57: The Master Baby Who Says One Thing but Does Another

Dongfang Yingxue was slightly stunned, and then a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She nodded and said to Chi Lin:

"Yes, indeed. I agree with that point. After all, I have heard of the name of the Jin Mie Cult's Sovereign before..."

Eh...?

Not only Chi Lin, but even Gu Yuan was stunned after hearing Dongfang Yingxue's words.

Why did Revered Master suddenly stop opposing this?

Well... it's not that it's bad, it's just... quite sudden.

After a brief moment of daze, Chi Lin also nodded at Dongfang Yingxue.

"Mm, Sister Dongfang, you are quite reasonable after all. As expected of the Sovereign's Revered Master!"

Dongfang Yingxue only gave a slight smile.

She naturally cared deeply about the relationship between Gu Yuan and Chi Lin.

However, she had a second thought. Since Chi Lin was so obedient to Gu Yuan, and Gu Yuan was the Sovereign of the Jin Mie Cult...

Then wouldn't that mean, to some extent, the Jin Mie Cult belonged to Gu Yuan?

Since that was the case, what reason did she have to oppose it?

Regardless... it was impossible for Gu Yuan to leave her or the Jade Moon Sect.

Dongfang Yingxue was absolutely certain of this one thing.

That was why she didn't voice any opposition when Chi Lin said Gu Yuan belonged to the Jin Mie Cult.

"However, Gu Yuan is, after all, the Young Sect Master of my Jade Moon Sect, so..."

Dongfang Yingxue said with some hesitation.

Perhaps because Gu Yuan was the Sovereign of the Jin Mie Cult, there might be many rumors in the outside world.

But Dongfang Yingxue didn't mind that.

It was just that once Gu Yuan became the Young Sect Master, he would have even more duties to fulfill.

In that case, he certainly wouldn't have any spare time to manage the affairs of the Jin Mie Cult.

Chi Lin let out a giggle upon hearing this, her voice full of pride.

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about that, Sister Dongfang. The Sovereign has already promised me that as long as I want, he will return to the Jin Mie Cult to see me at any time!"

Gu Yuan also dotingly rubbed her little head after hearing that.

"Cough, yeah... it's pretty much like that. Revered Master, you aren't angry anymore, right?"

Although he saw Dongfang Yingxue smile just now, Gu Yuan still felt a bit uneasy, so he asked again.

Dongfang Yingxue only gave a faint smile in response.

"Chi Lin, since that's the case, you are an honored guest of our Jade Moon Sect this time. Well... I still have some matters to discuss with Gu Yuan privately..."

Eh... Chi Lin blinked her eyes, looked at Dongfang Yingxue, and then looked at the Sovereign.

"Alright then, I'll head out first. Sovereign, I'll come find you later!"

Chi Lin had been brought by Gu Yuan to meet Dongfang Yingxue.

She had originally thought there would be some kind of dispute.

But Dongfang Yingxue had directly agreed to the fact that the Sovereign belonged to the Jin Mie Cult.

This completely threw Chi Lin off.

To be honest, she really thought things would turn unpleasant at the start, or that they might even come to blows.

That was why she had asked the Sovereign that question before.

But she hadn't expected the outcome to be like this.

Therefore, when she heard Dongfang Yingxue had something to say to the Sovereign, Chi Lin didn't think too much about it.

In her view, since Dongfang Yingxue was being so cooperative, she couldn't brush off her Face.

So after Chi Lin finished speaking, she waved at Gu Yuan and left.

"What, is your heart still lingering even though she's already gone?"

Seeing Gu Yuan staring blankly at Chi Lin's departing back, Dongfang Yingxue bit her lip and grabbed his ear.

Eh... wait, didn't Master Baby just act very magnanimous?

How come as soon as Chi Lin left, she became so full of jealousy?

It seemed Revered Master wasn't as composed as he had thought.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan gave a mischievous laugh.

He took the opportunity to pull Dongfang Yingxue into his arms, kissed her cheek, and said:

"Master Baby, weren't you acting all indifferent just now? Why have you turned into a vinegar jar now?"

I— Bah!

Dongfang Yingxue was caught off guard and pulled into Gu Yuan's arms, feeling shy to begin with.

Hearing his teasing words now, her heart was even more filled with embarrassment.

"You— what nonsense are you talking about? I am not like that. Rebellious Disciple, you— put me down, mmm..."

Before Dongfang Yingxue could finish, Gu Yuan lowered his head and captured her soft lips.

Mm... sweet and soft.

Gu Yuan also realized that Revered Master was actually a tsundere person as well.

For example, when he first hugged her, she acted disgusted and tried to push him away.

But now that he was kissing her little mouth, she couldn't help but proactively wrap her arms around his neck.

Well, he really liked it this way.

After a long time, Gu Yuan finally released the slightly breathless Dongfang Yingxue.

"Hehe, Master Baby, what did you want to tell me?"

Dongfang Yingxue punched Gu Yuan's chest in shame and anger.

"You— you really are a Rebellious Disciple! You only start talking about business after you're done bullying me?"

Hehe... Gu Yuan didn't deny it, just held Dongfang Yingxue tightly with affection.

"Revered Master, Chi Lin she is actually very well-behaved, and the Jin Mie Cult hasn't done anything bad in recent years. Master Baby, please don't have any prejudice against her."

The reason Gu Yuan wanted to bring Chi Lin to meet Dongfang Yingxue...

Besides needing to explain things to Revered Master, was more so to get Revered Master to accept Chi Lin.

After all, the Jin Mie Cult's reputation in the outside world really wasn't that good.

But only Gu Yuan knew what a cute girl Chi Lin was.

Dongfang Yingxue curled her lip and gave a light snort upon hearing this.

"I naturally know. Since the Sovereign of the Jin Mie Cult is you, it's impossible for the Jin Mie Cult to go down the wrong path."

Eh... hearing Revered Master praise him like this, Gu Yuan actually felt a bit embarrassed.

"Hehe... Revered Master, you flatter me. I'm just adding the finishing touches; the most impressive one is actually Chi Lin."

Dongfang Yingxue was somewhat noncommittal.

It was true that whether it was talent or Luck, Chi Lin was top-tier.

But if there were no Gu Yuan to guide her as the Sovereign...

Perhaps the current Chi Lin would be more likely to become a Devil King.

"I just didn't expect that you would quietly become the Sovereign of the Jin Mie Cult. Gu Yuan, you... how many more things are you hiding from me?"

Dongfang Yingxue murmured while leaning in Gu Yuan's arms.

She had always thought she knew Gu Yuan well enough.

After all, she was the one who brought him back to the Jade Moon Sect.

But now, Dongfang Yingxue suddenly realized she couldn't see through him.

If it weren't for her trust in him, she would have had to deal with Gu Yuan no matter what after he exposed his identity as the Sovereign.

Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then gave a soft sigh.

He cupped Dongfang Yingxue's small Face, made her look at him, and then said seriously:

"Revered Master, I will always be your Disciple, and I will always belong to the Jade Moon Sect."

"No matter how many identities I have, my heart for Revered Master will never change."
