Fantasy: I'm Really Not A Supreme Master!

Chapter 370: Chapter 327 In front of the sick tree, ten thousand trees bloom_1

Desolate Heaven Alliance.

Ji Yuanqing led his clan members, arrived at this place, and after informing them, quickly entered the main hall of the alliance.

“Senior, it’s been many days, are you well?”

Fire Spirit asked with a smile, as they were already old friends with Ji Yuanqing.

However, Ji Yuanqing spoke up,

“Thank you, Alliance Hierarch, for your concern. All is well with my clan!”

“Today, we come to request joining the Desolate Heaven Alliance!”

Upon hearing this, Fire Spirit and Mu Qianning exchanged a glance immediately.

With a puzzled expression, Mu Qianning asked, “Senior, why have you suddenly decided to do this?”

They already knew that Ji Yuanqing’s lineage was a branch of the Ji Clan!

The Ji Family was an Imperial Clan; by all logic, they should be rejoining their family.

And now, they had actually decided to join the Desolate Heaven Alliance?

Ji Yuanqing let out a deep sigh before speaking,

“The family will not accommodate us; we have already been expelled from the Ji Family and have nowhere to go.”

“Everything we have was bestowed by Senior Li. From this day forth, we wish to follow by Senior Li’s side and serve him!”

Upon hearing this, Fire Spirit pondered for a moment.

“This matter, we still need to report to Senior Li first.”

She replied.

After all, the matter involved the Imperial Clan!

“Sister Ling’er, let’s go find Senior Li now!”

Mu Qianning stood up and spoke.

…

The small mountain village.

It was already dusk.

“I wonder how Da De and the others are doing…”

Li Fan was sitting under the peach tree, leisurely drinking tea, somewhat expectant!

After all, according to Fire Spirit, ever since his White Tiger Roaring Sky Map had gone out, someone in the outside world had been able to draw a Kirin Map to match it!

He had made a Kirin Emergence Painting himself; could it surpass the other?

For many years, this was the first time he felt a sense of competitiveness and anticipation!

After all, previously, his various skills had always been for his own entertainment.

“Master, we have returned.”

At this moment, the voice of Wu Dade came from outside the door.

“Come in.”

Li Fan immediately replied.

Wu Dade and Lin Jiu Zheng pushed the door and entered; Big Black Dog followed behind Wu Dade, and on Lin Jiu Zheng’s shoulder, there sat a small creature!

The small creature had a dragon’s head, an elk’s body, a cow’s tail, and horse’s hooves!

Just now, upon entering the small courtyard, its big eyes suddenly revealed a timid expression, looking somewhat fearful!

Seeing this small creature, everyone in the courtyard was surprised and delighted!

“Wow, what kind of animal is this? It’s too cute!”

Zi Ling’s eyes sparkled as she walked over, curiously looking at the Little Kirin!

“This… could it be a Kylin? It’s identical to the one Master drew in the Kirin Emergence Painting!”

Nan Feng’s expression was complicated!

Apparently, the Master drew the Kirin Emergence Painting precisely because of this Little Kirin, right?

His Master must have foreseen that there would be a Kylin in the outside world, which is why he sent Junior Brother Lin and the others out!

“The Divine Beast of legend has actually been brought back by Junior Brother Lin…”

Jiang Li and the others were even more astonished!

“Not bad, not bad at all! Just don’t know what this little guy eats? If it eats grass that would be good; it can be raised alongside my Little Gold Bull!”

Lu Rang was also brimming with excitement; he pulled the Little Gold Bull over, and when it saw the Little Kirin, curiosity filled its big eyes as well.

The Little Kirin was initially quite timid, but when it saw the Little Gold Bull, it suddenly seemed happier and bleated softly at the Little Gold Bull.

The Little Gold Bull responded with “moo moo”!

The two little ones, as if they were greeting each other.

Meanwhile, Lin Jiu Zheng saluted Li Fan, saying,

“Master, the task has been completed perfectly!”

“Furthermore, we have found a rare animal and a rare plant!”

