A chance encounter?
Everyone looked in the direction of the golden light and their hearts skipped a beat. They stood respectfully at the entrance of the Southern Heavenly Gate and waited.
Lu Yue's breathing suddenly stopped. He was stunned by this unexpected surprise.
It was as if you were still thinking about meeting your idol a moment ago, and the next moment, he appeared beside you. It was too unexpected.
It was this expert who could easily destroy my Dao of Plague. He made me lose without knowing why, but at the same time, I was convinced.
This was like an ant who couldn't understand the strength of a human, but could feel the strength of a human. It was too amazing. They only wanted to respect and worship him.
The golden cloud was getting closer and closer. Everyone's blood flow slowed down.
He's here. He's here.
Lu Yue didn't even dare to breathe. He waited quietly like a prisoner. His heart was slightly tense.
Not long after, Li Nianfan's figure landed on the Southern Heavenly Gate. He looked at Lan 'er and the rest who were waiting for him at the entrance and smiled. "Oh, you're back too? What a coincidence. "
His gaze quickly landed on Lu Yue. He raised his eyebrows. He already knew that the God of Plagues was really Lu Yue.
Most importantly, Lu Yue's characteristics were too recognizable. His hair was like cinnabar, his huge mouth had sharp teeth, and his three round eyes were exactly the same as the description in the Investiture of the Gods. It was difficult to find a second person with such an appearance.
He looked quite scary.
However, this person was sandwiched in the middle. He looked slightly dispirited. It was obvious that he had been executed.
However … why are you staring at me with shining eyes? What is the meaning of this?
Lan 'er and the rest bowed together and said respectfully, "Greetings, Deluxe Merit Saint."
Li Nianfan hurriedly said, "Aiya, how many times have I told you? You don't have to be so polite. You will make me, a mortal, arrogant."
A group of immortals bowed to him. The key was that he didn't have any cultivation. It still felt very awkward. How was he supposed to behave?
Xiao Chengfeng and Lan 'er didn't reply. They didn't know what to say.
Boss, I'm begging you, don't be so humble. If you're so humble, I'm afraid we'll become arrogant!
Heng 'e winked at Li Nianfan and said with a smile, "Lord Saint, I'm counting on you to give me merit."
"Hahaha, you're honest. Don't worry, my back door will always be open for you."
Li Nianfan laughed heartily. He glanced at the crowd and frowned. He said in surprise, "However, your merit points are still lacking. I can't give you anything."
Lan 'er nodded and said, "This time, it didn't cause a disaster, and the negative karma isn't deep. We know that."
Li Nianfan smiled and said, "If that's the case, this trip can be considered smooth."
Heng 'e smiled and said, "Everything went smoothly."
Lan 'er raised her hand and took the disinfectant in her hand. She handed it over and lowered her head as she said softly, "Lord Sage, I'll return this disinfectant to you."
Li Nianfan looked at the disinfectant and was stunned for a moment. He said in surprise, "You actually brought this thing back? Doesn't it work against the plague? "
Lan 'er was so shocked that she jumped. She quickly waved her hand and said, "No, no, it's very useful in disinfection."
Li Nianfan waved his hand and said, "Since it's useful, let's leave it in the mortal world. Anyway, it's not a treasure. It's useless to return it to me."
This thing is not a treasure?
How can you say such a thing so confidently?
Even though they were used to seeing big scenes with Li Nianfan, Xiao Chengfeng and the others still felt their hearts twitch. They could not stand it anymore.
Most importantly, they could tell that Li Nianfan's words were not pretentious at all. He said it casually from the bottom of his heart. He did not care about it at all. It was as if the disinfectant was really trash. This was even more hurtful.
It was like a billionaire telling you that ten thousand dollars was nothing. This was very normal for him. He was not trying to be pretentious, but this kind of unintentional hurt you even more.
Even Xiao Chengfeng and the others could not stand it, let alone Lu Yue.
Li Nianfan's words landed in his ears like thunder. It shook him until he was dizzy. His mouth flattened, and he almost cried out loud.
It was too hurtful.
This was a personal attack, and it was a critical hit.
If this thing is not a treasure, then what am I?
Lu Yue began to torture himself in his heart. In the end, the answer was trash.
He glanced at the disinfectant. Finally, his eyes darkened. He made up his mind. As the saying goes, wealth comes from danger. The expert is right in front of me. If I don't know how to fight for this, then my Dao … is not worth cultivating!
Although I'm trash in the eyes of the expert, I want to prove myself. I'm trash that knows how to make progress!
He took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "Lord … Lord Saint, can you give this disinfectant to me?"
As soon as he said that, the entire place seemed to have quietened down. Lu Yue could hear his own heartbeat thumping. Even the hair on his body stood up. Goosebumps appeared all over his body. The third eye on his forehead protruded out of nervousness.
It was too exciting!
At this moment, he felt like he had returned to the time when he was studying under the Jie Sect. He was not even this nervous when he became a disciple of a Saint.
Of course, he was looking forward to it more.
