The next day.
The sky brightened earlier than usual.
Li Nianfan opened the door, but his eyes could not help but squint slightly. This was because of the light.
Not only was the snow early this time, but it was also very heavy.
In just one night, a thick layer of snow had piled up outside. The sunlight shone on the snow, reflecting the light and increasing the brightness of the world.
The ground, the walls, and the trees were all covered in silver.
"Good morning, Master."
Xiao Bai was dutifully sweeping the snow with a broom, exposing the road. She said to Li Nianfan, "Breakfast is ready. It's soy milk and youtiao."
"You're really good, Xiao Bai." Li Nianfan smiled and nodded.
Soy milk and youtiao was Li Nianfan's favorite combination. Every winter, drinking a mouthful of hot soy milk in the morning was simply a pleasure. Xiao Bai remembered Li Nianfan's preference, so every day when it snowed, she would prepare this breakfast.
Li Nianfan had naturally experienced many snowy days when he came to the cultivation world.
Xiao Bai said very politely, "Master, you're too kind. It's Xiao Bai's fortune to be able to serve Master."
Li Nianfan's heart skipped a beat. He could not help but slowly rise into the sky on a cloud, overlooking the earth from the sky.
This was a world of white. First, the entire mountain was dyed white. Then, the entire world was covered in a layer of white carpet. It was very visually impactful.
After admiring the snowy scenery for a while, Li Nianfan landed from the sky.
At the same time, little Daji and Huo Feng also walked out of the room.
Daji's little eyes were a little resentful. She was a little indifferent to Huo Feng. After all, her good thing was ruined just like that. She lost hundreds of millions. It was really too maddening.
Li Nianfan said, "Little Daji, good morning. Why are you so listless? Did you not sleep well last night?"
"Morning, Young Master." Daji bit her lips and said, "Sleeping with Sister Huo Feng is too uncomfortable. I won't sleep with her in the future."
Huo Feng couldn't help but retort, "Hmph, I'm the victim here. You like to scratch people when you sleep."
Daji immediately said, "Bah, you like to bite people."
"Hahaha." Li Nianfan was amused. These two women must have been very interesting together last night.
He shouted into the room, "Long'er, Nanna, get up and have breakfast."
"Oh, big brother, you're here."
Long'er and Nanna quickly got dressed and walked out of the room.
When they saw the snowy scenery outside, their eyes immediately lit up. They cheered and wanted to roll around in the snow.
Li Nianfan had already scooped out a bowl of hot soy milk. "Alright, after breakfast, I'll take you guys to build a snowman."
Long'er and Nanna were even more excited. "Really? That's great! "
This was the first snow of the year, and it was rare for it to be so heavy. Nanna and Long'er were given a break to play with them. The whole afternoon was spent in a happy atmosphere.
The result of the morning was two cute snowmen on both sides of the entrance of the courtyard house.
"Alright, let's start preparing lunch." Li Nianfan already had a plan in mind. He smiled and said, "Nanna, Long'er, you two are in charge of picking vegetables in the backyard. It's so cold today, it's best to gather together and eat hotpot."
At the same time, at the foot of the mountain.
Three figures descended from the sky and slowly walked up the mountain.
"Tsk tsk —"
Their feet stepped on the thick snow and made a sound. They sank deep into the snow, leaving footprints.
It was Gu Xirou, Pei An, and Gu Changqing.
Of course, they had noticed the fireworks last night. They were surprised to find that the fireworks came from the Fallen Immortal Mountain. They immediately guessed that the expert had returned, so they prepared to pay him a visit as soon as possible.
Gu Changqing was carrying a huge black goat on his shoulder. It was not dead and was still breathing weakly.
This was not an ordinary black goat. It was the king of the black goat demons, the Black Goat King. They worked together to hunt it down from the Immortal Realm.
They knew that the expert loved wild meat, so they purposely searched for suitable wild meat in the Immortal Realm. They even caught a few demons, such as tiger demons, leopard demons, and wolf demons. They interrogated them to find out which kind of meat was the most delicious.
The unanimous answer was black goat meat.
They searched for a long time and spent a lot of effort to get this black goat demon.
This was the most they could do for the expert. They were full of sincerity.
Actually, this black goat demon had been caught many days ago. However, when they came to visit the expert, they found that he was not at home. They kept it until now and fed it well to keep it fat.
Gu Xirou said, "I feel a little embarrassed to give the expert a black goat meat. But we have no other choice."
Gu Changqing nodded and said, "Unfortunately, we have limited treasures. Otherwise, we could do the same thing and exchange it for treasures for the expert."
Pei An said, "Anyway, we have to think of more ways."
As they spoke, they arrived at the four-part architecture.
They saw the two snowmen at the entrance of the four-part architecture. It seemed that the expert had returned.
As they walked into the snowman, their hearts began to beat wildly.
The snowmen were holding Spiritual Roots. Not only that, some of the ornaments on their bodies were Acquired Spiritual Treasures. Even the carrot on their noses was Spiritual Root Immortal Fruit!
One of the snowmen even had a square handkerchief on its head. It was a Pre-Creation Spiritual Treasure!
To put it bluntly, this snowman was worth more than the three of them combined.
'You might not believe me, but I'm not as good as a snowman. I'm ashamed!'
Pei An and the other two felt bitter and ashamed.
However, in the next moment, they were attracted by the golden color in the snowman's hand. Their pupils constricted and they were in disbelief.
"Merit, merit … merit?"
Pei An's eyes widened. His lips were dry and his throat was dry. He was so shocked that he could not speak.
In the snowman's other hand, there was a small golden lotus flower. It was so beautiful, and golden light flowed around it. It was actually a Virtuous Lotus Flower!
Waves of holy and vast will rolled towards the three of them.
Although the Merit Lotus was not big, it was so much merit. An ordinary immortal would not be able to accumulate that much merit in their lifetime. Most of them did not even have the right to touch it.
Suddenly, they felt that flaunting their wealth was so low. The snowman was flaunting his merit!
Who else in the world could do that?
Fortunately, the mental endurance of the three of them had been tempered to a very high level. They quickly adjusted themselves and suppressed their shock.
Gu Changqing stepped forward and respectfully knocked three times. "Is Young Master Li home?"
"Creak."
The door opened.
Xiao Bai peeked out from behind the door. "Please come in."
"Thank you."
Pei An and the other two walked out slowly. Gu Changqing carried the black goat and carefully found an empty space to put it down.
Li Nianfan was still holding a plate. It was full of side dishes for hotpot. Seeing this scene, he could not help but laugh and tease, "Did you bring food to freeload?"
Gu Xirou quickly replied respectfully, "Young Master Li, the delicious taste of this black goat is known far and wide. We just happened to catch one and brought it to you."
"How thoughtful. Actually, you came at the right time. We are short of mutton here."
Li Nianfan was not pretentious. He said directly, "Mutton is best in winter. Xiao Bai, while there is still time, quickly tidy up and make some mutton rolls. This is a must-have for hotpot!"
