Venerated Venomous Consort

Gu Xijiu had overworked herself earlier; hence, she was not only hungry at the moment but exhausted instead. She needed a rest.

Di Fuyi was in a hurry; he had already gone with her body right after he told her to follow him.

…

Gu Xijiu finally understood why she always followed Di Fuyi. It seemed to be related to her body because she just followed wherever Di Fuyi went with it.

Di Fuyi did not bring her to a restaurant but a Celestial Master Gu Temple.

Since it was already so late at night, no one was praying there, but a young Taoist was guarding the incense. The incense was made for praying purposes, and the fragrance lingered in the temple.

Gu Xijiu realized she was not hungry anymore! Perhaps, the incense was now her food. After a while, she felt so much better.

Di Fuyi was sitting on a crossbeam with her body, and that location was the perfect spot for her to smell the incense…

“Xijiu, do you feel better now?” Di Fuyi whispered.

“Yes.” Gu Xijiu also felt that was the most comfortable spot. She was too tired earlier, and now she even felt sleepy. However, she did not dare to sleep because she was afraid that she could never wake up anymore…

She flew nearer to Di Fuyi. As she looked at the body in his embrace, she suddenly got jealous of the body…

Di Fuyi leaned against the pillar behind him. “Xijiu, let’s have a rest here.”

Although he said they should rest, he did not close his eyes, and his fingers were casting a spell.

Although the body in his embrace was an immortal body, it was easy to decompose without the protection of wizardry barrier. He was worried that he would block Gu Xijiu’s return to her body; hence, he removed the wizardry barrier and secretly maintained it with a spell so that it looked like a living body.

Certainly, Gu Xijiu saw the spell on his fingertips. She felt sad for him. Although she tried to go back to her body several times, it just did not work…

Di Fuyi had been sitting on the crossbeam for the entire night, but the body in his embrace did not even move.

The Firmament Stone was disappointed. “My Lord, I think it was something else picking up the prawn instead of my master. Otherwise, she could still talk to me even though she is only a soul.”

Gu Xijiu was disappointed too. She could not communicate!

Di Fuyi did not say anything. When the sun rose again, he got up and returned to the tavern with the body and then went to the next Celestial Master Gu Temple with the crystal carriage.

Crystals could gather energy; hence, Gu Xijiu did not feel hungry at all when she was in the carriage.

Again, she followed Di Fuyi around for another three days. She realized there were seven colors in the crystal carriage and every color looked clear. Also, they could gather different elements and energy. Now, she felt she was stronger, and she could slowly feel her hand…

Inside the carriage, there were a few crystal-made displays. She tried to take the smallest one and surprisingly, she managed to push it!

Di Fuyi has been paying attention to his surroundings; hence, he definitely saw the crystal move. He slightly closed his eyes.

Although he could not see her, he could feel her existence!

“Xijiu, I have no idea why you refuse to return to your body, but I know you’re here!” He smiled as he uttered gently.

Gu Xijiu has got the habit of spending time with him and looked at his face every day. However, what Mu Feng said about ‘not much time left’ was still a thorn in her heart…
