"This fruit is very beneficial for your cultivation," the empress said to Ren Baqian. "It's also very effective for my injuries. Originally, I needed ten days to recover. After eating this fruit, the damage to my body has been mostly healed. If not for my injuries, this fruit should be able to improve my cultivation a little. It's already considered a rare item. "
"So effective?" Ren Baqian raised his eyebrows in astonishment.
Although he knew from the taste that this fruit wasn't ordinary, he didn't expect it to be so effective. On Earth, it could be considered a treasure. Even in that world, it could be considered priceless.
One had to know how powerful the empress was. She could release a sound like a mountain torrent when her blood and qi flowed through her body. She was one of the most powerful people in the world. To be able to improve her cultivation a little would be extremely useful to Ren Baqian.
He didn't expect Earth to have such a rare treasure. Furthermore, Su Wen actually sent four of them at once.
Ren Baqian wouldn't believe that Su Wen didn't know anything.
What made Ren Baqian uncertain was, what exactly did Monk Su Wen know?
Could it be that there were deities in the sky overlooking all living beings?
Did his ability to travel back and forth have anything to do with them?
Some thoughts flashed through his mind, but he smiled and said, "Since it's beneficial to Your Majesty, you can eat all of them."
"Although it's beneficial, it's still a little effective. However, it's very useful to you. It nourishes your whole body and replenishes your blood and qi. It's very effective, but it's gentle and won't cause you any harm. Instead, it will mend your body and benefit your future cultivation. These days, your cultivation progress is too slow. Eat it and you can catch up. "
After finishing her words, the empress pushed the three peaches in front of him. Her ears were red as she leaned against the wall. It was unknown if she was thinking about the promise she made with Ren Baqian.
After Ren Baqian attained the Earth Wheel level and stabilized, he could marry the empress.
Pushing these three peaches to him seemed to make him feel that she couldn't wait any longer.
However, this peach was indeed very beneficial to Ren Baqian. Not only could it increase his strength, but it could also mend some of his injuries.
"This peach … Is it precious in the temple?" Ren Baqian looked at the little monk and asked. He had some ideas about this peach.
"There is only one peach tree in the temple that produces the best peaches. There are only eight peaches a year, and this is four of them," the little monk said.
Ren Baqian raised his eyebrows. They only produced eight peaches a year, and half of them were sent over at once. This was indeed a big gift.
"Master also said that for the next five years, he will give you four peaches every year. After five years, you won't need it anymore. "
When the empress heard what the little monk said, she was a little astonished. Ten years and twenty pills, it was indeed not a small amount.
After hearing this, Ren Baqian immediately stopped talking.
First, he grabbed a peach and took a bite. A fragrant and sweet taste filled his mouth. The peach was fine and soft, and he swallowed it in two or three bites. Then, from his stomach, it turned into a warm current that spread to his limbs and bones. His whole body seemed to be in a warm state, and he felt as if he was floating.
After swallowing the entire peach, his entire body heated up. He felt waves of heat surging through his body, causing him to be unable to move.
The empress gently patted his back.
The warm current in Ren Baqian's body was immediately dispersed and integrated into his whole body.
After Ren Baqian could move, he felt unbearably thirsty again. The temptation of the two remaining peaches on the table was even greater. He couldn't wait to grab one and eat it again, experiencing the same experience as before.
However, after the empress dispersed the warm current in his body, Ren Baqian's muscles flowed like waves. He felt his whole body was light as a feather, as if he was flying. When he came back to his senses, he was already in the [Visualization of Wood]. That metal chain was spinning on the tree trunk in front of him.
After a quarter of an hour, Ren Baqian woke up from the [Visualization of Wood]. All the bones in his body made "ka ka" sounds. He felt his whole body relax, as if the shackles that had been entangled in his body for a long time had been unlocked.
His whole body had become much stronger.
He knew that this wasn't an illusion. He had just broken through the [Visualization of Wood].
Originally, he could only climb half of the gigantic tree in the [Visualization of Wood]. If he practiced normally, he would need at least three months.
However, these two peaches saved him three months of hard work and allowed him to break through the first level.
This effect could be said to be heaven-defying.
At least in that world, there weren't many items that could have such an effect, let alone on Earth.
This made Ren Baqian even more unable to see through Su Wen.
