My gorgeous wife-Chapter 1831 - 1800: Do You Have a Dream?

Watching Mo Chenxi practice sword techniques energetically in the small courtyard, Li Chen suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of sentiment.

"Could it be that I’m naturally more relatable to little girls?"

Touching his chin, Li Chen realized something — he seemed to have quite a fate with little girls.

When he first entered the Immortal Realm, he encountered a pair of sisters, and now he met another one here.

But, that pair of sisters seemed even younger than Mo Chenxi.

Of course, Mo Chenxi’s cultivation was also higher. She was already at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal level and seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to the Profound Immortal.

"Monster genius."

Li Chen was somewhat speechless.

Are geniuses really so common nowadays?

Calculating the time Li Chen has spent in the Immortal Realm, it’s been quite a few years. Although he no longer has a clear concept of time, he figured he must be over forty now, right?

Even though after stepping into the Heavenly Level, he entered a completely different world, he should probably count as a genuine middle-aged man now...

In his eyes, someone in their twenties truly is just like a little girl.

Of course, whether in the Immortal Realm or the Heaven Realm, in the eyes of most people, someone in their twenties would still be considered at the "little girl" level.

"Deceiving such a little girl always brings a sense of guilt." Li Chen’s expression was a bit odd.

Of course, he wouldn’t reveal his true identity to Mo Chenxi, but he spun a quite mysterious identity: an Immortal Traveler journeying across the Immortal Realm, determined to traverse every corner!

It sounds grand, but he’s essentially just an Immortal Realm version of a backpacker...

Of course, unlike the Lower Realm, being a traveler in a high-level domain requires formidable strength and extensive wilderness survival experience.

After all, the high-level domain is unlike the low-level domain, even though each race occupies the mainstream of the Great Realms, one would still frequently encounter things like Celestial Demon Beasts in the wilderness, and failing to handle them could lead to a dead end.

Mo Chenxi, with her simplicity, casually asked, "How does a Yellow Rank become an Immortal Traveler?"

The result almost broke Li Chen’s act.

Luckily, he managed to cover it up in time, claiming he encountered a formidable enemy, and even after a hard-won victory, he was ambushed, losing all his cultivation, thus needing time to re-cultivate.

This lie was so outrageous that even Li Chen himself was skeptical.

But Mo Chenxi... believed it.

"No, no! Drawing the sword involves the heart, the intention, and the momentum. Your sword only has momentum, barely touching on heart and intention. Focus, more focus!" Watching Mo Chenxi practice sword techniques, Li Chen started guiding her from the side.

Li Chen was somewhat grateful to Mo Chenxi.

Honestly, through the Five Elements Boots, he realized his predicament earlier, and the identity of Supreme Treasure was too special to be revealed publicly.

Yet seeking resources on their own was like trying to put out a large fire with a cup of water.

Li Chen was well aware that he had been in the ’Metamorphosis Period’; the soul was still manageable, thanks to the existence of the Book of Four Realms.

However, transforming the physical body wasn’t as easy.

Through a ’death’, Li Chen finally comprehended the concept of ’Not Broken, Not Established’ with the Indestructible Body.

Li Chen broke, and he also established.

However, due to insufficient energy to truly ’establish’ himself, he remained unable to awaken.

During the days in Mo Chenxi’s place, the Spiritual Springs poured upon him came as a timely gift.

Thus, Li Chen didn’t mind guiding this young girl practicing sword techniques.

Perhaps in other areas, Li Chen wouldn’t dare claim much expertise, but in the Way of the Sword, Li Chen had long found his path.

Now, even if Daolan Heavenly King reappeared, Li Chen could discuss the way equally with him.

Daolan Heavenly King’s strength lay in the profound understanding of the Way of the Sword, and he could have long breached realms but persistently restrained himself. From the perspective of sword realm, Daolan Heavenly King was truly no weaker than some Daoist Lords, which is one reason why Daolan Heavenly King held such fame in the Borderlands.

Now, Li Chen’s sword realm was no weaker than Daolan Heavenly King’s of the past.

"Is this right?" Mo Chenxi gradually adjusted her sword drawing technique according to Li Chen’s instructions, only to find that after changing her sword route, her sword techniques became much more enigmatic. Although the power increased, drawing the sword felt even more effortless.

"Uh, yes, it’s right, but I still think you should be faster." Watching Mo Chenxi practice sword techniques, Li Chen energetically guided her.

Not knowing whether it was due to having been a teacher before, Li Chen slipped into the role seamlessly.

Although Li Chen hadn’t read Mo Chenxi’s sword techniques, his realm was high; he could spot numerous flaws in Mo Chenxi’s swordsmanship at a glance.

