Chapter 38: Planting the Peach Tree, Haotian's Thoughts

Mount Kunlun.

Jade Void Palace.

After the Antarctic Immortal returned from the North Sea, he reported to Yuanshi Tianzun.

Naturally, hearing that the Antarctic Immortal failed to block Wen Zhong, Yuanshi Tianzun frowned.

The Antarctic Immortal was his most trusted disciple, the disciple he was most at ease with, none other.

And he had actually failed.

He opened his mouth to inquire.

"Antarctic, what's going on? Why did you fail even when blocking a Wen Zhong?"

"Teacher, the disciple was setting up the maze and illusion as ordered. Originally, Wen Zhong had fallen into the maze, but who knew the Golden Spirit Holy Mother would suddenly appear? The disciple fought with her and was defeated, so I had to come back. I estimate that the formation I set up has already been destroyed by the Golden Spirit Holy Mother."

Yuanshi Tianzun snorted coldly: "That group of people in the Jie Sect who wear hair and horns do not know the number of heaven, only cultivate mana and not virtue. What is the use?"

Saints can communicate with the number of heaven with divine thoughts and perform deductions.

Yuanshi Tianzun wanted to try to deduce the reason for this matter, but the calamity energy of heaven and earth was permeating, and the people and things related to the Great Calamity were in chaos, and he couldn't deduce it at all, or someone had erased the secret of heaven.

Being frustrated in dealing with the Jie Sect time and time again made Yuanshi Tianzun feel very unhappy.

He began to ponder.

Could the Golden Spirit Holy Mother have been sent by Tong Tian?

In this way, Tong Tian knew about the plan to trap Wen Zhong?

Yuanshi Tianzun's face was deep.

Being frustrated time and time again made him have to re-recognize Tong Tian.

But in his heart, he doubted himself. After the Three Pure Ones separated, when did Tong Tian become so scheming?

Seeing Yuanshi Tianzun not speaking, the Antarctic Immortal said: "Teacher, it looks like Wen Zhong will return to Zhaoge soon. What should we do? Or should we send Wen Zhong to the list now?"

Yuanshi Tianzun lowered his head and pondered.

No matter what, Wen Zhong was a third-generation direct disciple of the Jie Sect and also a disciple of the Golden Spirit Holy Mother.

If he killed him now, it would certainly quickly push the confrontation with the Jie Sect, and the current plan to weaken the fortune of Yin-Shang was blocked.

Although he had been scolding the Jie Sect disciples for only cultivating mana and not virtue, this was also a disguised admission that in terms of individual strength, the Chan Sect disciples were not as good as the Jie Sect disciples.

A direct conflict with the Jie Sect now would have no chance of winning.

He said indifferently.

"Put this matter aside for now, focus on weakening the fortune of Yin-Shang and pushing Western Qi to rebel."

"The Jie Sect's eyes are fixed on Zhaoge. It is difficult to destroy the current fortune of Yin-Shang from the inside, so we can destroy it from the outside. As long as the feudal lords in various places rebel one after another, the fortune of Yin-Shang will naturally continue to decrease."

Hearing this, the Antarctic Immortal's eyes lit up: "Teacher is wise."

Yuanshi Tianzun's gaze was indifferent, his tone without any waves: "Let our people intensify the rebellion of the feudal lords in various places."

"Yes, Teacher."

Three Immortals Island.

After Gu Xiu returned, he took out the sapling of the innate Ren Water Peach Tree.

"I joked before that I wanted to plant the peach tree on Three Immortals Island. Now that I happen to have a peach tree sapling in my hand, let's plant it."

"In this way, from now on, peaches will no longer be something unique to the Heavenly Court. But having only one is too few..."

Gu Xiu said with some regret.

The Heavenly Court could use peaches to buy off the immortals because the Heavenly Court had three thousand six hundred peach trees.

There were three thousand, six thousand, and nine thousand-year varieties.

And he only had one nine-thousand-year one.

"I hope the damn system will give some more peach tree saplings in the future."

Thinking this, he planted the peach tree.

Around the innate peach tree sapling, there was a thin layer of immortal spiritual energy, exuding rich vitality, as if possessing endless life force.

The peach tree is an innate spiritual root. When Gu Xiu planted the peach tree sapling, its roots dug deep into the ground, absorbing the essence of the earth, and the sapling grew instantly.

Because the peach tree was planted, the spiritual energy in the place instantly became much richer.

The Three Xiao Sisters felt the anomaly and came to check, finding that Gu Xiu had planted an innate spiritual root in the courtyard.

Looking closely.

"Could this be a peach tree?"

Gu Xiu stood up: "Master, you are here. This is indeed a peach tree, and it is a nine-thousand-year variety."

