1635 Tomorrow, She Would Become A Brand New Self!

The Wisdom Fruit was the exact ingredient needed to change one's body. According to Long Siye's estimations, the Wisdom Fruit should take one month to ripen, but it somehow matured in half a month. 

Maybe the heavens want her to abandon her current body and return it promptly to cut all relations with Di Fuyi as soon as possible.

Gu Xijiu took a light breath. "Give me some time. I'll go over now."

Long Siye had no idea that she would be that agitated. After pausing momentarily, he said, "You can take some time to think about it. Perhaps come over after the Spring Lantern Festival?"

"There's no need to think about anything," she interjected. "I'll come over right now."

Since it is only a matter of time before she dies, Gu Xijiu wants to free herself from this mess.

She raised her head and looked to the sky. The setting sun had already sunk below the horizon with roseate clouds scattered across the skyline.

She hung up the directed audio spell. After bidding farewell to Long Moyan, she did not go back to the Gu residence but instead summoned the Wind Caller and went straight to Tianwen Mountain.

Long Siye had said that the best time to change one's body is at midnight. If nothing goes awry, she will become a brand new self tomorrow!



Gu Xijiu did not use any warp spells to travel because she still had ample time and wanted to accustom herself to life with a level eight spiritual power.

The space-warping spell requires a spiritual power of at least level ten. Once she changes her body, she will not be able to use it anymore.

The Wind Caller glided along the air as Gu Xijiu sat inside the carriage and beheld the scenery outside through the curtains.

As she did not set a barrier to resist the wind, the currents grazed her face like a drizzle of blades.

The mussel and Lu Wu did not know what she had in her mind. Lu Wu took on the form of a child and slept along the wall of the carriage while the mussel shrunk itself into the size of a plate and opened its shell near Gu Xijiu's feet to converse with her.

"Master, you've been running errands in the Tianwen clan quite a lot recently. Have you taken a liking to Long Siye?" The mussel was quite snoopy.

Gu Xijiu tapped on its shell. "Don't talk nonsense. He and I are only friends." And they will only be friends.

Some things in fate when missed will be missed forever and have no chance of recurring again. It is no different with love as well.

She knows her feelings toward Long Siye. She can treat him as a friend until death and risk her life for him, but she is unable to love him ever again.

Long Siye deserves someone better; someone who can love him wholeheartedly and has not gone through a lot of vicissitudes like her.

She might marry someone in the future, maybe because of love, maybe because of a sense of obligation, but neither reason would lead her to Long Siye. 

"Mussel, if my spiritual power drops in the future, will you still treat me as your master?" Gu Xijiu asked in a casual manner.

The mussel became surprised. "Master, once one's spiritual power rises, it would not drop. A person's spiritual power can only be depleted, but with adequate training, it will be restored ."

"I said 'if'"

The mussel raised its shell. "Master, no matter what happens you'll always be my master! Even if your spiritual power drops to abysmal levels!"

Gu Xijiu felt gratified. She knew that even though the mussel was a glutton, it would not betray her.

She took a look at Lu Wu. Lu Wu was taking a nap, but it heard their conversation. It opened its eyes and said to her, "You'll always be my master! I'll never treat you otherwise!"

Gu Xijiu had told it all about a modern drama before. It took a special liking to stories involving special agents and had memorized the lines therein.

Gu Xijiu felt a slight warmth in her heart and patted Lu Wu. Lu Wu returned to its original form and wagged its nine tails as it took a step back. "Master, please don't touch me anymore."

The bracelet that Celestial Master Zuo had put on it had retained its perverse function.
