章 1339: The Truth (4)

Di Fuyi sighed. "That was only their perception. Why would I give your body to someone else? The mermaid family is one of the best places to safe keep the body. Not only will the place prevent the body from rotting, but it is also able to give the body an eternal life by enhancing its spiritual power while it is kept in hibernation mode."

Gu Xijiu remained silent.

She was startled for a moment. "Since you are not planning to give my body to the former empress, why won't you let me return to that body? You should know that I like being inside a real human body…"

Di Fuyi closed his eyes slightly. "It is a confidential matter. I am afraid that I am not at liberty to share it with you. However, I can guarantee you that the body will always be yours and no one else's. It's only a matter of time before you get your body back, but for now…"

Gu Xijiu was speechless. She never expected him to deny everything.
