After becoming a Taoist partner with my senior sister, my master changed

"After that incident, I thought about this issue seriously. If I were to say I like her, I definitely do, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of becoming her companions to take responsibility for Sister Ran."

Lin Chuan looked solemnly at Ran with frank eyes, "Of course, if Sister Ran doesn't feel anything for me, there's no need to force yourself, and there's no need to go along with me just because I'm helping you."

"..."

Ran stared at Lin Chuan blankly, her heart in turmoil. After a long silence, she said softly, "Can you give me some time to think about it?"

"Okay." Lin Chuan nodded slightly in response.

Hearing this, Ran's tense shoulders relaxed slightly. She suppressed her turbulent thoughts and asked, "Where are we going next?"

"Let's go to the hall opened by Fengtian Pavilion here first and have someone deliver the things, and then we will get down to business." As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Chuan took the lead and walked forward.

Ran looked at his back, pursed her lips, and quickly followed him.

……

The sun sets and the silver moon rises.

Lin Chuan sat quietly in front of the wooden house, slowly stirring a ball of black soil with his hands, while Ran watched silently from the side.

"You bought this thousand-year-old grave soil to use as a body to revive my people?"

"You bought this thousand-year-old grave soil, hoping to use it to revive my people?"

After a long pause, Ran frowned and asked. The day's shopping, coupled with Lin Chuan's current actions, gave her a faint glimpse of something.

"Ah."

Lin Chuan nodded slightly without stopping his hands.

"Is this heaven-defying move really feasible? Otherwise..."

Before Ran could finish her words, she was interrupted by Lin Chuan.

"This is the only way for your clan to continue."

Lin Chuan's tone was firm, and his hands were still stirring the soil steadily.

"..."

Ran was slightly startled, and remained silent for a long time. Finally, she spoke softly: "But I don't want anything to happen to you either."

"Don't worry, Sister Ran, nothing can happen to me."

Lin Chuan raised a smile at the corner of his lips and shook his head slightly.

"Don't lie to me. This act of defying the will of heaven is bound to be extremely dangerous."

Ran's eyes were fixed on Lin Chuan, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

"Sister Ran, put your mind at ease. I'm not bragging, but you know the underworld, right? It doesn't matter if you don't know. You just need to know that the boss there is my old friend."

Lin Chuan had a relaxed smile on his face and spoke in a light tone.

"But……"

Ran wanted to say something else, but saw Lin Chuan suddenly stop what he was doing, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Sister Ran is so worried about me, could it be that you have already made up your mind and are willing to be my Taoist partner?"

"I……"

Ran lowered her head, a rosy red flush adorning the tips of her ears, as if blood were about to drip out. After an unknown amount of time, she spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "I still haven't figured it out, but if you really want me to be your Taoist partner, I..."

She took a deep breath and looked up suddenly, only to see that Lin Chuan had closed his eyes at some point, with his palms pressed against the black clay figurine, and the yin and yang energies entwined and flowed on the surface of the clay figurine like spirit snakes.

The evening breeze blew gently, and the heat on Ran's face faded a little.

She picked up a piece of cake that Lin Chuan bought for her during the day and put it in her mouth.

The sweet taste made her frown slightly, just like the emerald color on her wrist, she didn't like it but liked it at the same time.

……

Qingluan Holy Land, Tianjian Peak.

"Master."

Jiang Wanying walked in hurriedly, and when she pushed the door open, she brought up a gust of wind, causing the candlelight on the table to sway slightly.

"Ying'er, why haven't you rested yet so late?"

Xu Hanyi put down the blood-stained robe beside the pillow and looked at Jiang Wanying with a look of fatigue and concern.

"Disciple just received a letter from Fengtian Pavilion." Jiang Wanying said softly.

"Master has said it before, I am fine. Ying'er doesn't have to stay by my side all the time. The matters of Fengtian Pavilion are important. Go and get busy." Xu Hanyi waved his hand.

"The letter was written by Achuan."

As Jiang Wanying spoke, she looked at Xu Hanyi's expression calmly.

"Chuan'er..."

Xu Hanyi's heart trembled, her eyes flickering slightly. After a long pause, she spoke slowly, "What did he write to you? Is he short of spirit stones? I have some here, give them to him. Oh, and there are also pills. Being out there isn't as good as being at Tianjian Peak..."

She kept muttering as she took out one storage bag after another from the storage space.

"Master, don't you want to hand the things over to Achuan personally? I can help you pass the message." Jiang Wanying's eyes fell on the storage bags that were constantly stacking in Xu Hanyi's hands, and her tone was a little tentative.

"..."

Xu Hanyi's expression darkened, and his hands faltered slightly. "Chuan'er must be completely disgusted with me right now, and won't want my things. Ying'er, please help me pass them on. If it's convenient, please apologize on my behalf... Of course, if Ying'er is worried that this will affect your relationship, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

"Master, don't you want to go find Achuan? As long as you are more open-minded, Achuan will definitely forgive you." Jiang Wanying's eyes were burning, and her tone was sincere and expectant.

"Chuan'er will never forgive me, and I can't be broad-minded."

Xu Hanyi lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the edge of the storage bag, "Ying'er was right before, I should let Chuan'er go, and let myself go."

"If Ah Chuan never blamed Master, could Master be broad-minded?"

Jiang Wanying looked straight into Xu Hanyi's eyes, her gaze full of inquiry.

"..."

The candlelight flickered, turning Xu Hanyi's shadow on the wall into a broken outline.

She was silent for a long time, and finally sighed softly, her tone full of fatigue: "Ying'er, go and reply to the letter. I am tired."

"The disciple will go back first. This is for Master..."

Before Jiang Wanying could finish her words, she felt a cold wind carrying a faint fragrance blowing past. As her shadow swayed, the wooden box in her hand disappeared.

"Is this really... what Chuan'er gave to me?"

Xu Hanyi's trembling fingertips stroked the warm white jade bracelet in the wooden box, then looked at the unopened letter, his voice trembling with an uncontrollable tremor.

"My disciple's is here."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Wanying took out another wooden box from the storage space, in which lay quietly a crimson jade bracelet and an opened letter.

"Chuan'er..."

Xu Hanyi stroked the warm lines of the jade bracelet with her fingertips and gently put it on her wrist. The silvery moonlight shone through the window lattice onto the bracelet, reflecting a tiny light in her eyes.

"Disciple will go to rest first, Master should also rest early."

Seeing Xu Hanyi was a little absent-minded, Jiang Wanying sighed lightly, turned around and left the hall.

After an unknown amount of time, the night wind blew through the window lattice, and Xu Hanyi suddenly came back to his senses and slowly unfolded the letter in his hand.

"Master, I am doing well. Don't worry. I will come back to visit you when I have made some progress in my cultivation..."

After reading this, Xu Hanyi couldn't help but smile, and the candlelight made her eyes sparkle.

However, when she read the following content, her expression suddenly changed, and a chill instantly spread throughout her body.
