Di Fuyi chuckled, "Your ride is good enough. I will punish you if you come late."
Qian Yueran laughed, "Fortunately, I'm not late!"
Hua Wuyan also smiled sweetly, "I always put your task as first priority."
The three of them continued chit-chatting. The Emperor who was at the observation station too, came to greet them.
Suddenly, Gu Xijiu sighed.
"Why the sigh? Do you feel scared already?" The Firmament Stone asked.
Gu Xijiu said, "In novels or movies in my era, those clans with the name of Yinyang or Xihua are always the bad clans. Most of the overlords like to practice with devil spirits and they often exude a sexy and charming demeanor. Therefore, I also thought that the Overlord of Yinyang clan would look the same. However, only after meeting her today, I discovered that she is such a beautiful and elegant lady. I totally did not expect that at all!"
The Firmament Stone remained silent for a while before saying, "Master, are you not worried at all?" It had always thought that its master was somewhat weird.
"There is nothing for me to worry about. I am not a heaven's gift disciple, so the result will speak for itself. I will then be sent to the Dark Forest for a few days. Since I already know what the outcome would be, why should I be worried?" Gu Xijiu explained.
"Since you know that you are not a heaven's gift disciple, why would you want to take the test publicly? It is such a shame to be announced as a phony in front of the general public."
"I don’t think so." Gu Xijiu answered determinedly.
She did not want to have anything to do with the identity anymore, so there was nothing to be shameful about. She just wanted to achieve her end goal.
It was too troublesome to uphold this identity. She was entangled by Long Siye, chased by Di Fuyi, admired by the Emperor and was dragged into a marriage that she could not come out of…
When all these troubles came together, she could not practice freely. In that case, it would be better to completely lose this identity in its entirety. After the test, she would be sent to the Dark Forest and everyone would think that Gu Xijiu had perished in there.
Once she successfully got out from the Dark Forest, she would change her identity in another country. She also planned to find a quiet place to continue practicing her spiritual power and live the life she wanted.
She already had her future planned out, so she did not care about the little shame that she was going to receive now.
The Firmament Stone seemed to understand her plans. It paused and asked, "Can you let go of all the people here? Gu Xietian has been treating you well recently and you are proudly regarded as his daughter now. Di Fuyi has been good to you too and even wants to engage with you… Rong Jialuo also treats you differently. He has been keeping his eye on you ever since you appeared…"
"There is nothing I can’t let go of." Gu Xijiu answered firmly.
The Firmament Stone was stunned, "You're so cold-blooded!"
Maybe she was cold-blooded after all. When she reincarnated into this world, she swore that she would only live for herself and not for anyone else.
She just wanted to live freely this time around and not be restrained by any kind of relationship, which includes family and love.
"So, this is Miss Gu." A voice sounded in front of her.
Gu Xijiu looked up and saw the Overlord of Yinyang clan, Hua Wuyan
.
Hua Wuyan scanned her from head to toe, as though watching a new toy. Gu Xijiu calmly looked at her too.
