That five months were uneventful.
The Haoyue Kingdom had rebuilt their kingdom. Their land was initially occupied by the Zhaoyang Kingdom and the Feixing Kingdom, but under The Lord’s order, both kingdoms gave up a large part of their land. Although the land that the Haoyue Kingdom received was not as big as before, building up a kingdom became possible again.
Qian Lingyu was appointed as the emperor of the Haoyue Kingdom on the basis of his strong family background. Besides that, Qian Lingyu was influential at Tianju Hall and had a good relationship with Gu Xijiu. Hence, the people and royals of the Haoyue Kingdom would oblige. To add to the fact that he was appointed by The Lord, his orders were followed, without opposition.
The Haoyue Kingdom almost got ruined once. It had been deserted until its recent rebirth. As a result, Qian Lingyu was extremely busy. Although he did not clearly understand the ethics of an emperor, he was smart, and his family was full of strategists who would plan for him. He was also hardworking and willing to learn; hence, it was also improbable for him to be a failed emperor. Besides that, all battles had subsided and the people were finally able to rest at ease.
Over the past five months, Gu Xijiu never got to meet Di Fuyi. It was as if he had disappeared without a trace. Although she did not get to meet him, Gu Xijiu had become reputable over the past few months, almost diminishing that of Celestial Master Zuo. Wherever Gu Xijiu went, there would be a huge welcome.
When the people encountered a problem, they would no longer think of Di Fuyi. In fact, had no one deliberately mentioned him, no one would even think of him. That was how the world worked. If a person were unable to be substituted by someone, the people would never forget him or her. However, if someone else could replace that person, with time, they would be gradually disappearing in the people’s hearts.
Gu Xijiu was very busy every single day so the five months almost passed without notice. It was as if she had stepped out of the gloom of the relationship. She had been meeting one friend after another. Sometimes, she even went out for a respite in the countryside with her friends.
She no longer failed to fall asleep. She slept well, and could mostly sleep soundly until the break of dawn. Of course, she needed to sleep in the white jade carriage, as she would have insomnia being elsewhere.
There was no insurmountable obstacle in the world, and there was nothing which time could not bring away. Luo Zhanyu was pleased seeing Gu Xijiu’s change.
Even after being betrayed, she pulled herself together. She could be thinking of living a good life to prove to the heartbreaker that she could be without him, and she could live well without him.
Gu Xijiu was now focused on improving herself. She knew that she should build up her influence. Under her support, Baili Ce started leading the Yinshi clan; and the laborers within the clan were the people she had brought out of the prohibited area.
The senior masters were of level nine and above. As a result, many were eager to learn from them. Within only a couple of months, they had received a few hundred apprentices, hence becoming a very well-known group. In time, that group would be able to exert its authority over other large groups.
Although the Yinshi clan’s Overlord was Baili Ce, everyone’s invisible boss was still Gu Xijiu. They would always ask for her decision at critical times. This clan was the group most loyal to Gu Xijiiu and was the most reliable support for her.
