Chapter 2128 Return
Eight thousand miles east from the sacred land of West Kunlun is the secret place where the God Zhenyuan resides.

This secret area is not very big and is located in a high mountain, making life extremely inconvenient.

Perhaps someone had entered and exited the secret place before, but no one thought highly of it and developed it, and eventually the secret place fell into the hands of Zhenyuan Shenjun.

There are some wild animals and monsters in the mountains, and there is also an old tree that occupies the spiritual veins of the mountains.

Before the old tree could transform into a monster, it was pulled out by Zhenyuan God and the longevity fruit tree was stuffed in.

“It’s so hard to make a living away from home!”

Not only was Zhenyuan Shenjun hungry, but his plan also failed.

The planting site he had hoped for was far inferior to the Kunlun Holy Land. After being planted, the longevity fruit trees also found it difficult to adapt to the new environment and now looked wilted.

Neither humans nor trees could adapt to the local climate, and Lord Zhenyuan even felt a little regretful for leaving the Holy Land of Kunlun.

He asked Zhang Xuezhou a few questions in a low voice, and learned from Zhang Xuezhou that the Emperor and the Empress had been in a bad mood recently.

As the manager of the longevity fruit tree, Zhenyuan God cannot guarantee that the longevity fruit tree will survive if it is replanted.

He thought about it over and over again, and felt that there was no way to add fuel to the fire, so the thought of returning to Kunlun disappeared completely.

"Where does the Holy Son want to go?" asked Zhenyuan Shenjun after he finished complaining.

"I want to go back to Chang'an City," Zhang Xuezhou said, "I'll go and participate in the Hundred Years' Agreement in a few years and try to perform better. My teacher and his wife will probably be in a better mood."

"That's a good idea!"

Zhenyuan God nodded, thinking that there was nothing wrong with Zhang Xuezhou's solution.

As long as you avoid the most critical moments, the anger of the Emperor and Empress will subside, and doing some good things appropriately can please them.

Zhenyuan Shenjun is not an old hand at dealing with interpersonal relationships, but given his age, he is knowledgeable about many things.

He felt that the relationship between himself and the Kunlun Holy Land was undoubtedly a bit bad at the moment. Zhenyuan Shenjun thought that it would take time to resolve some conflicts, and then he could show his ability when he had the chance. This would definitely ease the relationship with Kunlun and enable them to interact with each other.

For Lord Zhenyuan, he personally still hopes to maintain a long-term relationship with the Kunlun Holy Land. In case any great god dies, it will be convenient for him to bury the other party's body under the longevity fruit tree.

Having gained 720 years of life span with the help of the Wanshou Fruit Tree, the God Zhenyuan also felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this life span. Perhaps he would need the Wanshou Fruit to maintain this kind of life span at some point, or perhaps after he cultivated and corrected this fruit tree, this drawback might be eliminated.

Both he and Zhang Xuezhou borrowed the power of the longevity fruit tree, and Zhenyuan God did not hide this from Zhang Xuezhou.

"Are you saying that our life span might be fake?"

"It's not a fake lifespan, but we must be careful of the collapse that this lifespan may cause. Once our original lifespan is exhausted, and the lifespan that is continued by practicing the Longevity Art with the help of the Longevity Fruit, if there is a problem with this lifespan extension, we may die instantly!"

“This is a bit risky!”

Zhenyuan God said something, and Zhang Xuezhou felt that it was related to him to a certain extent, but not particularly related. After all, he was not too interested in things like prolonging life. If it had not been for the right opportunity, Zhang Xuezhou would not have had such an idea.

But whenever he encounters this situation, Zhang Xuezhou will understand the situation appropriately so that he doesn't have to beg for help when the need arises.

This made him accept the invitation of Zhenyuan Shenjun and go to the secret place to visit the longevity fruit tree.

