Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Di Fuyi sighed, "I was injured and lost more than half of my internal power. I wanted to find a quiet place to rest and restore it. However, you have interrupted my restoring process so if you are planning to take your revenge I think I will be defeated easily."
Gu Xijiu was shocked. Apparently, Tian Jiyue came with bad intentions but Di Fuyi still told him the truth. She was worried that Tian Jiyue would start to attack.
Tian Jiyue’s eyes were flashing but he did not speak. The aura that surrounded him was getting stronger.
Were they about to have an intense fight here?
When Gu Xijiu thought about it, "Di Fuyi’s palm pressed on her shoulder and he laughed lightly, "Brother Tian does not believe it? This little girl can prove it. She was kidnapped by Overlord Long to the Tianwen clan and I went to get her back personally. Although I successfully escaped from Tianwen clan, I was hurt by his defense army. When I reached here, I was no longer able to hold and finally fell down to this place. I’m still feeling dizzy until this point and I have no power at all. I still need her assistance to move so it is considered a total disaster to me. Suffice to say, it is the best time for you to attack me now."
When he spoke, there was sweat on his forehead and his face paled. He really looked very weak now.
Tian Jiyue grunted before walking away. He sat on his Golden Eyed Eagle and left the cave to adjourn far away.
Gu Xijiu was stunned.
Was the crisis solved?
This was too easy!
"Are you using the Empty City Stratagem? Your internal power has not recovered has it?" Gu Xijiu asked.
Di Fuyi sat on a rock and softly answered, "How can I recover in such a short period? I can only use such a tactic to scare him away."
"He was a bit too gullible." Gu Xijiu shook her head.
She thought that Celestial Master You was not someone who was easily suspicious but he somehow fell into the trap.
It seemed like Tian Jiyue had been cheated by Di Fuyi many times, so he would now ponder and think twice even when Di Fuyi was telling the truth…
"I deliberately left some loopholes in my story. Although the defense army in Tianwen clan is powerful, it can’t really hurt me. Moreover, if the defense army was triggered, it could be seen from the outside. Apparently, Tian Jiyue went to the Tianwen clan before and he knew that the defense army was not triggered. Therefore, when I said I was hurt by the defense army, he did not believe it and started to be more alert." Di Fuyi was very calm at this moment and softly explained to Gu Xijiu.
"Does he always get cheated by you?" Gu Xijiu asked the critical question.
"Uh… You are so smart!" Di Fuyi rubbed her head and chuckled, "When a person gets cheated too frequently, he will definitely act more cautiously. It is very understandable."
Gu Xijiu was very alert too and avoided his touch successfully.
Perhaps, it was due to Di Fuyi being talkative today, or that they had been going through a lot together, Gu Xijiu did not think too much when she talked to him. She asked bluntly, "What is the hatred between you and Celestial Master You?"
"Uhm, we have different opinions on politics; not much hatred. If I have to think of one, does it count as hatred if I had killed his disciple?"
Gu Xijiu asked, "How many disciples does he have?"
"Only one." Di Fuyi sighed, "He is quite fussy so he is very strict at choosing his disciples; it is akin to choosing his own wife. He has only one disciple after so many years and have been treating that disciple like his own baby."
Gu Xijiu remained silent.
Apparently, it did not seem that the only different viewpoint was in politics. It was as though Di Fuyi had killed his entire family, when it was only his disciple who died!
