Master Guanchun picked up the wine cup and said to Lin Xiaodong: "Taoist Master Lin, we fought against Yanshan Pavilion last time. Thank you very much for coming to my rescue and saving my life."
Lin Xiaodong also picked up the wine bowl: "We are all members of the Guanghan Qiu Dali Country. We should share the same hatred and resist foreign enemies. Master, there is no need to be polite."
Master Guanchun nodded: "Take this opportunity to offer a toast to Taoist Master Lin."
They each took a sip.
Gong Chunzi said loudly to everyone: "This is the right thing to do. We are all immortals in the Guanghanqiu Great Gift Country. Defending against foreign enemies is the top priority. All other grievances and grudges should be put aside first."
Fairy Miaoming took the opportunity to say: "My father thinks so too. The immortals of Shannan Dao shoulder the important task of resisting the forces of Guzhu State Banquet Shanting. We, the immortals of Congling, should give our full support."
After listening to Fairy Miaoming's words, Gong Chunzi understood what Master Lei Lie meant, nodded, picked up the wine bowl, and said to Lin Xiaodong: "I also thanked Master Lin for saving his life."
Lin Xiaodong and Gong Junzi took another sip.
Fairy Miaoming picked up the wine glass, turned to look at Wang Xing'an, and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wang, for your care and support in the past. Please take care of me in the future."
Wang Xing'an took a sip and said calmly: "Fairy, you're welcome."
The immortals were gradually getting drunk, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Fairy Miaoming finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded when she saw that her hard work was not in vain.
There was only the last bit left in the wine jar, and the immortals divided it among themselves. They drank some other wine and ate some fruits and delicacies until dusk.
Fairy Miaoming, Miaoweizi, and Lin Xiaodong sent people outside the mountain gate.
Fairy Miaoming bowed her hand to Gong Junzi and said, "Master, walk slowly."
Gong Chunzi looked at Fairy Miaoming, then at Lin Xiaodong, and said, "Fairy, please tell your father when you get back, that we, the immortals of Shannan Dao, hope to live in harmony with the immortals of Congling."
Fairy Miaoming nodded: "My father also doesn't want the immortals in the two places to kill each other."
Gong Chunzi turned to look at Lin Xiaodong and said: "Taoist Master Lin, if the forces of the Lone Bamboo Kingdom invade again in the future, please come to help."
Lin Xiaodong promised: "Don't worry, real person, Lin will never stand idly by."
Master Guanchun raised his head, stared at Lin Xiaodong intently, and said: "My previous words were very offending, I hope the Taoist Master will not take offense."
Lin Xiaodong replied: "Master, don't take it to heart. We are both colleagues of Guang Hanqiu, and we will have to deal with Lone Bamboo Kingdom together in the future."
Master Gong Chunzi and Master Guanchun took their leave, and Wang Xing'an and Han Mingzhi followed them.
Immortals from Shannan Dao gathered around and said to Fairy Miaoming, "Thanks to Fairy for convening the Seven Fragrance Meeting today. Otherwise, the relationship between the immortals in the two places would become more and more tense, and we might not be able to be neighbors."
Fairy Miaoming saluted: "Thank you all my neighbors for coming to support me. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to do this today."
The immortals also dispersed one after another.
Only Fairy Miaoming, Miaoweizi and Lin Xiaodong were left outside the mountain gate.
Miaoweizi bowed to Lin Xiaodong: "I offended you a lot when we just met, Taoist Lin, don't worry about it."
Lin Xiaodong chuckled: "Fairy, you are serious. We are all colleagues in Congling. Please take care of me in the future."
Miao Weizi praised: "Taoist Master Lin's wonderful method, it is really eye-opening and breathtaking when I see it today."
Lin Xiaodong said: "As a disciple of Linggu Zhenren, the fairy must have extraordinary Taoism. If there is an opportunity someday, I would like to learn from each other."
Miaoweizi nodded: "Definitely next time."
