Di Fuyi did not open his eyes, but he softly said, "Xijiu, I am still hurt. Do you want me to use the forbidden technique to swap your body back?"
Gu Xijiu was shocked. "It is not a forbidden technique, is it? Long Siye told me that it would not require any spiritual power."
"Do you believe him or believe me?"
Gu Xijiu did not answer.
Both of them did not speak for a moment.
After Gu Xijiu had applied the medicine for him, she calmed herself down and asked, "Are you hiding something from me? I think that based on our current relationship, we should not keep any secrets from each other. Seriously, I don't want to be suspicious of you. However, I have a feeling that you are very reluctant to swap my body for me. Do you have any scruples?"
Di Fuyi remained silent for a moment. His eyes remained closed. "You are overthinking things. I don't understand why you are so keen on returning into your old body. As I said, this body is better than the body that belonged to General Gu's daughter…"
"I like that body! The love bracelet is still on that body. Moreover, I can't communicate with the Firmament Stone anymore…"
"Well, with or without the love bracelet, you will still be my wife. Why do you care so much about that bracelet? As for the issue of the Firmament Stone, I will speak to it later. I will find a way to allow this body to communicate with it."
Gu Xijiu was speechless. In the end, Di Fuyi was still reluctant to comply.
She did not give up. She told him about what Long Siye had mentioned earlier regarding the fact that she had the same gene arrangement as Long Fan.
Di Fuyi had not expected this piece of news. He asked her to try and locate Long Fan using her senses. Gu Xijiu explained, "I have tried doing so, but I couldn't sense him. Perhaps it's a one-way thing."
Though she had just explained it to him, she tried focusing her mind again on seeing whether she was able to sense him. Nevertheless, she was unable to detect anything. When she was about to open her eyes, she suddenly felt cold as if ice surrounded her. Inside the ice, there was a shadow-like human. She tried very hard to focus on it but suddenly her body became warm, and it felt like she was waking up from a dream. She opened her eyes and said, "I think I saw him!"
"Where is he?"
"He is somewhere which is ice cold. Perhaps somewhere in the deep sea. He is frozen inside an ice block…" Gu Xijiu tried to describe what she had seen.
Di Fuyi thought for a moment and said, "Was it a figure of your imagination thought by your subconscious?"
"What do you mean?"
"Look, the clone that was created by Long Siye was placed inside the ice palace. You woke up from this body in an iced crystal coffin. You even saw the clone body of Mo Zhao inside the crystal iced coffin. Perhaps it had created a reflective conditioned consciousness in your mind that, if Long Fan were to awake he would be waking up from inside a cold chilly place. If there was no unexpected event, Long Fan had no way of escaping from the underground palace, and he would have died. If he came back to life, he must also wake up from inside a clone body, so it is not surprising that you had such a thought."
Gu Xijiu remained silent. She frowned and wondered if what Di Fuyi said was right. It seemed like what he said made sense.
She tried closing her eyes and focused her senses again. However, she could not sense anything anymore.

Blue Hill Continent was quite similar to the Antarctic continent in the modern day where ice floes formed the land. There were perennial storms all year along, and ice hills formed everywhere. The temperature was always between -40 to -50 degrees. It was deserted and desolate. Typically only people with water element spiritual power who wanted to improve their strength would come to this place.
