After the Eastern Sea's banquet, news of the little divine dragon's devotion to High God Xuan Xuan spread.
The banquet lasted for seven days, those women were thinking of all sorts of ways to tease the little divine dragon.
Especially when they saw that he looked exactly the same as Demon Venerable Tian Zhen, they wondered if he had inherited Divine Lord Tian Hua's dissolute personality, throwing him into an illusion formation and setting up layers of barriers.
But no matter what kind of temptation he faced, no matter what kind of obstacles he faced, the little divine dragon was unwavering.
Everyone laughed: "The little divine dragon followed the Water God, he's not as absurd as that old pervert."
The little divine dragon was tormented badly, when the banquet ended, his face was pinched by those weird aunties, thinking about those red nails made him shiver.
The Water God saw that he couldn't take it, she covered her mouth and laughed, saying to Tian Hua who was finally allowed to return: "Don't be unconvinced, Black Tortoise family's upbringing is more successful than yours."
Tian Hua was speechless.
The little divine dragon couldn't stay in the Eastern Sea any longer, seeing that this matter was over, he didn't have the mood to chat with Tian Hua and Long Zhen, transforming into a dragon and leaving the sea.
Seeing that he was eager to return, the Water God who was pregnant for ten years pinched Tian Hua again and said: "This is all because of you."
Tian Hua foolishly let it go, but he was also surprised.
That unfilial son's taste changed completely after being reborn, he actually liked someone as boring as Xuan Xuan, who knows if it was that old bastard Xuan Wu who gave him bewitching potions since young.
The little divine dragon broke out of the sea and unexpectedly saw Xuan Xuan at the shore of the Eastern Sea, he was actually waiting for him.
His eyes instantly lit up, he rushed over and transformed: "Xuan Xuan, are you here to fetch me?"
Xuan Xuan caught the person who jumped into his embrace, lowering his head to look at him, his eyes darkened as he thought of something.
However, he quickly shifted his gaze away from the little divine dragon's face, coughed uncomfortably and said honestly: "I came to the Eastern Sea to settle some matters, I calculated that you would return today, so I waited for you to leave together."
He didn't say what he came to the Eastern Sea for, it was too difficult to say.
He also felt that he was possessed, last night, he dreamt of using pearls to fill Immortal Monarch Tian Zhen, making him cry and beg, when he woke up, he couldn't help but dive into the Eastern Sea to find pearls.
They were of different sizes, but there were so many of them that it was enough to fill a dozen Tian Zhen.
The little Divine Dragon did not pursue the matter. He was still pleasantly surprised and said, "Xuan Xuan, you are so nice."
When Xuan Xuan heard this, he felt a little uncomfortable. It was rare for him to take the initiative to ask, "Are you coming back with me? Or do you want to stay in the Lower Bound for a while longer?"
In his heart, he hoped that the little divine dragon would have its own life and not always revolve around a heartless person like him.
Even if she had more experience, it would be good. In the future, she would come to his place to find stability. Only then would they not owe each other anything.
The little divine dragon was keenly aware of something, and the smile in his eyes dimmed, but soon he smiled again and said, "Tao Yao of the demon race invited me just now. He said that the peach blossom wine was brewed, and he opened the peach blossom forest enchantment to invite people in to taste it. He even held a market to exchange for good demon race items. Why don't we go and have a look together? "
Xuan Xuan hesitated for a moment. He didn't like to go out, and now he didn't want to be a spectator.
The little divine dragon said, "I heard that peach blossom wood can ward off evil spirits, but its nature is lascivious. You haven't used it to carve me, right? Maybe it will be very different."
Xuan Xuan immediately thought of Tian Zhen's half-naked and confused appearance in his dream. His eyes drifted, and he nodded and said, "Then let's go."
When the two of them arrived at the demon race's peach blossom forest, it was indeed very lively.
The peach blossom forest stretched for thousands of miles, and the peach blossoms were in full bloom all year round. The different shades of the flowers dyed a beautiful brocade. Looking at it from the sky, it was already very beautiful.
Once they entered, the ground was full of fallen petals, and the sky was full of peach blossoms. It was a different kind of fun.
The peach blossom forest that only opened once every hundred years. On the surface, it was an open market, but it had long become a sacred place for couples to date. Its popularity far surpassed the matchmaking banquet held by the Moon Elder Hall once every thousand years.
As they walked, they saw pairs. The little divine dragon and Xuan Xuan were just an inconspicuous pair.
