Chapter 211: Love Peach King

“It’s a hidden space within the peach trees’ garden.” Zhen Yuan said.

Because he had spent a lot of time studying space laws, he immediately realised that they hadn’t fallen into a formation but were pulled into a hidden space.

“Brother Yuan…, look…” Shen Xu excitedly pointed and quickly continued.

“That’s a beauty peach. The one next to it is a blood peach…”

In this way, Shen Xu pointed out seven types of peaches including the love peach.

“This place is a treasure trove.” Shen Xu said but soon frowned.

“Brother Yuan, we have heard a lot about the peach trees’ garden and the love peach but nothing about these other precious peaches. What’s going on?”

“There are two possibilities.”

“Which two?”

“Maybe the hidden space has a restriction preventing others from talking about the other peaches. Alternatively, maybe these peaches didn’t reveal themselves when other couples entered the hidden space.”

“I hope it’s the second possibility.” Shen Xu said in a solemn voice.

If it was the first possibility, he and Zhen Yuan would be in danger.

After all, other people may not know what was in the hidden space but the sword city lord couple knew.

Considering that, it was not an unfounded worry that the sword couple would pursue them in hopes of getting the peaches.

“It doesn’t matter.” Zhen Yuan said, rubbing his wife’s hair.

“We are disguised and haven’t revealed our identity to anyone. Even if the sword couple hear about us, they won’t know where to start.”

“Fortunately.” Shen Xu nodded.

“Don’t you want to eat the peaches? Let’s go.” Zhen Yuan said and led his wife to the nearest each tree.

The nearest tree was the beauty peach.

According to Shen Xu’s alchemy inheritance, the beauty peach could be eaten raw or refined into beauty pills.

When eaten raw, the beauty peach could beautify, revitalise the skin, remove signs of aging, and stall aging.

Similarly, the beauty pill had the same effects but on a smaller scale.

However, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu advanced to the golden core and nascent soul realm at a very young age.

As a result, they looked young and didn’t need the de-aging effects of the beauty peach.

That said, who didn’t like being beautiful?

Thinking of this, Shen Xu harvested all the fruits on the beauty peach tree and happily stored them in jade preservation boxes.

“Brother Yuan, how long does it take for a beauty peach tree to grow and bear fruits?”

“About three thousand years.”

“Three thousand years…” Shen Xu frowned.

He only got one thousand beauty peaches.

No matter how he calculated, he didn’t think one thousand peaches could last three thousand years.

However, he didn’t dwell on it and happily trotted to the blood peach.

“This peach can replenish blood, remove blood poisons and clots, and rejuvenate blood essence among other uses.” He said.

Unfortunately, unlike the beauty peach tree which bore one thousand fruits, there were only two hundred fruits on the blood peach tree.

Still, Shen Xu was happy and eagerly looked at Zhen Yuan.

“Brother Yuan, you always get in trouble after losing blood. These blood peaches are perfect for you.”

After saying that, Shen Xu collected the peaches with a happy look on his face.

Subsequently, Shen Xu collected twenty-four marrow cleansing peaches, nine qi cleansing peaches, and nine rejuvenating peaches.

When that was done, they arrived in front of the love peach.

“There is only one fruit.” Shen Xu couldn’t help but frown.

“There are more but each couple can only share one. Also, the peach must be eaten here and can’t be taken out.”

“Is that so?” The double asked but quickly peppered up.

“Let’s eat it quickly.”

The love peach was only the size of two fists.

However, it exuded an intoxicating fragrance that made the two people a little addicted.

“Brother Yuan, do you want to study it’s laws?” Shen Xu asked but Zhen Yuan shook his head.

“They are too complex. I can’t understand them for the time being.”

“Awh…” Shen Xu said, looking a little lost.

“Don’t worry.” Zhen Yuan rubbed his wife’s hair and quickly continued.

“The purple stick tree I found in the Demon Plants’ Forest is called the Law Tree. It contains all the laws of the world. Even if I don’t comprehend the laws on the love peach tree, I will eventually encounter them as I continue to refine the Law Peach Tree.”

