Following that, Shi Ling felt a branch suddenly appear behind him and then tie him up.
Shi Ling's eyes slightly opened as he could not help but curse, "F * cking retort!" Following which, Shi Ling's entire body was hanged and he arrived at the small island in front of the lake. He saw an old face on the peach tree that looked like an old granny who had passed the prime of her life.
Just like that, Shi Ling was suspended in midair, unable to move at all. At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng's voice suddenly sounded in Shi Ling's heart, "Shi Ling, be careful, that is a Peach Tree Demon with a thousand years of cultivation."
Shi Ling was stunned and quickly replied in his heart: "No way, didn't you say that there are no thousand year old Demonic Beast in this forest?"
Bai Xiaosheng said: "Yes, I was talking about the Demonic Beast, but I didn't talk about the plants!"
The corner of Shi Ling's eyes twitched. He felt that he had been tricked to death. He immediately asked: "Then what should I do now?"
Shi Ling was very clear that he was no match for the thousand-year-old tree demon. The tree demon could easily destroy him with a single breath. However, Bai Xiaosheng said, "Think of a way yourself!"
Bai Xiaosheng's attitude was the same as before. Only when Shi Ling was on the brink of death would he save Shi Ling.
Shi Ling almost wanted to greet Bai Xiaosheng's family, but in the end, he sighed and did not bother with him anymore. He looked towards Peach Tree Demon and found that the huge old face was smiling at him, the wrinkles were all squeezed together and it looked extremely ugly, but to Shi Ling, it was nothing. He just coughed and laughed, "Senior, what orders do you have for me to come here?"
Since Bai Xiaosheng refused to help him, he could only think of a way to protect himself. In the face of an absolute power gap, Shi Ling was unable to resist at all. He could only try his best to maintain a better attitude.
Peach Tree Demon, who heard Shi Ling's words, laughed and said: "You have already dirty the water in my pool, don't tell me you want to leave like this?"
Shi Ling became anxious when he heard this. Just when he wanted to ask the other party when he had dirty his water, Shi Ling suddenly remembered the scene where he threw a leaf into the lake.
Thinking about this, Shi Ling couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He immediately said with a wry smile: "What, senior, I didn't mean to do it, it's just that I found that the lake water here is a little different from the ones outside, so I threw a leaf in. But I guarantee that I don't have any intention of dirtying your lake, if you allow me, I will immediately go back and get that leaf back!"
As Shi Ling said this, he looked at Peach Tree Demon with anticipation, only to hear the Peach Tree Demon snorting and laughing, and immediately asked: "Don't always keep on calling me senior, am I that old?"
Shi Ling's mouth twitched again when he heard that. Looking at the other party's wrinkled face, he laughed dryly, "Of course not, how can big sister be old? She's clearly a perfect little fairy!"
When Shi Ling said this, he did not forget to look at the sky, worried that if he lied, he would be struck by lightning. Hearing these words, Peach Tree Demon laughed, the leaves on top of his body also shook, and he laughed: "Sister? Little Fairy? "
Shi Ling couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. Right now, in order to escape from this guy's grasp, he could say anything he wanted. However, after seeing its reaction, Shi Ling didn't know what it was thinking. Happy or angry.
Peach Tree Demon said: "Little guy, do you know? I am already two thousand and five hundred years old this year, and you still call me big sister? "
Shi Ling heard so much that his teeth hurt, and he did not know what to say. At that moment, his eyes kept blinking, and all kinds of thoughts were mixed in his mind. Then, he suddenly laughed: "Who said you can't call me big sister because you are old? In my heart, big sister, you are young and beautiful, just like a living and beautiful big girl! "
While talking, Shi Ling nodded seriously. At this moment, Shi Ling didn't care if the other person liked to hear it or not. It was fine to be beautiful when dealing with mothers. After all, who wouldn't want to be praised as beautiful by others?
Although the person in front of him was not a human at all, he heard that Peach Tree Demon had calmed down and said: "Alright, seeing that your mouth is still quite sweet, big sister will not bother about you dirtying the lake water anymore, but you must remember, to not cause it again!"
Shi Ling nodded his head vigorously and almost slapped his chest to make a vow. However, Peach Tree Demon then said: "But, death penalty can be avoided, but it's hard to escape from a crime that is still alive! I still need to punish you appropriately! "
He even looked towards the sky, no one knew what he was thinking about. Shi Ling felt like a cat scratching itself when he saw this scene, then he heard Peach Tree Demon say: "Why don't you come listen to my story?"
Shi Ling could not help but let out an "ah". He thought he had misheard and asked, "I heard you tell a story?"
