165 I’ll Check Her Pulse (2/2)
Long Siye remained silent as he looked at Gu Xijiu. He seemed to be searching for something from her facial expression and body language. However, he was disappointed. Gu Xijiu looked natural and seemed to be ready to leave at any time.
It seemed to be genuine, but perhaps it was too genuine that it looked fake as well. He could not identify her real emotion and was unsure whether the girl in front of him was the person he was looking for.
As the Emperor saw them almost agree, he finally found an excuse to stop Long Siye, ”Overlord Long, please hold on. She can’t be your student.”
”Why?” Long Siye frowned.
”Because she obtained her talent from the gods!” The Emperor answered. He continued,
”Therefore, she can’t be anyone’s student. That includes being your student.”
Long Siye was not happy and looked at Gu Xijiu, ”You mean you received your talents from the gods?”
”Yes, what’s wrong with that?” Gu Xijiu looked upset as she asked.
”You… You’re silly!” Long Siye then grabbed her hand and said, ”Let’s go!”
He did not even want to stay any longer and dragged her along with him.
How could the Emperor let them go?
He instructed his best guard to block their way.
