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

"..."

Ran stared at Lin Chuan, her eyes flickering slightly. After a long moment, a faint smile spread across her lips. "I finally understand why, even though their relationship isn't harmonious, no one is willing to leave you."

"Sister Ran, are you willing to become my Taoist partner?" Lin Chuan looked at Ran with burning eyes.

"It's good enough that we have each other in our hearts. It's just a status. What's the harm if we don't have it?" Ran looked at Lin Chuan, with gentle ripples in her eyes.

"They all have status with me. If Sister Ran doesn't have one, won't you feel lost?" Lin Chuan's eyes fell straight on Ran's face.

"I……"

Ran bit her thin lips with her pearly teeth, her eyes flickering slightly, as if she was wandering among thousands of thoughts.

"Sister Ran, are you thinking that if you find someone of the same clan one day, you'll leave me and become his companion?"

Lin Chuan's tone was gloomy, with a hint of grievance between his eyebrows, and he seemed to be a little uneasy and resentful.

"no!"

Ran retorted eagerly, her eyes filled with panic and seriousness, "Even if I don't like you, after that incident, I will never become a Taoist partner with anyone else, let alone use this method on others. I..."

Before she could finish her words, a finger gently pressed against her lips, cutting off her unfinished words.

"Just kidding, I believe Sister Ran." Lin Chuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a smile in his eyes.

"..."

Ran pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and said nothing for a long time.

"Sister Ran is angry? I really don't doubt Sister Ran's intentions, I..."

Lin Chuan hurriedly explained, but before he finished speaking, Ran suddenly moved and gently rested her forehead against his.

"Sister Ran..."

Lin Chuan stared at the person so close to him, and his breathing unconsciously became lighter.

Ran remained silent. The next second, a white mark suddenly appeared on Lin Chuan's forehead. As the light flowed, there seemed to be faint lines appearing and disappearing.

"This is……"

Lin Chuan only felt a warm current flowing into his soul, and with a slight movement of his mind, he actually had a feeling of complete control over Ran.

"This is a secret technique unique to our clan. From now on, you will know my inner thoughts with just a thought. If I betray you, you can wipe me out in an instant."

As Ran spoke, her forehead slowly moved away from Lin Chuan's, and the white mark disappeared between his eyebrows.

"..."

Lin Chuan suddenly thought of the butterfly Gu that Bai Zhi gave him. Although its effect was similar to Ran's secret technique, it was not as ruthless as this secret technique.

"Sister Ran, please release the secret technique. I really believe in you."

"I know you believe me."

Ran looked serious, his eyes fixed on Lin Chuan. "I used this secret technique not only to reassure you, but more to reassure myself. Even if you didn't make that joke today, I would still use it on you."

"???"

Lin Chuan was filled with doubts, and his mind subconsciously moved slightly. But in an instant, his expression suddenly changed, and he said anxiously, "Resurrecting Sister Ran's people is not that dangerous for me. Sister Ran, please release the secret technique."

He just learned from Ran's inner thoughts that the main reason why she used this secret technique on him was because she was worried that he had not told her the truth and something unexpected would happen in the process of helping her.

The secret technique unilaterally binds the soul. Once her own soul is destroyed, her soul will also be destroyed. However, if she encounters an accident, she will be safe.

"If it's not dangerous, then what difference does it make whether it's untied or not?" Ran said with a hint of stubbornness in her tone.

"Even if it's not dangerous, it still needs to be resolved. Even if my soul is destroyed, there are ways to restore it. If you are harmed by the secret technique by then, where will I go to regret it?"

Lin Chuan frowned, his eyes filled with unquestionable determination.

"This secret technique cannot be solved." Ran shook her head slightly.

Lin Chuan: "..."

"You're angry?"

Seeing that Lin Chuan remained silent for a long time, Ran unconsciously clenched the hem of her skirt with her fingertips, and her voice carried a hint of barely perceptible uneasiness.

"..."

Lin Chuan did not respond, but just looked at Ran quietly.

"Don't be angry, okay? I... I was also afraid that you would lie..."

Before she could finish her words, Lin Chuan suddenly moved his head closer, causing her to subconsciously hold her breath.

After a long time, the two slowly separated.

"Sister Ran, will you be my Taoist partner? From now on, we will shoulder the burden you bear together." Lin Chuan looked at Ran with burning eyes and said seriously.

Ran's eyes were blurry, with a dazed look still in them. She nodded subconsciously and replied softly, "Yeah."

"My dear lady."

Lin Chuan raised his hand and gently stroked Ran's hair, his tone gentle and with a hint of expectation, "Can you please unlock that secret technique?"

"..."

Ran Ru woke up from her dream, and a blush instantly crept onto her face, but she still shook her head firmly, her eyes burning: "Since we are Taoist companions, we will naturally share life and death."

"Then I will also unilaterally form a spiritual bond with my wife."

Lin Chuan stretched out his finger, and his fingertip was about to touch Ran's eyebrows, but she turned her head away.

"No, I use this secret technique on you because you are the only one I have, and you are different. If you do this, you will be irresponsible to them." Ran lowered his eyes, his tone full of determination.

"..."

Lin Chuan's throat moved, but no sound came out. He just stared at Ran in a daze.

Ran seemed to feel a little uncomfortable under Lin Chuan's gaze. She pursed her lips and simply turned over, facing him with her back. "It's getting late. You should go to bed early."

"..."

Lin Chuan came back to his senses, moved closer to Ran, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "My wife, I can't sleep."

"..."

Ran didn't move, as if she really didn't hear Lin Chuan's words, and didn't respond at all.

"Why is my wife ignoring me? Is she asleep?"

Lin Chuan leaned forward again, and his warm breath gently brushed across the back of Ran's neck.

"..."

Ran suddenly turned over and threw herself into Lin Chuan's arms, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck.

"Sister Ran..."

"I listen to you."

……

The next day, the red sun was high in the sky.

Lin Chuan slowly opened his eyes, and while still sleepy, his gaze naturally fell on Ran in his arms.

At this moment, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, her eyes were slightly red and swollen, and dried tear marks were winding across her fair face.

Lin Chuan wanted to get up, but found that Ran was holding him tightly.

Looking at her still tired sleeping face, he was afraid that any loud movement would wake the person in his arms, so he had to give up and maintain this posture quietly.

As the sun sets, the afterglow slants through the window lattice.

Ran's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes, her hazy eyes still showing a hint of weariness.

"My lady, have you had a good rest?"

Sensing the subtle movement in his arms, Lin Chuan slowly opened his eyes, looking straight into Jin Ran's eyes with a bit of tenderness and affection.

"um, I……"

Ran's face flushed slightly, and she was about to say something when she suddenly stopped.

"I'll go get some spiritual fruit to moisten my wife's throat."
