Two dead people, for no apparent reason, are going to protect Gu Liyan?!
Are you crazy?!
Could it be that during the time he was unconscious and recuperating, Gu Liyan and those two guys had some unspeakable secret?
While Mo Chen was still confused, a white light flashed, and a familiar figure emerged after the light dissipated.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Xiaolong and Xiaohu became even more wary, as he exuded a terrifying aura and was slowly walking towards them.
When Mo Chen saw Mo Yan come to pick them up, he immediately got up and said irritably, "Old fox, you've come to pick up your son!"
Mo Yan snorted and glared at Mo Chen: "You little brat who messes things up at the crucial moment!"
Mo Chen choked, he didn't want to mess things up either! It was just that Bu Yunzhi's methods were a bit strange, and he became weaker and weaker as the fight went on.
Upon seeing Mo Yan, Xiao Long frowned slightly, sensing that the aura emanating from this person was identical to that of Gu Liyan.
Seeing that Xiaolong and Xiaohu didn't say anything, Mo Yan turned his gaze to Gu Liyan. But at that glance, Mo Yan froze and blurted out subconsciously, "A life-and-death contract?!"
Mo Yan's words startled Mo Chen. "What?!"
If the life force and the death force are alone in one person, it is not a big deal. But if they are called a "life and death contract", it will definitely drive everyone in the Nine Springs Realm crazy!
If one can control life and death, and if a life-and-death contract is truly formed through the circulation within the body, that person can become a walking ghost!
With a solemn expression, Mo Yan moved swiftly to stand in front of Gu Liyan, pushed aside Xiao Long and Xiao Hu, and began to examine Gu Liyan's pulse.
Just as Xiao Hu was about to lash out, Xiao Long stopped him, telling him rationally that he couldn't have a conflict with this old man.
Seeing Mo Yan's solemn expression, Mo Chen immediately sensed something was wrong and stepped forward, asking with a worried look, "Are you sure? Is it really a life-and-death contract?"
Mo Yan looked at Gu Liyan, his somewhat aged face unable to express his feelings at that moment.
Is this a good thing?
No, this is a bad thing!
Before the life-and-death pact is fully formed, everyone will keep an eye on Gu Liyan and try to see the life and death energy within him!
Even in the netherworld, he would be in danger!
"Xiao Li's life force has been completely exhausted. Let's take him to heal first. Don't tell anyone about the life-and-death contract. We'll talk about everything after he recovers!" Mo Yan sighed and said.
Then, turning to Mo Chen with a solemn expression, she said, "Also, don't appear in front of Xiao Tao before Xiao Li wakes up. Don't let him know that Xiao Li is injured. That child has progressed too quickly these days, and his mind is a bit immature. I'm worried he might act impulsively..."
Mo Chen nodded without hesitation. "I know."
Mo Yan sighed, but then caught a glimpse of Xiao Long and Xiao Hu out of the corner of his eye, and immediately asked in surprise, "How did you two get here?"
For some reason, Xiao Hu felt a sense of fear when he looked at Mo Yan's intimidating gaze, and subconsciously shrank behind Xiao Long.
Xiao Long's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "We are Gu Liyan's friends. After he was enveloped in a light, we came here too..."
Mo Yan squinted at them, suddenly sensing a familiar aura emanating from them, and immediately barked:
"Friends? What kind of friends are you that my son has wasted so much of his energy on you two ants?!"
Xiao Long was startled. Mo Yan was right to say they were ants; their arrogance couldn't be ignited in front of him. He immediately stammered, "..."
"Yes, it was Gu Liyan who used his lifeblood to break the seal on us, which is why we have the scent of his lifeblood on us..."
"A seal?!" Hearing this, Mo Yan became even more curious. He stared at them for a long time, and suddenly a figure flashed through his memory. He immediately exclaimed, "It's Gu Li! Have you two met Gu Li before?"
Xiao Long's legs went weak and he almost knelt on the ground. Mo Yan's voice made his soul tremble violently. Xiao Hu behind him had already collapsed to the ground, staring blankly at Mo Yan without saying a word.
Xiao Long trembled all over; this powerful aura rendered him speechless!
"Answer me, what exactly is your relationship with Gu Li!" Mo Yan immediately demanded.
Xiao Long could no longer bear it and knelt down on the ground. He was afraid that if he didn't kneel down, Mo Yan would beat them to a pulp in the next second!
Just then, a weak voice rang out:
“I’ve met… Uncle-Master Gu Li…”
Upon hearing the weak voice, Mo Yan's attitude instantly changed 180 degrees. He turned around and approached Mo Chen with a gentle and kind expression. Gu Liyan, who was lying weakly in Mo Chen's arms, softly spoke to Mo Yan, "Father..."
"Xiao Li, you're awake? Are you alright?" Mo Yan's gentle voice made Xiao Long look doubtful. He couldn't believe that this was the same person who had just been exuding a murderous aura!
Gu Liyan spoke weakly, "Father... I'm sorry, I'm tired now... I..."
"Alright, alright, I won't ask anymore. You just need to rest and recover. We'll talk about it when you've fully recovered." Mo Yan's voice was very low, as if he was afraid of disturbing Gu Liyan.
Gu Liyan nodded, then looked at Xiao Hu and Xiao Long and said, "They... are my friends..."
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, Xiaolong and Xiaohu trembled and looked at Gu Liyan with gratitude.
Mo Yan didn't say anything more and hurriedly said, "Yes, Father understands. I will send someone to find them a place to stay."
Gu Liyan nodded slightly, a bitter smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "Thank you, Father... I... I'm tired..."
