1746 Why Would You Say So? (2/2)

Suddenly, Gu Xijiu seemed to have a minor heart attack. She remembered the two brightest stars that she saw when she accompanied Di Fuyi in his house before. It seemed to have a link to her... She said that she would look out for the world with him, and not be a bird that was protected under his wings. Was her identity really comparable with Di Fuyi's?

”Why do you say this?” She wanted the truth.

This time, the messenger was silent for a long time...

”When you get out after 40 or 50 years, you will understand.”

40 or 50 years?! She could not wait that long! She seemed to think of something. She tried to ask indirectly, ”Is it true that the world cannot have two suns, and that the people cannot have two Lords?”

The messenger seemed stunned. ”This…” Before she waited for the voice to speak, Gu Xijiu continued, ”Since you are a messenger of Heavenly Order, you should not lie, right?”

”This...” The messenger could not continue, and it did not respond to her. However, Gu Xijiu did not need an answer. Her heart sank. Silence at this time was almost equivalent to acknowledgment…

”Am I the new Lord in future?” Her voice sounded shaky! It was definitely not something she looked forward to doing.

How could she guess it so quickly? The messenger did not even tell her anything! Anyway, it continued to remain silent.

”Will I replace him? Replace The Lord, Huang Tu?” The questions asked by Gu Xijiu were getting sharper, and it was close to the core of the problem.

Some key points that she could not think of seemed to be resolved. However, this was not something she personally wanted! She felt like she was being engulfed by a black hole. The truth that she managed to unravel was too cruel.

She actually wanted to hear the voice to deny it. She would even laugh when it did. Sadly, no such thing happened. Instead, Mu Feng's words floated in her heart. He was running out of time…
