Upon hearing this, Fu Changling hesitated for a moment, casting a glance at Qin Yan. Noticing his indecision, Qin Yan encouraged, "Go ahead."

With that, Qin Yan turned to Fu Yushu and stated, "I'll stay here with Lord Lin. Should anything arise, I'll keep you informed."

"That's even better." Fu Yushu turned to Fu Changling and said, "Let's go now, Changling Xiōng."

"Ah, hold off," Fu Changling responded, somewhat bewildered. "Didn't I not agree to this yet?"

"Your Shīxiōng has given approval," Fu Yushu exclaimed, pulling Fu Changling to his feet with excitement. "Let's go."

Fu Yushu inexplicably ushered Fu Changling out. Before leaving, he turned and told Qin Yan, "Shīxiōng, make sure to keep in touch with me!"

While Fu Yushu whisked Fu Changling away, Qin Yan couldn't suppress a smile.

Fu Yushu and Fu Changling playfully engage in antics, their voices trailing off into the distance. "Hey, don't drag me! Yushu Xiōng, hold on, dropped something here. Fu Yushu, slow down, what's the rush?!"

Seeing Fu Changling being dragged away, Qin Yan returned to his seat, casually adjusted his clothes, and sat down. He closed his eyes in meditation, resting his hands on his knees in a graceful flower-plucking gesture.

Fu Yushu placed Fu Changling on the swift boat, heading towards the location where the formation was to be set up. Twirling his small fan, he sighed and lamented, "Yushu Xiōng, your wedding is in seven days; there's no need to be in such a hurry."

"Better sooner than later," Fu Yushu chuckled, "to steer clear of any potential mishaps."

"What's got you worried?" Fu Changling burst into laughter. With a lowered head, Fu Yushu replied softly, "Ah Chen has been residing in the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace for a long time, and she's concerned about potential conflicts regarding the Kingdom of Le."

"Oh?" Fu Changling lifted his eyes to meet Fu Yushu's gaze. "What kind of conflict do you expect to occur?"

"Ah Chen would most likely convey the matters concerning the Kingdom of Le directly to the Palace Leader. But the Palace Leader may opt to avoid involvement and instead make up excuses to appease Ah Chen instead. Since Ah Chen has been in the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace for a long time, she has steadfastly adhered to the palace's rules. If the Palace Leader opts not to intervene, so be it. However, should she come across anyone else involved in this matter, she might find it challenging to refrain from giving them a piece of her mind, potentially resulting in conflicts."

Hearing Fu Yushu's words, Fu Changling nodded before realizing, "Doesn't that mean my Shīxiōng is also susceptible to conflicts there?!"

With a somewhat puzzled expression, Fu Yushu asked, "What's up with your Shīxiōng? Does he share Lin Chen's flair for admonishing others in the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace?"

Fu Changling: "..."

He really does. After all, Qin Yan was the senior disciple in the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace, and hadn't he admonished a good number of people in the past?

Fu Changling cleared his throat following a brief pause and asked, "Um, who do you suppose is leading this initiative regarding the group of people in the Hongmeng Heavenly Palace cultivating spiritual energy core refinement? The entire Hongmeng Heavenly Palace can't be complicit in this, can it?"

Fu Yushu said nothing, twirling his fan, and murmured in a subdued tone, "This matter... it's hard to ascertain. The Fu and Lin Clans shouldn't have... right?"