As he spoke, he took out the Old Tree Stump.

When the Old Tree Stump appeared in the courtyard, the ancient timber seemed to tremble slightly!

Li Fan was taken aback upon hearing this.

The Crystal Chip had lit up; there was no mistake.

This time, the rewards were indeed substantial!

He walked over and, seeing the Little Kirin, couldn’t help but smile, saying,

“I had no idea that such beings actually existed in the world!”

Worthy of the Immortal Domain, where one can find all that is marvelously strange!

Even a Kylin existed? Such a creature, Li Fan had only heard about in myths and legends; no wonder it was a rare species.

He couldn’t help but gently stroke the head of the Little Kirin.

The Little Kirin’s big eyes looked at Li Fan, and far from being shy, it affectionately nuzzled Li Fan’s hand.

“Not bad, Jiu Zheng, take care of this little animal from now on.”

Li Fan said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiu Zheng was overjoyed, responding,

“At your command! I will take good care of it!”

And the Little Kirin, as if understanding, immediately began to frolic in Lin Jiu Zheng’s embrace.

“Ah, Master, next time I want to go out and find a pet too, I can’t hold back anymore!”

Seeing this, Zi Ling’s eyes filled with envy.

The other disciples were also increasingly expectant, wondering when their Master would grant them such an opportunity.

After all, adopting a Divine Beast was an opportunity not to be missed!

Li Fan also smiled.

“By the way, Master,”

At this moment, Lin Jiu Zheng spoke again, saying,

“This old tree…”

Hope filled his eyes.

The tree was nearly devoid of life, and he was genuinely concerned, whether it could be saved or not.

Little Kirin, too, had leaped to the side of the old tree stump, its large eyes looking at Li Fan pitifully, as if pleading on behalf of the old tree.

Li Fan gazed at the old tree stump and pondered for a moment.

Indeed, the stump was at the end of its life, nearly beyond salvation.

However, since it was a rare plant, no matter what, it was worth a try!

“Gong Ya, fetch a pot of cool tea.”

He immediately spoke up!

Hearing this, Gong Ya behind him promptly said,

“At once!”

She quickly brought over a pot of cool tea and handed it to Li Fan.

Li Fan immediately lifted the teapot and poured the cool tea onto the old tree stump!

In an instant, on the decayed old tree stump, a tender green branch unexpectedly sprouted!

That branch, like the young shoots of willow in early spring, appeared fragile but carried unlimited vitality!

Seeing this scene, all the disciples were instantly astounded!

“This… With just a pot of tea, Master can actually revive the dead Kirin Divine Tree?”

Wu Dade was shocked.

“Master’s method is reversing life and death, it’s terrifying…”

Lu Rang’s eyes filled with profound seriousness, as he murmured,

“Indeed, the Cultivation and Rearing Path, when cultivated to the extreme, can also become the world’s most magical secret technique!”

Confidence unparalleled filled his eyes!

“Master’s medical skills can heal all things in the world… It’s against the natural order!”

Su Baiqian was extremely astonished as well; she took a deep breath, and in that moment, she felt Li Fan had opened up a new world for her.

A healer, can heal all things in the world!

Upon seeing this, Li Fan was also somewhat surprised!

In the past, when he was tormented by the System in his planting skills, he learned that tea water, once cooked, contains various minerals and organic substances, which are beneficial for plant growth!

He hadn’t expected it to actually be useful.

It seemed that although the System was rubbish in terms of cultivation, the knowledge about agricultural techniques was still reliable!

If he could travel to other worlds, with his agricultural skills alone, he could cultivate and create a new realm!

Li Fan couldn’t help but feel emotional as he looked at the old tree stump and said,

“Beside the sunken ship, a thousand sails pass by; in front of the sick tree, a myriad of woods thrive in spring.”

“To be able to revive today is also a matter of fate!”

“Lu Rang, plant the old stump beside the little sapling, and remember to protect its roots with the tea leaves from the cool tea.”

The tea leaves in the cool tea, being cooked, are rich in organics, and their decomposition is beneficial to the plant’s root system!

