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

Chapter 388 Phoenix

"I just want Tu Tu to grow up quickly."

Lin Chuan looked calm and composed.

"Are you starting to dislike it now?"

Li Yue narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, and the aura around her suddenly became a little colder.

"If you continue to have such nonsense thoughts, I will punish you."

Lin Chuan's lips curled up slightly, and his tone was gentle but revealed an unquestionable meaning.

"No... stop messing around..."

Li Yue lowered her eyes slightly, and a blush appeared on her fair face that was imperceptible to others.

"I listen to my wife."

Lin Chuan chuckled and slowly rose from Li Yue's arms. After getting dressed, he sat down cross-legged quietly beside her with a calm expression.

After a while, Li Yue slowly stood up, tidied her clothes, and walked to Lin Chuan.

"It's time to find a way out."

She looked at Lin Chuan, emotions surging in her eyes and a complicated expression, and finally she spoke softly.

"As for the stone gate, let's not talk about whether we can open it. Even if we open it, there seems to be no exit outside, and we might encounter those fire people. So we should explore here first to see if there is a way to leave."

Lin Chuan analyzed clearly.

"Well, if we really go out, you..."

Li Yue hesitated for a moment, but couldn't say it out loud. An unpredictable emotion flashed in her eyes.

"Sister Li will always be my wife."

Lin Chuan stood up swiftly, stretched out his big hand, held Li Yue's hand firmly, and walked towards the deep darkness.

"Who is your wife? That's a nice thought."

Li Yue spat lightly and turned her head away slightly, but there was a barely perceptible smile hidden in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. The worry that had just filled her heart had quietly disappeared.

"Sister Li, don't you want to be my wife?"

Lin Chuan's mouth corners turned down slightly, and his face was full of disappointment.

"..."

Li Yue did not answer, but quietly held Lin Chuan's hand tightly, interlocking their fingertips, and let Lin Chuan lead the way forward.

Time passed minute by minute, and the two walked in this dark space, looking for an entrance to exit.

"Well, I have to confess something to Sister Li. Besides Master, there is also..."

Lin Chuan suddenly spoke, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Li Yue.

"She's the one who fought with Xu Hanyi before. If I'm guessing correctly, she's also the master of your maid."

Li Yue spoke softly, without a trace of surprise on her face.

"Sister Li, do you mind?"

Lin Chuan raised his eyes to look at Li Yue, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes, and subconsciously stroked the back of her hand gently.

"If they care, it should be them who care about me. How dare I care about them?" Li Yue turned her face slightly and bit her lower lip.

"Sister Li is becoming more and more likable."

Lin Chuan had a gentle smile on his lips, his eyes fell on Li Yue tenderly, and he spoke softly.

"Tsk, let's make it clear first, I can allow the existence of elder sisters, but as for younger sisters, none of them..."

Li Yue snorted lightly, and a hint of hesitation flashed across her face mid-sentence before she changed her words, "One at most."

"Why?" Lin Chuan frowned slightly, his face full of confusion.

"That maid of yours seems to like you."

Li Yue raised her eyes, looked directly at Lin Chuan, pursed her lips and spoke slowly.

"???"

"Even if she likes me, Sister Li probably wouldn't be willing to give her a place, right?"

Lin Chuan reached out and gently brushed away the hair on Li Yue's temples, his tone hinting at testing.

"She was the one who helped you suppress the drug power in your body the first time. After that, I followed her method to help you suppress the pressure in your body."

Li Yue lowered her head, a blush appeared on her face, and her voice unconsciously became a few degrees lower.

"..."

Lin Chuan was slightly startled and silent for a moment, then he said softly: "If I can successfully get out, I will ask her what she thinks."

"It's up to you. Anyway, there can only be one sister. If I find out there's another one..."

Before Li Yue could finish her words, she noticed that Lin Chuan beside her suddenly stopped.

"This is...Phoenix?"

She narrowed her eyes slightly, followed Lin Chuan's gaze, and soon noticed the pattern on the stone wall.

"It seems that the origin of this relic is recorded here."

Lin Chuan's eyes were focused as he moved slowly along the stone wall.

"Human, sacrifice, snake, phoenix, flame, stone gate..."

"Could this be Nirvana? Could it be that this isn't some immortal relic at all, but the Phoenix's Nirvana?!"

Li Yue's eyes were fixed on the pattern on the stone wall, and she suddenly exclaimed.

"Phoenix? Isn't it said that this kind of mythical beast only exists in the fairy world?"

Lin Chuan frowned slightly, an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Not necessarily. The Canglong Holy Land currently possesses an immortal weapon made from a complete dragon skeleton. It is said that their ancestor discovered it in a ruin."

Li Yue shook her head and spoke methodically.

"A giant snake ate people, and to save their lives, people began to sacrifice living people. Then a phoenix descended from the sky and killed the giant snake, but for some reason, it also wanted to die, so it achieved nirvana here."

Lin Chuan's eyes were as sharp as torches, fixed tightly on the pattern on the stone wall. As his sight wandered, the outline of a story gradually emerged in his mind.

"The group of flame people outside should be the ones left to guard the Phoenix."

Li Yue frowned slightly and looked towards the entrance.

"I heard that mythical beasts like the phoenix are born in the immortal realm. If this is really the phoenix's nirvana, then aren't we doomed?"

Lin Chuan frowned, looking worried.

"Not necessarily. This mural is very old, most likely a relic from ancient times. After so much time has passed, the phoenix has probably failed in its nirvana."

Li Yue shook her head slightly, her eyes slowly sweeping across the mural.

"Then shall we continue exploring?" Lin Chuan looked into the deeper darkness.

"How about you stay here and wait for me? I'll go check out the front first."

Li Yue suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and spoke softly.

For such a relic, if Phoenix really had any backup plan, she wouldn't be able to escape unscathed, let alone Lin Chuan.

"My wife, if you say something like this again next time, I will use the family rules."

Lin Chuan pretended to be displeased and patted Li Yue lightly.

"Well, then let's..."

Li Yue exclaimed softly, a faint blush on her face, and then she let Lin Chuan pull her forward.

Lin Chuan walked steadily forward, using his spiritual vision to gaze into the distance. Unfortunately, this space was too vast, and it took a long time before he finally reached the end.

What comes into view is a stone gate full of cracks and looking dilapidated.

"Could this stone door also be destroyed by that heavenly punishment?"

Lin Chuan quickly walked up to the stone gate, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked back and forth at the damaged part of the stone gate, his face full of confusion.
