The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife-Chapter 850: Nanli, Why Keep It All to Yourself!

In less than two tea breaks, all the mythical beasts had left the coastal land and disappeared into the East Ocean.

As they watched the rising sun, everyone’s nerves finally relaxed, and they dropped their weapons and treasures, sitting down to rest in peace.

However—

They still remembered what the immortal had called Nanli earlier.

Yuan Zhenhai stared at Nanli in a daze. "You know that immortal, you... are you truly Divine Venerable?"

Nanli didn’t remember which immortal it was.

She helplessly replied, "Have you ever seen a Divine Venerable with only Nascent Soul cultivation? He must have mistaken me for someone else."

"No! You are!" Yuan Zhenhai suddenly became resolute. "Your abilities are beyond question!"

"Ha-ha, this little guy really has good eyesight," Qiu Hai said happily.

Praising the Ancestor was the same as praising him.

Nanli shot Qiu Hai a glare. "What are you fussing about? It’s none of your business. Go back to work!"

Qiu Hai immediately became dejected. "Ancient Ancestor, when you need me, call me Little Qiu Hai. When you don’t need me, you tell me to go back to work. You can’t do this to me..."

His coquettish demeanor was incredibly enchanting.

It made many female cultivators present blush.

Nanli, worried he might cause some romantic entanglements, urged, "Stop stalling, go back already." freёwebnoѵel.com

Her tone softened considerably.

Qiu Hai, now satisfied, grinned. "Got it, Ancient Ancestor. If you need anything, call me anytime, I’ll be on standby for you."

The Nether Sect vanished as soon as the gate closed.

It was Qiao Dabao, who had read extensively, that quickly deduced Nanli’s identity.

"This must be the Nether Sect. People from the Nether World take your orders. Could it be... you are Death God Divine Venerable?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Yuan Zhenhai, Lin Yifan, and the others were struck with shock.

They gaped, unable to speak.

No wonder that mythical rhino had said Nanli had beaten it senseless in a previous life!

Nanli’s expression remained unchanged, neither proud nor looking down on anyone. She said instead, "My past life identity is of no consequence. There’s no need for any of you to treat me differently. As of now, I am just a cultivator and must re-cultivate to return to my divine position."

So that’s what happened.

If not for this, how would they have had the opportunity to forge a connection with Nanli and fight by her side?

Even though Nanli had reincarnated, the fact that she could breakthrough to Nascent Soul so quickly showed that she was still extremely capable.

Yuan Zhenhai’s gaze grew heated, filled with deep admiration, his words respectful. "Although you are currently in a low state, I believe you will soon regain your Divine Venerable strength!"

"Let’s hope so," Nanli chuckled softly. "No need to keep calling me ’you.’ Just call me by my name, like before."

As for her past, the fewer people who knew, the better.

Qiao Dabao noticed this and tactfully changed the subject, pointing to the weapons and treasures on the ground. "What should be done with these items?"

Upon closer inspection, there were indeed some divine artifacts among them.

Though everyone was still shocked by Nanli’s identity, their eyes were now fixed on the treasures, which were directly related to their interests. They couldn’t help but salivate.

As cultivators, who wouldn’t want powerful weapons and treasures by their side?

However, Lin Yifan, with his hands clasped, said calmly, "Don’t look. These were all gifts from the mythical beasts to Nanli."

No matter how much they stared, it wouldn’t change the fact that they were hers.

Yuan Zhenhai looked sorrowful. "Lord Lin is right, but I would like to retrieve Elder Chen’s sword. Nanli, is that alright?"

Nanli nodded. "Grieve no more. Go ahead and take it, and also pack the other items."

Yuan Zhenhai agreed immediately.

Before he left, a female cultivator gathered the courage to speak. "Nanli, you already have so many powerful treasures, why keep them all to yourself? Why not share them with us? If we had these, we’d be able to strengthen ourselves and better fight against Jialan Celestial Mountain and Penglai Island, right?"

As soon as she spoke, many others chimed in.

"Even Lord Lin doesn’t dare take them, where do you get the courage to claim these treasures?" Nanli smiled lightly, with a hint of mockery.

The female cultivator was taken aback and blushed slightly. "But... we’re not asking for divine artifacts! And not even things from Penglai Island!"

Nanli replied, "Anything valuable will attract covetous eyes. You’re just in the Foundation Building stage—do you really think you can protect these powerful treasures?"

"I..." The female cultivator immediately fell silent.

But then a cultivator spoke up. "I’m in the Golden Core stage. Surely, that’s enough!"

Nanli waved her sleeve and swept the cultivator aside. The man was sent flying several meters with a horrified expression.

At Nanli’s current strength, that one strike could have shattered his heart, but she had held back.

"Golden Core? Against a Nascent Soul, you stand no chance," Nanli said. "And none of you in these towns has a Nascent Soul cultivator. When you die, no one will avenge you."

The cultivator gritted his teeth. "How do you know we won’t produce a Nascent Soul?"

Nanli didn’t indulge them. She replied, "Well, let’s see when one of you does."

"To be honest, you people from the Lower Realm have average aptitude and resources. Reaching Nascent Soul is no easy feat."

"When your strength is weak, learn to be humble. It’s not that you can’t use these treasures, but they will bring you death!"

"Since you believe in your own strength, it would be better to focus on refining your own weapons and treasures. Only what you forge yourself will truly be loyal to you and be easy to use."

Her words left the others stunned.

Qiao Dabao also added, "Indeed! These treasures have been with their former owners for many years, and have likely formed spirits. Are you sure they won’t harm you at the critical moment?"

That’s why, even though the Nine Heavens Fan was powerful, she dared not, nor did she want to use it. After all, eliminating the aura of the previous owner was no easy task.

Yuan Zhenhai, being insightful, nodded. "That’s true. If you want to use these treasures, you’ll need a skilled blacksmith to completely cleanse the aura of the previous owner before they can be safely used."

But in this end-of-era time, skilled blacksmiths were rare.

This led many to practice swordsmanship, as swords were the easiest to forge.

Nanli gave them a look of approval. "The former owners of these treasures all met tragic ends. Their grudges are deep, making it even harder to erase."

Those of low cultivation simply couldn’t handle them.

In simple terms, it’s not the person using the treasures, but the treasures controlling the person.

Lin Yifan understood. "So you were truly thinking about everyone."

The other cultivators, hearing this, turned pale and dared not covet the treasures anymore.
