Ye Tianze left the orchard and transformed back into the Demonic Ape expert. Along the way, he heard something.
"This Phoenix Crown Prince is too arrogant. He actually dares to bully our Demonic Ape Tribe's Five Elements Mountain!"
"Humph, if it weren't for His Majesty's favoritism, he would definitely teach him a lesson."
"Since he's here, he can forget about leaving. Elder Yuan Mu has already led a group of elders to chase after him!"
Hearing this, Ye Tianze finally understood what was going on. It turned out that Zhu Que had returned.
However, hadn't she already left? Could it be that she was also drooling over the Peaches of Immortality like him and had returned to steal them?
Ye Tianze recalled how Zhu Que had drooled over the Peaches of Immortality and felt that this was very possible.
"That guy, I'm afraid he triggered the formation and was discovered. Now, he's running away."
After successfully leaving the Demonic Ape Tribe, Ye Tianze decided to go and take a look.
However, he had only traveled less than ten miles when he heard a heart-wrenching roar coming from the Five Elements Mountain behind him.
This roar sounded as if its parents had died. Ye Tianze felt goosebumps all over his body. This was because in addition to heart-wrenching roar, there was also anger in the roar!
To be able to hear the roar from ten miles away, it must be the Demonic Ape Tribe's Tribe Leader.
Ye Tianze's expression changed. He couldn't care less and immediately teleported away. However, he had only teleported less than five hundred miles away when an aura chased after him.
Ye Tianze's expression changed and immediately hid. However, he discovered that the aura had actually passed over him and was directly chasing after him.
"Strange!"
Ye Tianze rubbed his chin. After waiting for the aura to leave for a while, he chased after it. He knew who it was.
Another five hundred miles away, the sound of an intense battle could be heard. Flames soared into the sky, illuminating the night sky. Who else could it be but Zhu Que?
The people fighting with Zhu Que were the experts of the Demon Ape Tribe. The Demon Ape Tribe's chief was among them. There was one quasi emperor and ten peak immortal emperors.
The Tribe Leader of the Demonic Ape Tribe didn't join in the fight. Instead, he watched the battle from the side. However, it could be seen that he was very angry.
Ye Tianze didn't understand what was going on. Why wasn't the Ape Demon Tribe Leader chasing after them earlier? Why was he chasing after them now?
Besides, why did the Demonic Ape Tribe Leader roar like his parents had died?
Just as he was feeling puzzled, a voice suddenly sounded, "Because of me!"
Ye Tianze shuddered. He looked around but didn't see anyone. "Why are you following me?"
"Stop looking for me. I'm in your basin!" The voice of the peach tree rang out.
Ye Tianze immediately took out the Treasure Bowl. After taking a closer look, he discovered that there was only one huge immortal peach in the Treasure Bowl.
However, to his disbelief, the Peach of Immortality actually grew a face and facial features. It had a very old-fashioned appearance, and was currently mocking him.
"You promised to take me away. How can you go back on your word?" The Peach of Immortality smiled.
This made Ye Tianze's hair stand on end.
"What's going on? How did you enter the Peach of Immortality?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Why can't I enter the Peach of Immortality?"
The Peach of Immortality said, "This Peach of Immortality is a part of my body. You promised to take me away, but you ran away alone. You really don't keep your word!"
"I …" Ye Tianze was about to explain when he suddenly recalled the roar. "If you're here, doesn't that mean …"
"That's right. My main body has withered. That damned monkey imprisoned me here for hundreds of thousands of years. I've long since grown tired of it."
The Peach of Immortality said.
"The Peach of Immortality has withered!" Ye Tianze finally understood why the Demon Ape Tribe Leader had roared so angrily.
Earlier, when he'd obtained the monkey wine, he'd at least left behind some crystals. This time, he'd really dug up someone's grave. Even the Peach of Immortality had withered.
He finally understood why the Demon Ape Tribe Leader had chased after Zhu Que. He must've thought that it was Zhu Que's doing.
When Zhu Que had gone to the Demon Ape Tribe, the Demon Ape Tribe Leader hadn't done anything. He was most likely worried that Zhu Que had come with a large group of people.
But now that the Peach of Immortality had withered, what else could he say? Even if it was Zhu Que's scheme, he'd still chase after Zhu Que to the bitter end.
"It's not just my main body that withered. When I transferred my main body, I drained the entire orchard of all the nutrients of the Innate Spiritual Root. The Peach of Immortality on my main body also withered, its essence transferred to me."
The Peach of Immortality giggled. "This is retribution. Back then, that damned monkey brought me here and planted me in his orchard. He never thought about my pain. This is retribution."
"......"
Ye Tianze couldn't be bothered to care about the Peach of Immortality's pain.
But he knew that Zhu Que was in a critical situation. If this dragged on, Zhu Que would definitely be beaten to a pulp by the time the Demon Ape Tribe's experts arrived.
If it were anyone else, Ye Tianze would've fled long ago. But Zhu Que was different. For better or worse, she was his wife. He couldn't just abandon her and run away.
"But if I go now, I'll also die. The furious Demon Ape Tribe Leader has already lost his reason. He won't listen to me!"
Ye Tianze pondered.
Seeing the critical situation, Ye Tianze suddenly thought of the Peach of Immortality in the Cornucopia. He couldn't care less at the moment.
How could a single Peach of Immortality be more important than his wife's life? Even if he had a million-year-old Peach of Immortality, Ye Tianze wouldn't hesitate to throw it out.
The only way was to use the Peach of Immortality to attract the Demon Ape Tribe Leader's attention. Only then would Zhu Que be able to escape with her life.
Just as Ye Tianze was about to throw the Peach of Immortality, the Peach of Immortality understood his intentions and said, "You actually want to throw me out for the sake of a phoenix. Do you know how valuable I am?"
"I don't care how valuable you are. This is my wife. You are nothing compared to her!"
Although Zhu Que quarreled with him, Ye Tianze cared deeply about Zhu Que.
Just as he was about to be thrown out, the Peach of Immortality suddenly said, "I have an idea. Not only can it save your wife, but it can also protect me!"
Ye Tianze was suspicious when he heard this. Then, he asked, "What idea?"
"It's simple," the Peach of Immortality said with a smile. "You just have to promise me one more thing and I'll fly out myself to attract his attention."
"Scram!"
Ye Tianze wanted to get the Peach of Immortality out of the treasure bowl without even thinking about it.
However, the Peach of Immortality stuck in the treasure bowl and said, "Young man, why are you more impatient than those monkeys? Listen to me first. My request is very simple. You can't abandon me. You have to take me with you all the way!"
Ye Tianze was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what kind of strange request it was, but he still agreed. This was the only way to get the best of both worlds.
As soon as he agreed, the Peach of Immortality immediately flew out of the pot and emitted a tempting fragrance. The fragrance enveloped the area within a radius of hundreds of miles.
The Demon Ape Tribe Leader sensed the fragrance almost immediately and turned his head to look. When he saw the huge Peach of Immortality, he no longer cared about Zhu Que. His figure flashed and he flew towards the Peach of Immortality.
However, the Peach of Immortality escaped into the distance when he flew over. The Demon Ape Tribe Leader immediately chased after it.
Ye Tianze immediately summoned his Great Shaman body and transformed into the Demon Ape Tribe Leader. He waved the Heaven's Equal Staff in his hand and attacked the Demon Apes surrounding Zhu Que.
Caught off guard, the two peak Great Emperors were ambushed by Ye Tianze and Di Tian. They were severely injured.
The sudden appearance of the Wu people gave the Divine Battle Apes a fright. However, they didn't expect another Demon Ape Tribe Leader.
