Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

“Mr. Wu, I’m afraid there’s some misunderstanding between us.” Shen Jiaojiao touched her hair and smiled gently. “What happened between my sister and me is a family matter and shouldn’t affect Mr. Wu’s opinion of me.”

There were faint tears in her eyes, and her pale face was covered with some dirt.

It made her look exceptionally delicate and beautiful. "Now that we've unintentionally wandered into this ghost's territory, why don't we hurry up and leave while she's not here?"

"What if she comes back and tries to hurt us again?"

Unfortunately, in Wu Xingyun's eyes, the yin energy behind her had condensed into a huge skull, which was silently roaring at him with its mouth open.

"Hiss—" He gasped, grabbing Zhao Feng's arm and shaking his head repeatedly: "Don't come any closer! If you want to leave, leave now!"

Zhao Feng quickly added, "Yes, yes, we won't leave yet. You can leave if you want!"

"Forget about them, let's figure out a way to leave quickly!" Luo Jing had a bad feeling and couldn't wait to leave.

But after seeing the disdainful looks from Zhao Feng and Wu Xingyun, he said, "My daughter is all alone somewhere, I need to go out and find her right away!"

Shen Jiaojiao sneered silently. Wasn't he the one who had desperately used his daughter to block the wolves just now?

"Then hurry up and find a way out!" Wu Xingyun didn't want to watch their performance and waved them away: "Stop dawdling here."

He even pointed in the direction they came from, adding, "We just came in from that side. If you want to get out, you can try going that way—"

But whether he would encounter Wu Zhao's little bear outside, he couldn't guarantee. Wu Xingyun thought to himself.

Shen Jiaojiao still wanted to get closer to Wu Xingyun, but the statue kept clamoring to approach Wu Xingyun.

She bit her lip, and after taking just one step, she felt something hit her on Wu Xingyun's body.

The burning pain made her cry out in pain and almost fall to the ground.

Wu Xingyun noticed the scalding heat emanating from the talisman in his arms. He looked at Shen Jiaojiao warily and said, "Don't come any closer, or I can't guarantee what might happen."

Luo Jing, carrying Shen Zhuo, was getting impatient. He said, "Shen Jiaojiao, are you leaving or not? If you're not leaving, I'm handing Shen Zhuo over to you. I'm leaving!"

He couldn't stand this place for even a minute longer. He had a feeling that if he didn't leave now, he might pay a heavy price!

In the midst of the stalemate, this space and the heavens and earth suddenly came to a standstill.

With a soft "pop," it sounded like something had been punctured.

The sky shattered as if a mirror had been opened, and through the cracks, Wu Xingyun saw a pale yet handsome and dignified face.

He excitedly grabbed Zhao Feng and rushed over, exclaiming, "Gu, Patriarch Gu!"

Gu Chen's cold gaze swept over him and Zhao Feng, then looked at Shen Jiaojiao, whose face had turned ashen, and Luo Jing, who was overjoyed.

"Zhaozhao, where are you?"

……

There was a faint fragrance of peach blossoms, and the sound of flowing water could be heard.

I don't know who was laughing and joking around.

It carries a sense of stability and peace.

Wu Zhao looked at the small village in front of him that was exactly the same as the one in Peach Blossom Spring, and the aura of Peach Fairy beside him was already somewhat disordered.

“Yes, it’s the village of my benefactor…” Tao Xian murmured to herself.

In the center of the village, a small tree had just been planted by several children.

Tao Xian immediately spotted one of the little girls wearing a white dress.

The little girl in white had a smile on her lips and a deep dimple on her left cheek.

"She's my benefactor!" When Tao Xian saw the little girl, her eyes instantly lit up with an astonishing warmth, and she was about to pounce on her.

Quickly grabbing her, Wu Zhao said, "These are your memories, don't worry!"

"My...memories...?" Tao Xian was taken aback.

She stood there, watching the little girl in white water the saplings day after day.

Watching her confide her secrets to the sapling that had grown taller.

“Little tree, the villagers say you are a peach tree. Where did you come from? When they found you, it was as if you suddenly appeared outside the village.”

The girl had no idea that she was a peach tree that had survived a tribulation. Originally, she lived deep in the mountains, detached from worldly affairs.

Unexpectedly, it was struck by lightning and returned to its infancy, falling into the river and being swept to the vicinity of the village.

The girl planted it in the ground, saving its life.

The little girl said to the sapling that she hoped she could leave the mountains and the village to go to the big city.

She also made a wish that if she could make something of herself, she would come back and improve the living environment of the village.

The sapling grew taller and taller, but the girl had to leave the village.

"Little tree, little tree, I wish you could bloom beautiful flowers. I hope that when I come back next time, I can eat the fruit you bear."

"While I'm not back, will you watch over the village for me?"

The sapling, which had only developed a little intelligence, could only try its best to shake its branches in response.

Later, the girl left.

The sapling waited and waited, until it grew into a big tree, full of peach blossoms, and bore fruit...

The girl did not return.

The simple peach tree silently guards the village, which is gradually being reduced to only old people.

Later, everyone in the village left.

The girl still hasn't come back.

Later, the idyllic village disappeared in an earthquake.

Tao Xian never saw the girl return, and the village she had promised to protect for her was gone.

Somewhat at a loss, she used her own strength to create a paradise and continued to wait day after day...

Then, Wu Zhao arrived.

The bloody tears on Tao Xian's face disappeared, and two lines of clear tears slid down her face.

The evil spirit's appearance was gone, and her face returned to its youthful and beautiful state.

"Little peach tree, is that you?"

The girl in the white dress, who had been talking to the peach tree with her head down, suddenly looked up at Peach Fairy.

That familiar face of Tao Xian slowly became mature and unfamiliar.

"Hmm, benefactor...?" Tao Xian called out uncertainly.

The spirit, now transparent, laughed, "It really is you! It's been so long. It's so good to see you again..."

"Thank you for protecting the village for me, and thank you for waiting for me all this time..."

A white dress fluttered as the spirit floated before Peach Fairy.

Tao Xian felt herself being gently embraced, and a tender murmur whispered in her ear: "I'm sorry for making you wait so long..."

"Now, you are free."

A gentle breeze blew by, and the spirit dissipated.

"My benefactor!" Tao Xian exclaimed in surprise, reaching out to try and grab something.

Wu Zhao patted her and said, "Her wish has been fulfilled, and she has already passed away."

"It's time for us to go."

This reversal was too wasteful of spiritual power. If it weren't for borrowing the power of the Heavenly Dao just now, I probably wouldn't have been able to summon that spirit back.

The ring on my finger was burning hot.

She grabbed Tao Xian's hand, and the space between them shattered in the next moment.

Before Wu Zhao could even stand still, a panicked voice came from behind him.

"Home, head of the family——!"

Wu Zhao turned around abruptly, and Gu Chen, whose face was ashen, slid off his wheelchair.

Dark red blood slid down from the corner of his lips.

"Gu Chen—!"
