As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 1425: Chapter 386: Father and Daughter Both Crowned at the Flat Peach Victory Meeting, My Palace’s Immortal Peach Orchard Has Been Emptied Out [Monthly Ticket Requested]

Able to fully unleash the power of the Shenxiao Prison Thunder Sword.

Jialuo immediately understood, swiftly retrieving a fresh and juicy peach from the Qiankun Jade.

With his heart and mind, he manipulated the peach and handed it to Li Che.

However...

After Li Che accepted the peach, the peach wood sword remained interwoven with thunder, dark-colored lightning crackling and sparking in the air with a scorched scent.

Jialuo was stunned, what else does he want?!

Suddenly.

Jialuo Monk’s face darkened as he looked at Li Che, who wore a gentle smile, and suddenly understood everything.

Who said this Li Half-Saint was honest and decent?!

Jialuo Monk removed his Qiankun Jade, filled with heartache and indescribable sorrow.

If he could, he would immediately communicate with the divinity of the Queen Mother of the West to leave this Peach Forest.

But he couldn’t.

Li Che’s divine domain blocked his way to exit through the divinity of the Queen Mother of the West.

In other words...

If Li Che wanted to kill him, he actually could!

To survive, Jialuo Monk handed over the Qiankun Jade to Li Che.

”Li Half-Saint, please accept the fervent gift from this poor monk’s heart,” said Jialuo Monk, wearing a sincere smile.

Li Che didn’t stand on ceremony and directly tore open the Qiankun Space, tossing the Qiankun Jade inside.

Then, he dispelled the Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain.

Jialuo Monk held the Golden Eight-Ring Staff, raised one hand in salute.

”Thank you.”

With those words.

Jialuo Monk seemed unwilling to stay another moment in the Peach Orchard and immediately communicated with the divinity of the Queen Mother, leaving the Peach Orchard directly.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh——

A gentle breeze swept by.

Li Che sat cross-legged on the back of the soft Golden Lion King, as if on a genuine leather seat. To be honest, it was quite comfortable.

With a thought, each peach floated up one by one.

Jialuo, Jade Guanyin, and the Golden-haired Hou’s three peaches all floated in front of Li Che.

Adding Li Che’s own peach.

It totaled four seven-thousand-year-old peaches altogether.

”Hey...”

”There’s an extra one.”

”The Empress surely won’t ask me to give this peach away, right? She wouldn’t want to lose face, after all, this peach was picked by my skills,” Li Che laughed, speaking loudly on purpose.

This puzzled the Golden-haired Hou beneath him.

In the entire Peach Orchard, it was just the master and servant, could it be that the extra seven-thousand-year-old peach was meant for him to eat?

The Golden-haired Hou was instantly thrilled.

Li Che seemed to have read the mind of the Golden-haired Hou.

He patted its head.

”Feeding a seven-thousand-year-old peach to a dog? Dream on.”

Golden-haired Hou: ”...”

Then why were you shouting so loudly for?

Li Che chuckled, gave no further explanation, stored away the extra Chi Long Blood Peach, while the remaining three peaches gathered together.

Having an extra peach, Li Che put it away without any qualms, knowing it wouldn’t be confiscated anyway.

However, this also meant that in this seven-thousand-year-old Peach Orchard, not a single seven-thousand-year-old peach remained.

Li Che felt a deep regret.

He had originally wanted to leave a Flying Thunder Chess Piece in this seven-thousand-year-old Peach Orchard.

To visit frequently in the future.

”It’s a pity, the six-thousand-year and eight-thousand-year Peach Orchards... I can’t visit, nor can I leave my precious Flying Thunder Chess Piece there.”

Li Che sighed gently in his heart.

There seemed to be rules restricting entry to other Peach Orchards, though he didn’t know what those rules were.

Still, for now, Li Che was quite satisfied.

Dong dong dong——

The sound akin to evening drum and morning bell suddenly resounded, as if ancient deities in the depths of the Peach Orchard rang a heavy ancient bell, creating layer upon layer of invisible sound waves, spreading throughout the ruined seven-thousand-year-old Peach Orchard.

”Li Che, the foremost hero of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, has successfully gathered three seven-thousand-year-old peaches, advancing to the fourth round of the Heroic Victory Conference as this year’s Heroic Leader!”

”Successfully ascended to the nine-thousand-year-old Peach Orchard!”

...

...

Divine Capital Second City.

Above the White Jade Square.

Divinity intertwined, coiling like a jiaoshe, then transforming into the disheveled figure of the Jialuo Monk.

Jialuo Monk staggered a few steps, stepping out of the Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain, the compressed power returning, leaving him slightly unadapted.

All around was silent, gazes swiftly cast towards him.

Making Jialuo Monk feel a sense of unease, as if on pins and needles.

”Amitabha Buddha.”

