Chapter 976: Unsettled Waters
"Gui Lan, don't scare dad!"
Ye He, who ran back all the way, kicked the door open with one kick. The old father didn't care about controlling his own strength now, and his heart was all focused on his daughter.
Her spiritual energy in her body was fine, but now Ye Guilan's face was pale and her breathing was weak. There were no obvious scars on her body, as if she was an empty shell that had been drained.
Ye He was horrified when he saw it. He quickly wanted to penetrate Ye Guilan's body with his spiritual energy to find out what was going on, but Ye Guilan, who was aware of it, pushed him back gently.
"Dad, I'm fine."
The voice was extremely weak, as if it was just recovering from a serious illness, and the volume was pitifully low.
"I'm just, very tired."
Ye Guilan opened his mouth and said only a few words, looking as if he was too tired to speak anymore.
She was so pressed that she felt like she was going to turn into a piece of cake. The last moment was like a huge stone hitting her heavenly spirit cover, and she fainted immediately.
When she woke up again, her whole body was experiencing symptoms of discomfort due to the rapid feedback of spiritual energy. She knew that this was only temporary.
The spiritual energy accumulated in the beast-marked spiritual seed has reached the point where she can laugh just thinking about it. No matter what she does, it is all worth it.
To be honest, there is nothing she wants to do now except sleep.
But the old father was frightened. When he saw his daughter drowsy and about to close her eyes, he slapped her hard.
"Gui Lan, wake up!"
There was a cry in Ye He's voice. The old father's eyes were red and he shook Ye Guilan slightly, "Don't sleep, listen to dad, don't sleep!"
Ye Guilan, who was about to fall asleep, was shaken back by the slap and the force. She opened her eyes slightly in a daze, and could not see clearly what her father's expression was.
"Gui Lan! Gui Lan!"
Ye He panicked and was reluctant to hit his daughter any more, so he could only scream like this, but Ye Guilan was really too sleepy and his eyes were about to close again.
Snap!
The crisp slap came again, and Ye Guilan was woken up again. She opened her eyelids with difficulty and saw Ye He's expression at this moment.
He was about to cry, no, he was already crying.
Tears welled up in his eyes, and only four words were written on that handsome face: "Don't die."
"Dad...I..."
Ye Guilan wanted to say to comfort him, I'm fine, I'm really fine, dad, trust me, don't hit me again.
However, due to his extremely weak body and the rapid onset of sleepiness, Ye Guilan could only speak two words and then lost his voice.
Ye He's body froze and his hands were frighteningly cold.
He stared blankly at his daughter who closed her eyes in his arms, and his heart stopped following her closed eyes.
Can't die, his daughter can't die, can't die again!
Ye He frantically tried to probe his spiritual energy into Ye Guilan's body, but found that he couldn't get in at all, couldn't get in!
His daughter's body seemed to have an extra layer of copper and iron walls that even he, the phantom god, could not break through.
This state is very much like her being fished out of the water.
Her cold and weak body was soaked to the skin, her face was pale, and she was lying in his arms with her eyes closed.
No matter what he did, he couldn't get her to open her eyes.
Ye He knelt on the ground and just hugged Ye Guilan, big tears silently flowing from his eyes.
Is this a punishment for him? Is this a punishment for him running away from home and refusing to take up his responsibilities? He fell in love so much that he died young, and now this daughter will also be taken away!
Why didn't retribution come to him, why did he take away his daughter, why——!
The old father, who was completely panicked after being frightened, had long forgotten that Ye Guilan's aura still existed in his body.
Ye He, who was deeply immersed in his own emotions, hugged his daughter tightly in his arms. When he raised his head again, his eyes were completely red and filled with murderous intent!
The world treats him like this, and he treats the world like this!
call--!
The small snoring sound struck the old father's ears like lightning, as if a stop button was pressed, and all startup programs were quickly extinguished and returned to their original state.
Whoosh——!
A clearer snoring came, and Ye He was stunned. Only then did he realize that the coldness he felt just now was all his own.
The daughter in my arms is warm, and she is still...alive.
