I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

aced her, stroked her fur, and asked, “What are you doing here?”

Little Fox batted her eyelids and in a worried tone, she said, “Sister Daji, I heard that a very powerful bad man traveled to our dimension to kill us all and that you were injured in the fight.
Are you okay? I was so worried about you.”

“There’s no need to worry about me.
Nothing bad will ever happen to me, okay? The bad man’s gone now,” said Daji with a smile.
However, she suddenly felt a lurch in her heart as her mana trembled in her body.
Blood began to trickle out of the corner of her lips.

Little Fox had just heaved a sigh of relief and was about to behave in a coquettish manner when the sight of Daji spewing blood stopped her from doing so.
She went into a state of shock and her fur was standing on end.
Tears trailed down her face as she said, “Sister Daji, how can you say you’re okay when there’s blood coming out of your mouth? What should I do? What should I do?”

“It’s only a minor injury.
It’ll heal soon enough.
I should really count myself lucky that I’m still alive,” said Daji with a pained smile on her face.
Then, as if she could not control herself anymore, she puked out more blood.

“Ah! Sister Daji, you’re puking blood!” Little Fox’s panic shot through the roof.
She did not know what to do and started to sob loudly.

Daji smiled and stroked her fur.
“There, there.
I’m okay.
Don’t worry.
I’ll protect you no matter what,” she said in a gentle tone.

“I want to protect you, too, Sister Daji, but I’m too weak!” said the Little Fox while sobbing.
Her two ears drooped down as she held onto Daji tightly, afraid that Daji would leave her alone.
As someone who worshipped her sister, Little Fox wished she could avenge Daji, especially after seeing her like this, but alas she was too weak.

“Sister Daji, I’ve decided to go through the Cross Tribulation so that I can transform!” said Little Fox.

“Are you sure you want to transform? I mean… I won’t force you to transform if you’re not ready for it,” said Daji.

“Yes, I’m sure.
I’ll transform so I won’t be a burden to you anymore,” said Little Fox in a determined tone.

Qin Manyun and the others were looking at Little Fox with pity in their eyes.
They thought that Little Fox was very naive to have fallen for Daji’s trick.
Not to mention, they never expected Daji to have such a mischievous side to her.

Daji smiled secretly and said, “I won’t stop you then, since you’re so determined.
I’m sure you’ll transform in no time if you stay by the Master’s side.”

“Yes, I can attest to that, Little Fox.
I went through my Cross Tribulation here.
With Brother Li by your side, the natural tribulation won’t be too harsh on you.
In fact, dare I say it was a very comfortable experience,” said Nanan with a smile.

They entered the four-part architecture while continuing the conversation.
At that time, the sky was beginning to lighten when Li Nianfan walked out of his room.
He was startled when he saw Daji and the rest of the group gathered in the yard.
“You’re all very early.
I guess that makes me the latest, then.”

Nanan pointed to Little Fox who was being carried by Daji and said, “Brother Li, look who came for a visit.”

“Hey, Little Fox,” said Li Nianfan, his eyes shining brightly with happiness.
It had been a long time since he saw this sister-in-law of his.
“Come and give me a hug.” He walked over to her, picked her up from Daji, and kept stroking her.
‘This is so nice’ he thought.
The feeling was just as he remembered.

“Huh? Did you slim down? The food over there mustn’t have been as good as the food here,” said Li Nianfan.

Little Fox started to drool and in a voice filled with anticipation said, “Yes! I missed you so much that I couldn’t eat nor sleep.”

“As if I’d believe you.
You would’ve come to visit me sooner if that was really the case,” said Li Nianfan with a laugh.
“There are many new dishes since the last time you’ve been here.
We have dragonfruit, Dragon Blood Wine, sunflower seeds, and the walnuts should be ripe now.
You can eat to your heart’s content!”

Little Fox kept nodding at him as he listed out the food, which was all she could think about right now.

“Let’s do some morning exercise together before having our breakfast,” said Li Nianfan.
It had become a habit of theirs to do the morning exercise with him every day.
“The rest of you join in, too.
The morning exercise is especially good for cultivating your sentiments.
Xiao Bai, music, please!”

After finishing a set of tai chi moves, Li Nianfan instructed Xiao Bai to prepare a rich breakfast spread for them while he went to the backyard to pick some fruits for Little Fox.
Due to Little Fox’s visit, their breakfast was richer than normal.
There was honey milk cake, soy milk, fruit platters, and many other snacks.
Little Fox dug in happily and had her cravings satisfied.

After breakfast, she laid down on the table and gently rubbed her bulging tummy with her eyes closed.
As for Li Nianfan, he was eating the recently ripened walnut.
He peeled the walnut shell and said, “Walnut’s really good for the body but they’re so hard to peel.
Wouldn’t it be great if there’s some kind of specialized tool for peeling walnuts?”

“I can go look for a tool if you want, Master,” said Daji.

“That’ll be great! Look for something that can easily crack open the walnut,” said Li Nianfan.

Daji and the others nodded their heads and reminded themselves to look for a tool like that as soon as possible.
Being the ultimate existence in all of the dimensions meant that one was always following the trajectory set up by Wisdom and that one could even decide the fate of all others.
Therefore, Daji and the others concluded that Li Nianfan must be looking for a very unique tool to use on the walnut.
Moreover, their search for the tool was made more difficult by the fact that the walnut had come from a Spiritual Root, meaning to say that only a handful of items would be worthy enough to be used on the walnut.
They would need to alert the people of the Heavenly Palace of this special mission since Li Nianfan had personally requested for the tool.

“Master, my sister wants to go through the Cross Tribulation and transform,” said Daji.

“Cross Tribulation and transform?” repeated Li Nianfan with surprise.

Suddenly, Little Fox jumped up, all the colors drained from her face.
Her eyes were filled with anxiety, making her seem pitiful and weak.
She had totally forgotten about her previous determination to go through the Cross Tribulation.
For a demon to transform, they would need to go through the Cross Tribulation which had the added benefit of increasing their cultivation.
The power of the natural tribulation correlated with the demon’s cultivation level and Little Fox, being a Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal, would need to face a natural tribulation that was more powerful than the average.

Li Nianfan picked up Little Fox.
“Why do you suddenly want to transform?” he asked with curiosity.
He was stroking her non-stop as he spoke to her for he would not be able to do this again once Little Fox had transformed.
He had to enjoy it while he could before she transformed into a human.