The Jialuo Monk brushed off his kasaya. Losing two Dharma Bodies was indeed a profoundly distressing event for him. Most importantly, he didn’t acquire even a single Flat Peach, and he also lost the Qiankun Jade.

There was no choice; being taken as a trophy was understandable. Otherwise, Li Che... could have killed him and taken the Qiankun Jade all the same.

”The Qiankun Jade of this humble monk... is not so easily taken.”

The Jialuo Monk took a deep breath.

Then his gaze shifted to the Grandmaster Huang Mei, seated in the main banquet area of the Little Lingyin Temple.

He nodded slightly toward Grandmaster Huang Mei.

This made Grandmaster Huang Mei startle slightly, then he realized and responded with a smile and a nod.

As soon as the Jialuo Monk left the White Jade Square and returned to the main banquet area, a resounding cheer erupted across the entire square!

”It has happened, it has happened!”

”The Heroic Leader of the Heroic Victory Conference... is our Dajing cultivator!”

”Li Half-Saint is formidable, Li Half-Saint is truly invincible!”

”Li Half-Saint is the Heroic Leader, and his daughter Li Nuanxi is the Chulong Leader! In one Flat Peach Victory Meeting, the father-daughter duo claimed both titles! Qian Yuan Divine Sect alone claimed both titles! My heavens!”

...

The cheers were deafening, echoing beyond the Divine Capital’s Second City and Third City.

Those cheering within the Divine Capital Second City were, without a doubt, the disciples of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, each of them flushed with excitement.

Xi Xi stood with her hands on her hips, proudly sticking out her belly, and laughed heartily to the sky.

Her companions were equally unable to suppress their excitement.

They all ran over wildly, even Yun E, a girl known for her tranquil disposition, could not hide her excitement. Together with Xi Xi, a group of Qian Yuan Divine Sect children cheered and jumped in celebration on the attention-grabbing White Jade Square.

The Heavenly River’s water curtain cascaded with splashing streams.

Yet it couldn’t drown out the children’s joyful, unrestrained laughter.

On the White Jade Square, heroes and Chulongs from various divine sects looked on with complex and envious expressions at this scene.

A single divine sect claiming both the Heroic and Chulong titles at the Flat Peach Victory Meeting, and it was even a father-daughter duo!

Such grandeur...

Was truly rare!

No, it should be said that since the Flat Peach Victory Meeting was held, this had never happened before!

Ji Moli sat sternly at the main banquet table, dressed in black armor, his gaze intensely fixed on Xi Xi, lost in some deep thought.

The Lotus Pavilion.

Cloth Robe National Master Xie Yushen stroked his beard and chuckled: ”What a Qian Yuan Divine Sect... Having such a father and daughter is splendid luck indeed.”

Lu Chi watched the children joyfully jumping with Xi Xi with a sense of melancholy and envy.

Unfortunately, he now lacked the qualifications to join them.

Main banquet area.

The Emperor and Empress sat behind the table, the Empress listening to Li Che’s loud, bright, and candid voice resonating out of the Heavenly River water curtain, her majestic face couldn’t help but reveal a trace of daze...

She bit her ruby-red lips gently, murmuring slightly.

”Gone... Not even one left...”

”My Seven Thousand Year Old Peach Garden has been emptied!”

The Empress’s expression was dazed, her mindset a bit tumultuous.

The Emperor was also silent, and at this point, he sensed something amiss.

The peaches from the Seven Thousand Year Old Peach Garden... how could there not be a single one left?

The Empress, who managed the Peach Orchard, had never done such a thing.

Even for the Flat Peach Victory Meeting, she would have estimated the number of peaches in advance...

”My Empress, could it be someone has stolen the peaches?!”

The Emperor asked solemnly.

The Empress snapped out of it, forcing a smile.

”Your Majesty...”

”Empress, don’t be anxious, use the Tianhe Ruoyi Zan to review it.”

”If that doesn’t work... during the Temple God Resonance Festival, try communicating with the West Queen Mother Temple God to see who dared to steal the Dajing Royal Family’s peaches!”

The Emperor spoke solemnly.

The Empress’s expression changed slightly.

Communicating with the West Queen Mother Temple God?!

Indeed, they didn’t know who had stolen the peaches...

But could the West Queen Mother not know?!

As the Emperor and Empress pondered.

Thunderous cheers rang out again from inside and outside the Divine Capital Second City and Third City.

The two couldn’t help but cast their gaze toward the Heavenly River water curtain.

In the Heavenly River water curtain...

Li Che stepped on a cloud.

Gracefully entered the Nine Thousand Year Old Peach Garden!

Seeing this ethereal scene, the Empress’s eyes couldn’t help but narrow, as an extremely bold idea emerged!

This person’s demeanor...

Could it be that the Ten-thousand-year-old Peach Garden, sealed for so long...

Would open for him?!