"Xuan Xuan, there are many more people lining up for the peach blossom wine than we saw before. It must be better. Let's bring some back."
The little divine dragon liked to follow the crowd when he bought things. When he saw others buying and selling, he would join in.
Those couple accessories were fine, but he had already bought who knows how many jugs of peach blossom wine along the way.
Xuan Xuan facepalmed. "That's what your previous shop said. It's better to leave some for others."
The little divine dragon didn't drink other kinds of wine, but he liked to drink the wine that he had soaked in it. He called it the divine turtle's aged wine, and it was a once in a lifetime opportunity.
But he no longer bathed in wine, so it would be a waste to buy it.
Hearing him say this, the little divine dragon didn't insist.
On the other hand, the peach blossom demon who was keeping order at the side said, "Immortal, you're wrong. My family's peach blossom wine is different from other families'. No matter how much you drink, you won't get drunk. After drinking it, not only will your body and mind be refreshed, it can also liven things up. "
She pursed her lips and smiled. Her gaze swept over them, and then she said, "My family's wine is called the Lingxi Wine. If two people drink the same jug of wine, their hearts and minds will be connected, and they will dream of the other party's dreams."
"After drinking it, you'll find it again after a hundred years. You see, I'm afraid there won't be enough supply, so my family limits each couple to one jug. We don't have any more. "
When the little divine dragon heard this, he didn't care what Xuan Xuan said and excitedly pulled him to the back of the line.
Just as the peach blossom demon said, this family's wine was indeed very popular.
When it was finally their turn, there was already a long line behind them. Among them, there was no lack of repeat customers and couples who came because of the wine's reputation.
However, what they didn't expect was that the owner of the wine store saw them and was stunned for a moment. He suddenly stood up and said, "This year's wine is sold out. Please come earlier next time."
The little divine dragon was stunned. "What is behind you if not the peach blossom wine? Why is it sold out?"
The people standing at the front also saw it clearly and immediately asked.
The peach blossom forest only bloomed once every hundred years, so they had to wait for another hundred years.
Although it wasn't a long time, they were already here. It wasn't a good thing to let them go back empty-handed.
The person in charge of selling the wine was a male peach blossom demon. He was also a demon who brewed the peach blossom wine. His expression was even worse than theirs. He waved his hand and said, "I said I'm not selling, so I'm not selling. I'm not afraid to tell you that even if I pour all my wine into the East Sea, I won't sell it to you adulterers! "
"Eh?!"
The little divine dragon opened his eyes wide in astonishment.
Even though Xuan Xuan didn't like to argue with others, he frowned and said in a low voice, "Be careful with your words."
The male peach blossom demon snorted coldly. Due to their identities, he didn't say anything else. However, he didn't sell the wine no matter what. He took the wine behind him and left, not caring about how others tried to stop him.
The little divine dragon said angrily, "Who is this person? How did we offend him?"
As he spoke, he looked at Xuan Xuan. "Xuan Xuan, you know him. Do you have any conflicts with him?"
Xuan Xuan thought for a long time before saying, "We met once. I don't know if there was any misunderstanding. Forget it, don't ruin your mood for him. Aren't we going to the peach blossom forest to pick peach trees? Let's go. "
They didn't expect that as soon as they entered the peach blossom forest, they would step into an illusion formation and be separated.
Xuan Xuan's cultivation had increased greatly, so he saw through the formation at a glance. He looked at the person who set up the formation and said, "What do you want?"
It was the male peach blossom demon who spoke rudely just now.
He walked over and said in a strange tone, "High God Xuan Xuan is indeed extraordinary. I'm sorry for my disrespect."
Xuan Xuan didn't want to argue with him. He said with his hands behind his back, "I'm not familiar with you. Please leave on your own and don't do this."
"I'm not familiar with you, but I owe Tian Zhen a lot. Now, I don't have the chance to return it. However, seeing you being intimate with someone who looks like him, and some kind of fate, I feel that it's not worth it for him. "
The male peach blossom demon snorted. Although his tone wasn't good, the sadness in his eyes when he mentioned Tian Zhen didn't seem to be fake.
This name undoubtedly touched Xuan Xuan.
He pursed his lips and said, "I remember that Tian Zhen and you didn't get along well. Once, he even beat you half to death. I was the one who saved you. I don't know why you feel that it's not right for him? "
When the male peach blossom demon heard this, tears appeared in his eyes without warning.
