Chapter 22: The Bigshot World Is Indeed Full of Exams
“That's all I'm gonna say. Even if you believe it or not, that is all I can help you with, ” Bai Wuchen said calmly. He knew that the expert was strong and knew everything. If he didn't like others talking about him behind his back, then it would be over for him! Therefore, he was afraid to continue speaking.
Zhao Laotou looked at Bai Wuchen suspiciously. "Are you sure you're telling the truth?"
"That's right!" Bai Wuchen nodded.
“Tszzz..”.
Zhao Laotou's face remained calm, but she took a cold breath. If Bai Wuchen were to tell the truth, this expert was simply too terrifying! Could he be an Immortal from above?
He suddenly realized that this was an opportunity for him. “I'll go with you tomorrow. But if I knew You were lying to Me, I wouldn't let You go! Zhao Laotou said.
The next day, when the sky was still foggy, Bai Wuchen took Zhao Laotou and started walking to the Fallen Immortal City. Bai Wuchen did not want to bother Li Nianfan. To show their sincerity, they arrived at the gates of the Falling Immortal City early, anticipating the arrival of Li Nianfan.
However, when they arrived, Lin Qingyun had waited long before them. They exchanged smiles because they were not surprised.
Meanwhile, Li Nianfan was still enjoying his breakfast slowly. After resting for a while, he walked down the mountain.
When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he was stopped by a figure. That was the scholar from yesterday. His eyes were no longer lost and confused. Instead, they sparkled with a hint of excitement. He bowed sincerely to Li Nianfan and said, “Master. Li, I understand now! Thank you for your teaching yesterday!”
"You got it?" Li Nianfan looked at Meng Junliang, feeling that something was amiss.
Meng Junliang said, “What Mr. Li is trying to say is that everything in this world follows a set of rules. One must begin to be aware of the rules of everyday life in order to learn the rules of all the living and the dead. For example, the ordinary human cycle consists of birth to death, and one must fully understand this cycle in order to break this rule!”
So, he was still pursuing longevity.
Li Nianfan was tired of explaining further. He was very close to scolding the scholar yesterday by saying 'Death is normal, you have to face reality, stop dreaming!'.
Instead, he asked desperately, "Are you sure this is what I mean?"
“Of course, Mr Li's wisdom is not that simple! I just noticed it!" Meng Junliang said sincerely. "However, I will observe everything in the world carefully from now on and feel its natural rules in hopes of realizing the meaning of your wise words!"
Li Nianfan swallowed back the words he was about to say. Since this scholar idolized him, he could not ban him.
He sighed. "I hope you'll understand one day."
“I won't give up, Mr. Li. Thank you for your teaching. I cannot repay You, therefore, I will be your humble disciple from now on! Meng Junliang bowed to Li Nianfan.
"Stop! I'm not your teacher!" Li Nianfan stopped him. This kid has a problem with his mind. In his past realm, they would call him crazy! It would be a joke to have him as his student!
A hint of despair appeared on Meng Junliang's face. As expected, this expert did not think too much about it. Perhaps his understanding was still too shallow. He has to work harder.
Li Nianfan did not want to spend more time with these scholars, so he continued walking towards the Fallen Immortal City. However, Meng Junliang followed behind him very obediently and politely.
Meng Junliang replied politely, “Master. Li, after listening to your story yesterday, I learned a lot. It was a masterpiece! Please, allow me to write it down as a note. That will be the most important principle of life, benefiting future generations.”
Huh huh? It's just a story. How does that have anything to do with the most important principle of life?
Li Nianfan shook his head, thinking that this scholar was hopeless. However, it is not a bad idea to ask someone to write the story. At least his efforts will not be in vain. He waved his hand and gestured, "Alright, write it down if you want."
"Thank you, Mr. Li!" Meng Junliang bowed in excitement and excitement.
After seeing Li Nianfan walking into the Fallen Immortal City, Bai Wuchen and Lin Qingyun walked forward hurriedly and greeted, "Greetings to Mr. Li."
"Good morning, Mr. Li."
“Kakak Nianfan has finally arrived. I want to hear the story!”
“Yes! It's story time again!”
Welcomed by the large crowd at the entrance, Li was shocked. He then smiled politely. "Good morning everyone."
Zhao Laotou saw that Li Nianfan was a young man, and not to mention, a very ordinary man. He felt a little disappointed. However, since he was warned by Bai Wuchen, he did not show his disappointment and waited patiently.
Chong Er, who was behind Zhao Laotou, frowned and said in a low voice, “Master, this young man looks younger than me and has no cultivation at all. He is most likely an ordinary scholar.”
“Bai Wuchen won't wait for anything. Can't you see that Lin Qingyun of the Linyun Eternal Court is also here?” Zhao Laotou said in a low voice. “More observing and less talking.”
Chong Er lowered his head and nodded. He caught a glimpse of Lin Qinyun and his eyes shone with admiration and shock. He would never have thought that he would be able to meet the Saints of the Linyun Immortal Court here today, and at such a close distance! Unfortunately, he did not dare to talk to her.
Meanwhile, Lin Qingyun walked towards Li Nianfan and said in a pleasant tone, "Master. Li, there are too many people here walking back and forth. I'm afraid it'll distract you from telling the story, so I've hired a restaurant so you can talk comfortably. ”
Li Nianfan looked at Lin Qingyun in surprise. He never thought that he would be so considerate. She smiles. “Thank you for being so considerate.”
Bai Wuchen smacked her thigh, hoping that she could directly slap herself. How could he miss such a simple opportunity to please the expert?
Argha! A costly mistake!
Restaurants are nearby. It was clean and tidy, plus the atmosphere was nice. Lin Qingyun was really trying to please him.
Li Nianfan held Nanan and arrived upstairs. He smiled, “Continuing from where we stopped, Master Bodhi Zhu left angrily. At night, Wukong pretends to sleep, keeping her breathing steady. At midnight, he woke up without a sound, put on his clothes, opened the door quietly, and left.”.
Everyone listened attentively. When they realize that the three Bodhi whips imply that Wukong should go to him at three in the morning, the spectators have a view of realization in their eyes. Ordinary audiences don't have much to do with it, they just find it interesting.
However, the cultivators took it differently. Bai Wuchen felt like she had been struck by lightning. He did not expect that this was Bodhi testing Wukong. With that, he knew that from now onwards, he had to be more careful. He needs to try his best to understand all the things that the expert has implied in an attempt to please him.
