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

Holy land for all people.

"Woo...Woo..."

After Lin Chuan's breath completely dissipated, someone couldn't help but let out a low sob.

The crying sound was like a stone dropped into still water, instantly breaking the silence. The strong restraint in the eyes of everyone present collapsed. The already heavy atmosphere suddenly became even heavier, and even the morning light seemed to have lost its warmth.

I don't know how long it took before the stagnant atmosphere was broken by a whisper.

Qing Shu was the first to calm down and said softly, "Sisters, go back and have a good rest. The fog that Qin Lang mentioned should be coming soon."

Except for Jiang Wanying and Xu Hanyi, everyone else nodded slightly. The melancholy in their eyes had not yet completely faded, but they turned around and left as they were told.

"Master, I will take you to your residence. This is what Achuan and I built for you bit by bit." Jiang Wanying gently pulled Xu Hanyi's sleeve with her fingertips.

"..."

Xu Hanyi was silent for a moment, then nodded gently. But as she passed by Qingshu, she suddenly stopped, her hands clenched slightly at her sides, and spoke in a voice as thin as a mosquito, intermittently: "Before... I..."

However, before she could finish her words, Qing Shu walked away as if she hadn't heard her, leaving the unfinished words in complete silence.

……

fairyland.

Lin Chuan sheathed his sword and collapsed to the ground, unable to hold on any longer. His chest rose and fell with his heavy breathing, and it took him a long time to let out a long sigh.

All around him were the broken limbs and corpses of monk puppets, the smell of blood filled the air, and everywhere he looked was a mess.

Fortunately, the fairyland is vast. Even though it is rumored that there are countless immortals, in this marginal area far away from the center, among the large group of cultivator puppets just now, there are only a few who are in the immortal realm, and there is not even one in the fairy spirit realm.

"I didn't expect that, in addition to the Yin-Yang Avenue being able to dissolve the gray mist, the purple mist produced by this tree can also be dispelled..."

Lin Chuan sat cross-legged and regulated his breathing while watching the gray mist in his body being dissolved by the purple mist.

It’s a pity that after the gray mist that invaded the body was dissolved, there was no benefit at all.

This means that in the future, he will not only have to swing his sword to kill the monk puppets that attack him, but he will also have to devote an extra part of his mind to constantly pay attention to and dissolve the mist that invades his body, which adds another burden.

"I don't know where this is, I'll go check around later..."

……

Holy land for all people.

After Jiang Wanying briefly helped Xu Hanyi familiarize herself with the layout of the holy land, she went back first.

Xu Hanyi sat alone by the window, staring blankly at the sky outside the window, not knowing whether he was looking at the rolling clouds or thinking of the figure far away in the fairyland through the sky.

After a long time, she withdrew her gaze and turned to look at Li Yue, who had been standing outside her door shortly after Jiang Wanying left.

"Come in and sit down."

Xu Hanyi spoke first, his voice calm and without much emotion.

Li Yue hesitated for a moment, but finally lowered her head and walked in front of Xu Hanyi.

"What? Do you want me to move a stool for you and make a pot of tea myself?" Xu Hanyi said unhappily.

Li Yue silently turned around and moved a stool next to Xu Hanyi, then turned back to the table and started making tea.

After a moment, she poured out a cup, held it in both hands and handed it to Xu Hanyi, calling softly: "Sister... Sister..."

Xu Hanyi was stunned, and a barely perceptible fluctuation flashed across his eyes.

After a moment, she reached out to take the teacup, took a sip, and looked up at Li Yue, "Sit down and talk."

Li Yue sat down silently, but lowered her head, clutching the corner of her clothes with her fingertips, and did not speak for a long time.

Xu Hanyi turned his gaze to the window again, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the rim of the cup, and the room became quiet again.

for a long time.

Perhaps they couldn't stand the atmosphere, or perhaps they couldn't suppress the words in their hearts anymore, but the two girls spoke almost at the same time, their voices overlapping softly: "I'm sorry..."