Peach Tree Demon nodded: "That's right, why? You don't want to? If you're not willing, then why don't you change it to something else? "
Shi Ling quickly nodded and said, "I'm willing, of course I'm willing!"
Peach Tree Demon immediately laughed, revealing half of his teeth that had fallen out of his mouth. At the same time, he put Shi Ling down and said: "Now that's obedient."
The corner of Shi Ling's eye twitched even more, and he immediately sat in front of the Peach Tree Demon, putting the egg in his hand into the Heart Ring. He thought, luckily I was only listening to its story, I don't have any other requirements, otherwise, I might not be able to bear it.
The Peach Tree Demon laughed: "Little guy, big sister will first tell the story of big sister's childhood."
Shi Ling nodded and sat obediently like a well-behaved child. In fact, he was extremely fed up, and immediately heard the Peach Tree Demon start to recite. At the beginning, Shi Ling was serious about listening to it, and from time to time he would even ask a few questions, indicating that he was serious about listening to it.
However, Shi Ling became desperate after that, because it was as if Peach Tree Demon didn't seem to be tired at all when he spoke. He talked for a whole few hours and didn't see any intention of it stopping, but Shi Ling still listened patiently because he had decided that as long as he could help him go back, no matter how long it talked, he would still listen!
Soon, four days later.
Shi Ling looked at Peach Tree Demon in shock. He saw it talking while making all sorts of expressions. When it came to the sad parts, it even had snot and tears. When it came to the happy parts, it smiled brilliantly.
Only Shi Ling's heart was filled with despair. During these four days and nights, Shi Ling had been sitting on the spot and listening to all kinds of things. In fact, from the second day onwards, Shi Ling's mind had become blank and he couldn't hear anything close.
But looking at the time, it had already been four days. In other words, he would be returning to the sect tomorrow, and by then, he would not be able to complete his mission. Thinking about this, Shi Ling panicked a little.
The peach tree, which was originally talking about it with relish, suddenly heard Shi Ling call for it to stop. Immediately, it became unhappy and said, "What's wrong?"
Shi Ling revealed a wry smile and said, "Sister Peach, can you let me go back first? I have something to take care of so I can't stay here any longer."
Then, he pressed Shi Ling onto the ground and said: "No way, you've already promised me that you'll listen to my story here. Anyway, you're not allowed to leave until I finish telling it!"
Shi Ling was speechless. God knows how long your story was. He didn't finish the whole story even after a few days. However, Shi Ling still smiled: "But, I really have something urgent."
But Peach Tree Demon still shouted, "I don't care, I don't care, I don't care!"
Shi Ling: "..."
After that, he thought for a while and then said, "How about this, I'll come visit you every few days, okay? And every time I come here, I'll bring you lots of fun things, okay? "
When Peach Tree Demon heard about something interesting, his eyes immediately opened wide. He said: "Really!"
However, after thinking for a while, he said, "No, what if you lie to me?"
Shi Ling immediately promised: "I, Shi Ling, promise that I will come visit you in the future. Otherwise, I will die a horrible death. Is this okay?"
Hearing that, Peach Tree Demon's eyes started to spin, and he said, "Still can't."
Shi Ling was speechless and said: "Then what do you want me to do?"
Peach Tree Demon pouted and said: "Unless you play tricks to make me happy, I will agree to let you go back. Otherwise, I will not let you leave and will make you stay here to accompany me!"
Shi Ling opened his mouth and said, "Spell? What kind of tricks would I use? "
Peach Tree Demon replied, "I don't care. You just have to make me happy."
Shi Ling was speechless. He pondered for a moment and then came to the lake and said: "Okay, then take a look."
Peach Tree Demon nodded his head vigorously. Then, he saw Shi Ling spread out his arms and a blue flame appeared on his left hand and a red flame appeared on his right.
After that, Shi Ling fiercely pressed the two types of flames together. He continuously twisted between his hands as if he was kneading rubber paste, Peach Tree Demon looked at Shi Ling's hand carefully.
The next moment, it saw a flower bud appear in Shi Ling's hands. Then, it slowly flew up in front of Peach Tree Demon and fiercely charged towards the lake and exploded on the surface of the lake.
A dazzling spark exploded, giving off the impression that a flaming flower had bloomed on the surface of a lake.
Peach Tree Demon immediately shouted out in joy. "Wa, so beautiful, so beautiful! One more, one more!"
Shi Ling stopped when he heard this and said, "Sister Peach, you said it before, I'm just going to play a trick on you and make you happy. Now that you're happy, you can let me go."
Hearing that, the smile on Peach Tree Demon's face froze, he then turned his face to the side and said: "Who said I was happy."
