Balala the Magic Fairy

Yan Lili was ordered to search for Siqi's whereabouts, but unexpectedly, a few days later, an immortal with a sage look and appearance came on the clouds. It was Huo Yuhao.

He held something wrapped in black cloth in his hand, walked to Yan Lili's house, and said in a loud voice: "Madam Lihua, Yuhao came here today to present something to me."

The door of the mansion slowly opened, and Yan Lili walked out. She was surprised to see Huo Yuhao, and hurriedly bowed and said, "It turns out that it is Lingbao Immortal Venerable who has come to visit. Lili is sorry for not coming in person to greet you. I wonder what the Immortal Venerable is holding in his hand?"

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly, handed over the object in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "This is Siqi's head. I discovered his whereabouts by chance, and after a fierce battle, I killed him and came here to give it to you, Madam."

Upon hearing this, Yan Lili's face became solemn. She took the black cloth and slowly opened it, only to see Siqi's head in plain sight. She felt mixed emotions, the pleasure of getting rid of a harm to the country but also the lament for Siqi's fate.

“Your Majesty, Lili thanks you on behalf of the Shang Kingdom.” Yan Lili bowed deeply, then ordered someone to bring a brocade box and handed it to Huo Yuhao. “This is an immortal medicine treasured by the royal family of the Shang Kingdom. It is of great benefit to cultivation. I want to express my gratitude.”

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao did not refuse. He took the brocade box and said with a smile, "Madam, you are too polite. Yuhao came here this time because someone asked him to. I hope you can accept this gift."

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before Huo Yuhao took his leave.

Yan Lili looked at his back and thought to herself, "This Immortal Venerable is indeed worthy of his reputation. Not only is his cultivation profound, but his actions are also upright. It would be a great fortune for the Shang Kingdom to have such an ally."

Afterwards, Yan Lili handed Siqi's head to Ruyi. Ruyi was overjoyed and ordered a generous reward for Huo Yuhao. She also ordered people to hang Siqi's head on the city gate as a warning to others.

From then on, everyone in Shang State knew that with the help of Immortal Venerable Huo Yuhao, the power of Shang State was even greater than before.

That day, Jiang Yanli rode a cloud and landed in front of Yan Lili's palace. With a gentle smile on her face, she said softly, "Madam Lihua, the flowers in Taohuawu are in full bloom these days. I wonder if you are interested in going out to enjoy the flowers with Yanli?"

Yan Lili was moved when she heard this. She had always heard that Taohuawu had a pleasant scenery, and it was even more beautiful when the peach blossoms were in full bloom.

She nodded and smiled, "Since my sister has invited me, Lili will accompany you. The beautiful scenery of Taohuawu is also what Lili longs for."

Jiang Yanli was delighted to see Yan Lili agreed, so she said, "That's great. Tomorrow morning, Yanli will wait for Madam outside the palace gate and go together."

Yan Lili nodded in agreement, and the two chatted for a while before Jiang Yanli said goodbye and left.

The next day, Yan Lili wore a light pink silk dress and a jade hairpin on her head. She looked elegant and refined, like a fairy from heaven.

She walked out of the palace gate and saw Jiang Yanli waiting outside. She was wearing a moon-white dress and had a gentle temperament, like a person in a painting.

The two smiled at each other, then went to Taohuawu hand in hand.

The fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds along the way are refreshing.

But Jiang Cheng, upon learning that his sister Jiang Yanli had invited Yan Lili to visit Taohuawu together, became worried and quietly followed them for safety reasons.

In Taohuawu, peach blossoms are in full bloom, like rosy clouds and brocade, which is beautiful beyond words.

Yan Lili and Jiang Yanli strolled among the flowers, admiring them endlessly.

Jiang Yanli said softly, "Madam, look at these peach blossoms, they are so gorgeous, just like the beautiful moments in life, short and precious."

Yan Lili nodded and said, "Sister, you are right. Peach blossoms are beautiful, but they are also ephemeral, just like youth. They are hard to come by and need to be cherished."

As the two were admiring the flowers, Jiang Cheng quietly appeared, with a concerned look on his face, and said, "Sister, Madam, Taohuawu is beautiful, but you still need to pay attention to safety."

Yan Lili felt warm at the sight of Jiang Cheng, knowing that he cared about her, and said with a smile, "My husband is thoughtful. Lili will be careful when traveling with her sister."

Seeing her brother like this, Jiang Yanli was also moved and said, "Brother Cheng, I am relieved to have you here."

As for Wei Wuxian, his spiritual awareness extended over a distance of 100,000 miles.

Upon learning that Jiang Yanli and Yan Lili were visiting Taohuawu together, he came up with a plan and hurried over with Lan Wangji, wanting to enjoy the beauty of the peach blossoms with everyone.

