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.
Gu Liyan, well aware of the wisdom of Yin and Yang, could only nod in agreement.
Seeing Gu Liyan nod, Yin Yang continued, "I should have told you about the sea you came back to. It's very mysterious, and it's also the place where I was born."
"What I didn't expect was that the mystery of that sea was beyond my imagination, and you—now you're beyond my imagination too! Gu Liyan, how exactly did you get here?" Yin Yang frowned as he looked at Gu Liyan. "Or, should I ask you, what do you want to do back in the Heavenly Palace?"
Gu Liyan took a sip of wine, a spicy sensation like a burning flame igniting in his throat. He coughed, but the feeling wasn't enough, so he simply downed the wine in one gulp.
His limbs and bones instantly became hot, and his abdomen felt like it was burning with flames!
This feeling always gave him an urge to roam the world!
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Yin Yang was just about to say something when Gu Liyan suddenly spoke:
"A friend of mine asked me to find the reincarnation of her former lover, and I unexpectedly arrived here by following the aura of his soul." Gu Liyan glanced at Yin Yang. "I was quite surprised to be able to return to the Heavenly Palace!"
Yin Yang frowned slightly. "Reincarnation?"
Gu Liyan nodded. "Yes, I originally thought I would see that person's reincarnation and send my regards to him on behalf of my friend, but who knew I would end up here..."
Yin Yang frowned. "No, even so, you are only in the state of a soul. Although we can see you with our naked eyes, we should not be able to touch you!"
“Uh…that’s what I find most strange!” Gu Liyan frowned. Now that Yin Yang had discovered this clue, he had nothing left to hide.
"At first, I thought the person I was looking for had perished in that sea. But when you and Sister Qing'er appeared and pulled me back, I realized that you could not only see me, but also touch me! I was very surprised; it's simply unbelievable!"
Yin Yang took a deep breath, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He immediately turned his head and looked at Gu Liyan with a solemn expression. "Gu Liyan, tell me, what is your spiritual world like?"
"The spiritual world?" Gu Liyan didn't know why Yin Yang asked this. Everyone's spiritual world is different, and it depends on personal preferences.
As for Gu Liyan's spiritual world, it is connected to the soul world, which is that vast ocean—
Gu Liyan scratched his head, also somewhat unsure. "It should... be a sea, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Yang stared at Gu Liyan in astonishment, "The sea? How big is the sea?"
"I don't know either. I'm always underwater. I never go ashore... It must be huge, right? And very deep, since I can't even feel the end."
"The sea? You can't climb to the shore? The sea has no end..." Yin Yang lowered his head and pondered.
Gu Liyan looked at Yin Yang with a puzzled expression. "Yin Yang, what is your spiritual world? Is my world the sea good or bad?"
“My world is half black and half white, like night and day overlapping, but space has an end.” Yin Yang carefully explained, “Using spiritual power would harm my soul, so I rarely use it.”
Gu Liyan nodded. She had used Yin Yang once in the last battle. It was powerful, but it had also greatly depleted her strength.
Yin Yang looked at Gu Liyan and seemed to remember something. He hurriedly asked, "By the way, have you been cultivating your soul recently? Or rather... has your soul evolved?"
Gu Liyan opened his mouth, "How did you know? I've been learning the Soul Splitting Technique recently. A few days ago, my friend even broke into my soul world to save me! And because of that, he brought with him a bit of malevolent energy..."
Clang...
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, Yin Yang abruptly stood up, staring at him in astonishment. At that moment, Yin Yang's heart pounded. She suddenly recalled the light she had seen in the deep sea earlier, and the malevolent aura she had recently sensed—
"So that's how it is... So that's how it is!" Yin Yang murmured to himself as he looked at Gu Liyan.
"Wh-what's wrong?" Seeing Yin Yang's agitated expression, Gu Liyan subconsciously stood up with her.
Yin Yang grabbed Gu Liyan's shoulders with a serious expression and said, "Gu Liyan, listen! You must go back right now!"
"What?" Gu Liyan frowned and looked at Yin Yang in confusion. "Why?"
"No reason why! You must go back! Now! This is not a place for you!" Yin Yang suddenly became agitated.
"What... what exactly is going on?" Gu Liyan looked at Yin Yang in confusion. "No matter what, you have to give me a reason, right?"
They finally got to see Yin Yang and the others again, and now Gu Liyan is just going to go back without doing anything or helping them at all? How can that be allowed?
Yin Yang took a deep breath and said with a serious expression, "Gu Liyan, we are no longer from the same world. You can't stay here, especially since you have to go back to protect Hua Baixian!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Liyan suddenly remembered that Gu Yixian was still in labor...
Seeing Gu Liyan's expression change, Yin Yang had already made his decision. Without waiting for Gu Liyan to say anything, Yin Yang directly ordered, "Gu Liyan, go back immediately! Never, ever mention to anyone that you've returned here, not even Hua Baixian!"
Gu Liyan glanced at Yin Yang and nodded subconsciously.
Yin Yang glanced at Qian Mo and the other two, then said, "When they wake up, I will tell them not to mention your return to anyone..."
Although Gu Liyan didn't understand why Yin and Yang were being discussed so seriously, he knew that Yin and Yang wouldn't harm him.
"Then, then I'll go back..." Gu Liyan sighed, speaking with some reluctance.
