Luo Chen and Qing Shuang placed the five elemental gems in the order of water, earth, fire, mind, and wind, and then stood in the center of them.

Luo Chen began to chant the ancient spell, while Qing Shuang used her energy to guide the power of the five gems.

The power of the five elements began to intertwine, forming a dazzling halo.

As the spell progressed, the halo gradually expanded, enveloping the entire swamp.

The evil force felt threatened and began to struggle frantically, trying to break the seal.

But Luo Chen and Qing Shuang did not retreat at all. They continued to chant the spell, exerting the power of the five elements to the extreme.

Finally, the evil power was completely sealed, and the light of the five gems gradually dimmed, turning into a solid sealing barrier.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang fell to the ground exhausted, but their eyes were filled with the joy of victory.

"We succeeded, Qingshuang." Luo Chen said breathlessly.

Qing Shuang smiled and nodded, "Yes, we did it."

The swamp land will return to peace and tranquility from now on.

The two of them could now leave this place with complete peace of mind.

When they left, the two did not return to the city near the swamp.

Instead, he just left.

After all, Luo Chen was not familiar with the people in that city, so there was no need to say goodbye or anything.

"Luo Chen, where are we going?"

On a road about a hundred miles away from the swamp, Qingshuang asked in a low voice with some curiosity.

Luo Chen smiled, and then responded: "Didn't we pass by a peach forest when we came here?"

“The environment there is quite good.”

"I plan to stay there for a while."

After hearing this, Qingshuang's eyes flashed with surprise. She was also deeply impressed by the peach forest.

The peach blossoms there are in full bloom, like pink clouds, emitting a faint floral fragrance that makes people feel relaxed and happy.

She remembered Luo Chen once said when he passed by that the scenery there reminded him of the spring in his hometown.

“It’s a really nice place.”

Qing Shuang smiled and responded: "We can rest there for a while."

Luo Chen nodded, and they continued on their way, passing through green fields and crossing clear streams.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves and falls on them, making them warm and comfortable.

The two walked and talked, sharing every detail of this adventure and their aspirations for the future.

"Luo Chen, have you ever thought about what we should do next after we seal the evil forces?" Qingshuang suddenly asked.

Luo Chen was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Of course, I will practice everywhere, walk around, and then see if there is anything that needs help, and help out by the way."

After hearing this, Qing Shuang's eyes flashed with determination, "I think so too. This world needs more kind people. We can't stop."

The two smiled at each other, their hearts full of anticipation for the future.

They know that although the journey may be difficult, they will face all challenges together.

After several days of trekking, they finally arrived at the peach forest again.

The peach blossoms are still in full bloom, and the air is filled with a faint floral fragrance.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang found a clean place and sat down to rest.

"It's so beautiful here." Qingshuang closed her eyes and took a deep breath: "I feel completely relaxed."

Luo Chen nodded. He took out some dry food from the package and handed it to Qing Shuang: "Eat something first. We need to replenish our energy."

The two of them ate their dry food quietly, enjoying this moment of tranquility.

Suddenly, the sound of light footsteps broke the silence.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang stood up alertly and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

An old man in simple clothes walked slowly towards us. His face was covered with traces of time, but his eyes revealed a kind of peace and wisdom.

The old man walked up to Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, smiled and nodded.

"Two young men, you are from far away, right?" the old man asked.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other and nodded.

"Yes, we have just completed a mission and are now preparing to rest here for a while." Luo Chen replied.

After hearing this, the old man's eyes flashed with approval, "You look very extraordinary, and you exude an extraordinary aura."

Qing Shuang smiled slightly, "We just did what we thought was right."

The old man nodded, then took out a small jade bottle from his arms, "This is a little gift from me, I hope it will be helpful to you."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang took the jade bottle and felt a cool energy emanating from it.

They know it is a precious gift.

"Thank you, old sir." Luo Chen said gratefully.

The old man waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. The world needs young people like you. I hope you can continue to protect it."

After saying that, the old man turned and left, leaving Luo Chen and Qing Shuang in deep thought.

They know that this is not just a simple rest, but also a baptism of the soul.

They will continue their journey with the old man's blessing and protect this beautiful world.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang spent a few peaceful days in the peach forest. In addition to resting every day, they also helped the nearby villagers do things within their ability.

Their story spread among the villagers, and more and more people began to respect them and thank them for all they had done for the land.

One evening, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang sat under a peach tree, watching the sun gradually setting in the sky.

The sunset dyed half the sky red, it was breathtakingly beautiful.

"Qingshuang, have you ever thought about what would happen if we stopped traveling one day?" Luo Chen suddenly asked.

Qing Shuang was silent for a while, then replied softly: "Perhaps, we will find a quiet place and live a peaceful life, but no matter where we are, our hearts will be together."

Luo Chen nodded. He knew that no matter what the future held, as long as they were together, nothing was impossible.

They will continue to move forward and face it bravely no matter whether there is wind, rain or sunshine ahead.

As night fell, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang lit a bonfire in the peach forest and sat around it.

They shared stories with each other and their laughter echoed in the night air.

In this place where peach blossoms bloom, they found their spiritual home and each other's support.

As the days passed, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's life in the peach forest was simple and fulfilling.

They helped the villagers, learned local customs and habits, and gradually they felt that they had become a part of this place.

However, just as they were preparing to settle here, a letter from afar broke the tranquility.

This letter was sent to Luo Chen from the mayor of a city he had visited before.

At that time, he was still good friends with the city lord.

When we parted, I felt quite reluctant.

Just, I didn't expect
That guy actually knew that he was staying in this place. Similarly, Luo Chen was also a little curious about what his good friend would write to him.

"Since you are looking forward to it, then open it and take a look!"

Qingshuang said this with a smile.

