“It’s you guys,” Li Nianfan politely replied. “Brother Lin, Lady Qingyun.”

Lin Mufeng smiled and said, “We didn’t expect to run into you lake drifting here, Mr. Li. What a coincidence.”

Li Nianfan gestured them to the awning of the raft, “Please, let’s chat on the raft, Brother Lin. Daji, prepare some tea.”

“Sorry for the disturbance then.” Lin Mufeng and Lin Qingyun were secretly overjoyed that they could talk to the expert.

After a while of chatting.

Li Nianfan asked curiously, “Where are you going? I noticed there were a lot of cultivators flying by. Did something happen?”

Lin Mufeng said, “To be honest, Mr. Li, there are rumors of leftover Immortal Relics at the Clear Moon Lake. That’s why there are a lot of cultivators. We’re here to try our luck, too.”

“Immortal Relics?” Li Nianfan was instantly intrigued. “I wonder what it looks like.”

Novels in the past realm said that relics were the most mysterious things, treasures that could be passed down for generations. The Immortal Realm had relics, too. Was it an Immortal Item?

Maybe one of the treasures could make him successful overnight. Maybe it could change his body that did not have a Spiritual Root. Perhaps he could be a cultivator.

It would be a lie if Li Nianfan said he was not envious of the cultivators. It was a shame that it was impossible for him to be one.

He heard that if one’s body did not have a Spiritual Root, one could never become a cultivator unless one had a magnificent treasure to help. But of course, treasures like that came from daydreams.

Lin Mufeng was smart about it. He hurriedly said, “Mr. Li, if you’re interested, you can come check it out with us.”

Li Nianfan was interested, but then he shook his head and said, “Nevermind, relics must be hard to find, especially when I’m just an ordinary man. How can I join the crowd?”

Even if relics existed, it was not his place as an ordinary man to own it, right?

Lin Mufeng knew it was time to showcase his loyalty. He said, “Finding Immortal Relics is risky, but if Mr. Li wants to go, I can make way for you.”

Lin Qingyun quickly chimed in, “Yeah, Mr. Li. You reattached my father’s arm. We should help you out on this.”

The father and daughter were kind-hearted people. Li Nianfan felt like it was a good choice that he helped them.

Li Nianfan waved and said, “Brother Lin, that was only my small act of kindness. Thank you, though.”

He stopped and continued, “I thought something bad happened. I was about to leave. From the looks of it, I can stay the night at the lake.”

Lin Mufeng suddenly realized what he meant. He hurriedly said, “Mr. Li, are you worried that you’d be disturbed at night? My daughter and I are cultivators. We can guard you for the night.”

“This…” frowned Li Nianfan.

Lin Qingyun sincerely said, “Mr. Li, a night is nothing for cultivators like us. Please, don’t reject us.”

Li Nianfan thanked them, “If that’s the case, thank you for your kindness.”

Regardless of whether there were demons at the lake, Li Nianfan felt much safer with two cultivators guarding him for the night.

The sunset painted the Clear Moon Lake a bright orange color.

Nighttime came after a while.

The Clear Moon Lake was chilly at night.

Li Nianfan talked to Lin Mufeng and Lin Qingyun for a while, then he hung a lantern at the awning. He went inside the awning with Daji and fell asleep.

Lin Mufeng and Lin Qingyun looked serious on the raft. They were staring at the surface of the lake without blinking.

Suddenly, Lin Mufeng raised his hand and pointed at the lake.

Boom!

After a short while, the dead body of a huge Clam Demon floated to the water’s surface.

Lin Mufeng sneered, “Ha, just a Clam Demon. How dare it approach the expert when he’s resting. It deserves to die!”

He used his powers, creating waves on the water’s surface. Suddenly, the surrounding fishes swam away. No nearby creatures survived.

Lin Mufeng said in a serious tone, “Qingyun, this is an assignment from the expert. We can’t make any mistakes. Don’t only be aware of demons but also of anything that can make a sound. We can’t let them disturb the expert.”

Lin Qingyun nodded with seriousness.

Suddenly, a bird flew by. It was flapping its wings.

Lin Qingyun and Lin Mufeng targeted it at the same time. They attacked it and pierced the bird.

That bird did not even have the time to chirp before it fell straight into the lake.

However, when it was about to hit the surface of the lake, Lin Mufeng cast a spell. The wind carried the dead body of the bird, letting it fall peacefully into the lake without making a sound.

Lin Qingyun suddenly reminded him, “Dad, I think we can cast a Soundproof Spell for the expert.”

Lin Mufeng thought it was an amazing idea. He complimented her, “Nice idea, it’s foolproof!”

He instantly cast the spell on the awning.

Although they cast the spell, they still did not dare to relax. They stood up straight and scanned the surrounding area as if they were the most loyal guards. They needed to eliminate any uncertain factors.

The awning cast a dim light. The light was not bright, but it shined through the whole raft. From afar, it looked like the light was a part of the raft.

Suddenly, a wind blew and caused a wave to form. The raft moved and drifted.

At the depths of the Clear Moon Lake.

Countless figures flew in from different directions, levitating above the surface of the lake and searching for something.

“This area has the most complicated aura. If there’s an Immortal Relic, it’d be here for sure.”

“The signs appeared, it’s only a matter of time before the relic shows up.”

“Ha, I thought so too a month ago. I’ve been waiting here ever since. I thought I could have the relic all to myself, but who would’ve thought that the relic wouldn’t appear. Now, lots of people have learned about it.”

“Fellow cultivator, I had it worse than you. I discovered it half a year ago and I’ve been waiting ever since.”

“Sigh, seems like early birds don’t get the worm!”

Everyone was chatting away. Suddenly, the calm surface of the lake moved and a strange-looking rock slowly floated to the surface.

The rock was jet black and it had a deep hole in the middle. It looked like a beast that was opening its mouth.

Everyone freaked out. They looked hysterically happy. “Here it comes, the Immortal Relic!”

A figure swooped down in the dark as it laughed maniacally. “Haha, everyone, I’ll be making the first move. Bye!”

The figure approached the rock hole.

Suddenly, countless swords appeared in the air, stabbing the person until he looked like a porcupine.

Some cultivators did not have the time to react to that.

He should not have boasted. What a bad move.
