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 268 I Should Go

"Don't worry about that fox, I'll go help him right away."

After saying that, An Qianshan grabbed his weapon and joined the battle.

Upon seeing the person who suddenly interrupted the fight, Gu Liyan was slightly taken aback and subconsciously blurted out, "An Qianshan? What are you doing here?"

Seeing a truly formidable human join the battle, Cang Mu warily stepped back and stared at An Qianshan, coldly saying, "Brother, this person is a demon, a great threat to the longevity of our human race. Don't help the wrong person!"

Gu Liyan frowned, thinking that An Qianshan was a human and would be condemned by everyone if he interfered in this matter. So he said to An Qianshan:

"An Qianshan, it's best if you don't get involved in this matter!"

As he spoke, he winked at An Qianshan.

However, An Qianshan remembered that his daughter, An Qianbai, had just been gazing at Gu Liyan with a dazed look, while her face was filled with murderous intent towards him. Enraged, he pointed at Gu Liyan and cursed:

"You bastard! You dare to use my name after sleeping with my daughter? You have no respect for your elders!"

Gu Liyan choked for a moment, too embarrassed to speak. After all, the person in front of her was An Qianbai's elder, and she had to give him face...

Cang Mu squinted at An Qianshan and coldly said, "Oh? You are Hua Baixian's father in this life? My apologies!"

An Qianshan sneered, "You kidnapped my daughter and now you're acting like a savior? You're even more arrogant than I was back when I was a wanderer in the martial world!"

Cang Mu laughed heartily, "Haha, what an interesting human! No wonder you were able to give birth to the reincarnation of Hua Baixian! But I'm very curious, what kind of person is your wife!"

Upon hearing Cang Mu mention An Qianbai's mother, An Qianshan went berserk, yelling, "Shut up! Don't mention her in front of me!"

After saying that, An Qianshan rushed forward like a madman, leaving Gu Liyan completely bewildered: Is this my enemy or your enemy?

However, seeing that An Qianshan had temporarily suppressed Cang Mu, Gu Liyan was not idle either, and prepared to save An Qianbai in his reincarnation. However, what he didn't expect was that An Qianbai was standing not far away, staring at him intently.

For a moment, Gu Liyan forgot that he was on a battlefield and slowly walked towards An Qianbai.

On the observation platform, Hua Qing'er kept a close eye on An Qianbai. When she saw An Qianbai being rescued by An Qianshan and the situation beginning to shift in Gu Liyan's favor, she couldn't help but speak up.

Hua Qing'er couldn't hold back any longer, "Palace Master, I want to kill An Qianbai with my own hands!"

Mo Hua glanced at Hua Qing'er. Presumably, Hua Qing'er was already restless because she had thought of Mo Hua's words that only if An Qianbai died could she inherit everything in Wanbao Palace.

Mo Hua squinted and turned to look at An Qianbai, who was standing there dumbfounded below the stage. He smiled slightly and said coldly, "Don't be stupid and rush up there. Remember to seize the opportunity!"

Hearing Mo Hua's words, Hua Qing'er's eyes lit up. She actually didn't stop her?!

Hua Qing'er excitedly replied, "Yes, Palace Master!"

"Go!" Mo Hua turned his gaze away from An Qianbai and glanced at Hua Qing'er before speaking.

Without further ado, Hua Qing'er rushed off the observation platform.

——

Gu Liyan walked towards An Qianbai and stood in front of her, his heart trembling slightly.

"Xiao Bai..."

Upon hearing Gu Liyan call her name, An Qianbai's body trembled, and a strange light flashed in her eyes.

Seeing this, Gu Liyan thought An Qianbai was frightened, so he quickly went up and took her hand, "Xiaobai, don't be afraid, I will protect you..."

Before Gu Liyan could utter the last "you," a sharp blade flashed past. Gu Liyan's expression changed abruptly. Before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his chest as the cold dagger plunged deep into his flesh...

"Uh—" Gu Liyan groaned, looking at An Qianbai with a blank and surprised expression. "Xiaobai...you..."

Why?

Why did you kill me?

An Qianbai looked up and met Gu Liyan's eyes. Looking at An Qianbai's gaze, Gu Liyan couldn't help but shudder. His cold, emotionless eyes were as indifferent as frozen ice!

An Qianbai gripped the dagger tightly, ignoring the pain on Gu Liyan's face, and pulled it out without any mercy. Gu Liyan gasped in pain, and before he could retreat, An Qianbai raised the dagger again and stabbed down!

Pfft—

It was the sound of a knife piercing flesh again, but this time Gu Liyan felt an extraordinary pain! He let out a painful scream.

Upon hearing Gu Liyan's scream, Xiaolong and Xiaohu immediately stopped what they were doing, and everyone stood motionless, staring at An Qianbai on the stage in astonishment.

A trickle of black blood slid down Gu Liyan's lips, his pale face contorted in pain. Before him lay An Qianbai's cold and crazed face, her hand still gripping the dagger tightly, trying to pull it from Gu Liyan's grasp.

Gu Liyan gritted his teeth, gripping An Qianbai's hand tightly, and shouted at her with a look of despair, "Do you really want me to die by your hand? Xiao Bai!!!"

Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, An Qianbai suddenly froze. She looked up at Gu Liyan with a somewhat dazed gaze, but still remained indifferent.

Gu Liyan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that An Qianbai had finally calmed down. It seemed that this was not An Qianbai's true will, but that she had been controlled by someone to do something that hurt her.

However, Gu Liyan's expression changed again, and he spat out a mouthful of black blood.

"Pfft..."

Gu Liyan stared blankly at the blood spurting from his mouth and the blood on his chest. Why was it all black?!

"Hahaha! Gu Liyan, your death is near!" Upon seeing this, Cang Mu burst into laughter.
