At the entrance of the Fragrance Arts Trial Realm, there stood a young girl dressed in a green and white gown.
The girl had a delicate and cute doll-like face, but her expression and deanor exuded a strong sense of indifference and coolness. Her appearance clashed slightly with her temperant, yet there was a mysterious harmony to it.
Perhaps sensing Gu Zhiqi’s gaze, the girl slightly turned her head and glanced at Gu Zhiqi.
Upon clearly seeing Gu Zhiqi’s appearance, the girl paused slightly, a shade of evident amazent coloring her eyes.
While the girl was montarily dazed, Gu Zhiqi looked at her, gently raised an eyebrow, and spoke, "Ling Zhiyu?"
Ling Zhiyu paused again, and a few seconds later, she spoke with a cold and indifferent tone, "Do you know ?"
Seeing her reaction, Gu Zhiqi knew she hadn’t found the wrong person. Without answering Ling Zhiyu’s question, she simply said, "Is it convenient to talk privately?"
Ling Zhiyu listened and fell silent. A few seconds later, she nodded coldly and indifferently.
Then, Ling Zhiyu followed Gu Zhiqi out of the Trial Hall.
The Trial Tower stood on the plaza, with many trees planted around its periphery. Paths crisscrossed through the woods, but nearly everyone was gathered in the plaza; there were hardly any people in the woods. Gu Zhiqi led Ling Zhiyu to a small grove.
Once they reached a place where there was no one else, Gu Zhiqi stopped walking.
Seeing her stop, Ling Zhiyu imdiately spoke, "What do you want to talk about?"
Gu Zhiqi didn’t beat around the bush and directly asked, "Do you want to et your biological father?"
Ling Zhiyu heard this and was stunned.
Biological father?
Her biological father?
To be honest, Ling Zhiyu had never thought about this question.
She was picked up by her master, who brought her to the Immortal dical Alliance, gave her a na, and gave her a ho.
She grew up in the Immortal dical Alliance, parentless but fortunately because she had her master, she lived a rather happy life. There were many like her in the Immortal dical Alliance, without parents, so she had no expectations for parents.
When she was younger, she envied those with parents.
But...
She had grown up.
And had moved past the age of wanting parents.
She had no parents, but she had family: her master, her seniors, and the elders of the dical Alliance were all her family.
She thought she no longer needed parents.
Yet now, soone suddenly asked her if she wanted to et her father.
Honestly, she didn’t know.
After Gu Zhiqi asked, she didn’t speak further to disturb Ling Zhiyu, but waited for her answer.
Previously, she had promised Qi Rui to arrange a eting with his daughter. Based on the birth details Qi Rui provided, she deduced that Qi Rui’s daughter was Ling Zhiyu, residing in the Ancient Martial Arts World at the Immortal dical Alliance.
However, Qi Rui wanted to et his daughter, but Ling Zhiyu might not want to et him.
So she planned to first ask Ling Zhiyu for her thoughts.
If Ling Zhiyu didn’t want to et him, she would arrange for Qi Rui to see Ling Zhiyu from a distance. If Ling Zhiyu wanted to et, she would arrange for the two to et face to face.
"Do you know my biological father?" Ling Zhiyu remained silent for a long ti without finding an answer. Eventually, she only asked Gu Zhiqi this question.
Gu Zhiqi: "I’ve t him."
Upon hearing this, Ling Zhiyu paused for a few seconds and asked another question, "What kind of person is he?"
Gu Zhiqi shook her head, "Not familiar."
After hearing this, Ling Zhiyu once again fell silent.
Seeing Ling Zhiyu fall silent once more, Gu Zhiqi prompted her, "If you can’t decide today, I can give you ti, but there’s a deadline—before the 10th of this month."
Ling Zhiyu listened and let out a slight sigh of relief, finally saying to Gu Zhiqi, "I’ll think about it."
Gu Zhiqi nodded, "If you make up your mind, you can co find at the Yun Family. My na is Gu Zhiqi."
Saying this, Gu Zhiqi left.
Ling Zhiyu didn’t say anything, she just stood there in a daze.
