This person was like the sun. No matter where he went or what he did, he was shining and always attracted people's attention. He had certainly caught Gu Xijiu's eyes the entire time.
The pain of losing him hundreds of years ago always seemed very recent and vivid for Gu Xijiu. Nonetheless, watching him right in front of her had made everything different. She could not wait to get into his arms and travel to a place where they could have their personal, intimate time. Unfortunately, they had to settle the mess in front of them first.
Di Fuyi was a natural leader. He had been the Lord of the Lower Bound for nearly 10, 000 years. It had become a habit for him to take care of affairs. With the memories from his previous life restored, he would definitely use his knowledge to punish the bad people here and return the Shura World to its orderly state.
This came as a relief to Gu Xijiu. Although she only stayed there for more than a year, she had already regarded this place as one of her homes. She also wished that the people here could get back to their normal lives.
She had been thinking about how to restore the order here but could not seem to find a way to do so on her own. Nevertheless, it would seem that she had found the solution to her problem. Since Di Fuyi had returned to her side, she was certain that things would get sorted out swiftly.
Although Gu Xijiu was generally considered an independent person, whenever Di Fuyi was around her, she somehow always relied on him. She knew that she could depend on him for anything that she needed.
As she contemplated the situation she was now in, the two men remained busy fighting intensely in the wizardry barrier. For once, Gu Xijiu finally looked at Yun Yanli. She knew that he was a very capable fighter who had tricks up his sleeves. However, he was not Di Fuyi's opponent. In fact, she could tell that he would lose the battle sooner or later.
The man himself realized that he was bound to lose, and his face turned pale. He did not expect to be beaten by a child despite his many years of hard work. He was certainly sad to learn that, but there was nothing he could do about the inequality between them. He was just not as talented as his opponent.
Despite giving it his all, he did not even damage Di Fuyi's clothing. Nevertheless, he was a man of his word and would not run away. He would not stop until one of them was dead. Perhaps, he was simply not destined to win the battle and get the girl of his dreams.
As a last resort, he put together a flurry of attacks to try to hurt Di Fuyi and turn the tide into his favor. Even if he did not win, he should at least put up a real fight against this man who had taken everything from him.
This fierce battle generated a lot of excitement for the crowd. The people on both sides were very nervous to the point where it clearly affected their breathing. They did not even dare to blink their eyes as they were afraid that they would miss something special.
The people's attention was on the fight in the wizardry barrier that no one noticed that Zhu Duqing was quietly approaching Gu Xijiu. He was now only one foot away from her. He suddenly appeared and grabbed Gu Xijiu's wrist!
His speed was comparable to Gu Xijiu's teleportation, and there was no time for a reaction from the crowd. He thought that he would definitely capture her, so he said, "Xijiu, you have to follow me..." However, before he could finish his sentence, he was shocked by something and quickly retrieved his hand.
