Gu Xingyuan's voice was very soft when he spoke, and it sounded like he was asking him, but there was an inexplicably hidden, secret, and imperceptible bewitching taste in his tone.

Lin Jianxue's heart beat fast at that moment, a certain sharp intuition was faster than her thoughts, and she was alerted to danger first.

After those few seconds of subtle silence, Lin Jianxue lowered her eyes, suppressed her beating heartbeat, and whispered unnaturally: "Forget it, maybe it's not something important."

As soon as the voice fell, he heard the other party seem to have chuckled, and suddenly the roots of his ears burned uncontrollably, spreading all the way to his chaotic brain.

The heat of Gu Xingyuan's breathing brushed against his ears, and he said clearly to him word by word: "This kind of thing... Master has also used it."

"..." Lin Jianxue's mind almost froze, and the other party's words echoed repeatedly in her ears, and she didn't even know when the other party left.

He didn't even notice that the culprit's box in his hand was also unknowingly taken away by the other party.

On the second day, the once-in-a-hundred-year Demon World Conference finally started.

The main purpose of each conference is to select A, B, and C from thousands of demon cultivators, and the registered demon cultivators will compete one-on-one, and the winner will advance to the next round of competition.

The place of the competition is a huge platform, which can accommodate thousands of people standing, and the ground is painted with a talisman array, which can prevent the competition on the platform from spreading to the surroundings.

When the demon sect led the two masters and disciples to arrive, the platform was surrounded by demon cultivators from all directions, with strangely shaped flags dancing wildly, the noise was loud, and the scene was very lively.

Yaozong placed the two of them on the stand, near his seat, and said to them with a smile: "This perspective is the best, please do whatever you want."

Gu Xingyuan thanked Yaozong casually, and sat down on his seat.

There is a long table in front of the two of them, on which there are various snacks and fruits. Looking around, the situation of the competition below is also clear at a glance.

Gu Xingyuan turned his head to look at Lin Jianxue, who had a calm expression on his cold face, as if it was no different from usual.In fact, judging from the recent period, Lin Jianxue's sleep time was slightly longer than before, and she seemed to be particularly prone to sleepiness.

His eyes flicked across Lin Jianxue's fair and delicate skin, and landed on the corners of her soft, pale lips, and he couldn't help but said: "Master, you only drank half a bowl of porridge this morning, do you want to eat something more? "

Lin Jianxue didn't look at him, she yawned unconsciously and said, "No, I'm not hungry."

Seeing him yawning, Gu Xingyuan suddenly leaned closer, brushing the hair next to his ear with cool fingers naturally: "Is Master sleepy? I did get up early today, do you want to go back and rest?"

It's clearly just words of ordinary concern, but the speaker is a little closer, and I feel a scalding heat, which is transmitted along with the touching fingertips of the other party.Lin Jianxue's body froze imperceptibly, she pushed the opponent's hand away calmly, and said calmly, "I'm not sleepy."

In fact, until yesterday when she was sleeping, Lin Jianxue's mind was uncontrollably echoing Gu Xingyuan's last words.

used...

When did you use it and how did you use it?

This kind of question can't be asked at all, but it makes people think about it uncontrollably.The fragment that was deliberately buried in the depths of memory, as that sentence was forcibly dug out, played back repeatedly in my mind.

It was not until the middle of the night that Lin Jianxue reluctantly fell asleep.

"The taste of this fruit is relatively sweet, do you want to taste it, Master?"

When Lin Jianxue came back to his senses, Gu Xingyuan picked out a bright yellow fruit from the plate and handed it to him.

Lin Jianxue straightened her face like a cover-up, took a bite of the fruit, and frowned imperceptibly, remembering something, her fingers unconsciously touched her abdomen.

The following competition has already started, and there are noises all around, and two demon cultivators stepped onto the stage.Lin Jianxue held the fruit in her hand without moving, Gu Xingyuan saw it and said, "What's wrong?"

Lin Jianxue unnaturally removed her hand from her abdomen, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she raised her chin to signal: "Who do you think will win between these two?"

Gu Xingyuan looked at the two people on the stage, and said indifferently: "It should be the one on the left, that person..."

Lin Jianxue flipped her fingers, and the bitten fruit rolled to her feet, and then rolled into the invisible shadow.

"...so he has a better chance of winning." Gu Xingyuan withdrew his gaze and looked at Lin Jianxue, "What do you think, Master?"

Lin Jianxue pursed her lips and said vaguely, "Well, almost."

After finishing speaking, she felt that the other party's eyes were fixed on the ground beside him. Lin Jianxue suddenly became a little nervous, as if she had done something bad and was afraid of being discovered.

The next moment, the other party leaned over and picked up something from his feet.Lin Jianxue's back stiffened for a moment, and then she heard a faint groaning sound.

A small green thing came into view, its body was pinched by Gu Xingyuan's fingers, and its four paws flapped vigorously in the air.

This is... sapphire?

Lin Jianxue was taken aback for a moment when Qingyu met his gaze, screaming and trying to throw herself into his arms.Gu Xingyuan narrowed his eyes, and said coldly: "You still dare to show up?"

Qingyu trembled, looked at Lin Jianxue pitifully, and screamed, as if desperately trying to say something.

Lin Jianxue said, "Put him down."

Gu Xingyuan glanced at Qingyu coldly, finally let go of his hand, and threw him to the ground.

The moment she landed, Qingyu returned to her adult body, her small body hugged Lin Jianxue's clothes, and said aggrievedly: "I'm sorry for what happened before! My father has already trained me, I shouldn't have helped the bad guys harm you! I , I don’t know that’s the case, that person lied to me and said that you are sick, and you have to do this to save you..."

