Gu Xijiu frowned.

Mo Yuyan looked subtly different and coughed, "This is the message which the celestial master wanted me to deliver."

"Where’s your celestial master?" Gu Xijiu asked to pick on her.

"Celestial master is busy verifying the disciple who received the heaven gift. By right, that Open Heaven Stage can only be opened once per month but Miss Gu suddenly disappeared on that day and thus, the test had failed. Celestial master had planned to open the stage again tomorrow so he has to prepare right now."

Gu Xijiu, "…" So, it looks like he still wanted to test her!

And there she thought he was moved by his conscience and did not want to place her in a difficult position anymore!

He put her under house arrest, just to prepare for the test tomorrow…

Gu Xijiu clearly knew that her kungfu was adopted from what she learned in the modern era and was nothing related to the heaven gift.

If that Open Heaven Gate was truly working, it would definitely prove that she was a phony!

By that time, she would have to receive punishment and she could only wait for her death!

Gu Xijiu did not know the settings that the Fucang Palace had because she could only use her teleportation technique partially.

Partially meant she could teleport for about ten meters, provided she was not blocked by any obstacles. Otherwise, she would bang into a wall or a tree.

Such partialness was actually comparable to a brilliant Qing Gong, but she was not considered remarkable at Fucang Palace which was filled with masters.

Celestial Master Zuo did not explain the origin of Gu Xijiu to the people in the palace. He only mentioned that her surname was Gu and that she was very crafty. He also ordered them to look after her and it would be their fault if she managed to run away!

There was a total of 36 girls and 36 attendants on duty at Fucang Palace. Though their kungfu was not as good as the eight bodyguards of Celestial Master Zuo, they were still very proficient. With the additional special defense system of Fucang Palace, even the overlords of the three clans could not escape if they were arrested here!

Such a case where Celestial Master Zuo carried her back himself and decorated the room specially for her, was certainly not seen before.

The people in the palace sighed because the strange aesthetic standard of their palace master while serving her wholeheartedly. Of course, they were watching over her to make sure that she did not escape…

Gu Xijiu could move freely within Fucang Palace but absolutely could not go out of the palace gates. Besides, she would be followed wherever she went - even when she was in the toilet, she was guarded from outside.

Mo Yuyan felt that this fat squire was very energetic. As soon as she woke up, she would wander around Fucang Palace without any rest, apart from having only her two meals.

"What place is that?" Gu Xijiu pointed towards the antique, hexagonal, white little building with her fat hand.

"That’s the study room of the celestial master." The follower, Mo Yuyan explained.

With a turn, Gu Xijiu had got to the front door of that hexagonal, white little building. Before Mo Yuyan could say anything to stop her, she had already pushed the door open and entered.

In the building, everything was very clean; the decorations, the bookshelves and the desk were all spick and span…

This was the book collection of the celestial master. Many were either unique copies or rare copies of books. Therefore, they could be sold with a high price if the books here were to be taken out." Mo Yuyan explained from behind.

Gu Xijiu nodded her head and said, "Then, all of you are lucky to be able to read his books."

Mo Yuyan shook her head, "No, we cannot just read these books unless we did something good. Only then, will the palace master allow us to choose a book to read for an hour."

It was this strict?! As expected, it was just like his perverse characteristics!

Gu Xijiu looked at the door unlocked and found out that there were no guards at all. Were these servants so obedient?