"You want it? I'll give it to you. "
Li Nianfan did not even think about it and agreed. In his eyes, the disinfectant was nothing.
Moreover … Lu Yue's cultivation was not low. He was also the God of Plagues. His ability was too terrifying. Why not give him a small gift to sell a favor?
However, these casual words touched Lu Yue's heart. It caused a storm in his heart. Emotions such as excitement, disbelief, and gratitude surged in his heart.
He agreed just like that?
The expert did not even think about giving such a treasure to a prisoner like me.
Everything I have on me, even if I sold myself, it wouldn't be worth a bottle of disinfectant!
I …
What did I do to deserve it!
Was this the magnanimity of the expert?
Lu Yue sniffled. His eyes welled up. He quickly swallowed the tears that gushed out and said solemnly, "Thank you, Lord Saint."
Li Nianfan smiled and looked at Lu Yue in surprise. "I'm curious. What do you want this for?"
"I want to know why this disinfectant can disinfect." Lu Yue paused for a moment before continuing, "I was fortunate enough to read Lord Sage's Shennong Hundred Herbs Scripture. I felt a lot of things, but the more I felt, the more confused I became. Lord Sage said that everything in the world has a counter to each other and that there is no poison in the world that cannot be cured.
Li Nianfan was stunned.
He never thought that the God of Plagues would be his fan.
However, it was not strange. The medicine that he passed down was actually counter to plagues. As the God of Plagues, it was no wonder that he would pay attention to it.
Li Nianfan pondered for a moment, then smiled. "Of course it's true."
The God of Plagues could not help but ask, "Why is that? Then what's the use of my plagues? Wouldn't I be a useless god? "
"Hahaha, you're digging a dead end."
Li Nianfan looked at the God of Plagues' three eyes wide open. He suddenly felt that it was extremely funny. He smiled and said, "Nothing is absolute. Don't water and fire also counter each other? But can you say that cultivating water and fire is useless? Although my disinfectant can disinfect, it can only eliminate the lowest level of toxins. You're the God of Plagues. If you casually cast a powerful plague, this disinfectant will definitely not work. "
Lu Yue's body trembled. He was hit hard again.
Sorry, your disinfectant is not only effective, it even cleansed me, the God of Plagues …
Please don't use me as an example. I don't deserve it.
Lu Yue was deep in thought. He then frowned and said, "But I still don't understand why my plagues are countered."
"Aiyo, that's a good question!"
Li Nianfan looked at Lu Yue in surprise. He nodded slightly, and his eyes could not help but reveal a hint of admiration. "It means that you're a person who likes to think."
Under the natural rules of the world, many people would think that many things happened as a matter of course.
Immortal cultivators called it the laws of the world, and very few would explore it.
Of course, after one's cultivation reached a high level, one could use magic power to change a part of the laws. This was much more impressive than Li Nianfan. However … there was something else outside of the laws!
Most people, including immortals, only knew what it was, but did not know why.
Now, Lu Yue had brought it up.
This made Li Nianfan feel a sense of superiority. Even immortals could not compare to my wisdom.
Facing Li Nianfan's admiring gaze, Lu Yue felt his scalp tingle. He did not know what was going on, and he felt a little flustered.
He couldn't help but look around, only to see Xiao Chengfeng and the others looking at him with envy, with a hint of admiration.
This seems to be the first time the expert has praised someone, right?
That's too awesome!
Is Lu Yue's question that impressive? Why can't I tell?
To be praised by the expert, that's too unbelievable. Xiao Chengfeng could not help but be impressed. As expected of the number one person in the Jie Sect. That's awesome.
Lu Yue braced himself and said, "Lord Saint, I … I don't understand."
Li Nianfan's face turned serious. He cleared his throat and said mysteriously, "Actually … your question concerns the essence of the world!"
"The essence of the world?"
Everyone's hearts were beating wildly. Just those five words made their scalps tingle. A layer of goosebumps appeared all over their bodies.
Horrifying, extremely horrifying!
Taboo, that was definitely the greatest taboo in the world!
Excitement, anticipation, curiosity, nervousness, and other emotions engulfed them like a torrential river, leaving them at a loss.
Can this thing be heard? If we know too much, will we die?
Forget it, if we hear the truth in the morning, we can die in the evening!
At that moment, all the blood in their bodies stopped flowing. They turned into statues. They pricked up their ears and did not even breathe. They quietly waited for Li Nianfan to continue.
Li Nianfan saw everyone's reaction and was even more delighted. He cleared his throat and said, "First of all, you have to know what the plague is."
Lu Yue was dumbfounded. He felt that his brain could not wrap itself around it. "Isn't the plague a plague? What else could it be? "
Li Nianfan said, "Long'er, conjure a water ball."
Long'er obeyed and waved his hand. Instantly, a huge water ball appeared in front of everyone.
Li Nianfan continued, "Then let me talk about something more general. What is the water in front of us?"
Lan'er's eyes widened. "Water is water."
"Wrong, it's elements!"
Li Nianfan shook his head and continued, "The dragon, phoenix, and qilin races evolved from the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind. To be more specific, water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen!"
