I’m Really Not A Supreme Master!
Chapter 463: Holy Medicine? Not Even Good Enough to Feed ChickensIn the small courtyard.
Li Fan had already finished washing up.
Last night, he had made a large pot of tiger bone soup.
Gong Ya was about to head to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, when Li Fan said,
“Just boil two eggs for Xiao Bai, and I’ll change things up today by making noodles for you all.”
Tiger bone soup with noodles actually tasted quite good.
“Yes, Master.”
Gong Ya responded.
Li Fan immediately went to the kitchen to cook the noodles himself.
Before long, steaming bowls of tiger bone broth noodles were ready for each person.“Wow… it smells delicious!”
Zi Ling couldn’t help but eat with great relish.
“The noodles Master made are so tasty!”
Nan Feng and Su Baiqian, too, threw aside their demure demeanors, indulging in the delicious flavors.
A group of male disciples wolfed down their food even more eagerly.
Li Fan ate casually and then went to take care of Xiao Bai’s breakfast; the cat would only eat eggs and refused to touch the meat from last night, not even the soup.
Li Fan gently petted it.
After eating the eggs, Bai Xiaoqing turned her head and meowed with what seemed like a touch of grievance in her cat eyes.
“Okay, okay, I know you don’t like the taste of this meat, so we won’t eat it anymore, okay?”
Li Fan gently rubbed her belly.
Bai Xiaoqing let out a cry and then sank into the bliss of Li Fan’s caresses.
Li Fan smiled; this little white cat was really quite spirited.
After everyone had finished eating, Li Fan stood up and said,
“Today I’ll teach you a new set of gymnastics!”
The disciples had already grasped The Call of the Era exercises fairly well, and conveniently, Li Fan had recently mastered them too.
Indeed, it was time to teach them.
Upon hearing this, the disciples were overjoyed!
“We can follow Master in exercises again, that’s great!”
Zi Ling was over the moon with happiness.
“This set of gymnastics should be different from the last one, I’m looking forward to it!”
Nan Feng and Su Baiqian also had eager anticipation in their eyes.
The group of male disciples was instantly ready and lined up.
Li Fan then said,
“Our beat is the same, follow me. First section, stretching exercises… one two three four, five six seven eight, two two three four, five six seven eight…”
Li Fan called out the beats while starting the movements.
The disciples followed along, learning with him.
“Indeed, this is another profound way of gymnastics, different from the Seven-Colored Sunshine… but equally profound!”
“I feel… like the potential within me is being further activated!”
“The gymnastic exercises Master teaches us can continually forge and develop our bodies!”
The disciples were all very serious.
Having the experience of learning the Seven-Colored Sunshine, they progressed much more rapidly this time and didn’t struggle as before.
“Good, Zi Ling has finally raised her leg higher, and Nan Feng, bend your waist a bit lower…”
“Gong Ya is doing very well!”
“Da De, don’t just focus on exercising the buttocks…”
Li Fan continued the gymnastics while guiding them.
Soon, they had finished.
Ziling Nanfeng and others were drenched in sweat.
Although they had already achieved Saintly Path Completion, these gymnastics still felt demanding.
Long Zixuan and the others were also sweaty, but they had gained a lot.
And at this moment.
Mu Rantian and his group finally arrived just outside the courtyard.
Wu’er Xianting!
“This courtyard… is not to be peered at lightly!”
Mu Rantian was startled.
Just one glance was all it took for him to feel like those four characters… were like a divine presence!
Too sacred to look upon directly.
On the other hand, Mu Wanqing, though she faced the small courtyard as if facing an ocean, which fully made her realize her own insignificance, did not feel as intense a fear.
Mu Wanqing took a deep breath and stepped forward, saying,
“May I ask if Senior Li is at home?”
She knocked on the door.
Inside the courtyard.
Li Fan had just finished his gymnastics and was drinking the tea handed to him by Gong Ya when he heard the noise outside the courtyard, and immediately said,
“Yes, please come in.”
Mu Wanqing and the other two pushed the door open and entered!
Upon entering the small courtyard, all three of them stiffened!
The aura here… was too extraordinary!
