Yi Sheng rushed over to help Cui Ming up, but Cui Ming stopped him. "Sheng'er, I have misunderstood you for many years. I cannot stand by and watch you die in vain! No matter the cost, I will do everything I can to save your life."
Yisheng stood there blankly, his eyes filled with confusion and melancholy, alternating with a hint of indifferent coldness.
Gu Liyan used the Soul Painting Eye and looked at Yi Sheng indifferently. He did not expect that under the gaze of the Soul Painting Eye, he could not see through Yi Sheng's soul!
Just as he was about to speak, Leng Shaohan suddenly stepped forward and shouted:
"Hmph, you've hidden your ghost very well! The death aura is already showing between your brows; no matter how much you try to conceal it, you can't stop the life force of your body from dissipating!" Leng Shaohan fanned himself with an indifferent expression. "I advise you to finish what you couldn't finish while you still have the chance! Don't waste your time here!"
Upon hearing Leng Shaohan's words, Gu Liyan suddenly realized what was going on and narrowed her eyes as she looked at Yi Sheng, "So you're a soul possessing someone else's body!"
Gu Liyan had already dealt with the evil spirit possessing him, and it was the evil spirit Cangye who caused him to be unable to be with An Qianbai in his previous life!
Gu Liyan immediately lost all goodwill towards Yisheng!
Yi Sheng's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly bowed respectfully to Gu Liyan, saying, "I lost my memories of my previous life and was forced into this state. Now, with my broken body, I only wish to do my part for the Sword Pavilion. If you gentlemen can grant my request, I will be eternally grateful!"
Looking at Yi Sheng's eyes and brows, Leng Shaohan, a man of countless experiences, immediately spoke, "Your eyes and brows are sharp and piercing. Whether you're alive or dead, you don't seem like a good person! I won't lie to you, I could save you without lifting a finger, but I won't do it! Because I—hate humans with sharp edges!"
After saying that, Leng Shaohan flicked his sleeve, turned his back, and never looked at Yi Sheng again, letting him live or die as he was no longer concerned!
Cui Ming's expression changed, and he hurriedly said to Leng Shaohan, "Your Majesty, as long as you save my disciple, I'll do anything for you!"
"Master!" Upon hearing Cui Ming's words, Yi Sheng trembled all over, and a sinister aura began to emanate from his body.
Leng Shaohan's gaze was icy. He waved his hand and sneered, "I only say what I mean once. Take your dying disciple and get out of here!"
After saying that, Leng Shaohan turned and went into the room, closing the door behind him.
Apart from Gu Liyan and Mo Chen, everyone else frowned. Even Jin Yi, who always obeyed Gu Liyan, couldn't understand Leng Shaohan's actions at this moment.
Why would someone refuse so bluntly when they clearly said it would be effortless?
The crowd was puzzled
Gu Liyan raised his eyes, looked deeply at Cui Ming, and said, "Since I saved you thirty years ago, it means I don't owe you anything. Now that you've handed over this Reincarnation Compass to me, I think the debt between us can be settled here!"
Before Cui Ming could react, Gu Liyan had already drifted away.
Jin Yi stared in surprise at Gu Liyan's retreating figure, never expecting that Gu Liyan would also refuse without hesitation!
Suspicious, he immediately gave chase.
Wu Wenfeng scratched his head, glanced at Yi Sheng who had a refined and scholarly air, and couldn't help but mutter, "I think... this guy is gentle and doesn't seem like a bad person. Why won't Brother Gu and Brother Leng save him?"
Mo Chen turned his head and glared at Wu Wenfeng. "Shut up! Go back to your room!"
Wu Wenfeng lowered his head timidly and said, "Yes, elder brother."
Jinwu looked around, his last gaze landing on Mo Chen. He simply nodded in acknowledgment and then walked into Leng Shaohan's room.
Mo Chen looked at Cui Ming, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said:
"If you think that kneeling here will make them take pity on your disciple and heal him, then you are sorely mistaken!"
Cui Ming looked up at Mo Chen. "You, do you have any ideas?"
Mo Chen shook his head and said coldly, "I just want you to give up and not waste your time."
Cui Ming frowned, sighed, and said helplessly, "You're right. Our benefactor is like a completely different person. Why would he care about past favors and help us again?"
Upon hearing Cui Ming's words, a sharp glint flashed in Yi Sheng's eyes, which was then perfectly concealed.
"You're wrong. If it were you who was poisoned, he would have attacked without hesitation. But it was that inhuman ghost behind you! He hates possessing ghosts now!" Mo Chen said calmly.
Yi Sheng looked at Mo Chen with a puzzled expression, wondering when he had offended Gu Liyan.
Seemingly sensing Yi Sheng's gaze, Mo Chen sneered, "Having said that, you still have one day to go. Come back when you have a plan!"
After saying that, Mo Chen turned and left.
Cui Ming stared blankly at Mo Chen's disappearing figure. "One more day? Think of a way? What... does that mean?"
Yi Sheng frowned, recalling Mo Chen's words, then his eyes lit up. Looking at Cui Ming with a cold gaze, he said, "Master, I want to know what to do..."
——
Inside Gu Liyan's room, two handsome young men dressed in white sat facing each other, one playing black pieces and the other white pieces, playing a game of chess.
"I didn't expect you to be so good!" Leng Shaohan smiled as he looked at the black pieces on the chessboard. It seems that playing with you will never be a bad match!
Gu Liyan smiled slightly, the corners of his mouth turning up slightly. "I only copied a couple of moves, I'm no match for you!"
After speaking, Gu Liyan looked at Jin Yi beside her and asked, "I think the two people outside the door have already left, right?"
"There should be no movement!" Jin Yi said respectfully.
