Hearing that Shui Ling'er wao bee his Dao panion, the gloom in Lin Hao's heart vanished pletely.

  After Cui Qing'er and the other demonesses left, he didn't have a single woman by his side. Now with Shui Ling'er, at least he could free his hands.

  Today, he was very happy!

  But no matter hoy he was, he couldn't lose himself.

  The other party chose to follow him at his lowest point, and this kindness was rare and precious.

  So he decided to be ho with her.

  "Lihere's something I o tell you in advance."

  The blush on Shui Ling'er's pretty face hadn't faded. She asked, "What is it?"

  "You should know that I practice dual cultivation, which requires the Primordial Yin of pure female cultivators to quickly enhance my strength.

  So even if we bee Dao panions, I 't promise to be exclusive."

  Shui Ling'er was well aware of the miraculous nature of his dual cultivatiohod, as she was a beneficiary herself. She didn't actually care how many women he would find.

  Otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen this moment to openly decre her iion to be his Dao panion.

  "You don't o worry about that. As long as yood to me, I'm willing to follow you."

  "Of course, I'll be good to you."

  Lin Hao rubbed his hands together, his face full of excitement, and said, "My dear, let's do something we love to do now!"

  "What?" Shui Ling'er didn't quite uand, so she was a bit fused for a moment.

  Just as Lin Hao was about to answer, he received a message from his Master.

  He felt a bit surprised. Wasn't his Master in seclusion? Why was he suddenly summoned?

  Though he couldn't figure it out, he immediately got up and rushed over.

  Before leaving, he instructed Shui Lio wait for him there.

  He flew with his sword to the peak of Great Bamboo Peak.

  Seeing the graceful silhouette of his Master, Lin Hao felt a stir in his heart, w which lucky bastard would end up with such a stunning Master.

  If only I could be that bastard.

  Why do I keep having these wild thoughts? It's sinful, sinful, I must not disrespect my Master...

  Stopping his wild thoughts, Lin Hao approached and asked, "Master, weren't you in seclusion?"

  Feng gyue gazed at the sea of clouds, not turning her head, and said, "The sect is anizing a Demo Hunting petition, delving into the Demon 's ir. Naturally, we 't sit idly by; we must secretly protect the participating disciples."

  Lin Hao felt a bit moved. Although his Master was somewhat unventional, when it came to the sect's great cause, she was very willing to tribute.

  "This time, all the elite disciples of the seeed to participate in the hunt. What are your thoughts?"

  "If you don't want to participate, just go back to your cave dwelling and cultivate in seclusion. With me here, no one would dare say anything."

  Lin Hao knew his Master had that capability, but... but he po participate.

  "Master, I've decided to join this Demo Hunting petition!"

  "Those fools have been spreading rumors about my unclear retionship with the Demon . I'll use this to prove my determination to exterminate demons."

  Hearing Lin Hao's response, Feng gyue showed ion, as if she didn't care about the matter.

  But her as showed she valued Lin Hao as a disciple.

  "This is a Saint Yuan Pill. As long as you're not killed on the spot, it save your life."

  "This is armor made from the scales of a thousand-year-old floon, capable of withstanding a full-force strike from a Golden Elixir cultivator."

  "This Scarlet Spirit Sword, I snatched from an enemy when I was at the Golden Elixir stage..."

  "..."

  Divine ons, armor, pills, talismans... any one of them would make Foundatioablishment cultivators fight tooth and nail.

  Yet his Master bestowed them upon him without a sed thought.

  Lin Hao felt incredibly warm inside. His Master robably the person who treated him the best in this world, bar none.

  He felt guilty for his previous thoughts.

  This was his Master, after all. How could he look at her with the eyes of a man?

  Feng gyue said calmly, "You participate, but it's best to keep a low profile. You must know that you're not only on the Demon 's radar but also a thorn in the side of some people within the sect."

  Lin Hao nodded slightly. He khat his affair with the little fox would surely reach the upper echelons of the Demon . Having pushed their princess, it would be surprising if he wasn't hunted down.

  As for within the sect...

  Not to mention Elder Luo's fa, just the trouble he attracted from his ret rise to fame was enough to keep him busy.

  With wolves and tigers lurking, it seemed every step was difficult.

  Yet Lin Hao still decided to participate.

  First, he had promised Shui Ling'er, and he couldn't let his woman down.

  Sed, his Dao heart wouldn't allow him to retreat.

  Third, he wao see an old acquaintance...

  Just as Lin Hao was lost in thought.

  Feng gyue spoke, "Lin Hao, just remember, when you enter danger, you strike with deadly force, regardless of who the enemy is.

  You don't o be bound by any rules. Do what you want to do, and I'll cover for you!"

  His Master's care and made Lin Hao feel even muilty. He really shouldn't have had those wild thoughts earlier.

  "Go down the mountain and do what you want to do."

  "Hmm?"

  "Why aren't you leaving?"

  Seeing her foolish disciple standing there motionless, Feng gyue couldn't help but ask three times in a row.

  "Master, I'm just not used to it."

  "Not used to what?"

  "Ever since I became your disciple, I've always been spped down the mountain."

  "…"

  This brat, what's in his head? He doesn't seem very bright.

  With a flick of her sleeve, Feng gyue sent Lin Hao tumbling off the cliff.

  "Get lost."
