Chapter 3026: Could It Be Fan Qianshi?
Di Fuyi thought about it for a moment and gave his opinion, "As you said, the demon has been trapped here, undisturbed and unmoved for tens of thousands of years. It only emerged as a problem about 20,000 years ago, which indicates that someone must have dropped by and disrupted the balance in the desert, turning it into a tool for the demon to consume lives and grow its power. There are two possible reasons why the demon has become independent. First of all, she inherited some memories and capabilities from the Creation Deity. Secondly, she has taken away many lives of powerful people whose souls were patched and kneaded to sustain her existence."
Gu Xijiu murmured, "Her existence is a mixture of so many lives. No wonder she knows so much. I thought that her knowledge came from the conversations she had with the people who died here. Little did I know it was from their souls that she had consumed."
"Are you having doubts about yourself?" Di Fuyi gently caressed her hair as he asked.
Gu Xijiu did not doubt her own capability. She always knew that she was not perfect, to begin with anyway.
Then, Di Fuyi planted a soft kiss on her forehead. "You don’t need to doubt yourself. I love the way you are, being perfectly imperfect."
Feeling a little lost, Gu Xijiu was not sure if it was meant to be a compliment or an insult.
She gave him a light kick and added, "You are not perfect either. Your cooking is terrible."
"We are two of a kind, so we should stop belittling each other."
He then kissed the tip of her nose and continued, "Are you still in great pain?"
Gu Xijiu said nothing at first. She paused for a moment and suddenly realized why he had been blabbering on and on. He was trying to divert her attention away from her physical pain.
