Venerated Venomous Consort

The Buddha Fire Land was a forbidden area that had been sealed. However, it could be opened from this Biwu Palace. Di Fuyi took Gu Xijiu along with her two spiritual beasts to the back garden. He personally checked the outfit again and the things she had on her. He prepared a lot of things for her. There were various magical weapons and different herbs and medicine to ensure her safety. Di Fuyi was very caring. He carefully examined all these things, again and again, to confirm that she brought everything with her.

The four messengers nearby and waited for the command of The Lord to open the door to the forbidden land.

“Xijiu, you should pay attention to everything. Your safety has to be the top priority. If you can’t find the Purple Cloud Mushroom, just head out. You can stay for a maximum of six days and not any longer…”

“Okay!” Gu Xijiu promised.

“Mussel, you have to use the ice protection technique to keep your shell cool. If there is a fire beast inside, you can resist it with your Wind Cracker Tactic…” Di Fuyi instructed.

The mussel had not taken any risks for a long time; it was excited. “Well, you will be impressed, My Lord!”

“Lu Wu, you are good at using fire. Your fire is different from the fire in the forbidden land. When you use your fire, you can…” Di Fuyi turned and told Lu Wu.

Lu Wu was actually a little intolerant. “My Lord, you have already told me about it.”

Gu Xijiu was like an arrow that was ready to fly. At this moment, she could not help but laugh at Di Fuyi’s excessive concern. “You don’t have to advise anymore. They can already memorize your words. You are so long-winded today.”

Di Fuyi went slightly stiff, but he immediately smiled and said, “Stupid, I’m just too concerned about you.”

“Well, I know you care about me, and that is why you are a bit panicked. Don’t worry; I promise that I will not only bring out the Purple Cloud Mushroom but also come back alive. It will be harmless! It is you that we need to be concerned about. You should rest and must not work anymore.” Gu Xijiu patted his shoulder and advised him.

Di Fuyi raised his arms and hugged her tightly. “I really can’t bear to let you go… I’m reluctant to let you go alone.”

His arm was warm, and it warmed Gu Xijiu’s heart. She smiled. “Well, if it allows men to go in, I will let you come with me.”

The mussel and Lu Wu were stunned. They looked at each other and asked softly, “Men are not allowed to enter? Master, My Lord, Lu Wu and I are both males…”

Di Fuyi faintly responded, “You are a beast. Even if you are a male, you are not a man. What are you afraid of?”

The mussel was silent.

Gu Xijiu patted his hand that was still holding her waist. “Well, the schedule is tight; I should go now. Let them open the door to the forbidden place.”

Di Fuyi kissed her lips. “Take care!” He released her and gestured to the four messengers.

The four messengers were also very anxious. They had already known the news of the Purple Cloud Mushroom from Gu Xijiu. They hoped that she could pick up the things as soon as possible so that their Lord could live forever.

The earlier she got it done, the better. Therefore, once they received the command, they immediately opened the secret door to the Buddha Fire Land. A large golden red aperture appeared in the air, and there seemed to be a raging fire inside.

It was very difficult to open this secret door, and would undoubtedly consume a lot of energy from the four messengers. It could not be opened for a long time, so Gu Xijiu did not dare to waste any time. She quickly pulled the mussel and Lu Wu and flew into the aperture. The moment she entered, she looked back and saw that Di Fuyi was standing there and watching her. However, Gu Xijiu could not see his facial expression as they were too far apart.
