Chapter 1113: Heavenly Root

"Mengmeng is timid, don't scare her." Grandma warned twice, then turned to put on a smiling face.

Lu Yang couldn't help but sit upright, not like a guest, but more like a prisoner on trial. When had he ever seen Senior Sister with a soft tone?

Although compared to others, Senior Sister's words just now still sounded very cold, but compared to the previous Senior Sister, there was a very obvious gap.

"Excuse me, I heard from Mengmeng that you take care of her in the outside world, and she often praises you when she comes back."

"Mengmeng is a child with no opinions, kind-hearted and timid. When she took the initiative to leave the secret realm, I was always worried."

"Fortunately, the first person she met when she went out was you, otherwise I would really be afraid that she would be deceived by bad people."

Lu Yang said with a smile: "Mengmeng sister is innocent and cute, who wouldn't like her? Presumably, even those villains wouldn't have the heart to deceive Mengmeng sister."

Yun Mengmeng listened from the side and laughed.

"It's not easy to be Xiao Zhi's Little Junior Brother, right."

Puff—

Lu Yang, who was drinking Peach Blossom Tea, sprayed it out directly. Why did he suddenly talk about this topic for no reason?

"What's wrong?" Grandma was slightly surprised, why such a big reaction?

Lu Yang waved his hands repeatedly: "Nothing, nothing, the tea is hot, I drank it too fast."

Seeing this, Yun Mengmeng ran over to take a handkerchief to wipe Lu Yang's mouth and patted his back lightly.

"Xiao Zhi, phew, Senior Sister usually takes good care of me and has saved me several times. I can't thank Senior Sister enough."

Everyone here called Senior Sister "Xiao Zhi," which almost led Lu Yang into the ditch.

Seeing that Lu Yang was fine, Grandma continued: "Xiao Zhi has been different from others since she was a child and couldn't play with others. Others played with sandbags, she read books; others climbed trees, she read books. Only Mengmeng played with her more. Mengmeng spent a lot of effort to push her up the tree, but she still read books while sitting on the tree."

"Xiao Zhi is not without feelings, she just doesn't know how to express them. She hides things and has to deal with them alone, not wanting others to worry."

"Yes." Lu Yang nodded in agreement. Senior Sister is good at everything, just doesn't like to talk. She didn't even talk about such a big thing as merging the Dao, but had to hold it in and solve it alone.

Lu Yang nodded halfway, and suddenly felt a dangerous gaze fall on him, scaring his hair to stand up.

There were only a few people here, and thinking about the topic being discussed, the answer to what could make Lu Yang feel this way was self-evident.

Grandma didn't know Miss Yun Zhi's small movements and continued: "With a down-to-earth person like you as her Little Junior Brother to help her share the pressure, I can rest assured."

"Grandma, let's eat." Miss Yun Zhi sat quietly on the side and kindly reminded.

Grandma slapped her forehead: "Oh right, I've been rambling for a long time, only letting you drink a stomach full of tea. Come, let's go eat."

"Right Second-in-Command, let's go eat." Yun Mengmeng happily took Lu Yang and headed to the center of the Peach Blossom Secret Realm.

Lu Yang was the first guest in the Peach Blossom Secret Realm in nearly a thousand years. Grandma had long ordered the clansmen to prepare meals. During the chat, the meals were almost ready.

The huge peach tree was like a cloud cover, occupying the center of the Peach Blossom Secret Realm, forming a cool shade.

The Yun clansmen moved tables, set dishes, and poured fruit juice and fruit wine. Lu Yang just approached here and smelled the pungent fragrance, which actually brought a slight increase in cultivation.

Now he is a true late Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, and his demand for spiritual energy is surprisingly large. Being able to increase cultivation just by smelling it, one can imagine how strange this fragrance is.

"No wonder everyone here is a cultivator." Lu Yang had long noticed that all the Yun clansmen were cultivators, and their cultivation was not low.

Living in such a strange place, it would be strange if the cultivation was low.

Lu Yang looked in the direction of the fragrance, and it was this most conspicuous peach tree that was emitting it.

Lu Yang had never seen such a thick peach tree. Lu Yang believed it had a tree age of tens of thousands of years. The only thing that could be compared with the scale of this peach tree was the true body of the Immortal of Time, that Jianmu buried under the Wuxing Sect.

One by one, pink and plump big peaches hung on the branches, pressing the branches to bend. The Yun clansmen were like fairies, flying in the sky with their skirts fluttering.

They used jade ruyi to knock down the peaches, caught them with bamboo baskets, and placed them on the banquet as the main dish today.

The Yun clansmen noticed Lu Yang's arrival and kept glancing in Lu Yang's direction while working.

Everyone took their seats. There was no division of status here, they sat very casually, and the food they ate was the same.

"Taste it, this kind of peach is unique to our secret realm and cannot be eaten outside. I don't know if Xiao Zhi and Mengmeng have let you taste it."

Lu Yang's expression was strange. Of course he had tasted it. This kind of peach could not be forgotten once seen. Isn't this the fruit of the Heavenly Root immortal peach? It can forcibly extend lifespan and increase cultivation. During the Battle of the Imperial City, it was precisely this immortal peach that was used to save Xia Di, and Guan Shanhai was tricked out.

Later, it was learned that Xia Di was feigning illness and there was no need to eat the immortal peach. On the way back, he and Senior Sister divided the immortal peach, and also made the Immortal Fairy watch from the side and drool.

But the problem is that Senior Sister didn't say that she accidentally obtained this immortal peach? After picking an immortal peach, the Heavenly Root ran away.

How did this Heavenly Root grow well in Senior Sister's hometown?

Lu Yang secretly aimed at Senior Sister, wanting to observe her reaction. Miss Yun Zhi was chatting with Yun Mengmeng. She noticed Lu Yang's gaze and turned her head and said: "Little Junior Brother, why are you looking at me? Eat."

I don't know why, Lu Yang always felt that Senior Sister was different today.

There was a feeling of trying hard to pretend to be the same as usual.

The Yun clansmen had a 100,000-year history of entering the Peach Blossom Secret Realm and had long studied the way of eating peaches thoroughly. The banquet also had delicacies brought by Miss Yun Zhi from the gourmet planet, which improved the taste of the Peach Blossom Banquet by a level. Lu Yang ate quite happily.

From time to time, the Immortal Fairy also possessed Lu Yang to taste the delicacies and praised them endlessly.

There were also beautiful Yun clansmen who started dancing halfway through eating, with graceful figures and beautiful scenery.

Rather than saying they were dancing for Lu Yang, it was better to say they liked dancing.

Yun Mengmeng looked itchy and went up to dance a section, causing bursts of applause, and the atmosphere was happy.

"Fairy, aren't you surprised why Senior Sister said she didn't know where the Heavenly Root was?" Lu Yang asked secretly in the spiritual space.

"Hey, don't think so much." The Immortal Fairy waved her hand, appearing particularly understanding at this moment, "Yun girl has her own difficulties in doing this, we must understand her."

"Hmm?" Lu Yang was confused. Isn't the Fairy's curiosity very high? What's going on today?

"Fairy, leave some for me." Seeing the Immortal Fairy in a good mood, almost sweeping away the food on the table, Lu Yang said.

The banquet was nearing its end. Lu Yang approached Grandma and asked the doubt he had had since entering the secret realm.

"Grandma, why are the clansmen in our secret realm all women?"
