Due to the poison and exhaustion in his body, this time Han Xiao fainted for an entire day and night before waking up. When he opened his eyes once again, it was already the night of the second day.

Feeling the movement beside her, Gu Xuan'er opened her hazy eyes. When she saw that Han Xiao had woken up, she let out a clear sigh of relief.

"Xiao, you've finally woken up. You've been unconscious for a day and a night." Gu Xuan'er said.

"One day and one night. It's still not too long yet. Xuan'er, come back this time." Han Xiao asked.

"Uncle Cheng, please give me one month. One month from now, I will have to follow Uncle Cheng back to the clan." Gu Xuan'er spoke in a gloomy tone.

Hearing Gu Xuan'er say that he would only be able to stay another month, Han Xiao's heart was very disappointed, but he had no other choice.

"At least you can stay with me for another month." Han Xiao said with a faint smile.

"Yeah, there's still at least a month left." Gu Xuan'er also said with a faint smile.

Seeing Gu Xuan'er's smile, Han Xiao extended his hand and pulled Gu Xuan'er into his embrace. After a moment of hesitation, he slowly said: "Xuan'er, actually there are some things that I think it's time to tell you."

Xiao, there are some things I want to tell you, during this period of time, I have thought about it for a long time, and have understood many things. Xiao, although I do not know what happened to you, or what things you hid from me, they are all things of the past. I do not mind, I only care about the present and the future, and you and I only have the present and the future. Gu Xuan'er lightly leaned her head against Han Xiao's chest and said in a soft voice.

She had indeed thought a lot during this period of time and felt that she should not have minded Han Xiao's past. After all, that was in the past, as long as they were fine, everything else was not important.

Hearing Gu Xuan'er say this, Han Xiao's heart warmed. Gently kissing Gu Xuan'er's forehead, he said: "Thank you, Xuan'er. But I still want to say it, and I also don't want to hide anything from you."

After saying that, Han Xiao told Gu Xuan'er everything about his past life, and after that, Han Xiao felt his heart lighten. Although he was worried that Gu Xuan'er wouldn't believe what he had said, or that he might be worried about his life in the prison, in his heart, he only wanted to tell Gu Xuan'er everything about himself, so that she could understand the real him.

Unknowingly, the sky had already begun to brighten, but Gu Xuan'er was still immersed in Han Xiao's story and did not speak for a long time.

Sensing Gu Xuan'er's silence, Han Xiao also stopped speaking. If Gu Xuan'er was unable to accept what he had just said, then no matter how much he said, it would be useless.

"Xiao, I'm sorry, I didn't think that you would encounter that in the past." She could clearly feel that Han Xiao was talking about Wang Yang's betrayal and the incident in the prison. Although he had been reborn for so many years, those things had always been like a nightmare that kept him at bay, preventing him from breaking free.

"It's okay. It's already passed just as you said. We just have to care about the present and the future." Han Xiao said with a faint smile.

Seeing Han Xiao's smile, Gu Xuan'er's eyes became moist. She lightly moved forward to kiss Han Xiao, as if she was comforting Han Xiao's heart, and even more so to express her feelings.

"Xuan'er, it's very dangerous to be so passionate towards men in the morning." Han Xiao hugged Gu Xuan'er's waist and said with a light smile.

"Xiao." Hearing Han Xiao's teasing, Gu Xuan'er's face turned red and she immediately pushed Han Xiao aside, starting to clean up.

Seeing Gu Xuan'er like this, Han Xiao did not continue teasing Gu Xuan'er. After packing up for a while, he left with Gu Xuan'er.

Walking out of the academy, Han Xiao and Gu Xuan'er went to the small cafeteria for breakfast before they took a walk around the academy grounds. When they thought that the second round of the arena battle would be held today, Han Xiao brought Gu Xuan'er with him to the martial arts arena.

As soon as he arrived at the martial arena, Han Xiao saw that there were already many people waiting there. Xi Yun and Xiao Ke'er hadn't come yet and had been waiting for Xi Yun and Xiao Ke'er for a while, when they saw Han Xiao and Gu Xuan'er, they directly walked over.

"Han Xiao, it seems like you are fine?" Xi Yun asked with a smile.

"My vitality is equal to that of Xiao Qiang, so it's alright. Right, which of you two will be competing this morning?" Han Xiao asked.

