The scorching sun hung high in the sky, and on the ruins of Chuanyin Hall, demons were enthusiastically rebuilding the palace with tools in hand.
Water Moon Fairy sat amidst the clouds, her heart brimming with joy as she watched this scene.
Three months after the war had ended, Wanling City returned to peace.
Humans and demons were busy reconstructing Wanling City; even children lent a helping hand, their hands chafed by stones, yet the passion on their faces did not diminish in the slightest.
"Why not assist the Buddha?"
A voice asked from behind Water Moon Fairy.
Without turning, the Fairy replied, "Golden Cicada, you've truly found me."
"Decades have passed."
Elder Jin Chan answered, "Even someone as dull as I would have noticed by now."
He floated to Water Moon Fairy's side.
"Answer me," Elder Jin Chan asked again, "why haven't you helped the Buddha?"
Water Moon Fairy gathered her hair, "He did not ask for my help."
"That is not an answer."