“Not right… This, this peach tree, is the true Sacrificial Spirit, isn’t it?!”
Mu Rantian was shocked when he saw the peach tree!
“How do I feel… that chicken over there…”
Mu Nanshan’s scalp tingled, and he didn’t dare to look any longer.
This kind of might was like facing a supreme existence.
It made their legs go weak.
Mu Wanqing was also extremely startled; she observed the soil of the small courtyard!
This soil…
Its quality was beyond imagination!
Even better than that of the small mountain village!
Heavens… what kind of sanctuary was this…?
To use such rare treasured soil for a courtyard?
She looked doubtfully at every brick and tile here, every blade of grass and tree…
She had no doubt that anything from this small courtyard, if taken outside, would likely cause a bloodbath over its possession!
She took a deep breath and looked towards Li Fan, saying,
“Greetings to Senior Li!”
Mu Rantian and Mu Nanshan also looked towards Li Fan with surprise, was this the person who had bestowed the Spiritual Soil, the supreme figure?
The owner of this small mountain village…?
He seemed ordinary, but he must be an existence beyond their imagination.
They hurriedly paid their respects as well!
Li Fan, however, smiled and said,
“We are all neighbors here, there’s no need for such formalities, please rise!”
Immediately, the three of them stood up.
“How is it, have the grapes in your village been revived?”
Li Fan asked.
Mu Wanqing gratefully replied, “Senior, they have been revived! And their vitality… far surpasses what it was before!”
“Thank you, Senior!”
Mu Rantian stepped forward, bowing respectfully, and said,
“Reporting to Senior, I am Mu Rantian, the village leader of Wood Spirit Village, and beside me is Mu Nanshan, the most outstanding youth of our village!”
“Wanqing has been favored by Senior, saving our entire Wood Spirit Village, so we have specially come to express our gratitude to Senior!”
As he spoke, he hesitated for a moment but eventually took out several brocade boxes, saying,
“This is a token of our… small token of appreciation.”
He bowed his head, ashamed, and said, “Wood Spirit Village is remote and weak, these… are the finest things our village has to offer, please don’t be offended, Senior!”
He was truly nervous.
After all, even if they had given their all…
To someone like Senior Li, it probably wasn’t even worth as much as a roadside weed.
If Senior Li felt that Wood Spirit Village was being disrespectful, then… it would be over for them!
With that, he opened the brocade boxes.
Li Fan was also somewhat surprised as he looked inside to find that they actually contained some farm products!
A pumpkin.
A small bag of rice grains.
Two corn cobs.
And two small bottles of wine!
The gifts were all here, but at this moment, Mu Rantian and the other two were blushing with shame!
These were already the most precious things in Wood Spirit Village.
Primordial Holy Gourd, Peeping Divine Rice Grain, Profound Holy Corn… all were treasures of Holy Medicine!
But, such Holy Medicines might have some value elsewhere, but in this little mountain village… they could probably only serve to feed chickens and pigs!
After all, a place like this simply wasn’t lacking in Divine Medicine!
Li Fan was also startled when he saw these agricultural products.
At a glance, these products… didn’t seem to amount to much.
The pumpkins were truly crooked and cracked…
The corn cobs shriveled beyond recognition, and the rice grains looked like aged old rice…
As for those two jars of wine, judging by Li Fan’s expertise in brewing, they were surely subpar…
But these were the best things in Wood Spirit Village?
Li Fan immediately understood that Wood Spirit Village… was indeed suffering!
Their farming techniques must be substandard!
If the crops they grew were all so weak…
The villagers must be having a hard time!
Li Fan felt a pang of sympathy in his heart, knowing that if rural folk couldn’t grow good crops, life could get very tough for them.
He immediately said,
“Thank you!”
“I quite like these gifts,” Li Fan said.
He waved his hand, and Gong Ya and Wu Dade promptly stepped forward to receive the gifts.
Upon hearing this, Mu Rantian and the others were overjoyed!
Such a senior… liked their gifts!
“I knew it, I knew it! A senior like this cares not about the gift itself, but our attitude!” Mu Rantian was very relieved!
His choice had been the right one!
