It's Raining

The night was cool and still; it was unusual for Tianzhu City to be so cool at the end of June. Unfortunately, it still didn't rain.

Ma Feifei stood on Chang'an Street in front of the Bookstore, looking up at the starry sky.

Jing Xing and Chang Kong stood at the Bookstore entrance, one inside and one outside, both looking at Ma Feifei with puzzled expressions.

On the Azure Dragon Continent, cultivators can shatter mountains and rivers with their palms, break long rivers with their legs, and even soar through the sky, Shrink the Earth to an Inch, but no one has ever been able to Summoning Rain.

This is something that no ordinary person could accomplish alone; it is a natural phenomenon, a celestial event.

What God can do, mortals can never learn.

Only by entering the Immortal Realm can one have even the slightest chance and possibility to contend and fight against the heavens.

Only then can one summon wind and thunder with a wave of the hand, and disperse clouds and rain with a flick of the sleeve.

But now Ma Feifei is telling him that he must use his mortal power to change the celestial phenomena and make it rain in the Great Qin!

If it weren't for the young man's unfathomable background and his earnest demeanor, Jing Xing might have left on the spot.

"Senior, aren't you going to stop him?" Jing Xing asked Chang Kong, who was standing inside the shop entrance.

Whether he left or not, whether he believed or not, is another matter; Jing Xing himself is a Profound Heavenly Master who specializes in studying astrology and the five elements; he has also set up altars and arrays to pray for rain, and no one knows better than him whether it works.

Even a Jing Xing could have guessed the outcome of the young man's Rain Dance. To avoid future embarrassment, it would be better to stop this farce sooner or later, thus saving face for the young man who saved him.

But the senior shook his head, holding a crystal-clear lamp with an expectant look on his face, and said, "Why stop it? Since the teacher said he would make it rain in Great Qin, then it will definitely rain."

Although Chang Kong had never seen Ma Feifei make a move, as the owner of the Mysterious Bookstore and with a Saint of unfathomable strength as his bodyguard, it was impossible for him to be without some ability.

Not to mention that the Mysterious Bookstore now even has amazing gadgets. The fact that such a small Bookstore can possess such incredible strength and resources is enough to prove Ma Feifei's capabilities.

But Jing Xing didn't know that. Seeing the expectant look on the senior's face, he couldn't quite process what was going on.

The young man has gone mad, and you're going mad with him?

"Phew~"

Suddenly, a cool breeze swept over him, startling Jing Xing, who was standing outside. He turned to look at Ma Feifei.

At this moment, Ma Feifei stood in the middle of the long street, his eyes slightly closed, his hands naturally extended vertically with palms facing up. The book "Book of Great Peace" was held in his hands, slightly floating in the air, and the whole book exuded a profound aura.

'Whoosh~'

The floating "Book of Great Peace" transformed into a stream of light and shot into Ma Feifei's body.

'Ding~ Host has successfully obtained all the benefits from the Epic-grade- quality book "The Book of Great Peace" by using the "Book Spirit Protects Master" skill.'

'Ding~ Book Spirit Protects Master activated. (Note: Using different benefits from the book will consume Spirit Crystal.)'

As the system notification sounded, a large amount of information about the benefits of the "Book of Great Peace" appeared in Ma Feifei's mind.

"Whoosh~"

Ma Feifei opened his eyes, leaped upwards, and soared into the sky.

"Da da da~"

Chang Kong and Jing Xing quickly ran out of the Bookstore, looking up to search for Ma Feifei.

"There!" Jing Xing pointed upwards, saying with a hint of excitement.

Chang Kong extinguished the Lotus Lantern and looked in the direction Jing Xing pointed. There he saw a man in a purple robe standing in the sky, his expression solemn and his eyes like stars. His robe rustled in the wind, and his hair, which was tied up with a hairpin, was now fluttering in the wind. He was surrounded by fluorescent light.

Ma Feifei looked up at the sky and said in a deep voice, "The wind is coming!"

"Call!"

A sudden gust of wind arose, sending sand and stones flying.

'Lightning strike!'

'Click~'

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck out of nowhere.

Then the temperature between heaven and earth began to gradually decrease.

Jing Xing stretched out his hands, feeling the powerful wind, his eyes filled with horror.

"Rain is coming!"

'Boom!'

As Ma Feifei gave his final command, a muffled thunderclap shook the sky, and everyone throughout the Great Qin Empire felt a strange tremor.

Immediately afterwards...

'Da~'

'Da, da, ~'

'Splash~'

A torrential downpour swept across the entire Qin State...

'Crunch~'

A door on the long street was bolted open, and a burly man emerged. He was initially startled by the torrential rain, but his face lit up with joy. He rushed out, raised his hands, looked up, and excitedly shouted, "It's raining! It's raining!"

'Squeak~'

'Squeak~'

More and more doors opened, accompanied by cries of "It's raining, it's raining..."; for the first time, Chang'an Street was packed with people at night.

Starting from Chang'an Street, the crowd began to spread outwards, and the high-ranking officials and nobles of Tianzhu City, the Lower Three Cities, the Middle Three Cities, and even the Upper Three Cities were all awakened by the heavy rain and ran out to see what was happening.

It's raining in Qin State!

Jing Xing stood in the rain, letting the heavy raindrops fall on him, staring blankly at everything in disbelief.

It turns out that there really are people in this world who possess the ability to Summoning Rain.

"How was it? Pretty cool, right?" Ma Feifei descended from the sky, surrounded by a shimmering white light that shielded him from the raindrops. He walked towards Jing Xing and said with a slight smile.

"How... how did you do that?" Jing Xing's voice trembled slightly as he stared at Ma Feifei in shock.

Ma Feifei's move completely overturned his understanding of celestial phenomena.

Upon hearing this, Ma Feifei raised his hand, patted the "Book of Great Peace" in his hand, and said, "There's a secret technique you can learn from this book. If you understand this book, you can do it too."

Unlike before, this time Jing Xing didn't disbelieve the words; he simply turned his gaze to the black-covered book in Ma Feifei's hand.

"The Book of Great Peace..."

Seeing Jing Xing's expression, Ma Feifei knew that they probably had customers tonight. She smiled at him and strode into the Bookstore.

Seeing this, Chang Kong quickly stepped forward and entered the Bookstore to light the Lotus Lantern.

Jing Xing watched the two figures disappear into the Bookstore, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately decided to follow them inside.

However, this time he didn't receive the same treatment as before. Ma Feifei was dozing off on the counter, Chang Kong stood to the side, his expression solemn, staring at Jing Xing as he entered.

"Ahem~" Jing Xing coughed awkwardly, walked to Ma Feifei's side, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Little... shopkeeper, that book..."

"Want to see?" Ma Feifei opened one eye and looked at Jing Xing.

Jing Xing nodded, a spatial bag materializing in his hand, which he placed on the cashier's counter. He said, "Shopkeeper, here are 1.5 million Spirit Crystal. I only wish to view the * Book of Great Peace *."

Ma Feifei had previously said one million, but Jing Xing gave him one and a half million. Obviously, the extra five hundred thousand was for an apology; after all, Jing Xing had just thought Ma Feifei was a liar, but now that Ma Feifei had successfully proven himself, and Jing Xing still wanted to read the book, he naturally had to show his appreciation.

Ma Feifei was very happy that Jing Xing was so cooperative. In just a short while, he had earned an extra 500,000. He had just used the 'Book Spirit Protects Master' technique, which consumed 20,000 Spirit Crystal. In total, Ma Feifei earned 480,000.

It's worth it.
