"I am Mo Li, the Punisher of the Nine Springs, and I have appointed Mo Chen as my lifelong companion to jointly protect the Nine Springs Realm—"
Mo Li felt as if she had returned to the past...
"I, an unclaimed artifact of the Nine Springs Realm, am willing to sign a contract with Mo Li, the Punisher of the Nine Springs, to protect Mo Li and the Nine Springs Realm for life, to share glory and disgrace, and to live and die together!"
From then on, all her memories were related to Gu Liyan. They were close friends who stood together through thick and thin and never betrayed each other!
Click, click—
Mo Chen clenched his fists, his breathing becoming rapid. "What, what is this? What is this?!"
The illusory soul smiled and asked, "Do you remember now?"
"Mo Li, he, he..."
"He saved you with his own life, swore an oath with his soul to vouch for you, and you..." The illusory soul's gaze suddenly turned cold, "yet you plotted to frame him! You wanted to kill him! You wanted to take his place!"
"No, no." Mo Chen slumped to the ground, utterly defeated. "Mo Li, he..."
He should hate Gu Liyan, but the memories he recalled after his second awakening told him that the fact that Gu Liyan was willing to sacrifice himself for him made it impossible for him to hate him!
"He's at this address now. If you want to kill him, you can send someone over." The ethereal soul left an address on a piece of paper and spoke before disappearing.
Looking at the address, Mo Chen hesitated. After thinking for a moment, he called his subordinate and said, "Go here and find Mo Li. Remember not to show your face. Tell me everything he did throughout the day."

While he was trimming the flowers and plants in the garden, he suddenly noticed a shadow moving on the wall at his feet. Gu Liyan smiled and didn't make a sound. Whether it was friend or foe, it was none of his business now. Cherishing the days he spent with Hua Baixian was the most important thing!
Gu Liyan was very satisfied with the garden work and was about to leave when his expression suddenly changed, his eyes widened and his whole body trembled—it hurt!
Gu Liyan was too weak to hold the spray bottle and it fell to the ground. He collapsed to the ground, curled up in pain, and was sweating profusely.
Upon seeing Gu Liyan collapse on the wall, the man rushed over, but then noticed that the door to a guest room nearby was open, so he immediately hid again.
When Li Erniang came out of the room, she saw Gu Liyan lying on the ground with a pained expression on his face. She rushed over and asked, "Idol, what's wrong?"
Gu Liyan's face was grim. He grabbed Li Erniang's hand and held it tightly, speaking slowly and deliberately, "No, don't make a sound—take me, take me back to my room..."
At this point, Gu Liyan, overwhelmed by pain, collapsed into Li Erniang's arms.
"Back, back to the room? Back to my room?" Li Erniang's face lit up with a lovesick smile. Not daring to waste any time, she used all her strength to carry Gu Liyan on her back—
