Di Fuyi was unaware of what had happened to Gu Xijiu; he also had no idea how they had mistaken her gender, but he was sure about one thing: she was a woman. Smilingly, he swept his eyes across the men. “A man can, of course, be engaged to another man. Haven’t you heard of homosexuality?”

The crowd was bewildered. Gu Xijiu gave him a stern look in the eyes before responding coldly, “This is not the place to talk. Tie Dan, Tie Niu, and Gou Sheng, take the bodies and let us head back.”

“Yes, Brother Stone!” The men dispersed to collect the dead bodies on the ground.

Stone, Tie Dan, Tie Niu, and Gou Sheng were such down-to-earth names, which Di Fuyi had not heard of in a very long while. He looked at Gu Xijiu and still could not get his eyes away from her flat chest. Why did she conceal her gender and act like a man? Did she wrap her breasts with a thick cloth to flatten her chest? Had anyone told her that wrapping her chest was bad for her breasts?

“What are you looking at?” Frowningly, Gu Xijiu could tell that Di Fuyi was thinking about something improper.

Di Fuyi moved his eyes upward and fixed his gaze on her face instead. He really wanted to wash the paint off her face. Smilingly, he complimented, “Xijiu, you look just as beautiful!”

Gu Xijiu did not know what to answer.

“What a smooth tongue!” She had to use sarcasm to hide her delight. “You do not have to keep saying that. I am not Xijiu. I am Stone.”

“Hmm, Stone.” Di Fuyi was still happily smiling. “A name is only a name. You are still a rare, wonderful gem to me, even if you are a just a ‘Stone.’”

Gu Xijiu was, once again, speechless. To be frank, she did not like men with a smooth tongue, but Di Fuyi’s flirtation was within her tolerance. In fact, she started to enjoy it. She could not help but observe the man before him. He was very good looking, so much so that she began to fall for him. Somehow, she could feel a sense of familiarity around him.

“Let us talk when we get back!” She then left swiftly.

However, Di Fuyi grabbed her hand all of a sudden. “What are you doing again?” She turned around and looked at him.

Di Fuyi stayed by her side closely and said, “I am worried that the Phantom Beasts might appear again. I feel safer by your side.”

Gu Xijiu tried to let her hand go, but he was holding it too tightly. “Your Kung Fu is outstanding. The Phantom Beasts will not be able to do any harm to you,” she answered bitterly.

“I feel very disgusted to be surrounded by them.” Then, Di Fuyi pulled her close and continued, “My Kung Fu is good, and your skill in finding the leader of the beasts is amazing. We are a great match, so it is best to walk together.”

His palm was warm; when he held her in his hand, she could feel his warmth penetrating through her skin. His presence gave her heart a throb, an urge to stay in his arms. She did not like this uncontrollable feeling, so she let go of his hand. “Don’t worry; they will not be back anytime soon. The leader of the beasts will need at least a day to reborn. Without a leader, they will not take the risk to approach us, humans,” she reassured.

Di Fuyi did not expect that the little beast would come back alive in such a short time. What kind of place was this? He looked at the sky again, and the sun hung unsteadily in the sky as if it would fall and disappear any minute. Clouds were afloat in the air. To be specific, there were only dark clouds.

The clouds were all greyish like they were filled entirely with dust, reminding him of the fog in the modern days that his mother had once described to him.
