The word "separation" seemed to have become meaningless to Gu Liyan; her bewildered gaze gazed aimlessly into the distance.
Just then, a figure appeared before them...
An Qianbai couldn't bear looking at Gu Liyan's empty gaze any longer, so she got up and went to Gu Liyan, waving her hand in an attempt to get his attention.
Gu Liyan saw An Qianbai frown slightly, glared at her, and coldly asked, "What do you want to do?"
Seeing that Gu Liyan was willing to speak, An Qianbai hurriedly picked up the mission scroll from the ground and handed it to Gu Liyan. Gu Liyan glanced at her and asked, "You want to go too?"
An Qianbai nodded, then lowered her head. She knew that given her status and Gu Liyan's dislike for her, she would definitely be rejected, and she didn't dare to look at Gu Liyan.
Gu Liyan took the mission scroll, glanced at it, then looked up at An Qianbai, who was looking expectant, and frowned slightly. "I can let you follow me, but you have to do whatever I tell you to do. Do you understand?"
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, An Qianbai's eyes lit up, and she obediently nodded.
Gu Liyan sighed, took out the Nine Springs Token, a wooden plaque with gold lettering, from the mission scroll. It was also the pass token for this world. "Let's go."
An Qianbai was slightly taken aback, looking at Gu Liyan with surprise as he walked out. "What are you still standing there for? Come on!"
Gu Liyan coldly uttered a sentence, and An Qianbai followed him happily. When they reached the door, Gu Liyan paused, glanced at the Nine Springs Token in his hand, hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and stepped out of the Reincarnation Mirror—
As soon as he stepped out, he was greeted by a sea of documents. Gu Liyan stood there stunned, unable to react for a long time. He then saw Mo Han buried in the sea of books.
"You've recovered so quickly? Looks like your resilience is getting better and better." Mo Han peeked out and teased Gu Liyan and An Qianbai as they walked in.
Gu Liyan glared at Mo Han, then took a deep breath looking at the mess on the ground. "What happened here?"
Mo Han stood up from the sea of books, dusted himself off, and said, "What could have happened? It's just that I'm busy with too many tasks to handle..."
"So that's why you let me go free and let me do things for you?" Gu Liyan squinted at Mo Han.
“Mo Li, you should know that you are still a member of the Punishers. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. As the Lord of the Realm, I will naturally set aside past grievances and unite against external enemies.” Mo Han said righteously.
Gu Liyan glared at him. "We'll settle things about what happened before when I get back!"
Mo Han's lips curled up slightly. "As long as you can complete the task, I can back down."
Gu Liyan wasted no more time, turned around and left. An Qianbai glanced at Mo Han indifferently behind her, and followed Gu Liyan out.
Pushing aside the files scattered on the floor, Mo Han sat down in a chair, gently tapping the table with her fingers. A slight smile played on her lips as she uttered something inexplicable:
"It's all done, Gu Liyan. I really hope you go to that world last—to meet her!"
—Transcending Time and Space
Stepping into the new world, the air in this dark jungle is thin and filled with the smell of decay. Then, the mournful cries of crows echo from the depths of the forest. Black crows circle in the gray sky for a long time, unwilling to leave, as if foreshadowing their departure.
White light suddenly descended from the depths of the sky, then vanished into the world.
Upon landing, An Qianbai's legs felt weak, and she sat down directly on the ground. Gu Liyan frowned and said coldly, "The gravity in this world is very strong, and the spiritual energy in the air is also very thin. If you can't adapt, you should stay in Jiuquan for your next mission."
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, An Qianbai hurriedly stood up and shook her head. She didn't want to leave, and she didn't want to wait any longer.
Seeing An Qianbai's pleading gaze, Gu Liyan sighed, "Alright, I was just saying. I can't send it back to you right now."
Hearing Gu Liyan's words, An Qianbai couldn't help but smile. Gu Liyan's sternness was sometimes quite endearing.
"The task is simple: resolve the dispute between three families and arrange a perfect marriage in this world," Gu Liyan said calmly.
Upon hearing Gu Liyan explain the mission details, An Qianbai stared blankly at him: "You call this easy?!"
Gu Liyan looked at the small star map displayed on the Nine Springs Token in his hand and led the way: "Let's go, our destination is just outside this forest."
An Qianbai followed behind Gu Liyan with her lips pursed. Before they had taken more than a few steps, Gu Liyan suddenly stopped. Because they were too close, An Qianbai bumped into Gu Liyan's back and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Gu Liyan turned to look at An Qianbai, who was still wearing the same prison uniform and had the same iron chains on her hands and feet. He asked with some confusion, "Why are you still dressed like this?"
An Qianbai glared at Gu Liyan: She's always dressed like this!
Gu Liyan frowned slightly, bent down, raised his hand and grasped the iron chain under An Qianbai's feet. With a slight exertion, a "crack" was heard, and the iron chain broke directly, along with the bracelet.
An Qianbai stared blankly at Gu Liyan, speechless.
Gu Liyan looked at An Qianbai's stern face, stroked his chin, and thought for a moment, "This doesn't really suit you..."
Gu Liyan's eyes suddenly lit up. "Why don't you change into men's clothing!"
An Qianbai blinked, and Gu Liyan casually pulled out a piece of clothing and stuffed it into An Qianbai's hands. "Here, put this on."
An Qianbai was stunned, looking at the white clothes in her hand, her face slightly red: This, are these the clothes that Xiao Li wore?
Noticing An Qianbai's expression, Gu Liyan awkwardly said, "Don't worry, I won't peek."
As Gu Liyan turned around, An Qianbai couldn't help but chuckle at his embarrassed expression, and started changing her clothes right behind him.
