“WA...” A round of gasp echoed out, and Dugu Xiao Yi and Han Yan Meng directly jumped up!
<i>One thousand years!</i>
Such a heaven shocking good news caused all the girls to erupt with joy, and they nearly fainted from the excitement!
Eternal youth, and a thousand years of beauty!
<i>Could this be a dream? Even if it’s a dream, please let me dream a little longer, don’t wake me up!</i>
Since ancient times, beauties and famous generals did not grow to let the world see their heads of white <sup>1</sup> !
The merciless des of time was what beauties like them feared and hated the most! It was undoubtedly the most terrifying thing in the world to them! If they could retain their youthful looks, even if it was for a short moment, countless women would pursue it with everything they have!
Things like cosmetics and beauty care products were designed to target this part of a woman’s heart, which was why they could see so well...
Even if it was only a temporary cover, it was enough to make people go crazy over them, not to mention a magical thing like this which could maintain a person’s youth and looks for a thousand years? This was something that all the girls in the world would die to get!
Even Mei Xue Yan also had a strangely agitated look in her eyes!
All seven girls sprang to their feet in an instant as they advanced towards Jun Mo Xie. All of them were rubbing their fists and rolling their sleeves up threateningly as they threatened, “Quickly hand over the stuff!”
Jun Mo Xie nearly peed his pants in fear as he backed up against the wall!
Who would have thought that these few girls would suddenly explode with such a powerful force...
<i>This brother nearly passed out; so the lure of beauty and youth is actually so terrifying...</i>
Cornered and threatened, Young Master Jun could only take out the previously prepared five sets of Seven Colored Holy Fruits. After that, he activated the Power of Wood in the Hongjun Pagoda and created another seven sets of fruits. Then, he reached into the Exquisite Lotus pond and pulled out aparativelyrge piece of Exquisite Lotus Root...
“Everyone... my Queens... this little one only has this much; it’s all presented before you... this little one does not dare to hide any for myself... please spare this little one ah...” Jun Mo Xie served the stuff up with tears in his eyes. From his pathetic form, it seemed as if he’d been robbed a hundred times...
Seven people, seven sets of the Holy Fruit. The huge piece of lotus root was also divided into seven portions, one for each person. The Exquisite Lotus root that Young Master Jun had taken out was trulyrge enough. Even after being cut into seven pieces, each piece was still over three times the size of the one at the Heaven Saint Pce. Not to mention the size, the effects of it were also vastly superior. For the stuff produced in the Hongjun Pagoda, how would it be of poor quality...
Looking at the irresistible temptation before them, the girls could not help but turn slightly short of breath as their faces grew red...
Guan Qing Han picked up one set and looked it over curiously before bringing it to her nose and sniffing deeply. After that, she looked at Jun Mo Xie in a queer manner and asked, “En, howe there’s only this much? Mo Xie... aren’t you eating any?”
“Ah, for the time being, I only have seven sets. There’s seven of you here, just enough for one set per person.” Jun Mo Xie replied as he shook his head internally. <i>Does it matter... whether I eat or not? I’m not a girl, and I’m not afraid of growing old...</i>
“Then...” An extremelyplicated look appeared on Guan Qing Han’s face, and her jade-like hands trembled lightly. After a long time, she gritted her teeth and controlling herself forcefully, she ced the Seven Colored Holy Fruits and the Exquisite Lotus back onto the table. As the two items left her hand, one could clearly see the strong struggle in her eyes.
However, she still put the two miraculous treasures back down and step back two steps. Closing her eyes, she said with a somewhat pale face. “If you don’t eat... I won’t eat either!”
“Why?” Jun Mo Xiewas truly shocked. When Guan Qing Han put down the Seven Colored Holy Fruits and the Exquisite Lotus, she had undoubtedly justpleted an intense battle in her heart!
Anyone with eyes would be able to see how intense that internal struggle was! But Jun Mo Xie had not expected that Guan Qing Han would actually make such a choice!
“Why?...” Guan Qing Han’s color slowly returned to her face. However, her forehead was already lined with sweat. Sighing lethargically, she said, “We care about our appearance, but have you considered who it is for? A gentleman will die for the patron who recognizes his worth, and a girl will doll herself up for the man who loves her! The reason a girl wants to protect her beauty has always been for one reason... for the man she loves!”
Guan Qing Han looked deeply at Jun Mo Xie and said in a slow manner: “If you don’t eat it, you will inevitably grow old. Even if you’re not scared of aging, you will still grow old... At that time, even if we still have beauty enough to topple countries and cities, what is the meaning in that? Since you won’t eat, I will also refuse to eat! Let us grow old together then. I believe that that is also a very happy thing. Could it be that the words ‘living together to a ripe old age’ is only said for fun?”
“Qing Han!” Jun Mo Xie felt a heavy tremor in his heart, as if the oceans were flipping over!
He had never thought that the cold and proud Guan Qing Han would actually say such words!
This girl who looked so indifferent, actually held such extreme emotions!
