On the day Shang Shujue and Song Yanqing got married, the whole world cheered for them. The media reports were all about him, and the banquet lasted for five days and five nights.
Everyone was welcome to come and eat, enjoy a bit of good fortune, and offer their blessings to spread happiness. For those few days, everyone was in high spirits.
Under the witness of Ren Daiqi and Mo Heng, the Lord of the Demon Abyss who had not yet left, Shang Shujue and Song Yanqing entered the hall of marriage and made a vow of never abandoning each other under the Divine Covenant Tree.
During this time, Su Youchuan, who had worked hard for a long time, finally touched the edge of the world, but was overwhelmed by the overflowing joy just as he was about to step into it. Ren Daiqi found him and showed him the wedding video.
He stood disheveled in the void, watching Shang Shujue smiling broadly beside Song Yanqing, radiating happiness from head to toe.
That day, Su Youchuan remained silent for a long time. He did not fly into a rage, nor did he frantically try to enter that world and confront Shang Shujue. He simply remained silent, like a lifeless piece of wood, devoid of vitality, utterly still.
He only stirred slightly when Nian Chen found him. Before Nian Chen could speak, he raised his hand to interrupt him and looked at Ren Daiqi, asking, "He's very happy now, isn't he?"
Ren Daiqi slightly surprised, not understanding why Su Youchuan had spent so much time suddenly coming over to ask such a strange question, but he still nodded.
"As you can see, he is very happy."
Su Youchuan glanced at the image in the void again. Shang Shujue and Song Yanqing were kissing amidst the attention of everyone, and carrying the color of happiness, they rode in their wedding car around the world, spreading happiness to every place.
Whether he was happy or not was no longer a question. Su Youchuan withdrew his gaze, pursed his lips, nodded slightly, turned around, and left without saying a word.
"Hey! Su Youchuan, where are you going?! Wait for me!"
Nian Chen glanced hurriedly at Ren Daiqi, nodded slightly, and then followed. Ren Daiqi had stood in the void for a long time that day, but still couldn't figure out Su Youchuan's intentions.
It wasn't until long after Su Youchuan had completely disappeared that Shang Shujue learned that on his wedding day, Su Youchuan had found this world, but he hadn't broken into it.
He didn't know what Su Youchuan meant, nor did he want to know. The person who truly wanted to know his thoughts was already by his side; whether he could see them was not up to him.
"You lost too..."
After watching Su Youchuan being taken back to the Land of Obsession by Nian Chen, Mo Heng remained silent for a long time before withdrawing the virtual image. He looked up at the boundless blue sky and white clouds, as if trying to see something through the clouds.
In the end, he saw nothing clearly, only pursed his lips slightly, and in an instant, he left this world, silently and without a trace, as if he had never existed.
Shang Shujue only found out from Nuomi half a month after Mo Heng left. At that time, he was cutting roses in the yard, preparing to take them back to put in a vase.
"Huh? His vacation ended so quickly? Nuomi, why are you only telling me now?"
"Host, I only received the message today. You know there's a delay in my system."
Nuomi lay on the grass next to Shang Shujue, stretching his paws and yawning. He spoke in a very lazy and even somewhat self-righteous manner. Shang Shujue was both annoyed and amused by him, and finally decided to ignore him.
"Okay, any missions lately? I'm getting a bit bored. I've pretty much seen all the gossip, and haven't triggered any other hidden missions. I'm really bored out of my mind."
Shang Shujue put the scissors into the woven basket, picked up the basket, and turned to go into the house, with Nuomi following closely beside him.
"I've finished all the hidden quests. I have a long-term cooperative quest, but it involves leaving this world. I think it's better to wait until all your family and friends are gone before I take you and Song Yanqing there."
Nuomi checked her task panel but didn't find any hidden tasks. However, she did find a long-term task that required cooperation, so she told Shang Shujue about it.
"A quick transmigration/redemption story?" Shang Shujue became interested and couldn't help but ask him as soon as she put down the woven basket.
"Yes, I don't know if it's a raising a child or a face-slapping type, but it's quite interesting. If you're interested, you can keep an eye on it, and I'll take you there to have some fun later."
Nuomi yawned, jumped onto the table, lay down and curled up into a ball, its fluffy fur appearing even softer under the warm light.
Shang Shujue couldn't resist ruffling his fur before starting to work on the flower branches in her hands.
"Okay, then Song Yanqing and I will be in your care."
Time is a sudden and unexpected surprise; in the blink of an eye, many years have passed in this world, and Shang Shujue has lived in this world for many years as well.
Those family members and friends who received the protective beads from him have long since returned to dust, but their souls have entered the Quick Transmigration Bureau and become the best in their respective departments.
Zhang Zhichen and Bai Zhiyi officially got together ten years after their idol group disbanded. By then, marriage laws had already been established, and they registered their marriage the day after they got together.
Living together was a natural progression. Although they had their arguments and disagreements, they never considered separating. After making up, they were able to live happily together again, and they managed their lives quite well.
Others also lived their lives to the fullest, whether they got married and had children or lived a carefree life alone; everyone had a good life.
Ren Daiqi has completely taken control of the entire world's operation. After Shang Shujue sent his family to the Quick Transmigration Bureau, apart from Song Yanqing, there are basically no other people in the world who have any contact with him.
So, in the dead of night, Shang Shujue transferred two-fifths of his fortune to Ren Daiqi, entrusting the entire world to him. In return, Ren Daiqi found a secluded place to live, far from the crowd, yet still able to know everything.
Will you come back?
As he left, Ren Daiqi couldn't help but ask them, "If they also leave, then I'll be all alone in this world, immortal, watching the world change in vain..."
"Yes, this is our home, and always will be. Ren Daiqi, take good care of the World Tree sapling you gave me; maybe it will grow into a unique fruit."
Shang Shujue patted Ren Daiqi's shoulder gently, like an elder. After speaking, he and Song Yanqing held hands and disappeared into the white mist.
Ren Daiqi looked at the World Tree sapling in his hand, remained silent for a moment, and then planted it on the land in his mountain forest.
About five hundred years later, it finally grew its first fruit, and inside the fruit was a tiny person, a beautifully carved little girl.
Afterwards, a woman of destiny reappeared in this world, and a world with magic officially began, with her story unfolding and a new chapter being set...
