"It's okay, come on!" Gu Liyan said fearlessly.
Rui Xin raised her finger and placed it on Gu Liyan's brow, whereupon a powerful energy gathered...
Guided by Gu Changyuan, Hua Baixian arrived at Gu Liyan's Sea of the Soul, only to find it vast and endless. Remembering Gu Changyuan's instructions, Hua Baixian cried out, "Little Li! Little Li, where are you? It's me, Xiao Bai, I've come to find you!"
The sound echoed here, rippling across the surface of the sea of the soul, and traveled far and wide—
"...It's me, Xiao Bai! I've come to find you!"
Hua Baixian's voice reached Gu Liyan's ears, and Gu Liyan trembled. "Little Bai!"
Seeing Gu Liyan's furrowed brows, closed eyes, and pained expression, yet calling out Hua Baixian's name, Rui Xin was filled with countless emotions.
He sighed inwardly, gave a bitter smile, and thought to himself, "Even if I gave you all my abilities today, you wouldn't even glance at me, would you? Yan Ligu is like that, and so are you..."
Rui Xin sighed repeatedly, looked up at the surrounding purgatory, and smiled bitterly. "You are all of the same origin. I should have known that Yan Ligu treated me this way. No matter how much I give, it will be in vain. You... are all doing this for her!"
Rui Xin stood up, looked at Gu Liyan and said, "The inheritance has been given to you. Go back and slowly comprehend it. Don't keep her waiting..."
Before Gu Liyan could speak, Rui Xin raised her hand and waved it. Gu Liyan's body transformed into a purple light and gradually disappeared from sight.
Watching the light gradually fade and the figure slowly disappear, Rui Xin smiled bitterly, "Gu Liyan, do you know? I gave all my soul power to Yan Ligu, thinking that if we could return to the underworld hand in hand, I could at least get a second glance from him. But all I got in return was heartless indifference..."
"Looking back, it's all my own fault. I couldn't bear missing you time and time again, so I used the law of reincarnation to restrict your fate with Hua Baixian. Now I've really angered your ruthlessness."
"Now I give everything to you. Your fate is in your hands. I... owe you nothing more..."
Rui Xin slowly closed her eyes, and her body gradually grew larger. When she grew into an adult, she looked nine-tenths like Hua Baixian. But in that instant, her face gradually aged, and in the blink of an eye, she turned into withered bones, and then into dust...
Hua Baixian aimlessly searched for Gu Liyan's consciousness in the Sea of Mind, but the place was too vast and she had no idea where his consciousness was. She was so anxious that she kept pacing around in circles.
Just then, a purple light illuminated the entire Sea of the Mind, making the surface of the sea look beautiful. Hua Baixian looked up in the direction of the light and saw that familiar figure. She immediately ran over and called out his name, "Xiao Li!"
During the process of receiving Rui Xin's inheritance, Gu Liyan was completely unaware of Rui Xin's inner feelings, but he knew that she had sent him back.
He was still immersed in the extra information in his consciousness and hadn't reacted yet, but the next second he heard Hua Baixian's call, and he immediately came back to his senses, looked towards the source of the sound, and exclaimed in surprise, "Little Bai!"
Gu Liyan saw Hua Baixian running towards him in the purple light and shadow, and for a moment he could not believe his eyes.
"Xiao Li!"
Hua Baixian called out to Gu Liyan again, and Gu Liyan trembled. There was no mistake! It was her!
"Xiao Bai!"
Gu Liyan was overjoyed and ran towards Hua Baixian. Upon reaching each other, the two embraced tightly without saying a word.
"Xiao Li, I've finally found you!" Hua Baixian hugged Gu Liyan tightly.
Gu Liyan whispered in Hua Baixian's ear, "Little Bai, I'm back..."
The sea of the soul burst forth with boundless light, as if come alive; stars appeared in the sky, as beautiful and dreamlike as a dream.
Through the window, you can see the bright moon in the sky and countless stars.
Hua Baixian opened her eyes and found herself lying on the sofa in the ward, while Gu Liyan was still lying motionless on the hospital bed with his eyes closed.
Hua Baixian hurriedly sat up and went to the bedside. "Xiao Li! Xiao Li!" she called several times, but Gu Liyan did not respond. Hua Baixian was so anxious that she almost cried. "Xiao Li, why aren't you awake yet?"
Lin Momo, who was standing nearby, said, "Sister Hua, don't worry, Brother Mo is fine now."
"Is he alright?" Hua Baixian looked at Gu Liyan, whose face was still pale and whose eyes were still tightly closed, and choked out, "Don't lie to me, if he's alright, why hasn't he woken up yet?"
Hua Baixian buried her face in Gu Liyan's chest and burst into tears, "I'm so useless! I found him, but I still couldn't bring him back!"
Suddenly, a hand gently stroked the back of her head, and a familiar voice spoke weakly, "Why are you crying? I'm alright now."
Hua Baixian's crying stopped abruptly. Although the voice was hoarse, she could still tell who else it was besides Gu Liyan.
Raising his head, Gu Liyan smiled on his pale face, his eyes reflecting Hua Baixian's image.
“Xiao Li…” Hua Baixian’s eyes immediately reddened when she saw Gu Liyan. She rushed over and hugged his neck, tears streaming down her face.
Looking at them, Lin Momo finally understood why Gu Changyuan had left early—it was truly a display of affection! Without saying anything more, she lifted her foot and left the room.
Watching Lin Momo leave, Gu Liyan smiled slightly, "Alright, stop crying, or Lin Momo will laugh at you again."
"She wouldn't dare!" Hua Baixian raised her head and pouted, "Why did you pretend to be asleep when you were awake? Do you know how worried I was about you!"
Gu Liyan said weakly, "I haven't eaten for seven days, so I'm naturally very weak. Besides, after waking up, my father and senior brother opened my meridians, which was quite a ordeal. Of course, I need to rest."
