Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 381 - 378: Jiang Taigong Fishes, Those Who Wish Will Be Hooked!

Chapter 381: Chapter 378: Jiang Taigong Fishes, Those Who Wish Will Be Hooked!

Li Chen alone subdued the Heavenly Master Sect, slaying Gongzi Yuu. This news was wilder than the thunder and lightning on Heming Mountain, and in less than a day, it had swept across all of Huaxia, shocking the world!

Especially when some fantasy-loving girls found out that Immortal Master Li had sought vengeance for the woman he loved, their adoration for him reached an extreme point. Even the former fangirls of Gongzi Yuu began to switch sides, becoming die-hard fans of Immortal Master Li.

A fit of rage for the sake of a beauty, trampling Heming Mountain with a single step. What girl could resist such a romantic tale?

The ranking battle between Immortal Master Li and Gongzi Yuu had also come to an end.

The Heaven and Earth List had timely updated the Heavenly List rankings, promoting Li Chen from third place, the third-place winner, to second place, the runner-up.

The top of the Heavenly List was still held by the Undefeated War God Li Lingtian, and to this day, there has been no disagreement on this point. However, many people were now looking forward to seeing who would be the ultimate king if the two Li’s were to confront each other face-to-face in the future.

The legendary deeds of Immortal Master Li continued to be the talk of the town. However, the person in question, Li Chen, was currently lingering in the tender land of love.

Affected by the Siberian cold front, this year’s Jiangnan saw rare snowfall.

For Ye Chuxue, a southern girl who seldom saw snow, this was very exciting. She stretched her fair little hand out of the window, letting the snowflakes fall into her palm, savoring that bitingly cold sensation.

But she hadn’t been playing for long before she sneezed.

Li Chen quickly picked up a coat and draped it over her shoulders.

"Xue’er, your body is weak right now, don’t catch a cold!"

Ye Chuxue’s eyes sparkled with a smile, and she obediently nodded her head, but her little hands, red from the cold, were still stretched outside the window.

Li Chen was helpless with her, but he didn’t say much, only shaking his head in resignation.

Her mood infectious, Li Chen also found himself staring blankly at the snowflakes outside the window.

"The snow here is too small. In the Northern Country, that’s where the real big goose-feather snowflakes fall. Waking up overnight, the ground would be covered with snow up to the calves!"

Ye Chuxue’s lips held a curved smile as she said, "I know, just like what is written in ’Qin Yuan Chun · Snow’: Northern scenery, a thousand miles of ice sealing, ten thousand miles of snow drifting."

Having said that, she looked up at Li Chen: "Brother Li Chen, take me to the Northern Country to build a snowman sometime!"

Hearing the words "build a snowman," Li Chen’s memory involuntarily drifted back to his childhood.

He remembered that as a child, for some reason, his parents liked to move houses frequently. They only lived in each place for about half a year, leaving their footprints in Jiangnan and the Northern Country.

During their time in the Northern Country, it was deep winter, and goose-feather snow began to fall. He and his parents would build snowmen together.

He still remembered that snowman, as tall as he was at the time, with glass ball eyes, a fresh carrot for a nose from the market, and a felt hat adorned with a tiger’s head...

"Brother Li Chen, what’s the matter?"

Ye Chuxue, having not heard a reply from Li Chen for a long time, blinked and inquired.

Li Chen forced a casual smile and said, "It’s nothing. I was just thinking of some things from the past!"

Ye Chuxue blinked curiously and probed, "What things? You seem so engrossed."

Li Chen did not want to engage in this topic. His gaze wandered and he saw the Husky that Tang Wan’er was raising, frolicking in the snow.

"When I was about three years old, I saw a lady holding a baby on the street, and curiously asked my mom where babies came from."

Ye Chuxue blinked her watery large eyes and asked, "And how did she answer?"

Li Chen said, "My mom said that you get pregnant just by kissing!"

