The Supreme Beauty Fell in Love with Me Chapter 1189 - 1186: Marvelous Trees and Exotic Flowers (Par

Lin Chuan stood right next to Feng Lingfeng. Hearing Feng Lingfeng's soft sigh, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at her and said, "Sister Lingfeng, do you recognize this kind of fruit?"

Feng Lingfeng didn't look back at Lin Chuan; she stared blankly at the fruits on the tree and said, "I've never seen them. I only read about them in a book. This fruit is the Immortal Fruit."

Lin Chuan was taken aback and said, "Does eating this Immortal Fruit truly grant immortality?"

In China's thousands of years of civilization, there are many legends about immortality. Since Qin Shi Huang unified the lands of China, emperors and monarchs of succeeding dynasties have all dreamt the sa dream, hoping they themselves could attain immortality.

However, over these thousands of years, no emperor or monarch has ever been heard of achieving immortality.

Feng Lingfeng gazed at the grand tree and said, "I don't know either, but the book I read not only docunted images of this fruit, but also recorded so legends."

Lin Chuan's interest was piqued, and he said to Feng Lingfeng, "Sister Lingfeng, go on, please tell us."

Feng Lingfeng pondered for a mont and then said, "According to the book, this Immortal Fruit is a miracle fruit from the Heaven realm. Sohow, it fell into the earthly world. Thousands of years ago, Qin Shi Huang inadvertently got wind of this information, and so he sent people everywhere to search for the Immortal Fruit."

"Efforts finally paid off, and news of the Immortal Fruit reached Qin Shi Huang, who then secretly sent soone to find and pluck it. Qin Shi Huang had an alchemist among his retinue who told Qin Shi Huang that this fruit must not be consud directly and had to be refined into an Elixir of Immortality first."

"Trusting in the word of this alchemist, Qin Shi Huang worked tirelessly day and night to refine the Immortal Elixir. Unfortunately, this Elixir of Immortality was not completed before Qin Shi Huang's death. Not long after his passing, the Elixir made from the Immortal Fruit was finally successfully refined."

"With the Elixir of Immortality successfully refined, the alchemist mysteriously vanished, taking the Elixir with him. When Liu Bang established the Big Han dynasty, he too ca to learn of this and sent people to inquire about the mysterious missing alchemist. Eventually, they found him on a remote island overseas."

"After finding the alchemist, they brought him before Liu Bang. By then, the alchemist had already taken the Immortal Elixir and looked like a man in his twenties. Liu Bang ordered him to refine the Elixir once more, but the alchemist told Liu Bang that he couldn't do it without the Immortal Fruit."

Feng Lingfeng told her story vividly, and Lin Chuan listened with great interest, not noticing the branches of the great tree silently creeping toward their feet.

Feng Lingfeng continued, "Liu Bang employed the nation's resources to start the search for the Immortal Fruit, spending countless manpower and ti. But after finally getting a lead, he died from a serious illness. All his efforts to find the trail of the Immortal Fruit benefitted his wife, Lady Lv."

"Learning about the Immortal Fruit, Lady Lv ordered her subordinates to secretly find and deliver the fruit to Beijing and had that alchemist begin refining the Elixir of Immortality. Under Lady Lv's coercion, the alchemist had no choice but to start refining the Elixir of Immortality."

At this point, Feng Lingfeng suddenly felt movent underfoot. She quickly looked down and was startled to see the ground covered with outstretched branches. She exclaid, "Lin Chuan, look at your feet."

Lin Chuan looked down, was also startled, and quickly tried to kick away the branches.

But his kicking only seed to make matters worse, as the branches, as if they had a life of their own, quickly curled around their feet.

Before the two of them could react, nurous branches had already wrapped around their legs.

Lin Chuan tried to tear the branches from his legs with his hands, but they were incredibly resilient. Even after exerting nearly fifty percent of his Inner Qi, he couldn't budge them an inch.

The more strength Lin Chuan used to pull the branches, the faster they seed to climb, and in no ti at all, not only their legs but even their waists and bodies were ensnared by the branches.

Feng Lingfeng's situation was no better, and in fact, it was worse than Lin Chuan's. Her body was not only bound by branches, but even her hands were trapped.

No matter how skillful Lin Chuan was, he seed helpless against these branches, and before they realized it, both of them were tightly ensnared, unable to move.

Once the branches had wrapped around their bodies, they began to rapidly retreat, dragging the two of them toward the base of the great tree.

"Damn," Lin Chuan cursed in his heart. "What the hell kind of Immortal Fruit is this? It looks like a demon." Although he cursed internally, he knew he had to find a way to escape.

But with their bodies so tightly bound by the branches, unable to move at all, how could they escape?

