That was ruthless, but of course, Mu Feng did not say it out; he mumbled silently.

The Lord glimpsed at him. "Have you truly loved someone before?"

Mu Feng was speechless. He felt like he had been shocked at a high voltage!

The Lord got up and took a glance around. He has been staying in Celestial Master Zuo's mansion for a few decades; it was the time to demolish it.

"Mu Feng, dismiss everyone in the mansion; we don't need them anymore."

Mu Feng paused before answering, "Yes!"

The Lord turned around and left. Mu Feng looked around too; suddenly, he did not feel good inside.

When The Lord decided to give up an identity, he would also destroy everything that belonged to that identity. For example, the mansion, the servants, and his friends.

Now, it was time to demolish Celestial Master Zuo's mansion.

There were not many people left in Celestial Master Zuo's mansion because most of them were dead from the incident caused by the counterfeit. Thus, less than 20 percent of them survived. Besides that, Di Fuyi was extremely busy since he returned from the forbidden land. Hence, he did not recruit any more servants because he hardly stayed at home.

Mu Feng was thinking to start the recruitment again when his Lord settled down. However, it seemed to be unnecessary now as he even needed to dismiss the current ones.

Compared to Celestial Master Zuo's mansion, Gu Xijiu's mansion was extremely happening and crowded these days.

Many people came to congratulate her.

Gu Xijiu would courteously meet them if she were free. However, she would also reject them outright when she was busy.

She received news the next day after the test for the heaven's gift disciple that Celestial Master Zuo had tendered his resignation letter as Celestial Master Zuo to His Majesty and none of the imperial officers or the emperor managed to keep him in his position.

Gu Xijiu was having a drink with her friends when she got the news. She was stunned for a second as she held the glass. However, she did not express any opinion.

Gu Xijiu's friends always felt it was unfair for Celestial Master Zuo to betray her. Thus everyone applauded and cheered when they heard the news. They even claimed that Celestial Master Zuo must be jealous of her being too strong to the point where she even surpassed him; hence, he decided to resign.

"Xijiu, he must be very jealous since The Lord prioritizes you very much now."

"What's there to be jealous about? It's normal for new people to replace old ones. It's time for him to make way for others."

"Xijiu, you must try harder. You must show him your abilities and let him know you can compete with him or be even better than him!"

Many were laughing and judging, and all of them thought the brat deserved the karma of being replaced.

Gu Xijiu continued sipping her drinks after a short idle. Casually, she said, "Perhaps, he doesn't even care about this…"

It seemed that he decided to give up the identity of Di Fuyi.

He wanted to get rid of everything related to Di Fuyi. The power, the status, and even the relationship.

He was just like a professional actor, and 'Di Fuyi' was the character he needed to play. All the emotions of the character would have to go as the script ended. He retreated handsomely and would not leave a space for this character in his heart. Unfortunately, she fell in love with the character in the drama.

Who would he be after he gave up the identity of Celestial Master Zuo Would he use another identity? Anyway, she had nothing to do with this man anymore.

She remembered Mu Feng once mentioned that The Lord would change his identity once in a while. However, no one would remember him again when he changed his identity except the four messengers.

She lifted her hand and finished the cold wine. When she was about to say something, the directed audio spell at her waist suddenly blinked.

She picked up the call at a quiet corner, and her face immediately changed after she listened to the first two phrases!