Just as Zhenyuan Shenjun said, the fruit tree was indeed wilted and looked like it was dying. Even the longevity fruits hanging on the tree seemed to have lost their golden glow and were slowly turning into silver.

"Generally speaking, when transplanting trees, you need to bring along the soil from the roots of the original tree," Zhang Xuezhou said, pondering his limited knowledge. "This will allow the tree to still think it is in its original environment, and its resistance to the new environment will be very low." "Is that so?"

"This can give the trees a very long buffer period and help them adapt to the new environment!"

The God of Zhenyuan wanted to leave the Kunlun Holy Land a few years ago, and used some tricks on the longevity fruit tree to introduce ants that would eat the fruit tree.

When transplanting the fruit trees to a new environment, he obviously did not want to give these ants the opportunity to gnaw on them.

This allowed Zhenyuan Shenjun to clean the roots of the longevity fruit tree, ensuring that there were no ants or ant eggs, and also cleaned up the soil carried by the longevity fruit tree.

After hearing what Zhang Xuezhou said, Zhenyuan Shenjun couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"So, I have to go to the holy land to get some soil back," said Zhenyuan Shenjun with a frown.

"Given your divine skills, this shouldn't be a problem," said Zhang Xuezhou.

"My skills are not a problem, but I am a little nervous. I am afraid of running into the Emperor and Empress in Wantao Garden!"

After all, Lord Zhenyuan still has to have some dignity. If he can sell his goods well and normalize the relationship with the Holy Land of Kunlun, he will just visit them openly. There is no need to be so sneaky.

But the time was not right yet, and he had a need, which made Zhenyuan Shenjun walk back and forth several times.

"I hope the Holy Son can help me guard this fruit tree, so that no blind beasts or monsters will destroy the seedlings." Zhenyuan Divine Lord thought for a moment and said, "I will be back soon, it won't take long!"

"I am ill and cannot stay outside for too long. I need to return to Chang'an City as soon as possible. This..."

"If Zhen Yuan delays the Holy Son's time, Zhen Yuan will escort the Holy Son back to Chang'an City when the time comes." Zhen Yuan Divine Lord said, "The Holy Son does not need to worry about not being able to return to Chang'an City!"

"Well, then I will guard this fruit tree and wait for the Lord God to come back!"

Although Zhenyuan God's character is not as reassuring as Dong Zhongshu's, Zhang Xuezhou can still trust him, but Zhenyuan God has been able to stay in Kunlun Holy Land for hundreds of years. This also indirectly shows that Zhenyuan God's character is not bad, and can even be said to be rare.

Staying in one place for a long time and never giving up seems to be a simple thing, but it is precisely because of its simplicity that it is difficult to sustain.

Let alone hundreds of years, it is difficult for people to work in a company even for ten or eight years. And things like maintaining a long-term and healthy marriage are a test for countless people.

With a simple calculation, Zhang Xuezhou knew very well the character of people like Zhenyuan Shenjun.

Even if they had only met a few times, this was indeed enough for people to make a judgment. Zhang Xuezhou was not even afraid of the possibility that Zhenyuan Shenjun would do something to him after he changed worlds.

"Thank you, Saint Son. If I can solve the problem of the longevity fruit extending life in the future, I will definitely share it with you, Saint Son!"

Zhenyuan Shenjun ate his fill, and after recovering for a while, he stood up and bowed to Zhang Xuezhou. Then he stepped on the wind and waves and flew towards the Kunlun Holy Land.

"Zhen Yuan Shen Jun should have flown in a straight line, that is, he should have flown in this direction for 8,000 miles!"

Zhang Xuezhou left the Kunlun Holy Land in a daze, and located a rough area.

When Zhenyuan Shenjun performed the reverse flight, he was able to quickly verify and adjust it.

"We need to find a landmark here. This will make it safer so we don't get lost in the future!"

After a simple adjustment, Zhang Xuezhou glanced at the longevity fruit tree, then soared straight into the air, looking for a landmark in the area.
