Luo Zichen looked at Gu Yan with a pleading expression and said, "Fox Immortal, I beg you in my capacity as a servant of the people, please take Xiaoxue in! Please save her, for the sake of our past acquaintance!"
Gu Yan turned his gaze coldly to Yan Muxue, only then noticing that she was surrounded by a deathly aura. Whether out of sympathy or moved by Luo Zichen's sincerity, he actually nodded and said, "Okay."
Everyone stared at Gu Yan in astonishment. Yan Muxue trembled with fear, "I don't want him to save me! I'd rather die than stay here! Granny, Granny, let's go home! I want to go home!"
Snap—
Luo Zichen slapped Yan Moxue across the face. Yan Moxue looked at Luo Zichen with a wronged expression, tears streaming down her face.
"You're staying because I told you to! This is to save your life! Are you trying to anger me to death by disobeying Grandmother?!" Luo Zichen trembled with anger. Keeping her here was so that she could see Gu Yan and the others again someday!
Yan Muxue covered her face and choked out, "No, no, Grandma. Xiaoxue wouldn't dare..."
"Then stay!" Luo Zichen said without room for argument.
Yan Muxue nodded and said nothing more.
Luo Zichen turned her head and bowed deeply to Gu Yan, "Thank you, Fox Fairy, for accepting Xiaoxue."
Gu Yan pursed her lips, wanting to say something, but held back. Instead, she said, "Once her luck is restored, I will send her back—"

Gu Yan took a half-step forward, seemingly wanting to call out to her, but he didn't say anything. The beauty of the past was gone; let them take all the memories with them from this world…
Seeing that everyone had stopped arguing, Gu Liyan felt a darkness before her eyes, her body went limp, and she fell to the ground.
Yan Muxue was startled and rushed over, only to find that Gu Liyan had already fainted. She hurriedly shouted, "Hey, are you alright?"
Gu Yan said, "Stop shouting, the person has already fainted."
Upon hearing this, Yan Muxue immediately shut her mouth and dared not utter a word.
Gu Li glared at Gu Yan and turned to leave, but Gu Yan coldly called out from behind, "Go stand in the corner and face the wall!"
"Hmph!" Gu Li snorted coldly and walked away like the wind.
Gu Yan looked at Yan Muxue and the unconscious Gu Liyan and said calmly, "Carry him back."
Yan Muxue pouted and glared at Gu Liyan, "What bad luck!"
Carrying Gu Liyan on his back was an unexpected development; Gu Liyan was very light, which is why he didn't complain...
