Chapter 251: You Want This Cat to Be the Alliance Leader? Are You Out of Your Minds?
“Mimi, are you alright?”
When Li Li came back to her senses, she saw Liu Yun’s hand waving in front of her, her eyes filled with concern.
“I’m fine, what’s wrong?” Li Li asked, puzzled.
“Nothing, Sis just saw you suddenly spacing out while eating. I thought you were choking,” Liu Yun explained, letting out a sigh of relief.
Li Li laughed and replied, “How could that be? This cat won’t choke, Sis, don’t worry. I was spacing out because I was contacting a friend. I did something for him, and he promised to pay me, but he hasn’t yet, so I just asked him about it.”
“Oh, so that’s what happened.” Liu Yun was relieved.
She had thought there was something wrong with the cake they made, but it seemed it wasn’t the case.
“Mm.” Li Li nodded her big head and finished the rest of the cake in a few bites. “Thank you, Sisters, for the treat! I have to go to work now. I’ll see you Sisters tomorrow.”
“Okay, go ahead, Mimi.”
“Mm. Remember to come on time, Mimi.”
Liu Yun and Wu Xiaohui wiped Li Li’s mouth and removed her napkin. Li Li hopped off the balcony and left.
“Xiaoyun, don’t you think Mimi seems to be hiding a lot of things from us?” Wu Xiaohui suddenly said, looking at Li Li’s retreating figure.
“There are some, but it’s normal for a child to have some privacy when they grow up, isn’t it?” Liu Yun said with a smile.
“That’s true, after all, she’s not a kitten anymore.” Wu Xiaohui nodded thoughtfully.
“Mm, so let’s not pry too much, Xiaohui-jie.” Liu Yun picked up the cake plate. “I’ll go wash the cake plates. Sis, can you check if we have enough ingredients to make the cake? If not, we’ll have to buy some more later.”
“Okay, I’ll go check.” Wu Xiaohui replied and went to check the ingredients.
Meanwhile, at the Blue Island City Cultivator Organization, they were decorating the interior with flower baskets and ribbons to make it look festive.
“Uh, we’re decorating so festively, anyone who doesn’t know would think we’re welcoming some important leader. Senior Brother, don’t you think the higher-ups have gone crazy?” Lu Jin complained as she blew up balloons. The other party had blackmailed them for cultivation techniques.
They were still holding such a grand welcome ceremony, weren’t they out of their minds?
“Be careful what you say! The decisions made by the higher-ups are not for us to comment on.” Huang Zhongda’s expression changed slightly upon hearing this. He quickly covered Lu Jin’s mouth with his hand. “You are still young and don’t understand anything. You have to be careful when you are out and about, you know? Lest you invite disaster with your words.”
Why was this Junior Sister of his so outspoken? How could she say such things casually?
“Yes, yes, Senior Brother. Can you take your hand away?” Lu Jin, her mouth covered, broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this. But the strange smell on her Senior Brother’s hand was really unbearable.
“Then you have to remember this.” Huang Zhongda withdrew his hand. “After we finish decorating here, you come with me to stand guard outside, okay? Don’t stay here, in case you say something wrong again.”
“I know, Senior Brother. I was just being quick with my words, I’m not really stupid.” Lu Jin muttered. Huang Zhongda looked at her with a helpless expression.
This silly Junior Sister was really silly. Quick with her words? Fortunately, the Alliance Leader and the others were discussing matters inside and had no time to pay attention to them; otherwise, both his Junior Sister and he would be finished.
“Put all the jade slips away. After this Senior comes, everyone do as I instructed beforehand, understand? So as not to offend this Senior.” Looking at the fruits placed on the table and the jade slips packed in the box beside it, the Alliance Leader spoke seriously to the elders.
He had to make sure these guys wouldn’t get carried away and cause any trouble for him.
“Yes, Alliance Leader, rest assured. We will keep the Alliance Leader’s words in mind.” The elders nodded and sat down on their chairs, waiting expectantly.
“Huh? Did this cat come to the wrong place? Or are these guys having some kind of party? Why is it so festive?”
After a while, Li Li arrived at the location and looked at the decorations inside. After confirming repeatedly that she hadn’t come to the wrong place, she couldn’t help but murmur to herself.
She had come to rob them outright, and these guys were welcoming her? If they weren’t crazy, they must have some kind of conspiracy, right?
Li Li was always wary of conspiracies and schemes. After all, she wasn’t good at this kind of thing, and it was always better to be safe than sorry.
