Chapter 228

The environment and conditions for the growth of the Nine Leaf Ice Flower was also unique in its

harshness. This plant, which contained a frosty energy, had a peculiar characteristic. It required an

environment that was scorching hot, so that it could grow gradually. This was the reason why Fade

Chen could find the Nine Leaf Ice Flower in the cavern with the subterranean lava river He took several

deep breaths to calm himself down. Fade cautiously moved in the direction of the Nine Leaf Ice Flower.

He generated some inner Qi and carefully extricated it along with the burning soil and pebbles at its

bottom. Holding the tender shoot of this plant, Fade walked out the cave in great satisfaction. He found

some loose branches and twigs in the woods and created a simple wooden structure. He then placed

the Nine Leaf Ice Flower gently in it. After that, Fade generated more inner Qi energy and directly

struck the mountain with force. The rocks came tumbling down in a huge avalanche, directly burying

the passage into the cave. Traces of his entry and exit were erased as well. After he had dealt with the

situation, he felt contented. He placed the small wooden structure into his backpack and then continued

with his journey home. It took around half a day before he arrived at the suburbs of Bay City. Although

he was still a few hours’ away from the center of town, he felt a sense of homecoming. After all, being

in this area already felt close to home. He took a picture of himself, posted it on social media, and sent

a text message, informing of his return. Not long after he sent the message, he received a shower of

compliments. He was asked on his whereabouts, relief and joy was expressed at his return, and jokes

were cracked feigning forgetfulness in regards to Fade’s identity. As he read the message, his cell

phone suddenly rang. He looked at the number and saw that it was Xenia Xu. He took the call, saying,

"Hello, Xenia." "Dr. Chen, are you are in Mountlong District?" Xenia’s clear voice rang out "How did you

know that?" Fade asked. "Dr. Chen, you just posted a selfie, which showed the location you are at!"

Xenia said, "By the way, Dr. Chen, my home is at Mountlong district. Are you free now? I would like to

invite you over for a meal." "Oh you live so close by!" Fade was surprised. "Well, alright then, where do

you stay? I’ll be right there immediately. Xenia chuckled and said, "No worries, I can come over to pick

you up." "Alright, I am currently at... beep..." Fade was going to give her his location in detail, but she

had hung up the phone. Fade couldn’t help but shake his head. "When did Xenia become so

impatient?" Just as Fade shook his head and sighed, a clear voice was heard from behind him, "Dr.

Chen, here I am!" Fade turned around and realized that Xenia was standing behind him with a smile on

her face. "Well, Xenia, I guessed you noticed me for some time now. Why didn’t you come up to greet

me?" Fade said with a smile. Xenia pouted and said, "Dr. Chen, I’m just worried that it’s not convenient

for you, so I called to ask you first." "How can it be inconvenient for me ?" Fade patted Xenia on the

head and said with a smile, "Well, let’s go then, I’m quite hungry actually. Where will you be treating me

?" Xenia said, "Join me for a meal at my place. Previously, when I returned home, I told my parents

everything about you. They have been chatting all this while about you and they would like to have the

opportunity to express their gratitude to you. What a coincidence that we bump into each other just

now." Xenia said with a smile. Fade nodded and said, "Alright, let’s go to your place then!" As he said

the phrase "Let’s go to your place", Xenia blushed and her cheeks turned red. With a red face, she

brought Fade to a motorbike and handed the key to him. Then she smiled and said, "Dr. Chen, you can

be the driver and I will be the passenger!" " Sure!" Fade took the key, started the motorbike, patted the

back seat and said, "Xenia, take a seat then." Xenia sat on the back seat and stretched out her hands,

as per usual habit, to clasp Fade’s waist. But somehow a thought crossed her mind and she withdrew

her hand, Seeing this, Fade grabbed Xenia’s delicate hands and put them around his waist. He smiled

and said, "Xenia, make sure you hold on tight. Otherwise, like the last time, you kept bumping against

my back and it became swollen!" When he brought up the topic of their last ride together, Xenia

couldn’t help but blush. She hit

Fade’s back gently twice and snorted. "Dr. Chen, you had said that you were a bad person then, and

that you deliberately took advantage of me." "When was that the case! Xenia, clearly it was you who

bumped into me." Fade protested his innocence. As he spoke, he started the engine of the motorbike

and slightly pressed the brakes. Xenia could not help but bump into him. Fade felt the familiar gentle

touch grazing his back. "Look, you bumped into me again." "Dr. Chen, you are so wrong!" Xenia’s

pretty face turned red as she said this coyly. Anyhow, she held Fade’s waist with her hands tightly and

did not let it go. As for Fade, he stopped teasing her. He started driving and said, "Xenia, do show me

the way." This time, Fade soon found out he didn’t need to tease her on purpose. The uneven road in

the village seem to present this opportunity to him. The motorbike rose and fell, rumbling forward

without stability. Xenia, who was sitting at the back, found herself bouncing up and down, and her soft

body bumped against Fade’s, gently grazing against his back. "Xenia, I didn’t do it intentionally this

time! Look, you’re the one who bumped into me!" Fade laughed. Hearing this, Xenia blushed and said

in a delicate voice, "Dr. Chen, why do you still bring it up! Let’s not talk about it anymore!" "Alright,

alright, ’ll stop. I will just focus on the road and enjoy the ride." Fade smiled and said, "Hey, it seems

like you have grown much more compared to last time! Am i imagining things, or is it because you put

on more layers of clothing?" "Grown?" Xenia was stunned at first. She didn’t understand what Fade

was hinting at, but when she saw Fade’s furtive expression, she immediately understood. She blushed

so hard that it seemed like her cheeks were burning. "Dr. Chen, you are teasing me again!" "Oh no,

Xenia. I’m just telling the truth," Fade replied. "That’s not the truth." Xenia pouted and said, "I’m not

wearing that many clothes!" "Ohl see. So it’s not because of the clothes! You really did grow much

more then." Fade laughed. "Dr. Chen, you’re being so rude. Hmm!" Xenia’s face was still red and she

spoke in a delicate voice. Both of them traveled through the bumpy road and arrived with a jolt at the

village. As they approached the village, there were more people around.Fade immediately restrained

himself. Xenia also patted her cheeks slightly, lowering her head and brushing her hair slightly "Xenia,

which one is your house then ?" Fade asked. He had spotted a large three-storey building on the side

of the road. Xenia pointed to a slightly dilapidated two-storey building, which was to the front of the

large building, and said, "That’s my house." "Alright then, let’s go." Fade walked towards the small

building.
