Chapter 148 Stealing Failure
When Long Chen opened his eyes, Tang Wan-er immediately noticed and asked, How did it go?
Long Chen smiled slightly and raised a finger . With just a thought, his finger immediately became covered by thin bolts of thunderforce, emitting a rumbling sound .
Tang Wan-er covered her mouth, filled with disbelief . She had thought Long Chens plan had been completely crazy and absolutely impossible .
But now Long Chen was clearly using thunderforce, meaning he had done what she had thought to be impossible .
How is this possible? Tang Wan-er muttered to herself as she examined his finger that was covered with thunderforce .
Hehe, how is it? Are you convinced? Remember to treat me better now; that way youll be able to keep me firmly by your side .
Of course, thats still not enough . If you really want to make our relationship more firm, you might consider other methods . For example, giving your heart to me, said Long Chen with a serious face .
Tch, you? Do you think a rookie still at the mid Blood Condensation is worthy of my heart? Have you still not woken up? Tang Wan-er raised her head disdainfully .
Wait, how did you learn my cultivation base? Long Chen was startled .
When you fought with Zhao Wu after he used his Beast Transformation, your aura leaked out . Although you hide it extremely well, you cant hide it from my senses . And I think it wasnt just me who sensed it . Lei Qianshang should also have noticed, lightly said Tang Wan-er .
Ah, as expected of monaster-class geniuses . Those kinds of senses are truly frightening, sighed Long Chen . In the future he would have to be even more careful .
He didnt want to reveal his own cultivation base . That was because all the registrants were all at the peak of the late Blood Condensation realm . In other words, they were all at the ninth Heavenstage .
And the majority were already at the great circle of Blood Condensation and could step into the Muscle Rebirth realm at any time they wanted . They had merely used medicinal pills to suppress their cultivation base .
Perhaps he was the only one who was merely at the sixth Heavenstage . He didnt want to stand out too much . It was uncomfortable to be the center of attention .
Id say the monster would have to be you . You even have the ability to do such a heaven-defying thing . Tang Wan-er pointed to his finger .
Although Tang Wan-er didnt want to praise him, she had no choice but to admit Long Chen had truly shocked her .
He was actually able to steal someone elses core energy for his own use . That kind of ability was too shocking, perhaps even heaven-defying .
Long Chen shook his head helplessly . Ah, what heaven-defying . It was still a failure .
What? Didnt you condense your own thunderforce? Tang Wan-er said in shock .
Although I refined his thunderforce, my own spiritual qi is unable to transform into more thunderforce . In other words, all the thunderforce I have is the thunderforce sent to me by Lei Qianshang .
That means once Ive used it all up, Ill need to find another source to replenish it . Basically I wasted half a days work and didnt get much of anything . It really is disheartening, he dejectedly explained .
Thunderforce was not the same as his flame energy . His spiritual qi was able to transform into flame energy . So as long as he had enough spiritual qi, he would never run out of flame energy .
But his thunderforce was not the same . Once it was used up, it would be gone forever . He would need to constantly find a source to absorb more . Perhaps he would have to often fight with Lei Qianshang in the future .
But of course, Lei Qianshang also wasnt an idiot . Once time progressed, he would definitely suspect something . If he refused to fight Long Chen, Long Chen would only be able to run out of power .
That was why Long Chen was so dejected . That wasnt the same at all with what he had been hoping for . His hope of using thunderforce to temper his body had also failed .
Actually thats already extremely impressive for your body to be able to contain lightning and thunder . But I do have a way to resolve your current problem . Tang Wan-er smiled slightly .
Really? Long Chen asked surprised .
Of course . As long as you go there, itll resolve everything . Tang Wan-er pointed up to the sky . When a huge storm unfurls and lightning and thunder crash down, you can go up there and gather thunderforce, haha . Tang Wan-er began to laugh .
Long Chen disdainfully said, Are you trying to make me receive heavenly punishment?
Of course not! Im just very enthusiastic, and Im definitely a specialist at flying kites . As long as you say a single word, I am definitely willing to help you fly up, laughed Tang Wan-er .
Although she was laughing, Long Chen actually thought that was a good way to gather lightning .
Seeing Long Chen was looking up into the sky and was thinking deeply, Tang Wan-er was startled and said, I was just joking! You arent really thinking of trying, are you?
Long Chen nodded . Your method really is not bad . When Im ready to test it, Ill definitely come find you .
Dusting himself off, he began to collect some firewood . With a point of his hand, a spark shot out and immediately set the wood ablaze .
What are you think of doing? asked Tang Wan-er .
Im going to thank you for helping me . Although I didnt succeed, I still have to thank you and treat you to a meal, laughed Long Chen .
Her face reddened . She knew he was talking about the matter of her giving him mouth-to-mouth . She both bashfully and angrily said, Long Chen, if you mess around anymore, I wont forgive you .
Dont worry, it will be our secret . I wont tell anyone even if they beat me to death, he solemnly swore .
Although she felt as if he had said that weirdly, she saw that he was serious and so she was relieved .
Once the fire was started, it wasnt long before it became a blaze . Long Chen took out ten Wonder Carps .
