I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

Chapter 1391: Graduation Ceremony

An Lin was ecstatic. A present from Nuwa must be extremely valuable!

“You have my utmost gratitude, Your Majesty Nuwa!” An Lin immediately saluted.

“Thank you, Your Majesty Nuwa.” Yi Xi was also quite elated.

“Here, this Myriad Soul Holy Herb is yours. You can use it to refine pills.” Nuwa passed a divine-rank herb to Yi Xi.

Yi Xi’s smile was so wide when he accepted the herb that his eyes were almost completely hidden by his rolls of fat.

“An Lin, this heavenly stone is imbued with my power of chaos and can be used to defend against a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure’s attacks, or be tossed like a stone to inflict lethal damage upon an opponent. It can be used a total of ten times, so it’s quite a good life-saving treasure.” Nuwa tossed an extremely mundane-looking, irregular, grey stone to An Lin.

If this weren’t a present from Nuwa, An Lin would most likely think this was just a random stone picked up from the streets.

However, An Lin could sense that there were extremely fearsome energy fluctuations imbued within the stone.

“Thank you, Your Majesty Nuwa.” An Lin accepted the heavenly stone excitedly.

This was the first time he had received a present from a God of Creation, and he didn’t know how powerful it was. He would just have to find some unlucky fool to test out its power in the future.

“Little Black, pour another cup of tea for An Lin,” Nuwa instructed with a warm smile.

Black Spirit Snake continued to pour tea for An Lin with a thunderous expression.

Never in An Lin’s wildest dreams did he think that Black Spirit Snake would be obediently pouring tea for him like what she was doing now. What a satisfying feeling!

After that, they discussed some other topics.

Nuwa extended another invitation for An Lin to join the Heaven Mending Sect, which An Lin turned down euphemistically.

It was quite funny when he thought about it. The two most important figures from the Heaven Crushing Sect had invited him, and the two most important figures within the Heaven Mending Sect had also invited him. It looked like he was quite a prized commodity.

After about half a day, Nuwa escorted An Lin out of her cabin of life.

An Lin walked through a spatial gate to discover that he had arrived at a picturesque floating continent. This was a very familiar place. It was the very same schoolyard where he had spent the best part of five years.

“Mr. An Lin, enjoy your graduation ceremony.” Nuwa waved from the other side of the spatial gate with her ever-present warm smile.

Whoosh!

The spatial gate disappeared.

The Goddess of Creation vanished along with it.

“Graduation ceremony?” An Lin faltered upon hearing this.

At this moment, the sound of fireworks and students cheering erupted in the distance.

“Holy f*ck! I’m graduating?!” An Lin was given a huge fright.

Only then did he realize that he had been in the Divine Source Continent for over three months. The time had absolutely flown by!

An Lin was a little disconsolate.

He hadn’t even prepared himself yet, but he was graduating just like that.

He always thought graduation was something far away, but now, it suddenly struck him out of nowhere...

On the White Stone Plaza of The United University of Cultivation.

Close to ten thousand fifth-year graduates were gathered here.

All of them were wearing white daoist robes with red edges. These were their graduation robes. All of the men looked handsome and dashing in those robes while the women looked energetic and adorable, creating a marvelous spectacle to behold.

Principal Wang Xianyu was blowing bubbles on stage to deliver his speech.

All of the students looked on with rapt attention.

This was their final day at the university.

From tomorrow onward, they would be the alumni of The United University of Cultivation.

However, none of the students were particularly excited as they felt like something was missing.

“Sigh... I just wanted to see War God An Lin one last time before I graduate. Why can’t a wish even as simple as this come true?” a female student said with disappointment on her face.

“Student An Lin is a man destined for great things, so it’s understandable that he’s currently away from school,” a male student also said with a hint of disappointment on his face.

That’s right! All of them couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed as the legendary figure of the school did not appear at the graduation ceremony to spend his last day in this school together with everyone else.

“That’s alright. If we miss him, we can just go to the Heavenly Court or the Four Nine Immortal Sect to see him!” Some of the students were more optimistic.

At this moment, all of the students in the first class were gathered together.

“Don’t worry, Classmate Xiaolan. Maybe An Lin will be back soon.” Su Qianyun wasn’t very good at consoling others, but she still tried her best and patted the shoulder of the woman beside her.

“Hmph! Worry? I’m not worried! I’m just angry! I’m furious! He didn’t even tell me what he was doing before he ran off! I’m so going to make him kneel on the Lava Jackfruit!”

Xu Xiaolan wore an angry expression on her face, but she did look up at the sky as she spoke, as if she really was hoping that An Lin would suddenly appear.

“That’s right, our Classmate Xiaolan certainly isn’t worried about An Lin.” Xuanyuan Cheng wore a teasing smile on his handsome face as he said, “It’s not like she went around and asked all of the five emperors and almost the entire Heavenly Court about where An Lin was after he disappeared. And even if she had done that, it was all because she wanted to find An Lin and bash him to blow off some steam.”

Xu Xiaolan: “...”

“Next, we’ll be inviting our exceptional student representative of The United University of Cultivation to deliver her address!” Vice-Principal Yu Hua announced.

All of the students burst into thunderous applause.

Even some of the slightly dejected students had their moods lifted.

Xu Xiaolan made her way up the stage.

She wore the same daoist robe as everyone else without any embellishments nor adjustments, but she somehow still pulled it off slightly better than everyone else.

Xu Xiaolan’s entrance was not grand by any means, but it still stunned countless students and teachers into silence.

After fusing together her True Dragon and Vermilion Bird bloodlines to perfection, her disposition and looks had become even more holy and regal, making her appear as if she were a high and mighty holy maiden.

Only those closest to her knew that Xu Xiaolan actually hadn’t changed at all. She was still gentle when she needed to be, but also explosively violent when the situation demanded it. She was still the adorable Celestial Maiden she one was.

Xu Xiaolan looked up at the sky again before grumbling in a low voice, “Jeez, I have to do something like this because of your absence... All I wanted was to become an ordinary chef.”

An Lin was not here, so she was the most exceptional student, and thus, she naturally took An Lin’s place to deliver an address as the student representative.

“Greetings, esteemed teachers and fellow students! I am Xu Xiaolan from the first class... The path to cultivation has always been said to be a long and arduous one and that the period of five years is but a drop of water in the ocean. However, these five years are filled with memories that I will treasure for the rest of my life. There were peaceful yet glorious days where I cultivated and learned, but also many unforgettable battles...”

Xu Xiaolan was just delivering her address when she suddenly looked up into the sky, and an extremely vibrant smile appeared on her face, as if all of her worries had just been wiped away in an instant, leaving only unadulterated joy in its place.

Her eyes had narrowed into crescents shapes as she exclaimed joyfully, “You’re back!”
