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

"I know where the Military Annihilation Tiger Talisman is, it's right here in the city."

"As long as we get the Military Annihilation Tiger Talisman and command the tens of thousands of vengeful spirits to follow your orders, you will have the chance to leave this city."

Zhu Li was slightly startled upon hearing this.

The hope she had not dared to harbor suddenly burst forth at the sight of a glimmer of escape.

If she could really obtain the Military Annihilation Tiger Talisman and command tens of thousands of vengeful spirits... With these spirits scouting the path, she might really be able to escape the fog and return to the mortal world...

Realizing this, a trace of joy appeared on Zhu Li's face.

But after the surprise, as she looked at the youth with the smiling face, she sank into hesitation again.

It wasn't that she didn't want to leave, but Zhu Li once again felt the heavy weight of a favor.

And this time, the favor was even greater.

Not only had he imparted teachings and helped her to leave, but he had also bestowed upon her the Military Annihilation Tiger Talisman—a divine object capable of commanding tens of thousands of vengeful spirits, all just to help her escape the mist and return to the human world...

At this moment, Fairy Zhu Li felt somewhat lost and at a loss.

The favor was so great she didn't know how to repay it.

Such a big favor... It felt like only in death could she repay it...

The Glass Immortal Maiden was slightly at a loss, feeling her thoughts in disarray.

Luckily, their cooperation was already seamless, and they easily defeated all the demigod souls in the city, refining these powerful souls into Treasured Soul Beads.

In the end, the ground in the city cracked open just as the mysterious person had said, and the source of the vengeful spirits sealed beneath kept surging out incessantly.

Zhu Li and her companion were prepared, though, using the Treasured Soul Beads to purify the malevolent spirits, swiftly purifying all the evil ghosts that emerged from below.

Even the ghost kings that crawled out last were completely purified by the Treasured Soul Beads of all their vengeful energy.

After the purification of their malevolence and the restoration of their senses, they all stood quietly outside the grand hall in the empty square.

They looked up silently, observing the space above.

They were once demigods of the city, but now, as vengeful spirits, they were dead, with only residual thoughts remaining.

After the purification of their vengeful energy, they turned into those stupefied, bewildered souls, even losing the instinct to attack and destroy.

As Zhu Li raised the Military Annihilation Tiger Talisman and displayed it to the throng of residual souls, only then did they subconsciously prostrate and declare their loyalty.

And atop the platform, Zhu Li, witnessing the worship of ten thousand ghosts, had a somewhat dazed look in her eyes.

...She had really subdued the vengeful spirits.

Even at that moment, she had an unreal feeling.

Everything was going too smoothly, so smoothly it felt like a dream.

The Glass Immortal Maiden hesitated and looked towards the enigmatic immortal by her side.

"Sir, could you please tell me your name? If Zhu Li can one day break free of the mist and return to the human world, I shall find you, toil before you like a horse or dog, and expend all efforts as servitude, to repay your great kindness," she said earnestly and sincerely.

Although finding the way out in the mist would take a long time, far more than a day or two, regardless of whether it would take ten years or a hundred... as long as she returned to the human world, she would undoubtedly seek out the sir!

Zhu Li's eyes were filled with unwavering determination.

But the mysterious gentleman merely smiled wryly and shook his head, "There's no need to search for me. You won't be able to find me, and I don't need you to repay the favor."

"If the fairy can escape from the cage and return to the human world, using these tens of thousands of residual spirits well, and preventing them from causing chaos in the world, that would be enough for me."

The mysterious gentleman seemed ready to leave.

Zhu Li hurriedly spoke to keep him, "I still do not know the gentleman's real name."

The mysterious person waived his hand and said, "Just call me Nan Hua, the old immortal."

However, it was an obviously assumed name, and Zhu Li could sense the mystery man's evasion and flippancy.

This gentleman had no intention of accepting her gratitude, even giving her a false name.

Zhu Li, with a flash, earnestly blocked the mysterious person's path and bowed deeply in a grave salute, "Please, sir, reveal to me your true name."

Zhu Li inexplicably had an intuition that if she could not obtain the gentleman's real name now, she would never be able to find him again.

Therefore, she impolitely forced a stop and wouldn't allow the gentleman to leave.

Seeing the dragon goddess take such a serious stance to block his way, the mysterious man felt somewhat helpless.

"Didn't I say it? My name is Nan Hua the Elder Immortal," he said.

"Uh... Zhuang Zi? Zhuang Zhou?"

Despite being a possessor of Great Divine Power, this mysterious gentleman seemed cheerful and frivolous, showing none of the loftiness typical of such powerful beings.

He gave several false names to the insistent Zhu Li blocking his path.

Finally, seeing that the dragon goddess would not budge, he scratched his head and said reluctantly.

"None of these will do? It can't possibly be…uh…"

The mysterious man hesitated before saying, "My name is Li Muyang, and this is absolutely my real name... Can I go now?"

As the mysterious man revealed his true name, Zhu Li's heart suddenly relaxed.

Her intuition told her that this time, the name was real.

Realizing this, Zhu Li smiled gently and finally stepped aside, saying to Li Muyang,

"Zhu Li will remember, I will never forget mister's real name."

"If one day I break free from the Misty Sea, I will definitely seek out mister!"

Li Muyang, huh? Such an ordinary name.

This gentleman always managed to surprise her; she had thought his name would be more domineering and mysterious...

The dragon goddess wore a light smile.

The mist around her had already dispersed, clearly revealing her sweet smile.

The self-proclaimed Li Muyang glanced at her, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "It'd be strange if you could find me."

After he spoke, a wisp of green smoke drifted from his body and quickly vanished into the mist.

The dragon goddess watched the direction in which the gentleman had left, and subconsciously touched her face.

The look he gave her was not the indifferent disregard of a powerful being who had transcended earthly affairs, but one of appreciation.

It seemed the gentleman quite liked her appearance...

For some reason, realizing this made Zhu Li feel a bit shy.

She subconsciously covered her flushed face and murmured, "I always feel that this gentleman is not very old…"

He might be someone of her own age...

Meanwhile, outside the Misty Sea.

Everyone standing by the shore could clearly see that the surging mist that had churned over the sea for many days suddenly stilled.

The cold aura that had continually spilled out to the shore with the Misty Sea winds also abruptly ceased.

The mystic fog that had enveloped the entire sea became abruptly quiet as if everything before had been an illusion and the Misty Sea had never roiled.

In the Tianyuan Dynasty, Tengzhou Prefecture.

The Glass Immortal Maiden and Shen Tujing stood on the shore, uncertainly watching the suddenly stilled mist on the sea, feeling the disappearance of the abnormal aura in the air.

Shen Tujing said in surprise, "What's going on? Why has it suddenly become quiet?"

"Did the monster in the mist fall asleep or something?"

Shen Tujing was puzzled.

The Glass Immortal Maiden looked up at the endless fog in the distance; the white vast fog stretched between heaven and earth like a grey-white wall dividing the world.

For some reason, she suddenly thought of someone.

A man who was similarly mysterious, and who had made an astounding appearance and then vanished without a trace—a Nameless constable.

Although these two events seemed unrelated, she subconsciously connected them.

Both were odd occurrences that emerged and disappeared abruptly, leaving no trace in the world...

Where might that esteemed Nameless be at this moment?
