Upon seeing these flat peaches, a hint of astonishment couldn't help but flash across Sun Wukong's eyes.
"These nine are the mother trees of the peach trees; all other peach trees have been birthed from them!"
"These peach trees bloom once every nine thousand years, and bear fruit every nine thousand years. If a mortal were to eat one, they would share the same longevity as the heavens."
Taibai Jinxing explained with a smile.
"Oh, is it really that magical?"
Wukong asked, somewhat shocked.
"Of course, why would I, Taibai Jinxing, deceive the Great King?"
Taibai Jinxing spoke as though the answer was self-evident.
"Did His Majesty really say that if I, Old Sun, guard these peaches for ten thousand years, I can receive one? Why not give me one of these peaches in advance, so that Old Sun can have a taste first?"