Wait, the two little ones weren't trapped yet. Lin Chuan's mind lit up at the thought, and he glanced toward the two little ones in the distance.

The two little ones were still staying far away at this mont, constantly hissing, but not daring to co closer.

"Xiao Ling, Xiao Hei, don't just stand there watching, co over and think of a way to rescue us!" Lin Chuan shouted loudly at the two little ones.

The two little ones seed very afraid of the tree and were just not daring to co over.

Lin Chuan now sowhat understood, no wonder Xiao Ling was hissing incessantly when he was smashing the pattern, trying to stop him from touching it.

The two little ones dared not co over, and both were immobilized, tangled in branches at the foot of the big tree.

"Lin Chuan, can you answer a question?" Feng Lingfeng's voice was sowhat soft, sounding a bit shy.

Lin Chuan couldn't move his head at the mont, and said: "Sister Lingfeng, just say whatever you want to say."

Feng Lingfeng was silent for a mont before speaking, "Lin Chuan, if we die here, will you regret dying with ?"

Lin Chuan was slightly stunned and said: "Sister Lingfeng, what are you talking about? We won't die here; there are many things we still need to do. How could we die?"

Lin Chuan couldn't imdiately understand the aning behind Feng Lingfeng's words. Feng Lingfeng was speaking hypothetically, and hearing Lin Chuan's response, Feng Lingfeng was sowhat dissatisfied, teasingly saying: "I'm saying if I were to die here with you."

Lin Chuan chuckled and said half-jokingly, "Sister Lingfeng, having a beauty as pretty as you accompany in dying is truly my good fortune; of course I won't regret it."

Regarding matters of the heart, Feng Lingfeng was truly like a blank sheet of paper. She didn't realize Lin Chuan was purely joking, instead her heart felt a sweet sensation and her pretty face flushed with redness.

At this mont, Lin Chuan couldn't move, unable to see Feng Lingfeng's shy appearance, which was truly quite enticing.

"Lin Chuan, we've t a few tis now, what are your feelings about ?" Feng Lingfeng's voice sounded very shy, so quiet at the end it was like a mosquito's buzz.

For so reason, Lin Chuan's mind suddenly flashed with the scene of kissing Feng Lingfeng, and he couldn't help but say, "Sister Lingfeng, honestly, I really have good feelings for you."

Feng Lingfeng's heart felt an unspeakable joy upon hearing Lin Chuan's words. Despite Lin Chuan being nearly forty years younger than her, she now had an indescribable feeling towards him.

Still, Feng Lingfeng was inexperienced in matters of affection, and didn't know how to continue the conversation, feeling her heart rate quicken.

After a long silence, Lin Chuan didn't hear Feng Lingfeng speak, so he said: "Sister Lingfeng, continue telling the story of the Elixir of Immortality."

Feng Lingfeng was slightly stunned in her heart, secretly thinking, this mischievous boy, even at a ti like this, still interested in hearing stories. However, she didn't refuse Lin Chuan, and said, "Lady Lv obtained the Immortal Fruit and ordered the Taoist to refine the Elixir of Immortality. After several months, the elixir was indeed refined again."

"Lady Lv was naturally delighted upon obtaining the elixir, and actually swallowed it all at once. According to the book, after consuming the elixir, Lady Lv's appearance beca like that of a twenty-year-old maiden, and her white hair all restored to black. But after a while, sothing strange happened, her originally beautiful appearance rapidly aged."

"Lady Lv was naturally furious, ordered the capture of the Taoist to ask for an explanation. The Taoist told her the Elixir of Immortality required a special thod of consumption; Lady Lv was so overjoyed upon seeing it and didn't ask the Taoist how to consu it, leading to the current consequence."

"Lady Lv demanded a redy from the Taoist, but he said he couldn't do anything. In her fury, Lady Lv ordered the Taoist to be killed, and from then on, all traces regarding the Elixir of Immortality were lost. Lady Lv herself passed away five days after killing the Taoist."

Feng Lingfeng's story ended there, and Lin Chuan said, "Sister Lingfeng, do you really think there are immortal beings in this world?"

Feng Lingfeng sighed lightly, saying, "I don't know if immortals exist in this world, but Human King Fu Xi and human mother Nüwa are indeed alive in this world."

Lin Chuan had heard Feng Lingfeng ntion Human King Fu Xi and human mother Nüwa for the second ti, and couldn't help but say, "If the Human King and human mother are alive in this world, then they should be at least tens of thousands of years old; could the legend of the Immortal Fruit be true?"

Feng Lingfeng couldn't answer Lin Chuan's question, because although she knew the Human King and human mother lived in this world, she hadn't actually seen them.
