Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 349 - 347: Little Lizi, attend to my dressing!
Chapter 349: Chapter 347: Little Lizi, attend to my dressing!
"Uh, Anran, let’s talk about this when you grow up!" Li Chen was caught off guard by Anran’s innocent question.
"Oh, then Brother, let’s make a pinky promise!"
Anran stretched out her fair and translucent finger and wiggled it twice in front of Li Chen.
Li Chen had no choice but to extend his pinky and link it with Anran’s.
"Pinky promise, swear not to change for a hundred years!"
The childish voice echoed throughout the room, lingering for a long time.
Li Chen smiled and looked out the window, where the eastern sky was already turning the pale color of a fish’s belly.
"Anran, it’s getting light. You should rest now!"
Anran was initially reluctant to leave but eventually obediently listened.
"By the way, Anran, do not rashly enter the Green Tomb. You can only consume one Yunling Grass per month, don’t be greedy. If anything happens, make sure to inform me promptly, got it?"
Li Chen repeatedly admonished just as Anran was about to step into the painting.
Anran always took Li Chen’s words to heart and followed his instructions without question.
After seeing off Anran, Li Chen sat cross-legged alone, deep in thought about the Green Tomb.
However, he racked his brains and couldn’t figure it out.
He had originally thought that Earth was only in the End of Dharma era for cultivation, never expecting that there once existed a True God.
This is getting more and more interesting; it seems I have really underestimated Earth, this Mother Star.
Just then, Ye Chuxue came out of the room.
At this moment, she was drowsy and disheveled from sleep, her hair scattered over her shoulders, a bit messy.
But the sight of this beauty in her unadorned shyness had its own charm!
"Xue’er, you’re awake!"
Ye Chuxue rubbed her eyes and asked, "How did I fall asleep last night?"
Li Chen shrugged and answered, "Sleep when tired, eat when hungry, hasn’t that always been your way?"
Ye Chuxue gave him a disgruntled look and scolded, "Hey, are you calling me a pig?"
Li Chen hurriedly shook his head like a rattle drum, saying, "No, how could I?"
"Hmph, yes you are, you despise me. I’m going to get ready and ignore you!" Saying so, Ye Chuxue yawned and turned towards the bathroom.
By noon, the Marrow Cleansing Pills were successfully refined.
As soon as the pressure cooker’s lid was lifted, the fragrance of the pills wafted along with the light smoke, refreshing to the soul.
"Wow, it smells so good!" Ye Chuxue, like a little gluttonous cat, danced and reached out to grab a pill.
But as soon as she stretched out her paw, Li Chen caught it.
"You little gluttonous cat, you can’t eat it yet!"
Ye Chuxue pouted and asked, "Then when can I eat it?"
Li Chen thought for a moment and said, "Tonight, but there’s some preparation to do before that!"
Ye Chuxue fluttered her long eyelashes twice with curiosity and asked, "What kind of preparation?"
Li Chen pondered and said leisurely, "You need to take a bath first!"
Ye Chuxue widened her eyes, "A bath?"
Li Chen nodded and said, "Yes, a bath!"
After saying so, he casually added, "A mandarin duck bath!"
Ye Chuxue: "..."
Li Chen found a large round wooden tub and put thirty-seven precious medicinal materials in it such as Jasmine, goji, and Ice Flower.
Mu Tong wasn’t placed on the ground but was suspended in mid-air, surrounded by an iron chain at each of the four cardinal directions, with a giant alcohol lamp directly underneath.
However, it wasn’t alcohol that was burning inside, but Dan Fire, a kind of flame fueled by pills.
Ye Chuxue tilted her head to look at the wooden tub and asked Li Chen, "Why do I feel like I’m about to be a frog in water?"
Li Chen pointed to the Dan Fire below and explained, "This is Dan Fire, it’s used to control water temperature and contain Spiritual Power."
As they were speaking, Li Chen took out a pill and threw it into the flames.
Ye Chuxue recognized the name of the pill and asked, "Isn’t this the Essence Building Pill? It’s worth hundreds of thousands!"
Li Chen nodded and said, "Right, and the spiritual power of this Essence Building Pill can only burn for three minutes!"
"Ah? Only three minutes, and hundreds of thousands are gone?" After hearing what Li Chen said, Ye Chuxue immediately let out an astonished cry.
Li Chen pointed to the big wooden barrel and said, "Yep, it’s costly, spending tens of thousands every minute. Aren’t you going to hurry up and take off your clothes to get in?"