Fairy Miaoming raised her head and said affectionately, "Thank you, Taoist Lin, for coming to support me."
Lin Xiaodong curled his lips and shook his head: "I didn't help much, but I annoyed Wang Xing'an and almost ruined the fairy's important event."
Fairy Miaoming chuckled: "Then I'm willing to let you come too."
Lin Xiaodong bowed: "Then Lin will take his leave first."
He cupped his hand and disappeared.
Miaoweizi helped Fairy Miaoming clean up, and they whispered some words together before saying goodbye and going back to the mountain.
Fairy Miaoming's Seven Fragrance Conference was successfully held, and the effect was better than expected. Although it offended Wang Xing'an, Master Gong Chunzi and Master Guanchun came.
Gong Chunzi is not the nominal leader of the immortals of Shannan Dao now, but coming together with Master Guanchun already has enough weight.
The conflict between the Congling Immortals and the Shannan Dao Immortals temporarily eased, and Gong Chunzi was able to recuperate and concentrate on guarding against the Lone Bamboo Kingdom.
However, after the death of Huai Weizi, Yanshan Pavilion fell into chaos and temporarily lost the ability to invade Shannan Road. The immortals of Shannan Road were saved.
The news that Fairy Miaoming held the Seven Fragrance Meeting gradually reached Lingdaozi's ears. Hearing that Lin Xiaodong also went there, she couldn't sit still.
At dusk that day, Lin Xiaodong was sitting quietly in the palace. He saw clouds floating in the distance and went out to greet him.
The person who came was none other than Ling Daozi, wearing a fiery red fairy dress that competed with the sunset.
Lin Xiaodong bowed: "It turns out the fairy is here."
Ling Daozi came down, raised his head and smiled at Lin Xiaodong: "Come here to see you."
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "The fairy is interested."
The two of them entered the palace and stood talking under the osmanthus tree in front of the palace's verandah.
The osmanthus tree is in the season of falling flowers, and the fallen flowers are in full bloom.
Lingdaozi asked: "I heard that Fairy Miaoming held a Seven Fragrance Meeting?"
Lin Xiaodong didn't think much, nodded and said: "The fairy brewed a jar of fine wine, called Qixiang Drink, and invited her neighbors on Shannan Road to taste it."
Ling Daozi blinked his eyes and said innocently: "Aren't you going too?"
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "I, Miaowei Zi, Gong Chunzi from Shannan Dao, Master Guanchun, Gong Chunzi's disciple Wang Xing'an, and some immortals from Shannan Dao."
Lingdaozi raised his head and said with an ambiguous smile: "So, among us Congling Immortals, Fairy Miaoming only invited you?"
Lin Xiaodong spread his hands: "There is also Miaowei."
Ling Daozi shook his head: "I am a good best friend, but you are an outsider."
Lin Xiaodong almost laughed out loud, thinking that I am not an outsider.
"The fairy said that Wang Xing'an was pestering him, so he invited me to go."
Ling Daozi raised his eyebrows and said, "They're all excuses. I think they like you."
Lin Xiaodong pretended to be confused: "Stop talking nonsense."
Lingdaozi was reluctant: "Let me ask you, why did Fairy Miaoming come to you before?"
Lin Xiaodong blinked: "How do you know?"
Lingdaozi spread his hands: "We are all gods. Who can deceive anyone if there is any trouble?"
Lin Xiaodong nodded, thinking so, and replied: "The fairy only came to see me once and gave me a moon pearl."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the height of the pillar in the courtyard: "It's the one on top."
Ling Daozi shook his head: "Don't you understand what Fairy Miaoming means when she comes to you?"
How could Lin Xiaodong not understand? He shook his head and asked, "What do you mean?"
Lingdaozi spread his hands and stretched his neck: "She is the daughter of Master Lei Lie. Of course she is looking for you to have a good relationship with you."
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "No wonder you want to give me something."
Ling Daozi was a little anxious: "No! Why don't you understand? She wants to be with you."
