2861 I Refuse To Be Taken Advantage Of Any Longer 3 (2/2)

Gu Xijiu did not even look back. ”Relax. I only need three more days here. See you then.” She waved goodbye to him.

Slowly, she walked into the blizzard again. Di Fuyi stood and watched as she gradually disappeared in the snow. A moment later, he returned to the ice cabin and took a walk around the house while tracing the walls from time to time. It did not take long before a complete set of jewelry emerged in different corners.

There was a hairpin, a necklace, a bracelet, and a pair of earrings. The jewelry set was the one that he offered to Gu Xijiu as a gift not too long ago.

He picked them up and started talking to the accessories, ”She is unaware that part of her speedy recovery is because of you. I know that she will eventually accept these gifts. It is only a matter of time. When I am accomplished and recognized, I will formally give you out to her again.”

He stood frozen for a while, trying to immerse himself in her sweet scent that still lingered in the air. With his eyes closed, he seemed to open up his arms in a hugging motion.

…

Gu Xijiu was still worried about her disciple, so she decided to return to Tianyin Valley to examine his injuries.

What had happened between them was unpleasant, so she decided to keep a low profile and snuck into Tianyin Valley without alerting anyone.

Everything in the Tianyin Valley was just the same; the serenity remained undisturbed. Even with her absence for the past two months, the place was still surprisingly tidy and well organized.

While maneuvering through the Tianyin Valley, Gu Xijiu hid her tracks by using the invisibility spell. By merely eavesdropping on a conversation between her servants, she knew that Fan Qianshi's injuries were almost fully recovered. He was able to walk on his own and had started to work hard on improving his kung fu.

His impressive achievement in upgrading his status to a Great Deity had also attracted many to come here and congratulate him.
