Chapter 1617: Chapter 821: Miss, You’re So Beautiful (Part 2)

Inside the Quiet Room, only Tantai Xueling and Gu Yuanyuan remained.

The atmosphere was momentarily quiet.

Gu Yuanyuan looked at the master whose demeanor was cool and commanding, feeling unsure of where to put her hands and feet, her heart pounding fiercely.

She sneaked a glance at the Divine Craft Maze Palace in Tantai Xueling’s hand, then quickly lowered her head.

Tantai Xueling put away the Divine Craft Maze Palace, her gaze falling back on Gu Yuanyuan, noticing her old, dirt-stained rough cloth attire and the slightly flushed face due to nervousness, her eyes softened.

"Yuanyuan?"

Tantai Xueling called gently.

"Ah? Yes!"

Gu Yuanyuan jolted, immediately responding.

Tantai Xueling looked at her nervous appearance, her lips curled slightly, revealing a very faint yet stunning smile.

She walked gracefully to Gu Yuanyuan, reaching out her hand, as fair as jade, gently lifting Gu Yuanyuan’s somewhat cold little hand.

Gu Yuanyuan froze, only feeling a gentle, warm force emanate from the other party’s palm, swiftly dispelling all her nerves and chill, leaving her feeling warm and very comfortable.

"Don’t be afraid."

Tantai Xueling’s voice flowed like a clear spring.

"Since you are Gu Sheng’s disciple, then you are also my... junior."

She hesitated, flipped her wrist, revealing a completely white, flawless, and radiantly glowing jade bracelet in her palm.

"Consider this a greeting gift."

Tantai Xueling gently slipped the jade bracelet onto Gu Yuanyuan’s slender wrist. The touch was cool, yet it adjusted perfectly in size.

Gu Yuanyuan looked at the jade bracelet on her wrist, clearly of great value, feeling unsure of what to do.

"M-Master... This is too precious..."

She blurted out unintentionally, then realized what she called, her face immediately turned bright red, wishing she could find a hole to hide in!

Tantai Xueling was slightly stunned by her words, then a genuine smile blossomed in her cool eyes, like thawing ice and the first water ripples of spring.

She looked at Gu Yuanyuan’s embarrassed appearance, instead of displeasure, she nodded gently, her voice carrying a hint of subtle delight.

"Yes, call me master from now on."

"Ah?"

Gu Yuanyuan was completely bewildered, staring at Tantai Xueling blankly, her mind a complete blank.

She had merely misspoken in her nervousness! Yet, master actually... agreed?!

Tantai Xueling did not offer more explanation, but lightly patted her hand, then instructed towards the outdoors.

"Someone, come."

A maiden in faint pink palace attire with a graceful appearance responded and entered, respectfully saluting.

"Pavilion Master."

"Take Miss Yuanyuan to the ’Fragrance Pavilion’, use the finest ’Jade Marrow Spirit Spring’ for her bath, and then fetch a set of ’Cloud Rainbow Flowing Light Skirt’ for her to change into."

Tantai Xueling’s voice returned to its cool tone yet carried undeniable authority.

"Let Skillful Handmaid Zhang personally groom and dress her, make sure... to be diligent."

"Yes, Pavilion Master!"

The maid responded respectfully, then turned to Gu Yuanyuan, her face bearing a gentle smile.

"Miss Yuanyuan, please follow me."

Gu Yuanyuan, still somewhat dazed, glanced at Tantai Xueling, then at the maid, subconsciously nodded, and followed the maid outside.

Inside the Fragrance Pavilion, mist filled the air, permeated with a refreshing fragrance.

In the large White Jade Bath, the milky ’Jade Marrow Spirit Spring’ exuded rich spiritual energy and a warm glow.

Gu Yuanyuan immersed herself within, feeling her pores open, an indescribable comfort, as the exhaustion and fright from the previous days seemed to be washed away entirely.

After the bath, she changed into the attire brought by the maid, named ’Cloud Rainbow Flowing Light Skirt.’

The skirt, woven of unknown material, felt warm, soft, and silky to the touch, shimmering with flowing light, and was incredibly light to wear, as though weightless.
