Venerated Venomous Consort

Gu Xijiu narrowed her eyes on Long Moyan. There was a light-filled aura surrounding him right now. Was he prepared to fight with her? He seemed to possess a high spiritual power. Much higher than Gu Xijiu could pick up from before. Perhaps he was good at concealing his power.

Based on their conversation, he did not really care about Fairy Queen Li. Perhaps, he was even more powerful than Fairy Queen Li, and his spiritual power was probably higher than level ten!

Gu Xijiu immediately sensed her inner power and realized she still possessed a level ten spiritual power despite her previous calamity. Although, she had consumed some of her spiritual power when she tried to break the wizardry barrier earlier; hence, she felt a little weak at the moment.

Unfortunately, Long Moyan was well prepared for this day. He had set a wizardry barrier which could weaken others’ power. Besides that, something was wrong with the tea she drank… She realized that she would probably lose if she were to get into a fight with him today. Gu Xijiu then glimpsed at him with a frown and asked, “What do you want?”

Long Moyan added, “Xijiu, I know it’s difficult for you to accept me in such a short time. In fact, we have plenty of time. The world would belong to us; I’ll help you to manage this continent. In fact, you probably didn’t know that I have another identity…”

“What is it?”

“I am the stand-in Lord!” Long Moyan answered with a tone of arrogance. Indeed, he was the one!

Gu Xijiu slightly pursed her lips. She recalled the ‘annoying voice’ in her head did mention about a temporary substitute Lord…

She remained silent as she fixed her eyes on him.

“Xijiu, both of you disobeyed the heavenly laws; hence, you received the punishments. Initially, you were supposed to be reborn a few hundred years later. Fortunately for us, Huang Tu built several credit temples for you, and he tried to solve many problems for the people in order to accumulate blessings for you… Therefore, you got to come back earlier. However, it would still take you 38 years to come back to life while Huang Tu only had three months left to live. He could not wait until you were reborn to pass down all the responsibilities; hence, the immortals appointed me to be the stand-in Lord, so that I can take over everything and rule the world on behalf of him until you came back. By that time, I’ll need to let you succeed the throne…”

Gu Xijiu still remained silent with an expressionless face.

Long Moyan continued, “I also just got to know about the heavenly order in my dream recently, that’s why I’m staying here. Firstly, I’m here to take care of you. Secondly, I’m waiting for Huang Tu to find me… I think he should have known about my new identity by now; hence, he will definitely come one of these few days…”

Gu Xijiu chuckled. “How do you know he will come? According to how well I know him, he doesn’t take the heavenly laws seriously…”

Long Moyan looked at her with a smile. “Oh, really?”

Suddenly, Gu Xijiu’s heart skipped a beat! Indeed, Di Fuyi always disobeyed the heavenly laws. However, this could affect Gu Xijiu’s future. She seemed to recall the scene when she last saw Di Fuyi. He looked so lonely when he played the flute for her dead body the entire night…

Her heart was in pain, and her eyes were wet. He could really do anything for her!

Long Moyan noticed her eyes were red even though she remained silent. Although he had no idea what was on her mind, he knew there was no one else who could affect her emotions like that man…

He suddenly pointed to the sky. “Look, Xijiu.”
