As he was currently unable to control himself, he decided not to enter her dream to prevent himself from making mistakes.
Therefore, it seemed that he could only get to the mussel.
...
The mussel was chatting with Gu Xijiu about the future planning at Tianju Hall. It had already got what it wanted. It heard that the food at Tianju Hall tasted good, so it requested Gu Xijiu to bring it food.
It was its most exciting topic, but it fell asleep. Then, it found itself surrounded by cloud and mist. Surprisingly, it looked around and saw a person standing in front of it!
That person was wearing a purple robe and had loose black hair with a glimmering fox eye on his forehead.
It was Celestial Master Zuo who used to disguise himself as Si Chen and easily solved its Mirage Illusion. Though he exposed his true identity in front of it for just a while, it was deeply impressed!
It dared not provoke him because of his extreme proficiency in kungfu. Fortunately, he was with its master and thus, Di Fuyi would be rather good to it.
"You…you…" The mussel opened up its shells and wanted to show its affection by clamping the corner of his robe.
Di Fuyi reached out a finger and pressed on it, "What did you all experience after I went away? Come, let’s recall it." A mysterious seven-colored light emerged from his fingertip and spread on the mussel's shell wave after wave.
Therefore, with dizziness, the mussel fell into its memory, and it frighteningly found out that time rewound. Again, it met the two poisonous corpses together with its master and also met Long Siye. It was as if it was experiencing every incident again.
It was not a good memory and not something the mussel wanted to relive. Therefore, its shell was sweating profusely when it finally managed to wake out from its nightmare-like memory.
It was in shock and could not even remember the current date!
With a wriggle, it broke loose from the finger of Celestial Master Zuo and looked at him anxiously, "What…what have you just done to me?!"
The mussel was frightened! More strangely, it felt that it lost some of its vitality after it sobered up as it was gasping for breath. Meanwhile, Celestial Master Zuo seemed to be in deep thought as he did not pay attention to it.
The mussel felt insecure when it saw the cloudy, misty and blurry surroundings. Therefore, it did not want to stay and wanted to escape by digging the ground, but for an unknown reason, it almost hurt its shell.
"Why are you escaping? Are you afraid that I’ll stew and cook you?" Celestial Master Zuo was standing in front of it again and reached out his hand towards it.
The mussel shivered and retreated backward, "I… I’m not tasty. My meat is too hard and not tender at all…"
Di Fuyi took a step forward and asked with a gentle voice, "Are you afraid of me?"
The mussel retreated again, "No… I’m not afraid…"
Save me, master! It felt that Celestial Master Zuo wanted to stew it!
Di Fuyi flicked his wrist, and a scarlet fruit appeared on his palm, "Well done, this fruit is a reward for you."
The mussel immediately stopped retreating, and its eyes brightened!
The scarlet fruit! A type of spiritual fruit which could replenish spiritual power and more importantly, it tasted good!
The mussel instantly reached out its little hand to retrieve the scarlet fruit and put it into its mouth.
Yummy!
But it also commented, "Celestial Master Zuo, this fruit is only 90% ripened, and thus, we should have let it continue to ripen for another 10 days. Even if the medicinal effect is a bit weaker, its taste is the best and sweetest…"
Before it could finish commenting, the Celestial Master Zuo brushed over it with his sleeve.
...
Gu Xijiu thought that the mussel at her feet must have taken some sleeping medicine.
It was talking endlessly with her, but it actually fast asleep and was drooling the next minute. It was sleeping so soundly that she could not wake it up even though she kicked it. This made her wonder how it survived among the beasts at the fifth peak without being eaten by its predators while it was sleeping.
About an hour after the mussel slept, it suddenly woke up. It opened its shell to look around and inquired with a muddled expression, "Where am I?"
Gu Xijiu kicked it to wake it up, "Are you suffering from a sleep disorder?"
The mussel was finally awake, "Master… I had a dream just now."
Was it not normal to dream? Why would it make so much fuss?
Gu Xijiu took a glance at it, "What did you dream of?"
"I dreamt of… I dreamt that I went back into the Dark Forest…" The mussel was still in a state of shock, "And dreamt of being attacked by the two poisonous corpses!" It actually re-experienced the entire scene where the poisonous corpses attacked them!
Gu Xijiu pacified it by patting its shell. No wonder it was shivering when it was sleeping and even rolled once. All because it was having a nightmare.
It seemed that the attack of the two poisonous corpses had psychologically affected the mussel.
"Only that? Anything else?" Gu Xijiu inquired.
"And… And I dreamt of…" The mussel was recalling while opening its shell.
It remembered that it dreamt of something else, but it could no longer recall it regardless!
But it had another impressive dream, "Master, and I dreamt I ate a scarlet fruit that was really sweet!"
It was chewing as if it still recalled the delectable taste of the fruit.
Gu Xijiu, "…" She could not help to laugh and scolded, "What a diva!" She kicked it into the corner.
Nonetheless, both of them were wide awake after the incident.
The mussel could not help but teach her the knowledge it had about the best time to pluck a scarlet fruit. When it was talking, the voice of messenger Jiang was heard from outside, "Miss Gu, we’re arriving at Tianju Hall."
So fast?
Gu Xijiu lifted up the curtain and looked downwards.
The sky outside had turned light green, and through the first ray of the rising sun, she could vaguely see a dark and dense mass of houses surrounded by the mountain range below.
The area the houses occupied was very large. So large that one could not see the entire area from the ground level. Above the houses, there was a faint light surrounding them, and a rainbow was seen cutting across the sky. Looking at the sky, it looked like the Jade Pool of Asgard.
Gu Xijiu knew that it was the most mysterious Tianju Hall!
A place which gathered geniuses and prodigies from all over the world. A place where the five heavenly gift disciples used to study at and the recent sixth disciple, Yun Qingluo, had just entered a few days ago…
...
Meanwhile, at the Fucang Palace, Celestial Master Zuo, or Di Fuyi, was also wide awake throughout the night. On his table, there was some information which his followers had just sent.
Both Rong Yan and Gu Tianqing were indeed being decapitated, but as expected, their bodies were not found in the coffins.
Their bodies were stolen on the same night they were beheaded. They were stolen without anyone’s noticing that even the guards and their families knew nothing too.
The people of Fucang Palace managed to find out that the two bodies were moved to an abandoned house before they completely disappeared.
Even Mu Yun who was good at tracking and had thoroughly searched the house could only identify the faint smell of the Rong Yan and Gu Tianqing bodies, which were definitely in the house. Nothing else.
