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

Chapter 136 Thank you very much

northern border,

The desolate land that was once shrouded in fog has unveiled its mysterious veil since the fog completely dissipated, attracting wave after wave of treasure hunters.

Most of these treasure hunters are solitary cultivators or those on the fringes of the sect.

"The immortal ruins are ahead."

Bai Zhi, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around, and her clear voice broke the silence as she spoke to Lin Chuan behind her.

Hearing this, Lin Chuan looked ahead and saw a small oasis like a shining pearl, which seemed out of place in this desolate land.

The oasis was already bustling with people of all kinds. However, at a glance, one could quickly discern three distinct camps.

Human race, monster race, demon race.

Before the fog appeared, the North was a battleground fiercely contested by humans and demons. However, after the fog dissipated, the North lost its spiritual veins, leaving the entire region desolate. Furthermore, given the current friendly relationship between humans and demons, there's been no renewed conflict over the North's sovereignty.

As for the demons, facing the northern border, which didn't border their own territory, and the lack of demonic energy, they viewed this place as a pure evil land. If it weren't for the immortal ruins that appeared here, they would probably curse it even if they passed by.

As soon as Lin Chuan and his group arrived at the human camp, they attracted the attention of most people.

"Look, it's Fairy Xu!"

"I saw it, and there's more than that. Not far away seems to be Saint Baizhi, right? She's here too!"

"Strange, why do I feel that Fairy Xu has lost her former aloofness? There seems to be more charm between her eyebrows."

"Yeah, I feel the same way, and it seems to have a bit more of a wifey feel to it!"

"How dare you! How dare you destroy the perfect image of Fairy Xu in my mind? I will fight you!"

Everyone below chattered quietly, their attention always focused on Xu Hanyi and Bai Zhi. As for Lin Chuan, he was ignored, with only a few female cultivators observing him with greedy eyes.

"Shut up!" Xu Hanyi snorted coldly, his icy gaze sweeping across the chattering crowd like a sharp sword. Suddenly, the crowd quieted down. Some, unable to control their mouths and eyes, vomited blood and instantly lost their breath.

"Is this the entrance to the Immortal Ruins?"

Lin Chuan looked up at the building that looked like a portal, and in an instant, a word suddenly popped up in his mind - portal.

"That should be it. Chuan'er, follow me closely."

After saying that, Xu Hanyi took Lin Chuan's hand and walked straight towards the portal, followed closely by Bai Zhi.

"My God, what kind of man could make Fairy Xu take the initiative to hold his hand? Not only that, it seems that Saint Bai is also with him."

"My dear brother, you may not know that man is the disciple of Fairy Xu. As for Saint Bai, she must have just passed by."

"Disciple? I think it's a Taoist partner?"

"My dear brother, don't get yourself into a mentor-disciple relationship. Everyone looks like a mentor-disciple relationship to you."

"What's wrong with teacher-student relationships? Aren't there many people doing this?"

"There are quite a few, but it's rare to find a male master and male apprentice like you."

"Discrimination! You are being blatantly sexist!"

……

"Ahem, Master Xu Feng, please stay."

Just when Xu Hanyi and the others were about to reach the entrance of the ruins, a hearty and powerful voice came from afar.

"Saint Dragon Lord? What's the matter?"

Xu Hanyi paused slightly, and when he saw that the person coming was Long Zhantian, a look of doubt appeared on his face.

"This immortal relic has its own unique rules. Cultivators above the Golden Core Realm cannot enter it."

As Long Zhantian spoke, he looked at Xu Hanyi with a serious expression, as if he was afraid that she would act rashly on impulse.

"Is there such a thing?" Xu Hanyi looked incredulous.

"It's absolutely true. I saw with my own eyes a cultivator at the Spiritual Transformation Stage who, relying on his advanced cultivation, forcibly tried to break into the ruins. He was instantly strangled by the power of the rules within the ruins, leaving not even a trace of him."

Long Zhantian had a serious expression on his face. He waved his hands vigorously as he spoke, emphasizing the seriousness of the matter.

"Then Chuan'er, let's go back."

After saying that, Xu Hanyi took Lin Chuan's hand and prepared to go back. She couldn't go in, so how could she let Lin Chuan in? Impossible!

"Master."

Lin Chuan shook his head slightly, and then slowly pulled his hand out of Xu Hanyi's palm.

"We have to go in. Immortal ruins are not easy to find. Now there is one right in front of us. Senior Sister is still waiting for the treasure that will prolong her life."

"But……"

Xu Hanyi listened to Lin Chuan's words with a confused look on her face and her brows furrowed. It was obvious that she was having a fierce struggle in her heart.

"Master Xu Feng loves his disciple dearly, and I understand that. But young people always have to go through some trials and tribulations, don't they? Moreover, the highest level of those who can enter the ruins this time is at the peak of the Golden Core stage. With Lin Chuan's strength, Master Xu Feng is still worried?"

Long Zhantian persuaded with a smile on his face, his eyes showing some admiration for Lin Chuan.

"No, it's too dangerous, I won't allow it!"

Xu Hanyi, who had been struggling for a long time, finally didn't want to let Lin Chuan take the risk of entering the immortal ruins alone.

There was no other way, so Lin Chuan had to get closer to Xu Hanyi. As she stared at him with doubt and a hint of shyness, he slowly leaned over to her ear.

"Yiyi, be good and listen to me, okay?"

Xu Hanyi suddenly felt as if his ears were burning. He was so panicked that he didn't know what to do. He could only glare at Lin Chuan with a flushed face.

"Traitor...traitor, go ahead if you want to. Your master won't care about you anymore!"

After Xu Hanyi said this with a face full of shame and anger, he turned around angrily and hurriedly left Lin Chuan.

"You're amazing, kid! I've often heard your Holy Lord talk about Xu Hanyi's stubborn temper, and you were able to convince him with just a few words. Amazing!"

"Can you teach me how to do it? My apprentice is so stubborn. He just sleeps all day and ignores everything I say. I'm really distressed."

Li Jun's face was full of admiration, and his eyes were sparkling with curiosity.

Lin Chuan: "..."

"I'm just lucky. Besides, my master isn't stubborn. She just cares about me too much and is afraid that I'll get into danger if I go into the immortal ruins alone." Lin Chuan smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Tsk, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I don't want to know yet!"

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to mention that my unworthy disciple was forcibly thrown into the ruins. If you meet him and can help him, ahem, I will reward him handsomely after he comes out."

"But if you see him slacking off in there, please help me teach him a lesson. I'll definitely reward him handsomely when he gets out."