Your head! You're not going to admit it after eating! Shi Ling had the urge to kill this tree demon, but he knew that it wasn't realistic so he said, "No, Sister Peach, we can't play like this. If you say you're unhappy after reading one, then won't I have to stay here forever?"
The peach tree nodded. "Okay, okay. It's good to just stay here. Look at the beautiful scenery here, isn't it great to not have any worries?" At least it's better than always fighting and killing outside, right? "
Then, he revealed a serious expression and said, "Sister Peach, like I said, I need to leave now, I can't stay here anymore, but I can promise you that after a few days, I'll come and see you."
Peach Tree Demon acted immediately and said, "I won't!"
Shi Ling said helplessly, "Then how can I let you leave?"
Peach Tree Demon turned his face aside, looking like he was very angry. He did not want to care about you, but when Shi Ling saw this, he slapped his own head. He met a living ancestor.
Then, the Peach Tree Demon said: "I can ask you to leave."
When Shi Ling heard this, he immediately became spirited. He immediately stood up and looked towards the Peach Tree Demon, saying: "Really?"
Peach Tree Demon continued, "But, you have to eat this peach."
As he said that, Peach Tree Demon plucked a peach from his body and handed it over to Shi Ling. Shi Ling took a look at it and muttered in his heart: "This thing, could it be poisonous?"
Peach Tree Demon suddenly slapped a branch on Shi Ling's head and said: "What are you talking about? Am I such a person? "
Then, he snorted and said, "Anyway, I've already given you the chance. It's up to you if you want to eat it or not."
After that, he stopped looking at Shi Ling. With the peach in his hand, Shi Ling seemed to hesitate in his heart. At the same time, he called out to Bai Xiaosheng in his heart and said, "Hey, Bai Xiaosheng, do you see any problems with this peach?"
At this time, Bai Xiaosheng appeared beside Shi Ling. Immediately, the vortex in his eyes appeared. After looking at the peach, he said, "There's no problem."
Only then did Shi Ling relax, but Bai Xiaosheng continued, "But, after you eat this peach, you will have this Peach Tree Demon's scent on you, and at that time, no matter where you run, it will be able to find you."
Bai Xiaosheng said: "But you should still eat. Anyways, after you enter the Spirit Sword Sect, I do not believe that it will dare to follow us back."
After Shi Ling heard this, he nodded his head and felt that it was right. He immediately ate the peach without any hesitation and after he finished eating, he said to Peach Tree Demon: "Sister Tao, can I go back now?"
Peach Tree Demon pursed his lips and said: "Scram!"
As he spoke, a tree branch directly sent Shi Ling flying.
Shi Ling fell onto the shore of the lake and couldn't help but to rub his buttocks. He felt that the tree demon's attack was really cruel, but at least he had gotten rid of its Demon Claw and ran towards the open exit.
Seeing this scene, the tree demon was instantly enraged. When she saw Shi Ling leave without even looking back, she couldn't help but mutter: "Who am I, am I that scary?"
In the next moment, a figure suddenly appeared on Peach Tree Demon's body. Looking around, one could see that it was a young lady wearing a peach muslin dress.
The young girl was slim and graceful, giving off a weird feeling. She sat on the branch and recalled the scene when she was with Shi Ling. She couldn't help but smile and say: "Shi Ling, right? I'll remember you! "
"..."
Very soon, Shi Ling walked out of the ravine. As he walked, he rubbed his waist and said, "Oh my god, my waist is about to break."
Bai Xiaosheng followed beside Shi Ling and said, "There's something strange about it."
Shi Ling tilted his head and said, "What?"
Bai Xiaosheng said, "The words and actions of that Peach Tree Demon from a moment ago do not look like an old monster that has lived for thousands of years. He looks a little..."
Saying that, he looked at Shi Ling, who continued, "You look like a little girl, right?"
Bai Xiaosheng looked at Shi Ling in surprise and said, "You already knew that?"
Shi Ling immediately said with a sullen face, "I was with her for so long, even a blind person could tell."
Bai Xiaosheng suddenly laughed, "But no matter what, her thousand year cultivation is very real. If you encounter any trouble in the future, she might be a big help to you!"
Shi Ling nodded at this time.
However, right at this moment, Bai Xiaosheng was stunned. He looked forward and noticed Bai Xiaosheng's abnormality. He immediately followed Bai Xiaosheng's gaze and asked, "What happened?"
After seeing the scene in front of his eyes, Shi Ling was also stunned, because at that moment, what appeared in front of him were countless fallen Demonic Beast corpses, and there were even many strong Demonic Beast s among them. Even the Demonic Core s in their bodies were faintly discernable, and even the Fangs Tiger s could be seen here.
