When Nan Ji finished absorbing the Ren Water Immortal Peach, his realm had already broken through from the early stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal to the middle stage.

Nan Ji was very satisfied with this cultivation speed.

After all, in the current Great Desolation, the Dao Ancestor only taught the cultivation path of Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Even Nan Ji's senior martial uncle, Laozi, was only at the late stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

Tongtian, who was observing this scene in secret, was amused. He said to Yuan Shi with schadenfreude, "Second Brother, this little Nan Ji's cultivation is the same as yours now."

Yuan Shi was woken up by Tongtian's voice. He glanced at Tongtian unhappily, but his eyes were full of relief.

He did not feel any displeasure because Nan Ji's cultivation had reached the same level as his.

The path of cultivation, while diligence is important, luck is also an important part.

However, when Yuan Shi turned his head to look at Tongtian again, the relief in his eyes quickly turned into displeasure.

Slap!

Yuan Shi did not hold back at all. He slapped Tongtian on the head and said unhappily, "You still know that your martial nephew is already in the middle stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal?"

"What about you? Your cultivation is the same as his, and you still have the nerve to say it. How can you be so shameless?"

Hearing Yuan Shi's words, Tongtian felt extremely wronged.

Although Yuan Shi did not use any magic power, Tongtian still covered his head and said aggrievedly, "Aren't you also in the middle stage of Grand Unity Golden Immortal? Why are you scolding me?"

The more Tongtian spoke, the angrier Yuan Shi became.

Yuan Shi suddenly stood up and pointed at Tongtian, saying, "Nan Ji is my disciple. If his cultivation is high, I, his Master, am happy."

"Besides, Nan Ji was also brought back by me. His temperament and luck are considered top-notch in the Great Desolation."

"You still want to take disciples? Do you think you can take good disciples?"

Perhaps because Yuan Shi had been talking for too long, Laozi, who was originally cultivating, twitched his mouth and said, "Alright, we should leave seclusion as soon as possible."

Yuan Shi saw that Laozi had spoken.

At this moment, he still respected Laozi very much. So, Yuan Shi glared at Tongtian and continued to sit with his eyes closed.

Meanwhile, Nan Ji woke up and saw Niu Niu and Duo Duo beside him.

Nan Ji said excitedly, "Duo Duo, where did you get that spiritual peach?"

Duo Duo looked at Nan Ji's excited appearance and said in her clicking voice, "That, the Ren Water Immortal Peach? I brought it."

This was indeed something Houtu had casually brought back at the time.

"Ren, Ren Water Immortal Peach?"

Good heavens, Nan Ji's intestines were about to turn green with regret.

This was completely different from the immortal peaches of the Heavenly Court established by Haotian and Yaochi later on.

Why did he cut it into pieces and serve it as a platter?

The key point was that Duo Duo had stolen the peach. What if Queen Mother of the West came looking for them?

Thinking of this, Nan Ji rubbed Duo Duo's head uncomfortably and said, "From now on, you absolutely must not go out. Just live on Xuanqing Peak."

"Ah?"

Duo Duo and Niu Niu looked at Nan Ji curiously, wondering why he said that.

Nan Ji subconsciously patted them and whispered, "You stole the immortal peach from the Queen Mother of the West in the Western Kunlun. What will you do if she comes after you?"

"Besides, what if she's very stingy and takes your life?"

"At least, this is Xuanqing Peak. I think she will have to consider the reputation of my Master and his elders."

After all, he had eaten more than half of it, and his cultivation had broken through a small realm.

He couldn't bring himself to throw Duo Duo out to take the blame.

After he said this, Duo Duo looked at Niu Niu meaningfully and giggled.

Niu Niu, who was the Queen Mother of the West herself, still wanted to struggle and said, "That shouldn't happen. The Queen Mother of the West should be quite reasonable."

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Nan Ji pulled her and Duo Duo even closer.

He whispered mysteriously, "I heard that her true form is a tiger. Have you ever seen a gentle tiger?"

Below Kirin Cliff, the Three Pure Ones stopped their cultivation and cast their divine senses over.

Laozi squinted and watched.

When Yuan Shi saw this, he let out a long sigh of relief.

"This Queen Mother of the West brought this upon herself! Ha..."

After speaking, Tongtian subconsciously glanced at Yuan Shi's palm. Seeing that his palm was still motionless, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to laugh, "Hahahahaha."

Meanwhile, as if afraid they wouldn't take it seriously, Nan Ji lowered his voice even further and said, "I also heard that the Queen Mother of the West eats children, especially little girls like you. She swallows them in one bite without even spitting out the bones."

At this point, Nan Ji noticed Niu Niu's expression change.

Seeing this, Yuanshi could no longer hold back.

"Hahaha..."

Thinking of how Queen Mother of the West had targeted him before, Yuanshi felt as angry then as he was happy now.

Tongtian, however, boldly poked his head over and said, "Second Brother, your laugh is off. Such good news should be celebrated loudly! Like me, a hearty haha... Ah, you hit me again!"

Yuanshi glared at Tongtian with a dark expression, "You say I'm wrong? You..."

Meanwhile, Nan Ji suddenly slapped his forehead, realizing with a start, "You're just a little tiger. Brother wasn't talking about you, but you should be careful not to be as bad as her."

At this moment, Niu Niu, who was actually Queen Mother of the West, found the story increasingly absurd the more she listened.

Yet, she couldn't easily refute it.

Nan Ji looked at her dazed and cute appearance, gripped her shoulders with both hands, and shook her, "Did you hear me? You have to promise your brother, okay!"

Under Nan Ji's earnest gaze, and with Duo Duo's gloating expression...

"Okay!"

Queen Mother of the West uttered the word with great difficulty.

"That's a good girl!"

Nan Ji, holding Niu Niu's hand in one and Duo Duo's in the other, said with satisfaction.

Just then, a voice suddenly came from below Xuanqing Peak, "Three Pure Ones, an old friend has come to visit. We hope for an audience!"

The voice was a rough male one, and Nan Ji's heart tightened upon hearing it.

Immediately after, another male voice rang out, "Big Brother, why all the nonsense? Three Pure Ones, hand them over quickly!"

Hearing this, Nan Ji inwardly lamented.

It's over!

Queen Mother of the West has sent people to chase after me!

"Nan Ji, I and your Martial Uncle and Martial Uncle need to go into seclusion. This matter started because of you, so you go and handle it."

At this moment, Nan Ji heard Yuanshi's telepathic message again.

"I..."

Nan Ji held Niu Niu and Duo Duo's hands, and unconsciously tightened his grip.

But after all, what Master said was correct, so he could only reply, "Yes!"

After replying to Yuanshi, Nan Ji quickly said to Niu Niu and Duo Duo, "Want to play a game with me?"

"You two hide in the three main halls. If Brother can't find you, you can't come out."

"But..."

Duo Duo Houtu wanted to say that those voices belonged to their brothers and sisters, meaning the other eleven Ancestor Witches had arrived. They weren't asking for the Ren Water Immortal Peaches, but were looking for them to go home.

But before she could finish, Nan Ji, anxious, directly said, "If you don't play with Brother, Brother will get angry."

"But..." Duo Duo wanted to say something more, but was pulled by Queen Mother of the West, "Then let's go hide!"

Watching the two hide in the main halls, Nan Ji felt the bitterness in his heart, despite his mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal cultivation, but there was nothing he could do.

He then flashed down to the foot of Xuanqing Peak and saw the eleven people waiting impatiently.

These eleven people, both male and female, all looked different.

So, Nan Ji mustered his courage and spoke, "Greetings, esteemed seniors! May I ask what business you have with my Master?"
