Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor

28: Chapter 28 What Do You Want?

[Revised Chapter] 28: Chapter 28 What Do You Want?

[Revised Chapter] Unbeknownst, the east already showed traces of dawn.

A round, red sun lazily climbed above the horizon, shedding light on the Human World.

Li Chen lifted his head to look at the sky, stretched lazily, and said, “It’s getting light.

Let’s go, it’s time to return!”

Moo Xi pouted and said, “Cut it out, who wants to go back with you!”

“Come on, you’re hurt and still causing such a fuss!”

Li Chen stepped forward and grabbed Moo Xi’s lotus-like fair arm, scolding her casually as if an elder lecturing a youngster.

Moo Xi struggled a few times but seeing she couldn’t break free from Li Chen’s grip, glared with her eyes wide open and said impatiently, “You’re hurting me, let go quickly!”

“And, don’t curl your legs; it can easily cause blood blockage and harm the wound!”

Moo Xi felt extremely wronged.

If not stretching her legs nor curling them, what was she supposed to do?

Li Chen sat down next to Moo Xi, placing her fair leg over his own.

“Don’t move, I’m going to change your dressing; don’t allow any complications.

Otherwise, if your legs end up uneven, you’ll have nowhere to cry!”

Hearing the severity in Li Chen’s words, Moo Xi didn’t dare to continue her wilfulness.

She looked up timidly at Li Chen and asked, “Could my leg really suffer complications?”

Being vain is a girl’s nature, especially for a girl nearly as demanding of perfection as Moo Xi.

With his head down, Li Chen said, “Depends on how obedient you are.

If you cooperate well, I guarantee there’ll be no problem.

Rest for three to five days, and you’ll be jumping around.

But if you’re not obedient…”

As he spoke, Li Chen suddenly stopped, giving Moo Xi a look as if the big bad wolf watching Little Red Riding Hood.

Feeling a bit intimidated, Moo Xi pursed her lips and asked, “Don’t beat around the bush, what happens if I’m not obedient?”

Li Chen rubbed his nose and said, “If you’re not obedient, I assure that in the future, you’ll become very adept with a wheelchair!”

Uh?

Adroit with a wheelchair?

Why would I need to be adroit with a wheelchair?

Suddenly, it dawned on her, and she shivered.

“You, you mean there’s a possibility I might become paralyzed?”

Li Chen shrugged and said, “No, just kidding!”

“Idiot, you…”

Moo Xi was about to retort when Li Chen suddenly turned stern, scolding.

“I’m changing your dressing, don’t fidget!”

Startled by his sudden change, Moo Xi fell silent and dared not move an inch.

Li Chen carefully unwrapped the bandage on Moo Xi’s calf and cleansed the foul-smelling herbs.

Watching Li Chen tend her wounds earnestly, Moo Xi’s heart pounded wildly.

He does look rather handsome when he’s serious, doesn’t he?

While Moo Xi was lost in her thoughts, Li Chen suddenly looked up at her.

“Miss, did you injure your waist before?

It was about three months ago!”

Moo Xi paused, tilted her head, blinked, and tried to recall the past.

It seemed like there was such an incident when she once mishandled a move while practicing “Sticking To Old Ways” and twisted her waist, feeling a sharp pain.

However, after resting for two days, she felt better.

To be safe, she even had an X-ray at the hospital, but no abnormality was found.

As the pain in her waist gradually disappeared, she did not pay much attention to it anymore.

As someone training in martial arts, encountering accidents was inevitable, so there was no need to be overly concerned.

But why would Li Chen suddenly bring this up, and even accurately determine the timing of the injury?

With curiosity brimming in her eyes, Moo Xi asked, “Yes, what about it?”

Li Chen pondered for a moment, then spoke solemnly, “There’s an issue with that cultivation technique of yours; better stop practicing it.

Otherwise, I can guarantee, at most within twenty years, you will completely lose sensation from the waist down.

By then, even playing with a wheelchair won’t be possible!”

Hearing Li Chen’s serious tone, Moo Xi was shocked and her mouth fell open.

“You’re not joking, right?”

Li Chen raised an eyebrow and asked: “Do I look like I’m joking right now?”

Moo Xi really wanted to retort with “yes,” but upon seeing Li Chen’s stern expression, which didn’t seem to be joking at all, she forcefully swallowed the words about to leave her mouth.

After a while, Li Chen spoke in a gentler tone, “There’s an issue with your cultivation technique; I can help make some corrections.”

Moo Xi widened her eyes, astonished, “Just you?

Correct our Moo Family’s cultivation technique?”

Li Chen smiled lightly and said, “Why, you don’t believe it?”

Moo Xi shook her head vigorously, saying, “I don’t believe!”

Actually, it’s no wonder she didn’t believe.

For anyone with a reasonable mind, they wouldn’t believe it either.

The Martial Arts of the Moo Family originated from Mo-tse during the Pre-Qin period, containing profound mysteries of heaven and earth.

Although, most of it has been lost over time, and the remaining parts have been mended by later generations.

Nevertheless, it still remains an undisputed classic.

Li Chen, merely in his twenties, boldly claiming he could amend their family’s cultivation technique, was utterly absurd.

Not to mention Li Chen, even Li Lingtian, who is currently the shining star among the Great Grandmasters of Huaxia Martial Arts, wouldn’t dare to make such audacious claims!

Seeing through Moo Xi’s thoughts, Li Chen raised an eyebrow and with a smile asked, “If I manage to correct your family’s cultivation technique, what reward would you offer?”

Blinking, Moo Xi asked, “What would you want?”
