Li Erniang knocked on Gu Liyan's door, but there was no response for a long time. She couldn't help but complain, "Strange, why is Gu Liyan so sleepy lately? With such a commotion outside, he can still sleep!"

At this moment, Lan Ying came out of the room and saw Li Erniang at the door. She glanced at her but didn't say anything. Then she knocked on the door as well.

After Lan Ying knocked on the door, Li Erniang pouted and said, "Stop knocking, the person is asleep and doesn't have time to pay attention to you."

Lan Ying glanced coldly at Li Erniang, then kicked open the door without saying a word.

Gu Liyan sat by the window, removed the gauze from his eyes, and slowly opened them, looking into the distance. "Dragon Soul Reality, it seems a natural disaster has struck."

She glanced at him and smiled slightly. "Aren't you two a little early?"

Lan Ying entered the room and, seeing that Gu Liyan's eyes were bright, asked with some surprise, "You can see now?"

Gu Liyan turned around, smiled, and nodded. "Yes, it's all better now. But it seems I've seen something I didn't want to see..."

Lan Ying sneered, "You're not going to talk about me again, are you?"

"Oh, how could that be?"

At this moment, Li Erniang walked in. Seeing that Gu Liyan's eyes had recovered, she pointed at him and said, "Well, you secretly healed your injuries in your room without telling me! I was worried about you for so long!"

Gu Liyan smiled and said, "I just wanted to give you a surprise, that's why I didn't tell you."

"Hmph, more of a shock than a cause for celebration!" Li Erniang said irritably.

Lan Ying frowned, her face grave. "I came to see you because of yesterday's incident. I just received news that a fire broke out on a street, and the entire street was engulfed in flames and turned into ruins..."

Upon hearing this, Li Erniang was startled. "No way? Who was so heartless as to set fire to the entire street? Has the culprit been caught?"

Lan Ying did not answer Li Erniang, but continued, "Fortunately, someone intervened and put out the fire, otherwise the fire would probably have spread to our side and then burned into the palace..."

Gu Liyan nodded without saying anything. Seeing that he had no expression and seemed to think that the matter had nothing to do with her, Lan Ying felt a chill in her heart and didn't know what to say next.

Fortunately, Li Erniang was nearby. She looked somewhat anxious. "If that's the case, wouldn't the losses be enormous?"

“I think the Weilong Kingdom can afford this loss, but we are afraid we will not be able to subdue the culprit who can go to heaven and earth.” Lan Ying’s eyes remained fixed on Gu Liyan.

Li Erniang, oblivious to Lan Ying's gaze, began to speculate to herself, "Going to heaven and earth? Who has such great abilities? Hmm?"

Li Erniang's eyes suddenly lit up. "You're not talking about the fire dragon that once appeared in the sky, are you?"

Lan Ying nodded. "I think it's almost certainly the fire it breathed!"

Gu Liyan looked up at Lan Ying. "So, what are you planning to do?"

"I plan to go to the palace to consult Princess Qingge's opinion on whether we should still go on the expedition. Also, I'd like to ask you if you'd be willing to come with me to the palace to find her this time," Lan Ying said.

Before Gu Liyan could even speak, Li Erniang hurriedly interjected, "No way! Gu Liyan is leaving with me soon, he's not going to get involved in this mess! Mo Han and Mo Chen will handle the dragon-catching matter, there's no need for Gu Liyan to get involved!"

Gu Liyan looked at Lan Ying, thought for a moment, and nodded. "Okay, I won't go."

Lan Ying was a little angry. "Gu Liyan! You don't have any feelings for Qingge at all, do you? Or are you afraid that Mo Han and the others will blame you for helping Princess Qingge?"

Gu Liyan didn't say anything. His main body was currently by Qingge's side, so why should he go looking for trouble? It wouldn't be good if there was a misunderstanding.

Seeing that Gu Liyan remained unmoved, Lan Ying coldly looked at him and said, "Now that you've recovered, you should be able to help her. Why are you still hesitant? Have you completely lost all feelings for her?"

When Qingge left the palace last time, she secretly instructed Lan Ying to find a way to bring Gu Liyan into the palace. Once Gu Liyan was in the palace, Mo Han and Mo Chen, due to their social status, wouldn't be able to prevent her from being with him. Of course, this was all predicated on Gu Liyan recovering his health.

Now that Gu Liyan has finally recovered, Lan Ying naturally wants to try to get him into the palace. However, to her surprise, Gu Liyan is completely oblivious and shows no interest in going!

Seeing that Lan Ying was angry, Li Erniang said smugly, "General Lan, I think you should just give up. Since Gu Liyan doesn't want to go, don't force him. He'll come with me sooner or later, so don't waste your energy!"

Lan Ying glared coldly at Li Erniang, "If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"

"Who are you calling mute? Believe me or not, I'll poison you into being mute!" Li Erniang shouted, pointing at Lan Ying.

Gu Liyan glanced at the two who were about to fight and sighed helplessly. Suddenly, a purple glint flashed in his eyes, his expression froze, and as if receiving a command, he raised his hand and coldly spoke:

"Stop arguing. In that case, I'll go there myself."

"What?" Li Erniang thought she had misheard. "What are you going to do? Didn't you agree to come with me?"

“I said I’d leave with you because this world has been unified and is on the right track. Otherwise, I wouldn’t feel at ease leaving. If my trip to the palace can help my senior brothers complete their mission as soon as possible, then I can leave with you earlier,” Gu Liyan said calmly. “So—you can’t object.”

Li Erniang said irritably, "Fine, if that's the case, then I'll go too!"

"What are you going to do? Princess Qingge and you are not acquainted!" Lan Ying glared at Li Erniang.

“I’m not familiar with her, but I am familiar with Li Jin. Can’t I go find my nephew?” Li Erniang raised her chin arrogantly.
