1645 Physical Transcendence And Rebirth 4 (1/2)

Because of her incapability to deal with the taste of bitterness, Long Xi would always tease her by saying that an assassin should not possess such trait.

Gu Xijiu remembered answering, ”An assassin is still a human with flesh and bones. It is normal to have one minor imperfection.”

Now, she could finally overcome her so-called imperfection.

The sweets would actually interfere with the effectiveness of the medicine, so Long Siye chose to make no further comment and filled another glass of water for her instead.

Gu Xijiu noticed that she was still in the territory of Tianwen clan. The place that she was currently staying must be one of the guestrooms.

After drinking the glass of water, she immediately put her fingers on Long Siye's wrist.

Long Siye knew that she was worried about his condition, so he did not hide his wrist away and let her read his pulse. ”Don't worry, I am doing fine,” he explained.

”Didn't he send you to the Distant Fire Land?” Gu Xijiu asked immediately. The question had been haunting her for days, even when she was unconscious. Long Siye's spiritual power had been significantly reduced; she was concerned that he would no longer be able to tolerate the extreme heat.

In one of her many nightmares, she saw that Long Siye was burned alive and became entirely charred.

Long Siye shook his head. ”No, he did not. He seemed to be occupied by another matter and left urgently.”

The Lord left in a hurry. Before he went, he did say that he would postpone the punishment regarding the Distant Fire Land and that they would talk about it soon. Swiftly, he then disappeared into thin air.

Gu Xijiu was relieved. Seemingly, it was Long Siye who had been taking care of her for the past few days.

She got him into trouble and yet he still lavished every care on her.

Gu Xijiu looked down in guilt. She did not know what to feel about it. There was a mixed feeling of gratitude and guilt.
