Chapter 117: Let’s Party, Bros!

At the four-part architecture.

Li Nianfan and Daji were packing.

This was their first road trip in five years. They were excited.

Li Nianfan said, “Daji, pack more clothes to wear. Let’s avoid washing clothes on the trip as it’ll be inconvenient. I’ll bring some fruits from the backyard. What do you like to eat?”

Daji packed while tucking her hair back. “Whatever you like.”

Li Nianfan shook his head and smiled awkwardly. “Come on, have some opinion of your own. I’ll pack some seasonal pears and mandarins.”

He had the System Space anyway, so it was not inconvenient to pack more things.

Li Nianfan waved at Blackie. “Let’s go, Blackie. Off to get some fruits.”

Bark!

Blackie immediately got up and ran to the backyard excitedly.

Li Nianfan laughed and complained, “You’re usually lazy but when it comes to eating, you’re so energetic. Why am I looking after you?”

Xiao Bai walked over, too. “Master, anything I can help you with?”

“Go and help Daji pack. Don’t forget anything useful,” said Li Nianfan. He walked to his backyard.

The backyard was mostly filled with trees aside from the swamp and the field. There were all sorts of trees surrounding the entire backyard, and they were all huge and full of leaves.

The most appealing part of the backyard was the fruit trees that were full of fruits.

Blackie loved strolling around the backyard and relaxing under the trees. Gazing at the fruit trees was its favorite hobby.

Blackie would drool all over it. Li Nianfan forbade Blackie from eating the fruits. Otherwise, the fruits would all be gone.

It was a tree-filled wonderland where the flowers bloomed and the birds sang.

The Immortal Realm was full of spiritual energy. The fruit trees were well-grown, especially with the help of Li Nianfan. The fruit trees were all tall and sturdy. It was different from the fruit trees in the past realm as these fruit trees had fruits and flowers at the same time. It was insanely beautiful.

The whole backyard was filled with colorful flowers blooming on the apple trees, peach trees, pear trees, and more. You could smell the fruity aroma with every passing breeze.

The fruits looked alive under the sunlight, shiny and glossy. It was wonderful. Everything looked like a painting.

Li Nianfan gazed at his backyard, feeling like he had just stepped into a painting. He took a deep breath. “Nice!”

He had a sense of achievement. All credit went to him for this beautiful backyard.

“Blackie, go pick some pears!”

Blackie leaped onto a tree as soon as Li Nianfan ordered him to, hopping around energetically.

Li Nianfan placed a basket under the tree and waited for Blackie to drop the pears.

He glanced around casually and saw Lao Gui laying in the swamp.

He immediately waved and said, “Lao Gui, get over here!”

Lao Gui lazily opened its eyes and looked at Li Nianfan. Lao Gui was stunned for a while, then it moved towards Li Nianfan slowly.

Boom!

It was huge. Every move it made was loud.

“Alright, stop,” smiled Li Nianfan. He stepped on its shell and climbed to the highest point so he could reach the mandarins on the tree.

Lao Gui was huge so it was like a walking ladder. How convenient!

“Move forward. Yeah. Stop.” Li Nianfan was having a good time. He even enjoyed the view.

Li Nianfan did not know how long the road trip would be, so he picked two whole baskets of pears and mandarins. He could probably buy fruits on the road, too, but they would not be as good as his.

Bark!

Blackie barked at Li Nianfan and stuck its tongue out while wagging its tail.

Lao Gui also looked at Li Nianfan.

“Fine, here you go,” said Li Nianfan, exasperated. He tossed them some pears.

Blackie hopped and chomped down on the pear.

Lao Gui reached its neck out and opened its mouth.

Crunch!

The pears were juicy. The tortoise and the dog looked satisfied.

“Oh, yeah. I’ll need some condiments, too. We might need to cook.”

Li Nianfan picked some vegetables from his field and left his backyard. He stopped and stared at the rockery. “Oh, yeah. I need to bring some jello, too. For snacks.”

…

Three days went by.

The Holy Emperor, Luo Shiyu, Qin Manyun, and the Second Elder arrived early at the four-part architecture. They were waiting respectfully.

The Second Elder was flushed and energetic. He was so excited it was as if he had won the jackpot.

“Lucky, so lucky! The Sect Master is in a retreat, the Big Elder needs to stay and guard the Linxian Palace. I just so happen to be better than the Third Elder and Fourth Elder, so I get the chance to tag along. Haha, just the thought of it makes me laugh. This is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”

It was a blessing to get to tag along with the expert. He needed to do his best and impress the expert!

Creak!

Suddenly, the door opened. Li Nianfan and Daji walked out.

Li Nianfan smiled at everyone. “Morning, everybody. You all know that you don’t have to come here and wait for us, right? How courteous.”

Qin Manyun and the others saluted. “Morning, Mr. Li.”

Qin Manyun introduced, “This is my elder, his name is Zhou Dacheng. He’s going to power and guide the skyship.”

So, he was the driver.

Li Nianfan smiled and greeted, “Greetings to Brother Zhou.”

He turned around and said to Blackie, “Blackie, this is a road trip so we’re not taking you with us. Go back inside.”

Whine…

Blackie rubbed its head on his trousers and gave Li Nianfan the puppy dog eyes.

Li Nianfan patted its head and laughed. “Alright, go on now. You can’t follow us, you single dog. Be nice and guard the house properly.”

Then, they walked away leaving Blackie looking pitiful.

Once Li Nianfan was out of sight, Blackie snapped out of it. It went from looking sad to being energetic. It was so excited that it almost laughed out loud.

Blackie headed back into the four-part architecture.

In the four-part architecture, the Dragon Fire Peal was rolling and spitting fire. The Sword Buddhist came out from the Fallen Demon Sword and started rapping incantations. The Thousand-Year Black Ice and Ice-Crystal were battling. It was such an ice-cold battle that the river started to freeze over. The Preaching Pearl played videos non-stop while the Tianxin Bells were chiming like crazy.

Laughter could be heard in the backyard as the trees twisted and moved without restraint.

A golden figure could be seen swimming and circling in the pond. Lao Gui laid at the side of the swamp with its eyes shut, smiling peacefully.

Blackie shook its booty and yelled, “Bros, the Master’s gone. Let’s party!”
