As she spoke, Princess Bao Shou's expression inexplicably fell.
Tears seed to be brewing in her bright eyes.
Seeing this, Gou Lv'er was utterly confused, while Zhu Quan hurriedly explained at their side,
"My sister knows about the deeds of Yunhua Immortal and Lingji Fairy, and admires them greatly. It's just such a pity that Lingji Fairy perished due to heavenly jealousy."
"Whenever she ntions this, it's always with lantation."
With Zhu Quan's explanation, Gou Lv'er imdiately understood.
He nodded in understanding, Bean Shaped Eyebrows drooping down with a look of finding a kindred spirit in Princess Bao Shou, he also sighed and said,
"Who can say otherwise? Lingji Sister was such a good person."
"Back then at the Spirit Treasure Sect, who among the disciples did not admire her."
Zhu Quan, standing by their side, silently criticized in his heart.
He thought, "My sister doesn't just admire Yunhua Immortal and Lingji Fairy; she's an enthusiastic supporter of their mysterious relationship, even personally ordering many novelists, painters, and storytellers from the mortal streets to create works based on the two female immortals' deeds. So are acceptable, but others are not."
The Thirteenth Prince did not say it, but Princess Bao Shou saw her imperial brother's thoughts.
She gave him a dangerous glance and then diverted the topic to the devil immortal Gou Lv'er, "The immortal peaches ntioned by those female fairy sisters earlier, are they so rare Spirit Fruit? They sound strangely fragrant and delicious."
Her reminder made Gou Lv'er rember what was important.
He clapped his hands, his face showing realization, and spoke with regret,
"The two of you might not know, these past few days, everyone in the Penglai Sea knows that Master Tao Qian is cultivating a type of Immortal Plant Spirit Root called [Longevity Immortal Peach]."
"The fruit is large, fragrant, and sweet; eating one not only extends life but also brings blessings. Even within our Spirit Treasure Sect, it's considered a rare Spirit Fruit."
"According to what those Nursing Woman Bird Demons said, the True Master has now achieved Perfect rit and has produced an entire Immortal Peach Garden."
"Master Tao is not stingy; without the immortals lifting a finger, the Crystal Demon Sisters from Ascending Immortal Island will send a portion for tasting."
"Those disciples of the Lingbao, if they ask for a few peaches while passing by, I reckon they could also have a taste."
"But as a devil immortal and servant like , I'm afraid I am not fortunate enough to enjoy them."
After Gou Lv'er finished, the naive and innocent Princess Bao Shou imdiately chid in.
This girl was a food lover.
Having eaten all the delicacies from the Mortal World, once she entered the Cultivation World, she felt there were too many goodies to consu them all.
She was indifferent to the life extension and fortune-enhancing effects of the Longevity Immortal Peach, but the promise of its size, fragrance, and sweetness was very tempting.
She pulled both Gou Lv'er and her imperial brother, heading in the direction of Ascending Immortal Island, while saying,
"These immortal peaches sound especially delicious. Since that Senior Brother Tao has grown an entire peach garden, we should also pay him a visit, speak kindly to him, and see if we can get one or two to taste."
No sooner had she finished speaking than she t with simultaneous objections from the two of them.
Naturally, for different reasons.
Gou Lv'er was initially tempted, then felt awkward, and finally firmly refused, saying, "No, no, my duty is to escort you two to Bibo Island to rest; we cannot allow any complications."
Zhu Quan also revealed a yearning in his eyes, but not for the Longevity Immortal Peach. The fruit sounded tempting, but as a young noble, he did not lack lifespan.
His real interest lay in the phrase "visiting Master Tao Qian".
Externally, this Thirteenth Prince was not considered a main contender for the crown.
But being of the Imperial Family's bloodline, he naturally coveted that position.
Since that Tao Master was the first disciple of Duobao True Monarch and was regarded highly by Yunhua Immortal, he would surely beco an important figure in the Spirit Treasure Sect. It's a pity that if I had been in Southern Yue earlier, I wouldn't have been as foolish as my Third Brother. Befriending such a person would be endlessly advantageous... As his mind raced with these thoughts, the prince outwardly also rejected his sister's request.
With a solemn expression, he said,
"That's nonsense. If we are to visit Tao Master, we cannot be so hasty."
"We must proceed with proper etiquette. It's just trouble for the devil immortal brother to take us first to Bibo Island. After resting, we'll send an invitation to Ascending Immortal Island tomorrow. With the host's permission, we can then visit."
What Zhu Quan said was quite reasonable; as representatives of the contemporary Imperial Family within the Spirit Treasure Mountain Gate, they should not act impulsively.
Princess Bao Shou had no argunt against it and sulkily agreed.
However, Gou Lv'er, who overheard the conversation, also discerned the prince's cunning thoughts and couldn't help but sneer internally, "Thinking this is the Mortal World, not realizing how popular Master Tao Qian is. These past few days, I don't know how many cloud talismans and respectful invitations have flown toward Ascending Immortal Island. What's so great about the Imperial Family, here within the Spirit Treasure Mountain Gate, even the Emperor is faced with... "
Despite his contempt, the sly and clever Gou Lv'er, duty-bound, had no intention of offending anyone.
Of course, he did not bother reminding them.
He still smiled cheerfully, leading them toward the Bibo Big Island.
...
Master Tao Qian himself was unaware of these matters on Ascending Immortal Island.
At that mont, he was holding the Absolute Immortal Token, heading towards another end of the Penglai Sea.
The Absolute Immortal Sea Islands were, after all, where the Mutated Elders were confined, very far from the Mountain Gate, to prevent any accidents.
If he were to travel properly using the Auspicious Cloud Skill, it would take several days.
But with Star Zha Demon's speed, it would be quick.
Although the demon child's Star Zha Escape Technique was obviously not as fast as Buddha's "Great Freedom Heart Light Escape," it was unimaginably fast. Along the way, passing many Immortal Islands and Magic Vein Dojos, no one would bother him. Demon Sect thods were conspicuous at the Taishang Daoist Gathering but all too normal within the Spirit Treasure Sect.
