Senior, ants are so cute, please don't hurt them.

When he saw Venerable White's slender fingers crush the ant, the Copper Trigram Immortal Master felt a strange sadness welling up in his heart—as if that ant was him.

"Good morning, Venerable White." Copper Trigram Immortal Master knew his voice must sound very mechanical.

Venerable White drew a circle on the ground, trapping the thirty ants inside. Then, he looked up at Copper Trigram Immortal Master and continued, "By the way, Fellow Daoist Copper Trigram Divination, could you tell me whether the people from the 'Thirty-Three Beast God Sect' will come today?"

"No problem, I'll cast the divination now!" The Copper Trigram Immortal Master first reduced the flames under the barbecue grill, then took out the tortoise shell, shook it vigorously, and tossed out three copper coins.

The three copper coins rolled on the ground for a while, eventually arranging themselves in a triangular pattern. The Copper Trigram Immortal Master looked at the triangular pattern of copper coins, then began to calculate with his fingers.

Song Shuhang didn't understand divination and didn't know what the hexagram meant.

A moment later, the immortal master laughed and said, "Senior White, rest assured, the people from the Thirty-Three Beast God Sect will definitely arrive today. You can simply wipe them all out in one fell swoop!"

"Oh." Venerable White nodded silently—meaning that the people from the Thirty-Three Beast God Sect wouldn't be coming today either.

Seriously, these guys... they're so slow at getting things done. They're taking forever to come and rescue someone.

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master smiled sweetly and said, "Then, senior, shall I continue barbecuing?"

"Yes, keep it up." Venerable White nodded.

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master secretly breathed a sigh of relief—it seemed he had survived this ordeal!

So the immortal master increased the heat again and started grilling.

At this moment, Venerable White spoke up again and asked, "By the way, Fellow Copper Trigram Divination, you need to collect 'Fortune,' right? The altar you built yesterday seems to be an altar used by the Ancient Era 'Witch Tribe' to worship the heavens and enhance their clan's Fortune, right?"

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master smiled sheepishly and nodded—he did indeed need strong Fortune for his beloved disciple, the Iron Trigram Diviner.

Venerable White: "But you are not Ancient Shamans... it's useless for you to build this altar."

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master sighed; he was just trying anything, even if it seemed hopeless.

Venerable White smiled slightly, "Actually, if you need Fortune, I have something good here that you might find useful."

Copper Trigram Immortal Master's eyes widened immediately. "Senior White, may I ask what this is?"

Song Shuhang also curiously leaned closer, wanting to see what kind of magical treasure could increase 'Fortune'?

"Watch closely." Venerable White extended his right hand, and gently tapped his right palm with the fingers of his left hand.

Then, a small, strange, tail-like thing appeared in the Venerable White's palm.

"This is a treasure I accidentally unearthed when I was digging for my meditation chamber underground during my last seclusion. Although only this small part remains, if we're talking about 'Fortune,' this treasure is the first one that comes to mind," Venerable White said calmly.

Song Shuhang looked curiously at the object in Senior White's palm and asked, "What is this? It looks like a fish tail?"

"It's not a fish tail, it's Dragon Tail." The Copper Trigram Immortal Master exclaimed, his eyes wide. "And it's not an ordinary dragon's tail... It's the Dragon Tail left behind after a Dragon Vein materialized?"

"That's right. Although it's not a 'National Fortune Dragon Vein,' it's just a Lesser Dragon Vein that has been transformed. But if you want to bring people Fortune, this thing is pretty good, isn't it?" Venerable White smiled.

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master nodded vigorously, his eyes filled with an expression of 'I want it'—an expression that seemed to say, 'I want this, come and kill me, kill me as much as you want!'

Venerable White said, "The tail of this Lesser Dragon Vein is of no use to me. Therefore, I can lend you some time."

His own Fortune was already heaven-defying, so he didn't care at all about the effects brought by the Lesser Dragon Vein's tail.

"Senior White, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!" Copper Trigram Immortal Master patted his chest and said.

"Well, don't worry, I won't ask you to do anything difficult." Venerable White maintained his charming smile, "I recently promised a young Daoist named Zhou Li, a subordinate of True Lord Yellow Mountain, that I would act as matchmaker for a teacher named Ouyang Yuan at the White Cloud Academy of the Confucian Sect."

"Act as matchmaker?" Copper Trigram Immortal Master patted his chest and said, "Senior White, do you want me to act as matchmaker for them? No problem, we fortune tellers are naturally connected to the 'matchmaker' profession. Leave it to me, I will definitely make sure this match is handled perfectly."

"Hmm, I'm relieved to hear that." Venerable White nodded silently. "Then let me briefly tell you about the recent situation of Zhou Li and Teacher Ouyang Yuan."

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master struck a pose of 'listening attentively'.

"Young friend Zhou Li recently had a small misunderstanding with Teacher Ouyang Yuan because of Doudou," said Venerable White. As he spoke, he glanced at Doudou and Little Guoguo's tent. Then he recounted to Copper Trigram Immortal Master the incident of Dou Doudou causing trouble for Zhou Li.

The Pekingese Doudou and the little monk immediately shrank back.

Doudou felt a chill run down her spine when she recalled the scene— Zhou Li had completely broken down and actually wanted to continue dating her.

