Tonight, the restaurant was not open for business. On the second floor, there was a table that could accommodate over twenty people. All kinds of signature dishes and delicacies were placed here.

Unable to refuse Xu Yu and the rest, Ma Xin sat at the head of the table and ate a mouthful of hot food. The old man sighed in his heart, after all these years of solitary living, how long had it been since he had had a good meal like this?

By his side, Dong Baiyan, who was dressed in coarse clothes, was even more restrained. He ate the rice in his bowl with small bites and did not take any side dishes. It had been many years since his youth had eaten a meal in such a blissful manner!

Xu Yu looked at the elder sitting in the main seat and thought to himself, I hope this old deity can help this lonely child.

Ever since she had met Dong Liuyan, Senior Qian's attention had been on the teenager. The short-haired woman who was following the martial path could clearly feel that the teenager in front of her was absorbing the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth crazily even while he was eating and drinking. What an unpolished gem!

Senior Qian, who had come from nowhere, smiled at the young man who was eating his food and asked, "May I know where this young master is from and where he is cultivating?"

Ma, who had drunk a mouthful of wine, watched the scene unfold silently. After asking Xu Yu, the old man found out what had happened to the young man.

Indeed, all living things in this world had their own difficulties. No wonder there was a saying, 'all living beings are at the ends of the earth'.

Fortunately, seeing the young man shake his head, Senior Qian didn't continue asking.

The night was as cool as water. After this awkward dinner, Dong Wuyan sat on the back porch chair. If he were to stay outside at this hour, he would definitely feel chilled to the bone. And now, touching his warm little hand, Dong Shuiyan thought to himself, "Is this the benefit of cultivating?"

He still didn't accept the silk bag. The young man's personality was simple, he had to repay the things he owed others. You only have ten years of life, what are you going to give back to the blacksmith who helped you?

The youth once sincerely smiled at Ma Xin, saying that his life depended on himself. However, that was just a facade made by the youth to comfort himself. Who wouldn't want to live on happily? Besides, there were so many things he needed to figure out.

"Hey, what are you thinking about?"

Under the bright moonlight, the girl in the blue dress stood up gracefully.

The girl lowered her head to look at the chair. The youth suddenly understood and quickly made room for her to sit at the other end of the chair.

"Hey, why are you so far away from me!" Cao Wan'er was both angry and amused. She just wanted to give her some space to sit down. Why did she suddenly sit so far away? She wasn't a man-eating beast!

"Ahh!"

Dong Shuiyan, who was not good at interpersonal communication, did not know how to reply. Looking at the young girl in a long skirt at this time of the year, the youth felt his head heat up.

"Isn't this cold?"

Sitting next to the young man, under the moonlight, Dong Shuiyan could even smell the young girl's sweet scent. Cao Wan'er laughed, "Oh, this dress was woven from the Cold Water Silkworm we caught in the Cold River Palace nearby, so the water is not wet and the fire is not bad. It's warm in winter and cold in summer, but even a thousand taels of silver might not be enough to buy it."

The young man beside her was only wearing coarse clothes. Cao Wan'er felt a little apologetic in her heart. He wouldn't feel that she was showing off to him just because she said that, would he?

He was not hurt by the girl's words at all. His eyes lit up and he asked, "It's so valuable. Is it easy to get that Cold Water Silk?"

Cao Wan'er rolled her eyes at him and said, "How could it be that easy? Just the cold pond and the weak body will cost you half your life if you go down there. Only you and I, cultivators, can go down there for such a short time."

"We cultivators?"

Cao Wan'er turned her head and said, "Yes, aren't you a cultivator too? "However, you've hidden it quite well. I haven't discovered it before. Where are you cultivating?"

Dong Shuangyan didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that the young man did not say anything, Cao Wan'er did not pursue the matter anymore.

The silent youth suddenly asked, "Tell me, if you knew that you still had a few more years to live, what would you do?"

"Huh?"

Cao Wan'er leaned her head on her hands and said, "Let me think."

In the past, no one had asked the young girl such a question about her lack of nutrition.

After thinking for a while, Cao Wan'er smiled. "I want to be a female warrior who can get rid of evil and get rid of evil. I want to walk in the martial arts world and find injustice in a single roar!" "Kill the worst evil people, save those pitiful people, and have everyone in the martial arts world keep my name. Then, go on a sightseeing tour, eat and drink to their heart's content."

Smiling happily, the young girl said, "Who knows, maybe he just ate some immortal pills that can prolong his life, then he won't have to die anymore, and he can just continue to live."

The young girl's words were brimming with energy and vitality. The youth was flabbergasted upon hearing it.

"What if you don't have any immortal pills?"

Tilting her head, Cao Wan'er frowned. "Then what do we do? We can act in a righteous manner, eat and drink to our heart's content. We'll bid farewell to our relatives and find a place to wait for death."

