A blind man cultivates immortality and witnesses the great secret of the holy maiden in her bridal c

Meanwhile, inside Gao Rushi's cave.

Deep within the cave, there is a natural hot spring, its steam rising and emitting a faint sulfurous aroma.

Qingyun was holding a clean brocade cloth, carefully wiping the stone table and chairs in the cave, removing the accumulated dust one by one. Then she turned around and walked to the hot spring, waved her hand and released a burst of spiritual energy to drain the old water in the pool, and then brought in clear mountain spring water to refill the hot spring.

Gao Rushi sat on a stone bench to the side, watching Qingyun's busy figure, her face full of guilt. She quickly said, "Qingyun, you don't need to do these trivial things, really you don't need to. You saved me back then, and now I helped you kill Du Juenian. We're even now, you don't need to feel indebted to me."

"Senior Sister Rushi, I didn't do all this because you saved me!" Qingyun shook her head, turned around and smiled sweetly at Gao Rushi, her eyes sincere. "I genuinely feel that these are things I should have done."

She walked over to Gao Rushi, took her arm, and gently squeezed it, her tone playful: "Because from now on, you are the new master of Talisman Peak! As a disciple of Talisman Peak, isn't it only natural for me to serve the peak master?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Rushi shook her head helplessly and sighed deeply: "I really have no desire for the position of peak master, and I even feel somewhat resistant to it. After experiencing so much, I really don't want to deal with these mundane sect affairs anymore."

"Sister Rushi, I understand what you're thinking." Qingyun stopped what she was doing and looked at her seriously. "But the past is the past. You're still so young and so strong. You have a long life ahead of you. You can't keep being confused like this. You have to find something to do and give yourself something to look forward to."

She paused, then continued her analysis: "Moreover, such a major change has occurred on Talisman Peak, and the other elders are still in the dark. Currently, within Talisman Peak, besides you, neither Chen Yang nor I are qualified or capable of becoming the peak master. Only you becoming the peak master is the rightful and universally accepted choice! After we leave, the other elders and the sect leader will not suspect you."

Qingyun changed the subject, a sly smile playing on her lips: "Besides, now that you're the peak master, Chen Yang is your disciple. You can even let him play with the peak master's token; he'll definitely jump for joy!"

Upon hearing the name "Chen Yang," Gao Rushi's cheeks flushed slightly, her eyes became somewhat unnatural, and she subconsciously lowered her head.

Qingyun saw all of this and understood. She gently put her arm around Gao Rushi's shoulder and said in a tender and sincere tone, "Sister Rushi, I know about what happened between you and Chen Yang. I am truly grateful to you for sacrificing so much to save me."

"Chen Yang is a good person, and a man with unlimited potential." She continued, "Although his cultivation level is not yet top-notch, his combat power far surpasses that of his peers, and his future is absolutely bright! If you and I can wholeheartedly guide him, we will truly be a family from now on, supporting each other and no longer having to fight alone."

Gao Rushi's cheeks flushed even more. She raised her head, her eyes filled with a complex emotion, and said softly, "Chen Yang is already very strong. His combat power is far above mine. It's just that his cultivation level is still somewhat lacking."

"This is our chance!" Qingyun chuckled, her tone slightly encouraging. "His cultivation hasn't caught up yet, so we can accompany him, teach him, and watch him grow step by step. When he becomes powerful and a giant in his own right, he certainly won't let us down!"

She held Gao Rushi's hand and said earnestly, "Sister Rushi, we women ultimately need someone to rely on. Of course, with our abilities, we can live well even without a man, but in life, we can't only have power and ambition; the warmth of a family is also very important. I think Chen Yang is quite good. If you become his woman, you'll have a clear direction in life and won't be as lost as you are now. What do you think?"

Gao Rushi remained silent, head down, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes. She didn't speak, but the blush on her face deepened, clearly indicating that she had been persuaded by Qingyun.

Looking at her like this, Qingyun already knew the answer. She smiled and stood up: "Sister Rushi, you must be tired after such a big battle. Let me help you take a bath!"

"No need, no need, I can wash it myself!" Gao Rushi quickly waved her hand and declined.

"That won't do!" Qingyun grabbed her hand without further ado and headed towards the hot spring. "I just changed the water; it's very clean. Go in and soak for a bit, relax. I'll go out and get some fruit, then come back in and wash with you, and I'll scrub your back!"

After saying that, Qingyun led Gao Rushi to the hot spring and then turned and walked out of the cave.

After leaving, Qingyun flew quickly and found Chen Yang, who was grinning foolishly.

She strode over, grabbed Chen Yang's ear, and said irritably, "Chen Yang, it's your turn!"

"Ouch! Sister Qingyun, that hurts!" Chen Yang winced in pain and quickly begged for mercy. "What happened? Did you settle the matter?"

Qingyun released his grip and briefly recounted her conversation with Gao Rushi. Finally, she patted his shoulder, her tone ambiguous: "Now we're certain, Sister Rushi is willing! Next, you'll go into the cave in my place and bathe with her. Remember, be gentle and quiet, don't bully her!"

"Huh? This...this isn't a good idea, is it?" Chen Yang swallowed, his face flushing slightly. "What if Senior Sister Ru Shi suddenly gets angry and slaps me to death?"

"Fool!" Qingyun chuckled, pushing him towards the cave. "If she didn't want to, why would I let you go? Once you're inside, you don't need to say anything. Just follow the steps, rubbing her back and taking care of her. The rest will happen naturally; she understands everything!"

After saying that, Qingyun gave Chen Yang a hard push and pushed him into the cave. Then she closed the cave door and a wicked smile appeared on her lips.

Inside the cave.

Amidst the rising steam and the warm spring water, Gao Rushi sat in the hot spring with her back to the cave entrance. Her long, black hair cascaded down her back, outlining her graceful curves, making her look like a snow fairy in the water.

Hearing footsteps, Gao Rushi said without turning her head, "Qingyun, you're back so soon? Then please give me a back rub."

Chen Yang didn't speak, but silently took off his clothes and stepped into the hot spring. The warm water washed over his body, dispelling the fatigue after the battle.

Gao Rushi stiffened slightly, but did not turn around. Of course, she knew that the person who came was not Qingyun but Chen Yang.

Chen Yang also knew that Gao Rushi knew that he was not Qingyun.

Gao Rushi also knew that Chen Yang knew that she knew he was not Qingyun.

However, Chen Yang did not speak, and Gao Rushi did not turn her head.

Chen Yang simply reached out his palm and gently stroked down Gao Rushi's back.

As her fingertips touched her smooth, delicate skin, Gao Rushi's body tensed instantly, a tempting blush spreading across her entire body. All her reserve and resistance vanished in that instant. Her body trembled slightly, and her breathing became somewhat rapid.

Chen Yang's heart softened, and he scooped up a handful of warm water, gently sprinkling it on her back with incredibly tender movements.

But of course he wouldn't be satisfied with just rubbing her back. He gently wrapped his arms around Gao Rushi from behind and held her tightly in his embrace.
