Seeing that the Skull Lady recognized the Purple Yuan Peony, Su Chen knew that the Purple Yuan Peony was indeed extraordinary as he had guessed.
Since that was the case, Su Chen didn't need to play dumb. He grabbed the crystal skull with his Heaven Punishing Capturing Hand and asked, "Tell me everything you know about this Holy Herb."
"Hey, hey, hey, how dare you threaten me like this? Be careful or I'll go crazy!"
The Skull Sister said angrily. She kept shaking her skull, trying to break free from Su Chen's grasp. However, Su Chen's strength was shocking. Under the pressure of a Saint, the Skull Sister quickly admitted defeat.
Her strength was not bad. She was strong enough to crush Su Chen in the past. However, things were different now. Facing Su Chen now, she could only admit defeat.
However, after this interaction, Su Chen became even more curious about the background of the skeleton lady.
Her strength was higher than Su Chen had imagined. Even if she was only left with a skull, her strength was not inferior to that of an Inextinguishable Tribulation expert.
Moreover, there was an extremely strong soul power in her skull.
She was dead and only her bones were left, but she still had such tyrannical strength. This showed that the Skull Sister's strength was definitely extraordinary when she was alive.
Thinking that the Skull Sister was not a native of the Xuanyuan Continent, her origin was even more mysterious.
However, Su Chen didn't care too much. He was more concerned about the Purple Peony now.
After all, this was a living Holy Herb. The value of a Holy Herb was immeasurable. In comparison, a skull was nothing.
After all, she was only a skull. She didn't have any memories of the past. No matter how powerful her previous identity was, she couldn't cause any trouble now.
"Okay, okay, okay. Let me go first. I'll tell you everything I know, stinky brother."
Su Chen was speechless. He used a little strength in his palm and squeezed the skull until it made a creaking sound.
"Ah, ah, ah, I was wrong. I shouldn't have called you stinky brother. You're Little Brother Xiang, my Little Brother Xiang!"
Isn't that still taking advantage of me?
Su Chen shook his head helplessly. He used his divine inscriptions to wrap around the skull so that it would release her.
"Speak. Don't try to hide anything. I can tell if what you say is true or false."
"Cough cough …"
Sister Skull cleared her throat.
Of course, it was a simulation. Right now, she could only use her soul to transmit her voice.
"This Purple Yuan Peony is not a product of Xuanyuan Star. It came from the Great Thousand World through the Tower of Babel. It seems to have happened more than seventy thousand years ago. At that time, I just happened to find it. At that time, it was just a seed, so I planted it and watered it with liquefied vitality every day. It was really hard, but the growth of sacred medicine was slow. Over time, I forgot about it and couldn't even remember where to plant it. Today, I am very gratified to see it again. After all, this Purple Yuan Peony was on the verge of withering several times. I thought it had died long ago."
"A bunch of nonsense."
Su Chen angrily knocked on the skull of the skeleton.
If the latter had eyes, she would be rolling her eyes at Su Chen.
"Came from the Upper Realm … seventy thousand years ago …"
Su Chen frowned and thought for a moment. Suddenly, he thought of something.
The Revered One of the World, Yu Tianheng, also fell seventy thousand years ago.
Then, was there a possibility that the Purple Yuan Peony was related to Yu Tianheng?
Judging from the time, it seemed a little far-fetched. However, Yu Tianheng had a strange connection with Xuanyuan Star. It was still a mystery as to why he sealed the Lord of Seven Treasures on Xuanyuan Star. After all, there were so many small cultivation realms. There must be a reason why he chose Xuanyuan Star.
It seemed that he had to find a way to get the Purple Yuan Peony.
With Su Chen's strength and status, if he appeared in public and took the Purple Yuan Peony, it would not be much of a problem. However, that would be no different from taking it by force. If he was facing an enemy, Su Chen would not feel the slightest pressure. However, Tiangang City was his territory. It would be beneath his status to lay his hands on his own people and take away their object of faith.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Su Chen still found a good way.
Replace the crown prince with a raccoon.
The people did not know the goods and could not recognize how extraordinary the Purple Yuan Peony was. As long as Su Chen could get a fake Purple Yuan Peony to replace it, he could take the Purple Yuan Peony away without anyone knowing.
He did as he said.
Su Chen immediately let the girls move freely. He left alone and went to the nearby mountains to search for fake materials.
In less than an hour, Su Chen had collected thousands of wild peonies.
Using the talent of the Seven Brilliance Treasured Body, Su Chen could fuse these peonies and refine them.
First, he used the divine patterns to simulate the shape of the Purple Yuan Peony. Then, he fused the peony, modified the details, and dyed it.
Soon, a brand-new Purple Yuan Peony appeared in front of Su Chen.
He then injected his soul power into it and let the fake Purple Yuan Peony awaken its vitality. It was enough to pass off as the real thing.
When he returned to Tiangang City with the fake Purple Yuan Peony, it was already late at night. However, there were still many people gathered in the square. Su Chen was not in a hurry to make a move. He planned to wait for the people to disperse in two days before replacing it.
In any case, he still had to play in Tiangang City for a few days. He was not in a hurry.
Late at night, when he returned to the house, the girls had already returned from playing and were chatting in the living room.
Su Chen chuckled and went straight into the crowd. He hugged Lin Yuerou with his left hand and Kong Lingxuan with his right. He took off his shoes and put his legs on Hu Youyou and Daisy. He summoned the twins to massage his shoulders and let Chan Miao and Du Xuerong feed him. The pig girl Lin Xiyan played drinking games with him. Gu Qingche, Chu Yanran, and Kitsune were in charge of dancing to warm up the scene …
It was an emperor-level enjoyment.
For the next two days, Su Chen had a lot of fun with a group of beauties. He did not look like a saint at all. He was more like a playboy waiting to die.
In terms of depravity, Su Chen was a professional.
Two days later, the Flower Appreciation Festival finally ended. Su Chen found a time to cover the square with fog. He took the opportunity to take away the Purple Yuan Peony and replace it with a fake one.
With Su Chen's technique, without the eyesight of a saint, it was impossible to distinguish the real thing from the fake.
After getting the Purple Yuan Peony, Su Chen could not wait to start studying it.
This study allowed Su Chen to discover something strange.
There was a very well-hidden soul fluctuation in the Purple Yuan Peony.
This was not the soul of the Purple Yuan Peony itself. It was more like a soul that was sealed in it.
Moreover, this soul fluctuation gave Su Chen a familiar feeling. It was as if a peerless Divine King powerhouse was standing in front of him …
Could Su Chen have guessed correctly? This Purple Yuan Peony was really related to Yu Tianheng?
