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 427 Calculating Time

A green light flashed through her mind, and the source of that light was the mysterious compass. Seeing the compass spinning rapidly, Gu Liyan saw Gu Changyuan looking at her with a wicked smile, and she suddenly realized what was happening—

Gu Liyan raised his hand to wipe away the cold sweat, thinking to himself, "Why would I suddenly dream about that? It's been so long..."

Gu Liyan was taken aback, but what she saw was Yan Muxue looking at her with concern. "Xiao Li, are you alright? Why are you sweating so much?"

As she spoke, Yan Muxue took out a handkerchief and began wiping Gu Liyan's sweat.

Gu Liyan looked around and realized that he was in the Gravity Abyss. He was stunned and asked, "Xue'er, how did I get here?"

Gu Liyan frowned when he saw Baili Huangyi and his group gathered at the cliff edge not far away. "How did they find their way here?"

"This, this... I brought them here. I was thinking of having them take you to that cave to rest for a while..." Yan Muxue's voice grew softer and softer as she noticed that Gu Liyan's face was becoming increasingly gloomy.

Without another word, Gu Liyan stood up, his brows furrowed, and staggered toward Baili Huangyi and his group. Yan Muxue rushed forward to support him, but Gu Liyan waved his hand and said indifferently, "It's alright, I'll go by myself."

Seeing Gu Liyan's cold attitude, Yan Muxue realized what she had done wrong. She looked at Gu Liyan with a disappointed expression and hurriedly chased after him...

"Prince Yan." Gu Liyan stepped forward and called out.

"Young Master Mo, you're awake." Baili Huangyi turned around, saw Gu Liyan, and smiled, "How are you feeling?"

Gu Liyan pursed his lips and said, "I'm fine. It's getting late, let's go down the mountain as soon as possible."

Baili Huangyi squinted at Gu Liyan and said with a smile, "Going down the mountain? Doesn't Young Master Mo know the purpose of our visit? We heard that there is a fox spirit in Qianjue Town, so I led many soldiers up the mountain to see for myself."

Baili Huangyi pointed to the other side and said, "I suspect that the fox spirit is on that other side. I have already sent Minister Wang to build an iron chain bridge. Young Master Mo, wouldn't you like to see the fox spirit's true face?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Liyan's eyelids twitched, and he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, I advise you not to explore unknown and dangerous places, otherwise you will surely face annihilation!"

Baili Huangyi squinted at Gu Liyan and coldly asked, "What did you say?"

Seeing Baili Huangyi's anger, the guards behind him immediately drew their swords. Yan Muxue was so frightened that she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Gu Liyan's sleeve, "Little Li..."

Gu Liyan looked up at Baili Huangyi and said, "My injuries were inflicted by them. If you think your people are stronger than me and can protect you, then you can continue forward!"

Upon hearing this, Baili Huangyi frowned and subconsciously glanced at Ping'er behind him. Among the group he brought, only Ping'er's strength was unknown, and it seemed that only her strength was on par with Gu Liyan's.

Ping'er glanced at Gu Liyan and chuckled, "Don't look at me, I can't beat him."

Baili Huangyi gasped, pondering to himself, "Is this fox spirit really that powerful? Is it really as rumored, that the fox spirit controls the destiny of Qianjue Town, and that we cannot touch it?"

Thinking of this, Baili Huangyi suddenly had the idea of ​​retreating.

Seeing this, Feng Huaxian stepped forward and said, "We came here with the sincerity of asking the Fox Fairy for blessings. We have absolutely no other intentions. I think the Fox Fairy will not blame us."

Upon hearing Feng Huaxian's words, Baili Huangyi immediately nodded, "That's right, as long as we offer more tribute, the fox spirit will definitely not complain about us!"

Seeing that they showed no sign of leaving, Gu Liyan hurriedly spoke up, "Since you call them immortals, you should also understand that they are by no means greedy. Even if you give them mountains of gold and silver, they will not waver in the slightest..."

Feng Huaxian interjected, "You talk as if you know what kind of people they are!"

"I..." Gu Liyan was speechless for a moment, and Yan Muxue, holding Gu Liyan's hand, also dared not speak.

Just then, Wang Guozhong ran forward and said, "Prince Yan, the iron chain bridge has been built."

Baili Huangyi nodded. "Alright, let's go to the other side..."

"No!" Gu Liyan exclaimed urgently, "You can't go over there!"

Everyone turned to look at Gu Liyan, their faces showing displeasure, and Wang Guozhong stepped forward to stop him.

Baili Huangyi coldly said, "Young Master Mo, if you don't have the guts to go over there, you can stay here. As for where we're going, it's best if you don't ask any questions!"

"I..." Gu Liyan clenched his fists, not knowing what to do.

“Xiao Li…” Yan Muxue looked at Gu Liyan with a guilty expression.

If she hadn't told Baili Huangyi and the others about the cave there, they would never have found this place...

Gu Liyan thought for a moment and said to Baili Huangyi, "How about this, I'll scout ahead for you first, and you can come over if it's safe."

Upon hearing that Gu Liyan was willing to scout ahead for him, Baili Huangyi was overjoyed and immediately said happily, "Then I'll trouble Young Master Mo to scout ahead for us!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Muxue hurriedly said, "Xiao Li, you're still injured, don't take any risks..."

Gu Liyan looked at Yan Muxue and said in a low voice, "You and I both know whether there is any danger here, don't worry, wait for me to come back!"

Yan Muxue suddenly realized that her worries were completely unnecessary!

Gu Liyan was about to leave when Ping'er's voice suddenly came from the crowd:

"Wait! I'll go with you!"

Gu Liyan turned his head and saw Ping'er walk up to him with a smile and say, "Young Master Mo, how about we go together?"

After saying that, he directly transmitted his voice to Gu Liyan, "I will tell you everything you want to know and everything you don't know."
