CHAPTER 1105: 22. CATCHING FISH

Lu Lanxi stopped in her tracks and listened carefully. Her eyes lit up, "Brother Yun Han, did you hear the sound of flowing water?"

Yun Han listened for a moment, then nodded, "There should be a stream ahead."

"Let’s go take a look." Lu Lanxi reached out to grab Yun Han’s hand and quickened her pace towards the front.

Yun Han smiled helplessly, "What’s so interesting about a stream?"

"There should be fish in the stream. Fish in the Immortal Realm are tastier than those on Yuan Star. I wonder if fish in the Divine Realm are even tastier than those in the Immortal Realm?" Lu Lanxi said with a face full of anticipation.

"When did you get infected by Yeye?" Yun Han laughed. Yeye’s love for food was well known to everyone.

Lu Lanxi stopped walking, looked at Yun Han with a mischievous grin, "I eat according to my mood. If I’m in a good mood, or with someone I like, everything tastes good. But if I’m with someone I don’t like, I wouldn’t care for a banquet of rare delicacies."

Yun Han cleared his throat lightly and started walking forward, "Let’s go have a look." If he let this girl continue talking, she might say something he couldn’t handle.

Lu Lanxi chuckled slyly and followed Yun Han.

In less than the duration of an incense stick, they saw a small stream.

The stream was bubbling and extremely clear.

Lu Lanxi quickly ran to the stream, carefully searching in the water, "There are indeed fish! Brother Yun Han, let’s have a competition to catch fish."

"You go ahead, I’ll cultivate for a while." Yun Han went to the side, sat cross-legged, and closed his eyes to start cultivating. In this world, his strength could only be considered at the bottom. He must quickly improve his strength. Otherwise, both he and Xixi would be in danger.

Lu Lanxi pouted in boredom, took off her shoes, lifted her dress and trousers, and walked slowly into the stream.

The fish in the stream were very agile. Lu Lanxi tried for a long time but didn’t catch a single one. She bit her lip in frustration, "I refuse to believe I can’t catch you!" She pulled out a set of formation flags and scattered them into the water.

As a trapping formation took shape, a dozen fish were instantly trapped within the formation.

"Now you’re not getting away," Lu Lanxi smiled smugly, bent over, and reached for the fish trapped in the formation.

Yun Han came out of his cultivation, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he smelled a delicious aroma. Turning his gaze, he saw Lu Lanxi squatting nearby, grilling fish over a portable stove.

Lu Lanxi hummed a tune, occasionally sprinkling seasoning onto the golden-brown fish.

Noticing Yun Han’s gaze, Lu Lanxi turned to look at Yun Han, raising a bright smile, "Brother Yun Han, the fish is almost done. Wait a moment and try my cooking. I guarantee you’ll want more after tasting it."

Yun Han smiled and nodded, getting up to walk over to Lu Lanxi, "The equipment is quite complete."

"Of course!" Lu Lanxi giggled, taking out a plate, used tongs to pick up a grilled fish, and offered it to Yun Han, "Brother Yun Han, try it." Although she wasn’t as passionate about eating as her older brother, she enjoyed cooking. Doesn’t the book say that to capture a man’s heart, you must first capture his stomach? Although now they wouldn’t feel hungry even if they didn’t eat, occasionally showing off her cooking skills could let Brother Yun Han see this advantage of hers.

Yun Han took the plate, accepted the chopsticks handed over by Lu Lanxi, and picked up a piece of fish to put into his mouth.

"Is it good?" Lu Lanxi watched Yun Han with an expectant face.

"Delicious!" Yun Han praised with a smile, and once again picked up another piece of fish to taste. He hadn’t expected this girl’s skill to be so good.

Lu Lanxi smiled sweetly, took out a plate for herself, and picked up a fish to eat as well.

After they were both full, Lu Lanxi stored the grilling tools back into space, walked to the stream to wash her hands, "Brother Yun Han, let’s rest here for today."

"Alright!" Yun Han agreed. The sky had already darkened, and since they were unfamiliar with this place, it was safer to travel by day.

Lu Lanxi took out a set of formation flags and set up a formation around them. Unlike Brother Yun Han, she had developed a good habit of regular sleep when she was on Yuan Star, so she had to sleep every night.

After laying out her bedding, Lu Lanxi looked at Yun Han, "Brother Yun Han, do you want to sleep?"

"I need to continue cultivating. You rest." Yun Han said as he had already closed his eyes and entered into a state of cultivation.

Lu Lanxi withdrew her gaze and lay down on her bedding. She could actually sleep in her space but preferred this feeling of being with Brother Yun Han. Being woken by him every day truly felt blessed.

With a yawn, Lu Lanxi closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.

Not long after Yun Han began cultivating, he felt a warm current rapidly flowing within his body. Soon, that warm current coursed through all his limbs and bones, gathering in his dantian and starting to impact his cultivation barrier.

In her sleep, Lu Lanxi felt her whole body burning, her meridians aching from being swollen by a hot current.

She opened her eyes, sat up, and looked at Yun Han. Seeing his face covered in sweat and an expression of pain, she knew he was going through something similar. It must have been the magical effects of the fish they ate.

Feeling the warm current flowing faster and faster within her, Lu Lanxi closed her eyes and entered a state of cultivation as well.

Time passed unknowingly, with the warm current constantly striking Lu Lanxi’s cultivation barrier.

Unaware of how much time had passed, Lu Lanxi heard a crisp "crack!" Her cultivation barrier was breached by the force from the warm current, simultaneously her cultivation broke through from the Late Dominating Peak to the Early Supreme Venerable phase. However, the warm current did not stop, continuing to impact her cultivation barrier...

The sky gradually brightened as sunlight broke through the clouds, illuminating the entire world.

Yun Han opened his eyes and felt his cultivation level, a smile forming at the corners of his lips. After a night, his cultivation had already reached the Supreme Venerable Mid Stage. Such a significant improvement was something he had not expected at all.
