Conferred Gods: Master Tongtian is my master

Chapter 300 The Eve of Parting

In Xiqi, deep in the Xibohou Mansion, there is a quaint and elegant study hidden.

The sunlight shines through the delicate window lattices, casting patches of light into the house, adding a touch of warmth to this quiet space.

Ji Fa, at this moment, was sitting at the desk with a serious expression on his face, his eyes fixed on the letter in his hand written by his father Ji Chang.

The letter paper is yellowed, but the ink is still fresh, and the words reveal an indescribable heaviness and urgency.

Jifa's brows were furrowed, and his eyes were flashing with complex emotions.

He read the letter slowly, and every word hit his heart like a hammer.

After reading it, he was silent for a long time, as if he was digesting the contents of the letter, or making an important decision.

Finally, he took a deep breath, turned around and looked at the guard standing respectfully beside him, his voice steady and powerful:

"Give orders to prepare the carriage and horses, and bring Dr. Lu from the mansion with you to go to Sishui Pass with me later."

"Yes, son!"

The guards took the order and left in a hurry, not daring to delay for even a moment.

The study fell into silence again, leaving Jifa alone.

After a while, Jifa adjusted his mood, put the letter away properly, and left the study.

He walked through the winding corridors and came to a quiet courtyard in the mansion.

Before entering the courtyard, he deliberately adjusted his mood and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he wanted to temporarily put all his worries behind him.

As he slowly walked into the courtyard, the scene before him warmed his heart.

A stunningly beautiful woman was sitting on a stone chair, holding an exquisite round fan in her hand and gently fiddling with it, as if she was enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

Her face is as beautiful as a flower, her figure is graceful, and every move she makes reveals an indescribable elegance and nobility.

In Jifa's eyes, this scene looked like a beautiful painting.

The worries and uneasiness in his heart were instantly warmed by this picture, and all his troubles seemed to disappear at this moment.

At this time, the woman seemed to notice someone coming in. She turned around gently and saw Ji Fa, who had a tall figure and handsome face.

A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, she smiled brightly, stood up and greeted Ji Fa who was coming towards her.

"Jifa, why are you here? Didn't you send someone to tell me that you had something to deal with in the study?"

Her voice is soft and pleasant, like the sound of nature.

Ji Fa reached out and embraced this beautiful woman - Su Daji. He smiled and replied:

"It feels like a long time since we last met, Daji. I have something to tell you."

That’s right, this beautiful lady is none other than the nine-tailed fox ‘Su Daji’.

Relying on Su Daji's appearance and her own advantages, she successfully captured Ji Fa and entered the Xibohou Mansion after Ji Chang rebelled against Shang.

Su Daji leaned on Ji Fa and said in a tender voice:

"What's going on? You're so mysterious."

There was a gleam of curiosity in her eyes, as if she was looking forward to what Jifa was going to say next.

Jifa gently embraced Daji, feeling her warmth and softness. He took a deep breath and said slowly:

"Daji, I just received a letter from my father. The letter told me that he was seriously ill and needed me to go to Sishui Pass to handle military affairs for my father. So I decided to set off for Sishui Pass immediately."

Upon hearing this, Su Daji's face changed slightly, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and she asked with concern:

"Ah? Jifa, your father...is he seriously ill? Is he serious?" Her eyes were full of worry and concern.

Ji Fa gently patted Su Daji's back and comforted her:

"I don't know the specifics of the situation, and the one or two sentences in the letter can't explain it clearly."

"But don't worry, Daji. I will bring Dr. Lu from the palace with me. He is a skilled doctor and will definitely be able to cure father's illness."

"I just felt a little worried about you, so I came to tell you."

Su Daji felt relieved after hearing this. She hugged Ji Fa tightly, her voice choking with sobs:

"Jifa, can I go with you? I can't bear to leave you, and I'm worried about you. I'm afraid you'll run into danger on the road alone."

Ji Fa felt Daji's deep affection and attachment, and a warm current surged in his heart. He gently kissed Daji's forehead and said firmly:

"Daji, I understand your intentions. I am very grateful that you care about me so much and are willing to walk with me."

"But this time I'm going to the front line, which is full of dangers and the situation changes rapidly."

"How can you, a woman, go with me? On the battlefield, swords have no mercy. How can I let you put yourself in such a dangerous situation?"

Su Daji's tears welled up in her eyes when she heard this. She held Ji Fa's hand tightly, and her voice trembled a little:

"Jifa, I know the battlefield is dangerous, but I'm more worried about you."

"I'm afraid you'll run into something unexpected there, and I'm afraid I'll lose you. I'm willing to face all the difficulties with you, as long as we can be together."

Ji Fa gently patted Daji's hand and comforted her:

"Daji, I appreciate your kindness. But you must understand that I am going to the battlefield this time for our future and for our family."

"I can't let you take risks with me. I can't let you get hurt. You being here is my biggest motivation and my biggest concern."

Su Daji lowered her head, remained silent for a moment, then raised her head with a determined light in her eyes:

"Jifa, I understand. I will wait for you here until you return safely. But you must promise me that you must protect yourself and come back to see me safely."

Ji Fa held Da Ji's hand tightly and said affectionately:

"Daji, I promise you. I will protect myself and come back to see you safely."

"You are my only one and the most important person in my life. For you and our future, I will protect myself and come back to be with you soon."

Upon hearing this, tears once again flowed down Su Daji's cheeks, but she still smiled firmly:

"Jifa, I believe in you. You will definitely come back, and I will always be here waiting for you. No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you."

Jifa gently hugged Daji, feeling her warm body temperature and firm belief.

He knew that although he was reluctant to leave Daji alone, he had to do so.

On the one hand, his father Ji Chang is now seriously ill. If he brings Daji, whom he is not satisfied with, with him, he will surely be furious and his condition will worsen, which will be a burden he cannot bear.

On the other hand, he was also deeply worried about the dangers on the battlefield. War was cruel and ruthless. If Daji were to be put in danger, even the slightest harm would be something he did not want to see.

So he gently kissed Daji's forehead, and that kiss was filled with endless tenderness and reluctance.

"wait for me,"

He whispered, "When I come back, I won't let anyone separate us from each other."

So Jifa gently kissed Daji's forehead, chatted with her for a while, and then resolutely turned and left.
