"Don't worry, he'll be fine," Yin Yang said indifferently.
"Yin Yang, you..."
Before Xuan Qing'er could continue speaking, Yin Yang deliberately interrupted her, saying, "I'll go see him."
After saying that, she didn't look at Xuan Qing'er again and left her sight.
Looking at Yin Yang's retreating figure, Xuan Qing'er really didn't know how to start a conversation.
A sense of unease crept into her heart: "Does Yin Yang... not like me anymore...?"
Ever since she hurt Yin Yang last time, Xuan Qing'er has had this knot in her heart. She talks to Yin Yang with trepidation every day. Now that Yin Yang is intentionally or unintentionally avoiding her, she is even more afraid that Yin Yang will leave her one day.
When will this unspeakable language end?
On the other side, Yin Yang arrived at Gu Liyan's room and sighed when he saw Gu Liyan covered in blood on the bed.
"Hey, why are you sighing for no reason? The person isn't dead yet," Xiao Hu said, pouting slightly.
Yin Yang shook his head. "He won't die, but having lost nine drops of his lifeblood, his physique is now no different from that of a human. To still dream of ascending to the Heavenly Palace to save people is a recipe for certain death!"
Xiao Long glanced at Yin Yang and said, "So, this is your reason for not wanting to save him? You're worried that if you save him, he'll risk his own safety to save someone else?"
Yin Yang lowered his eyes slightly. In the instant he stepped aside, he had forgotten what he was thinking. He only knew that none of them could fight anymore...
Yin and Yang remained silent, creating an eerie atmosphere.
Just then, Gu Liyan slowly opened his eyes and saw Yin Yang standing there with a helpless expression. "Yin Yang..."
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's voice, Yin Yang turned around and looked at Gu Liyan.
Gu Liyan blinked, a bitter smile on his face. "I'm sorry, Yin Yang..."
Yin Yang shuddered: Why are you apologizing? Why are you apologizing, you bastard! I'm the one who should be apologizing!
"I... I unknowingly returned to the Heavenly Palace. I broke the promise I made to you," Gu Liyan said, panting heavily.
Yin Yang pursed his lips and looked at Gu Liyan, never expecting that he would apologize to him for this. Seeing the knife wound on Gu Liyan's chest, he trembled with rage and couldn't help but curse:
"Gu Liyan, at this crucial moment you actually dared to waste your own life force! You are truly the stupidest fox in the world! And you were even injured by humans. Not only are you the stupidest, you are also the weakest fox!"
Hearing Yin Yang scold him, Gu Liyan wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and looked at Xiaolong and Xiaohu, speaking haltingly:
"Hehe, this is... well worth it. Six drops of blood have brought me two... two powerful allies... Look, they're both very powerful, aren't they? This way... this way we have a better chance of saving Xiao Bai..."
Yin Yang clutched his aching head, unsure how to respond to Gu Liyan. He'd gotten himself covered in injuries, and yet he still wanted to go see An Qianbai? How incredibly stupid was he?! How could we possibly fight against the world like this?
That's absolutely fucking stupid!
"Yin Yang..." Gu Liyan felt a little scared when Yin Yang ignored her. "Yin Yang, you wouldn't be on the side of the Heavenly Palace, would you?"
Looking into Gu Liyan's sparkling purple eyes, Yin Yang took a deep breath. Sure enough, he had to speak up today; someone had to force him to choose a side.
Yin Yang swallowed hard, looked into Gu Liyan's eyes, and said:
"Gu Liyan, actually I..."
"Of course, Yin Yang and I will always stand by your side, Xiao Li!" Xuan Qing'er suddenly pushed open the door, interrupting Yin Yang's words.
Gu Liyan glanced at Xuan Qing'er and then at Yin Yang before nodding in relief. "Thank you..."
Xuan Qing'er came over and, seeing Gu Liyan covered in injuries, said with concern, "Little Li, you should rest well. Yin Yang and I will help you save Xiao Bai."
Gu Liyan nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you..."
Xuan Qing'er turned her head to look at Yin Yang. "You agree, right, Yin Yang?"
Yin Yang paused for a moment, then nodded without saying anything.
Stepping out of the room, Yin Yang looked at Xuan Qing'er, hesitant to speak. Xuan Qing'er, having already guessed what he meant, said:
"Actually, Yin Yang, you don't need to consider me when you want to do anything. I'm really not that fragile."
Yin Yang looked at Xuan Qing'er without saying anything.
Xuan Qing'er continued, "Gu Liyan is a friend you were willing to risk your life to save. Now that he's in trouble, if you don't stand up for him, wouldn't all your previous efforts be wasted?"
Yin Yang opened his mouth, but before he could say a word, Xuan Qing'er suddenly hugged him and kissed him directly. Her sweet lips were icy cold, and Yin Yang looked at Xuan Qing'er, who was so proactive, with some surprise.
After a long while, Xuan Qing'er finally separated from him, wrapped her arms around Yin Yang's neck, and spoke with a sincere and sweet expression of happiness:
"Yin Yang, I am your wife, please share your inner pain with me!"
Yin Yang pursed his lips, watching Xuan Qing'er struggle internally.
It's not just Gu Liyan making him make a choice; now Xuan Qing'er is also starting to make him tell the truth?
No, it shouldn't be called the truth, it's just his personal whim, a choice he made to avoid interference from others.
But it was precisely this personal secret that Yin Yang didn't want to share with anyone. He'd rather hide in the Sea of Death, just like before, than tell anyone!
Seeing Yin Yang's conflicted expression, Xuan Qing'er released her hand. She felt genuinely sorry for Yin Yang; her hand was at a loss, and her heart was aching so much that she forgot how to breathe. Yet, she could only force a smile and speak to Yin Yang:
