After a simple lunch, they parted ways.
Han Ya and Wei Tao headed south, while Lu An and Beauty Yang headed deeper into Ri Liang Mountain.
Lu An and Beauty Yang slowly advanced in the forest, one in front and one behind. They did not use their power to rush. It was winter, and Ri Liang Mountain was covered in snow. Walking on the snow-white road, the environment was very quiet.
Lu An wore a cloak and walked in front. Beauty Yang followed behind him, her gaze never leaving him.
"It's almost the new year." Lu An walked in front and suddenly said without looking back.
Beauty Yang was startled when she heard this, then nodded and said, "There are still three days."
"You've left Purple Lake City for a few months." Lu An continued to walk in front. His voice became even quieter because of the snow, and said, "Let's go back and spend the new year with Yang Mu."
"What about master?" Beauty Yang looked at Lu An's back and asked.
"I'll also go to Purple Lake City with you, but I won't be spending the new year with you." Lu An said softly, "You can also break through during the new year. After the new year, we'll leave and go somewhere else. "
"Where to?" Beauty Yang asked.
"I don't know yet." Lu An's footsteps rustled as he stepped on the snow, and said, "I'll find my destination during the new year."
Beauty Yang did not say anything after hearing this. The two of them, one in front and one behind, arrived in front of the Sacred Fire Gate in the evening. Looking at the burning Sacred Fire Gate in front of him, Lu An's expression became even calmer.
"Let's go." Lu An said without looking back.
With that, Lu An took the lead and walked in, followed by Beauty Yang.

Night, Purple Lake City.
Because of the new year, every house in Purple Lake City was decorated with lanterns and streamers. In addition, there were tall buildings here, causing the lights to reach from the ground to the sky even at night.
Compared to Meteor Trail City, the night here was even more beautiful and had a dreamy feeling. Even at night, there were still a lot of people on the streets. Everyone was admiring this beautiful scene. Such a night scene was rare even in the entire continent.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Yang Mu stood on the highest floor. From here, he could see the entire Purple Lake City at night.
It was almost the new year. It was supposed to be a joyous occasion, but the City Lord's Mansion was exceptionally cold and cheerless.
"Miss." Xiao Lan walked over from behind, stood beside Yang Mu, and said softly, "It's cold here, there's no stove, let's go back."
Hearing this, Yang Mu turned his head to look at Xiao Lan. In the end, he shook his head and continued to look out of the window.
Looking at the Young Miss, Xiao Lan's heart ached. Over the past few months, the young mistress had been concentrating on handling the affairs of the Purple Lake City. She managed the Purple Lake City well, and even the subordinates were full of praise for the young mistress.
The people who originally thought that Miss only knew how to play and did not know how to manage Purple Lake City were now completely convinced by Miss. The Young Mistress's status in Purple Lake City was already extremely high.
However, only she knew how much effort the Young Miss had put in to manage Purple Lake City. He flipped through the information day and night to see how other people managed the city. Not only that, the Young Miss's cultivation did not fall behind. The current her was about to break through to Level 3 Heavenly Master.
If the Young Miss did not leave, she naturally would not leave either. She held a cloak in her hand and stood quietly behind the Young Miss. Whenever the Young Miss needed it, she would hand it over immediately.
Just like this, the two of them continued to stand there for a long time. Until late at night, a voice suddenly rang out in the empty pavilion.
"Why are you still standing here so late?"
When the voice appeared, Yang Mu and Xiao Lan were both stunned. Yang Mu immediately turned his head and excitedly looked over. The person who appeared behind him, if it was not his mother, who else could it be?
"Mother!" Yang Mu immediately jumped up happily, ran in front of Beauty Yang, and threw himself into her embrace.
Beauty Yang looked at her daughter in her embrace, and a rare smile appeared on her face. After not seeing her for a few months, she also missed her daughter very much.
After a long time, Yang Mu came out from Beauty Yang's embrace. The two equally beautiful women stood together. Now, Yang Mu looked more and more like Beauty Yang.