After Li Fan accepted the gifts, he then said,
“Living humbly in a mountain village, I have nothing else to offer, but I do provide for myself with some farming. Nan Feng, go fetch some millet.”
Nan Feng immediately got up, and in no time, he brought back a bag of millet!
Li Fan’s millet was plump and lustrous as pearls.
He said,
“Consider this as a return gift.”
Saying this, he handed the millet to Mu Wanqing.
Mu Wanqing, however, was instantly stunned.
She trembled.
Looking at that bag of millet…
She was lost in thought and shocked.
Because every grain of that millet was emitting a supreme glow.
The spiritual energy was extraordinarily rich, and vaguely, it seemed as if many phantasmal Auspicious Beasts were dancing within it.
Heavens, was this Divine Medicine?
She couldn’t believe it!
And moreover, such precious spiritual plants… were they actually giving them away to people like themselves?
This must be a dream…
Mu Rantian and Mu Nanshan were both completely dumbfounded.
With a start, Mu Rantian quickly said,
“Senior, we, we cannot accept this!”
It was too precious!
Even a single grain, if it appeared in the Great Wilderness, would cause a scramble.
A bag… if the outside world found out, it was likely that Wood Spirit Village would be leveled overnight!
Treasure, sometimes, could be a catastrophe.
Especially a treasure like this.
Wood Spirit Village… dared not accept it!
Li Fan inwardly sighed, thinking these simple farmers truly hadn’t seen much of the world!
The level of farming technology in this world seemed to be terribly backward!
“It’s alright, take it. This isn’t anything rare,” Li Fan said, then smiled and added, “It’s proper to return a courtesy. You don’t want me, Li Fan, to be seen as someone who lacks manners, do you?”
At these words, Mu Rantian and the others were taken aback.
They pondered the meaning behind Senior Li’s words!
“It’s proper to return a courtesy… Could it be that this bag of divine millet, involves some kind of karma?” Mu Nanshan murmured.
“Senior Li bestowed such a great gift… we must accept it… To not accept it would be disrespectful to him!” Mu Rantian came to his senses, sweating profusely, and then he bowed, saying,
“Senior, we are slow-witted, please forgive us!”
“We’ll accept this millet!”
Mu Wanqing then shakily took the millet that Li Fan handed over.
“Thank you, Senior!”
They expressed their gratitude!
Li Fan then smiled and nodded, saying,
“Da De, please see our guests out.”
Wu Dade said,
“Right away, Master.”
Mu Rantian and the others promptly got up to say goodbye, with utmost respect.
After they left.
“Master, these items…”
Gong Ya spoke up, holding the corn cobs in her hands, unsure of what to do.
They couldn’t be cooked into a meal.
“Hmm…”
Li Fan said, “Feed the chickens?”
But at his words, the flock of chickens nearby immediately began to cluck loudly, as if they were protesting!
Li Fan: “…”
“Never mind, just take it to Uncle Zhang. I remember that Big Black Bull has quite the appetite. People came all this way to bring these, it wouldn’t be nice to waste them.”
Gong Ya immediately responded,
“As you command!”
…
Wu Dade and Mu Rantian and the others walked out of the small mountain village.
“Young Master Wu, Senior Li has shown us such great kindness; we truly do not know how to repay him!” Mu Rantian spoke uneasily.
The favor was too great!
So great that their Wood Spirit Village… might truly never be able to repay it!
Wu Dade, however, grinned and said,
“Old man, don’t overthink it.”
“This millet really isn’t of much use, it would just end up feeding chickens if left uneaten…”
At these words, Mu Rantian and the others fell deep into silence.
This divine millet…
For feeding chickens?
So, the corn and other things they had brought, didn’t they even qualify to feed chickens???
The three of them felt their self-esteem crumbling a bit!
And at this time, they had finally walked out of the small mountain village.
Just stored.
All of a sudden, ahead of them and not far away.
A chill wind blew towards them!
Their complexions changed, and as they looked up, they saw an enormous locust tree ahead that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere!
The locust tree was festooned with the corpses of infants.
The locust tree, like an old man, was slowly advancing towards the small mountain village, carrying with it an aura of death!
