I Have a Golden Crow
Chapter 954 - 618: Qing Huixi (Part 2)
This mountain area is really desolate. Qing Yi and the Flower Dan have watered the forest with a whole lot of rain."
Li Jing: "..."
What a good junior sister she was, and now she's been led astray by the little junior brother just like that!
Du Yu and Li Mengnan both looked at Li Jing, blinking in unison. Their little movements were oddly synchronized?
Li Jing's mouth twitched in embarrassment. "I've been too busy with work usually, I really have neglected this as your senior brother.
I've heard that the Buddhist Sect temples have a planting tradition called the 'Five Trees and Six Flowers'. When I go back I'll properly study it and help pick something out for little junior sister."
"Five Trees and Six Flowers?" It was Li Mengnan's first time hearing the term. Her face was full of curiosity as she brought a finger up toward Du Yu's lips.
Du Yu leaned his head back slightly. "What are you doing?"
"Saving you from sneaking a bite later." Li Mengnan smiled brightly, those beautiful big eyes of hers full of mischief.
"Forget it, forget it." Du Yu looked at the girl's pale fingertip, thick Maple Syrup smeared on it.
The Maple Syrup was indeed very tempting, extremely deceptive.
But Du Yu had already eaten several buckets; he was practically traumatized!
Now, even when he saw normal syrup, he felt a bitter taste in his mouth!
"Senior brothers won't laugh at you. Here." Li Mengnan leaned closer to Du Yu, her fingertip inching forward again.
Du Yu: "Why don't you feed it to Master Qing instead, she'll like it."
Li Mengnan's face darkened. "You trying to get me killed!"
Du Yu blinked. "How about we make a bet?"
"Hm?"
"You grab a bowl and collect some Maple Syrup. If Master Qing doesn't eat it, I'll eat it all."
Li Mengnan widened her eyes, hesitated for quite a while, then shrank her neck back, looking like she really didn't dare.
Du Yu laughed. "Hand, help me hold the Demon Pet."
"Oh." Li Mengnan stretched out her other hand. With a surge of Demon Breath, a fiery-red Beautiful Demon Fox quietly appeared.
"Nyaa~" Yan Ruyu looked at the girl in front of her and immediately let out a cheerful soft cry.
"Wow, Xiaoyan!" Li Mengnan was overjoyed, stars practically sparkling in her eyes.
She quickly brought her finger to the Beautiful Demon Fox's mouth. "Five tails now, you're a Demon General!"
"Nyaa~" Prince Yan licked the Maple Syrup, that fluffy, exquisitely beautiful fox head rubbing against the girl's arms again and again. πππππ°π²π―π»ππππΉ.ππ¨π
This bed, Xiaoyan hadn't slept in it for quite a while.
She'd been planning to dote on Consort Li a bit, but Prince Yan's nose suddenly twitched, and she looked over at the disciples carrying trays.
Du Yu hurriedly said, "No, no, Master Qing eats first! I'll let you have some later."
"Nyaa~" Xiaoyan put on a pitiful expression, her pair of golden-brown, seductive fox eyes gradually turning pure gold.
As a fox, she had zero interest in the "Qing Huixi Combo" on Du Yu's tray.
The "Yu Huixi" on Fu Jianzhou's tray was much more to Prince Yan's taste.
Then, in that pair of golden fox eyes, a strange light faintly flickered as the tip of her tail hooked lightly in Fu Jianzhou's direction.
Fu Jianzhou's heart gave a little shudder.
"Whoosh~"
An exquisite face quietly surfaced; Bai Lan appeared with a hint of reproach, her eyes covering Fu Jianzhou's.
What a little Demon Fox. You really dare, huh?
"Fox eyes, Mengnan, cover them, quick!" Du Yu called out.
Li Mengnan hastily reached out and covered that pair of soul-stealing fox eyes.
"Nyaa!" Xiaoyan shook her little head in displeasure. Peeking through the girl's slender fingers, she blinked as she looked outside again.
Amidst the playful fussing, everyone had already walked out of the ordinary woods, now surrounded on all sides by Wind Peach Trees.
A gentle breeze blew, and the intertwined pink and white peach blossoms were dazzlingly beautiful.
Each Wind Peach Tree stood quietly, its flowering branches swaying lightly in the wind, a breathtaking sight.
Walking in this peach grove, Bai Lan also found herself "enchanted", and for the second time at that.
As Li Mengnan had said earlier, Fu Jianzhou had helped Mengnan move and plant trees.
So this wasn't Bai Lan's first time wandering through a Wind Peach Tree Forest.
But every time she walked the more than ten miles of this peach grove, Bai Lan couldn't help stopping to admire it.
"You really get the xianxia vibe." Du Yu smacked his lips in wonder, full of admiration.
Wind Peach Trees were Demonic Plants, and their blossoms bloomed year-round.
Their most distinctive feature was that Wind Peach Trees were constantly shedding petals, but the falling petals had no physical form; they were pure Energy Bodies.
In other words, once you stepped into this peach blossom forest, you were bathing in a constant shower of peach blossoms.
"My dad didn't buy this many at first." Li Mengnan's gaze grew a bit dreamy as she extended her palm, letting a petal fall into it.
The peach petal quietly shattered, turning into specks of Wind Demon Breath that melted into Li Mengnan's palm.
Li Mengnan: "The more I liked it, the more he bought."
The peach forest actually stretched all the way to the mountain gate; Du Yu was dumbfounded!
Uncle Li really was a total daughter-slave.
All the savings he'd built up over so many years, who knew if they could even cover this...
"Seven Treasures Temple." Du Yu craned his neck as far back as he could, looking up at the few flowing, elegant characters on the name plaque above the newly restored mountain gate.
Li Jing praised, "The calligraphy is really good!"
Li Mengnan: "Seven Treasures Master was controlling my body when he wrote it himself... Eh, I see Master Qing."
Everyone looked up.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, on the cliffside of the mountain, there stood a massive Wind Peach Tree.
Clearly, its Level far surpassed any of the Wind Peach Trees in the Ten-Mile Peach Grove!
Wind Peach Trees weren't particularly tall Demonic Plants to begin with; even at Fourth LevelΒ·Spirit Level, they were only about eight meters high.
But this enormous Wind Peach Tree was nearly twenty meters tall; it should be a General-level Demonic Plant.
At the moment, a graceful figure stood beneath the tree, bathed in the drifting petals.
