The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Love, for adults, can easily turn them into fools.

Let alone the youth before him.

Li Muyang, half-jokingly and half-seriously, asked, wanting to learn more about this mysterious Miss Lu.

Knowing his good brother's embarrassing situation made him very happy.

But he was also worried that his good brother might be duped.

And facing Li Muyang's concern, Guan Xiaoshun nodded frankly as well.

"Mm, the things Elder Brother Li mentioned, I'm well aware of them."

The youth let out a deep sigh and said, "I really like her, and I do want to marry her."

"But it all happened so suddenly, and she has never clearly stated that she would marry me."

"Furthermore, my interactions with her have mostly been through letters, and the real opportunities to meet have been very few."

"I've never understood the thoughts of girls, so I also don't know what I should do."

"Therefore, I'd like to ask you, Elder Brother, to help me propose. But before proposing, I'd like to ask you to bring Sister Yu Chan with you."

"I want Elder Brother and Sister Yu Chan to help me assess her, as you both understand more than I do, and Sister Yu Chan is a girl, she understands the thoughts of girls."

"This time when you go to Jiezhou City, I'd like to ask Elder Brother and Sister Yu Chan to help me inquire about her, see how she feels. If she really likes me and is willing to marry me, then I would like Elder Brother to help me propose."

"But if she doesn't really like me, or... or doesn't want to marry me, I don't want to make it difficult for her."

"She has mentioned a lot about her family in the letters, she has deep feelings for her relatives at home, and might not be willing to marry far away from home, to leave her hometown for me..."

The youth had a sad expression on his face.

For a young man of his age, matters of the heart were of utmost importance.

His candid words made Li Muyang burst into laughter.

"Rest easy, I'll take care of this matter for you and ensure it's handled beautifully."

Li Muyang stood up tall, placing his hand on the youth's shoulder, and said, "This time you'll join us. If she's a good person and likes you, then I'll directly take you to the Lu residence to propose!"

"Who else are brothers for! You should've told me about this sooner!"

Li Muyang was very happy, his white teeth showing as he laughed.

But the youth's smile was somewhat stiff.

He hesitated for a moment and finally brushed Li Muyang's hand off his shoulder, stammering as he spoke.

"That... Elder Brother Li, just you and Sister Yu Chan go."

"I... I'll stay behind. I'll wait for your news at the sect."

Seeing Li Muyang's surprised expression, the youth bowed his head and said, "In the custom of a man proposing, it's usually the matchmakers and the elders who take the lead, I can't go..."

"If she finds out that I also went to Jiezhou City, she might think that with Elder Brother as my support, I look down on her family, that I would bully her because their Lu residence is less influential."

The youth's response was in line with the customs of this world.

Although Li Muyang lived a secluded life, he still understood the basic social niceties.

He thought for a moment and nodded, "Alright! Then you wait for my news at the sect."

"I'll go call for Yu Chan right now, and we'll set off immediately! To Jiezhou City!"

After speaking, Li Muyang excitedly sent a maid to call for his sister Li Yuechan.

Meanwhile, he prepared to leave.

"I'll go see Elder Yan to borrow her Flying Boat. With Elder Yan's Flying Boat, we'll surely reach Jiezhou City at the fastest speed."

"If we leave within two hours, Sister Yu Chan and I should be able to have breakfast in Jiezhou City tomorrow morning! Hahaha!"

Li Muyang was overjoyed, full of action and readiness.

Concerning his good brother's lifelong matter, he immediately geared up with no intent to delay, eager to rush to Jiezhou City right away.

And upon hearing Li Muyang's words, the youth was suddenly stunned.

"Huh? Borrow... borrow the Flying Boat from Elder Yan?"

He looked at Li Muyang with astonishment and murmured, "Would Elder Yan lend it to us?"

Elder Yan was notoriously cold and ruthless!

Why isn't Brother Li afraid of Elder Yan at all?

Guan Xiaoshun was a bit nervous; he grabbed Li Muyang's arm and said, "There's no need to be in such a rush, we can make the journey at a normal pace."

"Brother Li, you and Sister Yu Chan could just take a regular Flying Boat."

"It wouldn't be good to anger Elder Yan over such a trivial matter by asking for his help..."

Guan Xiaoshun was very considerate of Li Muyang's feelings. Li Muyang thought it over and found the logic sound.

He nodded and said, "All right! Then Yu Chan and I will take a regular Flying Boat; we should be able to reach Jiezhou City within three days."

"As for how to meet Miss Lu from the Lu family once we arrive in Jiezhou City, what to call her, and the matter between you two... um..."

Li Muyang pulled Guan Xiaoshun back into the room, brimming with enthusiasm as he began to delve deep into the matter.

"... You must tell me everything quickly, so that when I go to Jiezhou City, I can explain the situation to her."

Inside the room, the youth hesitated slightly and then began to narrate some of the incidents of how he became acquainted with Miss Lu.

As the story was almost complete, a maid happened to bring the baffled Li Yuechan over.

Seeing the two people in the room, Li Yuechan was somewhat puzzled.

"Brother? What's the matter?"

Li Muyang immediately stood up and said to her, "There's an important matter for which I must take you on a trip; we must leave for Jiezhou City right away."

"As for the specifics, I will explain them to you one by one on the road."

Li Muyang instructed the maid to prepare gifts and pack for the trip.

If they needed to propose a marriage, they had to bring enough gifts with them.

But before that, he needed to conduct a private investigation with Yu Chan about Miss Lu to see what kind of person she truly was.

If she indeed was a kind-hearted woman, then Li Muyang was absolutely determined to help facilitate the marriage between her and his good brother Guan Xiaoshun.

He couldn't let someone else beat them to it.

Li Muyang hurriedly set off, taking his just-arrived sister.

Li Yuechan was confused, but still obediently followed her brother.

And so, accompanied by Li Muyang's personal maids, the Li siblings promptly left the Law Enforcement Hall's Suspended Island, heading out of the martial arts sect.

The youth Guan Xiaoshun stood at the edge of the Suspended Island, silently watching the departing light of their escape, remaining silent for a long time.

It wasn't until that light vanished amidst the clouds floating within the sect that the youth at the edge of the Suspended Island let out a low sigh, a fleeting sadness flashing in his eyes.

"...Brother Li, Sister Yu Chan."

The youth stood among the clouds, gazing at the bustling and vivacious islands suspended above the misty sky.

As he observed the thriving and prosperous scenes within the sect, the shadows in his eyes deepened.

"... I hope you both come back later."

The youth said, looking into the distance.

He murmured, "Senior, you said you wanted to kill all the Demon Sect, letting no one escape except me... But Brother Li has been very good to me; I can't let him die in this catastrophe."

"Xiaoshun can only trade his own life for the lives of Brother Li and Sister Yu Chan."

"I will stay here in the sect, ready to face my fate."

The youth at the edge of the Suspended Island whispered to himself.

Clouds drifted across the sky, blocking out the sun.

A vast shadow fell upon him as if boundless darkness was swallowing him whole...
