Venerable White: Don't worry, I'll play matchmaker for you!

Under the shroud of smoke, Zhou Li calmly looked at Doudou: "Account theft?"

"Yes, believe me! It's always been Fairy Ouyang chatting with you online. Just reading your conversations makes me cringe. How could I possibly chat with a grown man like you?" Doudou exclaimed loudly. For the sake of his chastity, he felt he had to reveal the truth!

"Hehehehe." The smoke covering Zhou Li's face grew thicker and thicker, and he let out a bitter laugh, "Doudou, there's no need to comfort me."

"Huh?" Doudou asked, puzzled.

Zhou Li exhaled two puffs of smoke from his nostrils again. "Actually, I've thought about it carefully, and what you said makes sense. How could a man like me, who spends all his time chasing after a Pekingese all over the world, possibly have any girl who likes me?"

"Zhou Li, you underestimate your charm! In fact, there's a ＠＃％×Fairy waiting for you! If you don't believe me, you can send her a text message and ask her!" Doudou shouted, "Look, my phone is broken now, and you've tied me up. Hurry up and send a text message to your 'Kissy,' and if she replies, wouldn't that prove I'm right?"

Zhou Li's hand holding the pipe stiffened, and a hint of anticipation seemed to appear in his eyes.

Then, he pulled out his phone and cautiously sent a message to his partner. "Are you there?"

Zhou Li had never felt so excited and worried before, even when sending such an ordinary message.

The text message has been sent!

Five minutes later...

In the chat software, Fairy Ouyang's account showed an 'online' status, but she never replied to any messages.

In the past, if she was online, she would definitely reply to messages within five minutes, even if it was just a smiley face.

"Hehe." Zhou Li chuckled dryly, then turned back to look at Doudou, puffing out two Smoke Dragons from his nostrils and mouth. Doudou was indeed teasing him!

Doudou: "..."

This is a trap for dogs!

"Right, call her! You have her phone number, right? Call her and ask her in person!" Doudou shouted.

Zhou Li didn't speak this time. He simply opened his contacts, pulled up the name 'Ouyang Yuan', and tapped to call.

Then, familiar piano music came from inside.

The piano music played again and again, but the phone remained unanswered!

"Hehe." Zhou Li took another deep drag of his cigarette and exhaled. This time, white smoke not only came out of his mouth and nostrils, but even his ears, instantly enveloping his entire face.

Doudou suddenly felt like crying.

This is a trap for the dog! It's a trap for the dog! It's absolutely a trap for the dog!

This is absolutely ridiculous! What on Yellow Mountain Big Fool is going on here?!

I don't want to date Zhou Li! Absolutely not! Someone please save me!

Just then, a figure swiftly swept towards Doudou, the little monk, and Zhou Li's group from afar.

"Huh? Doudou, you've been captured." The figure stopped, sword in hand, and smiled.

It was Venerable White who arrived.

Venerable White clearly recognized Zhou Li, so after stopping, he joked.

Doudou raised her head and glanced at Venerable White —sure enough, the reason she and the little monk had been so unlucky all the way was because Venerable White was chasing after them.

But it doesn't matter who comes, as long as they can save it, that's enough.

"Senior White!" Doudou cried out, "Help me!"

The Venerable White laughed and said, "Save you? I'm here to take you back."

"It's fine if you take me back, I'll do whatever you want with me!" Doudou shouted.

Venerable White raised an eyebrow. "What happened?"

Zhou Li hissed out large plumes of smoke from his nostrils and mouth; he opened his mouth but couldn't utter a single word.

"Doudou? What trouble have you gotten into this time?" Venerable White asked, looking at Doudou.

Doudou opened her mouth as well—but didn't know where to begin.

"Senior, why don't I explain?" At this moment, the Demon Catchers girl who had been standing next to Zhou Li raised her hand and said.

Then, she happily began to tell Venerable White about the Qidian, the process, and the outcome of the matter.

"Doudou, write me a thousand-word apology letter when you get home tonight. I will personally deliver it to Fellow Daoist Zhou Li," Venerable White said calmly.

Doudou grunted—"Let it write a thousand words with its paws? Are you kidding me? How can a dog write with its paws?"

It was about to resist, but upon seeing the serene expression on Venerable White's face, it somehow lost the will to fight.

"Also... young friend Zhou Li, let me see your phone," Venerable White said, extending his hand.

Zhou Li quickly extinguished his pipe and then carefully handed his phone to Venerable White.

Throughout the entire process, he dared not look directly at Venerable White —his leader, True Lord Yellow Mountain, had set an example by demonstrating Venerable White's charisma to everyone through his actions.

Venerable White opened Zhou Li's handrail, looked at him, and then asked, "Which sect does your partner belong to?"

"He is Ouyang Yuan, a disciple of the White Cloud Academy and the Lady Jade Zither." Zhou Li stiffly uttered the name.

"White Cloud Academy, huh? I remember that. Wait a moment." Venerable White opened his phone and searched through his contacts.

