I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

of Mountains and Rivers Painting is too eldritch.
Even if it still exists, how could it possibly end up in your hands?’

However, they watched Cheng Yi open the painting scroll slowly.
They were bewildered at the same time.
Their facial expressions and their gazes froze in place.

“Let me see, let me see!”

They rushed to take the painting scroll.
They did not dare to caress the painting as they inspected it without blinking.

They felt the pulse of the painting scroll and that overflowing mysterious aura.
The Jade Emperor and the Empress felt their hearts race.
The Empress said with a shivering voice, “The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting! It’s The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting!”

They were stuck at the same place every day.
They looked at the same view for years.
It would be a lie to say they did not wish to leave.

The appearance of The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting was way too valuable to them.
It was their ticket for survival!

The Empress looked at Cheng Yi with disbelief.
She asked in shock, “Cheng, honestly, where…did you get this painting?”

Cheng Yi smiled and replied, “I got it from the expert.”

“No wonder… The expert gave it to you,” nodded the Jade Emperor.
Then, he asked in disbelief, “He was willing to give this treasure to you?”

Cheng Yi pursed her lips.
She said weakly, “Actually… The painting’s just a normal painting in the eyes of the expert, and it was already damaged.
It lost its power.
The expert retouched it by painting on it and fixed the painting.”

“What?!”

The Jade Emperor and the Empress almost jumped.
They had their jaws on the floor as they gasped.

“This is just a normal painting to the expert?”

“The expert painted on The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting?”

They stood in place.
They were baffled.

They felt like their minds were buzzing and they had entered a whole new world.

‘So… He can do that.’

“An expert, an ultimate expert!” The Jade Emperor widened his eyes in extreme shock.
He was surprised, respectful, and nervous all at the same time.
He said in a trembling voice, “I can confirm it.
He can do such an incredible task, he must be someone on the same level as Pangu!”

The Empress asked, “Did you give the Flat Peach seed and the Yellow Plum seed to the expert?”

Cheng Yi nodded.
“I did.
I heard from Seventh Sister that the expert seems to be pleased.”

The Empress instantly smiled.
“Great, the expert must have felt our sincerity so he was willing to give us The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting.
He’s helping us to escape.”

“It must be.
It most probably is.”

The Jade Emperor nodded in agreement and said with sentimentality, “The expert played around in the realm for joy.
He was willing to help us all because he was in a good mood.
It’s greatly beneficial to us! You have to know, I was just a kid sitting next to the Buddha back then.
To put it nicely, the pawns close to the expert are more valuable than me, the Jade Emperor!”

The Jade Emperor and the Empress looked at each other.
They looked excited and anxious.
They knew how great it was to be close to the bigshot.
They could not calm down.

‘That’s the bigshot who surpassed the Buddha, and as powerful as Lord Pangu!’

“You and Zi did a nice job for befriending such a bigshot.
Nicely done!”

The Empress took a deep breath.
Then, she said with seriousness, “What else did the expert tell you? Tell us everything in detail so we can provide better services for the expert!”

Cheng Yi immediately started the story.
“So, the expert suddenly wanted to visit today, so he followed Seventh Sister to the Heavenly Palace…”

The Jade Emperor and the Empress had their ears up.
They listened attentively.
They did not dare to miss a word.

When they heard about the automatic reboot of the Heavenly Palace to welcome the expert, they were not surprised.
They nodded.
‘Seems like the Heavenly Palace isn’t stupid, quite observant.’

However, when they heard about how the expert complimented the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor suddenly frowned.
He sighed and said, “Cheng, you didn’t handle this properly.”

Cheng Yi jolted.
“What is it?”

The Jade Emperor said, “The expert likes to travel around the three realms, so you have to give the expert a palace.
You also should’ve given him the most majestic one with the best location.
You failed to give it to him… Sigh.”

Cheng Yi said with regret, “I wanted to but I was rejected by the expert.”

“You still didn’t understand what the expert meant by that!”

The Jade Emperor shook his head.
Then, he said, “How did the expert reject you? He said he wasn’t worthy.
That meant he wasn’t an Immortal yet.
Was the hint not obvious enough? We have to give him a title before we can give him a palace!”

The Empress was intrigued.
“Do you mean we have to give the expert a job?”

“Careful of your words, careful of your words! What were you thinking? How can I be the Jade Emperor if the expert works here? Are you trying to kill me?!”

The Jade Emperor went pale in an instant.
He hurriedly said, “We can’t give him a job.
Since the expert’s a Deluxe Merit Saint, we can give him the official title of the Deluxe Merit Saint.
Once we give him a respectable title, we could’ve given him a worthy palace, right?”
