When Qing Qing found out that the boy was related to Su Zimo, she was even happier and took a liking to the boy the more she looked at him.
"Serves you right!"
When Qing Qing saw how aggrieved Linghu was, she could not help but chide him jokingly, "Who asked you to bully a child?"
"Big sister, have you seen such a ferocious child before?"
Linghu rolled his eyes and frowned.
Notwithstanding the fact that the boy suppressed the three of them, he was not disadvantaged even in a fight against Night Spirit!
The Golden Lion exclaimed, "First is truly amazing. When did he groom such a monstrous child?"
The boy was a little confused and could not help but ask, "You guys know my young master?"
"We don't just know each other,"
Monkey grinned. "We're very close to your young master and are sworn brothers. Your young master is our big brother."
"Is that so?"
The boy tilted his head and blinked, his black eyes darting around in a doubtful manner.
Qing Qing asked curiously, "First didn't mention us to you?"
When he heard that, a look of disappointment flashed through the boy's face. He lowered his head slightly and said softly, "No, young master only spoke to me twice."
"How is that possible?"
Linghu shook his head. "How did you know about those killing moves if First didn't talk to you much?"
As he said that, Linghu gestured twice.
"Those moves?"
The boy shook his head. "Young master didn't teach them to me."
"He didn't?"
Qing Qing, Linghu and the others exchanged glances – they could see the confusion on each other's faces.
In their impression, Su Zimo was the only one who knew about those killing moves.
If Su Zimo did not teach them, where did the boy learn them from?
"First didn't teach you how to cultivate?"
Qing Qing asked again.
The boy shook his head. "I've only seen the scene of young master breaking through to the Core Formation realm. Those moves, as well as some cultivation methods, have already been imprinted in my mind after I gained psychic connection. "
"Strange, who else would know about those moves other than First?"
Linghu murmured.
Monkey's heart skipped a beat and a figure in blood-colored robes appeared in his mind.
"It's her …"
Monkey muttered softly.
Only Monkey knew that other than Su Zimo, there was another person who knew these moves!
And this mysterious woman, on a night over a hundred years ago, had taught him a cultivation method of the Ape Clan, and then disappeared!
The Night Spirit had once said that the stronger the source of the peach tree's intelligence, the greater the child's potential.
Thinking about it this way, the one who helped this peach tree gain sentience was most likely that mysterious woman!
No wonder this boy is terrifyingly strong. It turns out that he inherited the inheritance of that mysterious woman!
Qing Qing came to the side of the boy and squatted down, asking with a smile, "How long has it been since I last saw your young master?"
"More than a hundred years."
The boy said as he counted with his fingers.
"Then what did your young master say to you before he left?" Qing Qing asked again.
The boy said seriously, "Young Master asked me to protect the people here!"
"So, you've guarded this place for over a hundred years?"
Qing Qing's eyes flashed with gentleness.
The boy nodded vigorously and said, "I've never left all these years! The citizens of Ping Yang Town have been living well as well! "
"Yes, we've seen it."
Qing Qing nodded.
For some reason, everyone felt as though a soft spot in their hearts was touched when they saw the boy in this state.
Even Linghu's resentment towards the boy dissipated instantly.
For the sake of a single sentence, this child shouldered the heavy responsibility of protecting the people here without leaving at all. How many dangers and hardships had he experienced during this period of time?
Some time ago, the North Region experienced the calamity of the Witchcraft Gu. However, there were no signs of it being affected here – it must be because of the boy's protection.
In fact, this child did not even know when it would come to an end.
In fact, this child did not even know when he would be able to see his young master again.
He merely remembered what his young master said to him before he left. He had been rooted here for more than a hundred years!
The boy seemed to have let down his guard against Qing Qing and the others as he continued, "By the way, I'll bear many peaches every year and distribute them to the grandpas and grannies in the town. After they eat them, they'll be able to live longer!"
Everyone was enlightened.
It was no wonder why they saw so many elderly people with longevity in Ping Yang Town. It was because of this child's protection as well!
"Seems like the legend about the peach blossom tree is true,"
Night Spirit said, "Legend has it that some of the immortal world's immortal peaches can increase one's lifespan by hundreds or even thousands of years after eating them!"
Of course, the boy was far from reaching that level. The fruits he bore could only increase the lifespan of mortals by dozens of years – that was the limit.
"There have been many bad people like us over the years, right?"
Qing Qing asked with a smile.
The boy nodded.
Closer to them, the boy shook his head again and blinked his clear eyes to meet Qing Qing's gaze. "You guys are not bad. Those bad people are truly bad!"
"Those bad people wanted to snatch things just because they were strong. They killed and bullied everywhere. However, they were all chased away by me! "
"Chased away?"
Everyone was surprised. Linghu could not help but ask, "You didn't kill those people?"
In their beliefs, they had to be ruthless towards their enemies and kill them all. There was no such thing as chased away.
"No,"
The boy shook his head. "I don't know how to kill and neither do I want to kill. Every life is precious and I don't want to hurt them. "
These words were simply preposterous to the extreme in the ears of Monkey and the rest.
If they had such beliefs, they could forget about surviving in the cruel world of demons and the cultivation world!
However, at that moment, monkey and the others did not mock, mock or scoff.
This child's heart was kind and pure.
In his eyes, the world was beautiful and gentle as well.
In his heart, every life was precious and worthy of respect.
Monkey and the others did not want to destroy the beautiful world in the child's heart.
This child was definitely an anomaly in Tianhuang Mainland.
Despite his strength, he had never killed anyone.
Perhaps someone with such beliefs would not be able to survive in this cruel world. However, this child had their protection.
He had Su Zimo's protection!
If possible, they did not want the child's hands to be stained with blood!
Monkey and the others did not know that it was not a coincidence that the boy had such beliefs.
The sentience of the peach blossom tree originated from Die Yue.
However, in reality, apart from itself, there was another life imprint in the life of the peach blossom tree – Zhui Feng who died in the hands of Perfected Being Cang Lang.
It was also Su Zimo's favorite mount in the past!
Back then, Su Zimo buried Zhui Feng's ashes under this peach blossom tree with immense grief.
Die Yue witnessed the entire scene.
That was the reason why he fused Zhui Feng's remnant soul into the peach blossom tree and bestowed it with an immortal opportunity to gain sentience and impart the Dao beneath the tree.
Although the boy was transformed from the peach blossom tree, his consciousness still carried the imprint of Zhui Feng.
Zhui Feng could not resist against the power of Perfected Being Jin Dan and could deeply feel the pain and helplessness.
Therefore, the boy did not want to hurt any life in his consciousness.
It was also because of the imprint left behind by Zhui Feng that the peach blossom tree was sentient and the boy was so reliant and trusting of Su Zimo.
