Gu Qingyan awoke abruptly from her seclusion. Staring at Gu Chen, who lay in a coffin within the miniature realm, she realized—his heart was beating again.
For her, this was nothing short of an earth-shattering piece of good news, stirring her with unparalleled excitement.
"This is wonderful, Big Brother—I just knew you'd come back to life!"
The powerful rhythm of Gu Chen's restored heartbeat sent Gu Qingyan into a state of ecstatic joy, confirming the undeniable truth that her elder brother could return to the realm of the living.
Even Bi Yu and Emperor Xia, deep in their own secluded cultivation, were startled by the resonance of that heartbeat and instantly appeared at the scene.
"What is this?"
Both hesitated, glancing at the serene face of Gu Chen lying in the coffin, his white hair as radiant as snow. A faint tremor arose unbidden in their hearts.
