Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Where was she trained to be an assassin and what were her strengths? Was there anyone she trusted? Where did she learn all her medical knowledge? Who was her master in Kung Fu?
Gu Xijiu felt like she had a headache, but she could not escape from those questions. Because of all those questions, the image of Long Xi appeared in her head again. It was her taboo, a person she did not want to talk about so that she could avoid the pain.
When she was thinking of creating another lie to entertain The Lord, he said, "Gu Xijiu, I won’t blame you if you come clean to me regardless of what you’ve gone through previously. It’s fine even if you’ve killed someone. However, if you’re trying to lie, I’ll make your life as difficult as I can!"
Gu Xijiu was speechless. Fine, The Lord was not easy to be tricked. She would get caught even if there was a very tiny flaw. Thus, she did not want to hide from him. Therefore, she told him everything except the clone part. She told him about the assassin training camp, about Long Xi and the science organization, and she also mentioned about Ye Hongfeng... But she slightly twisted the truth of how she died. She said Long Xi’s fiancee was ill and needed her heart. Hence, Long Xi drugged her, and she fainted...
The Lord listened until the end and then asked, "What’s the relationship between you and Ye Hongfeng?"
"Uhh?" Gu Xijiu was shocked.
"How could she use your heart? Based on what I know, only the identical twins could exchange hearts."
Gu Xijiu smiled awkwardly as they were not only twins but clones... However, The Lord might not know what a clone was even though he was very knowledgeable. It was very complicated and troublesome to explain the concept. Thus, she nodded, "We’re considered as special twins."
The Lord looked at her and asked, "Did your previous body look exactly like your current one?"
Gu Xijiu shook her head and answered, "Partially similar; there are quite many differences though."
The Lord remained silent.
The Firmament Stone could not help but secretly complain, "Master, you’ve told him everything, what if he put you in danger in the future?" That was its first time seeing its master comes clean to someone...
Gu Xijiu replied it, "He doesn’t need any excuse to kill me."
Yes, he could kill her anytime... Moreover, Gu Xijiu had very good instincts, she knew The Lord would not hurt her. He even pampered her earlier despite knowing that she was not from this place. He was trustworthy.
She had too many secrets and too many burdens. Sometimes, she really needed someone to listen to her. Since she felt secure with The Lord and she was forced to speak of her origins, she decided to tell him everything.
"What happened to Long Xi?" The Lord asked, and he continued, "You don't look like a person who would just let anyone stab you without a counterattack."
"I stabbed his left chest when he lost focus, probably… dead." Gu Xijiu had lost her consciousness after she stabbed Long Xi. Hence, she did not actually see him die.
Left side? The Lord frowned, as he knew Long Siye’s heart grew slightly to the right...
"You loved him very much?"
Gu Xijiu was shocked. Did she? She did not know now. However, she did think of growing old and dying together with him. It was a stable and warm feeling when she was together with Long Xi. Since her life was full of darkness, she liked the warmth and relied on it. She did not want to lose it once she had it.