In Taohuawu, Wei Wuxian was dressed in black, with a flute on his waist, and his eyes were full of unruly.

He saw Yan Lili and Jiang Yanli enjoying the flowers and chatting, so he walked up to them with a smile and said, "Sister Yanli, Madam Lihua, what a coincidence, Wuxian and Lan Zhan are also here to enjoy the flowers. I wonder if they can come with you?"

Lan Wangji was dressed in plain clothes, with a handsome face and a cool air between his brows.

Seeing Wei Wuxian being so abrupt, he gently reminded him, “Wei Ying, don’t be disrespectful.”

Jiang Yanli was delighted to see Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji coming, so she said with a smile, “Wuxian, Wangji, it’s great that you two can come. The scenery of Taohuawu is just what you need to enjoy with your friends.”

Yan Lili also nodded and said, "Master Wei, Master Lan, the spring scenery in Taohuawu is just right. It is a great honor to have you two Taoist friends traveling with me."

So, several people strolled together in the peach blossom forest.

The fragrance of flowers fills the air, and petals fall in the wind, making it feel like a fairyland.

Wei Wuxian was in high spirits, picking peach blossoms from time to time and inserting them into Jiang Yanli and Yan Lili's hair, saying with a smile: "Sister Yanli, Madam Lihua, peach blossoms go well with beauties, and they make people look even more beautiful than flowers."

Jiang Yanli and Yan Lili felt that Wei Wuxian was being frivolous, but they did not take it as an offense. They just smiled at each other and let him go.

Lan Wangji frowned slightly when he saw Wei Wuxian being so indulgent, but he also knew his character, so he said no more and just stood by him silently.

When the four people were enjoying the flowers, they suddenly heard the sound of a piano, which was melodious and pleasant, making them feel relaxed and happy.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw an immortal in white sitting under a peach tree, gently stroking the strings of a zither. It was none other than Park Seo-joon, an expert zither player.

When Park Seo-jun saw everyone coming, he stopped playing the piano, stood up and bowed, saying, "Sister Yanli, Madam Lihua, Master Wuxian, Master Wangji, Seo-jun has been waiting for you for a long time."

Jiang Yanli was delighted to see Park Seo-jun here, and said, "Lang agreed, your piano skills have become more and more exquisite. It is a great honor to be able to hear this piece of music today."

Yan Lili also praised: "Lang Yingqinyin is indeed worthy of its reputation. Lili is also happy to have this blessing today."

Wei WuXian stepped forward with a smile and said, "Xujun, your piano playing is so beautiful, why don't you play another song for us?"

Seeing Wei Wuxian say this, Park Seo-jun smiled slightly and said, "Since Master Wuxian is so interested, Seo-jun will obey your order."

So Park Seo-joon sat down again and gently stroked the strings of the piano. A song "Peach Blossom" slowly flowed out, with a gentle and intoxicating melody.

After hearing this, everyone was amazed and thanked Park Seo-joon one after another.

In this way, the four of them admired the flowers and listened to the music in Taohuawu until the sun set in the west, and then they left reluctantly.

During the Flower Festival, spring returns to the earth and all things come back to life.

The Shang palace was decorated with lights and full of joy. The Holy Emperor Yihui ordered a grand banquet and invited all the immortals in heaven to celebrate the festival together.

Everyone in the palace was busy preparing a feast to welcome the immortal guests from all directions.

On that day, in the Shang King's palace, celestial music was heard, and flowers bloomed in full bloom, with an overwhelming fragrance.

Emperor Yihui was dressed in a golden dragon robe and a jade crown on his head. He sat in the main hall with a smile on his face and looked radiant.

Yan Lili was wearing a palace dress embroidered with golden phoenixes and a phoenix crown on her head. She looked graceful and stood beside Ruyi to welcome the immortals together.

Soon, the immortals arrived on clouds, and the palace gate was filled with immortal air and auspicious colors.

Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji were also invited, and they came together, looking very elegant.

Wei Wuxian was wearing a red and black robe, with a flute on his waist, and his eyes were full of unruly.

When he saw Ruyi and Yan Lili, he bowed and smiled, "Saint Emperor Yihui, Madam Lihua, Wuxian and Lan Zhan have come to the banquet. I wish today's banquet to be joyful and peaceful."

Lan Wangji was dressed in plain clothes, with a handsome face and a cool air between his brows.

Seeing Wei Wuxian being so abrupt, he raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

Afterwards, he also bowed to Ruyi and Yan Lili and said, "Holy Emperor, Madam, Wangji is polite."

Ruyi was delighted to see the two of them coming, and said with a smile, "Master Wei, Master Lan, it is a great honor for the Shang Kingdom that you two are here."

Yan Lili also nodded and smiled.

Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji thanked Ruyi and Yan Lili, then took their seats and drank with the other immortals, sharing this grand event in the immortal world.

During the dinner, Wei Wuxian chatted with Lan Wangji, Jiang Yanli, Jiang Cheng and others from time to time. They talked and laughed happily, and the atmosphere was warm.

Lan Wangji sat quietly by the side most of the time, occasionally whispering to Wei Wuxian, but more often he just stood by and guarded silently.

Ruyi raised her cup and said to the immortals, "Today is the Flower Festival. I am very pleased that you have come to visit me. Here, I offer a toast to you all. I wish that our friendship with you will last forever and that you will have a prosperous journey to immortality."

All the immortals raised their glasses in response, and there was laughter and joy in the palace until late at night, when they dispersed with great joy.

Wei Wuxian drank a lot of immortal wine during the banquet. With a slightly tipsy look on his face, he smiled at Lan Wangji and said, "Lan Zhan, today's banquet was really enjoyable. I wonder what you think?"

Lan Wangji smiled slightly and replied, "Wei Ying, today's banquet is indeed rare. It is also a blessing to be able to gather with all the immortals together."

/

Lan Wangji can’t drink much, and the immortal wine is mellow and has a strong aftertaste.

After a few rounds of drinking, he was a little tipsy.

When the ministers saw that he had a handsome face and a hint of drunkenness in his coolness, he looked even more elegant and graceful, and they all liked him.

The banquet was about to end, and Lan Wangji stood up to say goodbye. His steps were light and he was about to ride a cloud to leave, but someone with evil intentions took the opportunity to stop him.

One of the ministers, named Su Moli, was a playboy. When he saw Lan Wangji drunk, he became malicious and smiled at another minister, Liu Qingfeng, and secretly exchanged glances with him.

Su Moli stepped forward and pretended to be concerned, "Mr. Lan, you drank a lot of immortal wine today. It's getting late now. Why don't you rest in the palace for a night and leave tomorrow?"

Lan Wangji frowned slightly. Although he was drunk, he knew something was wrong, so he bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Minister Su. However, Wangji can still do it on his own, so there is no need to trouble you."

Seeing this, Liu Qingfeng also stepped forward to persuade him, "Master Lan, if you leave now, what if something goes wrong? How can we explain to the Holy Emperor? It is better to rest for a while and go again tomorrow."

Lan Wangji knew that the two men had bad intentions, so he tried to use his internal energy to dispel the drunkenness, but unexpectedly Su Moli and Liu Qingfeng took advantage of his unpreparedness and suddenly attacked and tied him up.

“What do you two mean by this?” Lan Wangji’s voice was cold and contained a hint of anger.

Su Moli smiled and said, "Master Lan, please don't blame me. We just admire your elegance and style, and would like to ask you to stay for a while and spend a good night with me."

Liu Qingfeng also echoed, "That's right, Master Lan, why are you in such a hurry to leave? We will definitely treat you well."

Lan Wangji's heart sank. He knew it was not the right time to fight back, so he said coldly, "If you two don't let go, don't blame me for being rude."

Su Moli and Liu Qingfeng looked at each other, and saw that although Lan Wangji was tied up, his momentum was not diminished, and they couldn't help feeling a little afraid.

But then I thought, what can he do if he is drunk now?

Just as the two were hesitating, they suddenly heard a cold snort, and a figure appeared in front of them like a ghost. It was Jiang Cheng.

"Su Moli, Liu Qingfeng, you are so bold that you dare to be rude to Master Lan!" Jiang Cheng's face was gloomy and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

Su Moli and Liu Qingfeng were shocked to see Jiang Cheng coming. They quickly let go of Lan Wangji and knelt down to beg for mercy: "Master Jiang, please forgive us. We were just confused for a moment. We hope you will show mercy."

Jiang Cheng snorted coldly. He was always upright and upright, and he hated things that went against the rules the most. He shouted, "Your behavior has violated the palace rules. I will report it to the Holy Emperor and then make the final decision."

After saying that, Jiang Cheng escorted Su Moli and Liu Qingfeng away, then turned to Lan Wangji and said, "Brother Wangji, we should not stay here for long. I will take you back home."

Lan Wangji nodded slightly. He was very grateful to Jiang Cheng for showing up, so he said, "Thank you, Master Jiang."

Jiang Cheng waved his hand and said, "Mr. Lan, you don't have to be polite. It is my duty to maintain order in the palace."

Afterwards, Jiang Cheng personally sent Lan Wangji back to the mansion, and ordered people to keep a close eye on Su Moli and Liu Qingfeng, and to report to Ruyi when she woke up tomorrow.

/

Wei Wuxian watched coldly from the sidelines, secretly amused when he saw Lan Wangji almost get into trouble.