The old father stood up, staggering and almost losing his balance. He carefully placed Ye Guilan on the bed. Listening to her snoring, his knees softened and he sat directly on the ground.
Ye He lowered his head, covered his face with his hands, and did not lift it up for a long time.
When Ye Guilan opened his eyes again, he felt like a newborn bird that had opened the shell that trapped him.
There was an inexplicable sense of weight clinging to her body, as if something had filled part of it, while part of it was still empty.
She moved her body, turned over, and saw her father standing by the bed, his eyes staring at her unblinkingly.
"father!"
Ye Guilan was startled and immediately sat up from the bed. Ye He reached over with his big hand and held her hand in his palm, trying to get in and take a closer look.
This time, I was not rejected again.
Ye He's spiritual energy carefully circled Ye Guilan's body, bypassing her spiritual seed. Knowing that she was really safe, the old father finally breathed smoothly.
He took back his hand and said, "As long as it's okay."
Ye Guilan chuckled, "Dad, how long have I been sleeping?"
"Two months."
Ye He responded without getting up from the bed, his eyes still looking at her.
Ye Guilan groaned and prepared to get out of bed and walk around. Two months was really a long time. No wonder his father was worried like this. When he got out of bed, Ye Guilan saw that his father had been sitting on his knees.
There.
"Dad, get up quickly!"
She opened her mouth, but Ye He didn't get up. Ye Guilan couldn't help but frown. Could it be that... her father had been kneeling here for two months and never left?
Ye He was holding the window edge with his hands, obviously unable to stand up after sitting on his knees for a long time. Ye Guilan quickly reached out to support her old father, her nose was sore.
It scared him again, it was her fault.
"Dad, I'm fine, look!"
She helped Ye He stand up and said a few words that it was okay. Ye He nodded with a smile and touched her little head, "Dad saw it and knows you are okay."
Ye Guilan smiled like a little sun, dispersing the dark cloud that lingered in Ye He's heart.
"I still need a few things to resurrect the unreturnable spiritual seeds, and I need to find them here."
Ye He sat on the chair and rubbed his legs, "Do you want to go with dad?"
"Of course! Dad and I are together!"
Ye Guilan knelt down and helped him rub his legs with her little hands, "If dad doesn't let me, I will be very sad."
"Okay, let's go together."
Ye He felt something sweet in his heart when he heard this, "We're leaving immediately. I heard that the water area is not very peaceful. Something seems to have happened. I don't know if it has anything to do with the Black Soul Palace."
When Ye He said this, his tone couldn't help but become colder.
"Dad doesn't want to get involved in the Black Soul Palace. He just wants your mother to be resurrected as soon as possible so that our family of three can be reunited."
Ye Guilan hummed and didn't say much more. She couldn't win over the symbiotic community with just a few words as a little girl. Her father didn't have this intention, and she couldn't possibly have such influence.
Forget it, it’s important to resurrect the mother first, let’s talk about it later when we have a chance.
Ye Guilan rubbed her old father's legs and frowned as she thought about her father's words just now. Could it be that the unrest on the other side of the water area has something to do with the teleportation array in the water area? The Black Soul Palace...is taking action?
Within the waters, a figure shuttled back and forth, half-stepping into the aura of the illusory god realm, turning on full power, shocking the surroundings!
Along the way, any water tribe I met didn't even have the courage to get close. They started to flee when they found out that his aura was approaching.
The Xuanhui clan, people from the Xuanhui clan are here!
There is chaos in the waters. What does it mean when people from the Xuanhui clan come?
The Xingchen clan in the water area took action immediately. The arrival of the Xuanhui clan was probably what they had in mind, but they didn't expect that the little girl conveyed the message so quickly and could actually invite the Xuanhui clan to come to the water area.
But here, Yue Wuzheng, who was charging straight along, suddenly stopped. He looked around gloomily with his black eyes. The water tribe around him, big and small, began to run away in a panic.
Yue Wuzheng looked at the surrounding water environment and clenched his hands tightly.
He is lost.
