Chapter 1363 – The Second Avatar of Peachy

The third prince of the West Desolate was widely recognized as the most outstanding prince among the children of the Desolate King. Whether it was in terms of intelligence, personality, or cultivation, he was looked upon highly by the West Desolate.

He was also the most recognized prince under the Desolate King. There was a longstanding rumor that he would be the crown prince who would inherit the seat of the Desolate King in the future.

However, no one in the world was perfect. The only flaw that Li Quanji had was that he was too playful with women. All year round he would be accompanied by beauties, and many girls from the West Desolate had been wrapped under his finger before. He picked among his flowers but he never caused any trouble.

As such, many people were jealous of him. Some even admired him. His ways with women even gave him some plus points and he was favored by many.

After all, women were difficult to handle and no one dared to question this point.

Yet, with such habits, he was bound to get in trouble eventually.

This time when he entered the fragmented area, the third prince was not in a hurry to enter Bounded Zero Place. He originally intended for Li Zhouyi to fight it out with the Mysterious Clan. Then, he would take advantage of Li Zhouyi’s weakened state.

As the most favored prince in the West Desolate, he had many subordinates. Even though he had never been to the fragmented area, there were many eyes for him in Bounded Zero Place. They gave him good control and understanding of the situation.

He was still in the mood to take people along with him to tour the fragmented area. He was even hopeful of meeting beautiful young ladies there.

Strictly speaking, Li Quanji’s wishes were already partially fulfilled. He did meet a beautiful lady. A single glance was all it took for him to be enchanted and for the first time, he felt swept off his feet. He was determined to win her heart.

After many achievements over the years, Li Quanji was very confident. He wore a dashing smile and greeted her politely. Yet, he never thought that he would be beaten bloodily during the first meeting.

This was not just a description, it was what actually happened. He had been hammered till blood poured out of his head wounds. Of the seven True Saints who followed him, only five were left. Two were blown apart.

If he had not personally witnessed and experienced this, who would have imagined that elegant and jaw-dropping lady would be so vicious and violent? Her powers were frightening.

True Saint!

She was an incredibly strong True Saint who was in the fragmented area.

Even more frightening, this woman could use a strange technique of Soul Locking. Li Quanji’s soul had been sealed.

It was said to be a seal, but actually, it felt like a sharp blade twirled around his soul in many rounds. With a single thought, the blade would cut through his soul and split him apart.

This was why the third prince had not entered Bounded Zero Place after so long. He was being controlled by a woman and could not escape. It was alright if his puppet was killed, but if his soul was harmed, it would be an intolerable pain for Li Quanji.

No one had ever thought about this!

The third prince was powerful and well-respected. He even had seven True Saints who accompanied him. Such powers were enough to scare everyone off.

However, this entire group was stuck because of a woman. They had met a strict roadblock, and this was their current predicament.

The five True Saints were not sealed but they could only follow behind and listen to the woman. After all, she threatened them easily with Li Quanji as her hostage!

Despite being True Saints, they would never be able to take the Desolate King’s rage if anything happened to Li Quanji. There was nothing they could do and they could only take it step-by-step, waiting for an opportunity to break through.

Once they saved His Highness, they would leave immediately…what? What revenge? Were they not resentful of the woman?

Nonsense, resentment was nothing but a feeling. What was the point of it? They could not kill her. Based on strength alone, the combined forces of seven True Saints was not enough to take her down originally. Now, they were only a group of five. They had prepared themselves for a reasonable ending.

This woman was terrifying! She was not strong combat-wise but she had a strange technique that no one could guard against.

Right now, this woman stood outside of a peach forest. She had been observing it for quite a while with a frown on her face. Evidently, something was wrong.

The silence was interrupted and the peach forest moved slightly. Then, a couple walked out from the bushes and jumped in surprise when they saw the woman. She tidied her outfit.

Saints were all mature adults with a lot of experience and they knew what happened with just a glance. They were all wondering about the isolation method of the peach forest; it was truly powerful. They were so close but they had not sensed each other at all. Everyone stared at the woman. What was she going to do?

Actually, before the stern woman spoke, the young couple who walked out of the peach forest dropped down to their knees. They desperately kowtowed and cried, “Senior Peachy, please spare us!”

Silence filled the air.

Li Quanji’s eyebrows raised. So they knew each other. That couple should just hurry home and stop letting everyone hear their internal quarrels.

Ridiculous!

However, when he thought about how he lost to this woman and was now being held hostage by her, Li Quanji was depressed.

