At this ti, more than four hundred people were already suffering from Immortal Cancer.
And many others had not grabbed the Seven-colored Peaches.
Initially, after contracting Immortal Cancer, fear set in, but as more people around them began to suffer from it, that fear waned significantly. After all, in the early stages of Immortal Cancer, it brought no negative effects, not even pain, so future concerns were for future days.
As for these people...
They were basically dood to die.
If one or two had Immortal Cancer, if they were lucky, they might acquire six threads of the Luck of Yin Soul from the Seven-colored Peaches, and perhaps purchase the remaining three threads outside, enough to make one thread of Yin Emperor’s Fortune.
But with so many people here suffering from Immortal Cancer, thinking of acquiring the Luck of Yin Soul outside was hopeless.
The Luck of Yin Soul is extrely rare in the market, and with so many buyers appearing at once, its price would be driven sky-high, and what awaited them was death.
As their Cultivation Realms fell, in that irreversible despair, they awaited death.
...
"Chen Qiu’s luck is still that good."
In the corner, Miss Bai looked at Chen Qiu’s back and spoke softly.
"Luck?"
Jiang Buping sneered without saying much, thinking this girl’s vision was too limited. Such talk was aningless; no one’s luck could be this good. The situation was evidently because the Artifact Spirit of this Secret Realm had awakened its consciousness and started blatantly favoring Chen Qiu.
What puzzled him was.
What price did Chen Qiu pay that made the Artifact Spirit this crazy? Not hiding it at all, showing its cards openly, almost as if announcing that all significant opportunities in this Secret Realm were for Chen Qiu alone.
He did not pick a single fruit.
Just observed.
The sa was true here; the opportunities were useless to him, and Miss Bai similarly didn’t pick any fruit; to her, the shadow of Immortal Cancer was too great. Even with a 1% chance of encountering it, she didn’t want to risk it.
...
"How much do you know about Chen Qiu?"
Prince Wei from Prince Wei Mansion stood among the crowd with her companion, the Ancestor of Taiping Prefecture from the Second Grade Continent, looking in Chen Qiu’s direction. She brought her companion to the Ascension Conference to broaden his horizons.
After all, the "Ascension Conference" happens only once a year, and missing this one ant there might be no opportunity in the future.
She initially beca involved with the Ancestor of Taiping Prefecture because of the Fairies Returning Grace, and over ti she developed feelings for him, not because of any particularly good qualities he possessed.
It was rely that, as a woman, managing a power was too exhausting, and she needed a shoulder to lean on. The Ancestor of Taiping Prefecture appeared at just the right ti, and everything happened naturally, although her companion’s Cultivation was still sowhat weak, despite now being on the Third Grade Continent.
But there was still a long way to the Fifth Grade Immortal Realm, and she was doing her best to support her companion so that he would reach the Fifth Grade Immortal Realm, stand by her side, and beco her support.
"Uh..."
After hesitating for a while, the Ancestor of Taiping Prefecture said, "I’ve not t him much, my understanding of him is rely based on things that happened on the Vast Continent, basically sumd up in one word, ’Strong’. If two words, then ’Very Strong’.
"If I must offer any advice, it would be not to provoke him."
"..."
Prince Wei rolled her eyes at the Ancestor of Taiping Prefecture: "Do you need to say that? Who would dare offend him?"
Yet monts later, a soft sigh escaped her lips.
"Can’t you try harder? I’m too tired; I want to step down. Why should I, as a woman, be at the forefront? I also want to retire and raise children."
"Well... I’ll try my best."
"Try what?"
"Try to make you pregnant. With our Cultivation, it’s hard to conceive."
With a dark look, Prince Wei said word by word, "Who said anything about that!"
"Don’t you want to retire and raise kids? Without pregnancy, how do you raise kids?"
"I ant for you to elevate your Cultivation as soon as possible, reach the Tidal Immortal Realm, and then I will abdicate in your favor, letting you be Prince Wei!"
"Oh..." the Ancestor of Taiping Prefecture murmured quietly, "This matter cannot be rushed; not everyone is Chen Qiu."
Prince Wei shook her head, not intending to continue the discussion. Suddenly rembering sothing, she grinned with a fake smile, speaking softly, "How was the taste of that fairy the other day?"
"Not good."
"Really not good."
The Ancestor of Taiping Prefecture’s body stiffened at these words, imdiately shaking his head seriously, "Honestly, it felt the sa as a day pig, nowhere near as good as you, my lady."
A few days ago, when she went to the Third Grade Continent to find the Ancestor of Taiping Prefecture, a fairy appeared to repay kindness. As she was there, she naturally stopped it at once, ready to scold the fairy away.
The fairy started weeping bitterly on her knees.
She said her entire family was on the brink of extinction, and if she couldn’t repay the kindness in ti and attain "Returning Grace," her family would be wiped out. She pleaded with her sister to show rcy, promising... to be quick.
Seeing the fairy kneeling on the ground in anguish, the filthy words she was about to utter were swallowed back.
She could completely empathize with the fairy.
Unless one was on the brink of life and death, who would willingly submit to a stranger they had never t? She was in the sa position at the ti, and in the end, she could not bear it and chose to acquiesce.