Looking at the group of people in the conference room, Li Li began to think about whether she should leave first. After all, as long as she didn’t go in, all conspiracies and schemes would come to nothing.
But as soon as she turned around, Li Li turned back again.
“Meow meow~”
“I almost let these guys fool me. These guys are so weak, none of them are even Rank 3? If I just leave like this, wouldn’t I look like a fool?”
“No matter what conspiracies and schemes, they are all just bubbles in front of absolute strength.” After Li Li came back to her senses, she kicked open the window and walked straight in. She wanted to see what kind of medicine these guys were selling.
“He’s here!”
At the same time, in the conference room, the Alliance Leader and many elders felt a powerful aura pressing down on them.
Then, they lowered their heads, their legs trembling, and said respectfully, “Welcome, Senior! We are truly honored by your presence. It is a pity that we could not greet you in advance, please forgive us, Senior.”
“Oh? You little guys are quite welcoming to me. I thought you would be very angry.” Li Li was amused by this scene and waved her paw.
The people present immediately felt the pressure on them ease, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
At least for now, this Senior was very kind and not so overbearing. And at this moment, a sudden voice made them even more delighted.
“Alright, raise your heads. Don’t keep your heads down. What kind of cultivators are you?”
“Thank you, Senior, thank you, Senior.”
The people were overjoyed and only then dared to raise their heads, using the corners of their eyes to carefully look at this Senior.
They saw this Senior with sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, a handsome face, and dressed in a green robe, like a true immortal descending to the mortal world.
Immediately, their hearts were filled with admiration. This was the kind of bearing they had been pursuing all their lives!
“Alright, you guys gathering here, it shouldn’t be just to see me, right? Just tell me what you want to do. If it’s not too much, I might be able to help you.” Li Li said lightly, looking at their adoring expressions.
For now, it seemed these guys didn’t have any malicious intentions, so she could give them some benefits.
After all, as the saying goes, one doesn’t hit a smiling face. Moreover, these guys were so humble.
“Thank you, Senior, thank you, Senior.”
The cultivators were ecstatic and looked at the Alliance Leader.
After all, he was still the Alliance Leader, wasn’t he? Although the Senior had agreed to answer their questions, he still had to be the first to speak.
“Senior, since you have graced us with your presence, this junior has an impolite request, I hope Senior can agree to it.” The Alliance Leader nodded in satisfaction and then said respectfully to Li Li.
“Tell me first, I’ll tell you after I hear it.” Li Li didn’t rush to refuse and just waved her paw.
These guys shouldn’t have had their heads hit by a rock, right? She wanted to hear what this person’s impolite request was.
“Yes, Senior.” The Alliance Leader nodded and said sincerely, “It’s like this, Senior. This junior feels that his strength is insufficient and cannot shoulder the responsibility of being the Alliance Leader of the Xuan Kingdom Cultivator Alliance, leading fellow cultivators to a better level, so I intend to abdicate and invite Senior to become the Alliance Leader.”
“You want me to be the Alliance Leader?” Li Li scratched her ear in disbelief, making sure she had heard correctly.
“Yes, Senior.” The Alliance Leader said seriously.
“Then the whole country is probably going to be finished, what a joke, make this cat the Alliance Leader? I can only say that humanity really has no future.” Li Li complained inwardly. But she said evasively, “This is a matter of great importance, and I am not someone who likes to meddle in other people’s business, so I cannot accept.”
“You shouldn’t belittle yourself. Since you can become the Alliance Leader, it means that everyone has great confidence in your strength. You should just keep doing it.”
“But this junior still feels that he is unable to shoulder this heavy responsibility. I hope Senior can consider it.” The Alliance Leader said sincerely.
“Alright, stop nagging. Don’t mention this kind of thing again, I won’t agree. Tell me what questions you want to ask.” Li Li waved her paw dismissively, not wanting to continue talking about this matter.
She felt like she didn’t have enough time in a day, and they wanted her to be the Alliance Leader? Weren’t they crazy?
She wouldn’t take on this thankless task even if she was full.
“I would like to ask Senior if there is any shortcut to forming a Gold Core?” The Alliance Leader looked at Li Li expectantly. The other elders also perked up their ears. After all, who didn’t want to become a Gold Core expert?
