3033 Playing Off One Against The Other 4 (1/2)

”It is not the right time yet. Let's wait,” Di Fuyi suggested while observing the clouds of dust around them.

”Hmm?” Gu Xijiu was perplexed.

Di Fuyi sighed before explaining, ”One of them is the Creation Deity, the other is the demon of the former Creation Deity. The fight is causing the place to undergo earth-shattering changes, which probably involves the entire desert. Nowhere else is safe. Look at the clouds of dust. Their fight will affect anyone with a thousand miles. Without the power of a Great Deity, one will perish as soon as he or she enters the radius of their battlefield.”

Clearly, he had a point. Gu Xijiu agreed with him.

”We are not capable of defeating them. You are injured, and I am exhausted. Running away right now will make us both easy targets. This does not sound like a good plan at all.”

”Shall we wait until both of them have worn each other out?”

”Smart,” Di Fuyi complimented, while gently caressing her hand.

Gu Xijiu threw him a quick look. She was actually quite impressed by her husband's modest estimate of his power. He frankly admitted his weakness when he was not at his best.

Sometimes, he would go the extra mile to achieve his goal, even though the path he takes may be seen as somewhat wayward. Perhaps his Kung Fu was not what made him invincible but his insightful ideas.

”Baby, why are you looking at me with judgment in your eyes?”

”You are mistaken. I am idolizing you with a sense of admiration.”

They continued to chat for a while as Gu Xijiu was more relieved. Knowing that her son was safe and that they would eventually be safe, too, made their chat more relaxed. With a sigh of relief, she said, ”They would not stand a chance if you recall your memory and Kung Fu as the Master of the Heavenly Law. Also, we would not have to waste our time here waiting for our chance of escape.”

Di Fuyi started thinking about what she said but soon broke into a smile. ”Don't worry. I will teach them a lesson even without the power of a deity. A well-thought plan is better than a moment of bravery. We should anticipate and outsmart the competition. In time, we shall defeat them all.”

Gu Xijiu stayed quiet, but her respect had been won over by Di Fuyi. ”You are always full of wisdom.”
