Bab 373: It Has Nothing To Do With Him

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Xijiu’s eyes darkened, "What if I’m not willing to?" What she hated the most was being told what to do.

No matter how many identities she had come up with, he could still see through her disguise almost immediately. If that were the case, she would rather stay in the Dark Forest.

She could stay for at least a year until she was 15 years old.

According to the promise that Di Fuyi had made with Luo Xinglan, it was stated that if she could not make it out of the Dark Forest before she turned 15, the engagement would not be taken into account.

Di Fuyi fixed his gaze on her, as he seemed to have read her thoughts. His gaze darkened, "Are you really reluctant to accept the engagement?"

Gu Xijiu buttoned her lips.

Di Fuyi took a moment of silence. He then sharpened his eyes at her and said with a smile, "Actually, it’ll do more good to you if you’re engaged to me, at least Long Siye won’t be tangled up with you anymore, isn’t it? Or is it – that you’re still hoping that he keeps holding on to you?"

"It has nothing to do with him!" answered Gu Xijiu, almost immediately.

She sounded eager as if worried that Di Fuyi might actually go and cause Long Siye trouble. Di Fuyi’s smile disappeared, "It’s best that it has nothing to do with him! It’s fate that both of you have not had the luck to be together, so you’d better stop thinking about him!" said Di Fuyi, noncommittally.

Gu Xijiu was speechless at that instant.

"Don’t worry! He’s yours! I’m not interested!" She said icily.

He caught in her words and stumbled a little, "He’s mine…" said Di Fuyi, repeating her words. He gnashed his teeth a little in a slight rage.

He blinked his eyes deliberately and peered at her. All of a sudden, he laughed, "Yes, he’s mine. Do remember what you’ve just said!" Said Di Fuyi in slow, measured tones.

Except for the part that he whispered in her ears, the rest of their conversation was conducted in their personal acoustical control, secretly. Only the two of them could hear what they said. The outsiders would have no clue at all.

It seemed like they were casting loving glances back and forth to each other as if Celestial Master Zuo was there to lift Gu Xijiu up just when she was about to stumble across her seat. Bashfully, she then seemed to fix her posture and sit upright. All of a sudden, Celestial Master Zuo appeared to hold her tenderly in his arms and whispered softly into her ears – this was all from an outsider's perspective.

The entire scenario had cast an immense impact. Apparently, the people were infuriated, as they were glowering at them in strong disapproval.

Was it still the same Celestial Master Zuo, who was known to not be fond of women? Was he still the same person who never allowed any woman to approach him in close proximity?

Gu Xietian did not know how to feel about all this.

To his surprise, the superior Celestial Master Zuo had gone to the length of becoming his son-in-law.

He was in doubt. Even if this was just a dream, it still seemed like a sheer absurdity to him.

Suddenly, there was a clear, crisp sound of the plate falling to the ground.

Everyone looked towards the direction of the sound. Then, they saw Yun Qingluo sitting there, with a tilting plate at the side of her feet. Her soup had spilled all over the place.

"Pardon me, it slipped out of my hand," she explained to everyone, apologetically.

"There’s no big deal, it’s just a plate," said the Emperor, as he commanded his servants to clean it up.

Yun Qingluo could not hold back her gaze towards Di Fuyi. He looked up and returned her gaze. It was only a glimpse, but enough to cause a stir in her heart. She lowered her head and held her fingers even more tightly beneath her sleeves.

Gu Xijiu turned her look towards her direction as well, but it was simply a quick glance and her attention only lasted for a brief moment.

Yun Qingluo possessed a specific power as if she had a third eye that could help her observe everything in her surroundings without actually looking around.

Even with her head lowered down, she could clearly feel Gu Xijiu’s glance at her. She held her fingers so tightly as though they were about to penetrate her flesh.

1

Was the Lord’s follower trying to display superiority with her glance?

It seemed like she had forgotten her worth, just because she had achieved the status that she was obviously not worthy of. It was unbelievable that she had the audacity to demonstrate her superiority and made a fool out of the Heaven's Gift disciple.

