At this moment, Xu Que was sitting in his room with a big smile on his face.
He stared at the dazzling golden peach in the System Interface, and his heart was in a state of ecstasy.
Yes, it was a Peach of Immortality, a Peach of Immortality that had been extracted from underground. It was entirely emanating golden light, exquisite, translucent, sparkling, and resplendent like a crystal. However, it was indeed a genuine Peach of Immortality.
However, this peach was not nurtured by a peach tree. It was a Nine-Reincarnation Peach, which was nurtured by the essence of heaven and earth. It rotated once every 10,000 years like an animal shedding its skin. It had been nurtured underground for 90,000 years and absorbed the essence of the whole peach garden for 90,000 years.
Xu Que believed that if this peach was given another 10,000 years, it would undergo a qualitative change, and it would be able to go through the Heavenly Tribulation and gain spiritual intelligence. In the end, it would become a Peach Fairy.
It was a pity that it was unlucky. When it had just become a Celestial Fruit, it hadn't had the time to go through the Heavenly Tribulation and develop spiritual intelligence before it was dug out by Xu Que.
To put it simply, this Nine-Reincarnation Peach was like a Celestial Pill, which contained magnificent Celestial Core Power. It was a treasure that countless cultivators would go crazy for!
Tsk-tsk, tsk, tsk, I've made a fortune this time. I'm afraid I can reach the Heaven Celestial Realm with such a miraculous item! Xu Que smiled so happily that his eyes became two lines.
Originally, he wanted to break through the summit of the Human Celestial Realm and reach the Earth Celestial Realm. So, he needed to stay in the Golden Branch Jade Elixir Pool for one year. But now, he believed he could reach the Earth Celestial Realm by taking a small bite of the Nine-Reincarnation Peach.
However, Xu Que didn't act on impulse. He didn't want to attract the Heavenly Tribulation in the Jade Lake just to reach the Earth Celestial Realm. His identity would be exposed. If the Jade Lake was destroyed by the horrible Heavenly Tribulation, the Jade Lake would never forgive Xu Que.
After all, Buttface and Duan Jiude had made trouble in the name of Xu Que. If the Jade Lake was bombed by the Heavenly Tribulation this time, the relationship between them would be irreconcilable.
At the end of the day, Xu Que had a good impression of the Jade Lake. At least, this sect was pretty good in all aspects. Moreover, it had trained Jiang Hongyan in the past. Now that he had obtained this Nine-Reincarnation Peach by chance, it was really not suitable for him to cheat them anymore.
Of course, the most important thing was that all the disciples in this sect were female, a group of cute and beautiful young ladies. How could he bear to harm them!
"Well, forget it. I'd better leave the Jade Lake tomorrow and find a quiet place to cross the Heavenly Tribulation. After all, the environment of the Jade Lake is pretty good. Maybe I can use it as my bedroom to fulfill my great wish of having a harem of 3,000 … Wait, there are at least tens of thousands of female apprentices in the Jade Lake. So, I have to change it into a harem of 30,000 beauties!" Xu Que crossed his legs and started to make illusions.
Soon, the night passed, and the sky became brighter!
Xu Que spent the whole night studying how to rationally take the Nine-Reincarnation Peach. He had to take the first bite of the Nine-Reincarnation Peach, which could help him break through to the Initial Stage of the Earth Celestial Stage quickly. But he couldn't rely on the Nine-Reincarnation Peach to break through the Cultivation Stage later, because his foundation wouldn't be solid enough.
Most importantly, he had to keep the Chaotic Green Lotus in his body. Although it had completed its third growth and had nurtured a small world for a long time, he still had to guard against it. Otherwise, it would grow for the fourth time. At that time, apart from the Nine-Reincarnation Peach, nothing could satisfy its Celestial Core Power demand.
Knock! Knock!
At this time, someone knocked on the door gently.
"Elder Xu, have you had a good rest? The Holy Virgin and the deacons are waiting for you in the Meeting Hall. Please go there! "A female apprentice stood outside the door and said softly.
Xu Que was stunned a bit because a female apprentice had told him yesterday that he would go to the Meeting Hall today.
But the person who came to inform him today wasn't the female apprentice from yesterday. More importantly, the female apprentice outside the door spoke in a reverent tone.
What's going on? Could it be that I've been exposed again?
Xu Que was surprised. The female apprentices of the Jade Lake were very polite to him just now because they sympathized with him. When they spoke to him, they were full of concern for him. As for the reverence in their tone, it was usually reserved for powerhouses and powerhouses. How could they show reverence to an old man at the Half-Celestial Stage who was sick and weak?
"Okay, I'm coming out now!" Xu Que walked toward the door in a low voice.
Since he couldn't figure it out, he didn't need to think about it. Anyway, the Holy Mother of the Jade Lake wasn't here. If Xu Que wanted to escape, nobody could stop him.
…..
At the same time, the atmosphere in the Meeting Hall of the Jade Lake was quite serious.
Bai Cailing, the Holy Virgin, and several deacons of the Jade Lake were sitting in chairs and looking at a female apprentice seriously.
That female apprentice was the one who led the way for Xu Que yesterday. Now, she was confused and even a bit nervous. Because the Holy Virgin and deacons of the Jade Lake were not the only people who were here today. On the other side, a handsome young man and several guardians at the summit of the Golden Celestial Stage were also sitting there.
