She is absolutely certain that the name "Fan Wubing" has not disappeared from this world.

But that is all she is sure of.

Fan Wubing hasn’t disappeared, but where exactly has he gone?

Footsteps sounded from the stairs, and Luo Qingyao walked up with a gentle step, "It feels like so much has happened all of a sudden. Chan’Er left, Yan Hui died, and Senior Sister just came back and then left again."

Fu Manman smiled and opened her arms, "Do you want a hug?"

Luo Qingyao stood beside her, "No way. Don’t even think about treating me like a younger sister."

Fu Manman looked at her delicate profile, "Wubing has not disappeared from this world. This is not a comforting lie."

Luo Qingyao nodded, "I know. My Daoist marriage contract with Senior Brother hasn’t been torn up. This means his Dao still exists, but I can’t get any sense of his life state." She lowered her head, "I always want to do something for him, but I can never do anything, so I feel very sad." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"I see."

Both women had complicated feelings, unable to be summed up in a few words.

Neither of them needed comfort from anyone.

People influence each other. Their daily interactions with Fan Wubing filled their hearts with a phrase, "No matter what happens, the road is beneath your feet, and moving forward is the only choice."

"Afterwards—" Both of them spoke in unison.

"You first." Again in unison.

Fu Manman smiled slightly, "Yesterday, I received news from Wangxian Pavilion saying that I won the Executive Dao trial. So, I might become the Human World Executor Dao of Wangxian Pavilion, representing Wangxian Pavilion on a Patrolling Dao across the world."

"Wow, that’s incredible! How did you do it?"

Fu Manman thought for a moment and softly said, "I’m not sure about the specifics. There’s no standard for Wangxian Pavilion’s selection, quite reminiscent of Daoist ways. But I think it might be related to my effort in bringing Mount Daiyu back to the mortal world."

"So, it was you who brought Mount Daiyu back to the mortal world!" Luo Qingyao’s eyes widened.

Fu Manman recounted what happened at Mount Daiyu.

After seeing Fu Ming’s message "I’m coming home soon," an unknown force caused Daiyu to suddenly fall into a strange state, as if suffering from the Five Decays of Nature, like a human being about to die. At that time, she didn’t think too much about it. Using the Eternal Dao, she infused part of Da Chun’s vitality into Daiyu, hoping to keep Daiyu hanging on.

But unexpectedly, she restored the life link between Da Chun and Daiyu.

These two ancient, immortal objects, united as one since their creation, finally "reunited" on January 21 after "separation" for ten thousand years. Daiyu was able to reappear in the mortal world.

However, Luo Qingyao’s mind was completely focused on Senior Sister Fu Ming’s affairs.

"And then? And then? What about Senior Sister after that?"

Recalling the scene made Fu Manman tremble slightly, "At the time, I only felt an overwhelming will suddenly fill Mount Daiyu Immortal Mountain. That will made it hard for me to breathe, but in an instant, I felt a gentle touch. Then, I saw a series of bloody footprints suddenly appear before my eyes, rapidly heading outside the mountain."

She gritted her teeth and said, "The speed was incredibly fast, and I had to rely on the eternal sun to see clearly where the footprints were headed. I didn’t think too much, as my mind was completely driven, and I followed them until I appeared where Wubing was facing his tribulation."

"Was that Senior Sister’s footprint?"

Fu Manman shook her head, "I can’t say for sure. It’s really strange... Looking back now, it still feels like a dream." She frowned, "Maybe Senior Sister Fu Ming herself never returned. Like how she carved her path on Mount Daiyu Immortal Mountain, she left her own footprints in this space."

This matter was beyond their comprehension.

Any guesswork and analysis seemed futile.

Everything about Fu Ming was like seeing flowers through mist to them.

Fu Manman exhaled, "Afterwards, I should return to Little South Continent. Visit my family, see the Eternal Immortal Sect... Once I arrange everything, I’ll go on a Patrolling Dao to various places."

"Have you thought about how to tell them about Senior Brother’s situation?"

Fu Manman said, "I will probably tell them to believe that Wubing will return."

This seemed to be the best explanation.

Luo Qingyao lowered her head, slightly frowning, murmuring, "Where has Senior Brother gone, and when will he come back?" In a change of thought, she lifted her head resolutely, "I must go find him! If Senior Brother is still in this world, then I will traverse every corner of it."

"Hmm, that’s good. You’ve always wanted to travel the world, and now you finally can." Fu Manman smiled slightly.

The two different individuals shared the same thought.

They no longer spoke.

They quietly gazed at the sky.

At some moment, Luo Qingyao suddenly turned and buried her head in Fu Manman’s embrace, silently weeping.

Fu Manman said, "Weren’t we agreed not to need comfort?"

"I thought I was strong enough! But, but when I think about Senior Brother leaving, not knowing where he’s gone, not knowing if he’ll return, when I think of these things... sob... these things, I can’t help it. What if I search the entire world and still can’t find him? What if he never appears again?"

Luo Qingyao cried loudly, "I don’t want to lose him! And Chan’Er, what happened to her, where did she go? What is Senior Sister doing? When will she say we’ll reunite? Why do I know nothing! Why can’t I do anything but cry!"
