Gu Yan was shocked. "Two consecutive drops of blood can compare the strength of bloodlines. If the blood of relatives quickly merges, it can be determined whether they are related! Could it be that Xiao Li really is..."
My child?!
"No, it's impossible! Xiao Li, he's just a snow fox I found in the Gravity Abyss, he can't, he can't be my child—"
Gu Yan panicked and dropped the spirit tablet to the ground. The words "Spirit of Creation" on it were faintly glowing, but Gu Yan did not notice them.
Thinking of Gu Liyan's heartbroken and tearful expression at the end, and looking at the blood all over the ground, Gu Yan knelt down helplessly, "It's my fault, Master, it's Father's fault! It's my fault that you... suffered even more injuries!"
At this moment, Gu Li and Gu Changyuan arrived at the ancestral hall. Both were astonished to see Gu Yan kneeling on the ground. Seeing the blood and the mess, Gu Changyuan rushed forward and asked worriedly, "Master, are you injured?"
Gu Yan turned his back to the two of them and shook his head slightly. His trembling hands touched the blood on the ground. The temperature was extremely hot, as if it were burning his soul!
"Is it our enemy?" Gu Li asked cautiously.
Gu Yan stood up dejectedly and shook his head.
The two looked at Gu Yan with concern, and Gu Changyuan went up to help him up, asking, "Master, what happened?"
Gu Changyuan stepped forward and was immediately startled to find Gu Yan's face streaked with tears. "Master, Master, what happened to you—"
Gu Li also noticed something was wrong. "Gu Yan, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Yan cried out in utter grief, "Xiao Li... I killed Xiao Li!"

The two were taken aback.
Suddenly, Gu Yan thought of something, "No, I can still save him, Xiao Li, I'll go save Xiao Li..." He turned around and chased after Yan Muxue.
Gu Changyuan and Gu Li hurriedly followed.
...
A wildflower blooms by the roadside, a smile that could launch a thousand ships, and you arrive. Through wind and rain, we've weathered countless storms together; we'll support each other until our hair turns white…
"Xiao Li, do you know?" Yan Muxue's face was streaked with tears, and she forced a smile, her words indistinguishable between tears and laughter.
"When I ran out just now, I suddenly realized that I am no longer afraid of the darkness of this world."
"When I faced the darkness, you were always by my side. Now, even when I'm alone, just knowing that you'll be there for me makes me feel less afraid..."
"You make me fearless in the darkness, how can I repay you?"
"I know you don't like me, but I think it's enough that I, Yan Muxue, like you!"
"If I could, please let me stay with you in the darkness. I'd be your shadow, your crutch, I'd do anything! So... please don't die!"
