As the night falls and the stars twinkle, an elegant inn on earth - "Moonlit Drunk" - is dimly lit, reflecting a peaceful atmosphere.

At the highest point of the inn, in a private room called "Tian Zi Hao", Xu Wan's new disciple, Taoist Xuanqing, was sitting alone in meditation, with his eyes closed, as if isolated from the world.

And on the roof of the inn, another warm picture quietly unfolds.

Emperor Yun Che was dressed in an elegant moon-white robe, the lapels of which swayed gently in the wind. He had an upright figure and an extraordinary handsome face, like a banished immortal from the nine heavens who had fallen into the mortal world.

Beside him, Xu Wan was wearing a light gauze dress, the hem of which danced lightly in the wind, her hair was lightly tied, and a gentle light shone in her eyes.

The two sat side by side on the roof tiles, looking at the dimly lit streets in the distance, enjoying this rare quiet time.

“Wan’er, have you ever thought about how long this kind of life can last?” Yun Che’s voice was gentle and deep, as if it could penetrate the night and reach people’s hearts.

Xu Wan smiled slightly, leaned gently against Yun Che's shoulder, and said, "As long as you are by my side, no matter where or when, it will be the best time."

The two smiled at each other, their eyes full of affection and attachment to each other.

On this rooftop in the mortal world, they seemed to have forgotten their identities and constraints, and only wanted to be an ordinary pair of lovers and spend this wonderful time together.

As the night deepened, the moonlight poured down like water onto the roof, covering the lovers with a layer of silver gauze.

Yun Che gently filled two glasses of fine wine, handed one to Xu Wan, and said with a smile, "Wan'er, this 'Drunken Immortal Wine' drunk under the moon is a unique drink in the world. Try it."

Xu Wan took the wine glass and took a sip. She felt the wine was rich and mellow, melting in her mouth. She couldn't help but praise it, "It's really a good wine. It's soft and mellow on the palate, with a long aftertaste."

The two of them raised their glasses and drank together, enjoying this rare comfort and tranquility.

Yun Che's gaze fell gently on Xu Wan, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He knew that although he was an emperor, in this mortal world, the life he most longed for was to be with Xu Wan.

"Wan'er, do you know? I have never cherished a moment so much."

Yun Che said softly, his tone filled with emotion for the past and expectations for the future.

Xu Wan's eyes flickered with emotion when she heard this. She gently held Yun Che's hand and said, "Me too. As long as I can be with you, no matter where we are, I'll feel happy."

The nights on earth always carry a subtle tenderness.

The moonlight is like a thin thread, gently brushing over the ancient eaves and sprinkling on the roof called "Drunk Under the Moon".

On the roof, two figures snuggled together, one tall and one short, one master and one disciple, but they were also the two most inseparable hearts in the world.

"Wan'er, do you know why your master brought you to the mortal world?"

Yun Che's voice was so gentle that it seemed to melt the winter snow. He looked towards the dimly lit streets in the distance, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Xu Wan curled up the corners of her mouth into a faint smile, her eyes filled with undisguised joy.

"Of course I'm here to have fun, Master. This mortal world is so prosperous, with all its fine wines and delicious food, it's truly fascinating. You immortals don't even need to eat or sleep in the Nine Heavens, and I, your disciple, don't need to eat or sleep either. Practicing every day is truly exhausting."

Yun Che couldn't help but chuckle upon seeing this. He reached out and gently stroked the top of her head, his eyes full of doting.

"Wan'er, your master didn't bring you here just to eat, drink and have fun."

There was a subtle heaviness in his words, as if he was about to reveal a long-forgotten secret.

As the night deepens, the moonlight becomes brighter, but it also illuminates the various aspects of the world.

Yun Che took Xu Wan for a stroll through the streets and alleys. Every time they passed a place, a story, either happy or sad, would come into their eyes.

They saw an elderly couple supporting each other as they walked home. Although they walked with a stagger, the love in their eyes had not diminished in the slightest.

Yun Che whispered to Xu Wan, "This is a promise to stay together for a lifetime. Even if time passes, I will not change my original intention."

Afterwards, they witnessed another separation of life and death.

A young mother bids farewell to her son who is about to go on a long journey with tears at his bedside. Her tears are filled with both reluctance and expectation.

Yun Che's voice was deep and powerful: "Wan'er, this is the helplessness and greatness of the human world.

Every separation is for a better reunion and deeper growth."

In the dead of night, Yun Che brought Xu Wan to an ancient bridge.

The gurgling water under the bridge reflects the lights on both sides, making it look particularly peaceful and beautiful.

He stopped, stared into Xu Wan's eyes, and said seriously, "Wan'er, I brought you to the mortal world because I wanted you to see the regrets of unrequited love."

Xu Wan's eyes flickered with doubt when she heard this. She tightly grasped Yun Che's hand, as if hoping to find the answer from him.

