"What about the love bracelet? Can it come back to my current body?"

Di Fuyi could not help but sigh. "It is just a bracelet. If you really like it, I will get you a better one. I am sure it will be even nicer than the previous one."

How could that be the same? That was a love bracelet, it is more important than an engagement ring! Even if it was just a normal glass, it would be irreplaceable in Gu Xijiu's heart!

"I do not care! I want to go back to that body! That is the real me…"

"Xijiu, we both know that is not yours…" Di Fuyi slowly added, "It belongs to the daughter of the Gu family."

Gu Xijiu paused as she ran out of words. "But… but she has passed away. The Firmament Stone told me that it now belongs to me since I have avenged her death."

Di Fuyi sighed. "The Firmament Stone is not completely reliable. In fact, each body can only accommodate one soul. It is harmful to your soul if you reluctantly invade the body which was once accommodated by another soul. Besides that, you would not be able to fully utilize the dexterity of the body. For example, Mo Zhao had once possessed Rong Che's body, although he finally got the body, there was a restriction no matter how hard he practiced. His soul was trapped in the body and his spiritual power declined. That was the reason he got Long Fan to make a new body for him."

Gu Xijiu did not expect there to be so many complicated theories when it comes to metaphysics. She personally found it mysterious as she frowned. "But I was totally fine when I used it and I even practiced with it until it shone bright like a star…"

"That was because your soul is powerful. Xijiu, if you had this body earlier, perhaps, you might have achieved a spiritual power of level nine by now."

Gu Xijiu felt that something was not right but she could not tell what it was at the moment, "But…" She paused and finally, she recalled. "This is not my body as well, it was cloned by Long Fan…"

"No, this is yours. Your current body perfectly matches your soul as it was specially customized for you. It's first master is you! Given that, it is just like a newborn baby…"

Gu Xijiu smiled awkwardly. "So, you mean I am originally a clone and a cloned body suits me best?"

God knows how much she hated clones! God knows how much she wished that she had a physical body which belonged to her. A real human body, given by her parents, instead of being a clone...

Di Fuyi seemed to sense that she was hurt from hearing those words. He pulled her back into his arms and let her lean against him. "Don't take things too personally, whether it is a clone or a normal body, it is just a shell. You should be happy since you have two options."

Gu Xijiu rubbed her brows as she felt that the world is full of mysteries.

Before she came to this era, she was a free thinker and an assassin. However, in less than a year's time since she came here, she was already looking for a better body for her soul. Buddhists always mentioned that the physical body is just a useless shell, the soul is the important element. Now, she literally felt it.

Yet… Perhaps, she was not intelligent enough as she still wanted her original body. After all, she still felt that that body suits her the best, it was even better than the cloned body which she had when she was an assassin...
