Chapter 260: Chapter 241 Life Winner_2
âHuh, how come youâre here, class monitor?
When Yan Bingxuan came over, she brought Mo Simin with her. Chen Mobai wondered in his heart whether there would be enough to eat.
âOn the way here.â
Mo Simin saw Chen Mobai and Qing Nu, who had already sat down, and her mouth twitched at the sight. However, since she didnât trust her innocent friend, Yan Bingxuan, to venture into the battlefield alone, she had decided to come over with a âif I donât go to hell, who willâ mentality.
âAlright, then. Boss, serve the dishes.â
Since they were old classmates, Chen Mobai wouldnât drive them away. It was the same restaurant they ate in when they parted ways four years ago. He had sent two Azure Blood Carps to the restaurant earlier in the day and they were just perfectly grilled now.
âWhere are your little brother and sister? Why havenât they arrived yet?â When the food was served, Chen Mobai asked Qing Nu where Kong Feichen and Yang Jing were, as they hadnât arrived yet.
âTheyâre a bit delayed, theyâll be here soon.
They ended up waiting for half an hour until Chen Mobai and the others had finished eating one of the carps before the two of them arrived.
âHurry up, weâre waiting on you. Fortunately, I had the foresight to save one.â Kong Feichen had matured greatly over the year. He wore a white coat and a middle-parted hairstyle. Upon arriving, he greeted everyone before sitting down.
Yang Jing, on the other hand, sat down without a word and began to eat.
âCome to think of it, isnât it said that the success rate of Foundation
Establishment is high for those with Different Spiritual Roots? How did you manage to fail?â
Chen Mobai brought up the awkward topic, making Kong Feichen glare at him.
The delicious food in his mouth lost its taste immediately.
-He has a knot in his heart, or in ancient terms, he has a Heart Demon. Unless
he breaks through this Demon, he cannot advance.
Qing Nu didnât hide anything, she quickly picked at the fish meat while talking about her brotherâs situation.
âA Heart Demon?â
Chen Mobai glanced at Yang Jing who had been eating non-stop since he sat
down.
âItâS pretty much what youâre thinking, so we might need your help.â
âHow can I help?â
Regardless of his relationship with Qing Nu, Kong Feichen had been running errands for the two of them over the past two years, so it was only right for him to help.
âWeâll discuss it another time, letâs eat.â
After saying this, Qing Nu bowed her head and resumed her onslaught on the
fish.
âThe fish tastes even better than last time.
Yan Bingxuan elegantly put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth after
she finished eating.
âOf course, itâs a specialty of my hometown, you canât find it anywhere else.â
-Iâve been to your hometown before, but I didnât see any such fish there.â
âHuh?â
Hearing this, Chen Mobai looked surprised. He stared blankly at Yan Bingxuan, unable to comprehend that she would travel such a distance just to eat fish.
âReally?â
All those present were astonished upon hearing Yan Bingxuanâs words, and couldnât resist asking more questions.
âDuring the holiday of our second year, I came back as you guys werenât here. Not knowing how to pass the time, I took a spontaneous trip to Green . Mountain Village. The alcohol there is good, but they donât have this fis .â Yan Bingxuan looked straight at Chen Mobai, who swiftly averted his gaze but quickly came up with an excuse.
âI didnât explain correctly. Taixu Mountain Range is vast. Actually, three mountains away from Green Mountain Village, thereâs a lake connected to an underground river. The fish living there is the kind weâre eating.â
âYouâll have to show me the place when youâve time.
âSure⊠But Iâll be busy creating the Clear Eyesight Bamboo Spirit Dew with Qing Nu over the next few days, so perhaps sometime after half a month.â As Chen Mobai spoke, he pretended to be pressed for time, shaking his head and sighing.
âOh, I see.â
When Yan Bingxuan responded, her tone didnât fluctuate, but Chen Mobai felt inexplicably guilty.
âSeriously, Iâm not lying. I also need a piece of Spiritual Medicine that youâll
have to help freeze.â
âOh, alright then, Iâll help you.â
Chen Mobai couldnât tell if it was an illusion, but he sensed a different emotion in Yan Bingxuanâs last sentence.
Right now, Qing Nu simply wanted to say:
[What does Alchemy have to do with you two? I alone is enough. Are you guys here just to mess things up?!]
But considering that Chen Mobai might face difficulties, she pouted and continued eating her fish.
Kong Feichen clenched his fists rigidly, the only thing stopping him from making a move was knowing he wouldnât win.
After settling the bill, everyone went their separate ways.
When Chen Mobai returned home, both his parents were watching television in the living room.
-Son, your uncle will arrive tomorrow night. Youâll go pick him up. Then invite your auntâs family so we can all have dinner together.
âAlright, mom, are you thinking of going back to Green Mountain Village anytime soon?â
âNo, why do you ask?â
Chen Mobai shook his head, indicating it was nothing. After all, he couldnât tell them he needed to prepare the stage to prove that the Azure Blood Carp was truly a specialty of Taixu Mountain Range.
Letâs take one step at a time. If all else fails, he could always say he had a school event and had to return early due to being busy.
With these thoughts in mind, Chen Mobai went back to his room. Itâs strange When he returned to his hometown after Foundation Establishment, the previously annoying reporters disappeared without a trace, not even one appearing before his eyes.
Perhaps this is what leveling up feels like.
With these thoughts, Chen Mobai sat cross-legged on his bed, clutching a Spirit Stone and began Cultivating his Pure Yang Body..
