Seeing this, Su Xian'er became worried and couldn't help but shout, "Stop! All of you, get out of here!"
Gu Liyan continued walking towards Su Xian'er without stopping, seemingly talking to himself:
"I liked a girl named Hua Baixian. She saved me twice, but in the end, because of me, she left me forever."
"In search of her reincarnation, I traveled to various places and finally saw her shadow in a girl..."
Su Xian'er's eyes flickered slightly.
"After confirming repeatedly, she is indeed the Flower Fairy I have been looking for."
"I met her when she was ten years old. I happily told her my name, but not long after we parted, when I looked for her again, she had forgotten me!"
Gu Liyan stopped in front of Su Xian'er and took her hand. "I think that since she has forgotten me, there is no need for me to disturb her life anymore..."
"Thinking of the kindness I have shown her, the only thing I can give her is a peaceful world! Therefore, in order to give her a stable life, I have decreed that the demon race should not participate in the conflicts between humans..."
"But I never expected that I would end up being seriously injured by a villain..."
Su Xian'er trembled as she recalled Gu Liyan's pained expression from before.
"Luckily, I'm alive and well... She saved me again! Five years have passed since I met her again. She's changed. She's grown up gracefully, beautiful as a flower, and just as lovely as before!" Gu Liyan raised his hand and gently stroked Su Xian'er's head, smiling as he spoke.
Tears streamed down Su Xian'er's face. It turned out that the person Gu Liyan was talking about was herself!
"I thought our fates would never intersect again, but I still can't help wanting to protect her, and I've also come to understand her feelings for me. But at the same time, I'm also afraid..."
Gu Liyan's eyes reddened slightly. "I don't know how long this peace can last. She is a human with a limited lifespan. I just want to fulfill all her needs as much as possible, even if it costs me everything in this life!"
"Waaah, stop talking! I'm sorry, Gu Liyan, I misunderstood you!" Su Xian'er hugged Gu Liyan tightly and said.
Gu Liyan smiled slightly and raised his head, holding back his tears. He had endured so much alone for so long just to gain her approval. Now that she was by his side, he had nothing to regret!
"Xian'er, come back with me." Gu Liyan held Su Xian'er's hand, and from this moment on, he didn't want to let go.
Su Xian'er hesitated for a moment, then let go of his hand. "No, my father wrote me a letter in his own hand, asking me to go back. I have no choice but to go back."
Gu Liyan paused for a moment without speaking.
Seeing Gu Liyan's somewhat disappointed expression, Su Xian'er quickly said, "Don't worry, I can still sneak out. You'll wait for me, right?"
Gu Liyan chuckled, "Alright, I know. Go ahead and don't worry, I'll wait for you!"
No matter how long it takes, I will wait...
"Well, I'll head back now. You have to wait for me!"
"Yes!" Gu Liyan nodded firmly, watching Su Xian'er's departing figure.
He raised his hand, and the lingering warmth in his palm sent a chill down his spine.
—Hopefully, we won't be like we were in our last life, unable to turn back.
