I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot - Chapter 389

Chapter 389 Maybe You Misunderstood Performances

Big Lord Demon backed up. He did not look happy at all. He alarmingly shook his head and said, “No way! This spear is the basis of the Demons. We won’t lend it to others!”

The lady in red smiled and said, “Those were the words of Lord Demon. Lord Demon’s dead now, so you get to decide who borrows it. Moreover… Borrowing us the spear is beneficial for both of us.”

Big Lord Demon sounded determined, “I get to decide, and I still decide not to lend it to you!”

He furrowed his brow. He had to sigh because he could not make up his mind.

That was a moment that showed the importance of good leadership. Back then, no matter what the Asura kind had to say, Lord Demon would confidently reject them. Even if Lord Demon supreme-ruler was in deep slumber, Lord Demon would never allow the Asura kind to become powerful. However…things had changed. More importantly, Lord Demon passed away too suddenly. He did not even leave his will. It was a troubling situation for Big Lord Demon. “Big Lord Demon, the situation now is detrimental for you Demons!”

The lady in red chuckled. She said, “Demons are supposed to rise when Buuhism falls. You finally waited till the day came but now, you have all these unnecessary changes. All these failures, even your Lord Demon died for no reason. What else can you do next?”

The simple question left Big Lord Demon stumped.

The lady in red noticed that Big Lord Demon did not respond. She continued, “So… How about you borrow the supreme-ruler Killing Spear to us Asuras. Help us remove the seal of our Master. We can change things around. It’ll be good for both of us.”

Big Lord Demon hesitated. “What’s in it for the Demons if we free your Master?”

“My Master’s acquainted with your Lord Demon supreme-ruler We’ll help you out if you run into trouble. Also…the people that the Demons aren’t able to attack, we’re able to!”

The lady in red paused. Then, she said, “This is the best solution by far. You Demons have Lord Demon supreme-ruler Are you seriously worried that the Asura kind will attack the Demons?”

Big Lord Demon felt conflicted. His mind was running in circles. In the end, he nodded and said, “Okay. You made quite some sense! But I need you to help us attack the Kirins!”

The Demons were weak at the moment. He had a grudge with the Kirins, too. He also had no other choice.

The lady in red naturally agreed. She asked, “Hehe, of course. Where’s the spear?”

“This is an important matter. Follow me.”

The next day. The warm sun peeked its head out from the clouds and chased away the darkness. Light was brought to the realm.

It was early in the morning. Ziye visited Li Nianfan to invite him for the event preparations.

The end-of-the-year event was located at the Eastside. It was a huge space. When Li Nianfan arrived, the venue had been cleared up. The roads were clean and tidy. A lot of familiar faces had gathered there, too. They were rehearsing in an orderly manner.

They all hurriedly greeted Li Nianfan when they saw him.

Cheng Yi passed him a golden piece of paper with tidy words printed on it. “Mr. Li, we followed your suggestion. I’ve listed the performances here.”

Li Nianfan looked at the performance list with curiosity. The others tensed up. They nervously observed his facial expression. They were afraid that the expert would not be impressed by the performances. There were not many performances, just eight in total. However, Li Nianfan knew that there was a ninth performance, the final performance.

“The first performance… Pageant Performance of the Three Sea Beauties.” Li Nianfan looked at Ao Cheng. He smiled and said, “Brother Ao, this is the performance you prepared, right?” “You know us so well, Mr. Li. It is,” Ao Cheng said in response. Then, he said, “I brought the performers. We can show it to you now, Mr. Li.”

He gestured with a wave and twenty figures jogged over. They were all ladies of the sea and they looked extremely beautiful. They were chosen beauties of the sea, too. They looked very anxious because they knew they were being assessed by the bigshot. Ao Cheng said with seriousness, “Put some effort into the performance.”

The twenty sea ladies immediately went into formation and started to dance.

The three species of sea ladies had different styles. However, their bodies were extremely great. Their dances were light and seductive, plus they were wearing very little clothing. It was fantastic to look at. They were truly the three beauties of the sea.

He had to say that the dance formation was a killer performance. If it appeared in his past realm, the performance would have gone viral on the Internet for sure. However… Li Nianfan frowned.

He did not speak. He waited until the dance performance was over. Then, he said, “Brother Ao Cheng, I think this performance of yours is slightly inappropriate.”

Ao Cheng instantly focused. He hurriedly asked, “Mr. Li, are there any dissatisfactions? Or are you displeased with someone among the performers?”

“The performance is good, the performers are beautiful, too. It’s just the setting that’s unsuitable.”

Li Nianfan paused. He said, “Your performance should be focused on showcasing the sea people. It’s not supposed to please the crowd. I think you can change your performance into a Sea People Showcase. You have beauty, but you also need strength.”