He had always known that Lan Wangji had a cold and aloof personality, so seeing him drunk and in trouble today couldn't help but find it amusing.

However, when Jiang Cheng showed up and captured Su Moli and Liu Qingfeng, Wei Wuxian's smile gradually faded, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

After Lan Wangji and Jiang Cheng left, Wei Wuxian followed quietly, all the way to the outside of Lan Wangji's mansion.

He hid in the dark and only appeared when he saw Jiang Cheng sending Lan Wangji into the mansion.

“Lan Zhan, you have to thank Jiang Cheng for what happened today.” Wei Wuxian stepped into the mansion with a hint of teasing in his tone.

Lan Wangji was a little sober now, and he just smiled faintly when he heard this, saying: "Brother Jiang Cheng is so righteous, Wangji will remember it in his heart."

Seeing Lan Wangji’s expression as usual, Wei Wuxian couldn’t help but smile and said, “You are always so calm and composed. If Jiang Cheng hadn’t intervened in time today, you, a noble gentleman, would have been defiled.”

Lan Wangji frowned slightly. He knew that Wei Wuxian was a carefree person who didn't care about small matters, but he never thought that he would be so outspoken.

“Wei Ying, what happened today was indeed an accident.” Lan Wangji sighed and said, “But you seem to be gloating over this?”

Wei WuXian laughed and said, “I just think it’s interesting for a high and mighty Han Guang Jun like you to occasionally fall to earth.”

Lan Wangji knew that Wei Wuxian had no ill intentions and was just being stubborn, so he stopped talking and just said softly, "Wei Ying, it's late. If you have nothing to do, go back and rest early."

Wei Wuxian saw that Lan Wangji had ordered them to leave, but he did not take it as an offense. He just smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'll leave now. But, Lan Zhan, you have to be careful. I'm afraid someone did what happened today on purpose."

Lan Wangji's eyes froze when he heard this, and he asked in a deep voice, "Wei Ying, what do you mean by that?"

Wei WuXian said sternly, “From what I’ve seen, Su MoLi and Liu QingFeng didn’t seem to act on impulse, but rather had a plan in advance. You need to be more careful when you go out in the future.”

Lan Wangji nodded. He knew that although Wei Wuxian was cynical on a daily basis, he was a thoughtful person and what he said must have some truth.

“Wei Ying, thank you for the reminder. I will be careful.” Lan Wangji bowed.

Wei WuXian waved his hand and said with a smile, “You’re welcome. There’s no need to thank me between you and me. Okay, I’m really leaving now. You should get some rest.”

After saying this, Wei Wuxian turned and left, leaving Lan Wangji alone, standing in front of the mansion, looking at the stars in the night sky, with a hint of deep thought in his eyes.

/

That night, the moonlight was as bright as water, and Lan Wangji fell asleep in his bedroom.

Suddenly, I felt someone climbing onto the bed quietly and silently.

He suddenly knew who was coming, but pretended not to know.

Seeing that Lan Wangji had no reaction, Wei Wuxian was secretly delighted, thinking that Lan Wangji was asleep, so he boldly moved closer to him.

He was about to make a few jokes when Lan Wangji suddenly turned over and hugged him tightly.

“Wei Ying, it’s late at night and everyone is asleep. Why are you here instead of going to rest?” Lan Wangji’s voice was low and slightly hoarse, which seemed even more charming in the silent night.

Wei WuXian was startled by his sudden action, then smiled and said, “Lan Zhan, weren’t you asleep? Why are you so alert?”

Lan Wangji didn't answer, but hugged him tighter, stroked Wei Wuxian's hair with his fingers, and whispered, "If you have nothing to do, go back and rest early, don't make trouble here."

Seeing him like this, Wei Wuxian felt warm in his heart. He knew that although Lan Wangji's words were cold, he actually cared about him, so he said softly: "Lan Zhan, I just want to stay with you for a while, and I have no other intentions."

Lan Wangji's heart softened when he heard this. He loosened his arms to allow Wei Wuxian to catch his breath, but did not let him leave. He just looked at him quietly with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

“Wei Ying, although our friendship is deep, we must also be careful about our limits.” Lan Wangji said softly. His voice sounded particularly pleasant in the night.

Seeing him like this, Wei WuXian knew that he was not really angry, so he smiled and said, “Okay, okay, I’ll listen to you. But, Lan Zhan, you have to promise me that you will never chase me away at any time in the future.”

Lan Wangji looked at him, a smile flashing in his eyes, and said: "Wei Ying, there is no need for so much talk between you and me."

Seeing him like this, Wei Wuxian knew what he was thinking, so he said no more. He just lay quietly beside him, enjoying this rare quiet time.

The two of them slept like this, leaning on each other, until dawn.
