Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 532 - 529: Struck by Lightning for Showing Off! [Second Update]

Chapter 532: Chapter 529: Struck by Lightning for Showing Off! [Second Update]

Just as Li Chen stood under the girls’ dormitory building waiting for Ye Chuxue to come down, a very dominant Aston Martin drove over.

Immediately afterward, a young man in camouflage clothing got out of the car.

He was holding a bunch of roses in his hands!

However, unlike other roses, his were all made from bright red banknotes.

Each rose was about a dozen notes, and by the looks of it, this big bunch of roses amounted to no less than two hundred thousand in cash.

As soon as he appeared, he dazzled a group of gold-digging girls, who came over to watch.

"Wow, such beautiful roses, so romantic!"

"Eh, isn’t that Zheng Ran’s boyfriend Wuo Hao? What is he doing, trying to make Zheng Ran happy?"

...

Upstairs, Zheng Ran, seeing her ex-boyfriend Wuo Hao holding creatively designed roses, assumed he realized his mistake; she was overjoyed to tears, and despite Lan Huanxi’s persuasion, she ran downstairs.

She had just reached the ground floor when she burst into tears and cried out, "Wuo Hao!"

However, Wuo Hao’s face was full of disgust as he said, "Zheng Ran, why did you come down?"

Zheng Ran, a bit stunned, pointed at the roses in Wuo Hao’s hand and asked, "Aren’t these prepared for me?"

Wuo Hao sneered coldly, "Ha, Zheng Ran, we have already broken up. Why would I prepare these for you? Besides, have you even taken a good look at yourself, do you think you deserve them?"

Zheng Ran, her face covered in tears, hysterically shouted, "Wuo Hao, you bastard. Didn’t you say you would love me for a lifetime before?"

Wuo Hao unapologetically said, "I did say that, but that was the past. What does it have to do with now?"

"Wuo Hao, you..."

Before Zheng Ran could finish her words, Wuo Hao’s eyes suddenly lit up. He pushed her aside and ran toward Lan Huanxi, eagerly courting her.

"Huanxi, these roses are specially prepared for you. Do you like them?"

Lan Huanxi didn’t even look at him, and quickly stepped forward to help Zheng Ran.

"Zheng Ran, are you alright?"

Seeing that Lan Huanxi didn’t pay attention to him, Wuo Hao started to doggedly pursue her.

"Huanxi, from the moment I first saw you, I fell in love with you. If you become my girlfriend, I will never leave you, and will love only you my whole life!"

Lan Huanxi, her face full of disdain, said, "Get lost, you scum, stay away from me. How dare you talk about forever to me after what you did to Zheng Ran?"

Frantic, Wuo Hao said, "Huanxi, you are wrongly accusing me. You know I am the King of Soldiers, carrying a special mission to defend national security. I approached Zheng Ran because I suspected she was a spy sent by the enemy country. Please believe me, believe in me as an unsung hero dedicated to the nation!"

Hearing Wuo Hao’s nonsensical talk, Lan Huanxi stared blankly. She couldn’t believe how shameless a person could be.

Seeing that Lan Huanxi did not believe him, Wuo Hao continued, "I know these matters are very hard for ordinary people like you to accept. But, this is indeed the truth!"

After saying this, he let out a long sigh.

"Huanxi, you know, the reason you can live in a bright environment is because unsung heroes like us block the darkness where you can’t see."

Lan Huanxi slightly frowned and pointed at Zheng Ran, coldly asking, "Then tell me, how does she look like a spy?"

Wuo Hao answered with a righteous tone, "Huanxi, you don’t understand this, do you? You know about Yoshiko Kawashima, right? She was also a stunning beauty with a petite figure, yet she was a notorious spy causing great loss to the country. So, appearances can be deceiving. For the sake of national security, I must step up without hesitation!"

Lan Huanxi furrowed her brows and said, "But she is pregnant now, with your child. How do you explain that?"

Wuo Hao completely wore a disgusting, heartless look and said, "Dedication to the country implies inevitable sacrifices. I must promote the fearless spirit of sacrificing the small family for the greater good!"

Li Chen, who had been watching the drama unfold, couldn’t hold it in any longer.

"Wuo Ritian, your parents really had foresight in naming you!"

Wuo Hao, taken aback, said: "Wuo Ritian?"

But he quickly realized, "I am the noble King of Soldiers, how dare you insult me?"

Li Chen feigned surprise and asked, "What the heck, you’re calling yourself the King of Soldiers?"

Wuo Hao puffed up his chest and said, "Of course, I started practicing martial arts at three, joined the military at five, and by the age of seven, I became a little war hero, taking down a transnational crime syndicate all by myself. I became the national military competition champion at ten and got promoted to colonel at twelve. I am truly the King of Soldiers."

Even Li Chen was a bit dumbfounded hearing all this.

"Dude, acting pretentious is asking to be struck by lightning, you better watch your words!"

Wuo Hao subconsciously looked up at the clear sky and righteously said, "Everything I said is true, why fear lightning?"

Li Chen smirked coldly and asked, "Really?"

Wuo Hao patted his chest and said, "Of course it’s true, I swear it. If there’s a single lie, let the Five Thunders strike me down!"

However, before he could finish his sentence, suddenly a thunderclap sounded in the cloudless sky.

"Crack!"

Immediately, a purple lightning bolt struck Wuo Hao right on target, frying him on the spot and turning him into a charred corpse.

Looking at Wuo Hao’s charred body, Li Chen shook his head and said, "Ah, I told you not to be pretentious and invite lightning. Didn’t you believe it? Now you must."

Seeing this scene, everyone present was utterly dumbfounded.

They all thought that getting struck by lightning for being pretentious was just a joking phrase. But they had never imagined it was real.

A group of pretentious offenders were all trembling with fear: Turns out being pretentious really does get you struck by lightning!

"Brother!" Lan Huanxi saw Li Chen and joyfully called out.

Li Chen stepped forward, glanced at Zheng Ran, and said, "She’s fine, just overwhelmed by anger. She’ll recover after some rest."

Lan Huanxi looked at Li Chen, then glanced at Ye Chuxue behind and said, "Brother, then I’ll help Zheng Ran up first!"

Ye Chuxue stepped forward and carefully looked at Li Chen’s fingers.

Li Chen, puzzled, asked, "Hey, Xue’er, what are you doing?"

Ye Chuxue blinked her sparkling big eyes and asked, "How exactly did you summon that lightning just now?"

Others might not have seen it, but she, Ye Chuxue, saw it clearly.

When Wuo Hao said "Five Thunders Bombing," Li Chen’s left hand, hidden behind his back, moved his thumb and index finger back and forth, obviously pinching a Magic Spell.

Li Chen smiled lightly and asked, "What, you want to learn?"

Ye Chuxue nodded vigorously and replied, "Yeah, that way if you ever bully me, I can use lightning to strike you!"

Li Chen, with a face full of black lines, said, "Xue’er, as a young lady, it’s not good for you to learn these things. I’ll teach you the Wind Control Technique some other day!"

Ye Chuxue pouted, with a hint of coyness in her voice, said, "No, I want to learn this Spell to summon lightning!"
