When they arrived at the northern border, only Guan Miu was still there.

"I asked Yan Luo to help me, and he finally sent someone to track me down."

A cloud of mist held up a bubble of changing colors. The colors inside were mixed and unclear, and there was nothing special about it.

“It’s right here.”

Guan Miao took out a long and thin candle wick and combined it with the burning candle in Ni Yangzhou's hand, and a brand new burning candle came into being.

Ni Yangzhou raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yan Congzhi, who had remained silent. "How could the magic weapon reappear so easily?"

Guan Miao was the first to shake his head and said, "Making a candle wick is easy, but lighting it is difficult."

Seeing the puzzled look from his apprentice, Yan Congzhi took the initiative to speak: "It consumes spiritual energy when it is lit, and it requires very good timing and location."

Guan Miao smiled. "Today, we have the best timing, location, and people. Entering this place, there's abundant spiritual energy, perfect for Junior Brother to hold. Then, as long as no one else sees you, you two can communicate with magic. Even if we can only communicate through candlelight, it's better than not being able to speak freely before."

Ni Yangzhou was shocked that candles could be used in this way, and asked, "Are you going too?"

Ni Yangzhou originally wanted to go in and find the Black and White Impermanence and come back quickly. If the two ghost messengers didn't come back, it would be fine if the Ju Lu Book could come back.

Yan Congzhi's face instantly lost its warmth when he heard this. He didn't expect that the other party didn't even think about taking him with him.

Which world didn’t they both venture into together?

Guan Miao hadn't thought of this at the moment. After all, he was the leader of the couple's fanbase, having been spoiled by the ancestor long before Liu Zikang. Aren't couples supposed to be together through thick and thin? How could his junior fellow apprentice and partner abandon his junior fellow apprentice?

Guan Miao was embarrassed at this moment and said, "Well, if... it's okay if I don't go."

"go."

Yan Congzhi took the lit candle and said in a resounding voice, "We two will do it together."

Ni Yangzhou wanted to persuade him again:

"I don't know what mission you'll be assigned this time, and you're made of paper. What if something unexpected happens..."

Yan Congzhi didn't say anything, just stared at Ni Yangzhou's face. After a while, he blurted out:

"What if you fail your mission?"

Ni Yangzhou was stunned. He had not considered the consequences. After all, he had successfully navigated these five worlds. Even if there were some imperfections, his third brother would make up for it for him.

No, that's not right.

Among these worlds, the one who helped him the most was the person in front of him.

Running around for him, paving the way for him, and devoting all their energy to his mission.

Ni Yangzhou was speechless for a moment, and said hesitantly:

"I know……"

Ni Yangzhou now understood not only the various ways Yan Congzhi had helped him, but also the heartfelt dedication Yan Congzhi had shown him. He wouldn't belittle himself, thinking he couldn't complete his mission without him. Some missions didn't require Yan Congzhi, but he had helped him navigate many otherwise troublesome situations.

Even at this moment, with only a body made of thin paper left and his soul remaining in the green jade starlight, he still wanted to follow Ni Yangzhou firmly to complete the mission, just to help Ni Yangzhou move forward better.

And Ni Yangzhou just wanted to make Yan Congzhi's situation better.

That being the case...

Ni Yangzhou changed his tone:

"I know you love me so much that you can't bear to be apart from me for a moment."

"In that case, let's go together!"

Hongying and Yuanjia, who had been watching from behind without saying a word, looked at each other and saw different expressions of shock in each other's eyes.

Hongying thought to herself that the master-disciple status was indeed not an obstacle. Look at these two, they can both come up in front of Master Guanmiao. It seems that the future of herself and Master Haoping is promising.

Yuan Jia was different. Although he had heard of the amazing deeds of Guan Jiao Zhenren, when such words came out of Ni Yangzhou's mouth, Yuan Jia even thought that he had possessed the other person's body. Isn't this kind of self-confidence usually only possessed by himself?

Yuan Jia didn't understand the sympathy in Hong Ying's eyes for the two people, so he turned around to look at his apprentice Cheng Wang. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, the little apprentice suddenly lowered his head, leaving him with a red forehead and a black top of his head.

The child is still young and cannot bear to hear such dirty words.

Yuan Jia turned his head to comfort himself and saw Ni Yangzhou grabbing Guanjiao Zhenren's hand.

Yuanjia thought to himself, he is indeed worthy of being my junior uncle-master, he is so brave that he turned the beautiful girl from Gaoling into such a selfless aunt-master.

Hey, aunt-master? Great-uncle-master? Calling Guan Xiaozhou "great-uncle-master"? That title is way too long!

Yuan Jia wasn't sure if the complicated name had gotten him confused. Ni Yangzhou, holding his lover's hand, felt a surge of confidence. He felt that true love could overcome any obstacle. He only needed to raise their clasped hands to announce their union to the world. Originally, they had just been trying to complete the mission, but with so many people watching them, hand in hand, pouring out their hearts, it felt like a small, outdoor riverside wedding attended by friends and family.

Witness (crossed out) Guan Miao felt at ease at this moment. What the Taoist Patriarch had foreseen was very true. Others didn't know much about his junior brother, but he had watched him grow up since he was a child.

He did not miss the proud expression on his junior brother's face when he was pulled up by the hand, as if he was chosen and said, "So you still want to take me with you."

"Okay, that's it."

Guan Miao patted their clasped hands and pointed at Paopao. After being a master for so long, he couldn't help but nag:

"Please be careful on this trip and do not expose yourself in front of others, so as not to incur Heavenly Punishment and interfere with the mission of the two venerable Black and White Impermanence."

"Junior brother understands."

"Huaiyu understands."

The two people holding hands looked at each other, and there was only each other's reflection in their eyes.

"Hey? I'll go too. I'll go too."

Yuan Jia waved: "I'll come to help, if there's any love line, I'll go quickly!"

Guan Mi, of course, knew how much Master Hao Ping had worried about his disciple who had become a spirit from the aphrodisiac grass, so he immediately consoled him and refused, "That's not necessary. I think Huaiyu and Junior Brother's looks are enough for a romantic relationship."

The silent Cheng Wang suddenly spoke up: "Master, you promised Master Haoping that you would not leave the mountain or enter the maze for thirty years..."

"Alright alright."

Yuan Jia paused and said, "I'll be here to guard you."

Cheng Wang nodded and said, "Master Uncle and Grand Master Uncle, you two can go without any worries."

……

Hongying said with a smile: "I have something else to do when I get back. Remember to treat me to the wedding wine."

Ni Yangzhou took Yan Congzhi's hand without any hesitation, and said generously: "No problem, no problem."

Yan Congzhi: ...

Preparing for the wedding ceremony? Then I need to find a body quickly.

Guan Mi urged:

"Go ahead, Junior Brother. Remember to light the candle and keep it with you when you get there. It will naturally change its appearance according to this world and keep your soul stable."

Ni Yangzhou patted the humanoid pendant on his chest. It was the empty Sumeru mustard seed. "Don't worry, Master. This is a double guarantee. If anything unexpected happens, I'll use this to bring him back."

The two turned around to say goodbye, looked at each other, and then jumped hand in hand into the next bubble, which changed colors like a kaleidoscope.