For the sake of Jun Mo Xie, she was actually willing to let go of the chance for eternal youth! She would rather give up her country toppling beauty in order to apany him and grow old...
“Sister Qing Han is right, I won’t eat it either.” This time, it was Han Yan Meng who said that. Following that, Dugu Xiao Yi, Ke’er, and the rest also ced their portions back on the table...
Mei Xue Yan’s face was filled with an incredibly touched and relieved look...
Jun Mo Xie felt a sour feeling on his nose, and he coughed lightly a few times to clear his emotions. Smiling lightly, he said, “Ah, you’ve all misunderstood me; when I said that I wasn’t eating it, I meant it as I’m not eating it temporarily. There’s only seven sets right now, but in just a short time, there will be a lot more of this stuff. The seven of you are just the lucky winners of this first harvest, that’s all. Not mentioning the other stuff, we have a living Rainbow Holy Tree right now... Although it doesn’t bear a lot of fruit, it’s still enough for us to eat... not just us, Grandpa, Mother, Third Uncle, Third Aunt, and the rest will also get some. It’s just a matter of sooner orter...”
“There’s another matter... Third Aunt is pregnant now, and she cannot consume such stuff yet, in case there’s an ident... Let’s not tell her for now, until after the child is born... En, at that time, the second batch should be almost ready. We can use it as a present!”
“You baddie, why didn’t you say so earlier? My heart was almost broken just now by having to let go of this thing. Who asked you big baddie to be a teensy bit more valuable than these spirit herbs...”
Dugu Xiao Yi pouted her mouth andined. A secondter, sheughed happily and beckoned to everyone. “Comeee, everyone,e and eat!” Elder sister Qing Han, you should eat quickly as well... From now on, you don’t have to worry that there’s nobody to appreciate your beauty anymore. Third Young Master Jun will be able to admire you till a ripe old age! However, the world will never see a single white hair on us beauties... HAHA...”
Guan Qing Han’s face turned red, and she lowered her head deeply... However, her eyes were filled with happiness... She once again held the Seven Colored Holy Fruits and the Exquisite Lotus tightly in her hands...
“Alright, you should eat it quickly now.” Jun Mo Xie sighed heavily and said as he controlled his emotions. “I’ll protect you while you cultivate. Later on, the newly acquired energy will charge past the Xuan Qi barriers of your body. In other words, it will attract a lightning tribtion. At that time, we’ll gather together and go through it together.”
All the girls nodded their heads.
Dugu Xiao Yi, who could not wait, had already popped a fruit into her mouth...
————————
Around half a dayter...
Lightning arched across the sky above Tian Fa Forest, and the winds and rain fell like a thick wall...
That huge storm eye in the sky seemed to be telling everyone. <i>There’s someone breaking through here! And, it’s not just one person...</i>
Such a sight was incredibly shocking; who had ever seen so many people undergoing the Heavenly Tribtion together?
In that case, just how deep was the strength of this Evil Monarch Manor?
The Heavenly Tribtion lightning fell the entire afternoon, only dissipating when the sky was about to turn ck... When the people in Tian Fa rushed to the site, they discovered to their shock that everything was perfectly peaceful...
If it was just peaceful, that would be fine. But there weren’t any traces of any lightning tribtion there at all...
This matter was truly shocking!
Such a phenomenon was incredibly difficult to exin. The only possible exnation was that the person undergoing the lightning tribtion, did not dodge any of the lightning strikes at all, facing the entire thing fully and alsopletely dissipitating its might such that not even a single shred of it touched the ground.
The instant that this only usible exnation was raised, it was immediately shot down. This exnation that seemed reasonable was simply too ridiculous andpletely impossible!
No one in the world was capable of doing this since ancient times till now!
Even the creator of Xuan Qi cultivation, the Nine Nether First Young Master would likely not be able to do it!
However, apart from this ‘ludicrous’ exnation, was there any other way to exin this phenomenon?
On the seventh day of the sixth month, 1,000 li north of Tian Fa Forest...
As they looked at the endless span of dark clouds and the lightning that fell like rain, Miao Dao and Miao Jian’s faces turned heavy. Miao Xiao Miao wore a simple dress and stood behind the two of them, looking curiously at the strange sight. Her expression was exceedingly calm.
Although Miao Xiao Miao was already at the Venerable realm, her understanding of Xuan cultivation wasparatively weak. Although the Heavenly Tribtion she had experienced that day was shockingly powerful and was fraught with dangers, all the risks had been borne by Jun Mo Xie alone! She could be said to have walked over a precipice as if strolling on a highway!
From what she knew, this Heavenly Tribtion was still notparable to her Heavenly Tribtion that day. Thus, she naturally did not feel much about this...
But Miao Dao and Miao Jian was widely experienced. How could they not see the kind of danger in this lightning tribtion!
Miao Jian raised his eye and said in a heavy tone. “That is the direction that Tian Fa Forest is in! From my estimations, the Heavenly Tribtion should be taking ce at the fringes of Tian Fa Forest. If I’m not wrong, someone powerful has broken through in Tian Fa Forest!”
