Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 1029 - 1026: Tree Wall Qingxue!

Before Li Chen’s words fell, Ximen Qingxue sneakily poked her head over.

Soon after, she said with a guilty look on her face, "I, I, I just happened to be passing by!"

Li Chen smiled casually and asked, "Oh, and where are you going?"

Ximen Qingxue’s eyes darted around as she thought quickly, and she stammered, "I, I, I couldn’t sleep at night, just wandering around!"

Li Chen shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Same here, let’s walk together!"

Ximen Qingxue looked at Li Chen and said sourly, "Aren’t you going to accompany the Little Demon Immortal? After all, she has the Yu Emperor’s Treasure Cauldron as a dowry, unlike me, who has nothing. My father doesn’t want me anymore, and I can’t return home!"

The more Ximen Qingxue spoke, the sadder she became, and in the end, she even wiped away a tear, looking like a forsaken lady full of resentment.

Li Chen pursed his lips, saying nothing, but stepped forward to embrace her in his arms and kissed the tears on her cheek.

"You’ve still got me!"

"Hmph, you’re such a liar!"

Though she said that, Ximen Qingxue still clung tightly to Li Chen, showing no sign of letting go.

Li Chen was speechless and asked, "What did I lie to you about?"

Ximen Qingxue rolled her eyes and, with a flushed face, said, "You deceived me out of my pure and chaste body, and... my heart..."

Li Chen looked sheepishly embarrassed.

Then, a mischievous smile appeared on his lips, and he said, "Can I deceive you one more time?"

Before Ximen Qingxue could respond, Li Chen suddenly leaned forward.

Ximen Qingxue was forced to retreat again and again until she backed up against a cherry blossom tree with nowhere else to go.

She wanted to escape, but Li Chen blocked her with his hand.

The moonlight was just right, with its soft glow like a trickling clear spring, pouring down through the cherry blossom branches, casting a luminous sheen on Ximen Qingxue’s cheeks.

Seeing Li Chen staring straight at her, Ximen Qingxue’s delicate face flushed with embarrassment as she softly scolded, "You, you rogue, why are you blocking me?"

Li Chen said nothing, just quietly gazed at Ximen Qingxue, his star-like, deep and bright eyes fixed on her, seeming lost in thought.

Their eyes met, and everything was expressed in silence.

Suddenly!

The night breeze gently brushed past, and the cherry blossom branches above rustled, with falling petals scattering beautifully.

Li Chen and Ximen Qingxue continued to stand opposite each other, ignoring the cherry blossoms that fell on their heads.

After a long while, Ximen Qingxue finally broke the silence with a flushed face, saying, "Don’t you have anything to say to me?"

Li Chen smiled gently and asked, "Are you jealous?"

Upon hearing Li Chen’s sudden inquiry, Ximen Qingxue’s pretty face turned even redder with embarrassment, and she stammered, "No way, stop being narcissistic here, only a fool would be jealous of you!"

After saying that, she took advantage of Li Chen’s inattention and pushed his hand aside, saying, "It’s getting late, I’m going to sleep now, goodbye!"

Ximen Qingxue walked six or seven steps away, then looked back to see Li Chen wasn’t following, her eyebrows furrowed, and she glared at him fiercely, muttering under her breath, before heading back to her room.

Li Chen watched Ximen Qingxue’s gradually receding figure, his thoughts swirling quietly...
