I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

The purpose of this ball was actually just for An Lin’s trio to familiarize themselves with all the important characters of the southwest region, thereby making things more convenient for them.

The specifics of the mission assigned to An Lin’s trio could not be revealed, and only a very small number of people, including Mayor Qin, Zheng Hongyi and Director Zhou had a rough idea of what the mission entailed. Hence, the rest of the guests could only make some general small talk.

Soon, they began to feel a little bored and found a table to sit at.

Zheng Hongyi and Huang Shanshan would take care of all these complicated interactions for them.

Upon taking a seat, Xu Xiaolan and Xuanyuan Cheng immediately engrossed themselves with their phones.

The allure of smartphones was not only apparent to mortals, but the myriad of functions in these phones also ensured that not even cultivators are immune to their charms.

Xu Xiaolan browsed for items on Jingdong and Taobao, beaming with excitement.

The desire for shopping that was common in all young girls burned in her like a roaring flame.

Whereas Xuanyuan Cheng was using his phone to research all types of cutting-edge electronic products, advanced mechanical products, and even the military weapons of each country.

Regardless of whether it was theoretical knowledge or the construction of models, all these aspects were within the scope of his research, giving him an air akin to that of an astute engineering student.

An Lin sighed lightly upon seeing this.

Other people attended balls to socialize and dance.

Meanwhile, these guys were glued to their phones…

Not long ago, they were this super badass trio that shocked the whole crowd!

But now, they had suddenly retreated to the sidelines, completely shattering their badass image.

Browsing Taobao and viewing blueprints… was this really normal?

An Lin let out another sigh before pulling his own phone out of his pocket to play King of Glory…

…

He chose Zhuge Liang as his game character. In comparison to a heroic character like Li Bai, with his graceful demeanor and chick-magnet skills, An Lin was more of a fan of handsome and flexible characters who were able to advance or retreat as the situation demands, such as Zhuge Liang.

Some of the daughters of prominent family clan leaders in attendance at the ball had already begun casting fleeting glances toward An Lin. His flamboyant actions earlier had captivated their heartstrings.

Some of the girls finally mustered up the courage to make their way toward him, intending to invite him to dance, only to find that he had sat down to play on his phone!

“What’s Young Master An playing?”

A girl with a pretty face asked her friend quietly.

“I can’t tell, he’s too far away.”

“I feel Young Master An is one of those unfathomable characters controlling everything behind the scenes, all his actions must hold some sort of profound meaning. I think it’s best if we did not distract him.” her friend said solemnly.

“That’s true, he does look quite busy.”

“Sigh, what a pity…”

The girl sighed, suppressing the urge to go and talk to An Lin.

At this moment, An Lin was engrossed in his game, completely oblivious to the concept of games ruining lives.

By now, his battle had reached its climax.

Both sides’ defensive forts had been vanquished, and the only thing left was each sides’ large crystal.

During the 5V5 group battle, both sides had suffered four casualties, with only An Lin’s Zhuge Liang and the enemy’s Han Xin remaining on the battlefield.

The outcome of their duel would decide the match.

Zhuge Liang and Han Xin were both at quarter health.

An Lin wanted to increase the distance between himself and Han Xin, buying him the eight seconds of time required to charge up his final attack, and defeating Han Xin in one fell swoop.

However, he had still underestimated Han Xin’s range of attack.

Han Xin leaped towards Zhuge Liang, closing the distance in an instant before unleashing a ferocious barrage of attacks with his spear.

Zhuge Liang had insufficient health points, thus immediately falling to Han Xin’s surprise attack.

“Idiot! You should’ve just teleported right in front of Han Xin and used the Attack of the East Wind to finish the match, why waste time charging the energy ball!?”

A crisp voice sounded beside An Lin’s ear just as his Zhuge Liang fell to the enemy’s Han Xin.

An Lin raised his head to find a very cute young girl with short chestnut-colored hair glaring down at his phone screen in disapproval.

He knew that what she said was of course correct.

However, for an adult like him to be scolded by a little girl like this was a little embarrassing. “Where have you come from? Shoo, go away kid!”

“Me? Kid!?” The little girl pointed at her own face, rage shimmering in her bright eyes, her breast rising and falling with each breath.

