Qiu Yue wrestled with her inner struggle, then looked towards Lin Chen, wanting to take one more look at this youth she might use a Talisman Inscription to kill.
However, when Qiu Yue's gaze fell upon Lin Chen, her heart suddenly trembled, and she was immediately thrown into chaos.
What on earth was she thinking? She was considering making a move against Lin Chen to kill him.
If she really did that, even if Wang Tong didn't know, she would fall into eternal regret, because no matter how annoying Lin Chen was, he was still her Grandmaster.
If she acted to kill Lin Chen, wouldn't that make her a disciple who betrays Master and Grandmaster?
Qiu Yue quickly shook her head, secretly frightened, wondering how she could have such thoughts.
Then Qiu Yue turned her gaze to Tan Yingping, seeing this scoundrel holding her wrist, preventing her from going to Lin Chen's side, she hurriedly broke free and looked at Tan Yingping with a displeased expression.
After all, if not for Tan Yingping's instigation, how could she have had such thoughts? It was all related to Tan Yingping.
"What's wrong, Sister Qiu Yue?"
Tan Yingping saw Qiu Yue break free and head towards Lin Chen, feeling very unwilling. He wanted to pull Qiu Yue back, but she wouldn't let him succeed.
Tan Yingping thought he had persuaded Qiu Yue and was looking forward to her using a Talisman to kill Lin Chen, but unexpectedly, she changed her mind.
Evidently, Qiu Yue was approaching Lin Chen to heed his words like a command, not to attack upon getting close.
After all, for Qiu Yue, who had a killing move Talisman, the current distance was enough to kill Lin Chen using a Talisman, there was no need to get closer, and getting too close while using a Talisman might hurt herself.
Therefore, from this judgment, approaching Lin Chen was not to make a move to kill him.
"You aren't going to kill me? This is a rare good opportunity; there are so many helpers to assist you here."
Lin Chen watched Qiu Yue approach and asked coldly.
Just now, he observed Qiu Yue's expression and, at least for a moment, the woman really had thoughts of killing him.
It's just unknown why she suddenly changed her mind.
Lin Chen had secretly decided that as soon as Qiu Yue made a move, he would immediately use the Great Qiankun Escape Talisman to teleport away from here.
After all, regarding the power of the Talismans refined by Wang Tong, Lin Chen had no doubt about their ability to kill him.
Bear in mind, those Talismans were capable of killing the Qingbi Giant Python right in front of him; against Wang Tong's Talismans, Lin Chen wouldn't have any wishful thinking or make any resistance.
He just didn't expect that Qiu Yue seemed to have changed her mind.
"I do indeed find you displeasing, but regardless, my Master acknowledged you as a teacher, thus you are my Grandmaster. I can never do such a thing as betraying Master and Grandmaster, otherwise, I would never forgive myself."
Qiu Yue looked at Lin Chen, bit her teeth, and finally spoke her true thoughts.
Saying these words, Qiu Yue was without pretense, but rather had an upright demeanor.
Hearing Qiu Yue's words, Lin Chen was slightly taken aback, a bit shocked inside.
He had considered various reasons why Qiu Yue wouldn't make a move against him; he thought she was unsure of his trump card and feared an unsuccessful strike, so she didn't dare act, but unexpectedly it was this reason that stopped her.
Looking at Qiu Yue, Lin Chen shook his head secretly, fearing that what he previously considered, this girl wouldn't even think about. After all, in her view, with the powerful Talisman refined by Wang Tong in her hand, if she made a move, it would certainly kill him.
Qiu Yue was never one for deep consideration; she acted impulsively, filled with a sense of justice, doing things purely by heart, often making her like to meddle.
Just like last time, when she thought Lin Chen bullied Yang Wenshan, leading Yang Wenshan and the others to seek justice at the Yellow Hall for Yang Wenshan.
So, making her someone who betrays Master and Grandmaster wasn't something she could do.
However, it was precisely this point that instead saved her life.
If Qiu Yue really made a move against Lin Chen earlier, after Lin Chen escaped and encountered Qiu Yue again, many ways would let this woman pay with her life.
Even after leaving these ruins, Lin Chen could tell Wang Tong about it, and Wang Tong would never tolerate a betrayer who brought disgrace to Master and Grandmaster. Qiu Yue surely wouldn't survive.
After all, in the Cultivation World, betraying Master and Grandmaster is the most taboo; everyone would loathe it.
"Heh, I thought you'd forgotten I was your Grandmaster."
Lin Chen looked at Qiu Yue and said calmly.
Since the woman didn't make a move against him, Lin Chen naturally wouldn't take her life, as Qiu Yue was his disciple-grandchild.
"Hmph."
Qiu Yue snorted upon hearing Lin Chen's words immediately.
Though she had to respect Lin Chen due to his status, inside she truly didn't comply; she didn't acknowledge Lin Chen, considering it a duty by Master's order.
"Hmph to what, you're not convinced?"
Lin Chen looked at Qiu Yue and said coldly.
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Qiu Yue immediately fell silent, showing a wronged look with her eyes a bit moist.
"Fine, this time you had killing intent towards me, I will consider it as Tan Yingping's interference incitement, and not pursue it, but let there be a next time, I will not let you off easily."
Lin Chen looked at Qiu Yue and spoke sternly.
Hearing Lin Chen dare to lecture her, Qiu Yue felt curious inside, was Lin Chen not afraid she'd really lose her temper and use a Talisman to kill him?
Bear in mind, she was indeed capable of doing such a thing.
"Lin Chen, I'm very curious, are you really not afraid I'd disregard the shame of betraying Master and Grandmaster, to use a Talisman to kill you?"
Qiu Yue looked at Lin Chen and asked indifferently.
"Heh, with you, you still can't kill me."
Lin Chen looked at Qiu Yue and said calmly.
"Hmph, you underestimate me too much. In my hand is the Talisman refined by my Master; see that Qingbi Jiao Snake over there? I killed it with a Talisman. You're a bit too confident."
Qiu Yue looked at Lin Chen, speaking with disdain, while pointing at the distant Qingbi Giant Python, quite proudly.