“It’s not the same.” Shen Xu said, still feeling it was a pity that they didn’t have time for Zhen Yuan to comprehend the love peach tree laws.

From what Zhen Yuan told him, the Law Tree had all laws.

However, they presented in their most basic units.

Equating to Earth, studying from the Law Tree was like learning the alphabet.

However, even if one knew all the letters, they still had to study words and their meanings.

Considering that, Zhen Yuan couldn’t just rely on the Law Tree.

After learning from the Law Tree, he needed to observe the world to understand the different combinations of the laws.

Otherwise, his understanding of the law would be too pedantic and difficult to apply.

“Xiaoxu, the love peach has a core. Although the core cannot be planted, it’s not a problem to study it.”

“I forgot about that.” The double said with a sheepish smile.

A moment later, he reached for the love peach, picked it and looked at Zhen Yuan.

“Brother Yuan, have the first bite.”

Soon after, the two shared the peach and didn’t stop eating until they finished the meat.

After finishing the peach, Shen Xu suddenly felt hot.

“I feel hot.” He complained looking at Zhen Yuan with an aggrieved expression.

“The peach is taking effect. It will be over soon.” Zhen Yuan soothed, rubbing his wife’s hair.

However, it wasn’t over soon.

At first, Zhen Yuan and Shen Xu only felt a little hot.

This lasted for an hour before their bodies gradually cooled down.

After their felt better, the two smiled at each other, ready to walk to the last peach true.

Unfortunately, they thought too well.

A moment after their body temperature returned to normal, a sudden pain invaded their bodies and both fell to the ground.

Even Zhen Yuan couldn’t resist the terrible pain and followed Shen Xu to roll on the ground.

The pain didn’t stop until three days later.

When it stopped, Zhen Yuan forced his body to roll to Shen Xu’s side and cautiously touched the double.

“Xiaoxu, are you okay?” He asked in a hoarse voice.

“I am fine.” Shen Xu said, reaching for Zhen Yuan’s hand.

He didn’t want to talk or move.

All he wanted was to lie there and forget the pain they had just experienced.

At the same time, he cursed all the rumours about the love peach.

He and Zhen Yuan had heard many rumours about the love peach and even read books about it.

However, none of the rumours and books mentioned pain.

If they knew refining the love peach involved pain, they would have been better prepared.

Unfortunately, they knew nothing and were maliciously ambushed.

“Xiaoxu, ordinary love peaches aren’t so difficult to refine. What we refined was the love peach king.” Zhen Yuan suddenly said.

“Love peach king? How come I don’t know anything about it?”

“Normally, fruit kings appear after spiritual fruit trees live to a certain age. However, the love peach is different.”

“What do you mean?”

“The love peach that appears on a tree depends on the couple. Because of this, no two love peaches are the same.” Zhen Yuan started and quickly continued.

“Also, the appearance of the love peach king doesn’t depend on the age of the tree but on the feelings of the couple.”

Shen Xu was happy and relieved when he heard this.

“Brother Yuan, we got a love peach king. Doesn’t it mean our feelings are very deep?” He asked in a happy voice.

“That’s what it means. Also, we have made the most powerful and restrictive form of Taoist companionship contract. It’s not strange for us to get a love peach king.”

Zhen Yuan was also happy.

Although he and Shen Xu rarely expressed their feelings, they knew the other’s position in their heart.

Receiving the love peach king was just a confirmation of what they already knew.

“Brother Yuan, I am very happy.” Shen Xu chuckled, despite the weakness in his body.

“I am also happy.”

“Wait…” Shen Xu started; his eyes narrowed into slits.

“How do you know about the love peach king?”

“Unexpectedly, the love peach was mentioned in an obscure book at the library of the Divine Rainbow Academy. I learned about the love peach king from there.”

“Is that so” What’s the effect of the love peach king?”

“It has all the effects of the ordinary love peach and many more.” Zhen Yuan started.

“In addition to the three ordinary effects, there is also the ability to share qi and soul power….”
