The teenager clenched his fist tightly and looked angry. Meanwhile, the black-robed man smiled. “After we catch him, I will hand him over to you first so that you can torture him and get your revenge. Sound good?”
“Thank you, master!” The teenager bowed.
The man in the black robe chuckled. “Die Er, you don’t have to be so humble with me. You are my most trusted subordinate, and I have always valued your contributions. As long as you execute my order well, I will not mistreat you.”
The teenager looked happy. “Certainly!” His answer this time was a lot louder.
“Well, let’s go.” The black-robed man waved his hand.
The teenager followed him but just when he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something. He bowed and asked, “Master, I had investigated the incident when the Tree Palace was destroyed. Gu Xijiu was the girl ‘Chong Sheng’ who sneaked into the Tree Palace. She has an extremely high skill in the Upper Bound. It is a golden opportunity for us that she has lost her spiritual power and memory when she comes here. Should we also take her down? If we put her into the alchemy, we can…”
Before he could finish his sentence, a black light flashed and seemed to aim for his cheek! The teenager did not expect to get such a tight slap on his face! He actually spun one round after the slap, and when he could stand up straight, there was blood flowing down from his lips.
The black-robed man spoke in a cruel and evil tone, “I have told you before. You should not touch her! If you dare to touch her, I will take away your life!”
The teenager kneeled on the ground and looked incredibly uncomfortable. He whispered, “Noted.”
“Remember, she is my bottom line. If you dare to touch her, I will make your life more miserable than death!”
“I don’t dare to do so.”
The black-robed man no longer looked at him. He turned around and left.
The green-clothed teenager still did not get up. However, his fists had slowly clenched tightly inside his sleeves. All this was about Gu Xijiu. What was so good about her? How could she get such special treatment from his master? Unfortunately, he did not find out about this woman earlier, or else he would have secretly gotten rid of her.
…
When Gu Xijiu once again teleported back to the city, it was already close to dawn. The first thing she did when came back was to look for Di Fuyi in his room. The room was still the same as the time when she left. Nothing had changed during the time that she was away.
Apparently, the owner here had never returned either. Disappointment surged in her heart. Did he not want to come back, or did something unexpected happen to him? She was tired, so she sat down on a chair to think.
After all, she was drenched by rain for the whole night. Her body was soaked as if she had just come out from a bath. Even her hair was wet and tightly stuck to her scalp. The water droplets on her body trickled on the carpet under her foot.
She looked around, and the room was very clean. As it was rented temporarily, there was very little that belonged to him in this room. Only the mattress on the bed belonged to him. Di Fuyi was very obsessed with cleanliness, so he did not like to sleep on the bedding prepared by others. Hence, no matter where he went, he always brought his own bedding.
It was soft and clean like silk. As Gu Xijiu had been very close to him over the past few days, she somewhat understood his style and personality. If he did not plan to sleep at this place, he would definitely take his bedding away with him. Even if it were dirty, he would destroy it and would not leave it to others. He was unusually fussy about these types of things.
Now that his bedding was still here. If he did not plan to live here anymore, he would have certainly cleared it. So, as long as he nothing happened to him, he would come back sooner or later. He would either continue to stay or come back to take away his bedding!
