Huntblade and Alch-deer happily welcomed Li Qiye back to the courtyard.
âI need to plant some flowers.â Li Qiye smiled at them before walking away with a garden hoe.
â...â The two became perplexed.
Nevertheless, Huntblade rushed over to carry the hoe for Li Qiye. Alch-deer transformed into his true self, offering his service as a mount.
Li Qiye smiled at jumped on his back, telling the deer his destination.
Once they made it to Silence Peak, Alch-deer and Huntblade stopped.
âAncestor, are we heading to the immortal peak? Iâm afraid we canât get through Silence Peak.â Alch-deer said.
The dao suppression in the peak made it impossible for them to pass through. At the very least, the duo was not strong enough.
âNo, here is fine.â Li Qiye entered Silence Peak and gestured, allowing them to bypass the mysterious power.
âWeâre planting here, Ancestor?â Alch-deer asked as Li Qiye took back the hoe.
âItâs so flat and lonely here. We must decorate it with vegetation and flowers.â Li Qiye sat down and smiled.
The two exchanged glances.
âIs it possible?â Huntblade asked quietly.n/oÌ/vel/b//in dot c//om
Silence Peak was the resting place of Silence Ancestor. Everything was denied entry due to her dao. The only thing here was one of the nine lakes, nothing else.
âOf course it is possible. This place will turn into a gorgeous garden soon.â Li Qiye smiled.
One smelled like sweet oranges; another somehow smelled like meat. One emitted sea breezes...
âYour centennial fruit tree. Let me have one to purify my meridians.â Alch-deer salivated before reaching for a fruit.
After finishing the fruit, he gave a thumbs-up and said: âGoing all out I see, offering your 300,000-year-old tree.â
Huntblade was embarrassed about being rejected by Li Qiye earlier while Alch-deer offered his best. Therefore, he offered his best tree despite having spent considerable effort to grow it.
âAncestor, how is this tree?â Huntblade was nervous because he would lose all face if Li Qiye were to refuse.
âRight here.â Li Qiye stopped striking his hoe for a moment and pointed at the ground.
Huntblade heaved a sigh of relief and planted the tree. This would have been impossible but the silence power here allowed Li Qiye to plant.
âThis is far from enough.â Li Qiye said: âDesolate Frontier is vast enough to have more divine trees and plants. Bring them all here.â
âUh...â The duo exchanged glances again.
âAncestor, Iâm afraid they already have owners.â Alch-deer said.
âAnd? Must I go fetch the plants myself? Tell them to bring it here.â Li Qiye said.
âWe will go.â The two obeyed again and left.

âWhat should we do? The others will not agree.â Huntblade felt a headache coming.
âThatâs their problem, we just have to obey. If the ancestor wants some divine trees, they better bring them.â Alch-deer, on the other hand, was in a good mood.
