Legend has it that in ancient times there was a peach spirit. In each peach blossom paradise, a single peach might appear, growing on the trunk of a tree. These peaches were sweet and delicious, and eating them could enhance one's spiritual power, making one's mouth water. If left unpicked, these peaches would grow for nine lifetimes, absorbing the essence of day and night, and could transform into fairies. The phrase "a face as red as peach blossoms" refers to this woman, whose beauty was unparalleled. Having her by one's side could prolong life, and her inner elixir was an unparalleled medicine, capable of bringing the dead back to life.

Nestled atop a mountain shrouded in mist, peach blossoms bloom in abundance, birds chirp and sing, creating an ethereal atmosphere. Among a thousand peach trees, a solitary, towering tree stands out, its trunk remarkably large, its leaves as tender as jade. Raindrops glide gently from the tips of its leaves, sliding down to drip onto the green grass beneath.

Huge raindrops fell on Dou Shiliu's tender green body, causing her to sway slightly as she comfortably absorbed the raindrops.

A gentle breeze rustled through the grass, swaying her body. She lazily twisted among the leaves, seemingly in gratitude to the peach tree.

Thanks, little sister.

The peach tree trembled slightly, and a petal fell onto her head.

She transformed into grass, gained sentience by the peach spirit's side, and, thanks to the spirit's good fortune, stayed with it for nine lifetimes. Yet, the peach still never fell to earth and became a human.

Dou Shiliu guesses that this peach is her cannon fodder boss, and now she's turned into a girl.

After all, legend has it that Xiantao is a female fairy.

The white group was very confused. Could the Supreme God accept them becoming a girl?

The sixteen-bean plant lazily stretches out its leaves, allowing sunlight to penetrate its lower stems and leaves. A faint green fluorescence emanates from its delicate body, swaying gently in the breeze.

She only has a tiny bit of spiritual energy each day, but luckily she has plenty of ancient manuals in her mind. She can find one and cultivate slowly. There's plenty of time; there's no need to rush.

My slightly light body shivered, and I decided to take a nap.

There's no way around it, all that's needed for cultivation is to sleep.

A rustling sound of footsteps came from not far away, and a cry of surprise woke the insects on the leaves.

"Senior brother, look ahead!"

Die Rong'er tugged at the man beside her, her voice filled with surprise, "It's the Jade Peach Grove! The immortal peaches Father mentioned must be inside!"

Xie Louyu looked around and saw that the vibrant peach trees covered the entire hillside.

He took her hand and said, "Junior Sister, let's go inside and take a look."

Brushing aside the weeds and fallen leaves, they stepped inside. Legend has it that the largest peach tree grows in the center, so they walked straight in.

"Host, someone's here."

Dou Shiliu, still half-asleep, squinted and looked ahead. A young man in white and a young woman in the prime of their youth were walking straight towards her.

In the wilderness

People who come here are probably trying to get rid of her cannon fodder boss.

Dou Shiliu used his spiritual power to transfer it to the giant vine beside him.

As Xie Louyu stepped three meters into the peach tree, a huge vine lashed out at him.

Xie Louyu nimbly scooped up Die Rong'er and dodged to a spot behind them.

Watching the vines in the air warily, it guessed the peach was inside, guarded by plant spirits.

He drew his sword and said solemnly:

"Junior Sister, draw your weapon! Watch out for the vines!"

Die Rong'er cast a spell on the spot, and a red sword appeared in her hand.

Xie Louyu charged at the vines with his sword, slashing them in two.

A rustling sound came from the grass on the ground, and vines, like snakes, darted out from all directions, trapping Xie Louyu and Die Rong'er in place.

These vines were unexpectedly difficult to deal with.

With a flash of the sword, the attacking vines were cut in two. Die Rong'er's face flushed red, and she breathed slightly, "Senior brother, why do I feel like someone is controlling these vines?"

These vines are good at sneaking up from the shadows!

She couldn't keep up with the physical demands.

Xie Louyu could definitely feel it; these vines were draining their energy.

He slashed down the attacking vines again, gritting his teeth and roaring, "May I ask which immortal senior orchestrated this? Would you please come out and meet me?"

Dou Shiliu chuckled lazily, watching Xie Louyu from the ground, his eyes constantly darting towards the peach grove, trying to figure out where she was hiding.

But he certainly couldn't have imagined that she was a small blade of grass under the peach tree.

Although she had cultivated for nine lifetimes, she was still just a weed, only now becoming a celestial herb, and only then would she have a slight chance of transforming into human form.

Xie Louyu struggled to dodge the attacks of the vines.

The vines in front of him suddenly stopped and drew a few words on the ground.

"Leave here"

Die Rong'er bit her lip in a disheveled state, "Senior brother, what should we do?"

These vines clearly prevented them from stepping inside.

But they had finally found something to celebrate their father's birthday—the very peaches they had always dreamed of!

She was somewhat unwilling to leave.

Xie Louyu's eyes also showed reluctance, but plants that have become spirits are usually ancient monsters that are thousands of years old, and they are not easy to deal with.

Gritting his teeth, he could only sheathe his sword. "Let's go."

He could only find something else to replace his master's gift.

Xie Louyu was leaving, and Die Rong'er couldn't handle it alone, so she could only follow him away resentfully.

She'll come back and meet this fairy later.

Watching their figures gradually disappear, Dou Shiliu slowly withdrew his spiritual power.

Fortunately, she cultivated the immortal herb; otherwise, her spiritual power would have been insufficient.

However, she still felt a bit weak in spiritual energy today, and Dou Shiliu curled up her leaf tip and fell into a deep sleep.

At this moment, every leaf of the enormous peach tree emitted bursts of green light, and the immortal peaches on the trunk shimmered red inside. A tiny egg within, slowly cracking, was faintly visible through the light.

The fragrance of peaches permeated the entire peach grove, causing every peach tree to vibrate, and wisps of green light traveled from the trees into the egg.

The eggshell inside gradually cracked, and a tiny beam of light swirled inside the peach.

Whoosh... Petals of peach blossoms drifted down to the ground, covering it in a thick layer.

Amidst the peach blossoms, a delicate pink figure flickers faintly. Dressed in pink with a bare face, her long, dark hair is tied back by a peach blossom, cascading down her back. A few lifelike petals adorn her delicate willow-leaf eyebrows, and a small, pink smile plays on her lips. Her pink eyes hold tiny peach blossoms, making her breathtakingly beautiful.

Tao Yaoyan gazed curiously at her own body, her delicate hand lightly touching her cheek. The smooth, creamy texture of her skin caused the peach blossoms in her eyes to tremble slightly.

Her slender, almond-shaped eyes were like those of a bewitching enchantress.

I gently lifted my foot and stepped onto the flower-paved path, the flower bells by my ankles jingling softly.

Tao Yaoyan looked down at the tree trunk and saw a stalk of grass sleeping.

Her narrow eyes gazed gently at the small blade of grass.

He cultivated for nine lifetimes, and she protected him for nine lifetimes.

Now it's his turn to protect her.

With a gentle touch of her jade-like hand, she touched the tip of Dou Shiliu's leaf, a glimmer of light flashed, and the tender grass vanished instantly.

Tao Yaoyan slowly rose and walked towards the peach tree that had given birth to him. He raised his hand and stroked the trunk, a faint glow flickering within. He then put the peach tree away and disappeared into the peach grove.

The once vibrant peach grove gradually withered after his departure.

The peach grove was born for him; having given birth to him, it would naturally lose its vitality.
