Chapter 1604: A Pa.s.ser-by
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The roof of the carriage was decorated with a few bells that were made from pink crystals. The entire interior looked unadorned and clean. The addition of the pink crystal bells complemented the carriage by providing it a sense of elegance.
Gu Xijiu’s Wind Caller was very surprised. It cheered and rushed towards it. The Wind Caller was already a majestic beast of level eight. Its appearance was all white with a silver halo. It rushed to the front and tied itself to the carriage by using a spell. It was as though the carriage was specially made for it.
The silver carriage and the silver beast were indeed a perfect match, complementing one another. The crowd cheered in a chorus.
Tian Jiyue was pleased with the sight. “Xijiu, take a look inside and see If you like it.”
Gu Xijiu certainly would not reject the request. She thanked him and went straight into the carriage.
The interior was even more delicate. It was not entirely sumptuous, but very practical. There was enough s.p.a.ce for her to sit or lie down comfortably. She could meditate, write, or read in the carriage. It was not very s.p.a.cious but was complete with soft carpets and comfortable seats. The design was authentic and comfortable. When Gu Xijiu was in the carriage, she felt calm, as though she had just returned to her bedroom in her comfort zone.
There were many gifts there. As a courtesy, most of the presents were very precious; others were some of the rarest treasures once could ever find. However, Tian Jiyue’s gift was the only thoughtful one. It might not be as precious as her other gifts, but it was truly her favorite. Gu Xijiu really liked the carriage!
She got out from the carriage and thanked Tian Jiyue again. She had to show him how much she liked the gift.
Tian Jiyue was relieved. “I am glad that you like it.”
Tian Jiyue was not only a celestial master, he was also an expert in making exquisite crafts. He must have isolated himself for some time to make the carriage.
Gu Xijiu was a little touched by his kind gesture. Although Gu Xijiu was not very close with Tian Jiyue, he had always been very kind to her. He had a heart of gold, even though he seldom smiled. He was also a very caring man.
Di Fuyi stood aside and watched their interaction. He had not spoken with Gu Xijiu ever since he came. Briefly, she thanked him once, and that was all. She did not even bother to look at him after that.
She was indeed a woman with an outburst of enthusiasm. When she loved someone, she would love him entirely. When she decided to give up on a relationship, she would give it up entirely, too. He would be nothing but another pa.s.ser-by to her.
Di Fuyi looked away and tried to hide the pain in his eyes. He coughed. “Miss Gu, I have a gift for you too.”
He made a hand sign, and Mu Feng unwillingly came forward to present her a purple wooden box. In the box lied a Ganoderma that must be at least five hundred years old, which was a very valuable herb.
The gift was an appropriate one. A gift as valuable as that must be coming from someone as n.o.ble as him, but it was not a very spectacular one as compared to Tian Jiyue’s.
The crowd was a little disappointed upon seeing Di Fuyi’s gift. They expected more from Celestial Master Zuo. They thought that the gift from a mysterious man must be a unique one, but it was nothing special. They started to feel bad for Gu Xijiu.
After all, Gu Xijiu was the one who settled the incident for him with regards to the fake Celestial Master Zuo. She had even saved the four messengers and expiated the tens of thousands of sorrowful soul at the Wall of Sorrows. She fought hard battles and wiped out the disgrace from Celestial Master Zuo’s name. Celestial Master Zuo had certainly owed her a debt of grat.i.tude, so this was exactly the time for him to show her some appreciation.
