Chapter 2503: Please Do Not Do Anything Silly
Gu Xijiu had not anticipated that Di Fuyi would stay as a statue for so long. Her initial guess was that it would only take him a few hours to return. However, eight days had passed, and the statue remained unchanged. She started to doubt whether he had really turned into the jade statue after all.
Meanwhile, Yun Yanli was still after them. Yet, she was never afraid of him or worried that any of her plans might fail. It was the lifeless statue in front of her that had become her biggest concern. Could the statue remain in its state forever? Was he ever going to wake up?
She stayed by his side every day and night. She would even place the statue on her bed even when she was having a rest. She even wrapped her arms tightly around his waist whenever she slept. She would always hope for a miracle; she wanted to see his charming smile again. But every morning, she was faced with the same disappointment. The solid, lifeless statue remained just the same.
She was not someone who was terribly keen on talking, but every time she was with the statue, she would blabber on about everything they had been through together. Doctors from the modern world would say that the power of words was able to wake coma patients from their prolonged state of unconsciousness.
Gu Xijiu had been putting this practice into full effect as she talked endlessly with Di Fuyi even though he never responded. The Firmament Stone was awake, but it was unsure of Di Fuyi’s condition. It knew that Di Fuyi used to turn himself into a jade statue before as a way to practice his Kung Fu, but the condition only lasted for two days. Unlike now, where it had clearly been more than two days.
Had he become too obsessed with his meditation to the point of becoming a lifeless statue? At the thought of the possibility, the Firmament Stone offered to hook itself onto the wrist of the jade statue to try and examine his body.
After all, it was made from the most precious form of jade. Naturally, it was the one that possessed the strongest sensitivity towards the jade statue. Even though it tried to help, the result was the same. There was not a single trace of the man. It tried to absorb the statue’s spiritual power, but could hardly sense any trace of spiritual power.
