Gu Changyuan smiled as he looked at Gu Liyan and Gu Yan, his eyes showing a hint of weariness and vicissitude.
Gu Liyan looked at Gu Changyuan with suspicion, thinking to himself, "Strange, Senior Brother was just with Feng Huaxian, how come he's here now?"
Gu Yan, standing beside him, pointed at Gu Changyuan with a trembling finger and said coldly, "You beast, you actually injured your martial uncle!"
Gu Changyuan glanced at Gu Li lying on the ground and chuckled, "Who told him to be disobedient and not give me the divine artifact? There was no other way, I had to find it myself..."
As he spoke, Gu Changyuan took out the divine artifact, "Who would have thought that you would guard such a broken and tattered thing as a treasure for so long..."
Gu Yan hurriedly said, "Don't move!"
Gu Changyuan smiled slightly and said calmly, "Master, are you worried that I might accidentally activate the Reincarnation Compass?"
"What use is this divine artifact to you? Put it down now!" Gu Yan urged.
Gu Changyuan examined the Samsara Compass in his hand and said, "There's only one in this world that can be called a divine artifact, isn't there? My master has guarded it for so long without ever using it. Why not put it to good use? That would be a contribution to the world."
"For you, senior brother, what counts as the appropriate place to use it?" Gu Liyan asked curiously.
Upon hearing Gu Liyan's question, Gu Changyuan looked at Gu Liyan with a solemn expression but did not speak.
Gu Liyan asked in confusion, "Senior brother, what exactly can this divine artifact be used for?"
Gu Changyuan stared wide-eyed at Gu Liyan in astonishment. He opened his mouth but before he could speak, Gu Liyan stepped forward, narrowed his eyes, and coldly said, "Senior brother, tell me, what exactly happened!"
Gu Changyuan glanced at Gu Liyan, then at Gu Yan, and finally looked at the Reincarnation Compass, his face filled with shock. "How is this possible? How is this possible!?"
Gu Changyuan raised his head, pointed at Gu Liyan, and said, "You don't even know..."
Before Gu Changyuan could finish speaking, a figure flashed by and snatched the Samsara Compass from Gu Changyuan's hand.
Gu Liyan looked closely and saw that it was indeed Ping'er!
Ping'er played with the Reincarnation Compass in her hand, squinting as she spoke, "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind! Today, I'll be the oriole!"
Seeing Ping'er snatch his Reincarnation Compass, Gu Changyuan hurriedly said, "Your Highness! This was requested by the Palace Master to be delivered; you cannot..."
Ping'er interrupted Gu Changyuan, coldly saying, "This prince can do whatever he wants; why should anyone else have a say?"
Gu Changyuan immediately lowered his head and dared not speak.
Ping'er looked at Gu Liyan and said with a smile, "You know the truth of the matter now, Gu Liyan, you can go back!"
Gu Liyan was taken aback. "What truth? Where do you want me to go back to?"
Ping'er smiled slightly and said, word by word, "When you get back, you'll naturally understand!"
After speaking, Ping'er took out the Reincarnation Compass and pointed it at Gu Liyan. Gu Liyan immediately felt a blur before his eyes—
The light that enveloped Gu Liyan was so dazzling that no one could see what was happening in front of them. As the light gradually faded, Gu Liyan was no longer there.
Gu Yan's eyes immediately reddened as he glared at Ping'er, furious. "Girl, did you take Xiao Li away?"
Ping'er put away the Reincarnation Compass and said with a smile, "You saw it too, it was I who used the Reincarnation Compass to send Gu Liyan away! Because—he doesn't belong here at all!"
Gu Yan looked at Ping'er in shock. "What do you mean?"
Ping'er sneered, "Of course it means exactly what it says! Do you think Gu Liyan's personality and behavior are the same as before? Or do you believe that after you saved him from the brink of death, he is as normal as ever without any aftereffects?"
"Although the Longevity Grass is precious, it is still just a lowly immortal herb in the mortal realm. Even so, it is impossible for hundreds or thousands of them to become an extraordinary Resurrection Grass!" Ping'er's lips curled up slightly. "Let me tell you this: Gu Liyan was not saved by you. He recovered on his own... an immortal body!"
Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, "Xiao Li, he..."
“I just used the Reincarnation Compass to send him back to where he belongs. When the time comes, you will naturally meet again!” With that, Ping’er turned and walked towards Gu Changyuan.
Approaching Gu Changyuan, he said, "Are you trying to play mysterious with me? Actually, you want to use the Reincarnation Compass to make up for what you didn't accomplish in the past, right?"
Gu Changyuan lowered his head and said, "I wouldn't dare!"
"Hmph, if there's a next time, Yan Ligu should really give you a good talking-to!" Ping'er sneered.
Gu Changyuan lowered his head, not daring to look up.
Ping'er said irritably, "Tell me, who else came with you this time?"
Gu Changyuan lowered his head and said respectfully, "Reporting to the Palace Master, it is Mo Chen."
"Mo Chen?!" Ping'er's eyelids twitched, and she frowned as she hurriedly took out the Reincarnation Compass and handed it to Gu Changyuan. "I don't want to see that guy. Go and give him the Reincarnation Compass, and then leave quickly!"
Gu Changyuan nodded. "Yes!"
After speaking, he raised his head and was about to leave when he glanced at Gu Yan. He wanted to say something, but hesitated because Ping'er was standing beside him. Reluctantly, he turned and left.
Seeing Gu Changyuan's expression, Gu Yan angrily exclaimed, "Hmph, that beast!" Just as Gu Yan was about to chase after him, Ping'er reached out and stopped him.
"Stop chasing him. You should check on this man's injuries. After all, you're no match for Changyuan right now!"
Hearing Ping'er's words, Gu Yan looked incredulous. Gu Li, lying on the ground, weakly cursed, "You old fox, why aren't you coming to save me!"
Gu Yan glanced at Gu Li, whose face was pale and seemed to be seriously injured. Helpless, he could only step forward to check Gu Li's injuries, only to find that all the acupoints on his body were sealed by the power of lightning.
