Chapter 339: Breaking Free from the Shackles of Fate
The Soul Gathering Platform was built by Nangong Yunrong so that he and his wife Chen Duoer could stay together for generations.
Since its completion, later generations have used this place as the ancestral tomb of the Nangong family.
Their tombs are located in the very center, surrounded by the tombs of the ancestors of Nangong throughout the generations.
And the coiled dragon pillar stood not far from Nangong Yunrong's tomb.
Yao Jia looked up and saw the Coiled Dragon Pillar standing tall, directly inserted into the top of the underground palace, supporting the structure of the entire underground palace. It was carved with exquisite dragon patterns, as if a giant dragon was perched on the dome, guarding this mysterious area.
After just a glance, he turned around and hurriedly pulled Gu Xiyan out.
"Yaoyao, didn't you come here to find a way to repair the Panlong Pillar? Why are you in such a hurry to get out?"
Yao Jia did not stop, and looked at him with a complicated expression, "There is no need to repair this place. Ancestor Yun Rong wanted me to follow the laws of nature and not interfere with the destruction of the Gathering Spirit Platform."
"Not going to interfere?" Gu Xiyan couldn't believe it. "This is the mausoleum of your Nangong family. Not letting you interfere is obviously asking you to give up this place!"
Yao Jia nodded and sighed, "Only by giving up this place can the descendants of the Nangong family break free from the shackles of fate and gain true freedom."
"Will Lao Zhengjun agree?"
"I don't know. I'll have to discuss it with Daddy when I get back."
To get out of the Spirit Gathering Platform, they had to break through the layers of barriers and formations outside. The two of them worked together in perfect harmony and quickly broke through the last level.
The sky outside was already pitch black, with stars dotted all over and moonlight pouring down like water.
Le Wuyou held up a lantern and waited eagerly, asking Nanshan, "Why hasn't Jiajia come out yet?"
Nanshan sighed deeply. From dusk till now, at three quarters past ten in the evening, Le Wuyou had asked him this question no less than thirty times.
"Prince Le, please be patient. I still say the same thing. Pavilion Master Nangong will be out soon."
Although he knew that all of Mr. Nanshan's divinations were correct, Le Wuyou still felt uneasy.
Yesterday he wanted to chase Yao Jia and jump into the crack, but as soon as his body was in the air, he was bounced away by a powerful force and fainted.
When he woke up, he found himself lying near the spirit gathering platform. He ran to the original area to look for Yao Jia, but he couldn't find the crack.
It was as if the scene at that time was an illusion.
He was extremely anxious and at a loss, and when he was at a loss in the forest, he happened to meet Mr. Nanshan who was out for a walk alone.
Seeing that he was so anxious, Nanshan asked him the reason. While comforting him, he counted with his fingers and said that Yaojia and Gu Xiyan were fine.
How could he believe Nanshan's one-sided statement?
Nanshan had no choice but to make another divination, which told him that Yaojia would come out from the Spirit Gathering Platform around 10 p.m. tonight.
He had been waiting here, and when he was about to ask Mr. Nanshan again, two figures gradually appeared in the distance. They were Yao Jia and Gu Xiyan.
"Jiajia——"
Seeing Yao Jia walk out of the Spirit Gathering Platform safely, Le Wuyou's worry and anxiety instantly disappeared, replaced by indescribable joy and excitement.
He ran over, no longer showing his usual forbearance and restraint, and directly hugged her in his arms and hugged her tightly, his eyes full of joy at having regained what he had lost.
"Jia Jia, you're okay... You're really okay..." His voice was choked, as if he had a thousand words to say, but when he came to his lips he didn't know where to start.
I can only hold her tightly in my arms, afraid that she will disappear if I let go.
Yao Jia also hugged him tightly with her arms. Although she knew that he would be fine, she felt relieved to hold him, feeling warm all over.
Seeing the two of them hugging each other as if no one was around, Gu Xiyan's handsome face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He stepped forward and pulled Yao Jia out of Le Wuyou's arms.
A pair of deep eyes stared at Le Wuyou steadily, and said sarcastically: "If you want to hug her, take off the hat on your head before hugging her, so that my Yaoyao won't be labeled as a bad guy who steals her best sister's boyfriend!"
Le Wuyou's face froze instantly, and he looked even more uncomfortable when he saw Mr. Nanshan walking towards him.
He cleared his throat awkwardly, trying to cover up his gaffe.