“Master, I won’t experience those things. You will always protect me, won’t you?” Her tone was a little coquettish, but it also revealed her deep dependence on Yun Che.

Yun Che sighed and gently embraced Xu Wan. He knew that he couldn't protect her from harm forever.

But he also hopes that she can understand that human emotions are complex and changeable, and that unrequited love and deep feelings with shallow fate are all indispensable parts of life.

"Wan'er, although your teacher is willing to protect you, things in this world are unpredictable.

One day, you will find your own path and you will need to walk it alone.

At that time, I hope you can face everything bravely, including those emotions that may make you heartbroken."

The moonlight was like water, filling the entire ancient bridge. Yun Che and Xu Wan clung to each other, as if they were the only two left in the world.

At this moment, all words seem redundant, only each other's heartbeats and breathing are intertwined to form the most beautiful melody in the world.

"Master, no matter what the future holds, I will always remember your teachings."

Xu Wan's voice was filled with firmness and determination, "I will face everything bravely, including those unknown emotions and challenges.

But please believe that no matter where I go, the softest place in my heart will always belong to you."

Yun Che felt a surge of warmth in his heart upon hearing this. He hugged Xu Wan tightly, as if wanting to merge her into his own flesh and blood.

"Wan'er, your teacher will always be here to protect you. Even if one day you have to leave my protection, I will become a breeze in your heart and stay by your side."

Just like that, on the rooftop under the moon, the master and the disciple made an eternal vow.

Their love transcends worldly constraints and the test of time, becoming the purest and most moving emotion in the world.

All of this will be forever engraved into an immortal legend on the roof of a mortal house under the moon.

The moonlight is as bright as a thread, spreading over the ancient capital. An ancient building called "Moonlit Drunk Restaurant" looks particularly mysterious in the night.

The lights in the building were dim, and a soft light shone through the window lattice of the No. 1 room.

The young Taoist priest Xuanqing, dressed in a blue shirt and with a gaunt face, sat on the ground with his eyes closed, gently twirling the rosary in his hands and muttering ancient scriptures.

This time when he went down the mountain to gain experience, he encountered a thousand-year-old fox demon, and subdued it and turned it back to its original form.

In a corner of the room, a little fox curled up in a ball, its snow-white fur shining faintly in the moonlight.

Its eyes were full of fear and helplessness, as if it had just experienced something terrible.

Taoist Master Xuanqing felt the little fox trembling and slowly opened his eyes, his eyes revealing kindness and compassion.

He said softly, "Don't be afraid, little one. I am here, and no one dares to hurt you."

As he spoke, he waved his hand gently, and the little fox seemed to have received some kind of call, and walked tremblingly to his side.

Taoist Priest Xuanqing stretched out a hand and gently stroked the little fox's head. A warm force instantly flowed into the little fox's body, making it feel unprecedented peace.

"Our meeting is fate. I am willing to use my Taoist methods to help you cleanse your evil spirit and return to nature."

Taoist Xuanqing said in a low voice, then closed his eyes and recited more profound scriptures.

As the scriptures sounded, a faint fragrance filled the room, which was the unique breath of Taoist magic.

A golden halo gradually formed around Taoist Xuanqing's body, enveloping him and the little fox.

The little fox seemed to feel some wonderful changes in this circle of light.

Its body began to tremble slightly, followed by violent struggles, as if some power was surging within it.

But as time went on, the struggle gradually subsided, and was replaced by tranquility and peace.

The moonlight shines through the window lattice and falls on the little fox, making its fur become more flawless white and its eyes become clear and bright.

It looked up at Taoist Xuanqing, its eyes full of gratitude and admiration.

A night of purification finally ended, and the little fox's body had completely recovered its true nature as a natural spirit.

Taoist Xuanqing slowly stood up, looked at the little fox, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"You have cleansed yourself of the evil spirit and can return to the mountains and forests. Remember, all things in the world have spirits. You should be kind and never do evil again." Taoist Xuanqing said earnestly.

The little fox seemed to understand what Taoist Xuanqing said. It nodded gently, then turned and ran towards the door.

When it was about to leave the room, it suddenly stopped and looked back at Taoist Xuanqing, its eyes full of reluctance.

Taoist Xuanqing smiled slightly and waved his hand to signal the little fox to leave.

The little fox then turned around reluctantly and disappeared into the night.

The No. 1 room in Yuexiazui Restaurant returned to peace again.

Taoist Priest Xuanqing stood in front of the window, looking at the direction where the little fox left, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

"The rise and fall of fate are all predetermined. Perhaps, this is the real meaning of my coming down the mountain this time." Taoist Xuanqing whispered to himself.

He turned back to the center of the room and continued to meditate and chant with his eyes closed. However, the image of the little fox had already been deeply imprinted in his mind.
