Upon hearing Gu Yixian's words, Gu Liyan was overjoyed. Before he could thank her, Gu Yixian said again, "You'd better leave as soon as you're done bandaging, understand?"
Gu Liyan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
After entering, Gu Yixian took out a first-aid kit and bandaged Gu Liyan's wound. Looking at Gu Yixian's icy face, Gu Liyan shook his head. His eyes were always blurry and he could hardly see her face clearly.
If it really was Hua Baixian, then he could accept the absurdity of last night. But if it wasn't Hua Baixian, then hadn't he done something to betray Hua Baixian?
How could he face Hua Baixian again?
Gu Liyan immediately looked like she had a headache.
Seeing Gu Liyan's pale face and pained expression, Gu Yixian subconsciously asked, "Are there any other injuries?"
Gu Liyan opened his mouth, enduring the pain in his body and heart, gritted his teeth and shook his head, "No, no."
Gu Yixian didn't say anything upon hearing this. Instead, she took out two bottles of medicine from her medicine box and instructed, "This red one is for external use, and this white one is for internal use. Take these and you can go."
Gu Liyan was taken aback. "Yiyi, I..."
"Don't say anything more!" Gu Yixian interrupted Gu Liyan. "We're even, it's best not to bother each other!"
Gu Liyan pursed his lips, picked up the medicine bottle, and stood up. "I'm sorry, Yiyi. I'll come back once my eyes have healed..."
Once his eyes recover, he will be able to confirm who she is. If it is Hua Baixian, he will stay and protect her for life; if not…
He would make her forget everything, completely disappear from her memory, and forget the pain...
Gu Liyan turned and walked out the door, never looking back.
Watching Gu Liyan's departing figure, Gu Yixian couldn't help but feel her eyes well up with tears. "That bastard, that idiot, sob sob..."
Seeing Gu Yixian crying, Xiaohu blinked and asked with some confusion, "Sister Yiyi, big brother is so handsome and a very nice person, don't you like him?"
Gu Yixian looked up at Xiaohu, stroked his head, and sighed softly, "It's precisely because I like him that I can't let him stay by my side..."
Xiao Hu looked at Gu Yixian with a puzzled expression. "Why is that?"
“Because he… doesn’t like me…” Gu Yixian closed her eyes in anguish. Last night, during that crazy night, she heard Gu Liyan calling out the names of many women…
Hua Baixian, Su Xian'er, Hua Mulan, but she was not among the people he mentioned!
Gu Yixian sighed, "Perhaps I don't actually like him..."
——
Gu Liyan returned to the cave, which was cold, dark, and damp, with the sound of flowing water echoing through it.
Thinking back to the scene of my first meeting with Gu Yixian, it was truly a wonderful coincidence...
"She saved me, but I hurt her, failed to repay her kindness, and now I'm even choosing to run away from her..."
Looking at the flowing spring water, Gu Liyan thought of Gu Yixian's scolding words and felt incredibly guilty. "Gu Liyan, you're such a bastard..."
She clearly carries Hua Baixian's aura, so why is she avoiding her? Even if she isn't Hua Baixian, how can she be so irresponsible as to run away like that...?
Gu Liyan sighed and lay on the ground, clutching the medicine bottle Gu Yixian had given him. "Gu Yixian, Gu Yixian, how am I supposed to treat you? I'm so afraid that what I get isn't the truth I'm hoping for..."
He closed his eyes, and all the experiences he had had with Hua Baixian flashed before his eyes. He absolutely could not let Hua Baixian down!
but……
Gu Liyan sat up. "I can't let Hua Baixian down, but I also can't let Gu Yixian down. In that case, I'll protect Gu Yixian for the rest of my life!"
After Gu Liyan figured it out, she walked out of the cave.
Upon reaching the cave entrance, they found the forest shrouded in fog. Already affected by the attack from the hunter's spirit, their vision was further impaired by the fog. They could only rely on Gu Yixian's scent and their memories of returning to head towards her cabin.
But before they had gone far, they suddenly heard a snickering laugh. The laugh was all too familiar; it was the same laugh from the hunter, Wild Soul!
"Hiss hiss hiss..."
Gu Liyan's expression changed drastically. His vision was filled with white mist, making it impossible to see anything clearly. He was also unable to detect the aura of the hunter's wild soul, and he was deliberately keeping silent.
Gu Liyan dared not make a sound, searching for the enemy's location while thinking of a countermeasure.
"Hehehe, does it feel good for the little thing to be blind?"
Gu Liyan turned around. The voice was not far behind him. Before he could speak, the voice came again from behind:
"Where are you looking? I'm right here!"
Gu Liyan was shocked and immediately took out his jade flute, Chang Shang, and turned around. Before he could make any move, he suddenly felt a burning pain in his chest, followed by a surge of heat that tore out of his chest.
Gu Liyan's face turned deathly pale. In just a moment, he almost had his stomach ripped open by that desolate soul again!
"Heh heh heh! Little thing, you're really too weak!"
Gu Liyan gritted his teeth and said, "If you want to kill me, then kill me. Why spare my life only to come and torture me again?"
"Heh heh heh, what can I do when you're the only one in this world who can punish others? Who else am I supposed to bully if not you? Besides... you look quite amusing!"
Gu Liyan felt a chill run down his spine. He gritted his teeth and said, "I swear, if you don't kill me today, I will tear you to pieces in the future!"
"Tch, tch, tch, how laughable! Although I haven't been a Punisher for thousands of years, I never knew that Punishers had become like this, spouting empty boasts!"