Ye Chuxue looked at the white steam rising from the Mu Tong and felt a little nervous: "Is the water temperature scalding?"
Li Chen stretched his hand into the barrel and stirred two times, saying, "No, it’s constant temperature, always maintaining 60 degrees Celsius!"
Hearing that the water temperature was only 60 degrees Celsius, Ye Chuxue was relieved. She was used to having baths with water at forty or fifty degrees, so sixty degrees was just slightly hotter than usual.
However, when she was about to undress, she suddenly realized a very serious problem.
Li Chen was still here!
"Hey, I need to change and bathe, don’t you want to step out?"
Li Chen looked at Ye Chuxue and countered, "Little Xue’er, tell me, if I step out, who will help you clear the governor and conception vessels and purify your marrow and bones?"
After finishing, seeing Ye Chuxue still hesitating and looking bashful, he acted nonchalant and said, "Why are you still shy in front of me, haven’t I seen every part of your body?"
However, before he could finish his sentence, he saw Ye Chuxue’s eyes widen with anger staring at him, prompting him to quickly cover his mouth.
"What I said was haven’t seen, it was a statement, not a rhetorical question!"
"Hmph, that’s better!"
Ye Chuxue saw that Li Chen had conceded, so she smugly huffed.
Then, she looked at Li Chen and said, "Little Lizi, attend to me while I change my clothes!"
Li Chen saw Ye Chuxue playacting like royalty, so he cooperated very well and responded with a reverent "Yes."
Ye Chuxue’s skin was like fine silk from Jiangnan, emitting a faint fragrance, exquisitely beautiful beyond measure.
"Splash!"
Ye Chuxue stepped into the water, causing ripples to spread.
Li Chen took out the freshly prepared Marrow Cleansing Pill and handed it over, "Xue’er, eat this. Remember, don’t chew it, let it dissolve naturally!"
"Oh!"
Ye Chuxue casually replied, carefully took the pill, and gently placed it in her mouth.
Li Chen cautioned, "Xue’er, later when I open your governor and conception vessels, it may be quite uncomfortable. You must endure it, do you hear me?"
Ye Chuxue had the pill in her mouth and couldn’t talk, so she just hummed twice to indicate she had heard.
Seeing that Ye Chuxue had remembered his instructions, Li Chen began the next step.
"Alright, now listen to my command, close your eyes, calm your mind, hold your breath!"
Li Chen took out the Golden Needle, ready to proceed with the most crucial step, to open the governor and conception vessels, allowing True Yuan to flow through her twelve primary meridians and thirty-six revolutions.
In the human body, there’s the "Ren Meridian" at the front center and the "Du Meridian" at the back center, each with a unique meridian channel that runs through the whole body. The Dantian is located at the center of these governor and conception vessels.
Li Chen first took out the Golden Needle to close Ye Chuxue’s governor and conception vessels. Then he slowly infused his own True Yuan into her body, successively clearing the Shaoshang, Shaochong, Shaoze, Guan Chong, Zhong Chong, and Shangyang six meridians, and the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian, Hand Yangming Large Intestine Meridian, hand shaoyin heart meridian, Hand Shaoyang Triple Energizer Meridian, Hand Jueyin Pericardium Meridian, Hand Taiyang Small Intestine Meridian, and the other twelve primary meridians.
Ye Chuxue’s heart rate had clearly accelerated. The meridians in her body were constantly being forced open and widened. The opening and widening of any meridian is equivalent to the pain of a level thirteen, roughly comparable to a woman giving birth.
Bean-sized sweat beads, like raindrops, slid from her fair forehead. It was obvious that she was enduring tremendous pain.
Li Chen was anxious, regretting that he was clearing Ye Chuxue’s meridians now. Such pain, not to speak of a young girl, even a tough man would struggle to endure.
"Xue’er, if you feel you can’t bear it, just shout, and I will stop immediately!"
What Li Chen didn’t expect was that Ye Chuxue, who was usually afraid of pain, could actually grit her teeth and persist this time.
"It’s alright, Brother Li Chen, keep going, I can still bear it!"
After saying that, Ye Chuxue clenched her teeth tightly, trying her best not to make a sound.
Because she clearly understood that Li Chen was no longer the taciturn boy who first came to her house five years ago, and she was still the same Ye Chuxue.
She might not catch up to his pace, but she would absolutely not be left so far behind that she couldn’t see his silhouette. This was her pride, Ye Chuxue’s pride!
