Chapter 45: Illusory Peach Garden
Shen Du stared blankly at Xue Guai's energetic appearance of carrying a package, as if recalling many things.
Even the Yeti's "yi yi ya ya" humming sound, he seemed to be deaf to it, his eyes blankly staring at everything in front of him.
After a while, the snow monster finally shouldered the big bag and panted: "Let's go."
Shen Du finally came back to his senses, with a warm smile on his face.
"Good."
Looking at the still-standing Yanmo in the cold wind and snow, Shendu took a big step to Yanmo's side, pulled up her gradually cold hand, and said in a low voice: "Let's go see what's going on."
Chang'an did not oppose again.
The snow monster walked in front, and the large package on her back blocked Shen Dou's line of sight who was walking behind.
Silently following behind her, he lifted his head to gaze at the bright moon hanging high in the sky like a jade plate, and suddenly felt a jolt in his heart. With such heavy snow, how could the moon appear?
And the snow monster seemed to have no doubt about it and walked straight into a valley.
The cold wind in the valley was more concentrated, whistling past them from their front.
Yan's whole body suddenly started shivering violently, and Shen Du could only once again circulate his Qi to help her drive out the cold.
As I walked to the end of the valley, there was a thick ice and snow cliff that extended over the deep precipice, with flying snow swirling below the cliff and the cold wind growing stronger.
The snow monster finally turned around, with a strange smile looking at Shendu, and said faintly: "We need to jump down from here, do you dare?"
Shen had already successfully advanced to Sword King, so even if he walked on air, it wouldn't be a problem. Qian Mu's physique was petite, and carrying her didn't pose any burden either. The only concern was that the Snow Monster had such a large load on its back - could it really jump from here?
"Of course, it's just you..." Shen Du looked at Xue with a suspicious gaze.
"You don't have to worry about me, the Snow Demon is down in this abyss, where there's a grand castle and an ice prison made of extreme ice, the ice prison has many ice demons guarding it, we need to kill all the ice demons there to get close to the ice prison and rescue my family."
The snow monster seemed extremely familiar with the environment there.
Shen Dou looked at the snow monster in incredulity and asked in surprise: "Have you been there?"
"Hmm, before meeting you all, I sneaked in alone and found out that Snow Demon is currently in seclusion to cultivate the Frosty Ice Slaying Technique, too busy to care about external matters. Now is the best time for us to rescue our family members."
The snow monster seemed to say hastily, and then turned its gaze to the field, saying softly: "She doesn't seem to know any martial arts."
"Although she can't fight, she's the best helper to ensure we can keep fighting." Shen Dou tightly grasped Yan Mo's hand and looked at her expressionless face with satisfaction, thinking to himself: "She must be thinking I'm being too nosy."
"Alright, let's go down together." As he spoke, the Snow Monster suddenly leaped up, carrying that huge bundle on his back, and rapidly fell downwards towards the cliff.
Shen Du saw this and didn't hesitate at all. He wrapped his arms around the slender waist of Yan Liu, stepped on empty air, and rapidly descended downwards.
The cliff was indeed deep enough. It took them about half a time to reach the bottom of the cliff. For more and faster chapters, please go to.
This is a secluded paradise on earth, with steep cliffs on all sides that are impossible to climb, but the vast peach garden stretches for thousands of miles, with breathtaking scenery.
Those ice and snow in the vast sky, also don't know when they will melt, unexpectedly not a single one can reach the foot of the cliff.
"Where is this place? Why isn't it windy or snowy, but instead filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms?" Yan Mu asked in a soft and astonished tone.
"This is the lair of the Snow Demon, the Illusory Peach Garden." The snow monster replied first.
"What's 'Fantasy Peach Garden'?" Yan Mu muttered the name to himself, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity, yet unable to recall it for a moment. However, he felt an overwhelming fear towards this place.
Any demon who has practiced the Holy Spirit technique will find that intuition is always the most accurate.
She tightly hugged Shen Du's arm and whispered: "Shen Du, let's hurry up and leave this place, I have a hunch that this is an extremely terrifying place."
