An Immortal Comes Knocking: A Bowl of Meng Po Soup?

A thousand years later, when Hua Jinyuan finally found Meng Zixu, Meng Zixu was selling soup for 300,000 netherworld coins a bowl: authentic Meng Po Soup.

Immortal: Zixu, I've finally found you! Come back with me and become my disciple!

Meng Zixu: And you are...?

Immortal: ...Whatever, just come back with your master. You can do whatever you like once we're there.

Meng Zixu: Oh? You said it!

Immortal: Did I? What did I say?

Meng Zixu: Don't try to wriggle out of it! If I, Meng Po, can't reel you in, I'll jump into the River of Forgetfulness with that little ghost!

Little Ghost: Please don't drag me into your marital spat, my lord and lady! I'm trying to save up to marry a wife!

P.S. My new story is out! Dragon Lord, Bless Us: Handsome Men Welcome! Come on in

Meng Zixu: ...Go ahead and marry one, then. Let's see how you like getting eaten!

The Bridge of Helplessness, Meng Po Soup, the waters of the River of Forgetfulness, and a bond spanning three lifetimes. Though these two have a history as long as three lifetimes, they're still having a blast.

Meng Po and the Immortal make a pretty good match, too.
