Everything happened in a split second. All of Gu Xijiu's actions were her instincts during the emergency. Even she did not know what she was hugging.
The thing that she was hugging seemed to be frozen!
At this moment, the boat finally stopped.
A cold voice came from above, "Let go!"
Gu Xijiu opened her eyes and realized that she was in Celestial Master Zuo's arms. Her arms were hugging his thin waist!
She was like an octopus clinging to his arms.
She immediately let go and jumped up. She looked up and saw the eight boys and girls looking at her with a surprised expression.
When she turned around, she saw Celestial Master You, Tian Jiyue, and the overlord of Tianwen Clan, Long Siye.
Tian Jiyue's cold face was expressionless.
Long Siye bit his lips and stared at her. He did not look good!
Meanwhile, Di Fuyi, who was hugged by her, stood up and looked at her with a faint smile, "You have guts!"
The eight boys and girls secretly nodded their heads. This girl was too bold!
Celestial Master Zuo was actually very fussy. Usually, he would not allow anyone to be within ten feet from him. Once he broke the rules, he would immediately be slapped away. Not only that, he would also be severely punished.
The eight of them had been serving him for a long time, but they had never gotten close to him.
Now, not only did the girl get close to him, she even hugged his waist!
It was their first time seeing a little girl in the arms of the wise and powerful Celestial Master Zuo.
What was even more rare was that the fussy Celestial Master Zuo did not throw the little girl away!
How strange!
Gu Xijiu did not think much of it. During the dangerous situation just now, she would have hugged a pig without letting go …
She could still smell his scent. Gu Xijiu coughed and said, "I'm sorry, I hugged you like a pillar."
Di Fuyi was speechless. Was there a pillar that was so handsome that even the gods were angry at him?
He took a glance at Gu Xijiu. She was calm and did not seem to be surprised that she could hug Celestial Master Zuo. She looked as if she had hugged a piece of wood.

The Open Heaven Stage was the most sacred place in the Tianxing Kingdom.
Its function was similar to that of the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, but it was much grander.
The Temple of Heaven was a place where people offered sacrifices to the heavens to pray for good weather and a good harvest in the coming year. The Open Heaven Stage was a place where Celestial Master Zuo went up to the heavens to listen, to test the talents of the heavens, and to punish the immoral emperors.
Usually, the Open Heaven Stage would not appear in front of people. Only when Celestial Master Zuo activated it would it appear like a mirage on the left side of the Fucang Palace.
This platform would not be opened easily. Some people had lived for half their lives and had never seen what this platform looked like.
Therefore, when the news that Celestial Master Zuo was going to activate the Open Heaven Stage to test if Gu Xijiu was a heaven's gift disciple, it spread like wildfire across the streets and alleys of the city.
Countless commoners swarmed over from all directions and gathered at the plaza on the left side of Fucang Hall, waiting for the sacred platform to appear.
When the flashy ship appeared in the sky, the people below burst into cheers.
When they saw Tian Jiyue and Long Siye beside the blue ship, their cheers were deafening!