“Forming a Gold Core?” Li Li was stunned at first. Then she looked at the expectant elders and the Alliance Leader and said, “First of all, you must be able to condense a Pseudo Core Seed. Secondly, your soul cultivation must be profound, otherwise, there’s a high chance of failure when attempting to form a Gold Core.”
She had never attempted to form a Gold Core, but she had read novels. Although she didn’t know how these cultivators were trying to form a Gold Core, it should be roughly the same.
The cultivators, after listening, said with a dumbfounded look, “Uh, Senior, what you said… we all know, but it’s because we know that we understand how difficult it is to form a Gold Core.”
“Yes, that’s why we want to ask Senior for some secret tips.”
This kind of thing, not to mention being widely circulated in the cultivation world, was something they understood as they cultivated to their current realm.
It was precisely because of this that they knew how difficult the process was and wanted to seek shortcuts.
“The secret is to take pills.” Li Li looked at the elders and the Alliance Leader. “If you want to become a Gold Core, in addition to the above conditions, the most reliable way is to take pills.”
“However, given the current state of the world, let’s not talk about whether we can find someone who can refine Rank 3 pills, even gathering the spiritual herbs is difficult. If you really want to become a Gold Core, the best way is to wait until the spiritual energy is more abundant.”
“By then, the limitations of heaven and earth will be relaxed, and it will naturally be easier to become a Gold Core.”
“But we’re afraid we won’t live that long.” The elders said with a worried look.
At this rate, let alone forming a Gold Core, it was a question of whether they could live to see the spiritual energy recover to its ancient levels.
“Then there’s no other way. I’ve already told you the method, and if you can’t achieve it, what can you do?” Li Li shrugged.
She hadn’t held anything back and had said everything she knew. Although she didn’t know how much of it was correct, she had said everything she knew.
“Then, does Senior have any secret methods that can increase the success rate of Core Formation? Even if it only increases it by half a percent, this junior is willing to pay any price.” The Alliance Leader spoke after listening, he didn’t believe that a Senior who could become a Gold Core cultivator wouldn’t have any secret methods to increase the success rate of Core Formation.
“Yes, Senior. We are also willing to give up all our possessions just for a secret method that can increase the success rate of Core Formation.”
The elders echoed.
“Hmm?” Li Li looked at their hopeful eyes and pondered for two seconds. “Wait a moment, it’s been too long since I formed my Gold Core, I’ve almost forgotten if there’s such a thing. Let me look for it.”
As a righteous cat, she certainly wouldn’t covet their possessions. She just didn’t want these Xuan Kingdom cultivators to all die of old age.
After all, the situation in the country was quite unstable right now, and they were needed to stabilize the situation.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately shut up and looked at Li Li expectantly, only to see her take out a small pouch and fumble around inside.
In reality, Li Li wasn’t doing anything. She was directly searching in the System Mall.
After all, there was everything in there, especially all kinds of secret techniques. Anyway, these people weren’t asking for much, just a secret technique that could increase the Core Formation success rate by half a percent. That was a piece of cake, wasn’t it?
“Crimson Core Condensation Method (3,000 System Coins): Cores are divided into nine grades, Crimson Core being the lowest. But it is also the easiest to condense. Although it is difficult to form a Nascent Soul, it can prolong life for hundreds of years.”
“This seems pretty good.” Li Li’s eyes lit up after scanning through it.
It didn’t require many System Coins, and it was the easiest to succeed with.
Although the resulting Gold Core was somewhat lacking, being at the bottom of the barrel, it was still a Gold Core, wasn’t it? And it could also extend one’s lifespan by hundreds of years, maybe there would be a chance to remedy it later.
And most importantly, this thing was a booklet, not a ball of light that disappeared after reading it once.
Of course, she still had to ask these guys if they were willing. If they weren’t, she wouldn’t waste money buying it.
Thinking of this, the cultivator Li Li had conjured stopped fumbling with the storage pouch.
Seeing this, the cultivators and the Alliance Leader became excited instantly, their eyes fixed on Li Li.
“I searched through my ancient belongings and found that the secret technique I used to form my Core is gone.”
“Ah?” Disappointment filled the eyes of all the cultivators. Even the Alliance Leader sighed.
But then, Li Li continued, “But I found something else, a method to form a Crimson Core in one day. This method produces a Crimson Core, which although not as powerful as a Gold Core, is easier to condense and grants a lifespan no different from a Gold Core cultivator after formation.”
“Really?” The cultivators, who were almost in despair, had their eyes light up again.