In the past, when he worked with the nation, he was very clear that there weren't any supernatural abilities, immortals, or anything like that in this world. Otherwise, the nation wouldn't have treated him like that. He had also confirmed this point during his work with the Messier 87 department.
However, Su Wen's various actions and these few peaches made him understand that there was indeed something wrong with this "Su Wen."
It seemed like he had to meet him.
Ren Baqian thought for a while and looked up at the little monk Xing Ruo. Since the other party had given him such a big gift, if it was just to send the little monk over to preach, there seemed to be no reason for him to reject it.
The little monk wouldn't be able to return from that world and wouldn't be able to cause any impact.
Furthermore, his age and identity meant that he didn't know much about things other than Buddhism, so he wouldn't be able to affect that world.
However, to be on the safe side, Ren Baqian still chatted with the little monk for a while before confirming his thoughts.
The little monk grew up in the monastery and knew very little about the outside world. This was his first time coming down the mountain and he was like a blank piece of paper.
"If you follow me, you will never see your master again," Ren Baqian said.
"This little monk's fortuitous encounter is with you. Master said that this little monk will go wherever you want me to go."
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill or sell you?"
The little monk obviously revealed a fearful expression, but he still clenched his teeth and said, "Regardless of whether I am killed or sold, it's still my fate."
Upon seeing this, Ren Baqian didn't say anything else.
He lowered his head and looked at the peach. Even though it was still emitting a fragrant and sweet smell, it didn't have that impatient desire to eat it anymore. Immediately, he understood that this peach wasn't for him. Right now, he only needed to eat two.
"Your Majesty, you should eat this one. I can feel that these two are already enough, "Ren Baqian ignored the little monk's expectant gaze and said to the empress.
Upon hearing this, the empress didn't say anything else. She ate the peach in two or three bites. After a few minutes, a strong gust of air burst out from her body, sending Ren Baqian, the little monk, the coffee table, and the sofa at the side flying. Only the empress and the sofa that she was sitting on remained in their original positions.
"Not bad, my injuries are finally healed." The empress chuckled. Even though she wasn't afraid of pain, that kind of pain constantly provoked her nerves and made her very annoyed. At this moment, her injuries were completely healed. Her body had returned to its peak state, which made her feel very happy.
…
In Wu City, a blind old man strolled along the city wall. The bamboo cane in his hand tapped lightly on the ground.
This person's eyes were blindfolded, he wore a black robe, and his hair was neatly tied at the back of his head.
This person gave off a strange feeling when he walked. If someone were to carefully observe this person, they would realize that the distance of each step was exactly the same. Every time he tapped with his bamboo cane, the direction in which he tapped was also exactly the same. His palms didn't tremble at all. As a result, it gave off a mechanical feeling.
This person walked to the vicinity of the empress's residence in Wu City. After hearing the berating from the front, he stopped in his tracks and carefully sensed the residence before muttering to himself, "She's actually not here?"
Following which, he opened his mouth and said, "Where did Qi Zixiao go?"
"Impudent! How dare you call Her Majesty by her name? "The two soldiers in front of the door immediately flew into a rage. They drew their steel swords and slashed at him.
However, just as the two of them were about ten meters away from this person, the blind man tapped twice with his bamboo cane in the air. The two of them stopped in their tracks and fell to the ground.
Fresh blood flowed out from their chests.
When such a thing happened outside, there was an immediate uproar in the residence.
Tall and big figures jumped out of the residence and slashed at this blind man with gleaming swords.
However, this blind man merely tapped the air with his bamboo cane, and the figures fell from the sky one after another.
The cause of death was the same. There was a hole in their chests, and their hearts were shattered.
In a short period of time, more than ten people had fallen beside him. However, there were still winged cavalry warriors who heard the news and rushed over from all directions. Even though they saw the corpses on the ground, they weren't afraid at all and silently waved the steel swords in their hands.
Xi Wanya, who had rushed out after receiving the news, only saw dozens of winged cavalry warriors pouncing on this person. However, this person merely tapped the bamboo cane in his hand, and the winged cavalry warriors immediately lost their lives.
Xi Wanya immediately shouted angrily, "Where did this scoundrel come from? How dare you!"
"Where is Qi Zixiao?" the blind man said indifferently. His hands didn't stop as he reaped lives after lives.