The performance was a public show. To put it more straightforwardly, it was vulgar. Li Nianfan felt like Ao Cheng misunderstood what a public performance was. It was eye-catching, but would the people like it?

Ao Cheng immediately promised, “Don’t worry, Mr. Li. I’ll improve it.”

“The second performance, a zither performance. ‘High Mountains and Flowing Water’.

“The third performance, Water and Fire Battle.”

Then, Li Nianfan watched the performances according to the performance list. He gave some suggestions and advice from time to time.

Truthfully, the performances were flawless for the Immortal Realm that lacked entertainment, especially when the crowd was ordinary people. Each performance was fantastic. Unless it was a misdirected performance like Ao Cheng’s, Li Nianfan had nothing much to comment on.

Suddenly, several figures flew in from the Fallen Town’s direction. Black and White Impermanence led the way. They looked flustered.

“Mr. Li, Emperor, Empress.”

Black and White Impermanence said straightforwardly, “Why didn’t you guys tell us about the big end-of-the-year event? If we weren’t informed by the Fallen Town’s City supreme-ruler Temple, we would’ve missed this.”

White Impermanence moved aside. He introduced, “Mr. Li, look at the ghosts behind me, what do you think? They can all sing and dance. We found out about the event and instantly picked them. Count us in on that performance list.”

Li Nianfan looked at the pale-faced ghosts. He smiled awkwardly and said, “Brother White, ghosts and Humans don’t go well together. This…is unsuitable. It really can’t be helped.”

The audience would be full of ordinary people. The ghosts were willing to perform for the ordinary people, but would the ordinary people dare to watch?

The thought of it was chilling.

“Mr. Li, don’t reject us so quickly. The ghosts of the Underworld are very talented.” Black Impermanence hurriedly tried to fix it. He pushed out a ghost and said, “Perform a beheading for Mr. Li.”

The ghost immediately plucked his head off without a second word.

Li Nianfan was a knowledgeable man but he was frightened by that unexpected action.

Black Impermanence continued, “And this too, perform a tongue trick.”

Another ghost stepped out and opened her mouth. A bloody tongue fell out and rolled to the floor. Black Impermanence was proud of it. “How is it? These performances are fresh, right? It’ll entertain the people for sure.”

Li Nianfan shut his eyes. He did not dare to look.

“This is a performance event, not a horror movie theatre.’

The Jade Emperor noticed that Li Nianfan did not look well. He hurriedly gestured, “Drag them away, hurry up and drag them away! What is this?”

Black Impermanence still said, “If it’s not acceptable, we can improve it. Please, give us a chance.”

Li Nianfan said, “No more chances. I think you guys have misunderstood what a performance is more than Brother Ao Cheng did. It’s not suitable, it’s really not. This isn’t for you.”

He was worried that if he allowed the Underworld to participate, a bunch of audiences would pass away with terror.

Black and White Impermanence looked down. They sighed and felt like they could not help the expert. ‘Perhaps we ghosts just don’t have performing talents in us?’

Suddenly, Li Nianfan thought of something. He said, “Emperor, Empress, I suddenly thought of something. Even if the end-of-the-year event is grand, it would only attract the nearby Humans to come watch it, right?”

The Jade Emperor was helpless about that. “Indeed so.”

Li Nianfan asked, “Then, can we use spells to set up a television in each area so that other people from other cities could watch it?”

“Television?” The Jade Emperor and Empress did not understand.

Li Nianfan explained, “Our performances here could be projected to other areas at the same time.”

The Jade Emperor and Empress jumped. They instantly understood it. They immediately had new ideas, followed by a joyful feeling. “We can! We can do that with our powers!” The Jade Emperor immediately smiled. Then, he laughed and exclaimed, “In that case, we could save time and effort. We can get a lot of people to believe in the Heavenly Palace in a short amount of time! Nice, this is too nice! My powers are capable of doing so, why didn’t I think of it?”

They could achieve their desired effect in one night when it originally needed hundreds of years.

The original ten thousand audiences could instantly become millions of audiences.

The Empress was also excited. She hurriedly thanked the expert, “Mr. Li, your idea’s too important for the Heavenly Palace. Thank

you.”

“You’re welcome, Empress. It was just a thought.”

Li Nianfan smiled and said, “I only thought of it because I saw Black and White Impermanence. A lot of places have City supreme-ruler Temples now. The effect of projecting the event through City supreme-ruler Temples must be fantastic. However, I’m afraid we’ll have to trouble the Underworld.”

Black and White Impermanence instantly turned their frowns upside down. They said, “No trouble at all. Don’t worry, Mr. Li. We got this.”
