Bai Suzhen, I really need to punish you properly.

Chapter 52 Deceiving the Peony Fairy

Name: Peony Fairy

Age: 1200

[Realm Level: Early Celestial Immortal]

[Note: Peony Fairy is a celestial maiden under the Queen Mother of the West at Yaochi. She is kind, innocent, and unaware of worldly affairs. When Sun Wukong wreaked havoc at the Yaochi banquet, knocking three six-thousand-year-old peaches of immortality to the mortal realm, she was ordered by the Queen Mother to descend to the mortal world to investigate.]

Wang Xuan suddenly realized that this was the timeline of Sun Wukong's havoc in the Heavenly Palace.

I don't know if this counts as owing this monkey a favor.

As for winning over this Peony Fairy, you can imagine how difficult it is.

It's not that these celestial fairies are particularly difficult to pursue.

However, it is a great taboo for immortals and mortals to fall in love, and if the Queen Mother discovers it, the consequences will be unimaginable.

However, for now, we can first get to know each other better and then gradually make our move.

Seeing their noncommittal and unashamed expressions, the Peony Fairy lightly stamped her lotus feet, slightly annoyed: "These are the Queen Mother of the West's peaches of immortality, how could you eat them?"

"To not take what Heaven has given us would be to suffer the consequences," Wang Xuan said calmly with a smile. "The fact that these peaches fell on our faces means they are destined for us. It would be unreasonable not to eat them, wouldn't it?"

Bai Suzhen asked gently, "Who are you, fairy?"

The Peony Fairy replied, "I am the Peony Fairy under the Queen Mother of the West. I came here on her orders to find the Peaches of Immortality, but I never expected that you would eat one of them."

Wang Xuan shrugged and gave up, saying, "But we've already eaten."

Although the Peony Fairy is a Celestial Immortal, her combat power is definitely far inferior to Bai Suzhen's if they were to actually fight.

Furthermore, Bai Suzhen also had powerful backers.

Peony Fairy pouted helplessly: "She ate the peaches of immortality, so she has to come back to Heaven with me to report."

Wang Xuan laughed and said, "Can't you just pretend you didn't see us?"

The Peony Fairy shook her head honestly: "How could I possibly deceive the Queen Mother of the West?"

Wang Xuan started to flatter: "You finally got to descend to the mortal realm, how can you be so inflexible? You really don't know how to cherish the opportunity the Queen Mother of the West gave you."

"Chance?"

When Wang Xuan saw her pressing for answers, he was secretly pleased and slowly explained, "Just think of it as coming down to the mortal realm to relax. Think about it carefully, if the Queen Mother of the West really wanted to retrieve the peaches of immortality, would she only send one fairy like you? Sending you here is just a formality, so that if anything really happens, there will be an explanation later."

The Peony Fairy, half-confused and half-doubting, frowned deeply: "Just going through the motions?"

"Of course." Wang Xuan nodded slightly, feigning profundity. "Alright, I feel my words have touched your soul. I won't say more; figure it out for yourself."

Peony Fairy was lost in thought when Wang Xuan took the opportunity to pull Bai Suzhen's hand and prepare to leave quietly.

"Wait!" The Peony Fairy hurriedly caught up and retorted, "You're wrong! I'm in charge of the Peach Garden. I'm most familiar with the scent and celestial charm of the peaches. This is naturally under my jurisdiction."

Wang Xuan smiled and countered, "Even if you're good at finding them, what if the peaches you're looking for fall into the hands of an evil person, and you can't defeat them?"

The Peony Fairy was speechless for a moment and fell into deep thought.

Wang Xuan smiled faintly, "So the Queen Mother of the West never expected you to find it. Don't put too much pressure on yourself; she won't blame you."

The Peony Fairy was momentarily stunned.

She originally thought this trip down to earth would go smoothly.

However, the first peach they tried to harvest was unsuccessful.

Seeing this, Wang Xuan pressed his advantage: "How about this, I've done some calculations and I have a feeling you'll have a hard time getting the other two peaches back..."

The Peony Fairy was astonished and quickly asked, "How did you know that three had fallen in total?"

Wang Xuan feigned mystery and smiled smugly: "Now you can believe me, right?"

