Di Fuyi had not used this power in front of anyone before. Hence, the little girl probably did not recognize it. His identity should still be intact.
Gu Xijiu took a breath and struggled out from his embrace again. She looked out of the cave and asked, "Why is the lightning targeting me?"
Di Fuyi guessed, "Probably because you ate the Blue Phoenix?"
Gu Xijiu was annoyed, "But you’re the one who grilled it, the lightning should strike you instead!"
Di Fuyi sighed, "The lightning is probably afraid of me. Although I'm the one who grilled the bird, you're the one who ate an essential part of it. If the heavens were to punish someone, I'm the murderer, and you're the accessory offender…"
Gu Xijiu twitched her mouth, "I just ate a pair of wings, and I didn’t do it intentionally. It’s not fair though! There’s a saying that one is not considered guilty if she didn't know the truth behind the crime…"
"You also ate a pair of thighs." Di Fuyi reminded her.
