Chapter 205

~7 min read 1,368 words

Chen Nuo furrowed his brow, lost in thought, he needed to devise a foolproof plan.

His gaze unconsciously fell on the crystal ball to the side, a flash of sharp light appearing in his eyes.

Right!

How could he have forgotten this thing?

"System, this payment-collecting crystal ball—does it come in a smaller size, one that allows shape selection?"

"Host, yes."

Chen Nuo nodded, and the payment dilemma was instantly resolved.

Now, only the problem of choosing dishes and conveying information remained.

Lightly tapping the table, the entire hall rang with clear, rhythmic sounds—surely he couldn't tie such a huge menu to the crystal ball and send it over, could he?

That would be far too troublesome.

Ordering dishes means reading the menu descriptions, and the essence of the menu lies in the dish names and the pictures above them.

Essentially, it's visual transmission; as for how to receive the order information...

In his past life, shopkeepers received detailed orders—though they appeared as text, the true reminders were actually sounds.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration lit Chen Nuo's mind, his eyes gleaming with sharp light—he seemed to have found a way!

Bai Hua slowly opened her eyes, her beautiful pupils still filled with lingering shock.

Just now... what was that?

Feeling the tangible memory existing in her mind, Bai Hua slightly opened her mouth, somewhat incredulous—had she awakened divine abilities?

A mere early-stage Golden Immortal like her had actually awakened divine abilities!

Lowering her head, Bai Hua gazed at the remaining fried chicken in the box, her heart filled with astonishment—this fried chicken?!

Her awakening of divine abilities was entirely due to this golden, glistening fried chicken before her!

Because she had fully experienced the awakening of divine abilities, her understanding was exceptionally clear.

Just what kind of divine being is this shopkeeper Chen? Bai Hua Xian Zi felt her heart tremble.

Merely the dish she prepared possesses the power to awaken divine abilities—what level of heaven-shaking, earth-penetrating cultivation could achieve this?

Though her cultivation is not high, after all, she was personally nurtured by the Lady Mother, her cultivation method is orthodox, so regarding awakening divine abilities, she also has some understanding.

This is fundamentally not something normally achievable—this isn't cultivation, yet it can pour nectar onto the crown.

Moreover, even if divine ability cultivation methods and such were directly imprinted into the mind by a great expert, one must still undergo personal arduous training to master them—fundamentally, they cannot be achieved overnight!

Though the divine abilities in her mind were implanted with memories, this thing feels more like an instinct—she believes that as long as she wills it, she can use it anytime.

This is the same as the Yue Xi she mastered after enduring countless trials.

If this isn't an accident?

Then are the Lady Mother and the Heavenly Emperor in the same situation as her?

Bai Hua Xian Zi pondered in her heart, unable to help but nod.

No wonder the Lady Mother's attitude toward Shopkeeper Chen is so different—aside from his cultivation being profoundly unfathomable, this ability to awaken divine abilities must be the key factor!

On this, Bai Hua expressed full understanding—after all, divine abilities are not ordinary things; powerful divine abilities even draw great experts flocking to them.

Suppressing her inner excitement, Bai Hua lowered her head and began to continue enjoying the remaining fragrant crispy fried chicken in the box.

But her eating speed kept increasing—soon, Bai Hua Xian Zi had completely devoured the fragrant crispy fried chicken.

Hurriedly wiping her mouth, she didn't even have time to drink the peach soda before rushing straight to her rear hall's Baihua Garden.

Bai Hua Xian Zi's garden cultivates all kinds of flowers, whether mundane or immortal-grade, everything is complete.

For the grand ceremonies once required by the Heavenly Court, the flowers were all taken from her—when it comes to flower cultivation, Bai Hua Xian Zi claims second place; in the Three Realms, no one dares claim first.

Though it is not a path to enter profound cultivation,

it is also a path she has walked out for herself.

Whenever flowers are mentioned, people generally do not forget her title.

Does a flower bloom with a single thought?

Bai Hua Xian Zi's mind stirred slightly—just right, she would use the flowers she cultivated to test the effect of divine abilities.

But when she arrived at the Baihua Garden, the entire person was dazed—was this truly her Baihua Garden, not a pigsty?

Only to see that in the middle of the garden, everywhere was already in disarray.

Individual plants were scattered seven-eight fallen, branches and leaves withered and broken, completely lacking any semblance of flowers—even random roadside grass patches in the mortal realm would look far better than this.

Every kind of flower suffered heavy losses, only a small part clinging to life, like reeds swaying in the rain, uncertain of survival from morning to evening, pitiful beyond measure.

Thinking of her promise to Zhi Nv Younger Sister and Nezha Third Prince to pick flowers, Bai Hua Xian Zi's eyelids twitched.

She thought she was only picking a few flower stalks—who would have imagined it would turn out like this!

Has it become a case of harvesting flowers by the law of heaven and earth? What use could there be for so many flowers?

Bai Hua Xian Zi felt both heartache and extreme bewilderment—she always felt something was strange.

Leaving aside other matters, just the fact that Zhi Nv Younger Sister and Nezha Third Prince appeared together is already highly suspicious.

When did Zhi Nv Younger Sister and the Third Prince have any connection?

Moreover, the way this Baihua Garden was destroyed—just one look tells it couldn't have been done by Zhi Nv Younger Sister.

Then only the lawless Third Prince remains.

The Third Prince wants flowers... Bai Hua Xian Zi pursed her cherry lips, her face full of thirst for knowledge.

Her intuition tells her this matter is absolutely not that simple.

She has always been a person with intense curiosity; Zhi Nv Younger Sister hiding this from her only makes her want to know the truth even more!

When Zhi Nv Younger Sister returns, she will definitely go inquire again!

Thinking this through, Bai Hua Xian Zi again turned her gaze toward these flower branches before her, ravaged and destroyed.

"I don't know if it'll work." Bai Hua Xian Zi whispered softly.

Closing her eyes, clearing her mind, Bai Hua Xian Zi began to practice in accordance with the inheritance of the Divine Communication memory, her aura began to gather, becoming somewhat ethereal.

After a few breaths, Bai Hua Xian Zi raised her arm, her fair palm spread open, facing the flowers filling the garden.

Flowers blooming... she murmured inwardly, Bai Hua Xian Zi then opened her eyes, invisible power began to erupt, wrapping all the withered flowers.

And in the next moment, a miraculous thing happened!

The flowers that Nezha had casually plucked, leaving only green stems, actually began to sprout branches and buds at a visible speed, slowly forming one flower bud after another.

They grew even fuller.

Bai Hua Xian Zi's fair forehead beaded with fine sweat.

One thought, reckless!

As the last two words were spoken in her heart.

Crack!

A clear sound rang out, just like a decree, in an instant all the flower buds in Baihua Garden bloomed simultaneously.

Crimson and purple reflected in her eyes, dazzlingly splendid and captivating.

When all the flowers reached the peak of bloom, Bai Hua Xian Zi ceased the operation of the Divine Communication, took a long sigh, pulled out a napkin and gently wiped her forehead.

Gazing at the breathtaking scenery before her, Bai Hua Xian Zi's eyes shone with delight.

It really worked! This is too useful!

In the past, when she tended flowers, none could grow without careful nurturing, but now using this Divine Communication, she could directly accelerate flower growth!

A thought stirred, Bai Hua Xian Zi turned her gaze toward a nearby flower.

Flowers bloom, one thought!

Bai Hua Xian Zi silently gave a soft shout, the flower in full bloom began to wrinkle slightly, slowly, the entire stem withered and lost its form.
