Looking at everyone’s astonished expressions, Liu Zixuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "The most important thing this time is the beads in this wooden box. Back then, the Willow Association’s ancestor didn’t mention this Dragon-shaped Jade Pendant. I suppose it shouldn’t be too important. You can have it."

Jiang Yunxuan took the Jade Pendant again and said, "Let me study it carefully. If there’s nothing special, I’ll return it to you. I really feel like there’s some kind of connection with me!"

"Mr. Liu, we’ve now arrived in the Star Sea Airspace. Shall we go directly to Celestial Fate City or somewhere else?"

At that moment, the co-pilot came over and asked.

Liu Zixuan didn’t even think before responding, "Just take us to the Land of the Far North!"

"The Land of the Far North?" The co-pilot was stunned: "I’ve heard it’s not very peaceful there recently. Seeing your injuries aren’t healed yet, are you sure you want to go?"

Zhao Yi knew that the reason Liu Zixuan wanted to fly directly to the Land of the Far North was for him. Looking at Liu Zixuan, he said, "Brother Xuan, let’s wait until your wounds are healed."

Liu Zixuan laughed and said, "My wounds aren’t a big deal. It’s not like I have external injuries that prevent me from walking, just some internal injuries. Handling these things is still pretty easy, especially with you guys around! And if all else fails, I have my little brother-in-law here!"

"Though I really don’t want to be your brother-in-law, your point is valid. As long as something happens within the Star Sea, I’ll definitely get it handled for you." Jiang Yunxuan boasted.

"Just now, you said you didn’t want to rely on your old man." Tiger mocked.

"I’m asking my family to help Zhao Yi, not myself. It doesn’t count!" Jiang Yunxuan retorted.

"Alright, alright, you’re the silly one, you decide!"

"Well then, let’s fly directly to the Land of the Far North." The co-pilot looked at the group joking around and returned their smiles as he went back to the cockpit.

"Old Zhao, is your little girlfriend particularly beautiful?" Gu Yu leaned forward to ask.

Hearing this topic, Zhao Yi’s face couldn’t help but reveal a hint of affection, which was somewhat disconcerting, as Zhao Yi’s cultivation of the Celestial Spirit Saber infused his whole being with the Celestial Spirit Power. Clearly, this hint of affection seemed a bit out of place!

Grinning, he said, "Nannan may not be the most beautiful girl, but she’s the most understanding, sensible, and obedient girl I’ve ever met. She’s very empathetic, as you know, I’m quite introverted and don’t talk much, but she always finds topics to chat with me about."

"See, even the most impressive people turn into fools when they’re in love." Jiang Yunxuan grinned, "From a god of slaughter wielding the Celestial Spirit Saber, he turns into a super dad at the mention of Nannan!"

"Hehe, anyway, Nannan is just wonderful. I thought she was dead before, and it felt like the whole world was empty. Now that I know she’s alive, I’m overjoyed!" Zhao Yi grabbed Gu Yu’s hand and said, "Besides, Nannan cooks really well. When we meet her, I’ll have her make you something delicious."

"So, does Nannan have any sisters? Close friends would work too!" Tiger rubbed his hands, "You all have wives, and you can’t leave me single all the time."

"You, you’re destined to eat dog food in this life." Jiang Yunxuan pointed at Tiger and muttered, "Look at your big and tall build, look at that car wreck of a face, coupled with your overdue emotional intelligence and intelligence, and that foolish personality—what girl would want to be with you!"

"Damn you!" Tiger cursed unhappily, "If I can’t find a wife, I’ll crash at your place and sleep with you and your wife every day!"

"Hahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter at his words.

Liu Zixuan patted Zhao Yi’s shoulder, "Since you love her so much, why not just marry her."

"Of course I want to marry her. From the moment I met her, I’ve wanted to marry her." Zhao Yi said excitedly.

Liu Zixuan looked at his phone, "If we calculate, it’s almost the New Year, so let’s hold the wedding this year. With a little effort, you could even have a chubby boy next year!"

Zhao Yi blushed at his words: "Brother Xuan, I have no parents and no other relatives, just the few brothers here. You are my closest family. Whatever the date, however we do it, you guys will help me out." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

"I think that’s a great idea." Jiang Yunxuan immediately said, "We just returned victoriously from the Witch Country, and then we can hold a grand wedding. It’s definitely a double blessing. It’s a rare opportunity. I’ll be the best man then!"

"I’ll be the best man too!" Tiger laughed and chimed in.

"Sure, you can all be the best men!" Zhao Yi said.

"When and where will it be held?" Gu Yu asked.

Liu Zixuan rubbed his chin and pondered, "Since Zhao Yi and Nannan met in the Land of the Far North, and they have been through so much together here, let’s talk to Nannan’s family and hold the ceremony right here. We are people of the Jianghu, so place doesn’t matter as much. Later, if things settle down, you can have another ceremony back in Ghost Wood City if you like."

"I’ll go with Brother Xuan’s plan." Zhao Yi nodded.

"Who would’ve thought that out of the six of us, the quietest Zhao Yi would be the first to have a wedding." Tiger grinned widely, "But I’m really happy for you."

Zhao Yi blushed, scratching his head, not knowing how to describe it, as if any moment, he’d bring his bride home.

All the way, with their joking and laughing, none of them felt the time drag. Just as they finished chatting, the plane began to descend.

...

Xinzhou Qingyun County, in the Land of the Far North.

Everyone knows that the Land of the Far North is located in the Star Sea Plateau area, an expansive and barren land that’s quite broken.

Besides being vast and barren, it’s also poor!

Especially Qingyun County, as Zhao Yi puts it, it’s situated at the border between the Star Sea and Wang Country. Skirmishes occur here, causing most young people to move away, leaving residents living day-to-day.

After exiting the airport, everyone took a taxi together to the county town.

Jiang Yunxuan took a breath of fresh air and said, "Old Zhao, it doesn’t seem as poor as you said."

"This is the best county in the whole city. Nannan’s home is quite a bit further, in the northern mountain area. What you’re seeing is the affluent part. Once you get into that town, you’ll find out what true poverty is."

"How poor can it get?" Jiang Yunxuan, born into a wealthy family, naturally couldn’t relate and was curious.

Zhao Yi thought for a moment and laughed, "You’ll find out when you get there. I bet a young master like you will be unaccustomed!"

"Alright, enough talk, let’s go see it." With Zhao Yi, they boarded a simple bus headed for Nannan’s home and set off directly...