Ye Chuxue’s face showed surprise: "Eh? And you believed it?"

Li Chen nodded solemnly, "Yes, I believed it. The next day, while I was eating a cookie at home, the neighbor’s Husky came to snatch it, and accidentally brushed against my mouth."

"After about three or four months, that husky actually gave birth to a litter of mixed breed pups. During those days, the neighbor’s auntie was cursing non-stop, complaining that her purebred dog was ruined, and if she caught whoever was responsible, she would beat them to death."

"I was so scared at the time that I didn’t dare to go outside, worrying that I might really get beaten to death. I could only secretly swear to that husky that as long as I had something to eat, I would never let her and her six pups go hungry!"

"Pfft!"

Ye Chuxue was amused by Li Chen’s words, covering her stomach with a small hand and laughing so hard that she was shaking like a blooming branch.

After she laughed for a while and saw Li Chen staring at her intently, she felt curious and asked, "Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?"

Li Chen nodded vigorously and said, "Yeah, there’s a grain of rice on the corner of your mouth!"

Ye Chuxue instinctively reached to touch it and muttered, "Strange, I haven’t eaten rice these past few days, where did this grain come from?"

Li Chen said solemnly, "Don’t move, I’ll help you get it off!"

"Oh, okay!" Ye Chuxue looked at Li Chen and nodded gently.

Li Chen gave her a slight smile, wrapped his arms around her waist, and leaned down to kiss her.

It was at that moment Ye Chuxue realized she had been tricked by someone again.

However, she didn’t struggle at all, just gently closed her eyes. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly out of nervousness, making her look exceptionally playful and cute.

After about two or three minutes, Li Chen finally let go and said seriously, "There, clean now, no more rice grains!"

Ye Chuxue rolled her eyes at him and whispered reproachfully, "Hmph, bad guy, always tricking me!"

After spending Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with Ye Chuxue, Li Chen went north to the Central Plains, ready to seek out the thousand-year-old spiritual medicine with the Cold Attribute from Medicine King Valley.

The Master of Medicine King Valley, Sun Baiyang, upon learning that Immortal Master Li, the Killing God, was coming, was so frightened he was beside himself.

It was precisely noon, but he had skipped lunch in a rush to run to Yan Mountain, seeking assistance from his old friend Li Lingtian.

Li Lingtian had been pretty idle lately, he was fishing through a hole he smashed into the icy surface. Just like Jiang Ziya, he was using a straight hook.

That day, Azure Dragon had just returned from a mission in North Africa and was reporting the outcome to him.

After the report, he paused for a moment and asked, "Boss, I heard that during the months I was absent abroad, a miraculous prodigy named Immortal Master Li appeared in Jiangnan, who, at just twenty, has already become unmatched in Huaxia?"

Li Lingtian was in a good mood, nodding approvingly, "Yes, his talent is a cut above the rest of you!"

Hearing this, the always proud Azure Dragon felt a bit displeased.

Li Lingtian caught a glance from Azure Dragon and asked with a smile, "What, you’re not convinced?"

Azure Dragon nodded and said, "A bit, didn’t you always teach us, ’Hearing is false, seeing is believing’? I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, how can I be convinced?"

Li Lingtian smiled lightly and said, "Don’t worry, it won’t be long before you meet him!"

Seeing that his boss didn’t elaborate, Azure Dragon didn’t press further.

Then, he glanced casually at the ice and switched the subject, "Boss, you’re using a straight hook, can you really catch any fish with that?"

Li Lingtian smiled mysteriously, "Jiang Taigong fishes, waiting for the fish that will take the hook!"

Before he finished speaking, the fishing rod shook violently twice.

Li Lingtian pulled hard and a fat, two-pound salmon was pulled out of the ice.

"See, the fish took the bait!"

Just then, a guard hurried over to report: The Master of the Medicine King Valley, Sun Baiyang, has come seeking an audience!