The two of them were stunned at the same time, and the silence that had just been broken with great difficulty came back again, and the atmosphere became stagnant again for a moment.

After a moment, Li Yue was the first to break the stagnant atmosphere. She took a deep breath and looked up at Xu Hanyi with a guilty look in her eyes: "Xu Hanyi, I am sorry for you."

"..."

Xu Hanyi was silent for a moment, then shook his head gently. "Things have already happened. An apology can only make you feel better."

Li Yue pursed her lips and lowered her head silently again.

"Now I just want Chuan'er to come back safely. I don't care about anything else." Xu Hanyi sighed lightly, and his eyes softened as he looked out the window.

"Xiao Linchuan will definitely come back safely, definitely..."

Li Yue raised her head, as if to comfort Xu Hanyi, or as if to comfort herself.

"Of course. I have an agreement with Chuan'er, and he dare not break it."

Xu Hanyi stroked the teacup with his fingertips, and his tone became more determined.

"Agreement? What agreement?" Li Yue looked at Xu Hanyi curiously.

Xu Hanyi did not respond, but turned his gaze to the sky again.

After a long time, just when Li Yue thought Xu Hanyi would not answer, a very light voice floated to her ears.

"I...I apologize for the harsh words and hurt I've said to you before. Forgive me. From now on, we...are a family, okay?"

Li Yue's face was full of surprise. She stared at Xu Hanyi's red ears. It took her a long time to react. After hesitating for a moment, she tentatively reached out and touched Xu Hanyi's forehead.

"What...what are you doing?" Xu Hanyi said lightly, and her face became even redder.

"I'm not sick..."

Li Yue withdrew her hand and then looked up at Xu Hanyi, with a hint of puzzlement in her eyes: "Xu Hanyi, could this be caused by a longing illness?"

"..."

The veins on Xu Hanyi's forehead throbbed almost imperceptibly. He took a deep breath to suppress his embarrassment, then turned to look at Li Yue, his tone becoming more serious. "I have an agreement with Chuan'er. From the moment you all sincerely accept me, he will definitely come back within five hundred years."

"..."

Li Yue looked at Xu Hanyi's eyes filled with anticipation that was about to overflow, and her expression suddenly became complicated.

After hesitating for a long time, she spoke softly, her tone somewhat cautious: "What if... I mean, what if... Xiaolinchuan... didn't keep his promise?"

"He dares!"

Xu Hanyi clenched his teacup tightly, the anticipation in his eyes instantly shrouded in thick paranoia, but his tone was so soft that it seemed like a whisper: "I told him, if he dares to break the agreement, I will kill you all by any means necessary. He cares about you so much, how could he dare?"

"..."

Li Yue looked at the forced paranoia in Xu Hanyi's eyes, feeling mixed emotions.

She could see that Xu Hanyi knew the uncertainty behind this agreement better than anyone else, but he insisted on deceiving her with such barbed words, as if by tying everyone up as chips, he could grasp that slim hope.

"Li Yue, you said that he would never dare to break the agreement, right?" Xu Hanyi looked at Li Yue expectantly.

"..."

Li Yue looked at the hope in Xu Hanyi's eyes, which was full of disappointment. Her throat tightened, but she finally nodded heavily, deliberately putting on a stern face and pretending to be fierce. "Of course! If Xiao Linchuan dares to come back later than scheduled, I won't even need you to do anything. I will just slit my own throat and let him come back without even being able to see me one last time. I'm so heartbroken for him!"

"That won't work."

Xu Hanyi shook his head, thought for a moment, and added, "You didn't make any agreement with Chuan'er, so I am the only one who can take your life."

"Is that really the case?"

Li Yue raised the corner of her mouth slightly and looked straight at Xu Hanyi.

"Why not?"

Xu Hanyi avoided Li Yue's gaze and looked up at the sky again.

"Xu Hanyi, we are a family now, right?"

"Weren't you quite polite when you first came in?"

"elder sister?"

"Be good, little sister. The tea is cold. Go and get me a new cup."
