At that moment, Aunt Taiyi's voice suddenly came from afar, "Oh, you two finally met! Come over here, I have something to show you!"
The two turned around and saw Aunt Taiyi standing in a small pavilion by the lake, waving at them.
"Aunt Taiyi?" Ao Bing exclaimed, looking at the familiar figure in surprise. "What is she doing here?"
"She arranged for us to meet," Nezha explained. "She gave me a note saying to come here to see you. Didn't you know?"
Ao Bing shook his head, confusion filling his eyes. "I only sensed the call of the crystal and created a clone to come here. Aunt Taiyi... she's not an ordinary person."
Nezha nodded, confirming his earlier suspicions. "I thought so too. Let's go see what she wants to show us."
The two walked toward the pavilion together. Aunt Taiyi stood there with a kind smile on her face, like a mother watching her children reunite.
"You're here, you're here!" Aunt Taiyi said happily. "Ao Bing, young man, how have you been? Is everything going smoothly with the affairs of the Dragon Palace?"
Ao Bing respectfully bowed to Aunt Taiyi. "Thank you for your concern, senior. Everything is under control."
Aunt Taiyi waved her hand dismissively. "No need to be so formal; I'm no longer a big shot. Now I'm just an ordinary Dormitory Office auntie." She turned to Nezha, "Little Nezha, are you happy to see Ao Bing?"
Nezha nodded vigorously, a joyful smile lighting up his face. "I'm so happy! Thank you, Auntie. If it weren't for you, we might not have met."
Aunt Taiyi chuckled softly. "What’s there to thank? Seeing you two together makes me happy too!" She pulled out a small silk pouch from her robe and handed it to Nezha. "This is for you both; you must participate in next week's Winter Couple Challenge."
Nezha took the pouch, looking at Aunt Taiyi with confusion. "But... Ao Bing is just a clone. How can he participate in the competition?"
Aunt Taiyi smiled mysteriously. "There’s a way in the pouch. If you follow the instructions, Ao Bing can maintain his clone state for three days, which is enough to compete."
Ao Bing looked at Aunt Taiyi in surprise. "Senior, this..."
"Don't ask so many questions," Aunt Taiyi interrupted him. "I'm getting old and I enjoy watching young people fall in love. You both must participate in the competition and strive for a good ranking!"
With that, Aunt Taiyi patted their shoulders—her hand passing through Ao Bing's clone—and then turned to leave, leaving Nezha and Ao Bing standing in the pavilion, holding the mysterious pouch.
"Aunt Taiyi... who exactly is she?" Nezha whispered, watching her retreating figure.
Ao Bing pondered for a moment before softly saying, "I’ve heard my father mention that Taiyi Zhenren was a powerful figure from ancient times, skilled in various spells and alchemy, especially adept at prophecy and fate techniques. Later, he chose to live in seclusion, away from worldly affairs. I never expected..."
"Never expected he would appear at our school as the Dormitory Office aunt," Nezha interjected, his face showing surprise and realization. "No wonder she knows so much and can help you maintain your clone state."
Ao Bing nodded and then curiously looked at the pouch in Nezha's hand. "Shall we see what's inside?"
Nezha carefully opened the pouch to find a neatly folded note and a small blue crystal, almost identical to the one he and Ao Bing were wearing.
"Another crystal?" Nezha asked in astonishment. "Isn't this the third one already?"
