Venerated Venomous Consort
chapter-865

Gu Xijiu looked at him, "So?" She admitted his question indirectly.

"What did you do last night?" He asked again.

Gu Xijiu frowned, "This has nothing to do with you, I guess? This is my personal matter and I don't feel like telling anyone."

Di Fuyi was speechless.

Her handsome face looked upset, he casually said, "Don't worry, I'm not trying to set any restriction but your personal matter has affected your studies. Since you didn't come up here on your own, then accept the penalty. Come here and fly up to the cliff with Flying Wind magic ten times after your class. No rest before you do it ten times!"

No one spoke a word.

Everyone was shocked.

The Flying Wind magic consumed a lot of spiritual power especially when they were just newbies for this new magic, that would consume even more of their spiritual power.

Even the students with six and a half spiritual power or above felt tired after flying once - they would probably die from exhaustion if they were to fly ten times!

And it was already so difficult for Gu Xijiu to get up here once, let alone about ten times!?

Was she going to try until the next morning?! I doubt her physical condition could bear it...

Indeed, Celestial Master Zuo was insane when he decided to punish someone! No one should skip his class as they could not afford to pay the price!

Of course, Gu Xijiu also knew it. It was likened to a boiling wave splashing in her heart but she suppressed it! She smiled and said, "Fine!"

The harsher the punishment, the firmer her decision would be in order to cut all the knots between them!

Di Fuyi was sad as he looked into her eyes.

He wondered whether he had crossed the line.

...

Gu Xijiu was the kind of person who would do whatever she was supposed to do, regardless of what kind of plan she had in her mind.

For example, she would complete all the tasks before the end of her service period if she had decided to resign.

After the last lesson of the day, she quickly rushed to the cliff for her penalty right after her dinner.

Initially, Lan Waihu and Qian Lingyu wanted to follow suit but Gu Xijiu did not allow it. She told them with a smile, "I'll feel stressed if you come with me. Besides that, I really don't want you to see my embarrassed face. Don't follow me if you regard me as a friend ok? Do me a favor, please?"

Thus, Lan Waihu and Qian Lingyu did not tag along but reminded her, "Take care of yourself, don't stress yourself out ok?"

"Gu Xijiu nodded, "Don't worry, I treasure my life very much, I'll be fine."

Qian Lingyu was still worried. He stuffed a tube of fireworks to her, told her to burn it and if she had nearly fainted from exhaustion, he would rush over to help her.

Gu Xijiu agreed and left.

Qian Lingyu sent her off by watching but he planned to check on her once every four hours as he was worried that she might be eaten by the beasts if she had fainted without anyone knowing.

In fact, there were many ferocious beasts around the cliff.

Gu Xijiu had finally come to the bottom of the cliff and she realized Di Fuyi was there. He was wearing a purple robe and it was fluttering in the wind.

Gu Xijiu was shocked when she saw him, but eventually, she knew he was here to inspect her...

"Celestial Master Zuo." She greeted as she bowed.

Tianju Hall prioritized courtesy very much and that was a common courtesy among students and teachers which had nothing to do with their personal identity.
