I Might Be A Fake Cultivator Chapter 1047

What goes around comes around.

Right now, Lan Xiaoni was experiencing the meaning behind these words.

That’s right. After being cocky for a short while, she was f*cked over. Right now, she was leaping toward An Lin like a poor bludger. All she wanted to do was to grab onto An Lin’s coattail and not let go.

It was evident that the blue water barrier didn’t have any effect on the sea monsters either. Ji De was also able to charge through it and continue chasing after Lan Xiaoni.

“Don’t block the path!”

An Lin embraced Lan Xiaoni’s soft and slender waist with his left arm and hurled her to the side.

At this moment, Ji De’s silver harpoon had already stabbed over with a formidable might!

An Lin didn’t have time to draw his sword, so he directly grabbed at the silver harpoon with his bare hands.

Boom!

A kind of terrifying energy erupted outward, and the silver harpoon was clasped by An Lin’s bare hands.

The insanely pointy tip of the harpoon was unable to penetrate An Lin’s skin.

Ji De’s eyes widened in shock. “How is this possible?!”

The corners of An Lin’s lips curled up into a slight smile. “I’m also extremely annoyed. I’m so awesome that you all have to ask ‘how is it possible’ every time. But this is genuinely how powerful I am!”

Right as An Lin finished speaking, his other fist had already punched out!

This fist smashed toward Ji De’s chest, and it was evident that it was a mere physical attack that didn’t possess any spell technique powers. However, Ji De could sense that this fist was just as powerful as Lan Xiaoni’s mystic technique!

There’s no time to dodge!

Boom!

A large hole was hammered into Ji De’s sturdy, dark-gold body.

“Pffft…” Ji De spat out a mouthful of blood as it flew backward.

The octopus monster crashed through the water barrier and tumbled back onto the wooden bridge.

An Lin didn’t relent and cast a bolt of Golden Void Lightning toward it.

The bolt of Golden Void Lightning ripped through the void and arced down toward the octopus monster.

Boom!

The bolt of golden lightning exploded when it hit the water barrier.

An Lin: “…”

Sh*t! I forgot about this f*cking racist barrier!

Who knew that it could also block foreign spell techniques? How the hell was he supposed to fight now?

Ji De’s body was riddled with injuries, and it was currently collapsed on the ground. After seeing An Lin’s struggle, it finally started to laugh. “Hahaha, so what if you’re powerful? If you can’t cross this barrier, then I’ll be a male that you can never obtain!”

An Lin grimaced. So be it if your appearance is repulsive. Why say such things to disgust me?

Suddenly, a blue figure crossed through the barrier and slashed a bright blue ice sword toward the fallen Ji De.

This slash was especially fearsome, and it drained all of the female’s remaining energy.

“No!” Ji De wailed in anguish as its body was sliced into two by the ice blade.

An Lin was unable to cross through the barrier, but Lan Xiaoni was able to!

Lan Xiaoni’s ice-blade slowly vanished. Her face was extremely pale, and her petite body swayed feebly. It looked as though she was about to collapse at any moment. However, she gritted her teeth and forcefully stabilized her balance.

She bent her fishtail and slowly squatted down. Then, she started running her hands over Ji De’s corpse.

An Lin: “…”

He was extremely familiar with this process of killing bosses and searching their corpses…

After all, he had been doing the same thing this entire time.

However, his and Lan Xiaoni’s roles were reversed this time around.

Lan Xiaoni had emerged as the final victor, and all An Lin could do was to stand behind the barrier and stare!

There was a look of despair on An Lin’s face. Is this fate?

After a series of twists and turns, he still missed out on the opportunity to obtain this treasure. It felt as though his dream of refining a divine tool was drifting further and further away from his grasp…

Lan Xiaoni found a blue, teardrop-shaped treasure.

This treasure radiated with a soft glow, and it didn’t look like an extremely valuable treasure. However, Lan Xiaoni could sense a hint of boundless sea power within it.

