With a flick of his wrist, a set of teacups appeared on the table.

Looking at Luo Zichen, who was dressed in a purple dress and had a calm and composed expression, Gu Liyan vaguely sensed that she was different, or rather, that the aura of the "world" she was in now made her different.

Here, a vital energy, originating from the same source, circulates continuously, making him feel energetic, refreshed, and very comfortable.

At that moment, Gu Liyan asked in confusion:

"Sister Luo, this isn't the Heavenly Palace, so where is this place? Why does the air here feel different? And..."

Gu Liyan glanced at Gu Li, who was busy setting up the swing, and asked with a smile, "What are you doing here with my martial uncle?"

As for asking about the life force in the air, that's the main thing; asking about the reason why the two of them are together is secondary. After all, Yin Yang had already told him everything that happened after he and Hua Baixian had an accident when he returned to the Heavenly Palace last time.

If you ask why I'm asking again—

It was that old lecherous fox who was secretly peeking at Luo Zichen who sent Gu Liyan a telepathic message, asking him to find out Luo Zichen's current burst potential...

He just inadvertently revealed his romantic history and offended this holy lady!

If not handled properly, his fur will probably need to be trimmed all over again!

Upon hearing Gu Liyan's subsequent question, Luo Zichen glanced at Gu Li out of the corner of her eye. Seeing this, Gu Li hurriedly lowered his head and busied himself with his own affairs.

Luo Zichen turned her head and smiled at Gu Liyan, saying, "Little brother, have a cup of tea first. Don't rush, listen to me slowly."

"Oh, oh!" Gu Liyan nodded, glancing at Luo Zichen somewhat guiltily. The two foxes were indeed becoming rather reserved.

"The world my brother is in now is a world that Ah Li and I created," Luo Zichen said with a smile.

"Wait, a modified world? What does that mean?" Gu Liyan looked at Luo Zichen with a puzzled expression.

"What I mean is that this is the world we control! Here, we are the heavens, the rulers, and we can control all the laws! We can even manipulate the time in this world, making it much slower than the outside world!" Luo Zichen said with a smile.

"This, this is simply—" Gu Liyan almost bit his tongue, completely at a loss for words.

How could such a heaven-defying existence exist in this world?

"However, this world is like a newborn baby, its vitality is still very fragile, and it needs to be nurtured slowly by time," Luo Zichen said. "By the way, let me test you. Can you observe what kind of energy supports this world?"

Gu Liyan blinked, looking at every blade of grass and tree in the world, then shook her head. "Although the aura flowing in this world is unusual, and it gives me a sense of familiarity, I still can't be sure."

Luo Zichen smiled slightly, "The familiar feeling is right, it is indeed from the Heavenly Palace, it is the Contract of Life and Death!"

"What?! A life-and-death pact?!"

Gu Liyan stared at Luo Zichen in shock. Had he heard correctly? She had just said "a life-and-death contract"?!

"That's right, it's the Contract of Life and Death. In the end, the original prototype of this place was a deserted island. Because it was desolate and sparsely populated, we decided to recreate a new island." Luo Zichen said with a smile, "Who knew that we would discover another secret! This world is actually connected to the world at the bottom of the Flower Grief Pool!"

Gu Liyan looked at Luo Zichen in surprise, and then heard Luo Zichen continue, "After we transferred the life-and-death contract contained in the Flower Grief Pool to this world through this teleportation portal, this world gained new vitality. Then we transplanted some flowers, plants and trees, and over time it became what it is today!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Liyan's face immediately darkened. So these two were the culprits behind the severe lack of life energy in the Heavenly Palace and the drying up of the Flower Grief Pool!

Headache!

These two are really giving the fox a headache!

Gu Liyan covered his head, unable to imagine the serious consequences of their unintentional, playful creation!

This could inadvertently lead to the near extinction of the Heavenly Palace!

Gu Liyan looked at Luo Zichen sitting in front of him with a smile on her face and couldn't help but think to herself: How can this lady still be smiling at a time like this!

Gu Liyan's worried expression caught Luo Zichen's eye, and she immediately chuckled, "But don't worry, little brother, it's not a bad thing."

Isn't this a bad thing?!

If you hadn't messed things up, how could the Heavenly Palace have descended upon that world, and how could the Nine Springs Realm have sent down such an urgent mission!

Gu Liyan really didn't know what to say about this Holy Maiden!

Just then, Gu Li came running back excitedly, looking at Luo Zichen with a doting expression and saying:

"Your Holiness, the swing is finished. You can go and play now!"

"Yes, that's great! You guys chat for a bit, I'm going to try out the swing!" Luo Zichen's eyes lit up, and she happily ran off.

Gu Liyan's face darkened further. Not only did they mess around, but they also came here for a romantic getaway, and now they've brought him here to publicly display their affection. It's really...

That's so shameless!

"Ahem, Xiao Li!" Gu Li said in a serious tone.

“Uncle-Master…” Gu Liyan replied helplessly.

"Don't get involved in the Heavenly Palace's affairs if you can avoid it. Always prioritize your own life. Your master certainly won't interfere..."

“You mean Master? He’s actually my father,” Gu Liyan interrupted Gu Li.

"Oh, Gu Yan is your father? That's really something..." At this point, Gu Li suddenly exclaimed, "What?! Gu Yan is your father?!"