Upon hearing this, Lu Rang beside him immediately said,

“Alright, Master!”

He carried the old tree stump to plant it.

“Beside the sunken ship, a thousand sails pass by; in front of the sick tree, a myriad of woods thrive in spring… Big Brother, these two lines of poetry… are so meaningful!”

At this time, Xinning beside him spoke up, her eyes filled with a hint of curiosity and expectation, saying,

“Big Brother, can you teach me?”

She clearly felt that within these two lines of poetry, there were elements of world-changing vicissitudes, a kind of sorrow that had seen life and death, and a loneliness of solitary traveling…

If comprehended thoroughly, perhaps she could ascend another step!

Upon hearing this, Li Fan also smiled. Xinning was indeed eager to learn; his teachings had not been in vain all this time.

He immediately said,

“Of course I can.”

As he spoke, he recited the entire poem:

“In the desolate lands of Bashan and Chu waters, twenty-three years have I abandoned this body.”

“Yearning for the past, I recite poetry upon hearing the flute, returning to my hometown I seem like a weathered man.”

“Beside the sunken boat sails a thousand ships, in front of the sick tree blooms the spring of a thousand woods.”

“Today as I listen to your song, I’ll let the wine bolster my spirits temporarily.”Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He finished reciting.

As his poem concluded, Xinning’s big eyes fell into deep contemplation!

“Yearning for the past, I recite poetry upon hearing the flute, returning to my hometown I seem like a weathered man… Beside the sunken boat sails a thousand ships, in front of the sick tree blooms the spring of a thousand woods… Big Brother, what great times have you experienced?”

“The Brahmanic Dharma says that solitude lies on the other shore… Is the mentor alone on that shore, waiting for something? His grand aspiration is to outlast the passing ships and to see the spring of all woods… Does he wish to ferry all beings across? His spirit shocks all ages, truly a figure of Supreme Brahman!”

Qing Chen gazed at Li Fan with sincere and feverish admiration in his eyes!

“In the desolate lands of Bashan and Chu waters, twenty-three years have I abandoned this body… Master, have you waited alone? How many years of change has he weathered to attain such enlightenment?”

Nan Feng murmured to herself, looking at Li Fan with a peculiar emotion suddenly shimmering in her beautiful eyes.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that behind the mentor’s seemingly carefree and easygoing appearance hid a past full of unspeakable sorrow…

“Beside the sunken boat sails a thousand ships, in front of the sick tree blooms the spring of a thousand woods… Is this why the mentor took us in? After enduring a great catastrophe, he was left alone… So, does he need disciples to stand against a great disaster…”

But Jiang Li’s heart suddenly surged with emotion as he stared at Li Fan, recalling something the Emperor of Black and White once said: “Through the ages, the mentor stands alone against the calamities of countless worlds!”

His eyes were filled with immense respect!

Zi Ling also seemed to think of something, her big eyes growing moist as she said, “Master… from now on, we will be by your side… You won’t be alone!”

Seeing this, Li Fan was momentarily startled.

What were these disciples doing?

But he quickly understood; they had taken the poem to be a reflection of his own feelings? After all, the poem did carry a sense of desolation and loneliness.

“You needn’t feel this way; the mentor was just casually expressing sentiment, it’s nothing serious.”

Li Fan smiled and turned to Wu Dade, saying,

“Da De, where did you find such a plump green fish?”

Wu Dade, who had listened to Li Fan’s poetry and was still confused about why his fellow brothers and sisters looked that way—because he had never been to school!

He did not know the meaning behind the poetry…

Now seeing that the master had spoken, he immediately said with joy,

“Master, we owe it to this Dead Dog. It was the one who caught the fish!”

“You see, it’s still fresh and alive, truly top-quality ingredients!”

Li Fan nodded, responding,

“It does look quite nice. Such a big fish should suffice for us to have a meal.”

“Tonight, the mentor will cook you all a fish hotpot!”

Upon hearing this, many disciples were overjoyed, and their earlier melancholy was swept away.
