Chapter 198 Deceiving Oneself



The blue ocean is like a dream, carrying countless dreams, yet in its depths lies endless darkness.

The sound of waves echoed in my ears, a tranquil and serene atmosphere, unlike the bustling city.

All of this comes from the mysterious ocean, and is also a declaration from the depths of the soul!

Gu Liyan opened his eyes and found himself in his own sea of ​​souls.

The familiar atmosphere remained, along with an endless and unfathomable mystery.

Looking down into the darkness of the deep sea beneath his feet, he silently gazed at it, as if his consciousness was about to sink into the ocean. Just as his vision was enveloped by darkness and his consciousness was about to be swallowed by it, Gu Liyan shuddered and came back to his senses:

"Was the trip to the Heavenly Palace just a dream? If it was a dream, how could it feel so real..."

Gu Liyan subconsciously clenched his fist, then suddenly looked down at his right hand, only to find it clutching the farewell wine Yin Yang had given him before their parting...

—On the other side

With a name already chosen, and thanks to Hua Yuxian's assistance and Gu Yixian's efforts, Tao'er has now been born...

His skin was as white as snow, and he was fast asleep with his cherry-like mouth open. You could hear his faint, even, and rhythmic breathing.

He seemed to be dreaming about something in his sleep. He stuck out his little tongue, a little drool dripped from the corner of his mouth, and he smacked his lips twice. He was so cute!

Looking at Xiao Tao's adorable sleeping face in her arms, Gu Yixian couldn't help but smile.

"You just gave birth, you should rest more." Seeing Gu Yixian's pale face but tireless caress of Xiao Tao, Hua Yuxian couldn't help but remind her.

At this moment, Gu Yixian's face was completely pale, and the sweat on her face was still wet. Her eyes showed exhaustion, but when she saw her child, she completely forgot about that exhaustion.

Seeing that Gu Yixian showed no intention of resting, Hua Yuxian sighed. She always felt that Gu Yixian resembled someone else. Who was that person...?

Hua Yuxian frowned. Although Gu Liyan seemed unreliable, he was actually very cautious and steady. Except for Gu Yixian, he probably wouldn't act recklessly.

In that case, she does resemble that Mo Chen somewhat! That guy is ruthless when it comes to achieving his goals!

Hua Yuxian suddenly remembered Mo Chen's poisoning and her heart tightened. "He hasn't shown up for so long, could something have happened to him?"

Gu Yixian was oblivious to Hua Yuxian's state of mind, as all her attention was focused on Xiao Tao in her arms.

Unlike ordinary humans, Xiao Tao has a pair of fluffy white ears and a small tail behind her, making no attempt to hide her identity as a little fox.

Suddenly, Gu Yixian noticed a beauty mark under Xiao Tao's right eye, in the same spot as Gu Liyan's. Gu Yixian couldn't help but smile, "It seems Xiao Tao looks more like Xiao Liyan!"

Upon hearing Gu Yixian's words, Hua Yuxian also looked at Xiao Tao. After examining her for a while, she had to admit that the little guy really looked like Gu Liyan. "He really does look like him."

Hua Yuxian nodded, pointing to Xiao Tao's eyes and saying, "Especially the beauty mark at the corner of her eye..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Hua Yuxian suddenly choked, as if she remembered someone else as well. That person, it seemed...

Hua Yuxian frowned, feeling a real headache coming on because she had no memories of the past.

Just then, the door was suddenly kicked open, startling the two of them, who looked towards the outside—

Then, an old, wrinkled face appeared before them.

Her clothes seemed a bit too big, partly because her body was withered and thin; no matter how gorgeous her clothes were, they lacked any sense of "beauty."

Looking at the old man before her, Hua Yuxian frowned slightly. Although she didn't sense any threat from him, she did feel a murderous intent spreading from him...

Hua Yuxian coldly asked, "Senior, who are you?"

"Senior?"

The old man's voice was hoarse, yet carried a shrill, grating quality. Hua Yuxian knew that this old man seemed to dislike being called old.

The old man chuckled, his voice carrying an eerie quality. Hua Yuxian and Gu Yixian exchanged a glance, simultaneously becoming wary.

The old man's cold gaze was indifferent. He glanced at Hua Yuxian beside him and sneered. Then his gaze fell on Gu Yixian, and his eyes narrowed. "Gu Yixian, I didn't expect you to give birth to that bastard child safely! You're really something!"

Those eyes flashed with an unusual coldness, all directed at Gu Yixian!

Gu Yixian frowned slightly, feeling that she had seen those eyes somewhere before, but she couldn't remember who they belonged to.

The intense fear made her tremble uncontrollably.

Seeing that Gu Yixian was frightened, Hua Yuxian turned her head and squinted at the old man, coldly saying, "I don't care who you are, but please show some respect as a person!"

Seeing Hua Yuxian speak up for Gu Yixian, the old man snorted coldly and curled his lip, saying, "Hmph, who are you? It's one thing for that bitch Gu Yixian to be bewitched by that dead fox, but you, a woman of unknown origin and dressed in a seductive manner, have also been bewitched by that fox and forgotten your true nature?"

"What? You—" Hua Yuxian was about to say something when Gu Yixian suddenly got off the bed, came to Hua Yuxian's side, and put Xiao Tao into her arms. Hua Yuxian stared blankly at Gu Yixian, "Gu Yixian, what are you doing..."

Gu Yixian walked towards the old man, speaking without turning her head, "No matter who you are, if we have a grudge, you can hit me or scold me, but you absolutely cannot scold my Xiao Li, or my sister!"

Upon hearing the words "my sister," the old man couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Hahaha... sister? She's your sister?"
