Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1211B – A Suicidal Thought

Peachy reached out a hand and a peach blossom appeared.

Bang –

The shouting crab couldn’t even react before he was flung away. With Qin Yu’s eyesight, he was barely able to make out a white shadow that flickered by.

It seemed to be a silver tail.

Shua –

A shimmering blue light flashed and a petite woman with a pair of delicate dragon horns on her head appeared in front of Peachy, her face full of surprise. “Big Sister Peachy, father told me you would come, but I never believed it. Well, it’s great to see you here!”

She reached out to hug Peachy, but while she was still some distance away, she was forced to halt by the cold gaze headed her way. With a shy look, she pouted her lips and said, “Big Sister Peachy, we haven’t seen each other for a long time you know. You didn't treat me like this.”

As she finished speaking, her eyes casually swept over Qin Yu and a cold light burst out.

Although Dragini’s eyes were vague and the cold flicker was just for an instant, it wasn’t able to escape Qin Yu’s notice.

His heart skipped a beat. He thought that when people sat at home, disasters would fall down from the heavens – this phrase couldn’t be any truer than right now!

If Peachy doesn’t want to get close to you, what does that have to do with me? That look is like little knives flying at me; do you have to be so scary!?

Ah…

No, that wasn’t right. Those eyes just now…

Qin Yu revealed a strange look on his face. The more he thought about it, the more it didn’t seem right. When she looked at him there were three points of anger, three points of dread, and the rest was a warning.

That’s right, it was a warning!

Warning him? Warning him about what? Could she be warning him to not approach Peachy? As this thought appeared, Qin Yu suddenly stiffened. He thought that maybe he was becoming tired of living, to have such a disrespectful and rude thought.

What nonsense!

One of them was the Peach Blossom Spring Master and the other was the East Sea Dragon Saint. Both were True Saints who had reached the other shore and lived for an unknown number of years. If someone were to think that their daughters deviated in that way, how was that different from courting death?

Stop it. Stop right there! Completely forget that suicidal thought!

Qin Yu kept his head down and his eyes low, trying to keep his thoughts blank.

Dragini’s lips curled up on a mocking smile. She thought that this attractive new face from the peach garden might look nice, but his courage was too lacking.

Peachy would never take a liking to this kind of man that was as timid as a rabbit! Hum hum, the alarm was lifted!

Qin Yu never imagined that the suicidal thought he had was half correct.

“Big Sister Peachy, I was preparing a birthday present to offer father. He has liked you since you were little, so how about giving me some advice?”

Peachy had a faint expression, “I don’t have the time.”

“Don’t be like that, Big Sister Peachy. I’ll be fast and won’t delay you for too long, so why don’t you help me?”

“Let’s go.” Peachy turned and walked away.

Shua –

Dragini blocked them in an instant. She was so fast that Qin Yu’s eyebrows leapt up.

“Okay, okay, okay, I will choose a gift myself so rest here and then we’ll go to the East Sea together.”

Peachy looked at her and nodded.

Dragini’s dragon palace was located on the seabed. A description like ‘resplendent in gold and jade’ was not enough to describe the magnificence of this palace.

All sorts of treasures were scattered around as if they didn’t cost anything. They were directly embedded into the ground, the pillars, and the walls!

Just looking at it was blinding!

The only time Qin Yu had seen something comparable was in the special courtyard that the spirit body had prepared in the Land of Disorder.

When Peachy entered the dragon palace, her status and treatment was even higher than it was in the peach garden. Everyone had a bright smile, every action and movement they made an attempt to flatter her.

But unfortunately, Qin Yu’s treatment was at another extreme. He was tossed into a guest room and warned to not casually come out.

It seemed that this Dragini was well-loved by the East Sea Dragon Saint, otherwise she would never dare to treat the newly minted Ninth Mister of the peach garden like this. Thinking about it, if it weren’t for the Dragon Saint’s favor, Dragini wouldn’t have the qualifications to be close with the Spring Master’s daughter.

Because this was the way it was, he would accept it. His mentality was good, and since he had correctly guessed Dragini’s somewhat unusual orientation, he understood her actions better.

In order to avoid aggravating Dragini and causing unnecessary troubles, he would stay in his room and not do anything. He would also be able to consolidate his cultivation with this time. After all, while there hadn’t been many hidden dangers in hurrying to take a step forward, there were still some, so it was best to be careful.

He would cultivate. And when it was time to set off, someone would call him…ah, Peachy had personally chosen him to accompany her, so she wouldn’t forget him here, right?

Peachy sat in a guest room. Her eyes glanced around at the gorgeous architectural design of the dragon palace, but none of her focus was there.

