"Yes." Lin Qiye nodded, "This flat peach can extend your life and repair hidden dangers in your body. If you eat it, you will be much better."
Huo Qubing stared at Lin Qiye for a long time, his expression extremely complicated.
"I am just a broken body. Even if I have this flat peach to live on, how long will I be able to survive... I appreciate your kindness. You got this flat peach in exchange for it, so you should eat it."
"I've already eaten it. It's a waste if I eat this one."
Lin Qiye forced the flat peach into Huo Qubing's hand again, "You are the champion in the world. No one in this world is more worthy of eating this flat peach than you. If you don't eat it, I will destroy it."
Despite Lin Qiye's continuous dissuasion, Huo Qubing still sighed and ate the flat peach into his mouth.
As the peach enters the body, the pale and weak face regains its color visibly to the naked eye, and the vitality that was on the verge of withering is quickly regenerated, the tyrannical fluctuations of mental power roll out of the body, and the eyes are once again radiant!
"Master Marquis, please meditate and adjust your breath, I will protect you." Lin Qiye's voice rang in Huo Qubing's ears.
Surging power surged from Huo Qubing's body. He closed his eyes tightly and immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, concentrating on absorbing the essence of the peaches. His spiritual power, which was already at the ceiling of human beings, began to grow again!
Sensing the changes in Huo Qubing's body, the others' faces showed shock. They did not expect that the flat peach actually contained such terrifying power.
"What an amazing peach." Chloe's eyes widened, "Is this the mysterious power from the East?"
Absorbing the flat peach is a long process. According to Lin Qiye's estimation, it would take Huo Qubing about half a day to completely absorb the flat peach. Although this flat peach cannot make him a god, it should be no problem in extending his lifespan.
It stands to reason that a flat peach is enough to extend the life of an ordinary person for decades, but for the [Dominating Emperor], this effect should be greatly reduced... Maybe only Huo Qubing himself knows how long it can be extended.
"Jialan, where is the immortality pill?"
At this moment, Queen Mother Xi turned to look at Jialan and asked.
Jialan:(⊙x⊙;)
"Forehead……"
Big beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, and her whole body suddenly became nervous. She knew that this day had finally come.
Seeing Jialan's reaction, Queen Mother Xi's eyes narrowed slightly. She stretched out her hand and made a volley, and a white elixir pot automatically flew out of Jialan's sleeve and landed in her palm.
When Queen Mother Xi opened the elixir pot and took a look, her face suddenly turned ugly.
"Where's the immortality pill?"
Just when Jialan was at a loss, a voice came from behind her:
"Empress, Immortal Pill, I let her eat it."
Queen Mother Xi frowned and looked over, only to see Lin Qiye, dressed in green clothes, calmly walking up to Jia Lan and speaking respectfully.
"Eat?" Queen Mother Xi's voice was a little low, "Lin Qiye, do you know that this immortality pill is a tribulation secret treasure refined by Lingbao Tianzun for all people in the world. Its materials are even scarcer than your Hongmeng spiritual fetus. It is the only one in the world.
These two pieces will never be refined again in the future...
The culprits who disturbed the Yaochi and the monsters who were chasing Jialan all came for it. If they had to destroy it, it would be fine. At least it did not fall into the hands of foreign enemies.
But as long as this pill is eaten, it will remain in her body forever. Not only will she not be able to combine with the Immortal Pill to save the world, she will also become the target of those monsters... If she is kidnapped and forcibly refines the Immortal Pill,
That will lead to another catastrophe."
Queen Mother Xi's deep voice sounded in front of the Third Hall. As her eyes gradually narrowed, a terrifying divine power pressed on Jialan's shoulders, causing her to kneel down in front of the steps.
Although the Queen Mother of the West appears to be gentle and peaceful, she has always acted vigorously and resolutely. If not for this, she would not have been able to wash away her Yaochi with blood, and even the Lord God who came to visit would not let go... In her heart, she has herself
A set of ideas, and Jialan secretly swallowed the Immortal Pill against her will, which undoubtedly touched her bottom line.
Jialan knew the temperament of Queen Mother Xi very well. At this moment, her face was extremely pale, her head was lowered, and she did not dare to raise her head to look directly at the figure in front of the palace.
Queen Mother Xi took a deep breath, dragged her gilded purple-patterned robe across the steps, and walked slowly towards Jialan:
"Before I sent them away, I told them many times not to swallow pills privately... Now that this situation has occurred, you'd better give me an explanation."
Just when Jialan's head lowered so low that it almost hit the ground, a figure stood between her and the Queen Mother of the West.
"Empress, do you believe in karma?"
Queen Mother Xi stared at Lin Qiye in front of her. After a long time, she finally spoke, "Cause and effect is one of the highest avenues in the world. I naturally believe in it."
"Then if I say that Jialan swallowing pills is inevitable due to cause and effect, will you believe it?"
"Cause and effect are inevitable?" Queen Mother Xi shook her head, "Lin Qiye, I know that you have the power of cause and effect, but if everything in this world is inevitable by cause and effect, what is the meaning of our existence?
There is no inevitable cause and effect in the world. The so-called inevitable results are nothing more than because someone planted the 'cause' in advance."
The inevitable result...is it because someone planted the "cause" in advance?
When these words fell into Lin Qiye's ears, a flash of light seemed to pass through his mind. He seemed to have thought of something, and a gleam appeared in his eyes.
"My dear, you are right. All the seemingly inevitable results in the world are because someone planted a 'cause'... and I am that kind of 'cause' person.
It was me who facilitated Jialan's swallowing of the Immortality Pill, and this is exactly the 'cause' I planted for future generations."
Queen Mother Xi frowned and looked at him, "Lin Qiye, do you know how much risk you are taking by doing this?"
"These things are all done by me alone, and the risks are naturally borne by me alone." Lin Qiye clasped his hands in his fists and saluted respectfully, "I would like to ask you to be noble and let Jia Lan go."
Queen Mother Xi's face was sullen, and her eyes kept scanning Lin Qiye and Jialan, as if she was thinking about something.
Finally, she made up her mind and set her sights on Lin Qiye.
"Since you insist on planting her 'cause', I will do as you wish. I just hope that one day you will not regret it..." Queen Mother Xi glanced at Jialan one last time, turned around and walked back.
The sleeves of the purple-striped robe swayed lightly, and the voice came slowly,
"Zhuhun Jialan, disobeyed my will and secretly swallowed the Immortal Pill. I will be expelled from Yaochi immediately. From now on, I will have nothing to do with me."
Hearing these words, Jialan's eyes suddenly froze, and she looked at Queen Mother Xi's leaving figure in astonishment, frozen in place like a sculpture.
When the figure gradually walked away, she suddenly came back to her senses and knocked her forehead heavily on the ground:
