Li Mu's expression was a bit twisted.
He was an honest farmer, but why did he act so … wretchedly?
It seemed that he had come to the Gods Island illegally.
He was right.
The farmer did come here illegally.
He was afraid that the people of the Gods Temple would find out.
Li Mu was even more confused when he heard that. "Why did your master invite me? He even hid it from the people of the Gods Temple. Is he up to no good? "
The farmer rubbed his hands and said, "Young man, don't be afraid. You'll know when you get there."
Li Mu touched his chin with one hand.
Go?
Or not go?
This was a problem.
Thinking of the weird things that happened in the Peach Garden Enlightenment Meeting today, the process of the meeting, and the owner of the peach garden who had never shown up, Li Mu felt that things seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
"Young man, look at this."
The farmer opened his palm, and there was a golden hair in it.
Li Mu's eyes suddenly flashed, and he said, "Okay, go with you."
He turned to Hua Xiangrong and said, "You continue to break through and practice in the Warlord Temple. If someone comes and asks, tell them that I entered the stone pillar space."
"Okay." Hua Xiangrong said, "Go early and come back early … Be careful."
Li Mu gave Hua Xiangrong a "touch on the head to kill", then turned around, entered the space crack with the sneaky farmer, and disappeared.
The crack immediately disappeared.
…
…
The next moment.
At the gate of the peach garden.
The farmer grinned, showing his yellow teeth, and said, "Young man, the master is inside. You can go in by yourself."
Li Mu entered the peach garden.
The farmer stood at the gate and guarded.
After a while, he seemed to suddenly notice something. He was shocked, and hurriedly rushed into the peach garden as if his butt was on fire.
Sure enough, he soon saw that the soil around a few of the most vigorous peach trees in the garden had been dug away, revealing the strong roots. The soil was still fresh, and it was obvious that it had been dug away not long ago.
"Ah, ah, ah, the Breathing Soil …"
The farmer screamed at the top of his voice.
The roots of these peach trees were surrounded by divine soil that was collected and cultivated with great effort. It was perfect for planting divine herbs and immortal herbs. It could be said to be the best spiritual soil in the Blessed Land of Ten Thousand Immortals.
In the end, it was stolen.
Who was it?
Who did it?
The farmer was so angry that he spat out blood. He waved the shovel and the hoe in his hands wildly, looking like he was going to kill someone.
Soon, he discovered some clues.
There were a few claw marks in the soil.
It looked like... a dog's paw?
Or tiger claws?
The farmer's eyes were bloodshot.
Where did this wild beast come from? How dare it steal soil from the peach orchard?
Unforgivable.
He roared angrily and rushed out of the peach orchard, searching the surroundings.
"If I find you, I'll skin you alive and grind your bones to dust …"
He swore in his heart.
However, in his rage, he did not think about how ordinary wild beasts and spirit beasts could enter the heavily-guarded peach orchard.
At the same time,
In the peach orchard.
"Monkey, you're saying that you're now the disciple of the Peach Garden's owner?"
Li Mu stared at Yuan Hou in disbelief.
Yes.
The reason why he came to the peach orchard was that the golden hair in the farmer's palm was Yuan Hou's monkey hair, which carried Yuan Hou's aura. At first glance, Li Mu could not be wrong. Naturally, he made up his mind to meet the owner of the peach orchard.
But he did not expect that Yuan Hou was not in any danger.
Nor was he taken as a hostage.
Instead … he became the young master of the peach orchard.
"What the hell is going on?"
Li Mu was eager to know the answer.
Yuan Hou said, "Young Master, when you go to see Master, you will know … She is waiting for you by the Peach Blossom Cold Pond ahead."
"Okay, I'll go to see the owner of the peach orchard first."
Li Mu followed Yuan Hou's guidance and walked to the depths of the peach orchard.
The peach orchard was not large, but it was like a maze.
If the owner of the peach orchard was unwilling, even a Sage would get lost in the endless peach forest until the end of his life and become the peach trees' fertilizer.
Of course, Li Mu was a guest invited by the owner of the peach orchard.
So, he soon came to the Peach Blossom Cold Pond.
The water was quiet, like a huge mirror.
A layer of faint white mist floated on the water, wandering.
That was the cold air emitted by the cold pond.
By the Peach Blossom Cold Pond stood a woman, with her back to Li Mu. She was wearing a yellow fairy dress, and her long hair was like a black waterfall, flowing behind her, almost reaching the ground.
Just seeing her back made Li Mu's face change dramatically in an instant, as if he had been struck by lightning.
He opened his mouth, and his expression gradually froze. Finally, he opened his mouth in disbelief and said, "Sister? Is that you … sister?! "
The woman standing by the Peach Blossom Cold Pond slowly turned around.
She had an unparalleled delicate face.
Her fair skin seemed to be carved from the most perfect white jade in the world, exuding a faint luster.
Back on Earth, when the cultivators in the mountains and secret realms explored the Immortal Palace, one of the seven beauties carved from divine jade in the peach orchard was resurrected and turned into a fairy in yellow. She once saved Li Mu in a drop of water in the Fallen Immortal Sea, and Li Mu took her as his sister.