The Peony Fairy's clear eyes were full of conviction as she nodded earnestly.

Bai Suzhen smiled faintly, secretly lamenting that her husband was once again trying to deceive innocent and beautiful women.

"If you just turn a blind eye, we're willing to help you find the remaining two. How about it?"

The Peony Fairy indeed turned a blind eye.

"is that so?"

Wang Xuan was speechless for a moment, but the Peony Fairy was quite cute like this. He explained helplessly, "I don't mean you have to turn a blind eye. I mean you should pretend you don't know where this peach is."

"Okay, if you can really help me find the remaining two, I'll agree."

This fairy isn't so foolish after all.

They'll only agree to keep it a secret if they find it.

However, Wang Xuan's purpose was simply to keep the Peony Fairy by his side and to develop a relationship with her. Even if the two peaches were not found in time, if the Peony Fairy did reveal the truth, the Queen Mother would certainly not hold her accountable because of her connection with the Old Mother of Lishan.

Wang Xuan then asked, "Can you sense the location of the other two peaches now?"

The Peony Fairy gently shook her head: "Can't you figure it out?"

Although she could sense the scent of the peaches more deeply, she couldn't be too far away.

Wang Xuan remembered that the remaining two peaches in the drama were obtained by the evil dragon of the East Sea, so the specific location must be near the East Sea.

"I can only guess the general location," Wang Xuan advised. "How about you wait for us patiently tonight, and we'll set off tomorrow morning?"

Wang Xuan's biggest wish right now is to kill Wutong Shen; everything else can wait.

The Peony Fairy frowned in confusion: "Why not go look for it now?"

"No, it's not that we shouldn't look, it's that we should look slowly, carefully, and rhythmically. You can't rush things, you know?"

The Peony Fairy asked innocently, "What's hot tofu? Is it tasty?"

"I'll take you to try it later."

"Oh well."

Since Wang Xuan knew the general location, it was much better than her searching aimlessly.

Wang Xuan, Bai Suzhen, and the Peony Fairy returned to the county government office.

The group of beauties in the room had not yet left.

Seeing a beautiful, unfamiliar woman beside Wang Xuan and Bai Suzhen, they couldn't help but cast curious glances at them.

Wang Xuan then introduced, "This is the Peony Fairy from Heaven."

Peony blinked her clear, innocent eyes, her expression calm, but in her heart she was equally envious of the people, snakes, clams, and ghosts in the room.

Not only are they of different kinds, but more importantly, they are all incredibly beautiful.

Fan Shiyi Niang exclaimed in amazement, "Brother Xuan, you're amazing! You can even... [make a fairy...]"

Wang Xuan reached out and covered her cherry lips, chuckling softly, "We're just acquaintances, we haven't reached that point yet."

Xiaoqing pouted and snorted, "I think it's only a matter of time."

The Peony Fairy, oblivious to these ambiguous jokes, looked directly at Wang Xuan and asked curiously, "Are they all your women?"

Wang Xuan remained noncommittal: "Hmm."

The Peony Fairy couldn't help but look at Wang Xuan with even greater admiration. To be able to captivate so many beauties with his mortal body, he must possess a unique personal charm.

Wang Xuan's mind raced, and he smiled as he asked, "Fairy, do you have any treasures on you? How about we trade?"

After all, she was a fairy maiden under the Queen Mother of the West, and the kind who was very pampered. In the original drama, the Peony Fairy only brought back one peach, and the Queen Mother only gave her a few words of reprimand. She must have had many good things on her.

The Peony Fairy asked curiously, "Exchange? What do you want to exchange with me for?"

"There are plenty of fun things in the mortal world, no less than in Heaven," Wang Xuan boasted shamelessly, "Let me see what you have on you first?"

The Peony Fairy thought for a moment, then took out a small, lustrous, and exquisite white jade bottle: "This is the Dew of a Hundred Flowers, the dew condensed from the morning and evening of a hundred flowers in the Jade Pool. A single drop can solidify one's foundation and extend one's lifespan."

Wang Xuan's expression remained calm as he nodded slightly. "That sounds pretty good. How about this, I'll trade you pearls. Mingzhu, bring out a few of your treasured 'South China Sea pearls'."