It had been her decision to call Qin Yu out, but what about after that? Peachy had no choice but to acknowledge that she wasn’t good at communicating with others. It seemed there wasn’t any good way to get the answer she wanted from Qin Yu.

But he…should have some problem. Although Qin Yu’s eyes had been vague, they hadn’t escaped her notice. What secret was Qin Yu hiding? Did this secret have anything to do with the entanglement of destiny that her father spoke about?

There was a knock on the door. Peachy composed herself and said, “Come in.”

Dragini walked in with a smile. “Big Sister Peachy, this is father’s new divine mesmerizing wine. Even I only obtained this small jar and have been hiding it all this time, not willing to drink it. Since you came, it’s just right. We should enjoy it together.”

Peachy’s eyes flashed. “Divine mesmerizing wine? This wine is personally brewed by Senior Dragon Saint and is said to even leave a Saint drunk and dive into the depths of their heart.”

Dragini nodded again and again, “That’s right, that’s right, this is that wine! Big Sister Peachy, let me tell you something, my father wasn’t lying about this at all. There is an old turtle in the East Sea. Although he isn’t my father’s match, he relied on the hardness of his turtle shell to oppose the dragon palace in private for all these years. But some time ago, my father bestowed that old turtle a jar of divine mesmerizing wine. Maybe he was overestimating his ability, but he drank it and shamed himself. If it weren’t for his turtle children and grandchildren taking him away, he would have even blurted out the several absurd affairs he had when he was young.”

A speaker might have no particular intention, but a listener would come up with their own meaning.

The Spring Master had once mentioned the old turtle in the East Sea. He said that because his bloodline at birth was lacking, he was continuously unable to cross the sea. Otherwise, the one that ruled the East Sea and deterred the myriad heavens might not be that greedy and completely shameless old dragon.

Even such a character couldn’t withstand this divine mesmerizing wine and made a fool of himself. If Qin Yu drank it…if he did, couldn’t she ask whatever she wanted, and he wouldn’t remember it at all?

Peachy reached out a hand and took the jar of wine. She looked down and said, “The Spring Mater loves to drink. Then, I will accept this wine.”

Dragini: …

Didn’t I say that we would drink this together? You can’t do this, this is completely changing the script!

And if you don’t drink the divine mesmerizing wine, how will I have a chance!

Of course, this definitely couldn’t be said. In the past she showed just the slightest signs of something wrong, and then she was almost completely cut off by Peachy. It took a long time to restore contact with her.

She squeezed out a smile and said, “Since the Spring Master loves to drink, as a junior it is right for me to make an offering. When we reach the dragon palace, I will plead with father. Since there is good reason, as long as Peachy asks, father would be too embarrassed to refuse. Cough cough…so we should drink this jar now.”

Peachy shook her head. “It’s just this jar. If you can’t bear to give it up, then take it away.”

Dragini almost cried. Sister, I just want to kiss you but it is too hard! I threw out this meat bun but before it even hit the water, it was already taken by you.

She certainly couldn’t take it back, unless she no longer wanted to have any friendship with Peachy. She could only feel sad and try her best to nod.

The shrimp soldiers and crab generals in the dragon palace had no idea what happened, but one thing was for certain – Dragini was in a bad mood. There was no need for anyone to disclose this information. Just by looking at her gloomy eyes and darkened face, it appeared as if she wanted to kill someone.

They all straightened their backs and put forth their best appearance. They did their tasks carefully, doing their best to not make a single mistake. Otherwise, if Dragini were to find out, none of them would have a good ending.

Facts proved that if a disgruntled and annoyed person went looking for trouble, they would eventually find it. In less than half a day, three shrimp soldiers and four crab generals suffered at the hands of Dragini. They received horrific punishment, and their screams of agony caused everyone’s face to pale.

Peachy certainly wouldn’t forget about Qin Yu. After obtaining the divine mesmerizing wine, she had come up with a basic plan. Now, all she lacked was an opening.

So when Dragini proposed to let Qin Yu follow the team carrying the birthday gifts to the East Sea and that the two of them would leave first, she was rejected without hesitation.

The result was that when Qin Yu was called up into Dragini’s imperial carriage, the first thing he saw was her unfriendly glare.

It really was unfriendly, to the point that Qin Yu was worried she would reveal her true form and try to swallow him.

This left him speechless!

You wanted me to stay in my room, and I agreed with that, so what is this attitude? For better or worse, I am still a peach garden disciple. Even if you are the Dragon Saint’s favored daughter, there is a limit to bullying people!