Luo Chen gently opened the envelope. The handwriting on the letter was neat and familiar. It was written by the city lord himself.

In the letter, the city lord mentioned some changes that had taken place in the city and an upcoming grand celebration. He sincerely invited Luo Chen and Qing Shuang to attend.

The city lord wrote in the letter that he believed that Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's arrival would add brilliance to the celebration, and that he himself missed them very much.

Qing Shuang looked at Luo Chen's expression when he read the letter and asked curiously, "What does the letter say? Is there something important?"

Luo Chen raised his head, a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, "It was an invitation from the city lord. He hopes that we can go to a celebration."

After hearing this, Qing Shuang's eyes also showed a trace of nostalgia, "Then shall we go?"

Luo Chen thought for a moment, then replied with a smile: "Since he has invited us so kindly, how can we not go?"

Qingshuang nodded. She knew that Luo Chen also had a deep friendship with the city lord, and she herself was full of curiosity about that city.

So they decided to leave Taolin and head to that city.

Before leaving, they said goodbye to the villagers of Taolin. When the villagers learned that they were about to leave, they felt very reluctant to see them go.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang promised that they would definitely come back, and the villagers reluctantly let them go.

They set out on the road to the city, and along the way, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang talked about the upcoming celebration and their memories of the city. They recalled the interesting people they met there and the unforgettable experiences.

"Do you still remember the vendor selling candied haws? He was always so enthusiastic." Qingshuang said with a smile.

Luo Chen also smiled, "Of course I remember, his candied haws were so sweet and left a lasting aftertaste."

They continued to reminisce while moving forward, enjoying every moment of the journey.

After several days of trekking, they finally saw the outline of the city.

The city walls are tall and solid, with colorful flags and lanterns hung above the city gates, making it look festive.

The city gate was bustling with people coming and going. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang walked into the city and immediately felt the festive atmosphere.

They followed the instructions in the letter and arrived at the city lord's mansion.

When the city lord saw them, he immediately came over with a warm smile on his face.

"Luo Chen, Qingshuang, you are finally here! I have been waiting for a long time." The city lord said kindly.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang also responded with a smile, "We are also very happy to be able to participate in this celebration."

The city lord showed them around the mansion and briefed them on the arrangements for the celebration.

The celebration will be held in the evening with wonderful performances and a sumptuous dinner.

Under the arrangement of the city lord, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang rested in the mansion first.

They changed into the gorgeous clothes prepared for them by the city lord and prepared to attend the evening celebration.

As night falls, the celebration officially begins.

The square was brightly lit and bustling with people.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were led to the guest seats to enjoy the performance with the city lord.

The performers showed off their talents, some danced with swords, some played the flute, and some performed acrobatics. Every show was wonderful.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang watched with great interest and applauded from time to time.

At the dinner, there was a wide variety of delicious food. Luo Chen and Qing Shuang tasted the various delicacies and chatted happily with the city lord and other guests.

The celebration lasted until late at night, and Luo Chen and Qing Shuang returned to the mansion to rest.

They lay in bed, thinking back on the happy moments of the day, their hearts filled with gratitude.

"Qingshuang, what do you think of today's celebration?" Luo Chen asked.

Qing Shuang smiled and replied, "It's very beautiful. I have never participated in such a grand celebration."

Luo Chen nodded, "Yes, days like this are rare."

They know that although such good times are short, they will become the most precious treasure in their memories.

In a blink of an eye, time came to the second day.

In the early morning, when the sky is not completely bright yet.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang left the room and walked outside.

At this time, there were already many people selling things on both sides of the street.

The celebrations in the city would be quite lively for several days.

Therefore, Luo Chen did not plan to leave immediately.

He thought about staying in this city for a while and playing around.

When you get tired of it, you can leave.

"Sugar painting, sugar painting."

"Exquisite sugar painting, sir, would you like one?"

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang strolled along the streets in the early morning. The air was filled with the aroma of various foods and people's laughter.

They were attracted by a vendor selling sugar paintings, who was using syrup to paint various animal and floral patterns on a slate.

"Qingshuang, do you want to try it?" Luo Chen turned and asked Qingshuang.

A hint of excitement flashed in Qingshuang's eyes, "Of course, I haven't tried sugar painting yet."

Luo Chen bought an exquisite phoenix sugar painting from the vendor and handed it to Qingshuang.

Qingshuang took the sugar painting, took a careful bite, and a satisfied smile immediately appeared on her face.

"It's so sweet, Luo Chen, you should try it too." Qingshuang handed the sugar painting to Luo Chen.

Luo Chen smiled and shook his head, "You eat first, it's enough for me to watch you eat."

They continued to wander around the city, and Luo Chen noticed that Qingshuang was curious about every stall, so he decided to take her to experience more.

"Qingshuang, there are dolls for sale over there. Do you like them?" Luo Chen pointed to a stall not far away.

Qingshuang's eyes lit up, "I like it, let's go take a look."

They walked over to the puppet booth, which was filled with puppets of various colors and shapes, including kittens, puppies, and various mythical animals.

Qingshuang picked up a little fox doll and couldn't let it go.

"This little fox is so cute, Luo Chen, what do you think?" Qingshuang asked.

Luo Chen smiled and nodded, "It's really cute. If you like it, we'll buy it."

Qingshuang nodded happily, and Luo Chen bought the little fox doll from the stall owner.

Qingshuang hugged the doll tightly in her arms, as if she had found a new friend.

In the afternoon, they came to the city garden, which was full of various exotic flowers and plants, and the fragrance was overwhelming.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang sat in the pavilion in the garden, enjoying the quiet time.

"Luo Chen, have you ever thought about what life would be like if we stayed here forever?" Qing Shuang suddenly asked. (End of this chapter)
