Chapter 146: Let's use flat peaches as payment

~7 min read 1,330 words

"Third Prince, as long as you promise me, wear this skirt, and I won't tell the Heavenly King about these things."

Zhi Nv coaxed gently, but Nezha's heart was in turmoil.

After a while, finally, not wanting to be exposed, and with his fondness for the little skirt overcoming his dignity in his heart,

"Alright, I'll wear it!"

Nezha, with a resentful face, picked up the skirt from the box; Zhi Nv reached out and pointed to the room, gesturing for Nezha to go inside to change.

Nezha let out a light snort, originally wanting to vent his dissatisfaction, but in Zhi Nv's ears it sounded somewhat haughty and coquettish.

The brave warrior goes forth and never returns!

Nezha walked in.

Zhi Nv looked at the screen, resting her chin on her hand, her eyes holding a trace of anticipation; this little skirt was specially tailored for the Third Prince.

Although she hadn't measured him personally, her experienced eye from making clothes for others immediately knew his measurements.

Although the skirt wouldn't be used for long, she had put great care into it; the quality of this skirt was absolutely top-notch among the skirts she had made.

I don't know what the Third Prince would look like wearing it.

Thinking this, her heart still felt a little excited.

Entering the room, temporarily leaving Zhi Nv, Nezha let out a breath of relief, his eyes holding a trace of lingering fear; this woman was too terrifying.

Feeling that in her presence, he had no secrets at all; from now on, he must definitely stay away from her!

Thinking this, Nezha carefully examined the skirt Zhi Nv had given him, and his whole body froze instantly.

He couldn't have seen wrong, could he!

"Scattered Flowers Wishing Cloud Smoke Skirt."

"Grade: Extremely Delicious Low Tier."

"Ability: Six times cultivation speed, magical power recovery speed increased three times, soul defense power increased two cups, increased three times defense power increased increased five-tier qualification (Prepared Saint initial stage)."

"Exclusive Ability: Illusory body will transform the body into petals, dodging attacks."

Good, so impressive!

Nezha carefully stroked the skirt in his hand, as if beholding a peerless treasure.

This skirt's effect is too heaven-defying, isn't it!

Six times cultivation speed; even Yang Dage's cultivation qualification would be left far behind by him.

And that fifth-tier qualification is even more heaven-defying, directly bringing his potential to the early Prepared Saint stage.

If this were before, let alone Prepared Saint, even a Great Luo Golden Immortal would be luxurious for him,

Moreover, this skirt also has an exclusive ability; this defense power at a glance is an awesome existence, feeling like it's almost catching up to divine powers.

Nezha's breath stagnated, his eyes somewhat fiery.

Wear!

Heart set firm!

Nezha's body flashed with light, and the skirt dressed itself on him.

Not too long, not too short, just right; this kind of build for a skirt could only have been made for himself.

Nezha tiptoed, turned slightly, and the skirt hem spun along with him, like a blooming flower.

Immediately, a blush appeared on his face; how could he make such a shameful movement!

I am a boy, I am a boy, I am a boy!

Nezha steadied himself in his heart.

"Done yet? If you won't wear it, I can come in to help you." Suddenly, a devil-like voice came from outside.

Nezha jumped in fright, quickly saying: "Coming, coming!"

He hurriedly ran out.

Looking up and down at Nezha now, Zhi Nv's face showed surprise; she hadn't expected it to fit so well.

She walked forward leisurely.

"You, what do you want to do?!" Nezha reflexively stepped back, like a startled little cat.

Zhi Nv said nothing, but walked straight forward, her bare hand reaching toward the back of Nezha's head.

Nezha's whole body stiffened, just standing there dazed.

Zhi Nv gently pulled,

Undid the red rope tied at both sides of Nezha's head; his black hair fell loose, long and smooth, his stature small and delicate.

The skirt was milky white as a base, decorated with various lotus petal patterns, white and pink.

Swaying the skirt hem lightly, the flower petals seemed to float like dancing.

The sleeves were slightly wide, the cuffs edged with dark green bands, like lotus leaves in midsummer.

The skirt below was even more layered, giving a vivid feeling.

Pale small face, delicate features, paired with this Scattered Flowers Wishing Cloud Smoke Skirt, a perfect match, a lively and handsome bride.

"Truly beautiful." Zhi Nv smiled and nodded, very satisfied.

"Beautiful my ass!" Nezha snorted angrily, singing in opposition.

He just couldn't let this woman have her way!

"Alright, you can go back now." Having admired him, Zhi Nv waved her hand, smiling teasingly: "From now on, Third Prince, don't come over to do these sneaky chicken-stealing and dog-sneaking things; if you want a little skirt, just tell me directly."

"Those don't suit your figure."

You're too small; wearing big clothes would be troublesome, especially skirts.

Nezha was so angry he wanted to stomp his foot, but he still held back; being angry with this woman, he felt like he never had a chance to win.

Lowering his head to look at his beautiful outfit, Nezha took out the flat peach he had been keeping and threw it at Zhi Nv.

"Just consider this as compensation." Nezha held his head high, his expression calm.

Zhi Nv unconsciously took it, her expression turning surprised—it was actually a peach from the Peach Banquet.

Although it was only three thousand years old, to her it was already extremely precious.

After all, he didn't even have the qualifications to attend the Peach Banquet.

"Thank you for the Third Prince's kindness, but this dress required little effort, so there's no need for such a precious gift." Zhi Nv smiled slightly and was about to return the peach.

"Just take it if I tell you to." Nezha waved his hand impatiently—he didn't want to owe anyone a favor.

Although this dress might be trivial for Zhi Nv to make, wearing it on herself carried a different meaning.

Comparable to a divine object, a priceless treasure!

"Good." Seeing Nezha's firm attitude, Zhi Nv narrowed her eyes, smiling as she nodded slightly.

"It seems the Third Prince doesn't value this thing much." Zhi Nv teased.

If it were an ordinary immortal, they would regard this peach as a precious treasure.

"Compared to the dishes at the banquet, this thing is far inferior." Nezha rolled his eyes—if it weren't for the precedent set by Maitreya Buddha swapping dishes, which were nine-thousand-year-old peaches.

This three-thousand-year-old peach is utterly unpresentable—he had long ago used it to exchange for a table full of dishes.

The banquet's dishes?

Zhi Nv's eyes widened in surprise, somewhat confused—when did these dishes become comparable to peaches?

One is simply to satisfy hunger, the other is an innate spiritual root with astonishing effects.

Which is lighter, which heavier—one glance tells all.

"Could the Third Prince be muddle-headed? How could this peach possibly compare to ordinary food?" Zhi Nv chuckled lightly, her face full of lack of confidence.

But this suddenly stimulated Nezha—under heaven, all food is but fleeting clouds, yet one cannot slander anything related to Chaos Residence!

Whether it's Monkey Brother's dishes or Tianpeng claiming they come from Chaos Residence hot pot, they are all supreme!

After learning Sun Wukong's identity, Nezha also willingly paid respect to Monkey Brother in his heart.

Not only is he highly talented and powerful, with excellent cooking skills, but he is also Chen the Shopkeeper's disciple, having truly inherited the teachings—disobedience is unacceptable.

"You didn't go, so naturally you don't know how delicious this banquet's food is."

Nezha shouted urgently, straining to describe the food's flavor with his most elegant language.

However, his speaking skills were lacking—his words came out dry and bland, utterly unrounded, let alone swaying Zhi Nv's opinion.

Nezha felt anxious in his heart.

Suddenly, inspiration struck.
