Tao Qian left the mountain, and Ascending Immortal Island was initially no less lively.
The Crystal Demon Clan was quite favored, and with the Nursing Woman Bird Clan also gradually treating the Ascending Immortal Arena as their second gathering spot outside their nest, there were often some immortals and fairies visiting.
Of course, the most essential aspect was the [Immortal Peach Forest] on the island.
Longevity Immortal Peach had now become the most famous and popular rare immortal fruit within Penglai Sea.
However, after all, everyone was a member of the Cultivation World and needed to maintain appearances. Many seniors and disciples, after requesting a visit once or twice, would not come again, and Ascending Immortal Island gradually became somewhat deserted.
This quietness, in turn, attracted a neighbor.
Due to her very compatible temperament with Tao Qian, enjoying quietude and loving peaches, she quietly moved her Red Sleeve Immortal Island next to Ascending Immortal Island.
In the vast Penglai Sea, who didn't know the temperament of Fairy Pan Si, to avoid disturbing, she wouldn't come here without reason.
But today was quite different.
Although no one came to greet him, Master Tao was in a very good mood, came by the Treasure Boat, and before reaching the island, from a distance, he deactivated the Forbidden Technique.
And shouted towards the island at Zhong Doudou, Longevity Peach Immortal, and Jiushou Dragon Demon,
"Come and greet me quickly."
With his shout, not only Ascending Immortal Island was opened up.
One could see the rosy light surging chaotically as two extraordinarily scenic immortal islands appeared simultaneously.
On Ascending Immortal Island, first seen at the Spiritual Resonance Cave, a large number of sparkling Crystal Demon Girls jumped out, seeing their master from afar, immediately their cheerful chirping filled the air, especially Zhong Doudou, this silly charming girl, who after a bit of effort, actually jumped straight towards him.
Her exquisite crystal stone body transformed into a brilliant aurora, diving towards Tao Qian's arms while shouting, "Master, master, you're finally back, Dou Dou missed you so much."
Tao Qian barely had enough time to catch this silly charming girl, before many more Crystal Demon Girls jumped towards him.
He couldn't catch all of them when from within the forest on the island, flurries of wing flapping were heard, followed by familiar calls of the Nursing Woman Bird Clan. These passionate Bird Demons with bared chests flew out, except for a few leading ones flying towards him, the majority showed surprised expressions and then flew in all directions.
The situation didn't need mention; the gossipy Bird Demons began their work.
Soon after, enchanting fairy lights flickered, one after another Peach Immortal appeared under the leadership of Tao Changshou, also coming forward to greet.
Then, from the sea outside the great marsh on the island, many from the Dragon Clan and numerous Merfolk appeared, led by Jiushou and Sha Nu'er to greet them.
Lastly, one could also see that, within Fire Cave Mansion, eight hundred Fire Spirits also suddenly emerged from the Forbidden Technique, revealing fireball heads, exuberantly shouting, "Master has returned to the island, master has returned to the island."
These lively scenes, Tao Qian had anticipated, and he met them with a smile on his face.
But soon, he saw on the other side of his daoist field, accompanied by flashes of silver light, a familiar island appeared.
This island, covered in silver threads, looked like a giant cocoon.
At the sole exit of the Daoist Field cave, stood an ethereal and elegantly mild immortal, looking like a lady secluded in her boudoir.
She had apparently heard Tao Qian's shout and thus came out to meet him, her face also revealing a gentle smile.
However, after she stepped out of the cave, she quickly saw the lively scene on Ascending Immortal Island.
In an instant, she felt uncomfortable.
But then she thought, if she were to retreat now, would it not cause Tao Qian to misunderstand and think that she, as his aunt, was unwelcoming of his return home.
Upon further reflection, "I moved my daoist field here without even asking for this disciple's nephew's permission. Could it be that he might not welcome such an action?"
These thoughts crossed her mind, and Pan Si Fairy's snow-white face suddenly blushed.
Luckily, at that moment, Tao Qian also reacted promptly.
Suddenly he recalled that his master and he had once mentioned Aunt Pan Si loved Longevity Immortal Peach and had a very favorable impression of him, his disciple nephew, hence she shifted her daoist field several hundred miles to make them neighbors.
Seeing the reaction of Aunt Pan Si, Tao Qian instantly guessed her current thoughts.
Quickly maneuvering his boat towards Aunt Pan Si, he showed an appropriately affectionate smile, bowed and said,
"Aunt, it's been a long time!"
"My master mentioned earlier that Aunt moved here next to me as a neighbor, and this disciple was very delighted upon hearing it."
"Seeing it is indeed so today, and even having Aunt come out to greet me, makes this disciple even happier."
Tao Qian's warm words and the just right distance relieved Pan Si Fairy immediately.
Hesitating a bit, she then said,
"Welcome back... it's good you are back. When you have free time, feel free to visit my cave mansion, after all, we are neighbors."
Clearly, Aunt Pan Si was in a good mood today, unusually speaking a lengthy sentence and even issuing an invitation.
Normally, their exchange would have ended here.
However, Tao Qian suddenly recalled Aunt Pan Si's knowledge of many secrets and remembering the challenge he faced, he couldn't help but say,
"It so happens Aunt is here, and this disciple has a matter to consult."
"This disciple has found a Daoist couple, Fairy Yunrong of the Jade Ring Mountain lineage. Our marital bond is fated, and also approved by both master and Grandma Taizhen, Mountain Master of Jade Ring."
"Before coming home, Grandma Taizhen asked me to prepare the wedding gifts, which is only proper since Fairy Yunrong is carrying this disciple's bloodline."
"But Aunt knows, this disciple's parents have both passed, and even master has reincarnated for further cultivation. So, I don't know what are the rules in the cultivation realm regarding this or how should I prepare?"