"Do you know why Tian Zhen beat me?"
Xuan Xuan shook his head. Unless Tian Zhen was in the wrong first, Xuan Xuan usually didn't ask about the cause. He was only responsible for cleaning up after he caused trouble.
The male peach blossom demon sighed and said, "Back then, Immortal Lord Tian Zhen was so magnificent. It wasn't just the female yao who admired him. I also once admired him."
"I don't have any other skills, but my ancestors passed down the art of brewing wine. I told him to take the blood from his fingertips. I could brew a kind of wine. After drinking it, he could see the person he was bound to in the future. "
Pausing, he smiled bitterly and said, "That wine is also Drunk Peach Blossom. When you drink it, you will dream together. Drunk Peach Blossom, you can only dream of the person your heart belongs to, and not your future lover. "
"I originally thought that he was naturally dissolute, and his heart didn't belong to anyone. I used my dreams to trick him, so he knew that I was that person. I never thought … … "
The male peach blossom demon looked at Xuan Xuan with hatred in his eyes, "I didn't think that he really dreamed of someone. I don't need to say it, you should know who he dreamed of, right? "
Xuan Xuan was stunned.
Ever since Tian Zhen had a falling out with this peach blossom demon, he never stepped into the peach blossom forest again. In other words, when he dreamed of him, he had only just reached adulthood.
The reason why Xuan Xuan was shocked was because he had calculated after Tian Zhen was sent to the Wilderness. It was Yao Chi who saw through his feelings, and it was also she who pointed this out to Tian Zhen, which made him suddenly realize.
He didn't think that Tian Zhen would have such thoughts about him so early on.
The male peach blossom demon saw his astonishment and snorted coldly, "After Tian Zhen woke up, he was furious. He said that I was teasing him, that I did something to him. I tied you, who he loved the most and was unwilling to profane the most, together with him. After having that kind of dream, he beat me up."
The male peach blossom demon closed his eyes and exhaled, "I was also very angry in my heart. In a fit of anger, I didn't tell him the truth. After that, he never stepped into the peach blossom forest again, and I never saw him again … … "
"If I didn't hide it at that time, he might not have taken so many detours, and wouldn't have reached the point of no return."
The male peach blossom demon was extremely regretful.
After all, he was someone he once loved. Even if Tian Zhen really degenerated into a demon, and even led the demon crowd to attack the Nine Heavens, causing chaos in the Three Realms and countless deaths, he couldn't bear to blame him. He also sympathized with his ending.
"You should know that in terms of feelings, he is the most daring person to take responsibility for his actions. Although he is ruthless to others, he is only different to you. It's just that he didn't realize his own feelings, or maybe he was too careful and didn't dare to think too deeply, so he would rather stay with the status quo. "
"As an outsider, I feel uneasy when I think about the past, but what about you?"
"It's only been a few hundred years, but you can forget him and join hands with someone else — — someone who has the same name as him and looks like him. How ironic! "
After saying this, the male peach blossom demon couldn't hide his emotions anymore. He pointed at Xuan Xuan and wanted to curse him.
But in the end, he held it in.
Now that Xuan Xuan had ascended to become a High God, his status was respected. If he really argued with him, the entire peach blossom forest would be implicated.
Therefore, he could only curse at the mulberry tree and the locust tree to vent his anger.
Xuan Xuan was silent. When he felt that the little divine dragon was coming over, he opened his mouth and said, "Since things have come to this, I have nothing to say. You can leave."
The male peach blossom demon sneered, but he also knew that the formation he set up wouldn't be able to trap the little divine dragon for long, so he took out a jar of wine and threw it to Xuan Xuan.
"This is the wine brewed from the blood on his fingertips. Back then, he only drank half a cup and couldn't wake up from his drunken dream. Now that I'm giving it to you, I want to see if you dare to drink it and dream what he dreamed of. "
After saying this, the male peach blossom demon turned and left.
The illusory formation dissipated, and the little divine dragon came over with a jar of wine. He smiled and said, "Xuan Xuan, you also took a jar?"
"I didn't expect that there was a top-grade thousand-year-old peach blossom wine hidden in the peach blossom illusory formation. Only the fated person can get it. Look, I only took one jar, and it's even three thousand years old. What about you? "
There was no fated chance. It was just that the male peach blossom demon deliberately mystifying things.
