I Might Be A Fake Cultivator Chapter 755 - Abandoning the Old in Preference for the New

The next day, Xuanyuan Cheng arrived from the Ten-Thousand Spirits Immortal Sect.

He was ecstatic upon seeing the lush gra.s.slands that the Realm of the Fallen Phoenix had become. This place was extremely suitable for his cultivation in the dao of the Myriad Spirit Taichi! He was even more amazed upon seeing the intricately constructed Four Nine Immortal Sect. “An Lin, it has only been a few days, but you’ve already found a location AND constructed the entire sect? How did you do it?!”

“This is a long story. Let me give you the short version,” An Lin replied with a smile.

Xuanyuan Cheng turned to him with a curious expression.

“This is all fate!” An Lin explained.

A short silence ensued.

Xuanyuan Cheng: “That’s it?”

An Lin: “That’s it.”

Xuanyuan Cheng: “…”

This story was far too abbreviated!

An Lin chuckled upon seeing Xuanyuan Cheng’s sulky expression before launching into a tale about the adventures he had gone through during the holiday period thus far. This was an undulating tale full of twists and turns.

Xuanyuan Cheng couldn’t help but sigh with emotion after hearing An Lin’s story. “An Lin, you are a man who encounters opportunities everywhere you go. You’re always getting embroiled in earth-shattering events!”

“Would you believe me if I told you I just want a peaceful cultivating life?” An Lin asked with a melancholy expression.

Xuanyuan Cheng: “…”

An Lin heaved a forlorn sigh. “I knew you wouldn’t believe me.”

Xuanyuan Cheng shook his head. “No, but I’m trying my best to believe you!”

An Lin: “…”

The two of them chatted with one another as they made their way toward the Bright Moon Lake.

Bai Ling, Liu Qianhuan, and Xiao Ze had already begun to set up the spell formation in accordance with the formation drawings that came with the Ninety-Nine-Fold Extreme Heavenly Formation Disk.

Xuanyuan Cheng was also quite adept in the dao of spell formations, so he too partic.i.p.ated in setting up the spell formation.

Su Qianyun made a trip back to the Green Wood Imperial Family to use the influence of the imperial family in order to spread the news of the Four Nine Immortal Sect’s grand opening in three days.

Thus, An Lin and Da Bai had nothing to do again.

The two of them sat on the sh.o.r.e of the Bright Moon Lake and stared blankly into the distance.

An Lin felt like he was the most carefree sect leader in this world.

He had already informed Xiao Hong, Bryce, Tang Ximen, and the others about the grand opening of their sect, and they had all promised to arrive before that date.

“Sigh, I wonder when Celestial Maiden Xiaolan is going to get here.” An Lin stared blankly up at the clear blue sky, where a few white clouds drifted lazily.

“Sigh, I wonder when I’ll be able to attain my domain, woof!” Da Bai had reached a bottleneck in his cultivation and was feeling quite depressed.

An Lin detected Da Bai’s distress, and he caressed his soft, white fur with a gentle smile on his face. “Don’t think too far ahead. Everything will come with time. I’ll still love you regardless of what your cultivation base is! I won’t abandon you no matter how incompetent you are!”

“Big Brother An, please don’t call me incompetent. Woof!” Da Bai rolled his eyes with displeasure, but he was quite touched and elated internally.

Right at this moment, a streak of golden flames broke through the clouds in the sky and approached them from afar.

An Lin looked up to discover a familiar figure whom he had dearly missed.

A pleasant voice called out, “An Lin!”

A woman in a Jade Barley Ink Garment descended from the sky.

She had eyes that rippled like water, features that should only belong in the most perfect artistic creations, and a smile that would make countless men swoon… That’s right, Xiaolan was here!

She landed beside An Lin with a slight smile. “Did you miss me?”

An Lin replied in the form of a tight hug.

He held on tightly to her warm, soft body and inhaled the scent that was unique to her. Strands of her hair were picked up by the wind, and they caressed his cheek like the gentle touch of a lover… This was such a good feeling!

Da Bai stared blankly at the lovers who were embracing each other, and his heart suddenly felt very cold.

What was this about not abandoning him?

He had clearly just abandoned him to go to his newfound love!

He was the first one that had been ridden by An Lin, but now he was being abandoned…

Perhaps it was because An Lin held on for a bit too long, but in any case, Xu Xiaolan lightly pushed him away with a light blush on her face. “That’s enough. We haven’t even been apart for that long, why are you so excited?”

“It has only been a few days, but I’ve encountered more life and death situations than I can count. I almost thought that I would never be able to see you again!” An Lin sighed emotionally.

“Really?” Xu Xiaolan extended a slim hand and pinched An Lin’s cheek as she released her divine sense to detect An Lin’s condition before heaving a sigh of relief. “What happened?”

“It’s a very long story,” An Lin replied in a mysterious voice.

“That’s alright, you can give me the short version,” Xu Xiaolan urged.

“No, I’m going to take my time and tell you the whole story.” An Lin grabbed onto Xu Xiaolan’s hand, which was still lingering on his face, and he led her toward the Bright Moon Lake with a gentle smile. “I have to tell you all about my heroic deeds!”

Xu Xiaolan rolled her eyes at An Lin. “Hmph! I knew you would say that!”

The two of them strolled along the sh.o.r.e of the lake.

A white figure was left standing in the cold wind, which seemed to be blowing directly into his heart.

Da Bai suddenly came to his senses before bringing out a golden ball of food from his storage ring to chomp on.

A soothing energy began to flow through his entire body, alleviating his negative emotions.

“Phew, who would have thought that this Purple Star dog food inheritance would become my most useful inheritance! Woof…” Da Bai lamented with a disconsolate expression.

Meanwhile, An Lin strolled with Xu Xiaolan’s hand in his as he told her about all of his heroic feats.

He felt like this was even more satisfying than flexing during battle. Xiaolan was also a very good listener and would occasionally provide some constructive criticism for him to reflect on. For example, when An Lin fled into the cave, he could’ve used his Divine Liquid Creation Technique to create a clone that could divert the enemy by drawing them toward another direction.

The two of them walked and chatted for a long time.

In the end, An Lin brought out his phoenix egg.

An Lin showed it off with a proud smile. “Look, this is Little Huang!”

Xu Xiaolan caressed the s.h.i.+ny golden egg with a dainty smile. “Little Huang? It hasn’t even been born yet, how do you know it’s a female phoenix? What if it’s a Little Feng?¹”

An Lin immediately shook his head with a smug expression. “Haha, that’s where you’re wrong! It’s not huang as in phoenix, but huang as in yellow! That way, it would be a suitable name regardless of its gender! How about that? Aren’t I a genius?!”

Xu Xiaolan was shocked. “Are you sure you’re not mistaking this phoenix for a pet dog?!”

What a familiar sentiment…

An Lin felt as if he had received another sword strike to the heart.

“I already have Da Bai, and one dog is enough. Yellow is a really awesome color as well! Why do you all think color sounds like a dog?”

“It looks like everyone’s cognitive functions are normal.”

“… Is this name really that bad?”

“I feel like if you stick to this name, the little phoenix will leave you once it’s born.”

An Lin: “…”

Time pa.s.sed by slowly.

Another day pa.s.sed by.

Little Lang, Bryce, Tang Ximen, Xiao Chou, Xiao Hong, Little Tian, Yao Mingxi, Yao Xiu, Xin Zhu, Zhao Huaiyin, Liu Dabao, Hu Guan, Sun Shenglian, Luo Ziping, Miao Tian, and Zong Yongyan all arrived at the newly established sect.

The grand opening of the sect was finally underway!