"I will compete in the morning. Sigh, I wonder how strong I am now." Xiao Ke Er sighed as she spoke.

"You can take a rest for the fifth match. You should watch Yu Ling's fight tonight." Xi Yun lightly said.

"Ye Yuling, what's wrong again?" Han Xiao asked.

"Today's first match was between Ye Yuling and Qiu Changhe. It's very difficult to meet them twice in the arena battle." Xi Yun said.

Hearing Xi Yun's words, Han Xiao's eyes flashed with interest. He raised his head and saw that Qiu Changhe had arrived. After waiting for a while, Ye Yuling also came. However, a trace of disgust flashed across her eyes when she saw Qiu Changhe.

When the sun was high in the sky, Jiang Zhao, who had presided over the competition, arrived. Seeing both Qiu Changhe and Ye Yuling, he said, "The first match will be between Ye Yuling and Qiu Changhe. Let the match begin."

As soon as Jiang Zhao finished his words, Qiu ZhangHe and Ye Yuling jumped onto the stage and watched as their opponent, Qiu Zhanghe, threw out twelve silver lotuses.

Ye Yuling, who had seen Qiu Changhe suffer the same fate as last time, had a cold look in her eyes. She leaped into the air to avoid the silver lotuses, but strangely, the silver lotuses stopped for a moment as if they had eyes.

"Clank, clank, clank." The silver lotuses caught up to Ye Yuling once again, brandishing their long swords and sending all the silver lotuses flying.

"Explode!" At that moment, Qiu Changhe let out a soft shout. Ye Yuling was startled when she heard Qiu Changhe's voice. Just as she was about to dodge out of the way, she saw the lotus flowers suddenly explode in midair.

"Clank, clank." Seeing the suddenly multiplied flower petals, Ye Yuling didn't dare to relax at all. She brandished her sword and nimbly dodged each and every flower petal at the same time.

"Clang!" One lotus petal after another landed on Ye Yuling's wrist. The pain made her subconsciously loosen her grip, and the blue sword fell to the ground.

"Trail of Mist." Qiu Changhe shouted softly. Mist gushed out from his body, quickly enveloping the entire arena in a white mist. Ye Yuling could only feel her vision blurring as she tried to search for Qiu Changhe, but she could not find him.

Suddenly, Ye Yuling felt her body being pulled into an embrace. A warm breath entered her ears. She turned her hand towards that person, only to hit him in the air.

"Lunar Shadow." Ye Yuling gave a loud shout, and moonlight power surged out from her body. Behind her, the faint outline of a moon could be seen. The fog surrounding her body started to dissipate under the moonlight, but after the fog dissipated, hundreds of silver petals shot out.

"It's actually the Soul of the Moon. There really are quite a few talented people in the Abyss Level Academy." A trace of astonishment flashed across Gu Xuan'er's eyes when she saw Ye Yuling's Moon Soul.

"Unfortunately, it seems like Ye Yuling is going to lose." Han Xiao shook his head and said.

"Indeed, from the looks of it, Qiu Changhe must have lost on purpose last time." Xi Yun lightly said.

At this moment, Ye Yuling might have realized this as well, and her face immediately turned unsightly. She drew back her sword, dodging the silver petals as she searched for traces of Qiu Changhe in the white fog.

After searching for a long time, she still couldn't find any traces of Qiu Changhe. On the contrary, she was injured by the silver petals. Ye Yuling coldly waved her sword and shouted, "Lunar Glow Sword Art 5th." Before Ye Yuling could finish her sentence, she felt her neck being strangled by something. The suffocating pain made her frown. She reached out her hand to touch the rope and felt pain in her hand. She looked down and saw numerous needle marks on her hand.

"Ah!" Feeling the increased pulling force, Ye Yuling moaned in pain. Before she could even burn the rope, she felt a huge force pulling her away.

"Bam." Ye Yuling was thrown off the stage, and she slowly stood up from the ground. A trace of killing intent flashed across her eyes as she touched Lai Hen, who was on her neck.

"Yu Ling, I won this round." After the white mist dispersed, Qiu Changhe slowly walked to the edge of the arena and said to Ye Yuling.

After hearing what Qiu Changhe said, Ye Yuling's pupils shrunk as the killing intent in her eyes became even more intense.
