Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 539 - 536: The Girl Like a Cherry Blossom!

Mount Fuji, Japan’s highest peak, is their sacred mountain. It is also a dormant volcano lying next to the East Pacific.

In the coastal areas, when summer begins, violent rainstorms and frequent thunderstorms often occur. If one could make good use of the seasonal thunderstorms, it could awaken Mount Fuji. Then all the required Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire would be at hand.

Just as Li Chen was planning how to carry out his plan, Anjin asked Ye Chuxue once more if she wanted to go to Mount Fuji for cherry blossom viewing next week.

Ye Chuxue did not answer him directly, but looked towards Li Chen.

Li Chen thought for a moment, smiled slightly, and said, "It’s quite unfortunate, next week, Chuxue’s grandmother is going to have her grand birthday celebration, so we really can’t make it!"

Anjin said, "Oh, then forget it. Chuxue, make sure to send my regards to your grandma!"

Ye Chuxue smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you."

After Anjin left, Ye Chuxue looked at Li Chen and said, "Grandma’s birthday is still a long way off. Why did you lie to Anjin? Do you not want me to go cherry blossom viewing at Mount Fuji?"

To this, Li Chen did not hide the truth: "Yeah, I don’t want you to go!"

Li Chen thought for a moment and said, "Because I’m going!"

Ye Chuxue, with wide eyes full of surprise, asked, "Then why can’t I go? Is it because someone wants to cheat on me behind my back?"

Li Chen, with an embarrassed face, said, "Cough cough, Xue’er, can we not use the phrase cheating?"

Ye Chuxue pouted her lips arrogantly and said, "Then tell me the real reason. Why don’t you want me to go cherry blossom viewing at Mount Fuji?"

Li Chen thought for a moment and said, "I simply find Mount Fuji displeasing to the eye and want to tear it down. Xue’er, do you think this reason is acceptable?"

"Ah? Tear down Mount Fuji?"

Ye Chuxue’s eyes widened in shock.

"That’s Mount Fuji, Japan’s holy mountain. Do you think it’s an illegal building, to be torn down just like that?"

Li Chen earnestly said, "Who cares if it’s a holy mountain or not, if I find the mountain displeasing, I want to tear it down."

Even though he wasn’t actually going to demolish the mountain, it was close enough, at least he surely could fill in the volcanic crater.

Ye Chuxue rolled her eyes in disbelief, with a face that said ’I don’t buy it’.

Li Chen leaned in close to her face, with a sly smile, and said, "Xue’er, your eyes are really beautiful!"

Ye Chuxue arrogantly pouted her lips but still did not respond to Li Chen.

Li Chen changed the subject and said, "However, they are still not as beautiful as mine!"

Ye Chuxue rolled her eyes exaggeratedly, "Cut it out, so narcissistic!"

Li Chen said earnestly, "Xue’er, this isn’t narcissism. I have an irrefutable good reason for it!"

Ye Chuxue and Li Chen locked eyes, her curiously asking, "What reason?"

Li Chen first pointed at his own eyes, then pointed at Ye Chuxue, "Because my eyes have you in them, is this reason enough?"

Ye Chuxue’s heart was tickled by Li Chen’s sudden sweet talk.

For this reason, she really had no comeback!

"Hmph, sweet-talker, always knowing just what to say to make girls happy!"

...

Two days before Li Chen was set to go to Japan to tear down the illegal construction that was Mount Fuji, Zhao Yuqing had already set off for Mount Fuji.

She had already broken through her shackles and advanced to the Transformation Realm half a month ago. If she were an ordinary person, she would surely have been ecstatic.

Yet, she appeared rather indifferent because the one in her heart had not long ago reached the Proving God Realm. This might be a height she could never surpass in her lifetime.

She had nearly staked her life on cultivation, but still found it impossible to catch up to his figure.

Zhao Yuqing felt inexplicably exhausted, and during a casual conversation, Qingwu told her that the cherry blossoms of Mount Fuji were in bloom.

During her studies, she had seen beautiful illustrations of Mount Fuji’s cherry blossoms in bloom in textbooks and thought they were very beautiful. She had always wanted to see them but never had the chance.

Now was a good time to go out for a walk and also to clear her mind.

After Qingming Festival, a hazy drizzle began to float from the sky. The rain brimmed with the spirit of spring, ethereal like flowers and mist, making Mount Fuji appear especially surreal.

At the base of the mountain, in Sakura Square, there were crowds holding umbrellas admiring the flowers.

However, Zhao Yuqing stood alone among the bustling crowd. Looking at the couples walking in pairs, a sense of inexplicable melancholy emerged in her heart.

In a daze, it was as if she could hear the person in her heart calling her name. As other boys held their girlfriends’ hands, he would take her small hand, walk through the hazy drizzle, and wander amidst the sea of cherry blossoms, to become a couple in love.

"Beautiful miss, are you alone?"

Just then, a somewhat unpleasant voice broke her reverie.

This was a young man dressed neatly and with handsome looks, holding an elegantly decorated oil-paper umbrella, his face adorned with a gentleman’s smile.

Zhao Yuqing glanced at him but did not respond.

The man politely introduced himself: "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Suzuki Dangkong. May I invite the beautiful miss to enjoy the cherry blossoms together?"

Japan had the Eight Major Financial Conglomerates, of which the Suzuki family was one.

Although Suzuki Dangkong was only a collateral relative of the family, he was still worth over a hundred billion Japanese yen. This was a pinnacle few could ever aspire to reach in a lifetime.

Moreover, he had studied abroad at the British Royal Academy in his early years. Noble gentlemanly manners were second nature to him. Coupled with his good looks, flirting with beautiful women was almost always successful for him.

This year, barely three months in, he had already lured eighty, if not a hundred, beautiful girls to his bed, practically landing a new ’prey’ every day. And most of them were daughters of wealthy families, and white-collar beauties—the very definition of high-quality women.

Today, as usual, Suzuki Dangkong came to Mount Fuji in search of new prey.

Upon seeing Zhao Yuqing standing underneath the cherry trees with a sorrow-stricken appearance, he was immediately struck as if by a heavenly person. She seemed like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting; compared to her, all the beautiful women he had flirted with before were but common and vulgar, not even worth mentioning.

As such, he was determined to win over this heart-throbbing fairy of a girl and even felt an impulse to marry her, to live out the rest of his days by her side.

However, his usual foolproof method of flirtation fell flat this time.

Zhao Yuqing just gave him a cold glance and, after dropping a curt "Not interested," walked straight towards the mountain.

Suzuki Dangkong, a seasoned player in the field of romance, was actually facing a girl who dared to reject him for the first time.

Rather than feeling any sense of loss, this rejection only fueled his masculine desire for conquest.

"Beauty, are you looking to climb Mount Fuji? I am a local, quite familiar with the terrain here, and can offer my services as a free tour guide!

Yet, Zhao Yuqing treated him as if he were thin air, completely ignoring him, which left playboy Suzuki Dangkong quite frustrated.

One of Suzuki’s subordinates, an Upper-level Ninja named Nozawa Saburo, saw Zhao Yuqing walking away and stepped forward to suggest.

"Young Master, that Hua Country girl is heading towards the backside of Mount Fuji where few people tread. If you like her, I can tie her up and bring her back!"

Suzuki Dangkong, never one for patience, didn’t hesitate and immediately agreed.

"Then I’ll trouble Nozawa-kun with this task. Remember, do not harm her!"
