Master, don't tease me, you can't handle three of them.

Chapter 181 Senior Brother, put it on properly!

Han Luo seemed quite interested and followed them out. After the three left, Gu Meng sat to the side, gazing at the beautiful scenery above the clouds, humming a little tune unconsciously.

"So happy? You don't want to go back to the Cloud Burial Sect, you know where Master wants us to go, right?" Shi Chuan asked with a smile as he piloted the spirit ship.

"Mmm!" Gu Meng nodded, her bright eyes sparkling with an unusual light.

"Senior Brother, my mother will be waking up soon!"

------------

"Xiao You! Come here!!!"

Gu Meng was dressed in a red dress, her hair styled into butterfly buns, the butterfly hair ornaments swaying gently with her movements, as if they had truly come to life.

At this moment, Gu Meng was standing on the roof of a restaurant, waving to Jing You in the crowd.

"coming!"

Jingyou weaved through the crowded throng and landed lightly beside Gu Meng.

"Junior Sister! Here!" Jingyou handed one of the sugar paintings he had been carefully protecting to Gu Meng.

Gu Meng took a bite and exclaimed, "Delicious! No wonder there are so many people queuing up!"

"That's right, I could smell it from far away!" Jingyou also began to enjoy his sugar painting.

Looking at the bustling crowd below, they had been in Chang'an for two or three days. The demonic energy given by Jun Mo was directed at this city.

They had searched almost the entire city, but still found no trace of the Nightmare Beast. This place wasn't under the jurisdiction of any sect, but rather the capital of an imperial dynasty—Chang'an—so they couldn't find any local cultivators to inquire about the situation.

The master and his disciples arrived at just the right time, coinciding with the Lantern Festival. They decided to rest and enjoy themselves for the night.

"Where are my brothers?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Meng climbed to a higher place and looked around. The blue, red, and white combination was still easy to spot.

"It's over there!"

Gu Meng quickly found her target, and with a light touch of her toes, she landed in front of Han Luo and the other person like a butterfly.

"Master! What... what's wrong?" Gu Meng didn't know why her master was angry. She looked at Jing Shu and then at Shi Chuan who was following behind.

Didn't Senior Brother promise Master he would wear red clothes?

Shi Chuan pulled Gu Meng and Jing You over to him, "Junior brother, just now, a girl confessed her feelings to you. Although you clearly rejected her, Master is still not very happy."

Jingyou gave a meaningful "oh".

Master is jealous! My brother is already good-looking and attracts many women, and now that he's changed out of his plain white robes, he's sure to be noticed by many girls!

With a wave of her hand, Gu Meng said, "Isn't this easy to solve?!"

Jing Shu looked at the pig head mask that had appeared in his hand, and then looked at Gu Meng, who had already put on the butterfly mask, with a puzzled expression.

"Senior brother, put it on properly!"

Jing Shu smiled, understanding Gu Meng's meaning, and put on the somewhat rough pig head mask.

"Master."

Han Luo, who was already somewhat unhappy, turned around upon hearing the sound. Jing Shu's pig-like face was so close that it was almost touching Han Luo's face.

Jing Shu took Han Luo's hand and whispered, "This way, Master won't be afraid of me being targeted by others."

Han Luo couldn't help but laugh out loud. He wasn't angry about that; he was only thinking about getting Jing Shu to wear the clothes, forgetting that others would covet Jing Shu. He was regretting that Jing Shu in red could only be seen by himself.

But it must be said that Han Luo was in a great mood upon seeing this.

"Master, this is yours!" Gu Meng handed over another deer mask that she had prepared at the right time.

That way, no one else will want to take a liking to Master!

Han Luo took the mask and handed it to Jing Shu, saying, "Help me."

“Okay,” Jing Shu replied with a smile.

Her aloof face was covered, and her unapproachable aura was somewhat diminished.

Jingyou adjusted the tiger mask on his face and looked at Shichuan. "How about it? Pretty cool, right?"

Shi Chuan, who was already wearing the rabbit mask, nodded. "Cool."

"There's a circus performance over there! Let's go!"

Jingyou cheered, and the group headed towards the acrobatic performance area.

However, there were too many people, and the group was quickly separated.

"Junior brother, I'm going to find Xiaoyou and Meng'er. You accompany Master for a stroll," Shi Chuan called out to Jing Shu in the crowd.

After seeing Jing Shu call out "Okay" to him, he went to find the other two people.

Han Luo turned her head to look at Jing Shu, "Were they doing this on purpose?"

Jing Shu couldn't help but chuckle and took Han Luo's hand. "Whether it was intentional or not, now it's just the two of us left, Master."

"Let's release some river lanterns then," Hanluo suggested.

When he arrived, he saw people releasing river lanterns, writing their wishes inside, and then placing them on the lanterns to float downstream.

Although it was just a thought, he still wanted to give it a try.

Be with your loved ones, just like any other ordinary person.

“Okay.” Jing Shu naturally listened to Han Luo, and the two walked towards the place where lanterns were sold.

"Uncle, please bring two river lanterns."

"Alright, alright, all the river lanterns are handmade by my wife. They're three coins each. Gentlemen, please choose the ones you like."

Even though they were wearing masks that only children would wear, their extraordinary charisma was undeniable. But even so, the old man didn't ask for an exorbitant price.

Three coins each, that's really cheap. Jing Shu picked up an exquisite ice lotus lantern and thought to himself.

Hanluo was still choosing, and Jingshu wasn't in a hurry. He chatted with the old man selling river lanterns.

"Your wife's cooking skills are indeed excellent."

"That's right! No one has ever said anything bad about what my wife makes!" The old man was incredibly proud when he heard Jing Shu praise his wife.

"She was originally going to come along, but there were too many people here, and my wife has trouble walking, so I let her stay home and rest. Otherwise, you two gentlemen would have been able to see her making river lanterns on the spot!"

After the old man finished speaking, Han Luo picked out what he wanted—a snow-white fox-shaped river lantern.

Jing Shu took out a piece of silver and paid the old man, saying, "Keep the change. Consider the rest as a gift for you and your wife to have some tea."

The old man knew these two men were well-off, so he said, "Great! Perfect timing, I can buy my wife a new dress! Thank you both, gentlemen!"

Han Luo held the river lantern in one hand, and a faint smile appeared on her lips as she looked at the Chusheng brush that Jing Shu had not yet put away.

Jing Shu is really becoming more and more likable...

As the two walked away, the old man rubbed his hands together, trying to thaw his frozen hands.

There were so many people selling river lanterns this year, I didn't think I'd make much money, but luckily, I met a kind young man, and now I can buy my wife some new clothes!

Now that no one is buying anymore, the old man opened his money bag, thinking about how much he had earned that night.

Besides buying new clothes, there's also the jujube paste cake that my wife loves; I should be able to use the money I save to buy one or two pieces...

Thinking this, the old man emptied the money from his purse into his hand.

Ok?

The old man's eyes widened as he looked at the glittering gold among the pile of copper coins.

Tonight, he only received a piece of silver, but now, the silver is gone.

"So, they were immortals..."
