Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at Yu Daohan, who was blocking his path. "Master Yu, please let me pass. I've had it with this kid for a long time. Today is a good day to teach him a lesson."
Yu Daohan looked at Zhang Xiaoqiang, his face filled with hostility. "Are you crazy? He's your junior brother."
If he hadn't blocked that light sword just now, Li Naifeng would have certainly died.
Zhang Xiaoqiang's eyes were red with killing intent. "Master Yu, if you still consider me a brother, then step aside."
Yu Daohan shook his head. "Qiangzi, you'll regret this."
Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't care about that now, his voice icy. "Move aside!"
Yu Daohan tightened his grip on the Kanglong mace, his gaze resolute. "I won't!"
Zhang Xiaoqiang waved his hand, and the light sword returned to his side. "Don't force me to act, brother!"
Just then, Da Hu also caught up.
Seeing that Zhang Xiaoqiang was truly intent on fighting, Yu Daohan became vigilant.
Qiangzi was not weak to begin with, and now with Da Hu added, even if he could defeat them, he couldn't kill them.
At this tense moment, Su Lai suddenly walked over. "Stop fighting, I've already dug up the seeds."
As he spoke, Su Lai opened his hand, revealing three dirt-covered objects.
Yu Daohan let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Su Lai hadn't been possessed, otherwise it would have been difficult.
Su Lai retracted the seeds and instinctively crushed them.
Zhang Xiaoqiang and Da Hu glanced at Su Lai and lowered their weapons.
Li Naifeng, seeing that the three had returned to normal, also breathed a sigh of relief, muttering, "Scared the life out of me."
Zhang Xiaoqiang looked at Yu Daohan with guilt. "I'm sorry, just now I..."
Yu Daohan raised his hand to interrupt him. "We brothers don't need to say such things."
Although Yu Daohan said this, Zhang Xiaoqiang still lowered his head in shame.
Yu Daohan looked at Da Hu beside him. "Brother Da Hu, I know you were just acting impulsively."
"Master Yu, I..." Da Hu started to speak, but Yu Daohan shook his head. "Let's leave here first."
The group walked out of the peach grove in silence and headed towards the village.
As they left, Zhang Xiaoqiang, Su Lai, and Da Hu subconsciously glanced back in the direction where the seeds were buried, a faint smile appearing on their faces.
Upon arriving at their lodging, Yu Daohan and Li Naifeng decided to pack their belongings and leave immediately.
This Peach Blossom Village was too strange.
Beneath its beautiful facade, an eerie aura emanated.
"Master Yu, why don't we depart tomorrow?" Su Lai said, looking at Yu Daohan.
"This..." Yu Daohan hesitated. To be honest, everything here was too unnervingly perfect, making him uneasy.
Zhang Xiaoqiang nodded in agreement. "That's right. We've already dug up the seeds, so nothing else should happen."
Da Hu remained silent but clearly wanted to stay as well.
After what had just happened, Yu Daohan was a hundred times more unwilling to stay, but not wanting to damage their brotherhood, he could only nod reluctantly. "Alright, we'll depart first thing tomorrow morning."
Yu Daohan then looked at Li Naifeng beside him and asked, "Brother Li, what about you?"
Li Naifeng shook his head. "No, since there are no treasures, I'll be leaving."
He felt a chill just standing here.
Seeing that Li Naifeng didn't intend to stay, Yu Daohan nodded. "Alright, then I'll escort you out."
Li Naifeng also sensed that Yu Daohan had something to say to him and nodded in agreement. "Alright, thank you, Master Yu."
Zhang Xiaoqiang and the others had intended to see him off as well, but Li Naifeng politely declined.
Yu Daohan and Li Naifeng walked towards the village outskirts together.
On the way, Yu Daohan spoke, "Regarding what Qiangzi did earlier, I apologize on his behalf."
Li Naifeng waved his hand and smiled. "Master Yu is joking. I know my senior brother's temper well."
Yu Daohan breathed a sigh of relief hearing Li Naifeng say that.
Li Naifeng looked at the peach blossoms ahead and said, "To be honest, I envy my senior brother for having such a good brother as you."
Yu Daohan smiled faintly and teased, "By the sound of it, do you want to become sworn brothers with me?"
Hearing this, Li Naifeng's eyes lit up. "That's not impossible."
They looked at each other and smiled. Li Naifeng suddenly became serious. "Master Yu, you know how strange this village is. Why didn't you choose to leave today?"
Yu Daohan shook his head helplessly. "To be honest, I want to leave more than anyone, but those three..."
Li Naifeng sighed and shook his head helplessly. "In that case, Master Yu, please remember to leave first thing tomorrow, lest there be any more complications."
Yu Daohan nodded. To be honest, he still felt that Zhang Xiaoqiang and the others hadn't fully returned to normal.
Li Naifeng also noticed what Yu Daohan was thinking. "Master Yu, you also feel they haven't returned to normal?"
"That's right," Yu Daohan nodded.
Hearing this, Li Naifeng subconsciously swallowed. "If they really haven't recovered, will they again..."
Yu Daohan shook his head. "I don't know. If anything happens to them, I will raze this village and burn down that peach grove."
Li Naifeng looked at Yu Daohan's fierce expression and was certain he wasn't joking.
