The lingering moonlight lit up the entire hill, but there was no sign of anyone around.

Di Fuyi found himself on the spot where Gu Xijiu had rested before looking a little pale. Had she left? Her work was not done yet, right? She needed 32 more pieces. That should be another full day of work. How could she simply abandon her task? Di Fuyi took a quick glance around the hill, but could not see anyone. Where had she gone?

Although Di Fuyi was concerned for her wellbeing, Gu Xijiu's Kung Fu should be enough for her to keep almost anyone away. That thought put his mind at ease a little. Nevertheless, he decided to contact her using a spell, but she did not pick up the call.

Was she ignoring him? How could she cancel their wedding so easily? Having known her, she would not simply ignore him this way. Moreover, from the way she proposed the cancellation, she sounded quite carefree about it.

It was normal for her to feel a little lost, as it would be quite troublesome for her to find another man to take over his role.

Therefore, her sudden disappearance must be a sign of danger.
