Junlin hadn't expected that his words would break Yu Qingxue's defenses. At this moment, he could only gently pat Yu Qingxue's back and soothe her softly.
The husky sat obediently on the ground, but actually, it was quite conflicted.
Because just as they were leaving, the lady of the house instructed it to keep an eye on Junlin and prevent him from having affairs.
But it's just a dog, what can it do?
When it saw Yu Qingxue hugging Junlin, it barked once; that was the limit of what it could do!
But now, he dares not bark anymore.
Although we're all going to die sooner or later, it's better to die later.
Moreover, compared to its owner, its clever little brain can immediately figure out who to favor.
A moment later.
Yu Qingxue's sobs subsided, but she remained nestled in Junlin's arms; it felt so warm there, a warmth that came from the bottom of her heart.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have kept snuggling into Junlin's arms.
However, she was too embarrassed to stay in Junlin's arms any longer, and after a while, she explained with red eyes, "I'm sorry, I..."
Jun Lin smiled gently. "It's alright, it's all in the past."
Yu Qingxue nodded obediently.
But then Junlin added, "Silly girl, do you know that you could have escaped this sea of suffering a long time ago?"
"Why?"
Yu Qingxue was taken aback. What did these words mean? Did they mean that Jun Lin had been here before, but she had missed it?
Seeing Yu Qingxue's puzzled expression, Junlin pointed at the jade pendant in her hand and said coldly, "There is a remnant soul in this jade pendant. If she wanted to save you, she could have done so long ago."
Yu Qingxue was startled upon hearing this. A remnant soul was inside her jade pendant? When did this happen?!
"But……"
Yu Qingxue looked at the jade pendant in her hand. If it really existed, then wouldn't her experiences these past few days have been witnessed by this remnant soul?
Junlin continued, "There are only two possibilities for why she didn't save you. The first possibility is that she wants to wait until you have a mental breakdown or die so that she can possess your body. The second possibility is that she wants to wait until you encounter a huge crisis before making a move, so as to gain your absolute trust."
"You're talking nonsense!"
Just as Jun Lin finished speaking, a woman's voice came from the jade pendant, her tone filled with anger.
Jun Lin felt a surge of joy. Perhaps the possession was fake, but the second possibility was most likely true.
Yu Qingxue was startled when she heard the sound from the jade pendant in her hand. She quickly threw the pendant away and hid next to Jun Lin.
Immediately afterwards, a figure appeared from within the jade pendant.
It was the remnant soul of a woman, with a stunning figure and beautiful face, but her pretty face was full of resentment.
As soon as she came out, she explained, "The reason I didn't take action is because I only recently awakened and my strength is not enough to help her escape from this place!"
Jun Lin shrugged and looked at Yu Qingxue, "My dear disciple, do you believe it?"
Yu Qingxue looked at the woman in front of her, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes, but then she shook her head and said, "I only believe in you, Master!"
Between the mysterious woman who had been inside his jade pendant for who knows how long and his master who had just saved him from the demon's lair, even a fool would know who to believe.
Seeing this, Yue Qingqiu became somewhat annoyed. "I'm telling the truth. Even if he doesn't come, it will only take a month at most for me to help you leave this place."
Upon hearing this, Yu Qingxue was even more incredulous. "In another month, we might not even be able to find my body!"
Just as Master said, there's still a month left. This guy wants to wait until he faces a huge crisis before he makes his move!
Jun Lin wanted to laugh to himself; encountering such an opponent was far too easy to win.
Yue Qingqiu realized she had spoken out of turn and felt a little annoyed. She had been a bit anxious and had inadvertently fallen into Junlin's trap.
Before Yue Qingqiu could continue explaining, Jun Lin spoke up.
"If I'm not mistaken, once you save Qingxue in a month, you will naturally become her master, teach her knowledge, and help her avenge you in the future, and rebuild your body. If she proves to be useless, you will find an opportunity to possess her, right?"
Yue Qingqiu: "?"
By the way, half right, when did she ever think about possessing someone else's body?
She simply wanted to pass on her martial arts knowledge and alchemy skills, nothing more!
But Yu Qingxue certainly wouldn't believe such a statement.
After all, if it were her, she wouldn't believe it either.
This is terrible...
Yue Qingqiu sighed, "Even if I say it's not like that, you definitely won't believe me. Just tell me what you want."
She couldn't see through Junlin's strength, but Junlin could detect her presence, which meant that Junlin, like her, was a powerful expert at the Martial Venerable realm.
Now that she is just a remnant soul, she naturally has no ability to resist.
Jun Lin looked at Yue Qingqiu and said, "Introduce yourself. Even according to your plan, to become Yu Qingxue's master, you should at least have the corresponding abilities, right?"
Upon hearing this, Yue Qingqiu snorted lightly, "Me? The Pavilion Master of the Divine Moon Pavilion in Central Continent, a Supreme-level Alchemist! Am I not qualified to be this little girl's master?"
Junlin shook his head. "That's not enough, but if you beg me, I can let you pass on your alchemy skills to Qingxue."
This is a master of alchemy tailored by the Heavenly Dao for his disciple. It would be a disservice to the Heavenly Dao not to make good use of him!
"?"
Yue Qingqiu was stunned when she heard this. Was this something a human would say?
She immediately laughed in anger, "Are you kidding me? I, a supreme-level alchemist, am teaching her alchemy, and I have to beg her?!"
Jun Lin raised an eyebrow slightly, "You're unwilling? Then take your alchemy skills and the Yu family and vanish into thin air."
