He Is My Father
He Is My Father
Yun Yanli seemed very delighted at her offer. "I shall kindly accept your offer."
Actually, Gu Xijiu could tell that she had continuously been followed in the past few days. Moreover, different people would follow her each day. Apparently, they must have acted on someone's instigation.
After all, she was only here for fun. She was open and poised, so she was not worried about being followed. She continued her daily routine as usual as if they never existed.
Undoubtedly, they must be Yun Yanli's men. She knew that he must be suspicious of her identity. He must be worried that she might be a spy from the Devil Kingdom.
He made his appearance in the end. Did he trust her now? Or was he taking the matter personally to find out about her identity?
Gu Xijiu did not mind at all, regardless of his intention. There would always be a way to deal with him. Moreover, he was a prince in the Saha World. There must be something that she could use about his knowledge of the place.
…
Gu Xijiu took him to the biggest restaurant in town.
The food was obviously full of spiritual power. It offered good enhancement to improve one's spiritual power, though was very expensive. Also, the currency used in the restaurant was not in silvers, but a type of spiritual stone.
Fortunately, Gu Xijiu was very capable at making money. In the past month, she managed to earn some money during her stay. It was not a problem to buy a meal for this prince.
During the meal, Yun Yanli finally asked her, "Miss Gu, are you looking for someone?"
Gu Xijiu did not hesitate and answered frankly, "Yes, I am looking for someone."
Yun Yanli volunteered personally to acquaint her with the search. He asked about the person's characteristics.
Gu Xijiu pinched her lips into a line before she answered. "I only know about a man who wears purple robes and nothing more."
Yun Yanli was obviously shocked by her reply. He remained silent for a few moments. "In the Saha World, only royalty wears purple."
Gu Xijiu shook her head in disapproval. "The robe that the man wears is bright purple that is somewhat obtrusive. Except for your father, I have met all the other members of the royal family."
Yun Yanli took a pause before continuing, "In the Saha World, only the Emperor Immortal can wear bright purple."
Gu Xijiu was trying to pick up a meatball with her chopsticks when she heard the news. The meatball fell from her grip, followed by her obvious exclamation of surprise.
Was the Emperor Immortal the man she was looking for, the man who already had two sons and a daughter?
Yun Yanli looked at her with confused eyes. "Why are you searching for him?"
Gu Xijiu shook her head to dismiss his doubts. "Not for any specific reasons. We used to have some interactions in the Lower Bound, but then he disappeared so suddenly."
"How does he look like?"
Gu Xijiu shook her head again. "I do not know. I have lost all memory about him. I can only roughly recall that he used to wear purple robes. I remember nothing more."
Yun Yanli heaved a sigh and answered, "Although he used to wear purple in the Lower Bound, it does not mean that he would wear the same here. The search will be easier if you can remember his appearance, but everything seems difficult now. I assume that you have also forgotten about his name, haven't you?"
Gu Xijiu shook her head helplessly.
Yun Yanli paused before continuing his question, "If you meet again, will you be able to recognize him?"'
"I should be able to," Gu Xijiu responded with uncertainty.
Yun Yanli thought about it for a moment. Then, he brought up an odd looking mirror and performed a spell on it. "Is he the one?" He showed the mirror to Gu Xijiu.
Gu Xijiu took a careful look at the mirror and saw a charming man with brightly colored purple robes.
His dashing brows complemented the man's beautiful eyes. The man had a straightedge nose and very defined, plump lips. He moderately resembled Yun Yanli's appearance, but more dignified and commanding,
Gu Xijiu dismissed it immediately. "It is not him!"
Apparently, Yun Yanli was relieved to hear her answer. "He is my father."