Oh wait, no, she doesn’t have any breasts!

An Lin knew that his previous words were not very polite, hence he attempted a different approach. “Where has this cute little loli come from? Go find your mummy and daddy!”

The little girl became even more enraged upon hearing An Lin’s words, raising her voice in anger. “Listen up, I’m eighteen! Already a legal age adult!”

An Lin stared at the little girl’s petite figure, blinking with a blank expression on his face.

A pink evening dress was draped over her figure, appearing quite loose despite the fact that it was a size ‘S’, revealing her translucent white shoulders.

The cleavage of this evening dress reached down quite far, but her chest still looked flat as a board despite this.

“Ok… I believe you.” An Lin nodded.

A pleased expression appeared on her face upon hearing An Lin’s admission, but his next words almost made her faint from rage!

“You’re a legal age loli, are you happy now?” An Lin corrected himself.

Happy? Happy my ass!

Would it kill him not to add on that sentence at the end?

She felt like if she were to continue with this line of conversation, she would cough up blood soon!

Hence, she immediately changed subjects. “Hi, my name is Tian Lingling, Miss Shanshan has instructed me to assist you in completing your mission.”

“Oh, hi, my name is An Lin.”

A flash of disappointment appeared fleetingly on An Lin’s face.

He had thought that Tian Lingling had been attracted by his dashing figure whilst gaming.

It was now apparent that his thoughts had erred on the narcissistic side.

An Lin turned Xu Xiaolan and Xuanyuan Cheng’s attention away from their phones before introducing Tian Lingling to them.

In the country Huang Shanshan was affiliated with, the National Special Operations Department belonged to the military, whereas Tian Lingling was the representative for the Hua Nation. Both of these forces would provide assistance to An Lin’s trio in order to complete their mission.

The guest that Huang Shanshan and Zheng Hongyi had earlier left to greet was none other than Tian Lingling.

Tian Lingling had already reached the Eighth Stage Dao Body at only eighteen years of age, and she was considered to be a prodigy even in the Kingdom of the Nine States.

On a planet like Earth, her talent was absolutely first-rate, hence there was no need for her to be polite or exercise restraint when talking to An Lin and his friends.

An Lin was of course not going to take offense to this.

Why would he take a little kid seriously?

“Hey! Hey! An Lin, dance with me!”

Tian Lingling’s bright eyes blinked with excitement and anticipation.

“With you?” An Lin sized up Tian Lingling, a barely detectable hint of disdain appearing on his face. “I refuse!”

Are you kidding? If he was to dance with a little loli girl as a partner, how strange would that be?

He would get mistaken for someone with pedophiliac tendencies!

An Lin’s flat out refusal caused Tian Lingling to stomp her foot in rage.

Her anger subsided only after a long while. “Hey! Hey! An Lin, do you have WeChat?”

“Of course I do, I’m not a caveman, how could I not have WeChat?”

Tian Lingling chuckled slightly before pulling out her phone and bringing up the QR code. Her intentions required no explanation.

An Lin thought to himself that adding her on WeChat should be ok, it’d allow for easier communication as well, hence he very cooperatively added Tian Lingling.

Doo… Doo… Doo…

A message came through on An Lin’s WeChat, it was a smiley face sent by Tian Lingling.

He raised his head to look at Tian Lingling before responding with a smiley face of his own.

An Lin was little speechless, she and Tian Lingling were standing face-to-face, so why were they exchanging emojis over the phone? Is this a new game in the mortal world?

Doo… Doo… Doo…

Another message came through on An Lin’s Wechat: “Tian Lingling invites you to join the group ‘all cultivators of the world unite together to protect earth’.”

An Lin’s eyes widened upon seeing the name of the group before looking toward Tian Lingling.

Tian Lingling smiled smugly at him. “This is the WeChat group for the Hua Nation’s top cultivators, and it will also be your support team for this mission.”

An Lin’s expression remained blank.

With such an outlandish group name… was this really a group established by cultivators!?

All cultivators of the world unite together to protect earth? Do they think they’re Ultraman!?

Even though An Lin was a little speechless, he still accepted the invitation into the group.

However, he discovered very quickly that he might’ve just joined a fake cultivator group…
