"yes!"

Everyone shouted in unison, mustered all their energy, and channeled their true qi into the array's core.

"Liuli, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Gu Jinyan held her hand tightly, his tall, slender figure standing beside her like a mountain.

"bring it on!"

With tears welling in her eyes, Yin Liuli raised the peach wood sword in her hand high and poured the gathered true energy into it.

"Snap!"

A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket struck straight down from the black clouds.

A dazzling white light enveloped the entire world.

With a deafening roar, the peach wood sword in Yin Liuli's hand was shattered into pieces by lightning.

Her vision went blank, her ears were filled with nothingness, and she felt her body become very light, like a feather.

Suddenly, my hand felt heavy.

"Liuli...don't go! Don't go!"

The sound came from all directions, sometimes faint, sometimes clear, sometimes ethereal.

"Gu Jinyan..."

Yin Liuli vaguely saw herself flying into the sky.

Like a kite launched into the sky, that hand is the kite string, holding her tightly and pulling her down with all its might.

The kite string was very strong, but it still could barely hold her.

There seemed to be an invisible force in the sky, holding her body tightly and trying to take her away.

"Liuli! Don't go... please don't leave me!"

I haven't married you yet, and I haven't made you my Crown Princess!

"I haven't even asked you to bear my children yet. We still have so many things to do, Liuli. I won't let you die!"

Gu Jinyan's voice was crying, "God, please spare Liuli! You took my life, but don't take her away, please don't take her away..."

"Gu Jinyan!"

Yin Liuli's muddled mind suddenly cleared, and all she could see in front of her was a blur of chaos, except for the hand that was tightly holding hers.

She cried out anxiously, "I can't see you... Gu Jinyan, where are you? Ah!"

She screamed as the immense force behind her nearly ripped her hand from that hand.

"Liuli!"

Gu Jinyan's heart-wrenching voice rang out, "Whether it's heaven or earth, the mortal realm or the underworld, I'll go with you!"

"Gu Jinyan! What... what are you going to do?"

Yin Liuli was in a panic. In a pale, confused state, she cried out urgently, "I'm here, but I can't see you..."

Her face suddenly felt hot.

A liquid with a sweet, fishy smell touched her face, and her body suddenly sank heavily, as if she had fallen off a cliff.

"what……"

Yin Liuli suddenly opened her eyes. The intense feeling of weightlessness made her heart pound, and she instinctively opened her mouth to breathe heavily.

As her vision cleared and focused, she saw a chaotic scene.

Gu Jinyan held a sharp dagger in his hand, blood dripping from its tip, the tip pointed at his heart.

His handsome face was as pale as paper, his features contorted with rage and streaked with tears, and a shocking wound had appeared on his chest.

"Young Master Gu, calm down!"

The eldest brother grabbed his hand, his handsome face also pale, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Liuli has a faint pulse, she's not dead yet, there will be a way! There must be a way..."

"What are you all standing there for? Quickly, hold him down!"

His master clung tightly to his arm, his face covered in sweat from anxiety. "My dear disciple isn't dead yet! What's your rush? With me here, she won't die..."

The second senior brother was knocked off his feet by the heavenly lightning, but gritted his teeth and rolled over to get up. He shakily pinned Gu Jinyan down and started chattering away.

"Don't worry, don't worry... our junior sister will live to be a hundred years old; heavenly lightning can't kill her!"

"Absolutely! With Junior Sister's terrible temper, if Heaven really took her away, wouldn't she turn the Heavenly Court into chaos?"

"Young Master Gu, please don't die! Junior Sister likes you so much, she definitely wouldn't want you to die... Waaaaah..."

"Fifth brother, what time is it and you're still crying? Quickly hold his legs down!"

……

"Let me go! Let me go..."

The dagger in Gu Jinyan's hand was snatched away by the senior brother, and he was then held down on the ground by the others, who grabbed his arms and legs.

He looked up at the sky, large tears rolling down his cheeks, and suddenly burst into tears.

"God! You wanted Liuli's life, so why don't you take mine too!"

You brought her to my side, let her take root in my heart, why did you cruelly take her away again? Why!

The air suddenly became still.

Only Gu Jinyan's painful cries echoed throughout the entire city wall.

"At such a young age, why learn from others who commit suicide for love? If you were to die for my beloved disciple, how am I supposed to face your parents?"

The master sighed softly, a string of tears hanging on his thin face.

Chu Lingyun pursed her lips and said,

"Young Master Gu, Liuli still has a pulse. Believe me, I can definitely save her!"

"Yes, our eldest brother is a master of Taoist medicine. If he says he can save someone, he definitely can..."

"Young Master Gu, waaaaaah..."

"Fifth brother, aren't you annoying?"

……

Everyone was gathered around Gu Jinyan, and no one noticed that Yin Liuli had already woken up.

"Feed... Gu Jinyan, Master, I... I'm not dead yet..."

She was extremely weak, as limp as a noodle, and couldn't even move a finger.

With difficulty, it opened its mouth and let out a weak cry, like that of a newborn kitten, "Hey! Feed...help..."

"Master, his chest wound is quite deep. Let me stop the bleeding first."

Chu Lingyun checked it, then quickly took out his needle kit from his pocket, pulled out a silver needle, and inserted it into the acupoint.

"You child, how come you're even more stubborn than my good disciple?"

The master said with a look of lingering fear, "Luckily you were quick-witted and agile; you almost hurt a vital organ!"

Gu Jinyan lay on the ground as if dead, seemingly not hearing their words, only his bloodshot eyes staring desperately at the sky.

The moment Yin Liuli collapsed into his arms, he truly didn't want to live anymore.

Wasn't it said that his Seven Killings Fate could shield her from heavenly lightning?

Why wasn't it him who died?

Hearing Granny Jin's scream, his heart skipped a beat, and he rushed into the house without thinking.

Yin Liuli's phoenix coronet and wedding robes were scattered haphazardly on the ground. Only Granny Jin, pale-faced and trembling, remained in the room.

"Young Master, the eldest young lady...she's gone! She said...she said..."

"Where did she go?!"

Gu Jinyan grabbed Granny Jin's hand and shouted frantically, "What did she say?!"

"The young lady said... she went to find her master and fellow disciples. She said... if she doesn't come back, then... then..."

Granny Jin broke down, unable to even finish her sentence, "I'll...I'll marry you again in the next life..."

"Liuli!"

Gu Jinyan roared in anger, instantly understanding everything.

Her tribulation has arrived!

News quickly spread from the secret guards that the situation outside the city walls had suddenly changed; dense dark clouds were pressing down, and lightning and thunder were all around.

Many people saw several people dressed in Taoist robes standing on the high city wall...

Thunder and lightning roared overhead, creating a terrifying scene.

Gu Jinyan disregarded everything and ran wildly toward the city wall.
