Pei Yunshu had lived here for a long time and had never known that there were peach blossoms on Santian Peak.
There was a light layer of pink on the ground, and the whole yard was filled with the fragrance of peach blossoms. However, with so many peach trees blooming overnight, Pei Yunshu did not detect any evil spirit among them.
When they were about to leave, two unexpected things happened one after another, and several people looked a little serious. When Pei Yunshu went to watch the battle, Zhu You did not plan to go with him. He and Baili Ge planned to investigate what was going on on Santian Peak.
Huayue was unable to transform yet, and the two great demons were not with him, so Pei Yunshu brought Huayue to his side.
When they arrived at the location, the fox became excited.
"Beautiful lady Yunshu, please look in that direction!" The fox said, "That beauty has pretty eyes and red lips. She is really pleasing to the fox!"
"The beauty in purple on the stage is really pretty. Is there anyone who uses sleeves as weapons? That's really cool."
There is always a shortage of good-looking young talents in each sect. Fox hasn't seen so many people for a long time, and his eyes never stopped looking at them.
Pei Yunshu took him to the bottom of the ring, and a pretty lady in purple on the stands had already knocked her opponent off the stage with ease.
"Beauty, what sect does this person belong to?"
Pei Yunshu shook his head, "I don't know either."
A slightly plump fellow Taoist beside him turned around, chuckled twice, and took out a small book the size of a palm and the thickness of a finger from his bosom, and said enthusiastically: "My fellow Taoist, this book has collected information about fellow Taoists from various sects participating in the competition. With only five mid-grade spirit stones, you can know everything you want to know."
The fat Taoist fellow talked nonstop, pointing at the purple-clothed man on the stage and said, "This person is on page 108 of the book. He is the son of the head of the Xuanyi Sect. His strength and temperament are equally strong. Although he is ranked on page 108, our young palace master said that this person is very likely to enter the top ten of the competition."
As he spoke, he turned to page 108. This palm-sized book actually came with a portrait, but the painting was not very good. The man in purple on the stage clearly had a handsome and sharp appearance, but in this book, he became an ugly man with small eyes and a big mouth.
The fox looked disdainful, but Pei Yunshu could not resist the enthusiasm of this fellow Taoist, so he took out five spirit stones from his sleeve and bought the book.
The fat Taoist smiled until his eyes narrowed, and he quickly handed the book to Pei Yunshu. Pei Yunshu opened the book and saw a picture of a handsome man in red clothes on the first page. The painting was extremely beautiful, and even the intricate patterns on the clothes were painted very carefully, which was completely different from the rough painting style just now.
Pei Yunshu flipped through the pages quickly. Except for the first page, all the portraits that followed looked like they were drawn by a three-year-old child. The eyebrows were not eyebrows, the eyes were not eyes, and they were all extremely ugly.
He turned the book back to the first page. Compared with the portrait at the back, the man in the painting was 80% handsome and looked very good. He lowered his head to read the words below, which read: Wu Jiu, the Young Palace Master of Yuanling Palace, will most likely top the list of this cultivation competition.
The fat Taoist friend came closer and took a look, and said happily: "This is our Young Palace Master."
"Is this book also written by your Young Palace Master?"
Fat Daoist nodded proudly, "Of course, only our Young Palace Master can think of such a clever way to make money."
He made and sold his own books, and even said that he would be at the top of the list. Pei Yunshu really admired this man's courage.
He turned the book to the back and paused after seeing a painting. Then he pointed at the painting in the book and asked, "Did you draw this, too?"
Fat Daoist friend looked at it and said, "Oh, Pei Yunshu from Shanshui Sect, this painting was indeed painted by us. I heard that this person broke through the golden elixir not long ago. Alas, the disciples of Shanshui Sect should not be underestimated. Our young palace master said that this person has never been in contact with the mortal world. If we are drawn with him, we plan to transform into a beautiful woman to seduce this person and then defeat him in one fell swoop."
Pei Yunshu was silent.
The fat Taoist friend kept talking, proudly telling all the ways his young palace master "got first place with his wonderful ideas", and finally stopped talking until his mouth was dry. He looked at Pei Yunshu with moved eyes, "Daoyou, you are the first person I met in the cultivation competition who is willing to listen to me talk so much. I don't know your name, I will treat you to some spiritual fruit."
Pei Yunshu thought of his own portrait in the book.
He paused for a moment before slowly saying, "I am Pei Yunshu, a disciple of the Danshui Sect."
Fat Taoist friend: “…”

After Pei Yunshu reported his name, the fat Taoist friend walked away with an awkward smile.
Pei Yunshu and Hua Yue watched the fight for the whole morning. At noon, Pei Yunshu took him to draw the opponent for tomorrow's fight.
There was a very long queue at the draw, and Pei Yunshu was at the end. He didn't feel bored even though he was holding Hua Yue, but he had to keep a blank expression on his face, which made him look a little difficult to approach.
"Beautiful lady Yunshu," Hua Yue flipped the book with her claws and sent a voice message to Pei Yunshu, "I found that the prettier the beauty, the more likely that the young palace master would paint her as an ugly person. For example, you look even uglier in the painting than the beauty in purple."
Hua Yue was filled with indignation, "This man is so bad, he's the only one who looks good. If someone who has never seen you believed this, they would really think there is only one handsome male cultivator named Wu Jiu in the entire cultivation world!"
Pei Yunshu just thought it was funny and didn't take it seriously. "It should just be a joke."
