The Dragon Casting Ceremony began.

Fujin changed into new clothes.

Under everyone's gaze, they cast the Dragon Offering into the water.

Although it was their first time presiding.

They had watched it many times before.

The steps were all familiar.

The villagers followed closely behind.

Casting some jade artifacts into the water.

Praying for favorable weather in the coming year.

Mu Yang watched, his heart aching.

Those were all genuine jade!

You people from Chasm are truly wealthy.

After the Dragon Casting Ceremony.

Fujin was considered done with their work.

They began to take Mu Yang and the others to tour the temple fair.

Fujin and Lingyuan walked ahead, hand in hand.

Mu Yang and Medicine Master followed behind.

Mu Yang hadn't expected the temple fair to be so abundant.

He had initially thought he had seen the food streets of Dragon Country.

What delicious food hadn't he seen?

But he still underestimated the villagers of Chasm's wild imagination.

Although the level of mechanization was a bit behind.

They were not stingy when it came to food.

Even Lingyuan, who was always complaining about humans.

Was holding food in both hands at this moment.

And today's temple fair was free of charge.

Take and eat as you please.

There was plenty.

Mu Yang also felt a craving.

But it wasn't because he particularly liked the food.

It was mainly to soak in the festive cheer.

Mu Yang ate heartily.

Medicine Master, standing beside him, smiled faintly.

"Life here isn't too bad, is it?"

Mu Yang swallowed a bite of a chicken leg covered in sauce.

"It's indeed quite good. It seems our Mountain King likes it here too."

"Then why don't you all move here as well?"

Medicine Master suggested.

Mu Yang glanced at Lingyuan.

"I don't mind either way. Once she can accept human society."

"And is willing to move in, then we'll talk. Someone has to keep her company."

Medicine Master nodded.

Then they glanced at a stall displaying Jade Pendants.

The temple fair had food and games.

And of course, some small trinkets.

Medicine Master pondered for a moment.

Then called out to Mu Yang's retreating back.

"Mu Yang, over here."

"And bring those two along too."

Mu Yang heard this.

He nodded and did as he was told.

He called Fujin and Lingyuan over.

The stall owner looked like an honest craftsman.

Seeing these four people with extraordinary auras approach his stall.

One of them was even the goddess presiding over the Dragon Casting Ceremony.

He was so flustered he couldn't speak.

"Uh... um, esteemed Goddess, and you few Immortals..."

Fujin told him not to be nervous.

"No need to be so formal, just call me Fujin."

"These are all my friends."

The owner's clenched hands relaxed slightly.

He usually just worked in his workshop.

He had never met any important figures before.

"Okay, okay, please take your time looking."

The four of them had been together for so long.

Even if Medicine Master didn't explain, they understood what Medicine Master meant.

In the end, each of them picked a Jade Pendant they were most satisfied with.

Usually, they took turns picking for each other.

Since today represented a new beginning, Medicine Master suggested they put the four pendants together.

Whichever one was drawn, that's the one they would take.

Medicine Master saw that Mu Yang had drawn the one she had chosen.

She used her immortal power to help him tie it to his waist.

"There, it matches you very well."

"It looks good."

"I always felt like something was missing there, and now it's perfect."

Mu Yang looked at the Jade Pendant on his waist.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Boss, you would never imagine I'd be wearing this for a thousand years.

Fujin suddenly suggested.

"Alright, we've strolled enough and bought our gifts."

"Isn't it time for a drink?"

Lingyuan asked, "Tea?"

Fujin smiled mysteriously, "That's right."

Mu Yang and Medicine Master exchanged a glance.

They nodded in tacit understanding.

Every time Fujin smiled like this, it meant trouble.

The group found a place to sit and have tea.

Fujin introduced, "The tea cakes here are especially delicious. One taste, and I guarantee you won't forget them."

"How good can something made by humans be?"

"You just ate so much, and you're still being stubborn?"

This tea stall owner was very familiar with Fujin.

He warmly welcomed Mu Yang and the others.

Just as Fujin had said, the tea cakes here had a unique flavor.

Lingyuan stopped talking obediently after just one bite.

Then, he started stuffing them into his mouth one after another.

Fujin revealed a proud expression as they looked at her.

Lingyuan originally wanted to say something defiant.

But unfortunately, this thing was indeed delicious.

"Alright, alright, I admit it, things made by humans are indeed delicious."

She spoke too quickly and choked.

Fujin patted her back to help.

Then handed over a cup of tea.

"Really, no need to eat so quickly. Here."

Lingyuan took a sip.

Her expression was a bit strange.

"The taste is different from usual tea."

"This is a new variety of tea, is it good?"

Mu Yang had already noticed Fujin's subtle expression.

This was indeed tea—

Flammable Oolong Tea!

So this was what they had planned.

No wonder they were smiling so mischievously just now.

They wanted Lingyuan to drink alcohol.

Poor Lingyuan, another day of being toyed with by Fujin.

Mu Yang didn't dare to stop Fujin.

Let these two have their way, one willing to be led, the other willing to lead.

What Mu Yang didn't know was.

He would later regret this decision.

Fujin poured wine for Lingyuan.

While feeding her tea cakes.

After this feeding spectacle continued for a while.

Lingyuan started to sway a bit.

Unable to sit steady.

It seemed she was drunk.

Fujin quickly stopped.

And told her the tea was finished.

And it was time to go home.

The drunken Lingyuan clung tightly to Fujin.

"No, I want to drink more!"

Fujin cast a pleading look at Mu Yang and Medicine Master.

The two indicated they couldn't help.

You brought this upon yourself, you can't escape the consequences.

Fujin's eyes darted around.

"Okay, okay, you can drink as much as you want, I'll go get it for you, alright?"

Only then did Lingyuan let go.

Unexpectedly, Fujin simply slipped away.

Mu Yang sensed something was wrong.

He got up to chase after them.

Lingyuan called out to him.

"Mu Yang, do I look good?"

Mu Yang was full of question marks.

Huh???

"I'm asking you, do I look good?"

Seeing Mu Yang didn't answer, Lingyuan raised her voice.

The people around them all looked over.

The Medicine Master was also gloating from the side.

Mu Yang thought, What is going on here?

He followed her words and said, "Beautiful."

He didn't expect Lingyuan to start making a big deal out of it.

"Then who looks better, the Medicine Master or me?"

"Pfft—"

The Medicine Master, who was watching the show from the side, never imagined it would involve him.

The surrounding people's discussions grew louder.

Mu Yang now felt like everyone present was talking about him.

This feeling was too uncomfortable.

It was like passing the village entrance on the way back home for the New Year.

Being pointed and gossiped about by the elders.

Lingyuan didn't hear Mu Yang's answer.

She stood up, "Who looks better, the Medicine Master or me?"

Then, she made a move as if to pounce and grab Mu Yang.

Mu Yang dodged with a flash.

He then patted the Medicine Master on the shoulder.

"I'm going to catch the culprit and clean up this mess. I'll leave this to you."

With that, he used his Lightness Skill to leave the scene.

"Hey—! Don't leave me alone!"

Lingyuan, unable to catch Mu Yang.

Was now holding a stool and asking questions.

"Quick, tell me, the Medicine Master and I... who looks better..."

The Medicine Master tried to pull her away, to give her some medicine to sober her up.

But he couldn't get close.

Using immortal power was risky, fearing she'd act erratically.

He could only stand there and wait.

The surrounding discussions reached his ears.

It was so awkward.

The Medicine Master gritted his teeth.

"Mu Yang, Fujin, if you two dare not come back, Hmph..."
