Chapter 3025: Meeting (4)
Di Fuyi took another glance at the surrounding black water and seemed to have a thought. "There must be something in the water that is affecting your state of mind. You are not the kind of person who gives up so easily."
Gu Xijiu was hit by a sudden realization too. When did she become so weak and vulnerable?
It was not the end of the world! Even if it was and everything came crashing down, she would normally be out there challenging the impossible. Suicidal thoughts would never be her option.
It was then that she realized that the murky water corroded not only her skin but also diminished her will power.
Di Fuyi continued to have a conversation with her while treating her wounds. During their exchange, Gu Xijiu told him everything that happened here before he came. Obviously, the background of the woman in white came as an unpleasant surprise to Di Fuyi.
"That explains it. When I looked into the depths of her soul trying to find out who she was, I realized that she was just like you. I was utterly shocked, thinking that your soul had been swollen whole, which resulted in her looking exactly like you too. I did not realize that she was a demon that used to be part of the deepest obsession in your past life."
Gu Xijiu was only a few hundred years old, which put her at a significantly more tender age compared to Di Fuyi, whose lifespan was stretched over tens of thousands of years in total. Many things that she could not solve were no problems for Di Fuyi at all.