Xuan Xuan knew that the other party wanted to annoy him. Since the little divine dragon got the wine, how could he not drink it? At that time, both of them would be drunk and have different dreams. It would be very funny.
However, Xuan Xuan only pretended that he didn't know his intentions. He put away the wine and said, "Wait for me here. After I get the peach wood, we'll go back."
"… Oh."
The little divine dragon saw that he was in a bad mood and didn't ask much. He just watched him leave.
After a while, he turned his head and looked deeply in the direction that the male peach blossom demon left.
The two of them returned to the Three Gods Island.
At night, Xuan Xuan closed his bedroom and stared blankly at the wine given by the male peach blossom demon for a long time before he opened the seal.
In the aged wine, there was indeed Tian Zhen's breath.
It had been a long time since Xuan Xuan faced Tian Zhen's breath like this. Even though the little divine dragon's breath was so similar that he couldn't distinguish one from the other, he knew that it wasn't Tian Zhen.
Taking a deep breath, Xuan Xuan only took a small cup and carefully sealed the jar of wine. He stored it in his divine aperture and put it next to a pile of Tian Zhen's statues.
He couldn't bear to drink it in one gulp, so he stopped after tasting it.
However, the Drunk Peach Blossom that had been in the cellar for tens of thousands of years was extraordinary. After a few sips, he fell asleep.
He didn't notice that someone had appeared from the dark. He stared at the wine cup on the table for a while before he lowered his head to lick the wine and returned to his palace.
Drunk Peach Blossom, inviting you to dream together.
Not long after the little divine dragon lay down, he saw the scene that he had dreamed of many years ago.
He didn't know if it was because the Drunk Peach Blossom had been drunk for a long time or because Xuan Xuan, who had led him into the dream, had a high cultivation. This time, what he saw and heard was much clearer than before.
Tian Zhen, who had just reached adulthood, sat on the turtle shell and ordered the black turtle, who had also just reached adulthood, to crawl in the clouds.
That was Tian Zhen's favorite cultivation method.
He only needed to sit on Xuan Xuan's back and let the cool clouds caress his face. It was delicate and soft, and there was a fresh divine breath.
It was much more comfortable than accompanying Xuan Xuan in the Turtle Pond to absorb the divine power of the Black Tortoise God.
He looked up and smiled in the dream. "Xuan Xuan, hurry up. You are a divine turtle. Your speed is even slower than that of an ordinary turtle in the mortal world. It's too embarrassing."
Xuan Xuan didn't agree. He lectured him, "Did you forget that time when you fell from the clouds and were seen by the Nine Levels of Heaven? If people laugh at you again, I won't help you seal their mouths. "
Tian Zhen kicked his head unhappily. "How long ago was that? Do you want to remember it for the rest of your life?"
Xuan Xuan laughed. "Sit tight. Don't fall asleep and fall down."
Tian Zhen snorted. "You are here to catch me. What is there to be afraid of?"
Xuan Xuan didn't agree, but his curved eyes said everything.
Carrying Tian Zhen on his back, he traveled through the clouds for a very long time. He only stopped when he had completed eighty-one cycles of cultivation.
"Are you asleep?"
He turned his head to look at the silent Tian Zhen on the shell.
Tian Zhen lay down, hugged his long neck, and shook his head.
Xuan Xuan saw that he didn't let go, as if he had something to say to him, so he didn't rush back.
But after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear him speak.
He could only follow his grandfather's aura back to the Xuanwu Temple in this awkward position.
At this time, Tian Zhen spoke.
He asked softly, "Xuan Xuan, in the future, you will only have me on your back, okay? We won't find anyone else, just the two of us for the rest of our lives, okay? You … break off the engagement with Yao Chi, okay? "
At that time, Tian Zhen was timid and naive.
He woke up with a fright after asking this question. He didn't even know if Xuan Xuan replied.
But this time, the little divine dragon clearly heard Xuan Xuan say, "Okay, I promise you, Tian Zhen."
Without hesitation.
He made a promise.
This was the dream of the Immortal Monarch Tian Zhen, and also the dream of High God Xuan Xuan.
Tears flowed from the corners of the little divine dragon's eyes. He heard the door next door open, but he didn't dare to move. After Xuan Xuan walked far away, he took out Heaven Glimpse to look at him.
Xuan Xuan turned into a black tortoise and crawled in the dark clouds.
The clouds were colder than he remembered. This path was longer than he remembered.
And his back was very light.
There was always one less person's weight.
