"Isn't it boring to drink alone?" Gu Liyan picked up the jade cup placed to the side and examined it with some curiosity. "This is a cup from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion!"
“Yeah, right! Can’t we sneak some out to have a drink?” Yin Yang said casually.
Thinking of the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, Gu Liyan couldn't help but frown.
"Judging from your pained expression, have you already discovered that Master Tianyi is a demon?" Yin Yang glanced at Gu Liyan and asked.
Gu Liyan was taken aback. "You know?"
Yin Yang drank the wine in his cup. "I know! I've known for a long time!"
Gu Liyan stared at him blankly, unsure of what to say.
"When Hua Shiman died, I was investigating my master's collection of divine artifacts at the Tianji Pavilion. While I was hiding in the Tianji Pavilion, I sensed demonic energy emanating from my master, Tianyi."
Yin Yang continued drinking, seemingly oblivious to his surroundings, "I find it hard to believe that my master is a demon. However, I didn't expose him because I hate the Celestial Clan even more! They ruined me, ruined Zi Chen, ruined Rui Xin, and even tried to ruin Qian Mo..."
Yin Yang clenched his fists tightly, crushing the jade cup in his hand to pieces. "I've been holding back all this time. I know all about Master's secrets and Tianxuan's secrets! But in the end, I still couldn't change the fate of all of us..."
Gu Liyan thought for a moment, picked up the wine bottle next to him and handed it over directly. "Actually, sometimes standing up and resisting will only backfire. You did the right thing!"
Yin Yang took the wine bottle, glanced at Gu Liyan, and asked, "If it were you, what would you do?"
Gu Liyan gave a bitter smile. Him...
Seeing that he remained silent, Yin Yang mocked, "Coward! Wimp!"
As he spoke, he raised his head and chugged the wine!
Gu Liyan glanced at Yin Yang, said nothing, and joined him in drinking.
Wine is a wonderful thing. Its spiciness is like tasting all the flavors of life in an instant, and its heat after entering the stomach makes one feel an urge to conquer the world!
"This wine is no good! It won't make you drunk!" Yin Yang suddenly said with a smirk.
Gu Liyan couldn't help but smile. "It's because you have a high alcohol tolerance."
Yin Yang smiled bitterly, "Life is restless, all I want is to get drunk, but alas, the wine doesn't intoxicate, and neither do I!"
Yin Yang tossed down the empty bottle of wine, sighed, and said she was starting to hate leaving the Sea of Death.
"What does the Sea of Death look like?" Gu Liyan asked with a curious expression.
"The Sea of Death?" Yin Yang's eyes flickered. "The souls of all the Celestials who have died are buried there. There are no tombs; it's just a dark sea with biting winds and chilling waters. There are no living people, only the souls of the dead!"
"You're going to stay in that place? Aren't you afraid of those ghosts?" Gu Liyan looked at Yin Yang in shock.
Yin Yang couldn't help but smile. "I was born from the Sea of Death, so why should I be afraid of them?"
"What?" Gu Liyan looked at him in surprise.
"I heard that you are a demon from another race, and perhaps you have not heard of the three legends of the Celestial Clan."
Gu Liyan shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of it.
"One is the Hidden Dragon Abyss, which seals the Black Dragon, a demon god. The gravity field of the Hidden Dragon Abyss originated from that Black Dragon, but now the Black Dragon has been subdued by Zi Chen, and the gravity there has gradually faded."
"Then there is the Sea of Death. It has been said since the ancient times that it is a sea leading to the underworld, so the souls of the Celestial Race who died are buried there... One day, an unknown black and white flower grew in the Sea of Death, and I was born in its embrace when that flower bloomed..."
Gu Liyan stared blankly at Yin Yang, never expecting that he had such an experience.
"Tianxuan adopted me and took me in as his goddaughter. I called him Father Emperor, but after a few years, I discovered that I was different from others." Yin Yang smiled, his eyes narrowed. "I still remember the look of disgust on their faces when they found out I could be hermaphroditic. How ridiculous! In the end, all those who liked me now hate and fear me!"
"Fear you?" Gu Liyan didn't understand why Yin Yang, who was kind-hearted and saved him, would be feared.
"Hmph, do you think... they wouldn't be afraid of a weirdo who can't even be killed by death energy?" Yin Yang turned to look at Gu Liyan, and said helplessly, "Compared to Rui Xin and Qian Mo, I'm the freak!"
"The aura of death?" Gu Liyan frowned, thinking of Hua Baixian.
"In the end, you still don't quite understand what the Contract of Life and Death is, do you?" Yin Yang patiently explained, "Life and death are opposites. One part is life, and one part is death. Tianxuan's true purpose is to bury death and allow all races to attain eternal life!"
For eternal life?
Thousand Absolute Mountain was completely destroyed by the demon race because it possessed an equally eternal divine artifact!
Gu Changyuan betrayed his race because of this, severing his brotherhood with him!
Everyone is obsessed with the desire for immortality!
Gu Liyan's hands were icy cold. He even had a premonition that the Life and Death Pact and the Reincarnation Compass seemed to be related to this—
Yin Yang, oblivious to the change in Gu Liyan's expression, continued, "Tianxuan extracted the life force from all things and implanted it into my mother's body, then sealed the death force in the Flower Lament Pool. However, unexpectedly, none of the Heavenly Clan's gods possessed the physical body and spiritual power to withstand such powerful energy! Thus, the first Flower Goddess died just like that..."
Gu Liyan opened his mouth, but was so shocked that he forgot to speak. In his memory, the Flower Goddess's memories could only be inherited for three generations, so he had no way of knowing this information.
Who would have thought that the first Flower Goddess was Tianxuan's wife! That means...
The Flower Goddess said Luo Zichen and the others' mother?!
Yin Yang's eyes were cold and sinister, a look of pain flashing across them:
"Tianxuan felt that sacrificing a god was nothing, so he disregarded everything and continued to extract life force for his own purposes. The once clear waters of the Flower Sorrow Pool, sealed with endless death energy, have become like this today—"
Gu Liyan gritted his teeth and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp. The spiciness made him hate the culprit deep in his heart!
If I hadn't had a detailed discussion with Yin Yang today, I probably would never have known about the Celestial Clan's conspiracy, nor would I have known the true nature of the death energy within Hua Baixian's body.
The wind is cool, and the snow starts to fall again.
Yin Yang shrank back, cursing angrily, "Damn it, I hate snow the most! If I find out who caused this snow, I'll absorb all their cultivation and throw them into the Sea of Death! Achoo... Damn it! It's still not stopping!"
Still caught up in his emotions, the fox nearly spilled the wine in his cup after hearing Yin Yang's words...