You actually have caught Wonder Carps? Tang Wan-er was shocked .
Hehe, this is nothing . Tomorrow Ill catch two dragons for you to eat with no problem . Long Chen took out a basin of water and began to scrub the Wonder Carps clean . He also took out their essence from their cheeks and put those beside the fire .
What kind of big talk is that? Dragons are divine beasts in legends . Whether they exist or not is unknown . How are you planning on capturing them?
People need dreams . What if one day you achieve it? So dreams are definitely a must-have . Otherwise, would there even be any joy in life? asked Long Chen .
Dreams and big talk are two different things . Dont mix the two, defended Tang Wan-er .
Ah, I wont talk to someone without a sense of humor . It really is tiresome . Long Chen shook his head and focused on cooking the fish .
You Tang Wan-er frowned, but she then thought of something and sat down . Long Chen, Ive noticed you are extremely strange . Do you not know how to talk to others properly?
Ah, this question . Well the crucial point is that Id have to encounter a normal person first .
You scoundrel! Tang Wan-er couldnt resist anymore and gave him rap on the head . Are you saying Im not a normal person?
Long Chen didnt retaliate or dodge . Letting her hit him, he turned to look at her . Beautiful sister Tang Wan-er, do you feel you are normal right now?
She reddened and retorted, Im a very normal person . I only became like this because I encountered you!
Ah, well the fish are done . Lets eat .
Long Chen handed over a cooked Wonder Fish to her . When she took she, she immediately smelled its alluring smell and began to drool . Looking at Long Chen, she couldnt help feeling a bit bad .
Just eat . Only once you eat will you have the energy to sort me out, joked Long Chen .
She blushed and turned away, opening her mouth and taking a bite . She immediately exclaimed, Its delicious! No wonder its almost extinct in the human world . Its the first time Ive tasted it .
She was happily surprised . The Wonder Carps great name was known to all, but as for the number of people who had actually eaten it, it was pitifully low .
Haha, as I said, treat me better and you can eat it often . And if you want to give me your heart, then hehe, youll have endless delicacies to eat . Long Chen was also eating, pleased with himself .
Hmph, thats a nice dream . Do you think all women are as easy to trick as you hope? Tang Wan-er had obviously already become accustomed to Long Chens method of joking and no longer became angry . She gave him a cold retort as she continued eating .
After eating one, she didnt wait on courtesy and grabbed a second one, eating it right in front of Long Chen without any bit of politeness .
Oh right, you can actually control flame energy . Are you a Pill Cultivator? asked Tang Wan-er as she ate .
Yup, Im a Pill Adept, he answered .
Thats pretty good! Such a young Pill Adept definitely has a bright future . Why wouldnt you choose to refine pills and instead came on the path of cultivation? Tang Wan-er asked puzzled .
Do you think refining pills all day is interesting? The cultivation martial path is much more interesting . I can fight and pick up girls all day . Whoever I dont like I can kick away easily . And when I see a beautiful woman like you, I can perhaps take some liberties with her . Thats how to live a life .
Scoundrel, you barely said a couple normal sentences before once more fooling around . Then does your Pill Cultivation master approve of you choosing the martial cultivation path? she asked after rebuking him .
Hearing that, Long Chen paused for a moment . Grandmaster Yun Qis image floated into his mind . That last scene of grandmaster Yun Qi transforming into ashes was still as fresh in his mind as if it had happened yesterday .
He should approve . Long Chen shook his head .
What do you mean should? she said dissatisfied .
Thats because hes already dead, so I myself dont know his true thoughts . Long Chen smiled slightly, but his smile was somewhat mournful .
Seeing that trace of sadness in Long Chens eyes, Tang Wan-ers heart trembled . That was the first time she sensed the sorrow deep within his heart .
Ok, weve finished eating the fish . Remember, if you want to keep eating these fish, treat me a bit better in the future . Ill leave first . Long Chen stood up .
Seeing Long Chen was about to leave, for some unknown reason she was somewhat disappointed inside . As for why, even she wasnt sure .
Thats right, Long Chen, have you collected all the jade tiles?
No . Long Chen shook his head . In any case, he had more than enough time so he wasnt in a rush . At this time there were still many fragmented sets and so it would be more troublesome to collect them all .
I have a full set here . Ill give it to you . Tang Wan-er handed Long Chen a tablet .
Unlike his tile, this tablet had all four Tian, Di, Xuan, Huang words on it . The four different tiles had merged into a single tablet and could no longer be separated .
Long Chen smiled slightly and received it . Ah, so this must be what it means to be kind to be the one who pays for the meal . Ok, thank you . But dont think this small favor is enough for me to be unswervingly loyal to you . But if you want that, you can always try giving me your heart .
Get lost!
Tang Wan-er was irritated again . Long Chen had only been normal for a moment before once again messing around . She sent a kick at Long Chen .
Long Chen laughingly dodged her attack and disappeared from the valley in just a few moments .
Seeing Long Chen disappear, Tang Wan-ers anger faded and she actually laughed . Sorting out her emotions, she also disappeared from the valley .
