She had been waiting for two hours.
Just as she felt thirsty from having constantly chatted with the Firmament Stone, Di Fuyi finally arrived.
He appeared right in front of her. She was mentally prepared, but when she suddenly saw him, her heart raced.
“Why are you so late? I have been waiting here for so long!” This was the first sentence that Gu Xijiu uttered.
Instead of waiting for Di Fuyi to talk, she fired several questions in quick succession. “What is wrong with you? I was obviously in the Crystal Palace with you… How did I suddenly come back to my original body? Is it because my cloned body was being punished and would always suck people’s spiritual power? You could heal it, right? So why did you put me back in my original body? Why did you wait for me to be awake? Were you afraid of me having an accident in the process of being resurrected? By the way, there was an accident. Somehow I have Lan Jingke’s memories… It was quite funny that Lan Yaoguang said he wanted to give his throne to me…”
She jabbered, and there was almost no room for others to interrupt.
Di Fuyi looked at her and did not speak. When she had finished her series of questions, he asked, “Gu Xijiu, how come you are the one who is in this body?”
He spoke calmly in his usual tone. It sounded elegant and every word could be heard clearly.
Gu Xijiu was stunned. “What?”
Di Fuyi stared at her pale face. “You should not be the one who is awake…”
He frowned slightly and seemed confused. “She should be the one who woke up… Did something happen during the process?”
He walked a few steps toward her, and his palms were glistening with colorful light.
It was the first time Gu Xijiu felt pressured by his tall figure. She wanted to retreat at first. However, she held back her emotions and stayed. She took a deep breath and looked up at him. “Di Fuyi, what do you mean by that?”
Di Fuyi stood there watching her. The moonlight shone on his robe and mottled on his face. It made his handsome face look half-dark. “Lan Jingke should be the one who woke up. The Empress of the Mermaids. It should not have been you.”
Gu Xijiu felt as if she fell into an ice cave. She finally stepped back. Her face looked pale. “Are you… Are you kidding? This is my body, my original body, how could I wake up as Lan Jingke?”
Did he eat the wrong medicine that day or was he possessed by someone else? How could he say something so absurd? A thought seemed to have struck her. She quickly took a good look at Di Fuyi and then shouted, “You are not Di Fuyi! You are the impostor!”
The real Di Fuyi loved her so much, how could he expect to see Lan Jingke wake up in Gu Xijiu’s original body? Di Fuyi and Lan Jingke were only friends. Di Fuyi used to tell her that when Lan Jingke’s soul dispersed, it was genuinely dispersed and could not be brought back to life anymore. He would also never use her original body to bring Lan Jingke back to life… Hence, this Di Fuyi must be an impostor!
However, her speculation was immediately rebuffed by Di Fuyi. He did not speak but pulled up his sleeves. A wave of colorful lights flashed and shot directly on a Moonlight Tree not far away!
A loud sound could be heard. The tough Moonlight Tree that could not even be cut off by an ax was shattered into pieces by the colorful lights. The dust was scattered everywhere and also dropped on Gu Xijiu’s clothes.
Gu Xijiu stood there, and her entire body went stiff. She recognized that this move was the most potent attack that Di Fuyi possessed.
