The floating leaf cloud boat shuttled through the clouds, flying towards Akabane County City in a stealthy and fast manner.
Hong Yuan stood in the main boat room, extracting the essence of fire from the Qingyue flint while communicating with Jiang Nai.

【……】
Hong Yuan's attainments in the Fire Dao School also increased steadily.
Progressed from "none" to "ordinary".
"Ayuan, Baiwei and Congsheng will become husband and wife soon. Time flies so fast~" Jiang Nai said with emotion, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally.
"Yes, time flies so fast." A trace of sadness flashed in Hong Yuan's eyes.
Ten years ago, he just wanted to use Le Congsheng as a sharp knife to kill Chen Dongsheng.
He didn't expect that Le Congsheng would grow up so fast. Le Congsheng, who only had second-level qualifications, would develop better than some other first-level geniuses.
"Unknowingly, we have known each other for eight years." Jiang Nai suddenly raised his head.
Her eyes were flowing, tender as water, and full of warmth.
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.
In these eight years, Hong Yuan and Jiang Nai had not experienced anything spectacular.
Some are just daily routines like the slow flow of spring water in the mountains.
Plain, yet warm.
"Eight years..." Hong Yuan looked at Jiang Nai with a dazed look in his eyes.
It wasn't until this moment that he remembered that the narcissus-like girl in front of him had grown into a tall and graceful young lady.
Jiang Nai had her hands behind her back, her green clothes were like jade, her smile was like a flower, and she looked at Hong Yuan with a smile.
Just when Hong Yuan was organizing his words, Jiang Nai suddenly said: "Hehe, A Yuan, that old man of the Tang family is notoriously stubborn. Congsheng and Baiwei are not so easy to be recognized."
Hong Yuan tacitly agreed not to mention the previous conversation, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Old stubborn!?"
Jiang Nai nodded lightly, a look of frustration flashed deep in his eyes.
…
…
Three days later.
On a refreshing autumn morning, the floating leaf cloud boat arrived at Akabane County.
After a handover with the outer deacon stationed in Akabane County, Le Congsheng became high-spirited and sat in the carriage with great excitement.
If it weren't for the presence of Tang Baiwei and Jiang Nai, Hong Yuan had no doubt that this kid would have rushed to the Tang family in Beicheng.
An hour later, the carriage slowly drove into the gate of the Tang family.
Le Congsheng seemed to be elated, straightening his chest, and his whole person became much more positive.
"Third Miss."
"Sister Wei!"
The Tang family guards and the Tang family were surprised by Tang Baiwei's return.
Tang Baiwei nodded slightly, then walked to the first place and walked towards the west direction of the Tang family.
Her parents live in the west house.
Hong Yuan remained silent, quietly observing the situation around him.
In the garden, the exquisite pavilions and pavilions, the quiet and beautiful ponds and water corridors, as well as the large rockery, ancient stage, exquisite jade and other garden masterpieces make people miss it.
The carved dragon built on the ridge of the wall, with its scales and claws dancing, and its whiskers flying, seemed to be about to fly away, which made people even more surprised.
After a while, Hong Yuan followed Tang Baiwei to a house inlaid with jade.
Tang Baiwei took a deep breath, helped Le Congsheng tidy up his clothes, and then knocked on the mahogany door.
"Clang!"
There was a knocking sound on the door, and then there was the sound of hurried footsteps inside.
"Which one?"
A maid opened the mahogany door and looked up at Tang Baiwei.
"Miss!? Why are you back?" the maid said in surprise, and quickly welcomed Hong Yuan and others in.
"Plum Blossom, my parents and the others -" Before Tang Baiwei could finish her words, she saw a lady trotting over with tears in her eyes.
Although this lady is old, her appearance is dignified and bright, with a unique mature charm. She was definitely a beauty when she was young.
"Baiwei~"
"Mother~"
After not seeing each other for several years, the two mother and daughter hugged each other.
Jiang Nai on the side was also touched by this and thought of her mother.
The Tang family and the Jiang family were family friends, and they both lived in the north city of Akabane County.
She and Tang Baiwei entered Fengxi Sect at the same time to practice martial arts.
"Mom, let me introduce to you that he is my rightful husband, Brother Congsheng."
"Hello, aunt." Le Congsheng greeted with a naive smile.
Mother Tang looked up and down and reluctantly nodded, confirming her daughter's vision.
"Xiao Nai."
"Hello, Auntie." Jiang Nai smiled gently, which made Tang's mother's eyes light up.
"Xiao Nai, I didn't expect you to turn out to be such a beautiful woman. Do you have a wish for a husband? I don't have an aunt to find one for you."
Mother Tang walked around Jiang Nai and gave her thumbs up.
"This is Senior Brother Hong Yuan."
"Hello, aunt." Hong Yuan responded with a smile.
"Hmm~" Mother Tang saw Hong Yuan and felt panicked for some reason, as if she was going to be beaten to death in the next moment.
Tang's mother subconsciously pulled Tang Baiwei back into the house, as if to avoid Hong Yuan, and Le Congsheng quickly followed.
Jiang Nai from behind looked at Hong Yuan with enlightenment, but Hong Yuan smiled and said nothing.
Standing outside the house, neither Hong Yuan nor Jiang Nai entered.
The rest was for Le Congsheng to gain the approval of Tang's father and Tang's mother, and they couldn't help much.
Looking through the reflection in the window, Hong Yuan deduced that Tang's father was a man of few words.
Because Tang's father's reflection is quite stable and not as changeable as Tang's mother's reflection.
"Will Ayuan agree to come to my house? If I ask, will he look down upon me because I don't follow the rules?" Jiang Nai lowered his head and kicked his toes lightly.
She believed that Hong Yuan understood her feelings for him.
If Tang Baiwei treats feelings as hot as a fire, then she treats feelings as gentle as a flowing spring.
But why did she never get the most critical response from Hong Yuan?
"Is it possible that I am not the best Taoist partner in Ayuan's mind?" Jiang Nai's eyes were filled with sadness.
"Yes, many girls like men as heroic as him."
"If nothing else, Lin Yiru is an incomparable match for Ayuan. Lin Yiru has qualifications and family background, and can help Ayuan in many aspects of his martial arts practice."
"And I can't even guarantee my own practice, let alone try to help A Yuan."
The more Jiang Nai thought about it, the more frustrated she became, and her eyes became misty.
She thought that even if she got Hong Yuan, she might not be able to go to the end with Hong Yuan.
"What is this kid thinking? His mood swings are so big." Hong Yuan glanced at Jiang Nai in confusion.
Hong Yuan vaguely felt that Jiang Nai liked him, but he didn't know what kind of liking Jiang Nai had for him.
After all, Hong Yuan trained Jiang Nai according to the standard "white glove" method, conveying benefits and interacting with each other emotionally.
Maybe, people just cling to each other in their hearts?
Until the sun went down, the sky was getting dark, and Le Congsheng was so angry that the Tang family old man vomited blood, Jiang Nai still didn't muster up the courage to invite Hong Yuan to her home.
