Chapter 2494: A Woman That He Could Not Mess With
Gu Xijiu asked Kun Xueyi, "Are you able to return to your original form?"
She had no issues against children. However, Kun Xueyi was still bearing the face of an adult but had the body of a seven or eight-year-old kid. Additionally, he looked somewhat like a hybrid between a man and a woman. Nonetheless, he was still somewhat cute.
Kun Xueyi was severely injured at that time. It was already a miracle that he was still able to maintain his human figure despite his condition. Upon hearing Gu Xijiu’s request, he answered hesitantly, "Yes."
Instantly, he abandoned his human-like form and turned into an enormous fish. The fish was gold in color but bore the body of a whale and the head of a dolphin. It also had scarlet fins that were gently fluttering in the breeze. Its beautiful double eyelids further emphasized its big, round eyes. Every time it winked, its thick and curled lashes coming together like two pairs of waving fans.
The fish supported itself upright with its fins. "Like this?" It tried hard to look at Gu Xijiu’s expression. Kun Xueyi knew that it looked more adorable in this form rather than that of a toddler. In fact, what Gu Xijiu meant was for Kun Xueyi to look like an adult again. Due to its cuteness, she tried hard to suppress her urge to pet the fish. "This... This is your original form?"
The fish winked at Gu Xijiu and responded proudly, "Well, this is more or less how I look, except for the fact that I am a bit smaller than my actual size. My original size could eclipse a mountain." It was already thousands of times smaller than its actual size.
Gu Xijiu suddenly recalled a phrase that she read a long time ago. "In the north of the underworld, there is a fish, known as the Kun, with an enormous body that stretches across thousands of miles." There was even an exaggeration for comic effect that went, "A small pot is not enough to contain the massive Kun. It has such great fins that one would need two barbeque racks to support the fish." Jokes aside, she never knew that the Kun’s original form would be so beautiful. It looked more impressive than any other fish.