A moment later, he made a phone call—ever since the day he decided to hold the 'Hand Tractor Race', Venerable White had started contacting all of his old Old Daoist friends one by one.

One of my friends happens to be from the White Cloud Academy.

After the call connected, Venerable White asked, "Hello, is this True Lord Eternal Fire Huo?"

"Oh, it's Senior White. Is there something you need?" A gentle and polite voice came from the other end of the line.

"True Lord Eternal Fire, is there a female cultivator named Lady Jade Zither, Ouyang Yuan, in your White Cloud Academy?"

"Oh, you mean Teacher Ouyang Yuan? Is there something you need from her?" asked True Lord Eternal Fire.

Venerable White asked, "I'd like to ask, what is Fellow Ouyang Yuan doing right now?"

Although True Lord Eternal Fire was curious as to Senior White was asking Ouyang Yuan about it, he still replied, "Teacher Ouyang Yuan is currently teaching her disciples the zither, so it's not convenient for us to talk right now. If Senior Bai needs to speak with her, I will inform her on your behalf."

"No need, it's alright. That's settled then, bye!" Venerable White said crisply.

"Okay." Although True Lord Eternal Fire was somewhat puzzled, he still answered calmly and patiently. This was the kind of character that truly cultivated practitioners of the Confucian Sect had—unperturbed even if the sky were to fall. But sometimes, their personalities could be quite frustrating!

After hanging up the phone, Venerable White said to Zhou Li, "Your girlfriend is currently teaching a student the zither... If you trust me, try contacting her again in a few hours."

Zhou Li nodded stiffly, a bitter smile still on his face—he was still worried. What if it was Doudou who had been whispering sweet nothings to him, and that ＠＃％×Fairy Ouyang Yuan was completely unaware of the matter? What could he do even if he contacted her?

Venerable White glanced at Zhou Li and, seeing his miserable expression, knew roughly what he was thinking and worried about.

"How about this, I'll give you a guarantee. Even if there are problems in your relationship with that female cultivator Ouyang Yuan, how about I act as your matchmaker again after some time? I'm very experienced in matchmaking." Venerable White smiled.

After all, since emerging from seclusion, True Lord Yellow Mountain has helped Venerable White and Song Shuhang a great deal. Therefore, acting as a matchmaker for Zhou Li is just a small favor.

Moreover, Venerable White is indeed very experienced in matchmaking. Although... when he used to act as a go-between, some unexpected things often happened. For example, both parties in the matchmaking process would simultaneously fall in love with someone else, despite Venerable White's efforts...

With Venerable White's assurance, Zhou Li's complexion immediately improved significantly.

After resolving the matter, Venerable White turned to Doudou and the little monk, who were tied up in a ball, and said, "Well then, Doudou, Guoguo, we're going home now."

Then, he took out two disposable flying swords from his pocket, made a Sword Formula, and the two Disposable Flying Sword came to a steady stop in the void.

Then, Venerable White reached out and grabbed Doudou and the little monk, who were pulled into his arms out of thin air, and the 'Heaven-Hiding Hook' chains on their bodies automatically unlocked.

"You two choose a flying sword and stand on it, I'll take you home," Venerable White said with a gentle smile.

The oblivious little monk, Guoguo, smiled adorably and then climbed onto one of the flying swords!

Doudou immediately spotted the Disposable Flying Sword that Venerable White had taken out—it recognized it immediately. Wasn't this the Disposable Flying Sword Venerable White used to send things on 'space tourism'?

Venerable White, what are you doing? Are you going to throw it directly into space?

"Senior White, I can fly back by myself, don't worry, I won't run away this time!" Doudou said quickly.

"Shh, don't talk too much." Venerable White raised his index finger.

Then, he reached out and grabbed Doudou, tossing her onto another flying sword. "Hold on tight."

Before Doudou could protest, Venerable White made a Sword Formula: "Go You!"

Two sharp sounds, "Whoosh, whoosh!"

The two jets flew forward in one go, one after the other. Their speed was incredible.

In the blink of an eye, all that could be seen were two small black dots, one in front of the other.

"Ahhhhhhh..." This is the little monk's version of screaming, crisp and sweet.

"Woof woof woof woof..." This was Doudou's version of screaming. Normally, this speed was still within Doudou's tolerance. But Doudou felt like she was about to be sent into space in one breath... so she couldn't help but scream.

At least, could you let me bring an oxygen tank?

As for jumping off the flying sword? Don't be ridiculous. When riding the Venerable White's Disposable Flying Sword, there is no option to get off halfway—refer to the great Snake Demon who offended the Venerable White and was sent into space.

"Well then, goodbye, young Daoist Zhou Li. I'll contact you in a few days." Venerable White waved to Zhou Li, then mounted his 'Meteor Sword,' transforming into a beam of sword light and instantly catching up with Doudou and the little monk.

Zhou Li was dumbfounded.

The Demon Catchers girl next to him blinked—she felt that this senior was so cool!
