"City Lord, you can rest assured. I dare not say anything else, but I am at least the number one disciple of the outer sect. It is only a matter of time before I enter the inner sect. As for taking care of Lin Feng, it depends on the sincerity of the City Lord."
"Of course! Mr. Han can come and visit more often in the future to promote communication." Lin Mo said with a smile.
Gu Yuan, hiding in the bamboo forest, secretly complained, "This guy actually made a secret deal with the city lord? But who is that beauty he is talking about? Could it be Han Ji?"
After thinking about it, Gu Yuan felt that it was her. After all, with Han Tian's aesthetic taste, perhaps only Han Ji could catch his eye.
After Han Tian and the other two left, Gu Yuan walked out slowly.
"I came out for a stroll and actually ran into this guy. Han Tian, ah Han Tian, should I say you are lucky?"
…
Lin Wan'er sat in front of the bed, looking at Shui Yaoyao who was falling into sleep, and couldn't help but sigh.
"My master is gone, my senior sister has fled to the Central Region, and now even you, Princess, are asleep. Why are you all treating me like this?"
There was a hint of sadness and confusion in Lin Wan'er's eyes.
Shaking her head and suppressing the strange emotions in her heart, Lin Wan'er stood up, picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped her cute and delicate little face.
"You love to be clean the most, sister will help you wipe it."
"Ms. Lin."
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded. Lin Wan'er turned around and looked with a look of surprise on her face.
"Mr. Gu? Why are you here?"
It was Gu Yuan who came back from strolling and took off his disguise.
"Are you here to see Yaoyao?" Lin Wan'er asked subconsciously.
"I've already seen it, and now I have something I want to talk to you about." Gu Yuan said.
Lin Wan'er was stunned. She looked at Gu Yuan and then at Shui Yaoyao. She didn't know where Gu Yuan was coming.
"Is there anything I can help you with, Mr. Gu?" Lin Wan'er asked.
"I want to talk to you about Gu Shang." Gu Yuan said after a moment of hesitation.
"Master! Do you know where Master went?"
Lin Wan'er suddenly became excited.
"Ms. Lin, don't get excited. I sneaked in. Don't let anyone find out!" Gu Yuan hurriedly reminded.
Lin Wan'er ran out and said to the guards outside, "No one is allowed to come in without my permission! This includes my father and His Royal Highness the Prince."
Looking at the majestic Lin Wan'er, Gu Yuan sighed inwardly. She was no longer the same person she used to be.
After closing the door, Lin Wan'er said calmly, "Mr. Gu, please take a seat. Now you can talk."
"Um."
"Gu Shang... uh, that's your master. I think you already know about her."
Lin Wan'er's eyes were slightly red. "Yeah. Actually, Master told me something before the war, but... I didn't expect Master to..."
Gu Yuan continued, "Before that, I had a conversation with Gu Shang, and we talked about you."
"Me? What did Master say?" Lin Wan'er asked excitedly.
"Ahem... He didn't say anything, just asked me to take good care of you."
Gu Yuan felt a little embarrassed. After all, it seemed like he was handing Lin Wan'er over to him, but she wasn't alone like him...
"ah?"
"Don't get me wrong, I'm talking about your future cultivation. Actually, I want to ask you what you think about cultivation. The path of cultivation is a struggle against the laws of nature, and you may not be aware of the difficulties and dangers involved. So, I want to ask you, do you really want to cultivate and become stronger?"
"Yes! Of course I do! I want to avenge my master!"
Unexpectedly, Lin Wan'er answered very straightforwardly.
"I hope you've thought it over before you speak. You have an extremely cold ice body. Although this physique is extremely abnormal, it is based on your hard work. If you give up halfway, even if you have this physique, you will be no different from an ordinary person." Gu Yuan said.
"To avenge my master, I can do anything! Including killing people!"
Lin Wan'er's aura suddenly turned icy cold. "If Master hadn't saved me from that monster, I wouldn't be who I am today. Now that Master is gone and Senior Sister is no longer around, I naturally want to avenge her."
"In fact, your master also hopes that you can enter the world of cultivation."
After a period of silence, Gu Yuan told Lin Wan'er the truth. Although deep down, he didn't want Lin Wan'er to take this path, because she had a family behind her, he didn't want Lin Wan'er to become a spiritual cultivator like him. After all, practicing spiritual cultivation was too cruel.
"It turns out that Master also supports me."
"Hey, you haven't told anyone about the fact that Gu Shang is your master, right?" Gu Yuan suddenly asked.
"No, Master only said that she had a special identity and many enemies, so he specifically told me not to tell anyone about my identity. Therefore, no one, including my father, knew that I was Master's disciple, except Master, you and Senior Sister."
Gu Yuan said seriously, "That's good. Don't mention your identity to anyone. Remember this."
"Mr. Gu, did Master tell you something?"
"I'll tell you about this later, but the time is not right now."
Lin Wan'er thought to herself, as expected, and felt a little aggrieved. As her master's disciple, she didn't even know about it, but she told Gu Yuan, an outsider.
Unaware of Lin Wan'er's subtle thoughts, Gu Yuan said, "Gu Shang is my friend, so we are now on the same page, right?"
Lin Wan'er couldn't help but laugh and said, "So you are a generation older than me. Should I call you Uncle Master?"
Gu Yuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Let's each have our own way. I can't afford to be your uncle."
"Okay, okay, I'm just talking."
