Leaving the Mystic Realm

"Why are you hesitating now, Yingying? Forget about us old folks and go have fun with the youngsters. You'll definitely enjoy the outside world more than this forest." Grandpa Lan said to her.

"What about my duty?" Lan Yingying asked.

"You're worried about that? Just leave it to us. We will continue to clean the Lord's tablet." Grandpa Lan said.

After a slight pause, he continued with a smile on his face, "In fact, starting today, you have a new 'Lord'."

"Wait… What?" Lan Yingying looked at him with wide eyes.

"Go ahead and serve the young man as your new 'Lord'. You're not bound by a contract, anyway. It was our ancestors who decided to follow the Lord. We're simply carrying out their duties as a family tradition." Grandpa Lan said to her.