The woman’s eyes flashed and she rubbed her head. She paused and slowly said, “It seems that I am really like Peachy. I am not at the wrong place.”

The couple were stunned. What was this? She was obviously Peachy. It had long been rumored that the only daughter of the Spring Master was ill and she often spent time recuperating at home. Did she go mad?

If that was the case, they were dead. The two people started to shiver in fright.

The woman did not seem bothered about them. She waved her hand nonchalantly and said, “You guys can go. Tell the Spring Master that he has a guest.”

Suddenly, she blinked her eyes and said, “He found out about me. The Spring Master’s cultivation is really strong, I am in wonder.”

The moment she finished, the space around her shifted and the Spring Master walked out. He waved his hand and directed the young couple back to the Peach Garden. He addressed the woman, “Please forgive me for not inviting you in earlier.” The Spring Master glanced at the men. A light wave of aura spread out, showing his powerful attitude that did not have the slightest bit of fear.

There was no question that he was one of the most powerful True Saints in the Vast Brightness World!

The woman who looked identical to Peachy said, “I think Spring Master, you should know why I am here.”

The Spring Master remained expressionless and he replied, “I did sense something amiss, but I did not think that you would appear here.”

In actual fact, under his calm expression, the Spring Master was shocked.

Peachy cultivated the Path of Ten Thousand Souls and the splitted souls that she could not control turned into seeds that spread out across the world. Some seeds grew into an identical image of her upon reincarnation.

Simply speaking, they were her avatars. However, these avatars were unique in that they had a relationship with the real body and their influence on her was big.

Ning Ling was one such instance. She was a soul born from the seed and she looked identical to Peachy. If not for this, Qin Yu would not have entered the Peach Garden.

It was rare for a person to be born from the seed, and not every splitted soul from the Path of Ten Thousand Souls would give rise to a person.

However, not only did Peachy’s soul give rise to an avatar, she even had two. This woman was the other avatar of Peachy.

She looked at the Spring Master and said, “I can sense that her life is coming to an end. Please give her to me. I can become Peachy, I can become your daughter.”

The Spring Master shook his head, “My daughter is behind me. She isn’t you.”

The woman sighed, “You have already given so much for her and you are a very good father. You don’t have to continue this. I can promise you that I will become the real Peachy after you allow me. I will become everything that she was and you will be my real father.”

The Spring Master stepped forward. He did not speak but a scary energy spilled from his body and the peach forest behind him stirred. Peach blossoms fell off their branches and swirled behind him. The actual effect was much more powerful and he showcased his might.

The woman frowned as she stared at the Spring Master and she seemed to be calming herself down. A few moments later, she took a step back and said, “Since you are determined to turn me down, I will leave for now. With your current health, how long will you be able to protect her for?”

With that, she turned and vanished.

Li Quanji now knew that the man was the Spring Master, and he had been anticipating a grand battle between the Spring Master and the darn woman. He was disappointed. Why didn’t they fight? If they fought, I would have had a chance to escape!

However, through the conversation between the women and the Spring Master, Li Quanji could roughly guess what was going on.

He suddenly grunted and his expression turned pale. Li Quanji did not dare to delay and he flew through the air and caught up to her.

The five World of Darkness True Saints bowed to the Spring Master before they left. This was just a greeting between strong individuals.

Just now, the Spring Master revealed his full power through the unleashing of his aura.

The five Saints wondered if they would be able to stand their ground against him with their real bodies. Furthermore, he was suppressed by the southwest fragmented area. With rules governing his body, the Spring Master’s powers would be weakened too.

If he was in the West Desolate…the Spring Master might be able to challenge for the position of king.

No wonder it was rumored that southwest desolate area men were proud individuals. Still, outstanding people could emerge from it. The previous king of the southwest desolate area was the best example. If he had not been greedy, the rankings of the Desolate areas might be different now.

Cough!

The Spring Master covered his mouth and his face turned extremely pale. He stared after the woman and a look of worry crossed his face. A split soul had managed to grow so strong; what happened exactly?

Even scarier, the woman had seen through his current state, and that was why she did not fight him. She did not want to fight someone on the brink of death.

Once he was gone, the woman would return. The Peach Garden disciples would not be able to fight against her…it was only a matter of time! Something massive was about to happen. The Peach Garden disciples were getting stronger, but time would not wait for them.

Qin Yu…maybe he would be the only one who would be able to support the Peach Garden in the future!
