Xu Ruyan stood to the side, smiling as she looked at Yuan Yin, her heart filled with love.
He took out his paintbrush and painted the scene. In the painting, Yuan Yin and the old woman were chatting and laughing by the river, with the beautiful scenery of the Jiangnan water town in the background. He wanted to preserve this beautiful moment forever.
After leaving Jiangnan, they traveled to the northwestern desert.
The desert scenery is magnificent and vast, with yellow sand stretching to the horizon.
They rode camels, slowly making their way through the desert, feeling the scorching sun and the blowing sand.
At night, they rested by the campfire, gazing at the starry sky. Xu Ruyan pointed to the stars in the sky and told Yuan Yin the legends of various constellations.
During their travels, Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan's feelings for each other deepened. They supported and accompanied each other, facing the difficulties and challenges of their journey together.
Their story gradually spread across the land of Yechao, becoming a beautiful tale that inspires more young people to bravely pursue their love and dreams.
As time went by, Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan's footprints spread all over the north and south of Yechao.
They listened to the birdsong in the mountains and forests, and chased the ebb and flow of the tides at the seaside. Every scene became a testament to their love.
One day, they heard that there was a mysterious valley on the southwestern border, where spring was eternal, flowers bloomed in abundance, and many ancient and moving legends were told.
Filled with curiosity and anticipation, they set off towards the valley.
Upon entering the valley, just as the rumors had said, colorful butterflies fluttered about, streams murmured, and exotic flowers and plants exuded a captivating fragrance.
Deep in the valley, they discovered an ancient temple, its walls covered with obscure and incomprehensible scripts and patterns.
Yuan Yin was quite interested in these ancient ruins, so Xu Ruyan accompanied her to explore the temple carefully, trying to decipher its mysteries.
Just as they were engrossed in their music, they suddenly heard a melodious flute tune.
Following the direction of the flute sound, one could see an elderly man with white hair sitting under an ancient tree playing the flute.
The old man's eyes were deep and wise, as if he understood everything in the world.
Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan stepped forward and bowed respectfully. The old man nodded slightly, put down his flute, and slowly said, "You two have come here from afar, you must be destined to be here. This valley is a sacred place from ancient times, containing mysterious power and hiding a secret about the fate of the Night Dynasty."
Upon hearing this, the two were greatly alarmed and hurriedly sought advice from the old man.
The old man stood up and led them to a cave behind the temple.
Strange light shimmered in the cave, where a huge stone tablet stood.
The old man pointed to the inscription on the stone tablet and said, "This records that the Night Dynasty will face a great crisis, and only those who uphold true love and justice can save the world at the critical moment."
Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan exchanged a glance, and they saw determination and resolve in each other's eyes.
Xu Ruyan said, "Senior, no matter what the crisis is, we will not back down and will do our best to protect the Night Dynasty."
The old man smiled and nodded: "Your courage is commendable, but you must be fully prepared, as the road ahead is still long."
After leaving the valley, Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan felt heavy-hearted and filled with a sense of mission.
They are no longer just lovers immersed in their love journey, but also guardians of the destiny of the Night Dynasty.
Later in their journey, they arrived at an ancient town.
It just so happened that a grand flower festival was being held in the city, and the streets and alleys were filled with all kinds of rare flowers, colorful and fragrant.
Yuan Yin was overjoyed and pulled Xu Ruyan through the sea of flowers.
However, they noticed that although the people in the city had smiles on their faces, there was a hint of worry in their eyes.
It turns out that a crisis was hidden behind this flower show.
There was a local tyrant in the city who attempted to use the flower festival as a pretext to extort money from the people and seize their land and property.
If any people do not obey him, they will be persecuted by him.
After learning about this, Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan decided to help the people.
They first cleverly exposed the bully's evil deeds during the flower fair, which aroused public outrage.
Subsequently, Xu Ruyan, with her wisdom and resourcefulness, joined forces with the righteous people in the city to set a trap, exposing the true nature of the bully in front of everyone.
Enraged, the bully attempted to resist, but under Yuan Yin's command, everyone worked together to capture the bully and his henchmen.
The people of the city were deeply grateful to Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan, and they all brought out the best things in their homes to entertain them.
However, they politely declined the people's kindness and only accepted some flowers as a memento of this experience.
Afterwards, they arrived at a mysterious forest.
As soon as we entered the forest, we were enveloped in a thick fog, making it difficult to discern directions.
Suddenly, a group of bandits dressed in strange clothes emerged from all around and surrounded them.
These bandits had fierce eyes, but also a hint of hesitation, as if they were wary of their identities.
It turned out that this group of bandits had heard of Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan's deeds and knew that they were not ordinary travelers.
Yuan Yin remained calm and attempted to talk to the bandits, while Xu Ruyan discreetly placed her hand on the hilt of her sword in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
During the conversation, they learned that the bandits were originally villagers from the surrounding area who had turned to banditry because they could no longer bear the exploitation by corrupt local officials.
Yuan Yin felt pity and promised to help them punish the corrupt officials and restore justice to them.
The bandits were skeptical, but decided to give them a chance anyway.
So Yuan Yin and Xu Ruyan changed their plans and went to a nearby county town.
