Whether that baleful fiend Di Luonan would clash with the Ren Family was a matter for the future.

The mere scent made people's throats bob as they swallowed, one after another.

"It smells incredible!" someone murmured. "How can it smell this good?"

"I want a peach! Nobody stop me! I'll kill anyone who gets between me and those peaches!"

But while Pan Long could keep himself from being affected, he could not help anyone else.
