Chapter 1547: Lala Pouts, Mengmeng
"Thank you, Dao Jun, for gracing us with your presence. Qido feels deeply honored."
"You're too kind."
Zhang Taixuan took the main seat, exchanged a few polite words with Qido and Saifei, and only then did the banquet officially begin.
To be honest, Zhang Taixuan didn't particularly enjoy such formalities.
But sometimes, when your status reaches a certain level,
such things become unavoidable.
After all, if you refuse others' courtesy or their offerings, they'll only grow anxious.
People are sometimes quite peculiar.
When someone of high status treats an ordinary person as an equal, the ordinary person finds it unnatural.
Only when the high-status person maintains distance do ordinary people feel it's reasonable.
That's exactly how Qido and Saifei felt.
Seeing Zhang Taixuan accept their goodwill, they both exhaled deeply, their spirits finally relaxing.
During the banquet, everyone except Lala and Zhang Taixuan ate with great restraint.
Mengmeng and Nana had to observe proper etiquette.
Qido and Saifei had to tread carefully.
After the banquet ended, Lala led Zhang Taixuan to her residence.
"Big Brother Taixuan, Mom and Dad were a bit too…" Lala felt a little embarrassed.
Zhang Taixuan smiled: "It's fine. It's your first meeting—naturally there's awkwardness. It'll get better."
This kind of thing happens all the time.
With my current status, aside from those who've known me for ages, who doesn't treat me with caution?
A being more terrifying than a Sage—even if you show no hostility, others dare not show the slightest neglect.
That's reality.
In any world, the strong always have privileges.
"Mm-hmm." Lala smiled again. "Big Brother Taixuan, let's go see the Peaches of Immortality tree. See how well I planted it."
"Let's go." Zhang Taixuan nodded.
In truth, the Peaches of Immortality or any other primordial spirit root has no planting difficulty.
These primordial spirit roots are manifestations of a certain Dao—so long as they don't suffer a great calamity, you can plant them anywhere; it's nearly impossible to kill them.
The two held hands and arrived at the Peaches of Immortality grove, where the trees were already thick with lush, emerald-green leaves.
Upon seeing Zhang Taixuan arrive, the Peaches of Immortality trees swayed gently, leaves rustling, sending a clear sense of affection.
Lala gasped: "Big Brother Taixuan, the Peaches of Immortality tree is welcoming you!"
"Of course—I'm their creator!" Zhang Taixuan chuckled, waved his hand, and a spirit light descended. Instantly, ten Peaches of Immortality trees bloomed, flowers fell, and fruit piled thickly.
In mere moments, the scent of Peaches of Immortality filled the entire planet, lifting everyone's spirits.
"Wow!"
Mengmeng's voice rang out, and next instant, the girl rushed closer. "The Peaches of Immortality are blooming and fruiting—does that mean we can become Immortals too?"
"Of course," Zhang Taixuan smiled. "One Peach of Immortality will make you an Immortal on the spot. Lala, didn't you buy a cultivation technique? You can pass it on to Mengmeng and Nana."
"Thank you, Big Brother Taixuan."
Nana ran in, heard this, and joyfully thanked him.
The technique was bought by her sister—that didn't matter.
The key was, Big Brother Taixuan actually remembered her.
This was simply wonderful.
Nana's eyes darted about, silently cheering herself: "Sister can do it, so can I. Hmph, Nana, you can do it!"
Lala was stunned: "The Peaches of Immortality matured in just a moment?!"
"What else?" Zhang Taixuan smiled. "Though Peaches of Immortality are top-tier primordial spirit roots, ripening them isn't hard. Lala, how about I give you another little gift?"
Lala beamed: "Anything you give me, I love."
Mengmeng curiously asked: "What are you giving Big Sister?"
"You'll see soon," Zhang Taixuan smiled mysteriously. Next instant, everyone felt the ground tremble.
The planet where Dibuluk resided was rapidly growing.
In an instant, it expanded a billionfold—and the acceleration hadn't slowed.
More importantly, not a single building or living being on the planet was harmed by this cataclysmic change.
Lala soared into the sky and gazed out—she couldn't see the horizon, and she was awestruck.
Moments passed.
The transformation ceased. The entire planet had become a continent.
Lala puzzled: "What is this?"
Zhang Taixuan smiled: "I used the ten Peaches of Immortality trees as the core to transform Dibuluk's planet into a Middle World with a round sky and square earth. A world within a world. From now on, you need never fear invasion by other factions. With this realm, you can advance or retreat, forever standing invincible."
Mengmeng was stunned: "You created a whole world in just a moment?"
Nana also felt it unreal…
Only Lala felt no shock—only joy. She rushed forward, gave him a kiss, and beamed: "Thank you, Big Brother Taixuan."
Mengmeng snapped back, gasped: "Big Sister, you're so bold!"
Nana's face flushed: "Big Sister, there are other people here!"
Lala laughed: "So what? Big Brother Taixuan, want to eat a Peach of Immortality?"
