Gu Hanyuan said with a feigned air of indifference mixed with a trace of solemnity and hesitation:

"After parting with you that day, Madam, I was unwilling to give up and broke into a ruin again."

Gu Hanyuan said this.

His eyes flickered for a moment.

He knew his cultivation growth was too fast.

It would definitely arouse a lot of suspicion.

The talk of ruins was the best explanation.

Although he couldn't be sure if such things as ruins existed in this world.

But he had the system.

He could completely forge them.

Tailor-made to trap and kill others.

Sure enough, Huang Rong sensed that something was wrong with Gu Hanyuan.

She asked with a flash of inspiration:

"Wait, did you encounter danger?"

Her expression was full of worry.

Gu Hanyuan sighed slightly.

Staring at Huang Rong's beautiful face, which could not hide her concern.

He smiled warmly:

"Are you worried about me, Madam?"

Huang Rong's eyes drifted.

Lowering her gaze, she said:

"You are Fu'er's sweetheart, I don't want her to be sad."

Gu Hanyuan did not force her to answer.

He smiled softly:

"It was a close call."

Huang Rong was very dissatisfied with Gu Hanyuan's such simple explanation.

She could also see that he didn't want her to worry about him.

The complexity of her eyes increased by another point.

She asked softly:

"And then?"

Gu Hanyuan's voice was gentle and magnetic:

"After some twists and turns, I finally found the immortal technique 'Yin Yang Art' that can allow you, Madam, to stay young forever."

Huang Rong was stunned.

She understood Gu Hanyuan's meaning instantly.

She asked in disbelief:

"For me?"

Gu Hanyuan feigned ease:

"Not entirely for you, Madam, my cultivation also advanced greatly because of it, didn't it?"

He looked at Huang Rong's beautiful eyes with a serious expression:

"Madam, I will teach you the 'Yin Yang Art' now."

"I cannot accept it."

However, Huang Rong refused without hesitation.

She could not bring herself to accept Gu Hanyuan's kindness with peace of mind.

Gu Hanyuan asked teasingly:

"Why? Does Madam think I would use this to threaten you?"

Huang Rong rolled her coquettish eyes helplessly.

Her tone was faint:

"I know you are not that kind of person, Hanyuan."

Gu Hanyuan seemed to have lost the mood for teasing.

He asked seriously:

"Then why?"

Tears shimmered in Huang Rong's eyes.

In her heart.

She thought Gu Hanyuan had disregarded danger to find a technique for her that could keep her young forever.

The more she owed.

The more chaotic her heart became.

It was as if even her guilt towards Guo Jing was about to be covered over.

Huang Rong's bright and beautiful face was full of sadness.

Lowering her head.

Her tone was low:

"Why are you so good to me? The person I love is Brother Jing, there is no result for us."

Gu Hanyuan remained silent.

Such silence made Huang Rong feel even more miserable.

She didn't want to refuse so sternly either.

But she dared not delay any longer.

She was afraid that one day she would really be unable to withstand such pursuit from Gu Hanyuan.

She was afraid that her heart would betray Guo Jing before her body did.

Gu Hanyuan broke this silence himself at this time.

With a lonely, self-deprecating smile:

"Just consider it that I couldn't bear to see your beauty, Madam—which gathers the spirit of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon—fade away just like that."

He comforted her softly:

"As long as you and I have a clear conscience, it is fine."

Huang Rong, however, suddenly looked up upon hearing this.

Raising that face which was charming and beautiful beyond compare.

She said with a complex expression:

"What if I have a guilty conscience?"

Gu Hanyuan was stunned for a moment.

Coming back to his senses, he said hesitantly:

"Madam..."

However, his words were interrupted by Huang Rong.

It was as if Huang Rong, after saying that sentence.

Had let go of something.

She raised her glass with a relaxed expression and smiled:

"Hanyuan, keep me company and drink."

Gu Hanyuan laughed.

And clinked glasses with her.

"Since you want to drink, Madam, I shall naturally keep you company."

As Huang Rong raised her head.

Revealing her delicate and exquisite neck.

The moment she drank the wine. ===== CHAPTER 539 =====
