2954 May Mother Live On For Tens Of Thousands Of Thousands Of Years? (2/2)

”Xuyue, you will have to get used to this as it will occur again in the future.” Di Fuyi said strictly.

He did not slow down. Instead, he sped up.

Thoughtfully, he offered her a green cloth to cover up her eyes to ease her dizziness.

Due to his incredible abilities, Di Fuyi took less than two hours to cover a total distance of 2,000 miles.

But during his absence, Gu Xijiu knew that she needed to get things in order on her end.

She sent Mu Feng and Mu Lei to the underworld to see if Di Hao's soul had been captured.

Meanwhile, Mu Dian and Mu Yun were sent to check on the wizardry barrier to see there was any breach during their rest.

As for her, she had to stay behind with Di Hao and keep strengthening his body with an array of spells so that she would not lose the last fragment of his soul.

Seeing Di Fuyi return meant a lot to her. Relieved, she ran towards him as soon as she saw him. ”Fuyi, come and check on him.”

She tried to stay calm, but the terrified look on her face spilled the truth of how anxious she truly felt. Her fingers went numb and were already ice-cold.

Di Fuyi grasped her by the hand and gave her a tight hug. ”Don't be afraid.”

Di Xuyue removed the blindfold to see her mother but was distracted as soon as she saw Di Hao lying lifelessly on the bed. She jumped down and was ready to rush to the bed. ”What happened to brother?”

Di Fuyi had to pull her back. ”Xuyue, stay where you are. Stand aside and watch.”

The mussel chimed in and asked, ”Should I bring our young lady outside?”

The presence of a child could lead to unnecessary trouble. Therefore, the mussel thought that it would be better for the adults if little Xuyue were brought outside.

Di Fuyi disagreed. ”There is no need for that. Let her stay.”

Gu Xijiu looked at him in bewilderment, so Di Fuyi explained himself, ”Xuyue has to grow up. There is no need for us to keep her away from everything.” He then gave her hand a tight squeeze.

Quietly, Gu Xijiu agreed, for she understood that her husband was only trying to train their daughter to keep calm in situations such as the one they were facing.
