Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 412 - 409: The Childish Lin Xuanfei [First Update]
Chapter 412: Chapter 409: The Childish Lin Xuanfei [First Update]
As the instigator of this incident, Li Chen swiftly returned to the preset rendezvous with Lin Xuanfei after randomly issuing a series of combat commands at the headquarters of the 44th Division.
He was concerned that the Indian military would be thoroughly enraged and might destroy the entire area with intercontinental ballistic missiles.
Therefore, without any further delay, he immediately led Lin Xuanfei and the Himalayan Snow Monster out of Indian territory in the shortest time possible. They prepared to return via the southern route within Nepal, crossing over Mount Everest, and making their way back to Huaxia Country.
Above Mount Everest, the snowstorm persisted.
Even though Lin Xuanfei was sitting on the warm shoulders of the Himalayan Snow Monster, she was still shivering with cold.
Li Chen glanced at Lin Xuanfei, who was curled up into a ball, and asked, "Girl, are you cold?"
"No, no, no, not cold!" Lin Xuanfei chattered through clenched teeth, shaking her head stubbornly.
Li Chen laughed helplessly, reached out to pinch Lin Xuanfei’s icy cheeks, and said, "Almost freezing into a dog, and yet you say you’re not cold?"
After speaking, he took out a pill from the Black Stone Ring and handed it over to her.
Lin Xuanfei blinked her large eyes and asked, "What’s this?"
Li Chen shrugged his shoulders and teased casually, "Poison, dare you eat it?"
Lin Xuanfei gave him a white look and said, "Pfft, what’s there to be afraid of? As long as it’s something you give me, even if it’s poison, I’ll eat it!"
While speaking, she popped the pill into her mouth and chewed it noisily.
In a short while, she felt a warmth spreading throughout her body.
Despite being in a world of ice and snow, she felt as warm as spring.
Looking at Li Chen by her side, Lin Xuanfei suddenly felt she was the happiest girl in the world.
"Brother Li Chen, you’re so amazing, you even managed to defeat the army head-on. Just like what’s written in Wang Wei’s ’Old General’s March’: ’A single man embarked on a three-thousand-mile campaign, his single sword once faced a million foes!’"
Lin Xuanfei sparked with admiration, her face full of adoration as she looked at Li Chen.
Li Chen just grinned wryly and said, "Don’t talk nonsense, they were conducting military drills; I was merely joining in the fun!"
Lin Xuanfei giggled and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Right, right, right, they were carrying out military drills."
"By the way, where are we going now?"
Li Chen casually asked back, "Girl, have you ever climbed a mountain?"
Lin Xuanfei nodded vigorously and replied, "I have! I’ve climbed Mount Huang, Tai Mountain, Mount Hua, Jiuhua Mountain, and Emei Mountain. Oh, and I even went skiing in the Alpine two years ago!"
Li Chen pointed at the towering Mount Everest and asked, "Have you ever climbed Mount Everest?"
Lin Xuanfei shook her head like a rattle-drum, "No, Mount Everest is the summit of the Earth, standing at 8,844 meters tall. How could I possibly climb it?"
Li Chen shrugged and said, "Then today, I’ll take you to climb Mount Everest, to see the view from the summit of the Earth. It’s not bad up there!"
After saying this, he looked towards the Himalayan Snow Monster and asked, "Right?"
The Snow Monster nodded vigorously and let out a roar in agreement with Li Chen.
"Damn, can’t you keep it down?" Li Chen’s eardrums buzzed from the Snow Monster’s roar.
Hearing Li Chen’s scolding, the Himalayan Snow Monster hung its head low like a child who had done something wrong.
Seeing this scene, Lin Xuanfei couldn’t help but laugh, covering her mouth with her little hand and giggling non-stop.
Endless beauty on perilous peaks!
As the highest point on this planet, the scenery of Mount Everest is undoubtedly breathtaking.
Thousands of snowflakes whirl in the wind, like dancing butterflies. They also resemble a group of dancers in gauze skirts, twirling lightly and gracefully in the air, accompanied by the heavenly sounds of nature.
