"This is called the Golden Sore Medicine. The red one is to apply externally while the blue is for you take orally. No matter how serious an injury is, once you use it you will be able to move after an hour and fully recover after resting for a day."
"This is…?"
Long Siye brought her to his treasure storeroom and took out a few precious collections to show her. His medicines could heal, improve strength, increase defense, and so on. Long Siye was very generous and put all these things into a silver storage bag and handed it to Gu Xijiu.
However, Gu Xijiu did not accept it, "Overlord Long, I have told you before that I am not the person that you are looking for." She then turned away to leave the room.
Long Siye remained silent.
He slowly walked out and saw Gu Xijiu standing beside the railing. The wind had blown so intensely that her dress and hair fluttered in the breeze. She looked beautiful.
Long Siye had a thought in his mind. He wondered how he could have made a mistake. He was as familiar with her temperament as much as he was on his own. He might have made mistakes with other people, but not her!
Gu Xijiu always paraded many different appearances when she was out for missions, but she had consistently shown her true self in front of him.
Long Siye's eyes then drifted to her forehead. The birthmark seemed to be much lighter now. Once she grows up, she will be a pretty girl.
He carefully looked at her facial features. She looked about 70 to 80% similar to what she looked like in her previous life which was quite similar to Gu Xixi. However, her temperament was identical.
"Xijiu, what do you think of the scenery here? Does it look like the Guoliang Village that we went to last time?" Long Siye walked over and stood side by her side.
Gu Xijiu looked calm and replied, "Guoliang Village? That name sounds very rural. I would never expect Overlord Long to be one to visit these kinds of places."
Long Siye remained silent.
He sighed softly, "That place is isolated from the outside world. The residents there were honest. I told you I liked that place and could stay there after I retired. You said you would accompany me and practice martial arts on the hill. That night you were very excited and even drew out a blueprint of the courtyard that you liked."
Gu Xijiu did not speak and looked indifferent.
Long Siye looked around to see if her attention was diverted and then continued, "When I first came to the Tianwen Mountain, this was my favorite place, so I built this detached house. Does everything here look like the blueprint that you drew?"
Even if it looked alike, it did not change anything.
The buildings might be the same, but the people are different.
Gu Xijiu held on the railing and looked at the cloud below the mountain. The wind blew her hair up in front of Long Siye's face.
He was happy at that moment being next to his loved one who looked beautiful. Long Siye could no longer resist. He reached out to hold her hand on the railing, "Xijiu…"
Gu Xijiu reacted very quickly. She withdrew her hand and stepped backward. Long Siye did not get to hold her and felt disappointed.
"Overlord Long, are you feeling guilty about something?" Gu Xijiu looked at him and asked.
Long Siye felt strange and cold. He was very familiar with her character. In the past, she was always very cold to strangers and kept a distance with other people. Although she was standing quite close to him, he could feel the distance between them.
For the first time in a while, he could physically reach for her, but he felt that she was still so far away.
It made Long Siye blue as well in addition to Di Fuyi. He clenched his fists in his sleeves and tried to hold back. He looked at Gu Xijiu again and tried to reach out to her once more, "Xijiu, you should know how I feel…"
"I know you are guilty. If you feel sorry, can you compensate me with one thing?"
"What is that?" Long Siye asked in surprise.
Gu Xijiu lifted the hair on her forehead and said, "I remember that you said you could cure the birthmark on my forehead. Can you please remove it?"
Long Siye looked at the birthmark and said, "The red spot looks a bit odd. It is neither a birthmark nor normal red spot but looks like a sealing spot…"
"Sealing spot?" Gu Xijiu frowned when she heard that term, "What does it mean?"
Long Siye sighed, "Can you give me your wrist so that I can confirm?"
Gu Xijiu gave in and passed him her wrist.
Long Siye checked her pulse and finally let go. He looked at her and said, "You seem to be developing some spiritual power. Are you able to sense it?"
Gu Xijiu quietly sensed her body and was surprised! She felt some strange airflow in her stomach. This airflow was slightly different from the internal power that she usually harnessed. It was extremely light. When she wanted to test it again, she realized that she could not sense anything. It almost made her initial feeling feel like an illusion. She did not give up and continued to close her eyes to sense it.
Long Siye sighed, "You don’t have to try anymore. I have confirmed that it is there. However, you only have a little bit of power, and it is useless. You are cursed, and the red spot on your face is a sealing spot. You cannot be cured."
Gu Xijiu remained silent. Was she cursed? And, what was a 'Sealing Spot'? She did not understand these two words, but she understood the meaning of the last sentence. "You cannot be cured."
This news was very demoralizing for her. She looked at Long Siye again and said, "You did say that you can cure me within a year. Were you lying?"
Long Siye paused and suddenly took her hand, "Come with me, let me show you something."
He called his spiritual crane over and pulled her up with him. Then, he signaled the crane to fly toward a peak with snow.
...
The spiritual crane stopped on one of the ice peaks.
This peak was the highest peak in the Tianwen clan. It was 6,000 meters tall and was surrounded by numerous ice towers.
In the middle of these ice towers, there was a palace built of ice. It was massive and grand.
It was incredibly chilly up there, and Gu Xijiu was wearing very light clothing. Since she did not have spiritual power, she was freezing and trembling.
Long Siye wanted to take this opportunity to hold her, "Are you cold? Let me give you some warmth."
Gu Xijiu stepped back and dodged his hand. She avoided the awkward moment by looking ahead and asking, "What is the thing you want to show me?"
Long Siye looked sad but did not want to force her. He walked in front of her and said, "Come with me."
The snowy ground was very slippery, but fortunately, her Qing Gong was formidable and helped her keep her balance. The only challenge to her was the frigid weather.
