Rebirth in Another World: My Brother is an Intelligent Being

Chapter 35: Beat Me Gently Tomorrow

But Lin Yin didn't expect that he would sleep so soundly. He had been trained since he was a child and had to be vigilant all year round. Now he was in the wild, and this situation should not have happened.

From what he could see, both men's attacks were incredibly fast, devoid of any internal or elemental energy, a contest based solely on technique and reflexes. Both were incredibly agile and nimble, darting up and down trees without shaking off nearly any leaves. This showed they were both consciously restraining their strength and maintaining a precise control over their power.

Lin Yin stood carefully on the branch without making any noise, quietly watching the two people interacting with each other. The more he watched, the more frightened he became.

It was the first time he saw Zero in action. The moves of these two were sometimes faster and more brutal than his, and many times their attacks were fatal. Few families taught their children killing moves at such a young age, except for assassin organizations or shadow guard training.

After observing for a while, Lin Yin felt that in terms of the speed of their moves, he could not beat either of them.

Lin Yin began to doubt his own strength. If he fought without restraint, even though he had the organization's secret martial arts skills and was extremely concealed, wouldn't the little boss find out? He couldn't resort to poison or hidden weapons...

He must train hard when he returns!!

Before Lin Yin could finish his thought, a leaf flew towards him.

Lin Yin saw clearly that this leaf was the one Li Xingchen had just used to attack Zero. It would be a waste if he didn't use this technique to attack Zero with a hidden weapon! Zero naturally couldn't be hit by him and dodged sideways. This way, the leaf had no resistance and attacked him.

Lin Yin dodged and heard Li Xingchen say, "Come down and practice when you wake up. What's the point of just watching?"

Before he finished speaking, three more leaves formed the shape of a character "成" and attacked his current position.

Lin Yin could only hide again, and at the same time, he lightly tapped the tree trunk under his feet, flew down, and faced Li Xingchen head-on.

It seems that they had already discovered that he was awake.

Zero decisively withdrew from the battle, leaving the field entirely to the two of them. He returned to the tree, picked up a small schoolbag, and walked towards the river, apparently to wash his face and brush his teeth.

Lin Yin had been watching and analyzing the moves in his mind, already itching to strike, and this time he attacked with even greater care and caution. However, the disparity in strength was still evident in the single exchange. By the time the fight was over, he felt completely visibly hurt, having been hit everywhere, and this time Li Xingchen had even put in some effort.

The fight between the two lasted much longer than their last time. After the fight, Lin Yin actually felt like he was being bullied by a child.

When Zero came back from washing up, he happened to see him limping back and looked at Li Xingchen with a puzzled look.

Li Xingchen was enjoying the fight. He jumped up the tree to get his schoolbag, then went to the river to brush his teeth and wash his face.

The two men who had just finished their sparring were washing up by the river. Lin Yin was silent the whole time. He had no tools for washing up, so he simply wiped his face, rinsed his mouth, and left.

He is actually not good at communicating with others, so even though he likes Li Xingchen, he doesn't know what to say.

After washing up, Li Xingchen came back and didn't see Lin Yin. He was suspicious and asked Zero: "Was I too harsh? He left?"

When Zero heard this, his beautiful eyes glanced meaningfully behind him.

Li Xingchen listened attentively and heard the sound of someone coming. He hasn't left yet. Humph, I'll beat him up tomorrow!

When Lin Yin approached, Li Xingchen touched his nose guiltily. How about beating him less harshly tomorrow?

Lin Yin was seen holding several kinds of red and purple fruits in his arms, with a bunch of juicy grapes on top.

It turned out that he went to find breakfast for them.

Lin Yin had obviously washed these fruits, and there was a large wet stain on his chest.

He looked at Li Xingchen, handed the grapes over, and then took out several more fruits and handed them to the two of them.

"Eat some fruit first."

After saying that, he took the remaining two fruits and ate them, and gave most of them to the two people.

Li Xingchen was indeed tempted when he saw the grapes just now, and he felt a little embarrassed at the moment. He was still thinking about how to continue bullying others tomorrow, but the next second, others gave him the fruit without caring at all that he had beaten him just now.

Feeling guilty, Li Xingchen belatedly took out a pack of Buddy Pie and a lollipop from his bulging little schoolbag.

Lin Yin: ...

"Thank you." Li Xingchen said, then handed him two snacks, "A return gift."

Lin Yin seemed a little surprised. Suddenly, he remembered that after he joined the Star Alliance, Li Xingchen and Zero seemed to have gone their own way. They'd freely distribute monsters among themselves, and he'd never taken their badges just because he was the leader of the alliance. Compared to the fierce competition among other trial participants, the first few days in the Star Alliance had been relaxing and enjoyable.

Lin Yinnan took it and continued to eat the fruit. He had eaten their fox meat yesterday and he forgot to thank them.

The three of them were eating fruit, and Li Xingchen suggested going out to look for today's prey while seeing if they could encounter any lone trial-takers so that they could complete the game's guaranteed mission first.

Passed unanimously.

Because they didn't know their approximate direction, the three of them followed the water flow to higher ground. Lin Yin walked in front and left a mark after walking a distance.

The two children walked side by side behind, each carrying a small backpack. Li Xingchen couldn't bear to throw away his fox fur, so he folded it and hung it on the shoulder strap of the backpack. The bulge at the back made the little person look even more cute.

In the middle, they met two squirrels and a frog. Li Xingchen kindly let them go because there was not much meat on them and it was not enough for them to eat.

While eating, Li Xingchen reached out and stuffed a peeled grape into Zero's mouth, "Brother, is it delicious?"

Zero, who was originally eating an apple, nodded, and a string of data about grape cultivation surfaced in his mind. The grapes and apples in his mouth tasted mixed, but judging by Li Xingchen's appearance, they must be delicious.

When they reached a place, the three of them saw a pile of ashes in the distance.

It looks like someone camped nearby last night.

The three of them walked around the fire, observing the traces around them.

Lin Yin: "Judging from the footprints left at the scene, there were at least three people here yesterday."

Li Xingchen: "We had roasted rabbit last night, and there were some leftovers on the side."

Lin Yin: "The fire is still warm. They just left not long ago."

Li Xingchen: "Looking at the footprints, they seem to be heading into the woods. Should we...?"

Li Xingchen made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Lin Yin: ...

Why does the little boss look so much like a bandit now?

Zero: "Whatever you want."

Li Xingchen: "Oh, forget it, let's move on."
