The journey towards Caiyi Town was swift as they flew using their swords. Naturally, Lan Zhan drew Bichen and took Wei Ying with him, considering his recent recovery. Wei Ying chuckled at the protective nature of his Alpha and secretly enjoyed it.

Back in Yunmeng, no matter how sick he became, Wei Ying never used anyone else's sword to ride. He always insisted on using Suibian, refusing any offers. But now, he agreed without hesitation, simply because it was his Lan Zhan. He relaxed in Lan Zhan's arms, feeling secure and cherished.

As they flew over the scenic landscapes, Wei Ying couldn't help but reminisce about their journey together so far. Despite the trials and tribulations, moments like these made everything worthwhile. The gentle breeze, the comforting embrace of Lan Zhan, and the beauty of the world beneath them all combined to create a perfect moment of tranquility.

"Lan Zhan," Wei Ying called softly, looking up at his Alpha.

"Hmm?" Lan Zhan responded, his eyes briefly meeting Wei Ying's before focusing back on the path ahead.

"I never thought I'd say this, but I actually like flying on Bichen," Wei Ying admitted, a playful smile on his lips.

Lan Zhan's lips twitched into a rare, small smile. "Because it's Bichen or because it's me?" he asked, his tone teasing.

"Both," Wei Ying replied with a grin, snuggling closer.

They soon reached Caiyi Town, descending gracefully and landing in a secluded area to avoid drawing too much attention. Lan Zhan carefully set Wei Ying down, ensuring he was steady on his feet before they began to explore the town together. The peaceful market, the polite chatter of vendors, and the vibrant array of goods on display created a lively atmosphere that contrasted sharply with the serene, secluded world of the Cloud Recesses.

Wei Ying's eyes sparkled with curiosity and excitement as they walked through the market. Lan Zhan stayed close, his protective instincts on high alert but also enjoying seeing Wei Ying's joy.

"Lan Zhan, look at these loquats!" Wei Ying exclaimed, pointing to a vendor's stall. "They're my favorite."

Lan Zhan nodded and purchased a few, handing them to Wei Ying, who accepted them with a bright smile. They continued their exploration, savoring the simple pleasures of the market and each other's company.

As they made their way through the town, Lan Zhan kept an eye out for any signs of danger or suspicious activity. He was determined to protect Wei Ying at all costs and ensure their time together was safe and enjoyable.

Their journey in Caiyi Town, though brief, was a reminder of the bond they shared and the lengths Lan Zhan would go to for Wei Ying's happiness and safety.

Lan Zhan watched Wei Ying with a gentle smile, buying everything Wei Ying pointed out and indulging him with both love and money. When Wei Ying felt hungry, they found a less crowded inn and settled down. Wei Ying eagerly ordered all his favorite dishes and an Emperor's Smile, making sure to include a few less spicy dishes for Lan Zhan.

The innkeeper took their order and left them alone, allowing them a moment of peace. Wei Ying's curiosity got the better of him. "Lan Zhan, why is alcohol prohibited in Cloud Recesses?" he asked, rubbing his nose with his forefinger, a sign that he was deeply pondering the question. "I mean, the whole cultivation world drinks alcohol for enjoyment, and Gusu's Emperor's Smile is the best alcohol. Still, the Gusu Lan Clan has prohibited it. Isn't it weird?"