"Then, young friend Zhou Li is rather naive when it comes to relationships... He actually caused trouble for Doudou, and told Teacher Ouyang Yuan everything about his suspicion that Teacher Ouyang Yuan was Doudou's alter ego." Venerable White continued, "Then, Teacher Ouyang Yuan seemed a little sullen. You know the character of people from the White Cloud Academy; they value unwavering loyalty in love, and both parties in a relationship must unconditionally trust each other. Teacher Ouyang Yuan might feel that young friend Zhou Li didn't trust her enough in the 'Doudou Incident'? Or perhaps young friend Zhou Li said something wrong in his description? Anyway, Teacher Ouyang Yuan is sulking. She hasn't spoken to young friend Zhou Li for quite some time now."

As he spoke, Venerable White took out his phone and showed Copper Trigram Immortal Master a picture sent by True Lord Yellow Mountain —in the photo, Zhou Li was locked in his room, smoking. His entire face was shrouded in smoke, and he looked particularly melancholy.

As for why True Lord Yellow Mountain could still photograph Zhou Li even though he was locked in the room, that's the wonder of magic.

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master: "..."

He also knew Zhou Li, a junior who was very capable and knew how to adapt to different situations. He hadn't expected Zhou Li's emotional intelligence to be a little low.

"Not only that, but young Daoist Zhou Li is accompanied by a Demon Catchers girl who captured Doudou last time." Venerable White swiped his phone and pulled up a photo of the pretty Demon Catchers girl. It was also sent by True Lord Yellow Mountain.

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master asked, "Is there something wrong with this Demon Catchers girl?"

"Hmm, she seemed to sympathize with Zhou Li... She said that if Zhou Li were abandoned by Teacher Ouyang Yuan, he would go with her to catch demons and live a life of luxury. But unfortunately, at that time, young Zhou Li was on the phone with Teacher Ouyang Yuan... which seems to have exacerbated the misunderstanding between the two sides?" Venerable White replied.

All of this information was relayed by True Lord Yellow Mountain to Venerable White.

In short, Zhou Li's low emotional intelligence angered Teacher Ouyang Yuan; then, the Demon Catchers girl's mistimed Shanxin only added fuel to the fire.

Venerable White put away his phone and asked, "That's roughly how things are. Fellow Daoist Copper Trigram, can you handle Fellow Daoist Zhou Li's matter properly?"

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master patted his chest and said, "No problem, leave it to me! It's just a small misunderstanding, it'll be fine once it's cleared up. Besides, both parties are interested, it won't be hard to resolve."

Indeed... getting things settled between Zhou Li and Ouyang Yuan isn't difficult, since they have genuine feelings for each other. All that's needed is a middleman to connect them and resolve the issue.

Senior White is doing a favor for Copper Trigram Immortal Master.

Venerable White smiled and nodded, saying, "This concerns the lifelong happiness of two fellow Daoists, so we cannot be careless. Time is of the essence, Fellow Daoist Copper Trigram, please rise and go see Fellow Daoist Zhou Li now."

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master clasped his hands in greeting. "This junior will go to the cave of True Lord Yellow Mountain immediately!"

After saying that, he pulled up his cart and prepared to summon his flying sword and take off into the air.

"How about I see you off, fellow Daoist?" Venerable White said with a bright smile.

Copper Trigram Immortal Master waved his hand. "No need to trouble you, senior. I can go there myself."

"No, no... let me see you off." Venerable White reached into his sleeve and pulled out a wooden longsword, as if he had been prepared all along.

"This is my newly modified Disposable Flying Sword 005 Version. Compared to 004 Edition, it adds a 'Curved Flight method' function, and the landing method adopts the 'Paratrooper-Style Descent' method, allowing you to enjoy the thrill and fun of bungee jumping when you land. Of course, to ensure personal safety, when it is within 0.1 meters of the ground, the Flying Sword 005 Edition will automatically protect its owner, eliminating any worries," Venerable White explained excitedly.

The true nature of the scheme is revealed!

The Copper Trigram Immortal Master swallowed hard. These functions sounded incredibly advanced, far beyond what someone like him could afford.

The immortal master quickly waved his hand to refuse. "No need to trouble Senior White, really, I can travel by myself using my escape techniques, it'll be quick! Please don't worry about my speed!"

"Don't speak~~ Go You!" Venerable White suddenly made a Sword Formula, and the new Disposable Flying Sword 005 Version lifted the Copper Trigram Immortal Master and his cart, soaring into the sky.

After soaring into the sky, the flying sword flew in an S-shaped curve, twisting like a snake, but at an incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, the Copper Trigram Immortal Master had vanished without a trace...

A series of wave-like screams echoed through the sky, proving that the Copper Trigram Immortal Master had once stayed on the island.

Watching Senior Copper Trigram being told "Go You" by Senior White, Song Shuhang's lips twitched—sigh, the seniors in the Nine Provinces Number One Group never seem to understand the principle that "if you don't court death, you won't die"!

"Hmm, the effect is not bad, but the flight arc could be improved a bit more. This version is intended for use within a planet, so perhaps we could switch to another series," Venerable White murmured.

Finally, the Venerable added, "I hadn't originally planned to use it for the Copper Trigram, but I'll have to make another Flying Sword 005 Edition when I have some free time."

Song Shuhang, who had been standing on the sidelines gloating, suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

It wasn't originally intended for the Copper Trigram Immortal Master... So who was it for? Besides the Immortal Master, there's only Doudou, the little monk, and a young Daoist named Song on the island.
