As there was no exit in the cave, it was entirely pitch-black.
Though Gu Xijiu had very good eyesight, she can only make out a rough outline of Di Fuyi, and he was hugging her!
"Why…" As Gu Xijiu opened her mouth, his finger was already pressing against her mouth, obviously wanting her to keep quiet.
A series of questions flashed through her mind, as this Celestial Master Zuo was very strong - who would he afraid of? Who was he escaping from?
He breathing was light but as his nose was too close to her ear, Gu Xijiu could still feel the warmth of his breath.
Gu Xijiu felt uncomfortable as he kept hugging her. She struggled and her hint was obvious – let go of me!
"Xijiu, you wanted to repay my kindness just now?" Di Fuyi almost looked like he was talking while biting at her ear.
Gu Xijiu's body was slightly tensed as she nodded her head.
In such a dark world, if a male and a female were hugging in such a tight embrace, as his magnetic voice chimed into her ears, she felt that her sensitive ear had burned up, as if it was smeared with hot sauce.
What request would he ask for now?
"From now on, please protect me for an hour while I meditate. If anyone is found here at this hour, it's your responsibility to get me out of here by teleportation." Di Fuyi stated clearly.
Gu Xijiu heaved a sigh of relief and nodded her head again!
She definitely could fulfil this request of his.
Di Fuyi pressed a finger on her lip, "My dear, don’t dump me again, as you’ve promised me this time!"
Gu Xijiu shuddered and looked at him coldly with her eyes clearly declaring ‘why are you still holding me, do you want me to stab you to let me go?’
Di Fuyi smiled and finally released her. Then, he took out a jade-colored futon to sit on and started meditating.
The jade-colored futon was glimmering and illuminated Di Fuyi's figure.
Gu Xijiu also felt for a rock to sit down on and she had a brainwave while seeing him meditating!
The meditating method of Di Fuyi was similar to that statue she saw at the cave!
It was the hand gestures which were slightly different and the angle of his cross-legged had differed too.
But the manner of him closing his eyes to meditate almost made her thought that the jade statue had resurrected…
Gu Xijiu had been listening carefully to the movement of the surroundings.
Though this karst cave was dark, there were no monsters appearing nor any strange things occurring. Therefore, she was rather relieved.
Again, she slightly felt the spirit power, which was moving slowly in her body to nourish her veins.
"Little Cang, what’s the level of my spirit power now?" Gu Xijiu knew nothing much about the levels of spirit power on this land. Furthermore, as she did not possess the spirit power previously, she could not determine the level of her spirit power now.
"Level two." The Firmament Stone cut to the chase.
It was not high. That bastard Count Le Hua, Rong Yi, who she stabbed to death, actually had a level three spirit power!
"So low?" Gu Xijiu was disappointed. She thought her potential had been fully achieved.
"It will get higher if you practice diligently…" The Firmament Stone comforted her.
"I thought my useless body would have an extremely high spirit power the moment I can practice it," said Gu Xijiu subconsciously, turning the Firmament Stone.
The Firmament Stone, "…"
"Master…" The Firmament Stone faltered.
"Say it out, don’t stammer!"
"Master, your body was actually very special, and a bit strange…" After all, it had been on her body all the time, it could somehow feel all the changes.
"Which part is considered strange to you?"
"Which part is strange?"
"Your body doesn’t look like it was born useless, but instead, seems to be sealed by someone with a special technique." The Firmament Stone said, uncertain.
Gu Xijiu was so surprised that she frowned, "Sealed by a special technique?"
"Yes, it looks like it’s being sealed. And you can now recover a little, which should also mean that the seal could have a small hole in it now. If you can open up the whole seal, you could be considered a genius of spirit power, with the ability to kill anything in just a second." The Firmament Stone drew her a wonderful footprint.
Gu Xijiu frowned, "It’s odd. The original owner of this body was low in status and was weak. She was also a daughter of a general, who would plot to seal her spirit power? Could that be the people in the mansion of the general? Leng Xiangyu? Gu Tianchao?"
"Master, the technique used to seal your body is extremely odd and advanced. Not to mention those people at the general's mansion, even the crown prince, Rong Jialuo, is unable to perform it too."
"Then who could it be?"
"I can’t guess." Even the Firmament Stone was clueless.
Gu Xijiu suddenly had a thought, "Could it be Celestial Master Zuo?!" After all, it was he who broke the seal. The seal still requires the doer to undo it…
"It couldn’t be him. Why would he make things difficult for a little girl?"
Gu Xijiu recalled that Di Fuyi used to say that he knew the madam of the general, and she suddenly had a brainwave!
Perhaps parts of what Di Fuyi said were true!
For example, Luo Xinglan used to bring her kid along to beg him…
From the news she received via a furtive probe, she knew that the mother of the original owner of this body, Luo Xinglan, was a woman who acted and talked like a man. Before marriage, she was a remarkable and smart woman who traveled the world. Only after she was married to Gu Xietian, she started being a housewife. Therefore, it did not come as a surprise for her to know Celestial Master Zuo at all.
However, because of his high status, Luo Xinglan would probably not have tried her best to beg for Celestial Master Zuo’s help if her child did not suffer from an extremely complicated issue…
What had happened to this kid at the time?
Luo Xinglan should not be asking Celestial Master Zuo perform face reading for her kid for no good reason!
Currently, Di Fuyi should be the only person who knows the truth, but if he did not want to say it, she could not coerce him for the truth.
She rubbed the spot between her eyebrows. Well, just live and let live. After all, some truth should not be disclosed when the time was not right. By now, as she had already recovered some of her spirit power, she could also practice some skills to improve it. Furthermore, her teleportation technique had improved by leaps and bounds too.
Just now, when she teleported carrying Di Fuyi, she practically managed to get in position so accurately that there was no single error deviated from what she expected. Previously, it was totally impossible!
Therefore, she felt she had a 50 percent chance to survive even when she was being thrown into the Dark Forest!
As long as she could walk out of the Dark Forest, she would regain her freedom. After all, no longer did the Celestial Master have any reasons to catch her, hence, he would not watch her so closely anymore.
As for Long Siye, his main target should be the Illusion Weed. Therefore, she could threaten him with the Illusion Weed at critical moments to force him to let go…
She was not able to defeat him yet, hence, she could not confront him directly for the time being. Furthermore, she no longer needed the Illusion Weed - it did not matter even if she had to destroy it or give to him.
When she was pondering what to do in the future, she suddenly sensed something and jumped!
Somebody was outside!
The cave where they were in had not a single exit. A wall of about two feet thick, which could insulate sound, was blocking the cave from the outside world. She was no longer who she used to be, but when she stayed calm and quiet, she could still hear the sound of movement outside.
