Liu Changgong was surprised.
He didn’t expect that Lord Xinghe would come to deliver materials to Weiqi.
However, Liu Changgong was in need of these materials.
Xia’er’s body hadn’t recovered yet, so the more materials, the better.
He thought that Lord Xinghe must have been completely convinced by his musical skills last time to be so polite to a mortal like him.
However, he felt embarra.s.sed that he was always taking things from Lord Xinghe for free.
Liu Changgong hardened his heart and decided to take out a portion of middle-grade spirit stones to give to Lord Xinghe.
If he could use this opportunity to build a good relationship with Lord Xinghe and ask him to help introduce a few more calligraphy enthusiasts to buy his paintings in the future, wouldn’t he get as many spirit stones as he wanted?
He could use this opportunity to fish for a bigger fish.
He couldn’t bear to part with his child, so he couldn’t fish for a wolf!
After making his decision, Liu Changgong took out dozens of spirit stones and handed them over to Sacred Lord Brahma.
“I feel bad for taking Mr. Liu’s things for nothing. Please accept these things.”
Sacred Lord Brahma was stunned when he saw the storage bracelet Liu Changgong handed over.
Then, he stood up in shock and declined.
“Senior Liu, you’re killing this Junior. How would I dare to accept your things?”
Liu Changgong said, “Sir, take a look before you make any plans. The things inside are useful to you.”
Sacred Lord Brahma saw that Liu Changgong’s att.i.tude was firm, so he could only pick up the storage bracelet and examine it.
Since Senior Liu said it was useful, then the things inside were definitely not ordinary items.
With a sweep of his divine sense, Lord Xinghe saw more than fifty pieces of Immortal Jade lying flat in the storage s.p.a.ce.
Lord Xinghe was so shocked that his hand twitched.
‘It’s actually an ancient Immortal Jade!’
‘And he’s so generous, giving me more than fifty pieces in one go!’
Lord Xinghe didn’t think for long before he thought of the reason.
‘As expected of Senior Liu, spending so much money and seeing that I was about to break through to the Tribulation Transcension realm and ascend.’
The Tribulation Transcension realm could absorb the Immortal Qi in the Immortal Jade to strengthen his body and increase the probability of transcending the Lightning Tribulation.
At this moment, what Lord Xinghe needed the most was the Immortal Jade.
Although he was the Sacred Lord of the Holy Land, the ancient Immortal Jade was something that could only be obtained from the cave dwellings of the ancient people. It was something that he could only come across by chance and not seek.
Senior Liu was really thoughtful to bestow the Immortal Jade.
Thinking of this, Lord Xinghe was very touched. He cupped his hands and took a deep breath.
“Thank you for the gift, Senior.”
Liu Changgong felt a slight pain in his heart. That was more than fifty middle-grade spirit stones.
The materials that the other party had given him were probably not worth that much.
But he still pretended to be very calm.
“There’s no need to be so formal. It’s just a return of courtesy.”
As expected, Lord Xinghe was extremely shocked when he saw the huge sum of money he had given.
‘If people respect me, I’ll return the favor.’
As a mortal, Liu Changgong thought that he needed to pay attention to some etiquette in order to be worthy of the t.i.tle of a high and refined scholar.
“I guess you are lacking this item. I also don’t need this item, so I’ll give it to you.”
How could a cultivator not lack spirit stones? Liu changgong was ‘giving it to his liking’.
Lord Xinghe thought to himself, ‘Senior indeed saw that I was about to ascend during the Tribulation Transcension stage, and now I just happen to be lacking ancient Immortal Jade.’
‘Moreover, Senior Liu’s cultivation was so profound that he didn’t even need the ancient Immortal Jade anymore?’
‘As expected of a peerless expert, his realm was indeed different.’
‘Perhaps, at Senior Liu’s level, he can only advance by comprehending the Great Dao between Heaven and Earth.’
‘No wonder he disguised himself as a mortal and spent all his time writing and painting, indulging himself in mountains and rivers.’
Lord Xinghe didn’t think he had the leisure to do so.
When he thought of this, Lord Xinghe’s expression became even more respectful.
“No matter what, I still have to thank Mr. Xinghe. You really went to a lot of trouble to specially prepare these materials.”
Although the materials were for Xia’er, Liu Changgong didn’t want others to know of Xia’er’s existence at the moment.
It was better to know some things on one’s own.