Lan Xiaoni smiled triumphantly and tightly gripped the blue, teardrop-shaped treasure in her hand. Then, she went out of the barrier.

“I’ve won.”

Lan Xiaoni looked at An Lin smugly as she waved the blue, tear-shaped treasure in her hand.

An Lin shook his head and sighed. “Perhaps this is fate…”

It felt as if this realm was fated to gift Lan Xiaoni this treasure. Everything had fallen in her favor. What could An Lin say?

At this moment, a refreshing fragrance blew over.

An Lin looked up and saw that a pair of slender hands had appeared before him. A blue, tear-shaped treasure rested on this pair of hands, and it was radiating with a soft and alluring glow.

He looked toward the female before him with a startled expression.

An assured smile appeared on Lan Xiaoni’s pale face. “I, Lan Xiaoni, understand the need to show gratitude!” she said proudly. “Here, take this tear. It’s my repayment for you saving me!”

An Lin was completely dumbfounded.

Lan Xiaoni was actually gifting him a divine-rank material?!

This had happened too suddenly, and An Lin was unable to wrap his mind around it.

Lan Xiaoni’s foolishly happy appearance when she obtained the treasure was still clear in An Lin’s mind.

To her, the importance of an ancestor’s treasure was self-evident.

In fact, it was extremely likely that this would be the only treasure that she could obtain on this trip.

However, she was actually willing to give him this treasure that she had gone through so many struggles to obtain?

“Oi, what’s with your dumb look? If you don’t want it, then I’ll keep it.”

Lan Xiaoni’s crisp voice sounded again.

“Yes! I do want it!” An Lin felt extremely flattered as he accepted the treasure. “Thank you, you’re so well-behaved!”

Lan Xiaoni: “…

“Is that meant to be a compliment?”

An Lin came to his senses and corrected, “You’re the most prodigious and impressive mermaid that I’ve ever seen!”

Lan Xiaoni smiled smugly. “Naturally!”

So easy to please… An Lin thought in his mind.

After the treasure was obtained, the feeling of heaven and earth shifting appeared again.

As the space warped, the two of them appeared before the Xi Haizi statue again.

“Congratulations on passing the Blue Light Orb Trial, fated persons. I hope that you can use the treasure to strengthen your tribe!”

An Lin patted his chest in satisfaction. “Rest assured, Senior. I’ll definitely strengthen my tribe!”

This scene had already played out numerous times. It was a loop that made one feel a sense of despair.

Lan Xiaoni felt a bit crushed. Her face became even paler, and she was absolutely exhausted from using her mystic technique. She had no choice but to swallow a Blood Spirit Pill.

At that moment, a hand appeared before her. There was a red fruit in this hand, and it radiated with an extremely powerful life force. It was clear that this fruit was especially valuable.

“This is the Netherblood Fruit, a third-rank immortal fruit. It’s my last one. Here, eat it.” An Lin smiled warmly as he offered Lan Xiaoni an immortal fruit.

“W-why?” Lan Xiaoni stammered in disbelief as she gazed at the bright red immortal fruit.

“You’re my scout underling! If you don’t recover, then how are you going to battle later? Here, eat it. No need to be modest. Your big boss isn’t short of money!”

Lan Xiaoni’s hands trembled as she picked up the Netherblood Fruit. Then, she started chewing on it slowly.

Tears trickled down her cheeks as she ate.

This was the touching feeling of being treated well after making a sacrifice.

An Lin smiled faintly as he looked at Lan Xiaoni’s expression.

Yoshi[1]! Underling recruitment plan successful!

If he came across any more troubling scenarios like the one just now, then this foolish mermaid could most likely be manipulated somewhat, right?

That’s right, it was vital for a boss to improve their relationship with their underlings!

Underling Lan’s heart had clearly been bought by his Netherblood Fruit already!

An Lin took out the teardrop and activated his Divine Inspection Technique.

[Drop of emotional tears: The last drop of tear High Priest Xi Haizi shed due to love. Divine-rank material.]

An Lin: “…”

What the hell?!
