Perhaps, the two of them were just an illusion after all.
Little Xuyue should be safe in the palace of the Ninth Haven.
But Di Hao… Gu Xijiu suddenly had cold sweat!
If she guessed correctly, the boy she saw earlier was not the real Di Hao. He was probably missing or locked away somewhere.
Otherwise, Fan Qianshi would not disappear so silently. After all, he was the God of Creation. No one could get rid of him so easily.
Therefore, the most likely possibility was that Fan Qianshi and Di Hao were both imposters or illusions designed to fool her. As Di Fuyi managed to escape from the inner demon's earlier trap, perhaps she decided to be more cautious this time around. Thus, she made the fake Fan Qianshi disappear but was sure to keep Di Hao around to make a more convincing case.
Frankly, the demon only wanted to have Di Fuyi to herself. Hence, it was unlikely that she would harm him.