"Hoo—Hoo—"

After finishing a round of sword techniques, Mo Chenxi felt quite sweaty. As a Heavenly Immortal, sweating just from practicing swords without using Immortal Yuan was simply incredible. Moreover, after completing the whole set, Mo Chenxi not only didn’t feel tired but even felt more energized.

Mo Chenxi looked at Li Chen with surprise in her eyes, knowing she had truly encountered a master.

Li Chen smiled: "Go take a bath first."

"Uh-huh." Mo Chenxi now fully categorized Li Chen into the group of people she could ’trust,’ and hearing his words, she didn’t hesitate and ran straight into a room nearby.

At that moment, the ground in the small courtyard suddenly had a piece of land rise up, and then this risen ground transformed back into a human shape.

"So fast?" Li Chen showed no trace of surprise. Though the Mo clan’s defenses and restrictions might be impregnable to others, they were probably nothing to the Five Elements Boots.

It’s worth noting that the current Five Elements Boots were not in the former state of lacking energy with a flawed body.

"Just a round trip, doesn’t take much time." Five Elements Boots chuckled: "But boss, this is..."

"It’s a kind of disguise." Li Chen glanced down at his miniature body and replied: "Changing back to my original size isn’t hard, but fully restoring my cultivation still needs time. So there’s no harm in keeping this form, and as a low-rank individual, I’m unlikely seen as a threat by people here, right?"

Five Elements Boots silently nodded, as long as the boss is happy.

He’s not new here; he’s been back for a while. Just now, he clearly saw Li Chen instructing that girl on sword techniques.

"By the way, how’s the outside situation?" Li Chen asked.

Upon hearing Li Chen’s question, Five Elements Boots’ expression became much more serious.

"Boss, Wen Jutian and several surrounding Heavenly Domains are now hunting for you." Five Elements Boots said: "But, they’re still after the name Lin Chen. Plus, we’re approximately three to four Heavenly Domains away from Wen Jutian. Their hunt should pose no threat to you now."

"But I’ve discovered something."

"What?" Li Chen showed curiosity, thinking that being hunted was obvious, Li Chen quickly understood the reason.

"Seems like... your original name is wanted throughout the Immortal Domain..." Five Elements Boots said with some weird look.

Li Chen fell silent for a moment: "Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor?"

"Big sister guessed it should be him too." Five Elements Boots shrugged: "I can’t think of anyone except the Daoist Lord who would have such massive energy to hunt someone throughout the Immortal Domain."

Li Chen exhaled a breath: "No need to worry for now, nobody would discover me in my current state. Also, after rebirth, I successfully advanced to the Indestructible Body, but my cultivation restarted from zero. During recovery, I can also change and reshape my aura, though I need to slightly alter my cultivation technique."

Li Chen pondered and then said: "The few of you should hide for now, don’t come to me. I can sense there are many strong ones here, and if you’re discovered, it would be bad. Plus, since we know many people are searching for me, you should be cautious and don’t show yourselves anymore."

"I understand." Five Elements Boots nodded and vanished again, leaving no trace.

Li Chen exhaled and looked at the sky, his state of mind gradually becoming calm.

He was anxious, eager to return to the Heaven Realm, which was at war now. He wondered how everyone was doing.

But he knew some things couldn’t be rushed.

After the bath, Mo Chenxi returned to Li Chen’s side in a new outfit.

"Immortal Traveler senior, are you that Little Red Flower transformed?" Mo Chenxi didn’t sense the arrival of Five Elements Boots, she quietly came to the window, sitting side by side with Li Chen.

The sky gradually darkened, and the vast starry sky unfolded before the two.

Li Chen and Mo Chenxi sat side by side, large and small, looking neatly at the starry sky.

"How did you know?" Li Chen was quite curious, looking up at Mo Chenxi, without denying it.

"Because you have the scent of Spiritual Springs on you." Mo Chenxi said playfully: "And it’s scent from our Mo clan’s unique Spiritual Spring; even if absorbed cleanly, our clan can smell the residual fragrance for at least three days. As a few Ascenders who recently joined our Mo clan said, it’s called... anti-counterfeiting label."

Li Chen: "..."

"Chenxi, do you like practicing swords?" Li Chen suddenly asked.

"Yes, very much." Gazing at the starry sky, Mo Chenxi’s eyes gradually became a bit dazed: "I also want to become strong and contribute to the family in my name. Instead of growing up happily only to find I’m incapable, it’s a dream I’ve had since I was young."

"Then, Immortal Traveler senior, do you have a dream?"

In Li Chen’s mind, faces flashed by.

Past ones, present ones, living ones, dead ones...

After a moment of silence, Li Chen nodded firmly: "I do!"
