"Speaking of the wedding between Yuntian Shuijing and Yeyou Mansion, it was truly magnificent!"

"Indeed, I even attended the ceremony. The marriage between the young masters of the two great sects was something to behold. The procession of carriages and red silk stretched for thousands of miles, and both sects were brightly lit throughout the night. It's said that the Twin Dragon Spirit Candles, which cost ten thousand gold pieces each, were lit all over the mountains and valleys for an entire month!"

"Good heavens, that's extravagant!"

"The four major sects in the current cultivation world—Yuntian Shuijing, Yeyou Mansion, Fengming Valley, and Lingxiao Palace—had three of their sects at the centre of this grand event. Fengming Valley couldn't remain 'uninvolved' either. Mu Zhaoyao (NT: Mu Rongsa courtesy name for those who-did not remember), the eldest young master of the Mu family, is a close friend of Chu Binghuan and Hua Che. He was the happiest among them, making noise about it three months in advance. On the day of the wedding, he was so lively that he almost stole the spotlight. He even made a lot of jokes while decorating Fengming Valley."

"Hahaha, I know, I know. He tried to prepare a surprise for Hua Che and the others, but accidentally set off the 'Dragon and Phoenix Prosperity' fireworks in the storeroom. The fireworks used by cultivators are no ordinary items; they can last seven days and nights in the sky. This mishap caused a huge commotion, reportedly burning down half of Fengming Valley and filling it with smoke. It angered Mu Qinian so much that he almost stood up from his wheelchair!"

"Fortunately, Zhuang Tian commented that it signified a booming and prosperous future, or else Mu Zhaoyao would have been in big trouble!"

"Pfft, I heard he was put under house arrest. Mu Zhaoyao spent his days whining and complaining. Eventually, Zhuang Tian sent an auspicious crane over, and Mu Zhaoyao used it to send messages and got Hua Qingkong to rescue him."

"Did they go to plead with Mu Qinian?"

"Plead? As if Hua Qingkong would obediently go and plead! Hahaha, of course not. He just took Mu Zhaoyao andthey  ran off together!"

"Pfft, that's totally his style."

"Mu Qinian was furious. He first went to Lingxiao Palace to demand them back, but who would have thought that the grand sect would be empty? Zhuang Tian, that crafty old man, had already slipped away to Yeyou Mansion! He left Wen Yuan, who knew nothing, behind. What could he possibly find out from him? Poor old sect master Mu!"

"I heard they've come to the mortal world."

"No way, really? I've always wanted to see them in person!"

"Hua Che is stunningly handsome; Chu Binghuan is elegantly cold and aloof; Mu Rongsa is righteous and bold; Lin Yan is warm-hearted and kind."

"What a beautiful scene—four graceful young masters!"

The business at Old Jiang's noodle shop was booming. Even past meal times, people were still eating, drinking, and chatting both upstairs and downstairs. Some came for the delicious noodles, while others travelled from afar just to experience a place run by immortals, hoping to catch a bit of that immortal aura.

And at this moment...

The exceptionally graceful and stunningly handsome Hua Che had just woken up. With messy bed hair, he was forcibly dragged up to wash by someone. The red marks hidden under his collar were trying hard to show their presence. He grumbled, "Let me sleep a bit longer. I didn't sleep at all last night..."

The frost-stained and aloof Chu Binghuan, driven by lust, found the sleepy and soft Hua Che irresistibly sweet and proceeded to kiss him passionately.

Mu Rongsa, the chivalrous and hearty, was in the backyard negotiating with a vegetable vendor, "A bundle of celery for a whole string of coins? Why don't you just rob me instead! Admit it, you've been overcharging Granny Jiang, haven't you? Do you know who protects this shop? Do you know who I am, do you know who my father is?"

Lin Yan, the warm-hearted and kind, looked at the vendor, who was drenched in sweat, with sympathy. Nodding vigorously like a pecking chicken, he said, "Sixth Senior Brother is right. Whatever Sixth Senior Brother says is right!"

Granny Jiang made four bowls of plain noodles, and the kids gathered around the table to eat.

Mu Rongsa was so hungry that his front was almost stuck to his back, he grabbed a bowl and started eating wildly.

Hua Che, on the other hand, was lying listlessly on the table, looking completely drained.

As for Chu Binghuan, he was in a completely different state—his spirits were high, with a spring-like smile on his face. His eyes full of tenderness and affection, he personally picked up a noodle and brought it to Hua Che's lips, saying softly, "Be good, take another bite, good boy."

Mu Rongsa: "..."

Lin Yan: "..."

Suddenly, the noodles didn't taste as fragrant in an instant !!!
