c: You Have Talked Too Much

The woman in white’s voice sounded very sinister.
Nevertheless, Gu Xijiu heaved a sigh and ignored her.
She looked at her son first to check on him and felt relieved.
Next, she glanced at Fan Qianshi, who was also watching her. The two looked at each other for a moment before Gu Xijiu decided to look away.
The sight of the man was enough to send discomfort to her stomach.
Apparently, the man that she had wanted to kill all this while was her apprentice in her past life! It seemed that she used to care about this apprentice in her previous life, and she had undoubtedly sacrificed a lot for him.
The revelation struck her like a thunderbolt!
Nonetheless, it was evident that the catastrophic thunderbolts from the illusion were far worse than the one she imagined right now.
Too many things were revealed in such a short period of time that she had not been able to digest everything. She had not had time to think clearly about the situation and could not be bothered with Fan Qianshi for now.
Then, her gaze returned to the woman in white. In the illusion, this demon was just a pale shadow; even her facial features were not fully formed. But now, she looked exactly like Gu Xijiu in her past life and carried an auspicious aura around her as though she was the G.o.d of Creation. However, it was clear that the aura she carried was tinged with dark magic. Its magical power was already at its peak, so Gu Xijiu was not considered as its opponent in her current state.
“How many years have you been locked up in this desert?” Gu Xijiu suddenly asked.
The demon was stunned and did not seem to expect that question to come first since Gu Xijiu had seen so much of her past. It was already amazed by the fact that she could maintain her composure. However, the question seemed rather irrelevant, given that there were much bigger problems at hand.
The woman in white stepped closer to Gu Xijiu as she asked, “Are you not afraid?” Her voice was cold.
Gu Xijiu replied, “Will it help if I am afraid?”
To which the demon laughed. “Indeed, it is useless. Your skills are not as good as mine now, and you are in my territory. Other than accepting your fate, there is no way out for you!”
The woman drew closer to Gu Xijiu, and the magical aura around the body felt immensely cold. Gu Xijiu could feel the cold despite being some distance away; she felt as though a snake had wrapped itself around her.
Intuitively, she took a step back and secretly utilized her martial arts to circulate warmth around her body. In just a moment, the coldness was forced out of her body.
Meanwhile, the demons sized her up as though she could see through the flesh of her victims.
After a while, she laughed. “You are just a little immortal that has been cultivating for 100 years. I didn’t expect you to reincarnate into such a weak being.”
Gu Xijiu also laughed, but her voice was cold when she replied, “Even if I am weak, I am in my original body. No matter how strong you are, you are just an inner demon. As far as I know, no matter how strong an inner demon is, it would not be stronger than the person in its original body and cannot do anything to destroy the original body.”
The demon’s facial expression changed at once as it coldly said, “Stop dreaming! Do you think I am just your inner demon?!”
She raised her sleeves and continued, “I am no longer just the demon who you tricked and drew out from your body in the past! In fact, I will get back everything that I have lost in that year! Including your current husband, Di Fuyi! I love him the most! I turned into a demon because of him, but he actually married you, a woman who is so weak! You don’t deserve him! You didn’t deserve him even in your previous life.”
Gu Xijiu was speechless.
Why did everyone like her husband so much?
Even this demonic being was actually his fangirl.
Gu Xijiu smiled slightly, and she answered, “It’s good that you like him.”
The demon stared at her as she asked, “Are you not jealous?”
Gu Xijiu responded leisurely, “There are too many women who like him. If I am jealous of everyone, I will become the queen of jealousy! However, when many women like him, it proves that he is good enough to be my husband and also proves that my taste is very good; I am pleased.”