Following that, the young girl stuck out her tongue, "Pah pah pah! Why would I die? I'm a 16 year old female Spirit Condensation expert. It's not a problem even if I live for a hundred years. What do you mean I won't die? Pah pah!"

Dong Liuyan scratched his head and smiled as well. It was great that this girl could do so much, but what about him?

"What are you laughing about? "If it was you, what would you do?" Cao Wan'er retorted.

Dong Liuyan smiled bitterly, "I don't know what to do, or what I can do."

"You are so stupid!" Cao Wan'er scolded, "I told you, you can eat good food and play good fun. You can ride a white steed, carry a sword on your back, and carry a jug of wine. "Whether I can leave my name behind or not, I have a name in the martial arts world, such as Lin Xianzi or the Hibiscus girl. Only by roaming the mountains and rivers can you be worthy of coming to this world."

Replacing her, the young girl stood up excitedly with sparkling eyes. She was no different from the young man who was obsessed with money.

Dong Liuyan was engrossed in his conversation.

"And you can't just do nothing. You have to say your goodbyes to your loved ones, right?" The young girl lectured again, "Traveling in the martial arts world is a matter of gratitude, and a drop of water should be given to you. That kindness of rearing, even more so, must not be forgotten."

Under the moonlight, the youth drooped his head and whispered, "But I don't have any relatives left."

As if she had stabbed a hornet's nest, Cao Wan'er, who exposed the scars of others, said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose."

The youth smiled as he waved his hand. "It's fine."

She patted his shoulder gently and comforted him, "Don't think too much. You still have friends without family."

"I don't have any friends either …" Dong Wuyan said bitterly.

Other than Grandpa Dong, it was hard for a teenager to even talk to someone else. How could he have a friend?

The girl wished she could slap herself. Why didn't she know how to speak?!

Perhaps it was because a long time had passed by alone. Today, after so many people had eaten a lively meal, it was hard to avoid the excitement in their hearts. They whispered: "I have been here since I was young, and people in the town think I am a bane, bringing bad effects to the people around me."

"In the past, no one would be so close to me, and no one would be willing to say a single word to me, so sometimes you just think about it. Since no one has spoken, why not just shut your mouth? As for your family, I also want to know where my parents are, but when I think about it, would it be awkward to see them? Since they were already abandoned, wouldn't it be bad for both sides to meet again? "

The youth's eyes seemed to be filled with waves as he looked extremely charming. "Thank you for speaking so much to me today."

Silence reigned as Cao Wan'er looked at the depressed young man. She didn't say anything for a moment, but she quickly forced the young man to look at her face to face.

Dong Liuyan would never forget the old lady's words before him.

It was warm, warmer than a bed in the cold autumn of the morning.

"Who said you have no friends? From now on, I'm your friend!"

"Don't think too passively about anything. Maybe your relatives have their own reasons?"

"I'm older than you, so you can acknowledge me as your big brother! "In the future, I'll count it as your chivalrous hero. I'll travel all the way to the north and give you a horse to ride on."

Under the bright moonlight, the heroine beside the young man was full of heroic spirit.

And within the youth's eyes, water rippled.

On the morning of the third day, Ma Xin was slightly surprised. He thought that he would have to persuade Dong Wuyan again with all his heart. This young man was able to go with him to Green Brilliance County. Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly. It was as if the dead tree had started to regain its vitality. As for whether it would be the last glimmer of light or a new look, no one knew.

They left the town and waded through the mountains until it was noon, when they stopped to rest.

Senior Qian looked at Dong Shuiyan who was leaning against the tree and drinking water, and nodded to herself. He was younger than Junior Wan'er, but he did not complain or complain along the way.

Senior Qian did not know what this young man had experienced over the years. In fact, this young man could endure it, but he could endure it as well. This young man had endured it for so many years.

On the way, Cao Wan'er, who was riding on her own steed, and Dong Tianleng, who was mounted on her horse, chattered about her journey down the mountain.

Seated in front of the young man, Ma Xin looked at Cao Wan'er who was leisurely talking to Dong Shuiyan who was listening carefully, and said teasingly, "Little fairy, are you trying to bring Dong Shuyan back to the River Cascade Palace?"

The young girl's face blushed as she stopped abruptly.

Unexpectedly, Senior Qian, who had been leisurely following the young girl, said with a serious tone, "With this level of talent, if you are able to join my Riverside Palace, then of course my Riverside Palace will be extremely happy."

On horseback was the story of a young girl acting with chivalry and righteousness. The young man listened attentively, and it was as if his sword had pierced through the remnant ghost and cut off the beast spirit.

At dusk, everyone could vaguely see the outline of the County City.

In the sky above Green Brilliance County, black clouds covered the city.

Ma Zhen smacked his lips and said, "Interesting."

Senior Qian's expression was grave. Just looking at the city under the dark clouds was enough to make people feel depressed.

Cao Wan'er placed her hand on her sword. "Good brother, it's time for you to kill the demon and exterminate the devil."

Dong Liuyan stared at the black cloud in a daze. What should he do in a while?
