The group arrived at Gu Liyan's room. Hua Baixian looked at the unconscious Gu Liyan and couldn't help but shed tears. She choked out, "It's all my fault. I didn't protect him well."

"It's not Mother's fault, it's because Xiao Tao slept too soundly and didn't take good care of Father," Gu Tao said, her eyes moist.

"You're all right. It's all that guy's fault for harming Gu Liyan. I'll dig three feet into the ground to find him!" Lin Meng said, waving his fist.

As they were talking, Gu Liyan frowned slightly, then slowly opened his eyes. Looking at the noisy crowd around him, he said impatiently, "Are you guys going to let me sleep or not?"

"Xiao Li!" Hua Baixian ran over to Gu Liyan with joy when she saw him wake up, grabbed his hand and exclaimed excitedly, "You're finally awake!"

"Why are you sleeping when you're all awake? Let's get up and have some fun!" Lin Meng said with a grin.

Hua Baixian smiled and said, "Xiao Li, everyone was very worried about you, but thankfully you're alright."

"Xiao Bai... tell them to stop making noise and let me sleep a little longer..." Gu Liyan gently pulled Hua Baixian's hand and spoke softly.

"Okay, okay, we won't bother you," Hua Baixian said obediently.

Gu Liyan closed his eyes again, and Hua Baixian led Lin Meng and the others out of the ward. As soon as they left, Gu Liyan opened his eyes again and said to the person beside him, "They're gone, come out."

As soon as he finished speaking, a phantom figure appeared in the room. His physique was almost identical to Gu Liyan's. If Hua Baixian were present, she would recognize him as the phantom soul that had sent her to this world.

"How does it feel to regain your memories?" The Void Soul asked with a slight smile.

"Not bad, at least you don't fail to recognize your former friends." Gu Liyan slowly sat up and leaned against the headboard, smiling at the illusory soul. "Tell me, what do you want me to do here?"

"As expected, you understand me best." The illusory soul said with a smile—after all, they came from the same source.

The illusory soul looked at Gu Liyan and said, "Actually, there was another way to save you when you died."

Gu Liyan lowered his eyes and said, "Using the Reincarnation Compass again? I'm afraid you wouldn't dare to take the risk again, would you?"

“That’s right. This would not only affect the entire space and time, but also cause many hidden dangers. So, for the sake of space stability, we have no choice but to bring you and Hua Baixian to this independently developing new world.” The Void Soul explained, “Fortunately, the peace in this world lies in the development of science, and there are mutual checks and balances between countries.”

“But don’t you think there are a lot of people here? Not to mention Xiao Bai and me, there’s also Mo Chen and Xiao Tao. Why are Lin Meng and Cang Yue also reincarnating in this world? Not only that, as far as I know, Xuan Tian Dao is Tian Xuan himself, right? They all seem to know the memories of the past. I think this shouldn’t be a coincidence.” Gu Liyan said.

“That’s right, it’s not a coincidence. The reason they are in this world is because after you and Hua Baixian left, there was turmoil in the Nine Springs Realm, and most of the registered potential talents were teleported to this world.” The Void Soul said with a serious expression, “Don’t be fooled by the peaceful appearance of this world now. As time goes by, there will be more and more awakened people, and there will definitely be fighting.”

Gu Liyan's expression changed slightly. "An Awakened One?"

"You are now an Awakened One, awakening your memories of your past life. Awakened Ones not only remember their friends, but also their former enemies. As a public figure, it's normal for you to be targeted by your former enemies."

Gu Liyan frowned. "So, according to you, it's only a matter of time before their abilities are restored?"

“Their abilities generally won’t recover much. What’s more dangerous are those wise awakeners who manipulate people’s minds. If they want to use the methods of this era to develop their power, I think it would be incredibly easy for them,” the Void Soul said.

“If the Awakened are all interconnected like Lin Meng and the others, then this world will eventually fall into their hands,” Gu Liyan analyzed. “Did you come to me to find them?”

"Not only that, I'm asking you not only to find them, but also to send them back to the Nine Springs Realm!" the illusory soul said. "The internal strife in the Nine Springs Realm is nearing its end. As long as they are willing to go back, they will regain their full strength."

"Internal strife in the Nine Springs Realm? What happened to my father and my senior brother?" Gu Liyan asked anxiously.

“Mo Han and Mo Yan disappeared on the eve of the war.” Xu Hun sighed and said, “They believe that Mo Han deserted the battlefield, so they removed him from his position as acting world lord. Mo Yan also suffered the same fate and refused to become the punisher of the Nine Springs Realm.”

"What?!" Gu Liyan frowned deeply. "Impossible! My father and senior brothers would never desert their posts!"

"No one knows the specifics of their situation. What worries me now is the Awakened Ones of this world, and you are the only ones I can trust," the Void Soul said.

Gu Liyan knew that Xu Hun had no choice but to ask for his help. Considering Xu Hun's current situation, Gu Liyan said, "Xiao Bai, Mo Chen, and I are all mortals. If you expect us to obey unconditionally, what if there are any risks? Are we supposed to wait for another reincarnation?"

Xu Hun squinted at Gu Liyan, somewhat incredulous that Gu Liyan had said such a thing. "Gu Liyan, are you trying to negotiate with me? I never expected you to be so selfish!"

"I was willing to sacrifice myself because I did it for Xiao Bai, and I also had another me, Yan Ligu, as my backer, and then my father and senior brother—now Xiao Bai has not completed ten reincarnations, and I have devoted all my abilities to the Nine Springs. My father and senior brother are also missing and regarded as traitors by the Nine Springs Realm. How can you expect me to trust you again?" Gu Liyan sneered. "I might as well go on a carefree trip with my friends and not miss out on good people!"
