Chapter 1805: Hope
What kind of experience was it to watch the closest person you love walk step by step to death while being too helpless to do anything about it? Weak people would probably collapse into depression merely out of fear. Even Gu Xijiu was getting more and more anxious every passing day.
Fortunately, Di Fuyi still looked the same. He was still young and handsome; full of energy. However, the big star that represented him was already dull and crumbling. It looked like it could fall at any time.
Di Fuyi had just recently taught her about stargazing in the past month. It was extremely complicated. It was not just about observing the constellation or brightness of the stars. Through stargazing, one could see the rise and fall of a dynasty, as well as the fate of significant people. It was not something that could be learned overnight.
Although Di Fuyi did not have much time, he had to make sure that Gu Xijiu picked up all the skills she needed. Thus, he delayed the teaching until now. He expected that Gu Xijiu would spend a lot of time watching the stars in the future.
The more she watched, the more nervous she got. The more she looked at it, the more desperate she was. This was not unlike a situation where a person discovers that a terrible fate lies before them. They would choose to live differently and enjoy whatever time they have remaining. However, if that fate were to befall on their loved one instead, he or she would be very anxious and restless. It would only get worse with each passing day.
Gu Xijiu was now in this situation. The more she looked at the astrological map, the more uneasiness and fear she had! The pressure she had was enough to make her breathless. Upon observing the crumbling King Star, she was dying to fly up to hold it or support it from underneath.
After she learned astrology, she finally realized that the fall of the stars was irreversible and she did not have any method to change Di Fuyi’s fate.
