Chen Xuan looked at Hongjun with a smile on his face and said, "Could it be? Could it be those three thousand year old peaches you asked Yao Chi to plant?"

Now Hongjun finally knew what Chen Xuan's real purpose was, which was to use the Peach Tree to control the Heavenly Court.

Why can a single mother peach tree control the Heavenly Court? The reason is that the Heavenly Court wants to win over the immortals of the prehistoric world. To do so, they must offer attractive bargaining chips.

The peaches are something that the ancient monks cannot refuse. After all, the peaches can not only increase magic power, but also increase the lifespan of the monks.

Originally, the monks in the ancient times would not worry about their lifespan, but now that Houtu has re-refined the Book of Life and Death, they dare not take their lifespan lightly anymore.

Therefore, the Heavenly Court must hold the Peach Banquet constantly to distribute peaches to the immortals who are willing to join the Heavenly Court to increase their lifespan.

However, the key to the peach trees in the Heavenly Palace's Peach Garden being able to produce three thousand years, six thousand years, or even nine thousand years of peaches is the mother peach tree.

If Hongjun gave the mother peach tree to Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan could use the mother peach tree to prevent the peach trees in the peach garden of heaven from bearing fruit.

Of course, if Chen Xuan is willing, he can also make all the peach trees in the Peach Garden bear nine thousand year old peaches.

But Hongjun would never believe that Chen Xuan would do that. On the contrary, Chen Xuan could actually make the peach tree not bear fruit.

So he shook his head and said to Chen Xuan, "I have already given the mother peach tree to Yao Chi. I can't ask for it back. So, please exchange it for another one, fellow Daoist Qinglian."

"I know that if Daoist Qinglian is willing, I am willing to lend the Jade Disc of Creation to Daoist Qinglian for ten thousand years of contemplation. However, the place of contemplation must be in Zixiao Palace."

On the surface, Hongjun really invested a lot of money. He was even willing to give up the Jade Disc of Creation that he had been reluctant to give up for ten thousand years.

In reality, Chen Xuan knew exactly what Hongjun was planning. Hongjun knew that Chen Xuan would never dare to stay in Zixiao Palace for more than ten thousand years, especially under the Jade Disc of Creation.

Because these ten thousand years are enough time for Hongjun and Tiandao to set up a complete sealing barrier, so that Chen Xuan can never leave Zixiao Palace again.

So Chen Xuan shook his head without hesitation and said, "Forget about comprehending the Jade Disc of Creation. After all, at our level, if we want to improve our cultivation, what's the point of relying solely on comprehending?"

"If you are willing to send the mother peach tree to us, our previous agreement will stand. Otherwise, we can only rely on our own abilities."

"At worst, I can let the Three Pure Ones personally come forward to recruit disciples on Qinglian Island. Let the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors all become disciples of the saints."

While speaking, Chen Xuan did not forget to speak directly: "Nuwa, come to Qinglian Palace quickly and see your master."

Seeing that Chen Xuan was actually going to make a move, Hongjun couldn't help but feel worried. Although he was able to directly create a third generation of disciples with quasi-saint cultivation.

But he was unable to give his four disciples the strength to crush the Saint of Qinglian Island.

In other words, if Chen Xuan really allowed the Sage of Qinglian Island to teach the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, then he, the Sage of Heavenly Dao, would have no chance.

Even if the teachers of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors were all saints, the disciples they taught would naturally be extraordinary. It might even make the human race even more powerful and prosperous.

By then, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors might not have finished their work, and humanity would have awakened prematurely. Therefore, Hongjun naturally couldn't let such a thing happen.

He immediately said, "Since Fellow Daoist Qinglian has such a special fondness for the Peach Tree, then I can only let my disciple give it up." After saying this, Hongjun disappeared directly from Qinglian Island. When he reappeared, he had already arrived in Heaven.

At this time, the Heavenly Court had regained its former glory with the help of the Four Heavenly Saints, and was even more powerful than the Demonic Heavenly Court of the past.

At this time, Lord Haotian and Queen Mother of the West were drinking tea in the West Lake. Suddenly they saw their master coming, and they immediately stood up and knelt down to pay homage.

Hongjun waved his hand and helped Lord Haotian and Queen Mother Yaochi up. He then spoke to them.

"Master, I came here this time to take away the mother peach tree..."

Hongjun then recounted the entire story, allowing Haotian God and Yaochi Golden Mother to understand why Hongjun wanted to take the peach tree away.

Although they felt a little reluctant, they did not dare to refuse. After all, what Hongjun was planning was a big thing, and they did not dare to delay Hongjun's plan because of their own selfishness.

Even so, Yao Chi Jin Mu still spoke to Hong Jun and asked, "Master, now that the Heavenly Palace no longer has the Mother Peach Tree, it is no longer up to me, your disciple, to decide whether the Peach Tree can bear fruit."

"If the Peach Garden ever runs out of peaches, how will Senior Brother Haotian and I hold the Peach Banquet and entertain the immortals in Heaven?"

The Queen Mother of the West almost told Hongjun directly that without the Peach Tree, how would we pay the salaries of the immortals in Heaven?

Hongjun was naturally well aware of this, and immediately said, "Don't worry, the peach tree in the Heavenly Palace will definitely bear fruit."

After hearing what Hongjun said, Lord Haotian and Queen Mother of the West naturally could not say anything more and could only take Hongjun to Pantao Garden.

Coming to the Peach Garden, I walked past the three thousand year old peach tree, then crossed the six thousand year old peach tree, and finally arrived behind the nine thousand year old peach tree.

With a wave of the Queen Mother of the West's hand, a door from nothingness suddenly opened. It turned out that behind this nine thousand year old peach tree, there was actually a hidden space.

And the mother peach tree grows in this secret space.

Looking at the peach tree in front of them, Yao Chi Jin Mu and Hao Tian God were reluctant to let it go, but they had to hand it over to Hongjun.

However, Hongjun did not take the mother peach tree away immediately. Instead, he waved his hand and cut off one of its large branches.

Then Hongjun worked hard to cultivate the branch into a peach tree.

Even compared to the scent of the mother peach tree, the peach tree cultivated from this branch is not inferior at all.

This inevitably made Yao Chi Jin Mu happy, and she immediately said to Hong Jun, "Master, do you want to use the branches of this peach tree to grow a peach tree, and use it as a mother peach tree to give to Taoist Qing Lian?"

Hongjun shook his head, "We can't fool him. So we must give him the Mother Peach Tree, otherwise it will backfire."

As he spoke, Hongjun waved his hand. Countless Dao blades flew out of his hand and headed straight for the Peach Mother Tree.

In just a moment, the inheritance of the mother peach tree and the peach trees in the Peach Garden was severed.

And it was connected to the newly cultivated peach tree, allowing it to replace the peach mother tree and continue to live in this secret space.
