235: Chapter 234 Not Only Edible, But Also Useful!

[Midnight] 235: Chapter 234 Not Only Edible, But Also Useful!

[Midnight] Seeing Tang Lianhe return unharmed, the Tang family members felt very surprised and kept asking him various questions.

On the way back, Li Chen had specifically instructed Tang Lianhe not to reveal his true identity.

Tang Lianhe, being a very steady person, naturally knew what was important and didn’t mention anything about Li Chen.

He only mentioned that Immortal Master Li appreciated his talent in the field of biopharmaceuticals and wanted him to manage the Prosperity Pharmaceutical Company owned by the Long Family.

The brothers of the Tang family never expected Tang the Third to turn his misfortune into such fortune, directly leaping into a high position as the president of Prosperity Pharma, and they were all filled with envy and jealousy.

Tang Lianhe knew that all his fortunes came from Li Chen, and inadvertently cast a grateful glance towards him.

Li Chen, with an air of a sage who cares not for recognition or fame, stealthily took Ye Chuxue to the garden for a secret meeting.

Ye Chuxue looked at Li Chen with sparkling eyes and said, “Li Chen, you are so impressive now, just a casual remark from you can change so many people’s destinies!”

Li Chen embraced Ye Chuxue, pressing his face against her delicately carved features.

“Xue’er, do you know that you are the only one who can change my destiny!”

Hearing Li Chen say this, Ye Chuxue felt incredibly sweet, as if she had eaten honey.

She sneakily glanced at Li Chen with a blushing face and giggled.

“Hehe, Li Chen, I think I’m falling for you!”

Li Chen was silent for three seconds, then said seriously, “What a way to phrase it, it sounds like you’ve been on top of me.”

Ye Chuxue was initially stunned.

By the time she realized what he meant, she playfully started hitting him with her little fists.

“Ahh, Li Chen, you jerk, you deserve to be single for life!”

Li Chen then wrapped his arms around Ye Chuxue’s waist and leaned in for a kiss.

Ye Chuxue, with her big sparkling eyes, was stunned as she looked at Li Chen.

Her beautiful, long eyelashes also trembled lightly because of the youthful hormones.

Just as they were lost in their kiss, a crisp, surprised voice came from the corridor not far away.

“Who is there?”

Hearing this, Ye Chuxue reacted like a startled rabbit, asking in alarm, “What should we do, it seems like Sister Wan’er is coming!”

Li Chen curled his lips and said indifferently, “What else can we do?

Just chill!”

Tang Wan’er came over and, seeing Li Chen and Ye Chuxue, asked in surprise, “Eh, Chuxue, Li Chen, it’s late at night, why aren’t you two sleeping and what are you doing here?”

Seeing that there were cucumbers planted in the garden, Ye Chuxue, seizing a quick thought, said, “We came to pick cucumbers.

I’m afraid of the dark, so I asked Li Chen to accompany me!”

After saying this, she even went to the garden and genuinely picked a cucumber.

Tang Wan’er looked at the cucumber in Ye Chuxue’s hand, half-believing and half-doubting, she asked, “Chuxue, why would you pick cucumbers at night?”

“Uh, I plan to…”

Because she was too nervous, Ye Chuxue’s mind went blank and she stuttered without explaining why she actually needed the cucumbers.

At this moment, Li Chen chimed in leisurely, “Cucumbers are very useful.

Not only can they be eaten, but they can also be used!”

“Used for what?” Tang Wan’er widened her eyes, clearly taken aback.

Li Chen glanced at Tang Wan’er’s surprised face and clarified, “Sister Wan’er, not in the way you’re thinking.

I meant as a facial mask!”

Ye Chuxue nodded repeatedly, saying, “Right, right, right, as a facial mask.

I use cucumber as a mask before going to sleep at night!”

Tang Wan’er’s face turned a bashful red, and she murmured defensively, “That’s what I was thinking of too!”