Dad should be the Demon Sect, and what he said before should refer to helping Fu Ling cast the blood curse.

But it doesn't matter anymore, and I probably guessed that Qingyu didn't know about it before.

"It's nothing, let's forget about the previous things." Lin Jianxue said.

When Qingyu heard this, her round eyes lit up a little, as if she was a little happy: "Mr. Wuxian, you are so kind... By the way, have you recovered from your illness?"

Lin Jianxue paused.

Qingyu didn't notice it, and continued to say: "Before I found out that there was no spiritual power in the spiritual veins in your body, that person said, it's not that there is no spiritual power in your body, it's just—"

"Yu'er." A deep voice sounded.

Turning his head to look, Yaozong in black robes was looking at this side, frowning and beckoning to Qingyu: "The confinement you were punished for is not over yet, do you want to add another month?"

Qingyu shrank immediately, with a look of despair on her face, almost crying: "Oh, I was wrong, I, I just wanted to come out and apologize..."

Before he finished speaking, he was already carried away by the Yaozong.

Lin Jianxue watched Qingyu's figure disappear from sight, and the tense lines on her back relaxed again.When he turned around, he bumped into Gu Xingyuan's probing eyes, and was startled.

"Master," Gu Xingyuan looked at him, his eyes were calm, but there was a sense of sharpness that cannot be ignored, "Did Renqing say something to you?"

The corners of Lin Jianxue's mouth tightened almost immediately.

He staggered the other party's direct gaze, lowered his eyes, and said calmly: "Nothing."

The moment the words came out, the light in Gu Xingyuan's eyes dimmed a bit.

There seemed to be a sigh in the air, and Lin Jianxue felt that the other party held his hand, and the hot fingertips rubbed against his skin, evoking a slight itchiness.

"During these days, I always feel that Master seems to be hiding something from me." Gu Xingyuan seemed a little disappointed in his tone, "If there are any concerns or troubles, why didn't Master tell the apprentice?"

apprentice……

Yes, their relationship is clearly a master-student relationship.

Lin Jianxue suddenly felt that the words "master and apprentice" were extremely dazzling.

When he thought about the reason for the loss of spiritual power and the creature conceived in his body at this moment, he felt a little ridiculous.

What made him feel at a loss the most was the strange fluster that had become more and more uncontrollable in recent days.

Lin Jianxue's eyelashes trembled, and she wanted to withdraw her hand, but unexpectedly, the other party held it tightly, and she didn't intend to let go at all.

Gu Xingyuan's voice was very soft, with a sense of grievance, which made people's heart tremble: "Doesn't Master not trust disciples?"

Lin Jianxue retorted almost subconsciously: "No..."

Immediately realizing something was wrong, he hurriedly changed his words: "It's nothing, I have nothing to hide from you."

Gu Xingyuan looked at him quietly.

The hustle and bustle of the surroundings continued, but it seemed that nothing could enter the ears of the two of them.

For a moment, Gu Xingyuan lowered his eyes and sighed: "Master, you can say whatever you want. This disciple doesn't want to force Master, but just wants to relieve Master's worries."

He paused, as if thinking of something, and smiled at Lin Jianxue: "After the demon world conference is over and we return to the fairy world, we can use the method in the ancient book to respect the spiritual power of the teacher. At that time, the master will not have to worry about the spiritual power. I'm worried."

Lin Jianxue's eyes changed, she looked at Gu Xingyuan, and answered after a long time: "Okay."

The demon world conference went on like this day by day, watching the competition was sometimes interesting and sometimes boring.It's just that Lin Jianxue often looked at Gu Xingyuan distracted, not knowing what she was thinking, and quickly looked away before being noticed by the other party.

In a blink of an eye, it was the last day of the Demon World Conference.

On this day, the final winner was determined, and the demon cultivators who won the top [-] places celebrated together and participated in a grand dinner.

Yaozong handed the wine in front of the two of them, and said with a smile: "This is the wine brewed by Yaozong Palace for a hundred years. You two have a taste. How does it compare to the good wine in the fairy world?"

Gu Xingyuan smiled, took the wine glass handed to Lin Jianxue, and said, "Immortal Li Han is not good at drinking, so I will drink it for him."

After all, he raised his head and drank the two glasses of wine.

Yaozong praised him again and again, exchanged some pleasantries, and then left.

The two sat in a corner of the dinner party. Gu Xingyuan looked at Lin Jianxue's slightly tired face, and couldn't help reaching out to cover his slightly thin shoulders, and said softly: "I'm really tired from watching the competition these days. Go back and rest... Tomorrow we will go back to the Immortal Realm."

Lin Jianxue turned her head to look at him, probably very happy, a fleeting smile flashed in her usually cold and indifferent eyes.

Lin Jianxue rarely smiled.

This smile is like a bit of tenderness melting in the sharp frost, and there is a kind of radiant, indescribable beauty between the eyebrows and eyes.

Gu Xingyuan's heart skipped a beat, and he felt as if he had stopped breathing for a moment.

"No hurry." Lin Jianxue took the wine glass from the other party, refilled it, and said calmly, "It's rare to come to the demon world, so let's stay a little longer tonight."

"...Master?"

"It's okay to drink a little." He picked up the wine glass and took a sip, the corners of his soft lips glowed with a subtle luster in the bright and dim lights.

"It seems to be okay." There was a hazy watery light in his eyes, which became moving and somewhat unreal.

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, he casually handed the rest of the wine to Gu Xingyuan, and said softly, "Aren't you going to drink?"
