Chapter 170
Wen Xin... Wen Xin is a complicated story.
On his first attempt at alchemy, not only did the entire furnace produce pills, including some of the highest quality, but he still wore an expression as if to say, "I messed up, what kind of garbage did I make?"
If the alchemists outside knew, they would definitely come after him one by one, carrying their alchemy furnaces, to fight him to the death.
"Oh no," Wen Xin grabbed Baili's hand, "Little apprentice, why did you suddenly decide to refine pills?"
As a sword cultivator (of demonic seed), instead of focusing on your cultivation and becoming a powerful force in the future, why bother with alchemy as a side job? It's simply neglecting your proper duties!
Baili Han habitually squeezed her hand back and said solemnly, "I will find a way to cure my junior master's wife's illness."
Wen Xin was taken aback, deeply moved. "Little disciple, you don't need to do this. What if it affects your cultivation?"
Baili Han smiled faintly, "It won't have any impact. Besides, for my little master's wife, anything is worth it."
Wen Xin's almond-shaped eyes opened slightly, brimming with a hint of shyness, "Little apprentice..."
Baili Han was captivated by the delicate and sweet girl in front of him. He unconsciously raised his hand and gently stroked her cheek. Before he could say anything, he heard her say, "I wish you were my own disciple!"
Baili Han lowered his hand expressionlessly!
“However,” Wen Xin said somewhat dejectedly, “my cultivation is lower than yours, and I don’t know as much as you. Is it wishful thinking for me to want to be your master?”
"Who said that?"
Baili Hanjian frowned, grasped her wrist and gently stroked it, "You are my savior, the debt of saving my life is greater than the heavens, no one is more qualified than you."
Looking at the boy's serious expression, Wen Xin couldn't help but laugh and teased, "They say that a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's own body. Doesn't this count as such?"
Baili Han's thin lips curved slightly, "How could it not be? From the moment my junior master's wife saved me, I have been yours."
Wen Xin: "!!!"
She hadn't expected him to say that, and for a moment she was speechless, unsure how to react.
Baili Han stared at her. "Does Junior Mistress think I'm not good enough?"
Wen Xin quickly shook her head, her face flushed, and said softly, "My little apprentice is very good."
Baili Han chuckled: "Yes, as long as my little master's wife likes it."
Wen Xin: "..."
What do you mean by "as long as she likes it"?
What is he saying?
Unfortunately, before Wen Xin could ask any more questions, Baili Han had already continued his research on alchemy.
She suppressed the flutter in her heart and asked him, "Your spiritual root isn't very suitable for alchemy, is it? And my illness... my great-grandfather once invited the only Saint-level alchemist in the Hunyuan Continent to treat me, but even the best pills can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause."
Unable to bear seeing her downcast, Baili Han placed his palm on her cheek and said firmly, "There will be a way."
Wen Xin looked up and met his gaze.
Baili Han's eyes were deep and gentle. "I will heal you, I promise!"
Wen Xin felt as if her soul was floating on air, and nodded subconsciously.
She blushed and lowered her eyes, her voice sweet and soft, "You can study alchemy, but you can't let it interfere with your cultivation."
Baili Han chuckled softly, "Yes, I'll do whatever my little master's wife says."
Wen Xin couldn't help but glare at him reproachfully.
But, do you listen to everything she says?
Before long, Wen Xin discovered that a certain rebellious teenager was not only studying alchemy, but also a bunch of strange spells, including forbidden ones!
Wen Xin hurriedly pulled him into her room and set up an isolation array, as if she was about to do something bad.
Baili Han's eyes darkened as he ran his fingertips across the girl's delicate skin.
Wen Xin, unaware of his groping, said anxiously, "Little apprentice, how could you touch those forbidden techniques? What if someone finds out..."
Baili Han said, "The Immortal Venerable understands!"
Wen Xin: "..."
Baili Han then said, "The Immortal Venerable has tacitly approved."
Wen Xin: "!"
What agreement did my little apprentice reach with my great-grandfather without my knowledge?
How could the great-grandfather of the leader of the righteous path agree to let Baili Han cultivate forbidden techniques?
Her eyes flickered. "Because of me again?"
Baili Han gently grasped her shoulders, bent down to meet her gaze, and said, "Little Master's wife, whatever kind of magic it is, as long as it's not used to harm people but to save them, then it's not wrong!"
"Or do you not trust me and think I would use forbidden techniques to harm people?"
Wen Xin's almond-shaped eyes were filled with tears as she shook her head. "I didn't think that way. I was just afraid that you and Great-Grandpa would be condemned and rejected by the world because of me."
Baili Han gently hugged her in his arms, "No, little master's wife, you have to believe me."
Wen Xin buried her face in his chest, "I'm sorry, I'm always a burden to you all."
"Little Master's Wife!"
Baili Han stared into her eyes, "In your heart, what am I? And what am I a burden?"
Wen Xin stared at him blankly, "I..."
Baili Han told her, word by word, "Whether it's alchemy or forbidden arts, I'm willing to do it all."
"Now that my junior mistress is saying she's a burden, she's as distant as if her heart has been ripped out!"
Wen Xin shook her head anxiously, "No, little apprentice, I didn't mean that, I was just too, too worried about you!"
Looking at the pure and innocent girl before him, Baili Han's Adam's apple bobbed. "Does my little master's wife care about me a lot?"
Wen Xin's cheeks flushed. "Then...is there even a need to ask?"
Baili Han chuckled lightly, "I'm just insecure!"
Wen Xin tugged at the ribbon on her sleeve and said hesitantly, "Shouldn't I be the one lacking confidence?"
"Little Master's wife, you never need to lack confidence, because you... are unique!"
The young man spoke with gentle eyes and a firm, resolute tone.
Wen Xin's eyes were like water, rippling with bright light, and her smile was innocent and shy.
However, she was still worried, "You're learning so many different things, won't that affect your cultivation?"
Baili Han chuckled, "Little Master's Wife, can't you have a little more faith in me?"
"Swordsmanship training, alchemy, and the like are not difficult for me."
Wen Xin raised her hand to cover his mouth and said irritably, "Little apprentice, be more modest. If outsiders hear this, you'll get beaten up!"
The sweet fragrance wafted from her nose. Baili Han squeezed his fingers together to restrain himself from grabbing her soft hand, pulling her into his arms, and kissing her sweet red lips.
Now all we can do is use public office for private gain...
As if casually about to say something, Baili Han pressed his thin lips to her palm.
Wen Xin pulled her hand back as if she had been electrocuted, her pretty face turning bright red.
She lifted her skirt, turned, and ran, "Little apprentice, you...you must cultivate diligently."
Baili Han: "..."
Miscalculation! The little rabbit ran away!
However, thinking of the girl's shy appearance, Baili Han chuckled softly.
Little Master's wife is so adorable!
How can someone who is so easily embarrassed not be utterly wicked?
I really want to see her blush like a ripe peach, and tease her until she cries. That would be so sweet and juicy.
Xiao Jin: You beast!
Hehe, it wants to see it too!