Huayue was turning the pages of the book, but her claws were not holding it firmly, and the book fell and hit the purple boots of the person queuing behind her.
The person behind him took a look at the book, bent down and picked it up, but when he picked it up, he just stared at the contents of the book without moving.
Pei Yunshu turned around and was about to thank him, but when he saw the man's face clearly, he was also stunned. Isn't this the son of the leader of Xuanyi Sect who had just fought with someone
This man was dressed in purple and had an unruly look. He turned his eyes away from the small book and looked at Pei Yunshu, "Where did this book come from?"
Pei Yunshu told the truth, "I bought it from a fellow Taoist."
"How many spirit stones did it cost?" the man asked.
"Five middle-grade spirit stones."
"I want it," the man took out a bag of spirit stones, "there are thirty middle-grade spirit stones in it, do you want to sell it?"
"If you want it, I'll give it to you," Pei Yunshu said, "I've already read everything on it, so you don't have to give me the spirit stones."
This person looked at Pei Yunshu in surprise. He did not expect that this seemingly cold person could be so easy to talk to. After looking Pei Yunshu up and down, he raised the corners of his lips and raised his chin. "Bian Rong of Xuanyi Sect, would you like to meet this Taoist friend?"
Pei Yunshu and he exchanged names. After hearing his name, Bian Rong flipped through the book and began to look for Pei Yunshu's portrait. When he saw the content above, his original anger turned into a smile, "You are so ugly, I am not the only one."
Pei Yunshu wanted to smile, but this time outside, the corners of his lips were about to curl up, but he was restrained and could only nod slightly.
The two chatted briefly, and when it was Pei Yunshu's turn to draw lots, he didn't say much. Instead, Hua Yue and Bian Rong had already begun to jointly condemn Wu Jiu, the young palace master of Yuanling Palace.
The person in charge of drawing lots was a disciple from Shanshui Sect. When this senior brother saw Pei Yunshu, he smiled and said, "Junior brother, you must draw a good lot. Senior Brother Yuncheng just asked me if you had come to draw lots. It's only been half an hour. If you draw a good lot, Senior Brother Yuncheng and the others won't have to worry."
Pei Yunshu's brows turned cold, he hummed softly, and pulled out a thin wooden stick. There was a line of small words on the front of the wooden stick. Pei Yunshu looked at it carefully and saw the five words "Yuanling Palace Wu Jiu" written on it.
He instantly remembered what the fat Taoist friend had said.
It seems that this young palace master is planning to transform into a female cultivator and use the beauty trap on him

In the evening, after Pei Yunshu and Hua Yue returned, Zhu You and Baili Ge were already waiting in the yard.
The peach blossoms are in full bloom. A day has passed and the sun has set, but the peach blossoms still show no signs of decadence.
Pei Yunshu sat aside, rubbing his face, "Did you find anything?"
"Not really," Baili Ge smiled, "but there is good news. Your master has gone into seclusion to practice, and he won't be coming out in the short term."
Pei Yunshu was stunned, and couldn't help but smile, "Really?"
Baili Ge glanced at Zhu You with a smile, and Pei Yunshu also looked at Zhu You expectantly. Zhu You nodded and said concisely, "I'm in seclusion."
There is no need for the master to show up in the cultivation competition. If the master were to go into seclusion, then no one in the entire Danshui Sect would have a higher level of cultivation than Zhu You.
They felt really relieved when they left Shanshui Sect.
Huayue was overjoyed, "Okay!"
Baili Ge smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it these few days, but Yunshu needs to pretend for a few days. When we get out of the mountain, Yunshu can laugh as much as she wants, and you can do whatever you want. By then, Ge will know that there are still a few ownerless secret realms that have not been explored. When we get out, we will take these secret realms one by one, one for each of us."
Pei Yunshu opened his eyes wide, "This is really too exaggerated."
Baili Ge shook his finger lightly, "There are more than ten or twenty secret realms in Ge's hands, and the Fox Tribe Secret Realm is just a small one among them. If Yunshu likes it, we can get as many as he wants."
The ignorant Pei Yunshu and Hua Yue gasped.
Zhu You glanced at Bailigo, frowned imperceptibly, and reached quietly into his sleeves.
But he didn't have any secrets.
The eyebrows were unexpectedly depressed.
Baili Ge was really pleased with the looks from Pei Yunshu and Hua Yue. He laughed loudly. Hua Yue asked, "Where are these dozen or so secret realms you mentioned?"
Baili Ge stopped laughing, and an embarrassed look appeared on his face. "Ge collected one and threw one away. I don't know where I threw these secret realms. I'm afraid that many of them have become the property of others."
Zhu You sneered unceremoniously.
After mocking Baili Ge, he walked over to sit next to Pei Yunshu, his dark eyes serious, "I will collect many secret realms."
Pei Yunshu looked at him in confusion.
Zhu You thought for a moment and said, "Collect thirty or forty secret realms."
There are probably only about a hundred secret realms in the entire cultivation world. Pei Yunshu smiled but did not discourage him. "If that day comes, I'm afraid Zhu You won't be able to spend all his spirit stones."
He joked: "Then I'll have to ask Zhu You to take care of me."
The corners of Zhu You's lips curled up, and he brushed his fingers through Pei Yunshu's black hair, "Yeah."
He will definitely take good care of Pei Yunshu, and even when it comes to mating, he will learn the skills well.
Let Yunshu also show the same happy expression as in the painting.
