He also plopped down on the ground. "This is bad, really bad."
Though his words were fragmented, they still revealed a great deal of information.
Gu Jianlin thought to himself, so that's how it is. Everything now makes sense.
No wonder Lin Wanqiu could become a Cheater, and even survive.
It turns out it was thanks to the markers Lin Lan left behind to avoid those risks.
"Gu Jianlin, are you Old Gu's son?"
Lin Lan's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "I had originally thought that the first person to find me would be Old Gu, but I didn't expect it to be his son. Where is Old Gu? Where has he gone?"
Gu Jianlin was silent for a moment before calmly replying, "He's dead."
The tachi fell onto the ice.
Lin Lan froze. The cold wind swept his long hair, and his unshaven beard seemed to sway.
For a moment, he seemed to fall into despair again, a strong smell of alcohol swirling around him. His tone carried an unmistakable sorrow and sadness: "I see. I knew it. He was such a trustworthy person; it was impossible for him to abandon his comrades. I waited for him for so long, thinking he had left me behind. I didn't expect that he had already passed away."
He scratched his head, let out a bitter laugh, and murmured, "Looking at it this way, it would've been better if he'd just abandoned me. That way, I could resent him instead of feeling so heartbroken for him."
Gu Jianlin sized up the man, profiling his Transcendent form.
"Welcome to the Sea of Eternal Life. Brace yourself for despair alongside me from now on."
Lin Lan let out a grim laugh. "You really shouldn't have come here. Now look at this—you've gone and gotten involved. Originally, it would've only been my death to contend with, but now I'll have to die with the guilt of dragging you down as well. What kind of mess is this, huh?"

Amid the roaring snowstorm, Tang Ling let out a cute sneeze.
She was wearing sunglasses, a fluffy fur hat, a thick beige mink coat, and fur-lined knee-high boots trudging through the soft snow, battling against the piercing wind.
A massive travel bag trailed behind her, leaving behind a long drag mark in the snow.
The trail was soon covered by falling snow.
"Which way should I go next?"
She downed a bottle of anti-cold secret medicine, then pulled out a makeup mirror from her pocket and asked softly.
The mirror reflected an enchanting young maiden, her Evolver aura evident. She chuckled lightly and said, "Head toward your five o'clock direction. You'll need to walk at least another five kilometers to pinpoint the next node. My foreknowledge can only offer a general idea of the location; as for the specific person's whereabouts, I can't guarantee that."
Tang Ling nodded faintly. "Is the person still alive?"
The maiden in the mirror replied, "Alive."
"That's good, thank you."
Tang Ling continued trudging through the snow with great effort.
"Even someone as proud as you can say 'thank you'?"
The maiden in the mirror teased, "You sealed me away for so long, and now you've come to appreciate my usefulness? This is the foreknowledge ability of the Bai Ze Clan. Once you become that Supreme's Inheritor, you'll know what it means to comprehend all things!"
Tang Ling responded coolly, "At that point, would I still be myself?"
The maiden in the mirror let out a cold snort. "You'd better be cautious. I've foreseen immense danger; finding that boy is only the beginning. This time, there's a high possibility the two of you will perish together."
Tang Ling narrowed her striking eyes. "What's out here?"
The maiden in the mirror fell silent for a second. "The aura of Candle Dragon Venerable."