“Yes, but I must remind you. This Crimson Core is the lowest grade of Core Formation. Although it’s easy to condense, it will be extremely difficult to become a Nascent Soul cultivator in the future, unless you can refine the Crimson Core into a Gold Core.” Li Li emphasized, lest these guys blame her later.
The elders, upon hearing this, weren’t disappointed at all. Instead, they were all overjoyed.
“Senior, what are you saying? We only have a few years left to live. As long as we can form a Core, who cares if it’s a Gold Core or a Crimson Core?”
“That’s right, and Senior, you also said that after forming a Crimson Core, we can still refine it into a Gold Core.”
“Yes, as long as we’re alive, anything is possible. Please, Senior, teach us.”
“Alright, since you all say so, then I will impart it to you.” Li Li nodded and looked at the elders, rubbing her fingers together.
The elders immediately understood and took out their respective magical artifacts from their storage pouches. They placed the pouches respectfully in front of Li Li.
Seeing this, Li Li finally bought the 《Crimson Core Condensation Method》 from the System Mall.
“This is the Crimson Core Condensation Method. All of you look carefully and memorize it. If you’re afraid of forgetting, you can take a picture with your phone or copy it by hand.” Li Li placed the booklet on the table and said, waving her paw to collect all their storage pouches.
“Thank you, Senior.” The elders said excitedly, gathering around the booklet and even taking out their phones, afraid of missing a single word.
After reading it, the elders wiped their tears and said excitedly, “I never thought there would be such a wonderful method in the world! With this method, our Core Formation is hopeful, our longevity is hopeful!”
“Yes, it’s just that it’s a little difficult to refine the Crimson Core into a Gold Core. Otherwise, this method would be perfect.”
“Where in the world is there a perfect solution? As long as we can form a Core, that’s enough. Otherwise, with our aptitude, could we ever see the scenery beyond Core Formation?”
“That’s right, that’s right. With this secret method, after we cultivate to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, we can start preparing for Core Formation.” The elder who had put down the Crimson Core Condensation Method said, then bowed deeply to Li Li. “Thank you, Senior, for bestowing this method, we are eternally grateful.”
“Yes! Senior’s great kindness, we will never forget.” The other elders followed suit and bowed. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
“Don’t mention great kindness, we each got what we needed.” Li Li waved her paw indifferently and put away the jade slips. “Alright, I’ve collected the jade slips, and you’ve all read the secret method. Let’s part ways here.”
“Ah? Senior, you’re leaving now?” The elders were stunned.
“Yes, or should I stay here for dinner? Disperse.” As Li Li spoke, her figure vanished.
The elders watched with wide eyes, their determination to form a Core even stronger.
“Since everyone has obtained the Crimson Core Condensation Method, let’s go back, don’t linger here.”
“Lest we offend this Senior and invite trouble.” The Alliance Leader said to the elders, holding his phone.
Among all the cultivators present, his cultivation was the highest, and he had already condensed a Pseudo Core Seed.
According to the description of the Crimson Core Condensation Method, if a Pseudo Core cultivator condensed a Crimson Core, it would not only be easier to form the Core, but also easier to refine it into a Gold Core.
He couldn’t wait to go back and form his Core. After all, the sooner he formed a Core, the sooner he could refine the Crimson Core into a Gold Core.
“The Alliance Leader is right, we’ll go back now.”
“Yes, yes. Farewell, fellow Daoists. I hope that the next time we meet, we will all have stepped into Core Formation.”
“Likewise, likewise.”
The elders said and left one after another. No one wanted to be left behind by forming their Core later than others.
“What’s wrong with the elders and the Alliance Leader? Why do they look so happy?” The Qi Refining cultivators were puzzled as they watched the elders leave. What was going on with the elders and the Alliance Leader? Why were they so happy?
“Maybe they had a pleasant conversation with that Senior after meeting him.” The bald cultivator thought for a moment and said.
“Uh, is that really the case?” Lu Jin subconsciously felt it was unlikely.
That Senior was a Gold Core ancestor, what could he possibly have a pleasant conversation about with the Alliance Leader and these Foundation Establishment elders?
“Mm, that’s the only explanation.” Huang Zhongda agreed and covered Lu Jin’s mouth with his hand. “Junior Sister, don’t talk nonsense, okay? You’ll get into trouble sooner or later if you keep doing this.”
“Mmm~” Lu Jin, her mouth suddenly covered, wanted to explain something, but Huang Zhongda directly dragged her away.
