Gu Ruoyun’s heart instantly skipped a beat. She looked at the spiritual weapon in her hands in astonishment. It took a long time before she recovered her senses.

　　So, what Zixie meant was that from now on, as long as I wished for it, I could have as many spiritual weapons as I wanted? She mused.

　　Even on the East Peak Mainland, spiritual weapons were extremely rare. Furthermore, this was on the West Spirit Mainland which was much poorer in resources if compared to the East Peak Mainland.

　　In the Weapon Refining Sect, only the Sect Master held a low ranked spiritual weapon and yet, he kept it hidden away like a great treasure.

　　If I could forge an unlimited number of spiritual weapons… What did this mean? She wondered. That means that in the near future, I would have an extremely strong team!

　　“There’s not much time, little girl,” Zixie ruffled Gu Ruoyun’s hair. A trace of worry appeared in his violet eyes, “You have to grow as fast as you can, for the recovery of my strength is dependent on your growth.”

　　“Zixie…” Gu Ruoyun raised her head to look upon Zixie’s handsome face. She bit her lip and asked, “Who is your enemy? And what enemy am I supposed to face in the future?”

　　Zixie lowered his head and smiled at the girl in front of him, “There are some things that I am unable to tell you just yet, little girl but I can give you a promise. When you return to the East Peak Mainland and avenge your mother and brother from your previous life, I’ll tell you everything.”

　　Gu Ruoyun froze upon hearing this, “Alright, I’ll have my revenge soon! When the time comes, tell me everything you know, including Qianbei Ye’s identity.”

　　“I promise.”

　　The smile on Zixie’s face grew deeper. He did not realize it, but those violet eyes began to fill with an intention to pamper her.

　　…

　　Just as she had left the Ancient Divine Pagoda, Gu Ruoyun felt a warm breath on her face. Instantly, her heart was gripped with alarm. She quickly opened her eyes and threw a punch without even looking.

　　Peng!

　　The punch hit him directly in the eye. The culprit squatted down pitifully in a corner, his tear-filled eyes fixed in a stare full of accusations as if Gu Ruoyun had committed an unspeakable crime to him.

　　However, when accompanied by that exceptionally beautiful face, his look of pity was simply a feast for the eyes. Not even the words ‘devastatingly beautiful’ would be enough to describe his startling beauty.

　　Of course, first, you would have to ignore the black eye on the left…

　　“Xiao Ye?”

　　Gu Ruoyun blinked, “What’s happened to your eye?”

　　What happened to my eye? Was it not her handiwork? Qianbei Ye thought.

　　Qianbei Ye pouted like an unhappy little wife, “I came to wake you up, but…”

　　Gu Ruoyun suddenly recalled throwing the punch. She rubbed her nose, feeling a little embarrassed, “Sorry, I didn’t know that it was you! By the way, why didn’t you dodge the punch instead?”

　　“Dodge?” Qianbei Ye frowned, “I don’t know how to dodge.”

　　“Uh…”

　　“I only know how to fight back.”

　　Qianbei Ye then raised his head to look at Gu Ruoyun.

　　Perhaps the word ‘dodge’ did not exist in his mind, so he would not know how to do such a thing. In his mind, he would kill whoever dared to harm him, so why would he ever need to dodge?

　　“Then why didn’t you fight back?”

　　Gu Ruoyun asked, a little confused. Seeing the power that Qianbei Ye had shown when he had killed Ling Yi so easily, she would not have been able to harm even a single strand of hair on his head if he did not wish it.

　　Qianbei Ye thought for a while, then shook his head and said, “I couldn’t fight back. I can’t control my strength when I fight back. It might have hurt you.”

　　So, he had willingly taken my punch? Gu Ruoyun was flabbergasted. She opened her mouth to speak, but did not know what to say…
