Chapter 494

He smiled indifferently:

"Senior, you're overthinking it. I just can't bear to see your beauty fade away."

Lin Chaoying felt the contact point growing hotter and hotter.

This unfamiliar feeling made her heart panic,

and she couldn't help but say coquettishly:

"Let me go before you say that, then it might have a bit of credibility."

However, what Lin Chaoying didn't expect was

that Gu Hanyuan really did let her go just like that.

He asked calmly:

"Do you believe me now?"

Lin Chaoying turned her head away:

"I don't."

Even though the two had separated,

Lin Chaoying could still feel the lingering warmth.

She said with a complex expression:

"I'm so much older than you; why be obsessed with me? Long'er and Mochou are still waiting for you."

"Senior is talented and beautiful; why belittle yourself?"

Gu Hanyuan first praised Lin Chaoying again,

making her face turn slightly red,

and then said solemnly:

"Can we just treat it as a thank-you gift for when Senior helped me achieve the Grandmaster realm?"

Lin Chaoying was stunned,

knowing what Gu Hanyuan was talking about.

It was she who had forced Gu Hanyuan to break through to the Grandmaster realm.

However, this matter had always been a source of guilt for Lin Chaoying.

Forcing a breakthrough was not easy at all.

One wrong move and it would end in severed meridians.

She hadn't expected it to be used by Gu Hanyuan as a bargaining chip to persuade her.

She said with a gloomy expression:

"That was your own talent; what does it have to do with me?"

Gu Hanyuan looked seriously into Lin Chaoying's beautiful eyes:

"Without Senior's help, I might not have obtained this immortal fate."

Lin Chaoying's heart stirred,

and she asked with concern:

"Did you encounter danger?"

Gu Hanyuan feigned a lingering fear,

and cajoled Lin Chaoying:

"Yes, I was lucky to survive. So, I still have to repay Senior's kindness."

Lin Chaoying couldn't refuse Gu Hanyuan's good intentions.

She thanked him with a blushing face:

"Alright, thank you."

However, Gu Hanyuan acted as if he were annoyed:

"Why is Senior so distant?"

Lin Chaoying said unpleasantly:

"Don't you always call me Senior? I haven't been able to afford to be your Senior for a long time."

Gu Hanyuan smiled warmly:

"Then how about I call you Lin Shiyin?"

The blush on Lin Chaoying's jade face deepened,

showing a shyness like that of her youth.

She turned her head away:

"How you call me is your business. What does it have to do with me?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled warmly:

"Then can Lin Shiyin learn my 'Yin-Yang Art' now?"

Lin Chaoying responded softly:

"Mm."

Since she had already agreed,

there was nothing to be coy about.

Lin Chaoying was a broad-minded woman,

but she had been shocked by Gu Hanyuan's sudden idea,

which made her seem extremely hesitant and resistant.

Gu Hanyuan taught the "Yin Chapter" of the "Yin-Yang Art" to Lin Chaoying.

Lin Chaoying exclaimed:

"It really is a magical cultivation method."

Gu Hanyuan smiled warmly:

"Lin Shiyin will naturally feel the changes after practicing for a while."

Lin Chaoying said with a shy expression:

"You'd better stop calling me Sister; it's too awkward."

She hadn't felt it before because she just wanted to resolve the awkwardness,

but now that she had calmed down, she felt that such an address was particularly jarring.

Gu Hanyuan asked hesitantly:

"Then what does Lin Shiyin think I should call you?"

Lin Chaoying sighed gloomily:

"Just follow Long'er and Mochou and call me Granny."

However, Gu Hanyuan disagreed:

"That won't do; it makes Lin Shiyin sound old."

Lin Chaoying glared at Gu Hanyuan reproachfully:

"I am old, is there a problem with that?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled playfully:

"How about I call you Fairy Lin?"

Lin Chaoying couldn't withstand such teasing,

and said helplessly with a blushing face:

"Don't! I'm afraid of you."

Gu Hanyuan looked at the rating given by the system with satisfaction.

Lin Chaoying had started to waver, more or less.

The cultivation of the furnace could begin.

Lin Chaoying couldn't handle being alone with Gu Hanyuan anymore,

so she proposed first:

"I'll go call Long'er and Mochou out."

Gu Hanyuan, however, said with some loss:

"Lin Shiyin, are you still unwilling to let me enter the Ancient Tomb?"
