Chapter 325 Finally, they meet!

Ryūya's voice was very soft, carrying a hint of a barely perceptible request.

He wasn't surprised by Liuli's performance.

Although there was an element of being forced into it,
After all, he failed to fulfill the responsibilities of a qualified clan leader.
The responsibility of a good father!

Gu Xing raised his head and looked at the man who was a head taller than him.

His eyes, like glass, were amber in color.

However, compared to Liuli's innocence, Liuye's face was etched with stories and full of vicissitudes.

Gu Xing did not answer immediately.

Avoiding him was Liuli's own choice. Even if Liuli's father were standing in front of him now, he would not force Liuli to do anything.

However, seeing the hint of pleading in Liu Ye's eyes, Gu Xing's heart softened.

Whether or not to see you, and how to see you, is Liuli's own choice.

After saying this, he sank his consciousness into the Beast Taming Space.

Inside the space, Liuli seemed somewhat downcast.

She sat with her knees drawn up to her chest under the Tree of Life, burying her face deeply between her knees, her shoulders rising and falling slightly.

The pure energy around her seemed to affect her emotions, making her somewhat somber.

"Liuli." Gu Xing's voice softly echoed in her mind.

Liuli suddenly looked up, her amber eyes still glistening with moisture. She quickly wiped her eyes, trying to regain her usual cool demeanor.

"Master? How is it outside? Did Lani... win?"

"Everything is resolved."

"That's good!"

Liuli nodded and buried her face in her knees again.

Gu Xing sensed that the little girl was extremely agitated.

Gu Xing's consciousness slowly coalesced, then he reached out and rubbed Liu Li's head.

He knew that glass was not that fragile.

The reason for choosing to avoid seeing Ryuya was simply because Ryuya's appearance was too sudden.

Liuli, who was used to facing things alone, found it difficult to adapt to this change for a while.

But as the owner of the glass, he had to play his role at this time.

"Liuli! You really don't plan to meet her?"

Liuli paused for a moment, then seemed to realize something, her pupils contracted slightly, revealing a hint of panic and resistance.

She instinctively folded her wings together, wrapping herself up slightly.

Is it absolutely necessary to meet?

"It's up to you. If you're unwilling, I'll relay your message to him."

Liuli's fingers unconsciously clenched the hem of her skirt, her knuckles turning slightly white.

She herself knew in her heart that it was completely impossible for her to disappear.

Although she harbored some resentment towards Ryuya, ...
She also understood that Ryūya must have his own reasons for his predicament.

She can't be so selfish!
Thinking of this, Liuli took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Seeing this, Gu Xing understood that the girl had made up her mind.

So he stretched out his hand and slowly spoke:
"Let's go, I'll go with you!"

Liuli looked at Gu Xing's hand, then looked up into his encouraging eyes, took a deep breath, and finally slowly placed her hand in his palm.

With a flash of light, the two figures disappeared from the Beast Taming Space.

On the Holy City Square, everyone held their breath.

All the angels' eyes were focused on Ryuya. Just moments before, Ryuya had been domineering and arrogant, surveying the entire arena, but after suppressing two ninth-tier totem angels…
Approaching a creature they had never seen before, they made a request in a somewhat humble manner.

"Who exactly is this person? Why is Lord Ryūya treating him like this?!"

"Exactly! Lord Ryūya doesn't treat anyone like this!"

"And where did Lady Ruri go? Why wasn't she here just now!"

Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, ripples appeared in the space around Gu Xing, and a slender figure quietly emerged.

The ten wings of the glass were slightly folded, making it even more radiant than the clouds in the sky.

Liuli lowered her head, her long silver hair falling down and partially obscuring her profile.

"Lady Ruri has appeared again!"

"It seems that Lady Liuli is related to that creature whose identity is unknown!"

Low gasps of surprise spread like a tide.

But Ryuya remained oblivious to everything around him.

At that moment, his entire world consisted only of that girl with her head down, seemingly afraid to look at him.

He unconsciously took a step forward, but stopped abruptly just before getting close, as if afraid of disturbing the girl.

His lips moved, a thousand words stuck in his throat, ultimately condensing into a trembling, almost broken cry:

“Liuli…my…daughter…”

The call was extremely faint, yet it struck the glass like a bolt of lightning.

She suddenly raised her head, her gaze meeting Liu Ye's equally moist golden eyes.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

Ryūya clearly saw the complex emotions in her daughter's eyes—

There was unfamiliarity, grievance, and resentment born from years of longing, but deeper still, there was an unbreakable bond brought about by the resonance of blood ties with him.

He saw her slightly trembling lips, her tightly clenched hands, and her stubbornness that mirrored his own—a stubbornness that habitually concealed her vulnerability.

Liuli looked at the man before her. He was different from the vague, warm, and powerful image of her father in her memory.

The man before me was even more imposing, his brows etched with the marks of time and weariness, and his body still carried the lingering smell of battlefield smoke and a trace of blood.

But those eyes, those golden eyes that were gazing intently at her, held the same emotion as the sense of security she had felt deep within her memory.
It was even more intense, filled with an unvarnished pain and guilt she had never seen before.

"you……"

Liuli's voice was very soft:
"Where did you go?"

These words were like a key, instantly unlocking the floodgates of emotions that had been building up in Liu Ye's heart.

Hot tears finally streamed uncontrollably from the eyes of this steely war angel, streaking down his resolute face.

He didn't try to wipe it, but just stared intently at the glass, his voice hoarse and heavy:
"I'm sorry... Liuli, I'm so sorry... It's my fault... It's my fault for not protecting you all... I made you suffer so much all by yourself..."

Although everything was done out of necessity,
He did not make any excuses to escape.

Instead, they readily admitted their mistakes.

Hearing the choked apology and seeing the unexpected tears on Liu Ye's face, Liu Li's protective, cold shell suddenly shattered.

She didn't say much, but gently stepped forward and hugged Liu Ye.

She didn't know how to express her emotions at this moment, so she silently expressed her feelings through her actions.

This scene instantly stunned Ryuya.

Then, he stretched out his arms and carefully and very gently wrapped them around her trembling shoulders, pulling her into his embrace little by little.

When Ryuya finally held his long-lost daughter in his arms, he felt at peace.

"I'm sorry... I'm so sorry... Father will never leave you again... never again..."

He repeated it over and over in a low, hoarse voice.
