CHAPTER 672: CHAPTER 672: DEEPLY ROOTED AFFECTION (117)

"I don’t talk about age, I’ve always felt very young," he said calmly, "Over 250,000 years old."

Gu Lili was shocked, staring at him, "What about the sister of Immortal Venerable?"

"My sister is 15 years older than me."

"I heard that my niece Xiangyi is about to marry Xu Mohan, the third brother of Long Chan. This does indeed involve familial relationships."

"It’s said to be a marriage alliance." Gu Lili naturally wouldn’t say much in front of him, "Does Immortal Venerable have a marital match?"

"Without finding my sister’s Primordial Spirit, I’m not in the mindset for marriage." His gaze was resolute.

"Immortal Venerable deeply cherishes the sibling affection with the Goddess."

"My sister raised me." He looked into her eyes, "So she is my dearest kin."

Gu Lili felt strangely at ease talking to him, sensing no airs about him, and his tone was very warm, unlike the Immortal Venerables of the Heavenly Clan.

"Immortal Venerable could visit the Netherworld King to check the Book of Life and Death, which I heard contains life records across reincarnations."

"I have checked before, but at that time, my sister hadn’t reincarnated, so it was essentially untraceable, and that was an exception made by Netherworld King himself. Now, if I were to ask again, Netherworld King surely wouldn’t grant me this favor. As for you, I think it would be quite easy for you to check your true self, since you’ve reincarnated. Let Long Chan request the Netherworld King, and find out who you originally were. Though it’s possible even if you ask, Netherworld King may not tell you, as the rules of the Book of Life and Death are strict, but rules are set by men, and I think this might be the quickest shortcut for you to know your identity."

"If the Netherworld King won’t even show you face, let alone me. It would be a waste to go." Gu Lili hoped, "I wish I could recall who I was just as I remember the memories of being sealed inside Li Mao."

While they were talking, Long Yubei arrived, "Welcome Immortal Venerable to City A."

"Please, have a seat."

The three had a casual chat for half an hour. On the way back, Gu Lili spoke calmly, "I feel when Immortal Jun Yu looks at me, even though he doesn’t speak, I can sense what he wants to say."

"Do you feel the same way when I look at you?"

"A bit, but we’ve known each other for a long time."

Long Yubei felt painfully jealous, "You’re not falling for him because he is an Immortal Venerable from the Heavenly Clan, are you? Considering him as one of the potential stepfathers for your child?"

"What liking him?! What candidate?! Are you insane?"

"Just be honest, are you attracted to him?"

"Nonsense!" Gu Lili really wanted to chop him dead with an axe, "Aren’t you overthinking? I mean, although it’s only our second meeting, I feel a certain rapport with him."

And when the word ’rapport’ came out, it only made things worse.

"Rapport?" Long Yubei couldn’t even force a smile anymore, he had come himself, feeling driving was too slow because he was uneasy about her.

And what happens?

She says she has a rapport with a man she just met twice?!

Sensing his upset demeanor, Gu Lili felt somewhat helpless, "Jealous?"

"No."

"Good then." She wasn’t sure if it was intentional or not, but she cracked open the window, letting in the cold air which sobered her up quite a bit.

After she finished speaking, there was no more discussion, but Long Yubei was extremely upset.

He drove the car to the parking lot of Long Group, "Come to my office."
