Venerated Venomous Consort
chapter-2157

Di Fuyi squinted at the clan leader’s comment. He thought that this matter was not that simple!

“What identity did you have before you entered the valley and got trapped?”

The old patriarch was shocked. He did not expect Di Fuyi to ask this question. “Huh?”

Di Fuyi quietly stared at him and did not speak.

The old patriarch was nervous under Di Fuyi’s intense gaze. He sighed. “Why did you ask this question?”

“I need to know the truth.” He knew too little about this world, so he needed to increase his knowledge.

The old patriarch was the only one who survived among the trapped people. Although he looked like everyone else, Di Fuyi had sharp eyes that could identify that he was different from the others. For example, other people were rougher, and the way they talked was more direct merely because they did have an adequate education.

The old patriarch’s speech was somewhat literary, and his style of work also had a demeanor of a nobleman. Obviously, he had been well educated.

Di Fuyi’s inquiry clearly evoked the memories of the old patriarch. He sighed and said, “Actually, there is nothing to hide. I was once the son of the owner of Luo Hua City. During the time, I came here for hunting with a few friends and some family servants. However, I didn’t expect that…” He did not expect to be trapped and forced to be rooted in this place.

Fortunately, when they came hunting, they brought a lot of female servants. After being trapped, many of them were married and had kids. Gradually, they developed into a village. However, the maids they brought were not highly educated and did not even know how to read. This carried on to the next generation. Most of them were trained to hunt as their primary job. As a result, after they had developed for centuries, their descendants had lived like the primitive.

Di Fuyi sized him up. “What level of spiritual power had you achieved before you were trapped?”

“Level six.” The old patriarch sighed. He was considered a master in the past, and that was the reason he could become the clan leader.

“How much spiritual power do you have now?”

“Nothing at all.”

“Did the aristocrats in the Luo Hua City often come to this mountain to hunt?”

“Yes, in the past, this place was full of majestic beings. Everyone hunted majestic beings and used it for their own use. This mountain was the hunting grounds of the nobleman.”

Di Fuyi wandered around this place. The old patriarch looked at him and did not know what he was looking for.

Gu Xijiu also studied the terrain nearby, to ensure that no dangerous beasts were lurking. When she saw Di Fuyi wandering around, she paused and went over. “What are you looking for? Why aren’t you resting?”

Di Fuyi looked at her quietly for a moment. “Finally you want to talk to me.”

Gu Xijiu was speechless. Because of the death of the eight elders, she felt guilty in her heart. She was upset with Di Fuyi because she felt that he was the reason that they decided to sacrifice themselves. Although rationally she understood that she should not blame Di Fuyi, emotionally, she felt a bit irritated and did not want to talk to him.

Besides, she also knew that Di Fuyi was exhausted and needed to rest; so, she ran away and arranged other things.
