Ling Zhenfei placed the Peach Blossom Fairy on the bed. At this moment, the struggle in Ling Zhenfei's heart became even fiercer; the Peach Blossom was now by his side, almost within reach.
And from what the Peach Blossom Fairy had hinted at before, it was clear she had tacitly agreed.
Yet the little figures in his mind continued to quarrel, endlessly noisy. In the end, Ling Zhenfei gently covered the Peach Blossom Fairy with a quilt and then left the room.
Softly closing the door to Peach Blossom Fairy's room, he sat alone under the Peach Blossom Tree in the courtyard.
Ling Zhenfei was now under a lot of psychological pressure. Previously, he didn't have such a heavy psychological burden.
After all, aren't women just women? He never refused those who came. But since the incident in Tangcheng, Ling Zhenfei suddenly learned a lot and thought a lot.
There are too many beauties in this world; one can't monopolize them all. It's simply impossible. Debts owed must always be repaid.
The more beautiful the woman, the greater the debt to repay.
So Ling Zhenfei chose to give up, to let go of Bai Ling, to let go of Cao Xueyi, to let go of Xiao Yun, to let go of the Peach Blossom Fairy.
He couldn't say he was giving up; it was more like a temporary release. Maybe Ling Zhenfei had truly let go for the time being.
In the courtyard, he entered into cultivation, while still harboring a question in his heart: what did the Peach Blossom Fairy mean by the Evil Day?
Because he didn't know, Ling Zhenfei could only wait until tomorrow for the Peach Blossom Fairy to wake up and then ask her.
But from the Peach Blossom Fairy's description, this Evil Day was surely terrifying; even though she had been here for so long, she still spoke of the Evil Day with such fear.
With a slight sense of doubt, Ling Zhenfei immersed himself in cultivation.
Early the next morning, the sound of the Peach Blossom Fairy opening her door reached Ling Zhenfei's ears.
In fact, Ling Zhenfei had planned to continue cultivating to let his wounds heal quickly.
But at this moment, the Peach Blossom Fairy took the initiative to speak with him.
"Today is the Evil Day. Let's hide in the room together in a moment."
Ling Zhenfei was stunned after hearing this and asked, "What on earth is the Evil Day?"
The Peach Blossom Fairy said, "I actually came up with that name because this day is the most terrifying in our place."
Ling Zhenfei exclaimed in surprise, "How is it terrifying?"
The Peach Blossom Fairy replied, "As you know, this place was created by the Star Lord—the fish, the trees, the beasts, and the birds here.
At that time, the Star Lord had thought about a problem: how to maintain balance here. You should understand what balance is."
Of course, Ling Zhenfei understood. The balance the Peach Blossom Fairy referred to was similar to what modern humans call ecological balance. Previously, if only the Peach Blossom Fairy lived here,
and suddenly a hundred people lived here, it would undoubtedly disrupt the ecological balance.
These people need to eat, which would lead to excessive fishing, farming, and hunting.
This would inevitably damage the mountains and forests, the animals here, and the plants here.
This is what is referred to as balance.
The Peach Blossom Fairy said, "So to maintain the balance here, every few months, there is an Evil Day to obliterate the excess."
Ling Zhenfei was stunned and asked, "How does this work, and am I now considered extra, at risk of being eliminated?"
The Peach Blossom Fairy shook her head and said, "I have a magical treasure given by the Star Lord, so the two of us can hide in the room and hopefully evade the Evil Day. I've lived here for a long time; it shouldn't be a problem."
At this moment, the clouds in the sky suddenly changed, and the Peach Blossom Fairy showed a trace of shock on her face.
"Oh no, the Evil Day has come earlier. Hurry, come inside with me."
Ling Zhenfei quickly followed the Peach Blossom Fairy into her room.
The two closed all the windows except for a small one to see what was happening outside.
The Peach Blossom Fairy said, "Hide all the Northern Spiritual Energy in your body. Let's stand together."
Ling Zhenfei and the Peach Blossom Fairy stood together. The Peach Blossom Fairy took out her pendant, which was a very beautiful bead.
Although it looked very ordinary, Ling Zhenfei saw that this bead emitted a special light that enveloped him and the Peach Blossom Fairy.
Outside, the clouds in the sky started moving faster and quickly turned pitch black.
The day had just dawned, and in a blink of an eye, it turned dark again.
Ling Zhenfei's heart was filled with concern, unsure of what events would unfold next.
Just then, a thunderous sound came from the Peach Blossom sky, accompanied by loud roars.
Ling Zhenfei was astonished, unsure what these roars were, as the small window didn't reveal what was outside.
Suddenly, the sound of beating came from the roof, and then there were more and more sounds; it began to hail.
The hail was large, hitting the roof with loud clatters. Fortunately, the roof was made of whole logs, very sturdy, so there was no fear of it being damaged.
The sound of lightning became more and more frequent. Through the small window, Ling Zhenfei saw several lightning strikes directly hit the river surface.
In an instant, the entire river seemed to boil like a cauldron, and the creatures within it began to turn over.
Ling Zhenfei was naturally very familiar with the creatures inside, all large monsters, with everything from Octopuses and beyond, naturally terrifying.
But in the face of this celestial might, they were extremely fragile. Soon the river surface was covered with many beast corpses.
Ling Zhenfei knew how terrifying the resting beasts were, and he couldn't believe how vulnerable they were now. Truly, he didn't know how great the power of this heavenly thunder was.
Ling Zhenfei couldn't take his eyes off it, curious about what other terrifying things this Evil Day would unleash.
Meanwhile, the wind in the sky was growing more fierce, causing the petals on the Peach Blossom Tree in the courtyard to fall continuously, swirling in the air.
The peach blossoms seemed to be under some kind of control, spiraling from the air and flying toward the sky.
The lightning in the sky flashed one after another, and because of this continuous lightning, Ling Zhenfei could make out what was happening outside.
Terrifying roars echoed across the sky, a sound that Le Kazafi had never heard before, with no idea where it came from.
However, Ling Zhenfei knew that if that thing appeared, it would undoubtedly be terrifying—dark shadows suddenly emerged in the sky, and with his keen eyesight, Ling Zhenfei could barely make out a massive flock of birds.
The number of birds was staggering, as if they were Zhao Tianbi Ri, blocking out the sky.
He couldn't understand why these birds suddenly appeared at this time, seemingly unaware of the terror of the moment.
Then the most shocking scene for Ling Zhenfei happened. From the dense black cloud layer, something appeared.
That thing was extraordinarily colossal, first extending a claw from the sky, incredibly sharp.
And then, its face emerged from the clouds; what shocked Ling Zhenfei was that this thing resembled the legendary True Dragon.
