Venerated Venomous Consort

Gu Xijiu could not believe the chain of events that had occurred during her sleep. She thought about the sequence of the events from the beginning until the very end. She still could not seem to grasp the significance of Di Fuyi’s actions.

Years ago, Di Fuyi refused to let her return to her original body and made up excuses to get it off her mind. They even had a huge misunderstanding because of the argument, which ended up leading both of them into the Dark Forest. When Di Fuyi found her again, he did not explain further about any of it, saying that the decision was related to the heaven’s secret, so he was not allowed to tell her any of it. However, he did make it clear that the body was not reserved for Lan Jingke. She believed him.

If that was true, what about everything that’s happening now? Did he preserve the body all for today? Was it for her to have a great retreat?

The mermaid’s palace was indeed a great location to preserve the body. The place could even aid the body’s advancement to higher powers. It seemed to her that Di Fuyi was only trying to make up excuses to persuade the siblings and help him preserve the body. However, if that was the case, why did she possess the memory of Lan Jingke?

Di Fuyi once told her that Lan Jingke’s soul had been completely torn apart and vanished without leaving any traces. On the contrary, Lan Yaoguang told her that it was Di Fuyi who rechanneled Lan Jingke’s broken soul into the body. What was it about the broken soul, then?

Did Di Fuyi want Gu Xijiu to have her body back? Or was he only trying to resurrect Lan Jingke? Confused, she kept rubbing her temples. Under the circumstances, she chose not to make any assumption about Di Fuyi. She had to see him personally to find out what he was truly up to.

She always matched her actions to her thoughts. Without wasting any time, she took a deep breath and teleported. In a swift moment, she disappeared.

When Lan Yaoguang was back again, he realized that his sister, who had just come back to life, was gone. Utterly surprised, he quickly sent out his men to search for her.

…

When Gu Xijiu first came to the Blue Hill continent, she needed a kind of special boat to travel into the deep sea. Her power was not good enough to travel on her own.

Now that her spiritual power was already at level ten, it was no longer a difficult task for her to leave the deep sea, for she knew exactly how to pave a way through the water.

An hour later, she was back on the surface. Even though she was back on land, it was not easy to get in touch with Di Fuyi, as his whereabouts had always been a mystery. Luckily, it was not difficult to get in touch with others.

Gu Xijiu used to keep all of her important things in her storage bag. The directed audio spell was in there as well. The storage bag was secured within the Firmament Stone. The Firmament Stone was now on her wrist again at last.

The Firmament Stone became active again and was so excited that they immediately had a quick catch-up.

It first addressed her as its master and waited for her response. When she answered, it started to blabber on and on. The entire conversation flashed before her eyes very quickly.

Gu Xijiu saw it flickering on her wrist and felt contented. However, Di Fuyi sealed off the Firmament Stone’s function most of the time, so it had no idea how Gu Xijiu returned to her body.

It did not even know that Di Fuyi had brought her to the crystal palace. Apparently, Di Fuyi would always turn off the Firmament Stone’s function every time they went out together.

After some time, Gu Xijiu still could not find out the crucial information that she was hoping for and was a little disappointed. However, she was still very happy that they were finally able to reconnect again.

While she continued to listen to the Firmament Stone’s neverending complaints about how it had not been able to get in touch with her, she quickly reached out into her storage bag to look for the directed audio spell and contacted Mu Feng.

Coincidentally, Mu Feng was assisting Di Fuyi at that very moment. Upon receiving her call, he could not hide his surprise. “Miss Gu?”