Bi Xiao blinked and looked at the peach tree: "Are you sure this isn't something you stole back from the Heavenly Court?"

Gu Xiu smiled indifferently: "Junior Uncle, if you don't believe me, you can go to the Heavenly Court and ask them if they lost any peaches."

"Okay, I'll go now." Bi Xiao didn't hesitate at all.

Yun Xiao shouted: "Third Sister, come back to me. You just want to go out and play, right?"

Yun Xiao didn't let Bi Xiao go to the Heavenly Court, and said thoughtfully.

"It seems there really are other peach trees in heaven and earth. In this way, if we want to eat peaches in the future, we shouldn't have to attend the Heavenly Court's peach banquet."

Gu Xiu sighed. It would be a long time before the nine-thousand-year one matured, and he didn't know if he would be able to eat it then.

Heavenly Court.

Haotian was resting in the Jade Pool.

The Giant Spirit God came to see him again, bruised and swollen.

Haotian inquired.

"Giant Spirit God, what's going on with you? Didn't you say you saw Yang Jian's tracks and I let you go down to the world to capture him? How did you turn yourself into this state?"

"Your Majesty, the minister took the heavenly soldiers down to capture Yang Jian, but Yang Jian has already become an immortal and learned a set of skills. Not only is he invulnerable to swords and spears, but he is also full of changes..." The Giant Spirit God looked aggrieved and told the situation of capturing Yang Jian.

Hearing the description, Haotian frowned.

"Why does it sound so much like the moves and supernatural powers of the Profound Sect?"

He couldn't help but ponder.

It would be troublesome if Yang Jian had anything to do with the Three Sects of the Profound Sect.

He was the Lord of the Three Realms in name, but no one listened to him.

At this time, an old man with white hair ran in.

"Your Majesty, there is news."

"Oh, Great White Planet, what did you find out?"

"Found out who injured the Giant Spirit God and saved Yang Jian."

"Who is it? Daring to harbor the Heavenly Court's criminals?"

"It's a third-generation disciple of the Jie Sect."

"Sure enough, it's a Saint's disciple again?" Haotian didn't seem surprised at all, his heart without any waves.

Having been beaten to his door by the Twelve Golden Immortals, he was very unhappy with the Saint's disciples, but he was helpless.

Taibai Jinxing said.

"Your Majesty, I also heard a piece of news when I was inquiring about this person."

Haotian asked casually: "What news?"

"I heard that Master Yuding broke into Three Immortals Island not long ago and was beaten up by the Three Xiao Sisters of the Jie Sect, and was injured by the third-generation disciple who saved Yang Jian, breaking an immortal root, losing all face. This matter is spreading wildly in the Jie Sect."

"Haha, there is actually such a thing, good, good!" Haotian's originally depressed mood was swept away when he heard this news.

"Let Master Yuding smash my throne, he deserves it. Why should such a good thing only spread in the Jie Sect? At least it must spread throughout the Three Realms. Later, spread the news of Master Yuding going to Three Immortals Island, being beaten by the Jie Sect, and breaking his immortal root throughout the Three Realms."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After being happy, Haotian calmed down and pondered seriously in his heart.

"This third-generation disciple of the Jie Sect not only saved Yang Jian but also dared to make Master Yuding lose face. He is really a newborn calf not afraid of tigers."

"As long as I fan the flames and spread the news, the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect will be opposed. Let them fight each other, and the Heavenly Court can sit back and reap the benefits."

Seeing Haotian reveal an insidious smile for no reason.

Taibai Jinxing inquired.

"Your Majesty, since we know that the person who injured the Giant Spirit God and saved Yang Jian and Yang Chan is a Jie Sect disciple, what should we do next?"

"What to do?" Haotian snorted coldly: "What else can we do? Do you want the Heavenly Court to go to Biyou Palace to ask for people?"

"Not to mention whether the Heavenly Court has this ability, will Senior Brother Shangqing listen to me? Isn't it enough for the Chan Sect disciples to beat up the Heavenly Court? Do you want the Jie Sect disciples to beat them up too?"

Being scolded by Haotian, Taibai Jinxing felt a bit aggrieved.

Thinking about it, he still reminded:

"But Your Majesty, Yang Jian is already a Jie Sect disciple. He must already know that Yao Ji was suppressed by you under Tao Mountain, and he will definitely find a way to save Yao Ji. Maybe he will really beat his way to heaven."

"He dares?" Haotian shouted angrily: "No matter how bad the Heavenly Court is, it's not something a mere Yang Jian can beat his way up to. After the Investiture of the Gods is over and talents are gathered, my Heavenly Court will have plenty of talents. If Yang Jian dares to come, I will make sure he never returns."

Taibai Jinxing felt it made sense and started to flatter: "Your Majesty is still far-sighted." ===== CHAPTER 39 =====
