Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

Chapter 661 Reconciliation between Master and Disciple

"Master, please, please spare my junior brother," Guo Zhixi said weakly, lying in Lin Ping's arms.

Seeing her weak appearance, Lin Ping gritted his teeth. He really wanted to hit Chu Rujun, but he was afraid of being condemned by his conscience.

Ultimately, it was all his fault.

Without him, Chu Rujun wouldn't have been angry, and Guo Zhixi wouldn't have risked her life to save him.

"Let him go? Several disciples of Lotus Palace died tragically, why didn't he show mercy?" Chu Rujun said, her voice trembling.

To be honest, she had done everything she could for Lin Pingren, and even though she knew he was an undercover agent, she still protected him.

But now that Lin Ping has killed the Lotus Palace disciples, he could destroy the Lotus Palace at any time.

As the peak master of Cold Moon Peak, Chu Rujun has a responsibility to protect the safety of Lotus Palace.

"If I don't kill them, it will be my disciple who dies. I, Lin Ping, am not the kind of person who lets others slaughter me." Lin Ping said sternly, "If I were the one who dies today, would you kill Tang Jianshan and the others to avenge me?"

These words startled Chu Rujun; she had never really thought about this question.

As Lin Ping said, this is a life-or-death battle; if you don't kill the enemy, the enemy will kill you.

It's unreasonable to accuse someone of indiscriminate killing simply because he won.

“Even so, you shouldn’t have launched an attack on Lotus Palace,” Chu Rujun argued.

"Do you know that Lü Yan led an army of 30,000 to attack Yingtian Prefecture? The Lotus Palace of today is no longer the Lotus Palace you are trying to protect. They are wolves in sheep's clothing and want to overthrow the monarch's rule, disregarding the common people of the world."

Even so, are you still going to aid and abet evil?

These repeated questions silenced Chu Rujun.

As the peak master of Cold Moon Peak, she knew the wolfish ambitions of Lotus Palace.

But she was, after all, just a woman, with little influence and power, and couldn't stop it from happening.

Therefore, she did not allow the disciples of Hanyue Peak to make a move.

"Enough! Quickly heal Zhixi's injuries!" Chu Rujun said sternly, but secretly sheathed the Vermilion Bird Sword.

Since Lotus Palace is not the same as before, there is nothing to miss. On the contrary, these two disciples are my heart and soul.

She regretted attacking Lin Ping, and even more so, she regretted hurting Guo Zhixi.

"Senior sister's wound is very deep and needs stitches." After saying that, Lin Ping carried Guo Zhixi into the deserted dense forest.

"Should we continue taking off your clothes?"

Guo Zhixi blushed and asked shyly.

This was a play she and Lin Ping staged, deliberately trapping Chu Rujun without actually harming her heart meridian.

However, the wound is real and needs stitches.

"We can't sew this undergarment into your flesh, can we? Don't worry, Senior Sister, I'll sew it on for you while blindfolded." Lin Ping said this while blindfolding herself.

Guo Zhixi pouted and reluctantly took off the last layer of clothing.

"I didn't believe your nonsense. How can you stitch things up with your eyes covered? You're getting off easy, you lecherous scoundrel. You came to see your senior sister and then came to see me."

"I'm only trying to heal my senior sister's injuries; I have absolutely no dirty or filthy thoughts." Lin Ping swore to the heavens, "Don't worry, senior sister, I won't look at you inappropriately, much less touch you inappropriately."

Lin Ping's technique was quite skillful, and Guo Zhiqian felt very comfortable. At most, she would frown slightly, but she didn't make a sound from beginning to end.

The wound was stitched up after an incense stick had burned.

"Senior sister, you still need to pretend to be weak, lest Master discover any flaws," Lin Ping kindly reminded her, his restless hands starting to grope around again.

"I shouldn't have taken that sword for you!" Guo Zhixi said angrily, pouting.

"Wouldn't my senior sister be heartbroken if I died?"

Lin Ping asked, shamelessly.

"I will die with you, so I can have you all to myself," Guo Zhixi said tenderly.

Lin Ping was defeated; he was outmaneuvered. He never expected Guo Zhixi to be so adept at applying what she had learned.

"Zhiqian, are you alright?" Chu Rujun asked, feeling guilty.

"Master, I'm scared..." Guo Zhixi said softly, her pale face truly heartbreaking.

"Don't be afraid, with your master here, you'll be fine." After saying that, Chu Rujun tried to channel energy into Guo Zhixi's body.

Using luck to heal wounds is not very effective.

While an input of energy can indeed make a person feel energetic, it does absolutely nothing to help heal wounds.

Guo Zhiqian gently pushed away Chu Rujun's hand, shook her head and said, "I am not afraid of death, but I am afraid that you and your junior brother will become enemies and never be able to go back to the days when we ate together and practiced swordsmanship together."

Girls have shallow eyes, and tears started flowing as they talked.

"Don't worry, Master won't make things difficult for your junior brother anymore," Chu Rujun comforted him.

It must be said that Guo Zhixi's acting skills are even better than Lin Ping's.

Lin Ping admired her immensely and secretly gave her a thumbs up.

“Senior Sister’s heart meridian has been severed. I’m afraid… I’m afraid…” Lin Ping shook his head and said, “It’s all my fault for being so incompetent that I couldn’t even fulfill her last wish.”

"One last wish? Didn't I forgive you?" Chu Rujun asked curiously.

Lin Ping reminded her, "Senior Sister wants the four of us, master and disciples, to reunite."

"The four of them, master and disciples? Yun Ying? That's right, there's also Yun Ying!" Chu Rujun suddenly realized.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ping smiled smugly.

One of the main reasons he attacked Lianhuahong was to rescue Jiang Yunying.

“But Yunying has entered Xuanyin Peak and cannot leave for three years,” Chu Rujun said in a low voice.

"That's easy. I'll go and pluck the Palace Master's beard right now and make him let Senior Sister leave," Lin Ping said hurriedly, waiting for Chu Rujun to lead the way.

Upon hearing that Lin Ping was going to pull the Palace Master's beard, Chu Rujun was startled. But then she thought about it and realized it didn't seem like a big deal. After all, the Lotus Palace was under Lin Ping's control, and the Palace Master alone couldn't turn the tide.

"Even if we defeat the Palace Master, what then? Yun Ying still won't be able to get out," Chu Rujun said evasively.

Lin Ping, however, was an impatient man and had already selected over a thousand elite soldiers.

"Please lead the way, Master, to fulfill Senior Sister's wish," Lin Ping said respectfully, bowing deeply.

Chu Rujun knew that Lin Ping was the kind of person who wouldn't give up until he was completely convinced of his goal, so she could only lead the way.

Under her leadership, the soldiers crossed the drawbridge connecting the inner gate and passed through three towering peaks, finally arriving at the legendary Xuan Yin Peak.

"This is Xuan Yin Peak?" Lin Ping was taken aback as he stared at the bottomless cliff.

He did see a mountain peak on the other side of the cliff, but crossing that hundreds-of-meters-long cliff was no easy task.

Moreover, the cliff is flanked by towering cliffs with only a one-meter gap in the middle, not even big enough for a hot air balloon to fit through.

Looking at the bottomless valley, Lin Ping gasped.

A hint of worry crossed his eyes as he spread his hands and asked, "Can we really make it across? Are you sure my wife didn't fall?"

If Jiang Yunying has already met with an accident, then everything he has done will have been in vain.
