But if that's the case, how do you explain the peaches at the foot of the mountain? Someone must have been able to enter the peach orchard and pick those peaches.
The two entered the maze again. Neither of them was particularly skilled at breaking mazes, but this one wasn't too difficult. They solved it in a short time once they got serious.
After the illusion dissipated, what appeared before the two was an ordinary-looking peach orchard. People dressed as farmers were harvesting peaches from the trees, just like an ordinary orchard.
Qin Weiyu raised her hand and touched the peach tree's branches and leaves. Apart from being full of vitality and spiritual energy, she found nothing unusual. She then led Yan Susu closer to the busy people.
A middle-aged man saw them and said with some surprise, "You two young ladies don't look familiar. Are you from another town? What are you doing here?"
Yan Susu knew that Qin Weiyu was not talkative, so she jumped in and said, "Uncle, we came here to look at the pretty things and have fun. The peaches here look delicious. Can you sell us two?"
"It's free, you two can have some, but hurry back."
"This place looks beautiful; we'd like to stay a little longer."
The man then looked at the two girls, who were very pretty.
The older ones were around sixteen or seventeen, and the younger ones were thirteen or fourteen, slightly older than their own children.
He then lowered his guard and said:
"There's a group of evil Taoist priests around here who are always trying to break in and steal the immortal's treasures. So the immortal set up a maze to prevent them from getting in. So you should hurry home and not stay on this mountain any longer, or you might run into those bad guys."
Yan Susu glanced at Qin Weiyu, and the two of them had their own thoughts. Then they thanked the middle-aged man and left, returning to the outskirts of the peach grove.
"Senior sister, what should we do?"
"Let's go in and take a look."
"Great! I knew Senior Sister was very brave, much stronger than those two Senior Brothers. They're men, what cowards!"
Brave? Qin Weiyu found it somewhat amusing; this little girl was truly adorable.
“We’ve been cultivating in the Void Sacrifice Illusionary Realm for almost a year, and our skills have improved so much. Plus, we have the gifts from Liu San. There’s nowhere we wouldn’t dare to go with the five of us! But our two senior brothers are so worried about this and that. It’s so boring. Senior sister, from now on, we’ll go down the mountain together and not take them with us.”
“They are being cautious, and that makes sense. You are still young and have no experience of going down the mountain to gain experience, so safety is the most important thing,” Qin Weiyu said, patting Yan Susu’s head.
"Wow, this is the first time Senior Sister has said so much! Okay, I'll listen to you, Senior Sister. So, are we going or not?"
"Let's go in and take a look. I don't think this peach tree spirit has any ill intentions towards humans."
