Although the population size had shrunk dramatically, it was still difficult to find Di Fuyi.

“Xijiu, I suspect that Di Fuyi has returned to the Upper Bound.”

When Yun Yanli said this sentence, he and Gu Xijiu were in Sui Ye City. It had been more than a year since Di Fuyi went missing. Gu Xijiu had traveled to nine cities in this continent to the point where her footprints could be found throughout the Shura World.

If Di Fuyi were still in the Shura World, he would undoubtedly enter one of the cities because of the blood rain. Additionally, he would only stay in luxurious accommodation due to his nature. Thus, every time Gu Xijiu entered a city, she would find all the inns that looked posh in the town and searched every room.

Except for the inn in Luo Hua City where he once lived, she could not find any trail of him elsewhere. No one seemed to have seen or heard of him either. This person had completely disappeared! There was no trace of him at all, which made it seem like he never even came here in the first place.

“Di Fuyi, from now on, you will walk your path, and I will have my own path. I will never want to see you again!” This was what she once said to him, and she never saw him again after that. Sui Ye City was the last city that Gu Xijiu explored. The city was bustling with crowds, but Di Fuyi was nowhere to be seen.

Quite a number of things happened this year. Gu Xijiu had contributed a lot of spiritual crystals to the owner of Luo Hua City, so Ye Ling had been treating her people well. They were arranged to have good jobs and were also placed in good houses. They also had good meals. It was safe to say that the villagers had finally settled down in Luo Hua City.

Since Gu Xijiu did not have to worry about them anymore, she spent most of her time this year traveling the Shura World in search of someone. Half a year ago, she had returned to Luo Hua City, and she heard the news that Ye Ling’s wife, the co-owner of Luo Hua City, had died of illness. Gu Xijiu had heard that she was the orchestrator behind the scenes who was very capable. To avoid causing a panic among the people, Ye Ling concealed the death of his wife until five months had passed.

In those five months, the people in the city were still living peacefully and had not experienced any significant changes. Gu Xijiu did not pay much attention to the matter. After all, Madam Yun had been living alone, and she did not know her at all. Having analyzed the situation, it seemed that Madam Yun passed away half a month after the disappearance of Di Fuyi.

Meanwhile, Gu Xijiu managed to obtain an ample amount of spiritual crystals and managed to restore part of her spiritual power. She now possessed a level eight spiritual power. Not many people in the Shura World could challenge her. Furthermore, with her improved abilities, she was now able to quickly kill any beasts that carried second-grade spiritual crystals with them. Coupled with her teleportation skill, no one dared to mess with her.

Yun Yanli had accompanied her closely since Di Fuyi’s sudden disappearance. Of course, he occasionally had his own private affairs. However, he would always reconnect with her as soon as he sorted his issues out.

Time passed by briskly as they searched for Di Fuyi. Nonetheless, every time Gu Xijiu entered a new city, she would do so with hope. Needless to say, her hope turned into disappointment at every turn.

It was now near noon, so the two found a restaurant to sit and have a meal. The currency used in the Shura World was not gold or silver; instead, the citizens had to exchange spiritual crystals for paper noted that were accepted in the city. Gu Xijiu had hunted more than enough spiritual crystal, so naturally, she changed a lot of paper notes. No matter where she went, she did not need to worry about money.
