I get it!

The black-robed man stared at Lin Mufeng with wide eyes. He looked like he realized something. Its you! You mustve killed my precious student and stole the treasure! My student died tragically! I have to avenge him!

He was menacingly strong. The wind blew like sharp blades, slashing through the clouds.

The Lingyun Immortal Pavilion was about to be destroyed.

Plop!

Lin Mufeng went weak in the knees. He knelt and begged, Immortal, dont be angry. Please, dont be angry! I really did pull out the sword.

The black-robed man sneered, Impossible! You wouldnt be able to pass the first three tests. Quick, tell me, Where did you get it from?

Swoosh!

A sword flew past his neck swiftly. A strand of Lin Mufengs hair fell off.

Lin Mufeng instantly went stiff from fear.

He struggled for a long time. Then, he said, I didnt go to the secret border alone. Theres an expert!

The black-robed man looked convinced. I see. That persons most probably my student! Why did the expert give you the Excalibur?

He was an expert. Would he even be impressed by the Excalibur?

Lin Mufeng put the words together and said, This expert is incredibly powerful, free from the bonds of status. Hes beyond Immortals or ordinary folks. Im afraid he has no use for the Excalibur.

The black-robed man frowned. He said coldly, You think Ill believe that?

Immortal, Im telling the truth! Lin Mufeng looked serious. Although Im weak in cultivation and Ive never seen the Above Immortal Realm, Im certain hes more powerful than an Immortal!

Oh? The black-robed man was slightly surprised. Bring me to him!

Lin Mufeng awkwardly smiled and shook his head. Immortal, without the experts hint, I cant bring you to him. Perhaps you can wait until I get his permission?

You dare speak to me like that? Its as if hes the real deal, growled the black-robed man. He said, I have a way to know if youre telling the truth. Follow me to the Immortal Relic!

Then, he carried Lin Mufeng with him to the Clear Moon Lake.

Meanwhile, Li Nianfan had already rented a raft with an awning. It was drifting slowly across the Clear Moon Lake.

There were a lot of boats around the Clear Moon Lake. Fishermen boats came and went. They all looked really happy as if they had won the lottery. It was probably because they could catch all sorts of fish and shellfish through their fishing nets.

It also attracted a lot of cultivators who frequently flew by in the sky.

Of course, a lot of men and women came to lake drift, too. Many fancy boats were floating on the water.

This was why the rental fees were doubled.

Li Nianfan rowed the raft to the center of the lake. The oars disturbed the fishes that were swimming in the lake, causing them to swim away rapidly.

Suddenly, a big fish leaped out of the waters surface. It leaped over the raft and plopped back into the lake.

The fishes in the Immortal Realm were so lively!

Li Nianfan said weirdly, Awesome. Its been a month, right? Why are there still so many fishes in the lake? Does more fishing lead to more fish?

He did not say anything unnecessary. He immediately took out his fishing tools and sat crossed-legged on the raft, ready to fish.

He attached the bait and cast his line.

Pap!

The fishing line zipped through the air and landed nicely in the water.

An old fisherman was watching. He said, Young man, just cast a fishing net. Its rare seeing so many fishes like this. Using a fishing rod will be a waste!

Li Nianfan smiled and said, Old man, Im enjoying the process of fishing. Im not here to hunt for fishes.

The old fisherman shook his head. Wasteful, what a waste!

Li Nianfan did not say anything else. He quietly fished while enjoying the beautiful painting-like view. He was accompanied by a beautiful lady, too. This was a great life.

Daji leaned against Li Nianfan as she dipped her pretty fair feet in the water. Li Nianfan looked at her bare feet and thought to himself, Huh, now thats the real fish bait.

The little red bird on his shoulder spread her wings. She flew and perched on top of the awning.

She curiously tilted her head and looked around, observing everything with interest.

Then, she spread her wings again and glided across the surface of the lake. She was slightly annoyed.

At the bottom of the Clear Moon Lake.

It was extremely turbulent. Water pillars were being formed and powers were shooting back and forth like waves. It was kind of like a boiling fountain down there.