"Mother, are you still leaving this time?" Yang Mu looked at Beauty Yang and asked excitedly.
"I still have to leave." Beauty Yang smiled gently, and dotingly stroked her daughter's hair, and said, "But this time, I will stay for a while longer."
Hearing his mother's words, Yang Mu's heart inevitably felt a sense of loss. But no matter what, his mother still came back. In this case, she would not be alone for the new year.
Soon, Yang Mu and Beauty Yang returned to their residence together. On the way, Yang Mu thought for a while, and asked his mother, "Mother, do you know where Lu An is?"
Beauty Yang's heart moved when she heard this, but there were no ripples on the surface, and said, "I don't know. Why, you still haven't forgotten him?"
"No." After knowing the answer, Yang Mu seemed a little depressed. She lowered her head slightly, and said softly, "I still think of him, especially when I have nothing to do."
"…"
Beauty Yang looked at her daughter's appearance, and her heart could not bear it. However, her master told her not to tell Yang Mu her whereabouts. She could not disobey her master's order and not say anything.
"Don't think about him." Beauty Yang smiled, and said softly, "I will accompany you more during this period of time."
"Alright." Yang Mu heard this, and immediately revealed a big smile, and said happily.

At the other end of Purple Lake City, on the top floor of a tall building.
Lu An stood in the room on the top floor. There was a stove in the room, and it was warm. Through the window, there was a world with cold wind outside. Lu An did not cultivate, and just looked outside calmly.
His master had completely disappeared, and he felt a burst of loneliness.
In this world, ever since his parents died, there were very few people who could make him reveal his inner thoughts. His master could be considered as half a person, and could let him reveal his secret side. However, his master was his master after all, and he could not say everything.
More importantly, his master was already a close relative to him. After his parents died, he had always regarded his master as his elder. Now that his master had also left, he felt a burst of loneliness.
There was another person that he regarded as a close relative.
Fu Yu.
He would always think of Fu Yu's figure, and the bits and pieces that he spent with her. Last year during the new year, he spent four years with her. And this year, this kind of longing did not decrease at all, but increased instead.
Fu Yu was the only person in this world that he cared about.
He did not know where Fu Yu was at this moment, and what she was doing. His master had said that he still had a chance to meet Fu Yu again, but the prerequisite was that his strength had increased enough to make the entire Eight Ancient Continents pay attention to him.
Fu Yu's family must be a super colossus, and it could be even stronger than Sengoku. Although his current strength was already amazing in the outside world, compared to Sengoku, he was pitifully weak.
At this moment, in a place far away from the Eight Ancient Continents, in a beautiful dreamland world.
A young girl sat on a high tower, calmly looking at the colorful water surface, the exotic beasts flying in the sky, and the whales swimming freely in the water.
After returning home, Fu Yu's favorite thing to do was to sit here, calmly looking at the scenery as if she could see the other side of the world.
At this moment, a beautiful woman flew to her side from afar. Looking at Fu Yu, who was sitting on the high tower, the beautiful woman felt heartache.
It had been almost two years. Since Fu Yu had come back, she had never seen her smile. She had become more isolated, and she did not want to get close to the crowd.
Although she didn't know what Fu Yu had experienced in the outside world, the outside world was the outside world after all. The more she interacted with the people outside, the lower her status would be. Only the big families like this place were qualified to be Fu Yu's friends.
The beautiful woman organized her thoughts, walked to Fu Yu, squatted, and said softly, "Little Yu, it's time to eat."
Fu Yu didn't even turn her head when she heard the woman. "Ask someone to send a portion to my room."
"But it's okay if you don't go there. It's the New Year, so you have to eat with the others. Many disciples from other clans have come here to see you! "The beautiful woman smiled and squinted her eyes.
However, Fu Yu grew even quieter after hearing that.
"I told you, I'm not going." This time, Fu Yu finally moved. She turned her head, looking at the beautiful woman. "Tell those ridiculous people to give up."
