Nine Lives, Nine Worlds of Tribulation

Memories are like ever-blooming stone flowers, yet only the self believes them to be eternal. Ultimately, what they bring is the ruthlessness of reincarnation; perhaps no one will wait this time.

Chapter 186 The Depths of the Sea

“Gu Liyan…”

Gu Yixian squinted at Gu Liyan. His face was somewhat pale, but even paler than that was his icy demeanor!

Gu Liyan has never liked himself in this moment, even if he were Gu Yixian now, he has never even looked at himself properly!

Cang Ye looked at Gu Liyan. No matter how perfect his face was, in her eyes at this moment, he was nothing more than a heartless person wearing a cold mask!

"Gu Liyan...you are so heartless!" Gu Yixian said coldly, "Is this how you treat the woman you love?!"

Gu Liyan approached Gu Yixian, looked at her intently, gently shook his head, and said, "You are not her!"

Gu Yixian clenched her fists, glaring hatefully at Gu Liyan. She hated him; she hated that Gu Liyan was so lucid!

The love I once had for Gu Liyan has now turned into nothing but hatred!

"Cang Ye, stop playing the emotional card. You're just fooling yourself. You can't fool us, and you can't fool any of us!" Gu Liyan's voice was neither loud nor soft, but it was powerful.

“However, you are right about one thing…” Gu Liyan looked at Gu Yixian and said coldly, “We do not trust you—never have!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Yixian looked at Gu Liyan with a pitiful expression and said, "Gu Liyan, I already like you! Is it still impossible for me to gain your trust?"

Gu Liyan looked at Gu Yixian, whose tender and affectionate expression was exactly the same as his Yiyi's!

But--

That wasn't her after all!

Gu Liyan squatted down, raised his hands, and cupped Gu Yixian's face in his hands, his purple eyes filled with tenderness.

"Gu Liyan, I..."

Gu Liyan's eyes reddened slightly, and he interrupted her directly, "Cang Ye, my Yiyi will never call me Gu Liyan!"

Gu Yixian stared blankly at Gu Liyan. She understood now. He was clear-headed, clear-headed than anyone else, and had never been deeply involved in anyone else's love affairs!

Gu Liyan stood up and said coldly, "Cang Ye, after Yiyi gives birth, please leave her body!"

Gu Yixian looked at Gu Liyan, and for some reason her eyes welled up with tears.

She never imagined she would have such deep feelings for Gu Liyan, and she never expected that Gu Liyan would reject her so cruelly!

Gu Yixian collapsed to her knees, gritted her teeth, and said, "Okay, I understand... I won't bother you anymore, never again!"

"Father, she..."

Xiao Tao was about to say something when Gu Liyan interrupted her:

"Don't worry, Yiyi still has five months before she can give birth. During this time, I will recover my strength, and even if she has any wicked ideas, she won't cause any trouble!"

Turning his gaze, Gu Liyan glanced at Gu Yixian, who was lying on the ground, no longer showing any resistance, and said in an unquestionable tone:

"Mo Chen, you and Xiao Tao will keep an eye on Cang Ye to prevent her from escaping."

"Yes, I understand!" Mo Chen glanced at Gu Yixian and nodded.

Gu Liyan turned to look at Lei Dong. "Lei Dong, you're still injured, so rest well for the next few days. As for Lei Li, if you can persuade him, then try to persuade him. If you can't, then let him leave."

Lei Dong nodded. "Yes, I know. I'm sorry, Gu Liyan, for causing you trouble."

Gu Liyan shook his head and said nothing.

Turning his gaze to Gu Yixian's furious expression, Gu Liyan coldly said, "Don't worry, since you didn't take advantage of my vulnerability to kill me this time, I will spare your life. However—if you still don't repent, I will settle both the old and new scores together!"

Gu Liyan narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Gu Yixian, coldly saying, "Moreover, Xiao Tao will be watching your every move. You'd better not have any wicked ideas, or he can make you suffer unbearably!"

Gu Yixian gave a bitter laugh, then burst into maniacal laughter, "I'll do whatever you want, I've lost, I, Cang Ye, have lost! Hahaha..."

Gu Liyan sighed as he looked at Gu Yixian, then turned to leave.

Watching Gu Liyan's retreating figure, Gu Yixian suddenly stood up angrily and shouted at him, "Gu Liyan! You hypocritical liar! Liar! Big liar!"

Gu Liyan turned his head and glanced at her, smiling slightly, "A liar, huh..."

His cold eyes flashed with icy indifference; the woman before him was indeed not the one he loved!

He lied to Gu Yixian, but only so that she could live happily.

Gu Liyan glanced at Gu Yixian, ignoring her curses, and turned to leave.

"Gu Liyan! You will die a horrible death!"

Hearing Gu Yixian's curses, Gu Liyan remained indifferent.

Back in my room, I closed the door, and the foul language was no longer in my ears.

Gu Liyan's expression suddenly changed, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Cough... I forced myself to hold my breath and finally managed to suppress her arrogance and resolve the problem, but now it seems... it's still a bit of a stretch..."

Looking exhausted, Gu Liyan sat on the bed and let out a long sigh. "It seems I really need to get some rest..."

I closed my eyes, lay down, and quickly fell asleep.

In my dream, it was once again the deep sea where my soul was buried, trapped in its cage for so long; but this time, my vision was exceptionally clear.

Gu Liyan slowly opened his eyes, saw the underwater world around him, felt the temperature on his body, and smiled slightly, "So the Sea of ​​Souls doesn't feel cold at all. Could it be because I was too weak before?"

Thinking of this, Gu Liyan couldn't help but smile bitterly, "No, I should be even weaker now!"

Suddenly, Gu Liyan raised his head. "Wait! How did I end up in the Deep Sea of ​​Souls? My physical body is riddled with holes, causing me to be weak and exhausted. Why am I here?!"
