I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

An Lin and Lan Xiaoni’s mouths gaped open.

Was this humanoid water creature extending a greeting toward them?

An Lin naturally didn’t dare to refuse its offer for a handshake, and he immediately extended a hand forward to grasp onto the hand being offered to him. He discovered that the creature’s hand was quite soft and smooth, with a hint of coldness, as if he were shaking hands with a piece of jelly.

An Lin didn’t dare to hold on for too long, and he immediately retracted his hand after a show of friendliness.

In any case, this mysterious being didn’t appear to be antagonistic toward them. Furthermore, it had shaken his hand, which was something well outside of his expectations!

These were encouraging signs, but at the same time, An Lin was feeling a little nervous. “Senior, can you take us back to our original world?”

He immediately cut straight to the chase with a respectful expression. Even though he was feeling a bit overawed, he still hadn’t lost sight of what his objective was.

The humanoid water creature didn’t reply. Instead, it turned its head to the side. Even though it didn’t have any eyes, Lan Xiaoni could tell that it was looking at her.

An ethereal voice seemed to sound directly in their souls.

“You don’t belong here, you should…”

An Lin immediately interjected before it had a chance to finish its sentence. “We should go home! Please take us home, Senior!”

The humanoid water creature’s body rippled slightly, and it cocked its head to the side as it fell into silence, seemingly a little disgruntled at having its train of thought interrupted.

An Lin and Lan Xiaoni both heaved long sighs of relief.

What familiar words! If the humanoid water creature had uttered the words “you should disappear”, Lan Xiaoni would have been completely and utterly screwed!

Thankfully, An Lin forced an interjection to disrupt the humanoid water creature’s verbal attack!

Lan Xiaoni turned to look at An Lin with a grateful expression.

She knew that An Lin was taking a great risk by saying this as it could divert the humanoid water creature’s attention to him, thereby potentially placing him in grave danger. However, An Lin still did what he did despite the risks, and he had done so with no hesitation.

An Lin stared at the humanoid water creature with a tense expression, constantly on his guard in case it said something that could wipe them both out.

After a short while, the humanoid water creature turned to An Lin again. “You can’t…”

“That’s right! I can’t stay here! I have to go back to my original world! Can you take us back, Senior?” An Lin interjected again.

The humanoid water creature: “???”

An Lin’s heart rate accelerated through the roof, and he had to constantly be on high alert to prevent the humanoid water creature from saying something that would annihilate them both.

This was the third time he had stipulated that he wanted to return to his original world. Surely it had gotten the gist of things by this point!

He was only hoping that this mysterious being was an amiable mighty figure that could casually punch a hole into space that would lead them back to their original world!

An Lin stared at the humanoid water creature with a beseeching expression.

The humanoid water creature stood rooted to the spot again after being interrupted.

After taking a short moment to recover, it spoke again, “I’m going to now…”

“Yes! You’re going to now get us out of here, right?” An Lin interjected with an excited expression.

The humanoid water creature: “…”

Lan Xiaoni: “…”

Wasn’t Big Boss An Lin going a bit too far here?

Slap!

An Lin’s body was suddenly flattened to the ground!

He felt an extremely terrifying sealing force sweeping toward him, rendering him completely immobilized.

Crap!

An Lin’s heart jolted with fear. The mysterious being was about to strike!

“Big Boss An Lin!” Lan Xiaoni’s expression shifted drastically as she hurriedly stationed herself in front of An Lin and directly faced the humanoid water creature.

An Lin wanted to tell Lan Xiaoni to calm down, only to find that the sealing force had even taken away his ability to speak…

He didn’t even have the power to interject anymore. This was a truly dire situation!

The humanoid water creature finally nodded with satisfaction upon seeing An Lin getting flattened to the ground, before turning to Lan Xiaoni and continuing to speak, “I have to now… fulfill my end of the agreement with those two Juniors…”

It looked at Lan Xiaoni, who stood with a resolute expression in front of An Lin, despite the fact that her features were deathly pale from fear. “You don’t belong here. You must be… the being chosen by fate mentioned by those two Juniors, right?”

“Huh?” Lan Xiaoni’s expression faltered upon hearing this.

An Lin: “!!!”

Hurry up and say yes, you stupid c*nt!

An Lin roared internally at Lan Xiaoni.

Lan Xiaoni’s body shuddered as she came to her senses and instinctively nodded. “That’s right, I am the being chosen by fate!”

The humanoid water creature nodded. “Your aptitude matches the requirements. You are indeed quite a good vessel.”

Wait… Vessel?

A being chosen by fate sounded like some bad*ss concept, but it was just the name for a vessel!?

Lan Xiaoni and An Lin were both astonished as an ominous sense of foreboding welled up in their hearts.

Lan Xiaoni would be kicking herself for what she had said if she had legs. She opened her mouth, and she really wanted to say something like “I was just kidding”, but her instincts told her that she would die even more quickly if she were to say something like that…

The humanoid water creature extended its two index fingers and tapped them together before bringing them apart again.

A ball of mysterious blue matter began to appear between its two forefingers.

It was only the size of a fist, but it seemed to contain a boundless ocean within.

The humanoid water creature waved a hand, and the blue ball of matter instantly merged into Lan Xiaoni’s forehead.

Lan Xiaoni let loose an agonized moan, and her hands clutched her head as her body trembled violently, but her powerful aura was sweeping through the ocean in a radius of over fifty kilometers.

Her aura continued to climb and became more and more powerful.

An Lin was extremely distressed upon seeing this, and he tried to escape this seal with all his might as his body trembled with overexertion.

No… I can’t let anything bad happen to Underling Lan…

Move! Hurry up and move!!!

Boom!

An extremely terrifying power burst into the sky!

An Lin’s eyes widened as he stared at Lan Xiaoni.

Bright blue divine light emanated from Lan Xiaoni’s body, and the light was gentle, yet boundless, as vast and infinite as the ocean, and also as unfathomable as an abyss.

Not only that, but An Lin could feel a completely different type of power coming from her body. This was a type of power that seemed to have transcended beyond this world… It was the power of a god!

Vessel… vessel…

Was she still Lan Xiaoni?

Lan Xiaoni seemed to have detected An Lin’s thoughts.

She turned around, and a vibrant smile appeared on her face as she offered gentle words of consolation.

“Big Boss An Lin, I’m fine…”

An Lin looked at the smiling woman to find that there was now a blue water droplet insignia on her snowy-white forehead, from which paramount divine power exuded.

He felt like this power was a little familiar.

The humanoid water creature nodded with satisfaction as it looked at Lan Xiaoni. “Very good. Everything went very smoothly. It is now time for you to go back and fulfill your duty.”

Lan Xiaoni and An Lin were ecstatic upon hearing this.

Even though this entire process was quite baffling, the mysterious being had finally decided to send them back and this was definitely a cause for celebration!

The humanoid water creature pointed at a certain spot in the ocean. A blue passageway between two worlds suddenly appeared.

It spoke again.

“Go forth, my chosen one! Rule over the West Sea and wipe the human race from the face of the Tai Chu Continent!”
