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

Chapter 116: Beating

After hearing Lin Chuan's words, Xu Hanyi's originally tense heartstrings relaxed a little. Her eyes were filled with complex emotions, both relief and a subtle uneasiness.

"Chuan'er, you are still young, so there is no need to rush into matters of a Taoist partner. You and Ying'er should focus on improving your cultivation at this stage. Romance will only become a stumbling block to your advancement."

Xu Hanyi looked as if to say, "I'm only thinking of you," and admonished Lin Chuan earnestly.

"Does that mean that as long as my realm is higher, I can marry my senior sister?" Lin Chuan looked at Xu Hanyi with anticipation.

Xu Hanyi: “???”

The temperature in the room dropped sharply again, and the biting chill filled the air, making people shiver uncontrollably.

"Chuan'er."

At Xu Hanyi's cold voice, Lin Chuan's hair stood on end, as if a gust of icy air had run up his spine. He shuddered subconsciously, his expectant expression froze, and a hint of nervousness appeared in his eyes.

"Master, what...what happened?"

"I heard that your injuries have almost recovered?"

"almost……"

"That's perfect. Let's go out for some sparring. Let me see how much you've improved during this time."

"..."

The silver moon hung high in the sky, its cool light casting a shadow over the earth. The stars twinkled like sparkling gems inlaid in the vast sky.

"what!"

In the deserted wilderness, a scream suddenly shattered the tranquility of the night. A young man in black clothes, his face bruised and swollen, was being trampled under the feet of a woman in a white dress.

"Chuan'er, is this all your strength?"

"Master, you are at the Tribulation Realm and you are fighting me at the Golden Core Realm. This is not fair!"

"When fighting against the enemy, will he care what realm you are in?"

"..."

The next morning.

Lin Chuan was wrapped in bandages all over his body, lying on the bed in the inn, motionless.

"Chuan'er, take your medicine." Xu Hanyi held a bowl of elixir and slowly walked towards Lin Chuan who was lying on the bed.

"..."

When Lin Chuan saw Xu Hanyi, he shrank back behind the bed in response, trembling all over.

That sparring match, to be more precise, was nothing short of a brutal beating! Poor Lin Chuan was subjected to a one-sided, frantic beating from Xu Hanyi starting in the middle of the night, which lasted until dawn. That long night, Lin Chuan felt like he was in a nightmare, powerless to fight back, and could only let Xu Hanyi's attacks rain down on him.

"Chuan'er, dear, you know that your master has always loved you very much. It's just that your master has been in a bad mood recently, so..."

Xu Hanyi's heart trembled slightly when she saw Lin Chuan's actions. She didn't know why she had been in such a bad mood last night. It was as if an unknown fire was burning in her heart, making her restless and irritable.

But afterwards, she regretted it very much, especially when she saw Lin Chuan looking at her with fearful eyes, her heart felt as if it was being pricked by needles.

Lin Chuan didn't say anything, not because he didn't want to, but because his mouth was also wrapped in bandages.

Looking at the layers of bandages on Lin Chuan's mouth, Xu Hanyi gently placed the elixir on the table, and then slowly walked towards Lin Chuan.

"Chuan'er. Let me help you solve it..."

When Xu Hanyi was about to reach out and touch Lin Chuan, he found that Lin Chuan's eyes closed instantly, his body was stretched straight like a taut bowstring, and was trembling slightly.

The slender hand she had just stretched out seemed to be under a spell of immobilization, frozen in mid-air, unable to fall for a long time.

"Chuan'er is afraid of me..." Xu Hanyi felt heartbroken.

After a long while, Lin Chuan saw that nothing had happened, so he carefully opened his eyes. He saw Xu Hanyi sitting quietly beside the bed, with red eyes, looking at him with guilt.

"Uh...uh..."

Lin Chuan wanted to say something, but the bandage on his mouth was too tight.

In desperation, he used his spiritual energy to shatter all the bandages. In an instant, Lin Chuan, wearing only a pair of shorts and covered in bruises, appeared in front of Xu Hanyi.

"Master..."

Before Lin Chuan could finish his words, Xu Hanyi threw him onto the bed.

"Chuan'er, please don't be afraid of me, okay? I promise I won't do this again..."

Xu Hanyi was crying like a pear blossom in the rain, and tears as big as beans kept rolling down her pretty face, running straight across her cheeks and falling on Lin Chuan's chest.

"Hi~"

Lin Chuan took a deep breath. It was because his tears dripped onto the wound and it hurt.

"If Chuan'er has any resentment in his heart, then I'll let Chuan'er fight back, okay?"

Seeing that Lin Chuan's body was still trembling, Xu Hanyi no longer cared about her face. She just wanted Lin Chuan to no longer be afraid of her.

"If Master doesn't get up soon, I'm afraid I'll die of pain and become a vengeful spirit."

Lin Chuan frowned. If he could still move his body freely, he really wanted to beat Xu Hanyi up.

If you were to say Xu Hanyi's beating last night was brutal, he didn't suffer any internal injuries, like missing limbs. If you were to say it wasn't brutal, the injuries he suffered were merely superficial, with lingering traces of Frost Sword Intent still lingering within them, making their healing extremely slow. He could only slowly dispel them with his own Yin-Yang Sword Intent.

"Ah? Master... didn't mean it."

Hearing this, Xu Hanyi quickly stood up and looked at Lin Chuan with an apologetic look.

"Forget it, I don't blame Master. If Master feels bad, just agree to what's going on between me and Senior Sister." Lin Chuan shook his head and did not blame Xu Hanyi. Instead, he looked at Xu Hanyi with expectation in his eyes again.

Although Xu Hanyi's agreement or disagreement would not stop his relationship with Jiang Wanying, Jiang Wanying had clearly stated that if they wanted to become Taoist couples, Xu Hanyi's consent was required. Lin Chuan had no choice but to try his best to persuade Xu Hanyi.

"Not urgent……"

Xu Hanyi originally wanted to refuse directly and decisively, but when she met Lin Chuan's eyes that were full of expectation and a little nervousness, she didn't know why, but she changed her words and her tone became a little hesitant.

"If I reject Chuan'er, he will definitely hate me in his heart, right?"

Xu Hanyi was caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, she wanted to keep Lin Chuan for herself. On the other hand, she didn't want Lin Chuan to hate her.

"Sister, oh sister, I really tried my best!"

Seeing that Xu Hanyi's answer was still ambiguous, Lin Chuan sighed inwardly.

"Okay then, I'll listen to Master."

Master said there was no rush, so what could he do? He could only go back and discuss the matter with his senior sister. Perhaps if his senior sister spoke about this, the result would be better. After all, he was beaten up by Xu Hanyi as soon as he mentioned this matter yesterday. Lin Chuan guessed that Xu Hanyi thought he was a yellow-haired man who had abducted her eldest disciple.