It was happening everywhere, and it seemed to be coming from the Eastside ocean. The water was full of power, causing all the fishes to swim up to the surface.

There was a golden door at the bottom of the Eastside ocean. A terrifying amount of fishes seemed to be swimming into it. Upon closer inspection, it was not the fishes that were swimming into to door. It was the waters current that was forcing the fish to swim inside!

Buzz!

Suddenly, the golden door started to shine. A powerful aura emitted from within it. It sucked in the ocean water, causing a huge wave.

The surrounding fishes instantly fled.

A voice could be heard.

The Dragon Doors open! The Dragon Doors really open!

How did this happen? I thought the Immortal Realm was dead?

Hold on, hold on a second. The door isnt completely opened yet. I wonder how the outside worlds doing?

Suddenly, a panicked shriek could be heard. Stop gossiping, the Seventh Princess is missing! Hurry up and find her!

Plop!

Li Nianfan raised his fishing rod gently and fished out a big carp. The fishs tail flapped about, causing water to splash in the air.

Splash!

The fish landed right into the bucket.

It was a big red bucket with twenty big fishes of various types inside. Li Nianfan looked at them swimming actively. He felt joyful and proud.

What nice gains.

Maybe this was the fun part of fishing.

Too bad. There are too many fish here. I feel like Im lacking a bit of a challenge. Li Nianfan put his fishing rod aside. He did not want to fish anymore.

Fishing was just for entertainment on this trip. He mainly focused on the fun of it.

Suddenly, a fishermans boat passed by coincidentally. There were three people on the boatan old man, a middle-aged man, and a lady.

The lady was responsible for sailing the boat. The old man and the middle-aged man were drawing their fishing net. The veins on their arms were popping out from the sheer force they were exerting. However, they looked excited.

The heavier it was meant that they had caught more fish.

The middle-aged man worriedly reminded, Dad, back up a little. Be careful. Dont get dragged down there.

Hey, you were just learning how to walk when I first brought you fishing. You think you can teach the old man how to do things now?

The old man scolded, Look closely!

He stepped back and bent backward. Then, he lifted the fishing net.

Splash!

The fishing net came out of the water. Splashes were everywhere.

Countless prawns and fishes were wiggling in the net, their scales brightly reflected under the sunlight.

Plop.

The fishing net was pulled up to their boat. The father and son instantly sat down and panted.

Li Nianfan smiled and said, Old man, you gained a lot.

Haha, its alright. The old man instantly smiled. You came here to lake drift?

Yeah. Li Nianfan was slightly curious. He asked, You guys have so much fish. Where are you going to ship them to?

The old man replied, The Xia Kingdom, of course. Theyre at war now and they lack food.

I see, Li Nianfan nodded. He was previously worried by the sudden increase in fishes. Would it not disrupt the fish market? He got his answer.

It seemed like the fish came at the right time.

Sir, let me tell you. The wars crazy. I sent fish to the injured soldiers before. It was a gory sight! said the old man. Then, he pointed in a direction and said, If you keep drifting in this direction to the other side, you can see the battlefield. You might even see floating corpses in the water, too.

Li Nianfan looked across the horizon, toward the Southside of the Clear Moon Lake.

Thanks for the notice, old man. Goodbye. Li Nianfan smiled and rowed. He gently drifted away and stopped disturbing that family.

The raft drifted. The gentle breeze on the face was very nice.

Plop!

Suddenly, there was a loud plop, followed by chaotic screaming.

Somebody fell into the water! Everyone, help!

Quick, who can swim?

Li Nianfan looked over with arched eyebrows.

Usually in this situation, most people around here would know how to swim. It would be easy to save them.

However, the one who fell into the water was a rich guy from a fancy boat. The fishermen were far away from the fancy boats and the other people on fancy boats may not know how to swim.

The rich guy was struggling in the water. It would probably take a while for someone to go save him.

Li Nianfan rowed his boat closer.

Huh? said the Fire Pho
