With those words, the grave beneath the pear tree split open with a crack, and Daoist Zhai’s corpse flew out from within.
Although he had been dead for a very long time, because he had been nourished by the Lord of the Pear Blossoms, his body had not decayed; instead, it looked lifelike.
But even so, Xue An did not directly throw Daoist Zhai’s soul into it.
Because he knew that although this body hadn’t rotted, its vitality had been cut off for so long that its blood and qi were already utterly exhausted.
If he forcibly merged soul and body, even if he brought him back to life, it was destined not to last long.
But that was no problem for Xue An. He merely flicked his finger, and a drop of fresh blood flew from his fingertip, merging into Daoist Zhai’s corpse.
In an instant, the once-dried-up blood and qi surged back to life, and all injuries within his body were restored to their original state.
Only after finishing all this did Xue An use his Divine Sense to guide Daoist Zhai’s soul into this body.
Hoo!
Centered on Daoist Zhai’s body, a ring-shaped airflow suddenly appeared, blowing down countless pear blossoms.
Next, Daoist Zhai slowly opened his eyes, full of astonishment.
"I’m revived just like that?"
Xue An nodded with a smile. "What? Very surprised?"
Daoist Zhai clenched his fists, then let out a long, emotional sigh.
"It’s been so long I’d almost forgotten what it feels like to have a body."
Just then, the Lord of the Pear Blossoms and many flower spirits appeared one after another and circled around Daoist Zhai, cheering.
"Daoist Master, you finally woke up!"
"Yeah, Daoist Master, how does it feel to be alive again?"
Looking at these mischievous little flower spirits, Daoist Zhai couldn’t help but show a doting expression, then gently rubbed their little heads with his fingertip.
"Yes, I’ve finally woken up, and I have you all to thank for it!"
Even Daoist Zhai himself had never expected that the ten-thousand-mu pear orchard he’d planted back then, just to stave off loneliness for a while, would later become the key to saving his own life.
If not for the help of these flower spirits, his corpse might long ago have rotted away to bare bones.
At this thought, Daoist Zhai couldn’t help feeling even more moved.
Xue An watched from the side with a faint smile. Only after Daoist Zhai had finished speaking did he say in a low voice,
"These flower spirits truly paid a great deal for you, so I’ve decided to give them a surprise as well."
As he spoke, Xue An lightly flicked his finger.
The ground beneath their feet suddenly rumbled, and then surging Spiritual Energy was poured into this ten-thousand-mu pear orchard as if it cost nothing.
In a flash, all the pear trees rapidly grew under the nourishment of the Spiritual Energy, and at the same time, the once-illusory bodies of the little flower spirits became more solid and condensed.
At last—
When this great transformation was complete and they looked again at the ten-thousand-mu pear orchard, it had already changed beyond recognition.
All the pear trees had grown into towering giants, radiating rich vitality.
As for the little flower spirits, they had gained immeasurable benefits from this.
Daoist Zhai looked at Xue An and said sincerely, "Thank you!"
Xue An waved his hand. "Thank me for what? It was just a small effort."
As he was speaking, Xue An suddenly sensed something, raised his head to glance at the sky, then smiled faintly and said,
"Haven’t you always wanted to see Guankou Erlang and the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady? They’re here now."
Daoist Zhai’s whole body trembled. "Really?"
"Yeah! Come on, I’ll take you to meet them!"
A short while later, in Beijiang.