Bab 374: Lifting Her Up 1

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yun Qingluo grew up in a spotlight where everyone admired her. She seemed to have a gentle disposition at all times. In truth, she was indeed very arrogant. There was not anyone in Haoyue Kingdom who would disregard her preeminence. It was like a myriad of stars surrounding the moon no matter where she went.

Never in her life had she encountered such a bitter experience like this one. Certainly, she did not feel good about it.

Her decent upbringing had, however, taught her to behave in a proper manner even in times of rage. She did not let her temper show.

She actually wanted to leave, but she did not want to be part of him.

What she had was an honest misunderstanding. Gu Xijiu was just looking at her out of curiosity for the source of the noise. She could not care less about the situation, let alone the idea of exhibiting her superiority.

She was in the midst of a linguistic fight with Di Fuyi. She was so focused that she did not care about anyone else at all.

She tried to deal with Di Fuyi in a pleasant and composed manner, "How long are you going to use me as your excuse?" Since this was only a deal, it must come clearly with a price.

To her, it was nothing but a normal question. Instead, Di Fuyi lowered his gaze and looked at her with a faint smile, "Are you desperately trying to break away from me?"

"If you want to make me your cover-up, there has to be a duration at least, so do set a time limit," sighed Gu Xijiu.

Di Fuyi thereupon replied her with a time limit, "A hundred years."

She was in shock.

Gu Xijiu looked at him with her eyes wide open, as it felt almost like a joke to her.

Instead of a hundred years, he might as well reply with a thousand years.

How many years could she live?

In fact, the people in this world had a short lifespan in general. A hundred years was considered longevity.

There were only a few rare cases, like Di Fuyi, who had lived so long and had not grown old. Similarly, all of them had achieved a spiritual power of level nine.

In a world so big and populous, there were very few people who could attain such an achievement in their spiritual power. All of them were the cream of the crop, obviously, the best of the best.

The cultivation of spiritual power could be compared to the process of unlocking levels in a game. One could easily escalate through the first few levels. The process became increasingly more difficult and time-consuming as the levels went higher. Furthermore, devoting oneself completely to the practice did not always guarantee a good outcome.

For instance, for the cultivation of spiritual power from level six to level seven, one would have to spend twice the time taken for all the practice before reaching level six.

As for the cultivation from level seven to level eight, it would require a total amount of experience that was equivalent to five times the amount of practice before achieving level seven.

With regards to the achievement of level eight and level nine, the amount of effort required was already beyond comprehension.

In the whole wide world, only three Great Lords and two Celestial Masters had successfully attained the ultimate level nine – other practitioners were still slowly making it through the process. They would have died before they could make it through the long struggle.

Gu Xijiu did not think that she could attain her spiritual power at level nine within a few decades of practice. Presumably, her lifespan should be around a hundred and ten years.

Evidently, he sounded like he had planned to use her as an excuse for the rest of her life.

Since they had already made things clear in advance, she decided to go straight to the point, "Actually, I don’t think that you are the kind of person who cares about mundane gossips and the unfounded rumors that people speak of you. You have such an exalted rank in the society, so even if everyone knows that you like men, they would not dare talk about it in front of you. As a real man, you should be bold enough to do what you want and accept the consequences in return. Why should you hide behind others and conceal the truth?"

She said that he liked men.

How could she perceive such a wrong impression of him?

He gritted his teeth. With a smile, he said, "I’m sure you’re aware that I’m in pursuit of perfection in the things I do; no flaws are ever allowed. Long Siye is sensitive about his own reputation, so he must not let this dishonor be widespread. Sweetheart, we can only trouble you with such inconvenience. Furthermore, the Emperor has already put his mind to make you his daughter-in-law. You’re not the heaven's gift disciple and you can’t go against the Emperor’s will, so why not just marry me? Even the Emperor has no power to take away my wife from me. Marrying me will save you from a lot of trouble. You can even get along with Long Siye, as openly as day. Doesn’t this sound like a perfect plan that satisfies both of us?"