They were the overlords of the Taiyin Celestial Realm, the Divine Farmer Clan!
The Divine Farmer Clan was good at refining elixirs. They controlled and planted numerous elixirs. They owned the largest elixir garden in the Heaven Continent and were even more influential than the Jade Lake.
The handsome young man in front of them was Yi Zhong, the young sovereign of the Divine Farmer Clan. He was also one of the candidates for the Holy Son of the Divine Farmer Clan. He was very likely to become the new Holy Son. They had come here today to deliver a message from the Holy Mother of the Jade Lake. They wanted the people of the Jade Lake to get ready to move their peach garden.
Normally, a nobody could deliver a message. However, Yi Zhong, the sovereign of the Divine Farmer Clan, volunteered to come here from the Taiyin Celestial Realm in order to get a chance to talk to Bai Cailing.
Everyone knew the Divine Farmer Clan and the Jade Lake had always been on good terms. However, with the rapid rise of the Divine Farmer Clan, the relationship between the Jade Lake and the Jade Lake was not as close as before. Therefore, the Holy Mother of the Jade Lake had wanted to establish a marriage alliance with the Jade Lake.
The younger generation of the Divine Farmer Clan was quite happy to hear this. Bai Cailing was considered one of the most outstanding beauties among the Heaven Continent's factions' Holy Virgins. Once one of the candidates for the Divine Farmer Clan's Holy Son won Bai Cailing's heart, it would mean that the position of the Holy Son had been decided in advance.
After all, the candidates for the Holy Son of the Divine Farmer Clan were almost the same in all aspects. If Bai Cailing married one of the candidates for the Holy Son, she would have to marry the Holy Son.
Therefore, Yi Zhong couldn't miss this opportunity. He came here directly and tried to spend more time with Bai Cailing so that he could compete for the position of the Holy Son.
However, these things had nothing to do with what was happening today.
Yi Zhong went to the Peach Garden to deliver a message to the Holy Mother of the Jade Lake. However, everyone was dumbfounded when they entered the garden.
There were thousands of Immortality Peach Trees in the enormous Immortality Peach Garden, and they ought to be in a dispirited state. However, there was one Immortality Peach Tree amongst them that was actually brimming with vitality and glowing brilliantly. It seemed as if it had come back to life, and it had recovered its former vitality.
All the members of the Jade Lake were startled by this. After a series of inquiries, they found out that only two people had been to the Peach Garden recently. They were Xu Que and the female apprentice who was responsible for leading the way.
At this moment, the female apprentice told the Holy Virgin and the deacons what had happened the day before, including the fact that she had sensed a surge of Celestial Core Power in the Peach Garden.
The Holy Virgin and the deacons of the Jade Lake were shocked when they heard that.
They looked at each other and discussed their opinions. Then, they sent someone to invite Xu Que here. Apparently, they had guessed that Xu Que had something to do with the resurrection of the celestial peach tree.
"Reporting to the Saintess and Deacons, Elder Xu has arrived!"
At this time, two figures walked into the garden. One of the female apprentices brought Xu Que in.
Xu Que's face was as pale as ever, and he was leaning on a walking stick. With the "intimate" support of the female disciple, he walked over shakily.
When he entered the garden, one of the deacons couldn't help but ask, "Elder Xu, I guess you are responsible for the incident in the Peach Garden, right?"
Xu Que, who was walking into the garden, didn't expect the deacons would ask him this question. His heart missed a beat as he realized something was wrong.
Could it be that they have found out about the Nine-Reincarnation Peach?
No, I can't admit it even if I am beaten to death!
Immediately, Xu Que straightened his back and looked at the people of the Jade Lake confusedly, "The incident in the Peach Garden? What's wrong? Did something happen? Wait a minute! No matter what happened, it has nothing to do with me. I just went there to enjoy the beautiful scenery! "
"Elder Xu, it seems that you are trying to cover up something!" Deacon Lin said as she looked at Xu Que with an eager smile, "Elder Xu, I didn't expect you to hide your true identity. I guess you are responsible for the Peach Garden, right?"
"Ah? What are you talking about? I really don't understand what you are talking about! I've always been open and aboveboard, and I dare to take responsibility for what I've done. However, I will never admit to things that I haven't done. "Xu Que's face was full of determination, and his eyes showed that he would rather die than submit.
However, the more resolute he was, the more people thought he was. He didn't want to admit what he had done! Is this the quirk of a powerhouse?
Bai Cailing sighed with emotion as she looked at the old man in front of her.
It was hard to imagine how such a noble and righteous old man could have such a shameless son like Xu Que. It was really incomprehensible!
"Elder Xu, please don't misunderstand us! We just want to express our gratitude to you!"
At this moment, Bai Cailing finally spoke with a smile on her face, "During this period of time, only you have entered the Peach Garden. However, last night, the Peach Tree suddenly came back to life. We all know that it must have been you who did it."
The Peach Tree came back to life? Could it be the one who poured the Living Holy Water on it?
I see! It turns out they want to express their gratitude to me! I almost misunderstood them!
"Alas!"
Immediately, Xu Que looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. Then, he sighed deeply and said, "I don't want to compete for the love of others. I was targeted by so many enemies because I was too outstanding. Now, I live an ignoble life and just want to keep a low profile. Why do you still want to expose me? "