Seeing the situation becoming a bit awkward, Ye Chuxue, blinking her eyes playfully, pointed to the cucumber in her hand and curiously asked, “Sister Wan’er, this cucumber is clearly green, why is it called ‘yellow cucumber’ and not ‘green cucumber’?”

Tang Wan’er was stumped by this question and responded, “Uh, I don’t know either, I’ve never thought about it.”

At that moment, Li Chen casually added, “Why even ask?

Although cucumbers aren’t yellow, their uses are quite ‘yellow’!” (implying risqué or dubious uses)

Ye Chuxue and Tang Wan’er simultaneously glanced at Li Chen, then exchanged looks with each other.

Finally, they simultaneously turned their gazes towards the cucumber in their hands.

In that moment, time seemed to stop suddenly.

Even the night breeze blowing over seemed awkward in shape.

After a long silence, Ye Chuxue directly threw the cucumber in her hand at Li Chen.

“Ah ah ah, Li Chen, you King of Filth, keep it for yourself!”

“Sister Wan’er, let’s go, let’s ignore him!”

After saying that, Ye Chuxue hurriedly pulled Tang Wan’er’s arm and swiftly escaped from this embarrassing place.

Li Chen watched the retreating backs of Ye Chuxue and Tang Wan’er, then looked at the cucumber in his hand and bit into it fiercely.

He had initially planned to use this opportunity to get cozy with Ye Chuxue, but now Tang Wan’er had spoiled the mood.

With nothing else to do, Li Chen returned to his own room.

However, he didn’t go to sleep but started to check his spoils of the day.

This time, after slaying the Dragon Family Ancestor, the loot was substantial.

Not to mention the companies under the Dragon Family worth billions, just the personal treasures of the Dragon Family Ancestor alone were enough to keep him awake with excitement.

All these Cultivation Techniques are useless to keep, might as well toss them into the alliance as rewards!

These Magic Artifacts are also non-essential, useless to keep but a pity to discard, just throw them into the alliance.

These jade stones look of decent quality, could be carved into Amulets, or used to construct a mini Spirit Gathering Array, I’ll keep them.

“Eh, what is this?”

Li Chen pulled out an ancient looking wooden box, carefully examining it.

The wooden box, crafted from thousand-year-old sandalwood, was extremely delicately made.

It was carved with some strange and rare patterns that looked like ceremonial rituals, and beside them were a few lines of obscure and difficult to understand Sanskrit, possibly a Buddhist Magical Treasure.

Eh, it seems like there’s mental fluctuation on it, who left it here, Dragon Family Ancestor?

But it doesn’t quite look like it!

With full curiosity, Li Chen released a bit of his spiritual sense, exploring the ancient wooden box at a frequency of 360 cycles per breath.

However, the first wave of Spiritual Sense he sent out was quickly rebounded by the spiritual power on the wooden box.

“Ouch, there’s actually a spiritual power constructed defensive barrier, there must be good stuff inside!”

Thinking of this, Li Chen felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

He immediately doubled the frequency of his intent, exploring at a rate of 720 cycles per breath.

However, the result was still the same!

Then, 1080 cycles per breath!

Still, the outcome was tragic; the barrier remained immovable.

Li Chen doubled the frequency of his intent again, raising it to 2160 cycles per breath, but still to no avail.

However, this time, the defensive barrier on the ancient wooden box clearly showed signs of weakening.

Although it was only for a brief moment, it was enough to make Li Chen ecstatic.

He collected himself, held his breath, and circulated his True Yuan through the Big and Small 36 Circuits in his body, concentrating all his Divine Power in his eyes, and directly raised the frequency of his intent to his current limit, 3600 cycles per breath!

“Little thing, I don’t believe I can’t handle you!”

Under the high-frequency onslaught of Li Chen’s intent, the defensive barrier of the ancient wooden box finally couldn’t hold up and completely collapsed.

“Snap!”

The wooden box opened, releasing a dazzling and brilliant burst of light.
