The Investiture: Unlimited Blade Works Nezha
Chapter 174 - 173 Yuan Feng’s Cordial Greetings

Chapter 174: Chapter 173 Yuan Feng’s Cordial Greetings

Kong Xuan’s exquisite yet emotionless face finally showed a huge expression, one of disdain a hundred times stronger than the disdain he had for his own brother!

"The Primordial Land keeps expanding, and Spiritual Energy is becoming scarce. Where can you find high-quality Spirit Fruit for you to eat?"

Nezha scratched his head. Is this Yuan Feng considered a senior? Should I take the hints from Sister Xiaoqing?

Then he took out several 3,000-year-old Peaches from his sleeve, and Yuan Feng’s beautiful phoenix eyes automatically locked onto Nezha’s hand.

Nezha: "!!!"

He felt that if he didn’t give them to Yuan Feng soon, she would snatch them up. Saying, ’Li Nezha greets the senior, these are some small gifts,’ he handed the Peaches over.

Don’t be fooled by how Nezha uses the Peaches like regular ones, eating and gifting them wildly; they are incredibly precious and only found at the Turquoise Pool of the Heavenly Court.

The Peaches of comparable rank in the world are either in the hands of Saints or old Great Experts. If the Phoenix Clan stirs up trouble for some, the Heavenly Dao would be delighted.

They’re already worried about not having a chance to deal with your remnants. If things are arranged just right by chance, they could get wiped out.

It’s still the same saying, the Primordial doesn’t support idlers. The Heavenly Dao has disliked these power-grabbing but idle Great Experts for a long time.

Yuan Feng took the Peaches, popping them into her mouth like candies. The Peaches, with the size of two adult fists combined, automatically shrank to the size of a dumpling as they reached her mouth, which she chewed with relish as if eating cherry tomatoes.

While eating, she showed a satisfied expression.

The abundant Spiritual Energy of the Peaches is very nourishing for Nezha now, but for Yuan Feng, it’s just about enjoying the taste.

"Kid, what brings you here? These fruits are not bad. If you can bring me ten thousand or so, how about I betroth Little Xuanxuan to you?"

Meanwhile, Nine Heavens Xuan Nu, who was discussing plans: "..."

Have you been listening to what I’ve been saying at all?

Kong Xuan: "..."

How about just leaving her be? Why intervene at all? Dying would also be a relief!

Da Feng wandered around, eyes darting, as if considering the feasibility of this matter. After all, the Phoenix Clan is completely matriarchal; Yuan Feng is the biggest here, and truthfully, she does have the power to marry off Kong Xuan.

Kong Xuan immediately saw through his silly brother’s thoughts and sent a multicolored light to sweep him aside.

Nezha further understood Yuan Feng’s terrible character. Your proposal is interesting, but using Long Ji’s Peaches for this would be too cruel.

Besides, Nezha hasn’t figured out whether Kong Xuan is male or female. Although Da Feng calls Kong Xuan Sixth Sister, he thinks calling him Sixth Brother Kong Xuan would get a response too.

What state is this? A conjugate state of Yin and Yang coexisting?

Such situations aren’t particularly uncommon in the Primordial; even at the Nether River, they claim a Yang gender and still managed to split into a Nether River Mother.

"Senior Yuan Feng is joking, my cultivation is shallow, how could I dare have such delusions? Besides, Peaches are exceedingly rare, the Ren Water Peach Tree is managed by the Queen Mother of the Heavenly Court, how could I have the capability to get a thousand or eight thousand for you?"

Yuan Feng curled her lips and, taking the last Peach, said, "What Queen Mother? If this old lady could go out, I’d bring her back and plant trees too!"

Nezha was truly embarrassed. Given your current situation, leaving the Undying Volcano that sustains your life would probably take your last breath, and you’re thinking of going out for a fight?

Nine Heavens Xuan Nu covered her smooth forehead, also feeling helpless. How did their ancestors endure Yuan Feng’s mouth?

Continuing the conversation was useless; getting to work quickly was the wise choice.

Da Feng continued to stand guard outside, and Yuan Feng released the Undying Volcano’s restrictions. Nine Heavens Xuan Nu and Kong Xuan took turns leading Nezha to the bottom of the Undying Volcano to investigate the situation.

This matter of inserting tubes is truly a delicate task. It can’t be too big; too big would break the ground, and with the current state of the Phoenix Clan, a descent of Karmic Fire would mean the end for them.

It can’t be too small either; too small would make the Chaotic Spiritual Energy too sparse, and Yuan Feng wouldn’t even feel it, making all the effort for nothing.

Nezha took out the ’ruler’ given by Jin Jiao and Silver Horn, the Heart-following Iron Rod Soldiers, and made a trip down to mark the scale. Then, using the ’Super Calculator’ River Map and Luo Book for calculations, he dared not be careless in this work.

If it failed and implicated the Phoenix Clan, it wouldn’t matter much, but it would tarnish the reputation of Nuwa’s lineage, and how could Nezha rely on his skills to make a living in the Primordial afterward?

As for the Heart-following Iron Rod Soldiers, they were needles given by Jin Jiao and Silver Horn. Back then, Lord had crafted these for Dayu as measuring tools and stabilizers, without much care, simply leaving them for Jin Jiao and Silver Horn to watch over.

Jin Jiao and Silver Horn were little boys; they weren’t immune to straight and long rods. Upon finishing, they noticed the flexibility of the rods, so they secretly cut off a piece to play with, thinking it wouldn’t be a big deal.

They ’secretly’ cut a section at Doushuai Temple, and Lord seemed unaware of what the two little children had done and blindly tossed it into the Mortal World.

Thus, Nezha’s rod was only lacking Merit to compare with the Ruyi Jingu Bang. Nezha indeed had Merit, but didn’t find it necessary to use it here. This rod, after assisting in several projects, would certainly be no worse than the one in the East Sea.

Nezha, Nine Heavens Xuan Nu, and Kong Xuan busily running around, while Yuan Feng leisurely entered an exclusive chat group for Chaos Divine Beasts, shared with Ancestor Dragon and Ancestor Qilin.

"Old Loach? Old Loach! Look what I have here!"

Yuan Feng’s stunning face donned an infuriating smirk as she unceasingly taunted Ancestor Dragon.

"Hehe! My son-in-law sent it, you can’t have it!"

With that, she tossed it into her mouth, crunching loudly without a trace of lady-like manners, while simultaneously smacking her lips and taunting Ancestor Dragon, "Ah, I hear it’s one of the Ten Great Spiritual Roots, a Peach? Juicy, indeed!"

Ancestor Dragon, the best among the three founding ancestors, manifested as a remarkably majestic-looking middle-aged emperor, originally didn’t want to entertain that silly bird.

But the more he listened, the angrier he got; known for his wisdom, Ancestor Dragon couldn’t hold back his temper any longer and retorted, "It’s just Peaches. I thought it was something extraordinary! By its color, it’s only the lowest rank, 3,000-year-old Peach, which I don’t care for!"

"Even if you don’t care, you can’t eat it!"

"I don’t bother eating them!"

"You don’t have it! If you do, show me!"

"The broken thing of 3,000 years! If I’m eating, it’s a 9,000-year-old!"

"I don’t believe you, braggart!"

Ancestor Dragon immediately got furious, starting a long string of dragon-tongue endearments: "******..."

Yuan Feng never backs down from a verbal fight, least of all with her old rival!

She put her hands on her hips and began a rapid torrent of bird language: "*******..."