Nanshan didn't seem to care about these things. With a faint smile on his lips, he nodded at Yaojia and Gu Xiyan.
"Master Nangong, General Gu, congratulations on your safe return." Mr. Nanshan said, his gaze lingering on the compass around Yao Jia's neck for a moment. A strange look flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
Seeing him here, Yao Jia couldn't help but feel confused.
Le Wuyou briefly told Yao Jia what happened yesterday.
Nanshan had calculated before that Yao Jia would appear in the nearby city, and this time he calculated that she was at the Spirit Gathering Platform, so Yao Jia did not have much doubt.
Gu Xiyan had already regarded the current Nanshan as a fairyland in his heart, so this was not surprising.
It was getting late, the night was as dark as ink, and although it was already spring, there was still a hint of coolness in the breeze.
Yao Jia was hit by the wind and shivered slightly.
Seeing this, Gu Xiyan and Le Wuyou both lowered their heads to take off their outer robes.
Unexpectedly, Nanshan was one step faster than them and gently put his cloak on Yaojia.
"It's windy at night, be careful not to catch a cold." He instructed gently, his eyes full of concern.
Yao Jia smiled back, "Thank you sir."
Gu Xiyan knew Nanshan's true identity, and didn't think there was anything wrong with him behaving like this, so she put her clothes in place again.
Le Wuyou, who was standing aside, felt ripples in his heart.
He had a hunch that Nanshan's relationship with Jiajia was definitely not just that of a master and a disciple.
He glanced at Gu Xiyan, but did not see any displeasure on his face. He couldn't help but wonder if he had guessed wrong.
Gu Xiyan seemed to see Le Wuyou's doubts, and quickly coughed to break the delicate atmosphere, "Yaoyao, it's getting late, we should go back early, so that Huahua and the others won't worry."
Yao Jia's heart tightened, and she was dejected, "I didn't tell Hua Hua that I would stay out the night when I went out yesterday. I'm sure he'll scold me severely when I go back."
Yao Jia sighed. Hua Hua's reproach was secondary. She was just afraid of alarming Uncle Lin. Somehow, since she woke up this time, Uncle Lin had been watching her particularly closely. As long as there was something wrong with her, Uncle Lin would be unable to sleep or eat.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you. I'll explain to Huahua and daddy." Gu Xiyan patted his chest, looking like he was taking on a big responsibility.
Yao Jia sighed and said, "It's not a matter of explanation. I just feel bad for making Dad worry for nothing."
Whenever she thought of Uncle Lin’s worried eyes, she felt extremely guilty.
Mr. Nanshan seemed to see through Yao Jia's thoughts and said softly, "Pavilion Master Nangong, you don't have to worry about Mr. Lin. I have already sent a message to Mr. Liu for you and told him that you and General Gu are looking for a remedy at the Gathering Spirit Platform."
Yao Jia heard this, her eyes were full of gratitude, and she held Nanshan's hand and shook it, "Sir, why are you so considerate? It makes me like you even more."
Her face was full of cuteness and her clear watery eyes sparkled charmingly under the moonlight.
Nanshan's heart stagnated, his willow-leaf eyes flickered under the exquisite mask, a doting smile appeared on his lips, he unconsciously raised his hand to touch her face, but the moment he touched it, he changed his touch to touch her head.
Le Wuyou saw it clearly from the side and frowned instantly. As expected, he was right. Nanshan also had a crush on Jia Jia.
He could see it, and Gu Xiyan must have noticed it as well, so why did he just acquiesce?
What about Jiajia? To Nanshan...
Le Wuyou's thoughts were a tangled mess. Why was it that whenever he hugged Jia Jia, Gu Xiyan felt like she had stepped on a landmine and exploded immediately?
Nanshan touched Jiajia so blatantly, why didn't Gu Xiyan react at all?
He looked up at Gu Xiyan, wanting to find the answer from him, but found that Gu Xiyan's eyes were also on him.
But that look... was filled with inexplicable hostility.
Le Wuyou: ???
Should I vent my anger on him or let him take care of it?
She winked at Gu Xiyan and thought: Why are you looking at me? I have no status, but you are Jiajia's legitimate husband. Why don't you separate them?
Gu Xiyan noticed his look and turned her face away in disgust. Instead of trying to stop him, she reached out and pulled him towards the carriage further away.
Le Wuyou: …………
Double standards! Too much double standards!