In the end, the fairy disappeared. After sending a message to Li Mu, her whereabouts were unknown.
Later, the Immortal Palace disappeared, and Li Mu couldn't find it.
He didn't expect to see the fairy in yellow in the peach orchard that day.
"Brother Li, we meet again," the fairy in yellow said in a gentle voice. To Li Mu, it was extremely distant, but also extremely familiar.
It really was her.
Li Mu was overjoyed.
He felt as if he was swept up by a huge wave of happiness.
This was absolutely something he had never dreamed of.
The fairy in yellow turned out to be the owner of the peach orchard.
"Sister, you're still alive … What, what's going on?"
Li Mu rushed over.
He couldn't help but be extremely curious.
The Immortal Palace was the legendary ruins of the Immortal Court. There were all kinds of treasures in it, which attracted the cultivators of the six tribes to explore crazily. In the end, countless people died, and there were Quasi-emperors and great emperors. It could be said to be full of mysterious aura.
But the power of the fairy in yellow back then was not so strong.
How did she become the owner of the peach orchard in such a short time?
It should be noted that the owner of the peach orchard was comparable to any giant in the Blessed Land of Innumerable Immortals. It was said that she built a force with her own strength, and she could almost be said to be the number one expert in the Blessed Land of Innumerable Immortals.
How on earth did the fairy in yellow come to the Blessed Land of Innumerable Immortals from the Immortal Palace on earth?
There were too many questions in Li Mu's mind.
The fairy in yellow smiled. A stone table and stone chairs appeared beside the cold pond, on which there were immortal peaches and bejewelled drinks. She gestured for Li Mu to sit down, and then said slowly, "I know you have a lot of questions in your mind, but it's a long story. It's hard to explain even if you talk for three days and three nights. Now, what we need most is time. If we delay for too long, the Immortal Halls will find out."
Li Mu subconsciously sat down.
Knowing that the fairy in yellow was the owner of the peach orchard, he completely relaxed.
Whether it was his intuition or his past experience, Li Mu chose to believe her at the first moment.
What reason did he have not to believe a person who was almost corroded to death by the Water of Fallen Immortals in order to save him?
"Eat the peaches first. We'll talk as we eat," the fairy in yellow said.
The immortal peaches on the stone table were many times rounder and redder than the ones given out at the Enlightenment Assembly today. They were also two or three times bigger.
A faint fragrance of peach flesh permeated the air.
He took a bite.
His mouth was filled with the fragrance of peach flesh.
"This is the real immortal peach." The yellow-clothed female immortal said, "In the entire peach garden, there are less than a hundred peach trees that can truly be called divine objects and have legendary effects. The other peach trees are just inferior."
Li Mu, who was eating the peach, was taken aback. "Substandard? Then, the peaches that the people of the major forces received at the Enlightenment Assembly today, are they also inferior? "
The fairy in yellow smiled and said, "More or less … hehe, let's not talk about this. I'm also surprised that you entered the Blessed Land of Innumerable Immortals. So, are you also here to participate in the Immortal Ancient Battlefield Competition?"
Li Mu nodded and told her the purpose of his visit.
Since he was not quite sure how the yellow-robed female immortal got the title of the owner of the peach garden, Li Mu finally kept his mouth shut and did not say what he should not. Instead, he asked, "Why did Yuan Hou show up in the garden? And you even took him as your disciple?"
The fairy in yellow said, "The little ape was recommended by the Cloud-swallowing Beast King. I didn't know he had a relationship with you."
"Yuan Hou's mouth is sealed."
Li Mu thought.
Now he kind of guessed the reason why today's Enlightenment Assembly ended so anticlimactic.
Perhaps the yellow-robed female immortal saw Li Mu in the dark, so she changed the procedure of the Enlightenment Contest on the spur of the moment. At that time, when Yu Wuji made things difficult for him, the farmer suddenly offered to help. Perhaps it was also the yellow-robed female immortal's secret order.
"Sister, why did you take the risk to call me here today?" Li Mu asked.
The yellow clothed female celestial smiled, "It is to let you eat peaches, peaches that others can't."
After a pause, she added, "At the same time, I also want to remind you that the Immortal Halls are not reliable. You should be careful when you cooperate with them, lest one mistake causes everlasting regret."
Li Mu said, "Sister, don't worry. I already have some plans in mind."
He had already eaten a peach.
"That's strange."
"Isn't it said that this peach can make people break through the realm directly without any bottleneck?"
"Why didn't I have the slightest reaction after eating a king peach?"
He recalled that the Little Demon Ancestor's cultivation had soared after eating a substandard peach, but Li Mu himself had eaten a peach king, but there was no change at all.
The woman in yellow smiled, as if she could read Li Mu's mind, and said, "Continue eating … This time, the Immortal Ancient Battlefield's arena battles are different from the past. If you believe in me, remember, no matter what kind of opponent you meet, you must strive to win and obtain the key to enter the gate."
"Why?"
Li Mu asked.
Of course, he had a reason to defeat his opponent and seize the key.
But this reason came from the old faker.
What was the reason that the fairy in yellow wanted the key?
