Everyone present was dumbfounded.
Including the old man who had been shouting that he wasn't crazy.
His eyes were filled with astonishment.
He then burst into a mad laugh, "See? See? I told you he was the chosen one, do you believe me now?"
The crowd fell silent.
Although this old man had previously claimed Chen Nan was the chosen one, they had never taken his words to heart.
But now, it seemed.
What he said had some truth to it.
If he wasn't truly the chosen one.
How could a Peaches of Immortality have fallen into his hands as soon as he arrived?
This fortune was clearly not something an ordinary person could possess.
However.
In their opinion.
Chen Nan, at best, had great fortune.
But he couldn't be called the chosen one.
"Little friend Chen Nan, your fortune is truly extraordinary!" Xia Yuan's eyes were filled with a smile, "Since your fortune has arrived, then enjoy it!"
"If nothing unexpected happens, after consuming this Peaches of Immortality, you will definitely break through your limitations."
"Nonsense!" A middle-aged man said, "The fruits from this Peaches of Immortality tree are all infused with terrifying divine power. Little friend Chen Nan has already stepped into the Upper Heavenly God realm, and stepping into the God General realm is a sure thing."
"Indeed, I have a premonition that this Peaches of Immortality tree might have originated from the Heavenly Court." Mu Yang's expression was solemn, "If nothing unexpected happens, it might be a product of the Queen Mother's Peaches Garden."
Chen Nan sat cross-legged and began to bite into the Peaches of Immortality, which was the size of an adult's palm.
With a gentle bite.
A refreshing peach fragrance instantly filled his mouth, stimulating his taste buds.
Sweet juice overflowed in his mouth, making him want to swallow his own tongue.
To be honest.
This was the most delicious fruit Chen Nan had ever eaten in his life.
Setting aside the divine power it contained.
Just the taste alone was unforgettable.
"Does this Peaches of Immortality taste good?" Xia Yuan's throat bobbed as he looked at Chen Nan with burning eyes.
Everyone else also looked envious.
Although they had all consumed Peaches of Immortality before.
Each of them had only consumed one.
The taste of the Peaches of Immortality was still fresh in their memory.
Chen Nan said as he ate, "To be honest, it tastes very good, but... I prefer crunchy peaches."
"Yes, yes, I also prefer crunchy peaches," Xia Yuan grinned, "Only old toothless people like soft peaches; crunchy ones are more satisfying to eat."
"Nonsense, those who eat crunchy peaches are freaks. Crunchy peaches are the true orthodox way."
"That's right, peaches should be eaten soft."
"Eating hard ones is the orthodox way."
Several people began to argue.
Their faces turned red with arguments.
Chen Nan looked astonished.
It's just a matter of eating soft or crunchy peaches.
Is it worth arguing about?
Uh...
Thinking about the debate between savory and sweet zongzi on Earth.
And the debate between savory and sweet tofu pudding.
It seemed he could understand why they were arguing.
And while they were arguing.
Another gentle breeze blew from the distance.
The cool breeze was refreshing.
It instantly brought an eerie silence to the tense atmosphere.
Everyone involuntarily raised their heads to look at the Peaches of Immortality on the tree.
Excitement and anticipation filled their eyes.
They had lived here for decades, even a century, and had discovered a pattern.
Once a Peaches of Immortality fell.
It would be accompanied by a gentle breeze.
They just didn't know.
Who would receive the falling fruit this time.
As everyone held their breath.
A peach, white and pink, swayed gently on the branch. It finally detached from the branch and slowly floated down from the air.
It landed in Chen Nan's hand, who had just finished eating the first Peaches of Immortality.
???
???
???
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What are you doing?
Is this guy just a little handsome?
Why did you drop two Peaches of Immortality as soon as he arrived?
Have you considered our feelings by favoring him so much?
Is this fair?
This is pure, unadulterated nonsense!
Chen Nan looked a little embarrassed.
Although he was the beneficiary.
He could also feel that the Peaches of Immortality tree was favoring him.
However.
This was his fortune.
Thinking this.
He put away the pit of the peach he had eaten, then bit into the Peaches of Immortality in his hand.
Crack!
The crisp texture made his eyes light up.
Although the sweetness of the crunchy peach was far less than that of the soft peach.
The divine power it contained was almost the same.
The key was that.
Chen Nan liked hard ones.
"What's going on? Judging people by their preferences?" The red-haired middle-aged man's composure crumbled. He looked at the sky-obscuring Peaches of Immortality tree before him with tears in his eyes, "Just because he said he likes hard ones, you gave him a crunchy peach? Why are you so obedient?"
Mu Yang: "This feels a bit heartbreaking!"
"I feel like it's somewhat lacking in conscience!"
Everyone looked at Chen Nan with a hint of resentment.
Envious of his opportunity.
After all.
Everyone could get a Peaches of Immortality.
But why could he get two?
"I told you, he is the chosen one."
"He bears the heavy responsibility of saving the three realms."
"And this Peaches of Immortality tree has spirituality, and its fruits are prepared for Father Chen." The mad fisherman Lu Lu revealed a wise look, and even his address to Chen Nan changed to Father Chen.
This title also drew scornful glances from others.
You are a tribal leader.
How can you curry favor just because you see Chen Nan's extraordinary fortune?
If you're going to curry favor, do it.
Isn't calling him Father Chen embarrassing?
Just as Chen Nan was savoring the crunchy peach with great relish.
A powerful divine force erupted within him.
One Peaches of Immortality possessed ten thousand years of cultivation, which was enough for him to step into the Lower God General realm.
Not to mention.
He was currently gnawing on the second crunchy peach.
Stepping into the Lower God General realm was also within expectations.
It's just that...
The weight of these two Peaches of Immortality was a bit much.
Infused with terrifying divine power, even Chen Nan was stuffed to his limits.
"Father Chen, can you give me the peaches you can't finish?" The mad fisherman Lu Lu asked with a smile.
"This guy keeps saying he's not crazy, but if he's not crazy, how can he say such brainless things?" Xia Yuan shook his head helplessly.
Xuan Ming sighed, "Indeed, this Peaches of Immortality tree is spiritual. It recognizes that the fortune of others belongs to a certain person, and even if it is obtained by someone else, they cannot get that fortune."
The Peaches of Immortality were the greatest fortune in Misty Valley.
In earlier years, there had been disputes over them.
They had fought fiercely, snatching away the fortune that belonged to others.
But...
After consuming the Peaches of Immortality, not only did they not gain fortune, but their realm even regressed.
After that.
No one dared to covet another's fortune again.
If Lu Lu wasn't crazy.
Why would he say such a thing?
Of course.
Chen Nan, unaware of the inside story, thinking he couldn't eat the remaining half of the Peaches of Immortality, casually tossed the half peach to Lu Lu.
"You are an elder, and I am just a junior. Please don't call me Father Chen, it sounds awkward!" Chen Nan said with a wry smile.
"Okay, Father Chen." Lu Lu accepted the half peach like a treasure, and then began to eat it with relish.
Just as he finished the half peach.
A terrifying aura erupted from within him.
Under the stunned gazes of everyone, he stepped into the Middle God King realm.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Could fortune be transferred?
Otherwise, how could Lu Lu's breakthrough be explained?
Thinking this.
Everyone looked at Chen Nan nervously.
Xuan Ming even asked nervously, "Is it still too late to call you Father Chen now?"
