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

Chapter 493 The World

"No, never."

Lin Chuan looked serious, staring at Lin Wanxi firmly, his eyes full of unquestionable certainty.

After saying that, he exerted a little force and hugged Lin Wanxi tightly in his arms.

"..."

Lin Wanxi's body stiffened. After a brief moment of stunnedness in Lin Chuan's arms, her tense body gradually relaxed.

"I need to hurry up and recover now. Protect me, okay? I need you."

A warm breath brushed past Lin Wanxi's ears, and Lin Chuan's voice was low and dependent.

"I……"

Lin Wanxi opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when thousands of words came to her lips, she didn't know where to start.

"Okay?"

Lin Chuan raised his head slightly, looking straight at Lin Wanxi with a look of earnestness and expectation.

"it is good."

Lin Wanxi responded softly, her voice soft but revealing unquestionable firmness.

"Then from now on, my life is in your hands."

As Lin Chuan spoke, he raised his hand and gently rubbed Lin Wanxi's head. Then, he closed his eyes and immersed himself in recovering from his injuries again.

"Leave it to... me..."

……

Inside another portal.

"I don't know what's happening with Ah Chuan. I can't waste any more time on this."

Inside the maze, Jiang Wanying frowned, a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. She was about to make a move, but was suddenly stopped by Bai Zhi with her arm across.

"Your life span is already short, so let me take over. The side effects of my skills are not as severe as yours."

Bai Zhi took a deep breath, and the energy around her surged and rose like a tide.

"Cang Yun."

With her low shout, the cold voice echoed in the maze.

In an instant, the entire maze began to shake violently, the ground rustled, and dust flew.

The wall that originally blocked their way suddenly melted away like ice and snow, and slowly turned into mist and dissipated in a burst of mist.

"It's up to you now."

Before Bai Zhi finished speaking, the spiritual energy surging around her receded like a tide, and her aura instantly dropped. A few strands of black hair fell on her cheeks, making her pale face look even more fragile.

"Don't worry, it's up to me next..."

Jiang Wanying's eyes were as sharp as torches, staring straight at the blue brick covered with spider-web-like cracks on the ground in the distance.

……

"Son..."

As soon as Lin Chuan opened his eyes, he alarmed the people guarding him.

Lin Wanxi turned around very quickly, her white fingertips unconsciously clenching the hem of her skirt, and her voice was filled with surprise and nervousness.

"Let's go, we should find a way out."

Lin Chuan's breath was still a little weak, but he managed to stand up slowly and reached out to hold Lin Wanxi's slightly cold fingertips.

"..."

"Sir, why don't we split up..."

Before Lin Wanxi could finish her words, the sudden force from her wrist made her stagger.

"I've only suppressed my injuries now, and I still have to rely on Wanxi for protection."

Lin Chuan held Lin Wanxi's hand tightly and walked slowly forward with her. In the distance, the outline of a mountain was faintly visible.

……

At the foot of the mountain, Lin Chuan paused and slowly stopped.

"Wanxi, don't always look so worried. It's not good."

He turned his head to look at the tense Lin Wanxi, raised his hand and gently pulled the corner of her mouth, his tone was a bit frivolous and intimate, "Come on, smile for me."

"..."

Lin Wanxi pursed her lips, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised. Although the smile did not reach her eyes, it eased her tense expression a little.

"So beautiful, worthy of being my Lin Chuan's wife."

Lin Chuan gently placed his hands on Lin Wanxi's shoulders and looked at her seriously.

"As long as you like it, sir..."

Lin Wanxi lowered her head slightly, her long hair falling down, half covering her blushing cheeks.

"Of course I like her, but Wanxi, ah..." Lin Chuan sighed softly when the words came to his lips.

"..."

Lin Wanxi raised her head suddenly, then quickly lowered it.

She really wanted to know what she had done wrong that caused Lin Chuan to have such feelings, but deep down she was afraid to know.

"Wanxi, aren't you curious about why I sigh?"

Seeing that Lin Wanxi didn't say a word, Lin Chuan couldn't help but feel a little funny and a little distressed.

"Wanxi is useless and has disappointed you..."

Lin Wanxi's voice trembled, and with a strong sense of self-blame, she lowered her head even lower.

“It’s quite disappointing.”

Lin Chuan nodded.

"..."

Lin Wanxi pursed her lips and was about to say something when she heard Lin Chuan continue:

"I'm willing to share the hardships with Wanxi, but Wanxi doesn't want to be like this with me. She always treats me like an outsider. How can I not be disappointed?"

He leaned closer, raised his hand gently, and brushed away a strand of hair that had slipped down Lin Wanxi's cheek.

"..."

"Sharing weal and woe..."

Lin Wanxi's hands trembled slightly as she slowly caressed Lin Chuan's face, her fingertips lightly stroking his features. "You clearly don't have to worry about me, you clearly can refuse to become my Taoist partner, but you still take care of me in every way. Do you feel sorry for me..."

Lin Chuan's lips moved slightly, and just as he was about to deny it, Lin Wanxi's slightly cold fingers gently pressed against his lips.

"It doesn't matter now. Since the day you rescued me from the dungeon, you have become my whole world."

"I can't leave you, Master..."