Everywhere the eye can see, the world was draped in a coat of glimmering white. The lifeless trees were adorned with fluffy, sparkling icicles, and the rugged, strange rocks were heaped with soft, heavy snowballs. Dressed in powder and jade, everything was uniformly pristine.
As Han Yu’s poetry described it: Who can craft the multitude of snow on flat ground into such heavenly flowers connecting the sky?
"Wow, this is the top of the world, so beautiful!"
Seeing such stunning scenery, Lin Xuanfei excitedly bounced and hopped around on the summit of Mount Everest like a child.
Li Chen noticed that the spiritual power here was very abundant and pure, surpassing the Divine Dragon Pond by tenfold. He decided to set up a small Spirit Gathering Array here to replenish all the True Essence Spiritual Power he had expended these days.
"Hey, Brother Li Chen, what are you doing?"
Lin Xuanfei saw Li Chen laying out jade stones on the ground according to the positions of the Nine Palaces and Eight Diagrams and asked curiously with her sparkling big eyes.
"Cultivating!" Li Chen kept busy with the task at hand and replied without lifting his head.
"Cultivating?"
Hearing these two words, a beautiful ripple shimmered in Lin Xuanfei’s eyes.
"Brother Li Chen, can I also cultivate?"
Hearing Lin Xuanfei’s inquiry, Li Chen glanced at her sideways.
Seeing Li Chen suddenly looking her way, Lin Xuanfei nervously muttered to herself and cautiously asked, "Can’t I cultivate?"
Li Chen shook his head and said, "You can, and what’s more, you have a Pure Yin Physique. Cultivating will be twice as effective for you!"
"Ah, really?"
Hearing that she could indeed cultivate and that it would be especially effective, Lin Xuanfei almost jumped up in excitement.
"So, how should I cultivate? If I start cultivating, will I become as powerful as you?"
Li Chen felt a bit embarrassed and was at a loss for words.
Goodness, she hasn’t even learned how to walk—no, I should say she hasn’t even been born yet—and now she’s thinking about becoming the world champion in long-distance running?
He found a basic cultivation technique called "Wind Snow Scripture" from the Black Stone Ring and casually tossed it to her.
It was originally intended for Zhao Yuqing, but he had been too busy these days and hadn’t had the chance to pass it on to her.
Moreover, Lin Xuanfei, like Zhao Yuqing, had a Pure Yin Physique, which made them both very suitable for cultivating this technique.
Lin Xuanfei took the secret manual and asked with blinking eyes, "Wind Snow Scripture?"
She was so eager that she immediately started flipping through it.
"How am I supposed to cultivate this thing?"
"There are texts and illustrations on it; with your intelligence, it won’t be hard to understand!" Li Chen said.
Having said that, he continued to arrange a mini Spirit Gathering Array around Lin Xuanfei, based on the positions of the Big Dipper.
Concerned that she might wander off while he was cultivating, Li Chen also drew a circle with a three-meter diameter around her.
Lin Xuanfei was curious about everything Li Chen was doing and fluttered her long eyelashes, inquiring with childish curiosity, "Brother Li Chen, why are you drawing a circle? Who are you trying to curse?"
Li Chen couldn’t be bothered with her and simply pointed at the circle, saying, "Just stay inside this circle and don’t go anywhere!"
"But what if I get hungry?" Lin Xuanfei said this while rubbing her little belly.
She hadn’t felt hungry before, but now she genuinely was. Her stomach gurgled like a cuckoo bird.
After pondering for a moment, Li Chen handed over all the vacuum-packed compressed biscuits that Livia had given him.
"This is all I’ve got; make do with it. And if you get thirsty, just eat some snow!"
After speaking, he thought again and handed her a small jade bottle.
"Inside are some Fasting Pills. Eating one can keep you from eating or drinking for three days, and you won’t feel hungry either. If you can’t chew the compressed biscuits, eat this first to hold you over!"
With her face flushed with excitement, Lin Xuanfei nodded vigorously like a chick pecking at grains of rice.
"Mhm, okay, I’ll be sure to behave!"
Li Chen watched Lin Xuanfei’s childlike face and shook his head helplessly.
