Why Didn’t He Avoid The Strike?

Gu Xijiu did not know what to say. The conversation only made her more frustrated. How could he lie to her in such a vicious way, all because he liked her? How could he use her loss of memory as an excuse to lie to her? Did he even really like her? He was making use of her misfortune to serve his own ends.

She hated it most when people lied to her, especially if it came from people that she really trusted. Before she saw Di Fuyi, she was still hoping that everything Yun Yanli told her was a lie. She hoped that Di Fuyi was the truthful one. Unfortunately, she would end up disappointed. 

She tried to suppress her anger before it took over her senses. Her aura grew stronger each passing moment. "Are you Celestial Master Zuo? Were you Huang Tu, who used to be the Lord?"

The moment she asked the question, she immediately held her breath in a desperate wait for his answer. After a brief moment of silence, Di Fuyi finally confessed, "No."
