His Punishment (2)
His Punishment (2)
After she thought for a while, she went to find the mussel and Lu Wu. These two beasts were now at the highest level among all beasts so they could enter Biwu Palace easily. However, Wind Caller could not make it due to its lower spiritual power. Thus Gu Xijiu left Wind Caller in her residence to assist Luo Zhanyu.
The Biwu Palace was heavenly to them; they could practice as much as possible there. When Gu Xijiu found them, they were chatting and catching fish in the Linghu Lake. As they saw her coming, they shrank into the water and cautiously greeted her. "Master…"
Gu Xijiu looked at the two of them. The mussel's shell had turned rose gold; it was majestic and dazzling under the daylight. Lu Wu had also returned to its original appearance and was swimming in the water. It had grown into the size of a pony. It occasionally looked like a peacock when its nine tails were stretched out.
Lu Wu's original appearance resembled a human with the face of a tiger which had claws and nine tails. Its face was beautiful, with big eyes and long eyelashes.
Gu Xijiu was relieved. After the two of them came to the Biwu Palace, their progress was expeditious! Since Gu Xijiu was in a good mood, she greeted the two of them and asked if they had encountered any problems lately.
Lu Wu and the mussel looked at each other. The mussel was more courageous, so it asked, "Master, are you in a good mood today?"
Gu Xijiu raised her eyebrows. "Have I appeared to be in a bad mood lately?"
Lu Wu and the mussel nodded in unison. "Master, your recent mood has been terrible!" These days, their owner either did not even see them. When she did, she would tell them for their slow progress.
Moreover, it was getting rare to see their owner smile. She would only barely smile when she was with DI Fuyi. On a usual day, she always seemed like a person who lost her soul, and her temper was terrible. This made Lu Wu and the mussel keep their distance from her.
It was rare for them to see a genuine smile on Gu Xijiu's face. Hence, Lu Wu and the mussel storied about her recent state. Gu Xijiu felt very guilty. She had been desperate to help Di Fuyi since a few days ago. Although she had been smiling, it did not fool her two pets.
She used to be the kind of person whose emotions were always under control. Never in her wildness imagination did she expect to be in such a situation. Gu Xijiu then looked at the two of them. "Will you accompany me to a forbidden place tomorrow?"
Lu Wu and the mussel nodded. "The Lord has already told us about it. He also taught us some techniques that can be used in the Buddha Fire Land. We have been spending our time practicing in the water."
Gu Xijiu's heart was filled with warmth. It seemed Di Fuyi had arranged everything for her... "Well, let's practice together! I will take you for dinner later!"
The mussel and Lu Wu looked at each other again. They were so touched and wanted to cry! Their owner had finally returned to normal! They were ecstatic!
The mussel immediately placed its order. "Master, I want to eat a roasted deer! Grill an entire sheep for me too..." It mentioned seven or eight dishes in one breath, which were what Gu Xijiu was best at, and they were also its most favorite dishes.