"Fear." Shendu looked around, apart from the beautiful peach garden, there were also distant picturesque mountains in the distance, with a few unknown birds flying freely in the sky above the mountains, giving people a feeling of exhilaration. So he comfortingly patted Xianmo's small hand and said softly: "Don't worry, I'm here, I definitely won't let you get hurt at all."
Although he had absolute confidence in Shendu, Yanmo was still uneasy and felt that this place was not a place to stay for long.
"Don't be afraid, I'm very familiar with the terrain here. Just follow me and you'll be fine." The Snow Monster said with a faint smile.
And her every word and action, in Shen Du's eyes, always had a kind of inexplicable feeling, silently following behind her, walking towards the depths of Peach Garden...
Deep in the peach orchard, it was still a peach orchard. The snow monster kept taking out some black powder from the big bag behind its back and sprinkling it on the ground, as if marking the places they had been to.
They walked straight ahead and after a while they saw black powder on the ground.
"Huh, isn't that..."
"We've come back again?" Shen Du asked with a surprised face.
Looking ahead, those birds are still circling in the sky above the distant green mountain. Shendu wondered if they should focus their attention on that mountain.
"Don't head towards that mountain, it's just an illusion, the mountain doesn't exist at all." The snow monster seemed to know what Shen Du was thinking and said straightforwardly: "Actually, I already knew this outcome. As long as we follow the black powder in reverse now, we can leave Peach Garden."
Shen Dou listened and became somewhat confused, "Following that black powder back, wouldn't we end up back here?"
"Of course not, just follow me." The snow monster took the lead and started walking.
Once again following behind the Snow Monster, I turned around to look at those distant green hills, only to find that they had already disappeared. In their place was a vast expanse of ocean that seemed to meet the sky.
"How could this be?" Shen Du asked curiously.
"Don't ask too much, just follow me." The snow monster said in a commanding tone.
Continued sprinkling white powder on the ground.
Shen Du was really getting confused about what was going on. As he walked, he suddenly discovered that the black powder on the ground was automatically dispersing and moving.
She held onto his hand even tighter.
"What's wrong." Yan Muo asked vigilantly.
"It's nothing, it seems this place is indeed not that simple." Shen Du said in a low voice, his face suddenly becoming solemn.
"Be quiet and follow me." The snow monster commanded once again.
"But this young man looked somewhat displeased and said: 'We're here to help you, what's with the attitude?'"
"I'm also considering your safety, if you insist on stirring up trouble and attracting the Ice Demon, it'll be hard for you to leave this Peach Garden filled with formations." The Snow Monster stopped in its tracks, turned around and said gruffly.
"Hmmph, is that so? You're being a bit too much, aren't you? No matter what, we came to help you, not to be ridiculed by you." Yan Mu said with equal annoyance.
"You..." The Snow Monster was at a loss for words and suddenly fell silent.
Shen stood between the two, not knowing what to say for a moment. Suddenly, he said: "We are now like grasshoppers tied to the same string. Why don't we get along well, put aside our grudges and think about how to get out of here?"
"What, we came to help her, didn't expect her to be so rude. I really don't want to help someone like that." Yan Mo shook off Shen Dou's hand and pouted.
"Alright, if you're so capable, then wait here alone. I'll go to the Ice Prison with Shen Dou to rescue people." He gave a hint to Shen Dou as he spoke.
Shen Du was able to be reborn thanks to Yan Mo's rescue, and for five years, he had been carefully taken care of by Yan Mo. Moreover, her eyes were blinded for his sake, so he would absolutely not abandon Yan Mo.
Seeing Xue Guai being so ruthless, Shen Dou also started to retreat, coldly saying: "I've always hated people who stir up trouble and drive a wedge between others. Since you're that kind of person, I have no intention of helping you anymore." With that, he prepared to leave.
"Who would have thought that the Snow Demon's expression changed in an instant, his face cold and stern as he said: 'Hmph, even if you want to go back now, it's impossible. Unless I help you, none of you will be able to leave the Illusory Peach Garden alive.'"
As he spoke, he continued on his way, paying no attention to anything else.
Gazing resentfully at the Snow Monster's receding back, Shen Du's heart tightened, but he still had no choice but to pull Yan Mo's hand and follow closely behind.
Alas, who made him agree to the Snow Monster's request earlier? Now it's too late for regrets.
