"What did you say?" Gu Liyan stared blankly at Cang Li.
Who died?
Who would die for him?
this--
How is that possible!
Cang Li looked at Gu Liyan with a cold and indifferent expression. "Don't worry, he didn't complain about his fate or mention you before he died, so you don't need to feel guilty towards him."
Gu Liyan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment. He lowered his head and looked at the bright dragon pearl in his hand. What a sacred object it was! It was without any filth and its light shone brightly, like a lighthouse illuminating the darkness!
This weighed heavily on Gu Liyan's mind!
Thinking about the many people he owed in his life, there was his master Gu Yan who saved his life and guided him throughout his life; his martial uncle Gu Li who taught him kung fu; Gu Changyuan who enlightened him on the path of the Great Dao; and Hua Baixian, Yin Yang, Rui Xin, Qian Mo, Yan Ligu from the Nine Springs Realm, and Mo Chen, whom he met in the Heavenly Palace…
And in this world, I met Boyi Kao, Shen Wei, and even Cangli before my eyes...
Through all the comings and goings, he had become entangled with so many people, and through love and hate, affection and enmity, he had become much more resolute and mature...
The Dragon Balls calmed his mind and suppressed the unease caused by the burning sensation within him.
The night outside the window grew even darker, and the light emanating from the Dragon Ball stretched the shadows of Gu Liyan and Cang Li long.
Gu Liyan spoke softly, “My master often admonished me to be grateful and repay kindness. He said that if one cannot even repay kindness, then one is not even as good as an animal!”
"But how can I repay him if I don't even know his name?" Gu Liyan looked at Cang Li with a sincere expression. "Cang Li, please tell me who he is, okay?"
Cang Li looked up and saw that Gu Liyan's clear purple eyes sparkled with an alluring mystery, the same expression that the brave young man had shown when he parted ways with her!
Only when facing death and desperate situations can one develop such a sense of vicissitude. Gu Liyan, what is the cause of your vicissitudes?
Cang Li stared blankly at Gu Liyan, his handsome face and the peach blossom marks on his eyebrows and eyes blooming so beautifully! He possessed all the beauty in the world!
How could he be so perfectly born? Cang Li lowered her head, feeling somewhat inferior in his presence! How could she possibly refuse a request from someone as flawless as Gu Liyan?
“His name is Li Nezha!” Cang Li gritted her teeth and said, “The four of us entered the forbidden area of the sea tribe. He saved everyone, but he couldn’t save himself!”
Gu Liyan opened her mouth in surprise, "Li Nezha? He's Mo Chen's disciple? I didn't expect him to risk his life for me like this..."
Cang Li saw a hint of hatred in Gu Liyan's eyes and reminded him, "It gets dark quickly and light gets even faster. I hope you can leave before dawn."
Gu Liyan held the Dragon Ball in his hand and looked at Cang Li with a serious expression, saying, "You're not a bad person."
"How can you alone distinguish between good and bad in this world? I'm not afraid to tell you, the Holy Son wants to be the master of this world. He wants to rule this world in his hands. At that time, our bad deeds will only be good!" Cang Li said without any concealment.
Gu Liyan frowned, thinking of Su Xian'er's situation, but he suppressed his melancholy and said, "In any case, thank you for this."
Cang Li gave Gu Liyan a deep look. "Gu Liyan, I suspect that the Holy Son wants to recruit you. Otherwise, he wouldn't have let you go and then tortured you. If you become one of us, he will give you the highest treatment!"
Gu Liyan was taken aback. She hadn't expected Cang Li to understand Bu Yunrui's personality so clearly, except that she hadn't understood her own personality at all.
Gu Liyan shook her head. "I have already rejected him, so I will not change my original intention. I am not a person of this world, so naturally I do not want this world. Since we have different paths, it is better not to work together."
Upon hearing this, Cangli frowned and reminded her, "But the people you care about might be implicated because of your choice. Even so, don't you care?"
Gu Liyan stared blankly at Cang Li, then suddenly smiled. "The person I'm entangled with naturally has her own destiny. But I really don't understand why all of you think I'm extraordinary? I'm clearly just an ordinary little fox demon. I can't change this world, and my strength is barely enough to protect myself."
Cang Li looked at the unrestrained smile between Gu Liyan's brows and felt his carefree side. She heard him continue to speak, "In this world, to do what I can and to protect the people I love is the meaning of my life, Gu Liyan."
Those eyes were as resolute as an unwavering rock, and she spoke without fear, "If I cannot do it, then I will go to my death with her! What is there to fear? Isn't this the meaning of life?"
Cang Li stared at him blankly, Gu Liyan's words echoing in her ears for a long time:
Do what you can to protect those you love; if you cannot, then go to the underworld with those you love!
This is the meaning of life!
After a while, Cang Li came to her senses, only to find that Gu Liyan had already left sometime earlier.
"Gu Liyan... someone as persistent as you is no ordinary person!" Cang Li murmured to herself as she looked at the approaching dawn.
As Cang Li stepped out of the training room, she bumped into Bu Yunrui.
"Why don't you just come to me?" Bu Yunrui asked Cang Li coldly.
"I was delayed by some things," Cangli said without fear.
"Because of Gu Liyan, right?" Bu Yunrui's gaze was scrutinizing.
Cangli raised her head and said without hesitation, "That's right! His forbidden spell just activated."
Bu Yunrui laughed loudly, then looked at Cang Li with a cold gaze, "I harmed him, and you went to save him. Cang Li, do you want to oppose me now?"
Cang Li thought of Gu Liyan's sincere gaze, and looked at Bu Yunrui with a serious expression, saying, "Gu Liyan will never lower his head to beg for your help. Rather than that, it's better to let him owe you. The more he owes you, the more different feelings he will have for you."
Bu Yunrui looked at Cang Li with surprise, then thought about it and suddenly realized that it made a lot of sense. However, looking at Cang Li's neither humble nor arrogant gaze, he became even angrier. "It's not your place to lecture me!"
Cang Li then realized that her gaze might have been presumptuous, so she lowered her head and said in a nonchalant tone, "Please forgive me, Holy Son!"
The more indifferent Cang Li remained, the more impatient Bu Yunrui became, coldly demanding, "Tell me about the sea tribe!"
Cang Li watched as he recounted most of the events to Bu Yunrui.
Bu Yunrui's eyes lit up immediately. "Hahaha! I knew that gate existed! Once we unify this world, you and I will go to the sea tribe and make sure we get the key to that gate!"
Cang Li looked at Bu Yunrui, who was looking excited, without saying anything. She didn't even tell him how terrifying the guide was!
