Chapter 1484 Soul Awakening

Lu Zhi thought to himself, “My daughters have long been devoted to him. If I hadn’t stopped them, they probably would have been engaged long ago.

What kind of magic does Xuande possess…?

” Of course, he didn’t show it on his face, but instead smiled and said, “If the two sisters have chosen one of them, it will surely be a beautiful story in the future history books.”

Qiao Xuan’s face darkened, and he glared at his two daughters, telling them to go back to the inner quarters first.

The two sisters were in a very good mood after reuniting with Zu An, and they didn’t argue with their father anymore.

Qiao Xuan glanced at Zu An before pulling Lu Zhi to the study to discuss things.

Only Zu An and Zhou Yu remained in the hall.

Zu An’s heart stirred, and he took the initiative to strike up a conversation: “The Sun family father and son have already left. Gongjin, are you waiting for me here?”

“You’re quite shameless,” Zhou Yu smiled, “How did you know it was me?”

Zu An laughed, “You said before that you would transform into countless forms to become a strategist assisting various forces. Naturally, Zhou Yu is the only one who can serve by the side of the Sun family father and son.”

This guy in front of him was naturally one of the incarnations of the god of wisdom.

“Indeed, I stayed to talk to you. Both the Qiao sisters have taken a liking to you; it seems your luck is truly extraordinary. Perhaps that matter we discussed before will actually succeed for you,” Zhou Yu remarked.

“In that case, why don’t we cooperate? The chances of success would be much greater,” Zu An offered.

Zhou Yu shook his head slightly in refusal: “Although I have high hopes for you, I can’t let any other possibility slip by.”

Zu An remained silent; this was the most rational approach—to become a strategist, assisting every powerful figure. Regardless of who won, he would be the ultimate victor.

Zhou Yu cupped his hands in farewell and departed.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhi, supporting Qiao Xuan, emerged cheerfully: “Xuande, hurry and pay your respects to your father-in-law!”

Zu An was both surprised and delighted, unsure how Lu Zhi had persuaded him, and quickly stepped forward to bow.

“Greetings, Father-in-law!”

Qiao Xuan’s expression was somewhat unpleasant. “Hmph, we’re not even married yet, I dare not accept this title.”

Lu Zhi laughed heartily. “Xuande, don’t mind him. Lord Qiao actually admires you quite a bit, otherwise he wouldn’t have agreed. It’s just that you took away his two precious daughters all at once, so he can’t help but feel a little reluctant.”

Qiao Xuan’s expression softened slightly, and he calmly tested Lu Zhi’s knowledge and insights into the current political situation. Seeing that Lu Zhi answered fluently, he nodded with satisfaction.

Next, Lu Zhi discussed the betrothal arrangements with Qiao Xuan, while Zu An took the opportunity to sneak off to the back garden.

Shang Liuyu and Gong Suyin were sitting in the pavilion, seemingly chatting and laughing, both in good spirits.

Noticing Zu An’s arrival, the two women looked at him with ambiguous smiles, sitting on either side, their expressions as if waiting to see which side he would choose first.

Zu An didn’t choose at all, casually sitting between the two women: “I never imagined you two would become sisters, and that we’d meet again in this way.”

Shang Liuyu couldn’t help but sigh, “I’d heard you talk about Sister Gong before, and I even doubted if such a person truly existed. But meeting her in this world, I now know how much hardship you two went through.”

Zu An couldn’t help but look at Gong Suyin: “Later, I returned to the past world, but I couldn’t find you in the Guanghan Palace.”

“I stayed in the Guanghan Palace for countless years, so long that I’ve lost track of time, and I didn’t wait for you. Fortunately, the Goddess of Wushan and Xihe often came to keep me company, but not long after, Xihe never appeared again, and after some time, even the Goddess of Wushan stopped coming.” Gong Suyin’s tone was calm, as if she were recounting something completely unrelated to herself, but Zu An knew very well how unbearable that long period of time had been for her.

Zu An then told her about the message and image of the Goddess of Wushan from the future.

Gong Suyin thought for a moment and replied, “I’ve witnessed the world being destroyed many times in the Guanghan Palace for various reasons, but as time passes, the world recovers. Yaoji probably also encountered one of those world destructions.”

Zu An thought that the Guanghan Palace was truly special, always able to remain detached from worldly affairs.

“How did you get here?” Zu An continued to ask.

“As time has passed, Moxi’s strength has been steadily increasing, but the rate of increase can never match mine. In the Guanghan Palace, even without cultivation, my strength steadily increases.”

Shang Liuyu couldn’t help but tease, “If I hadn’t gotten to know your personality over this time, I would have thought you were showing off.”

Gong Suyin smiled faintly. Perhaps because she had stayed in the Guanghan Palace for too long, she had become exceptionally ethereal, seemingly having retained little human emotion.

“But one day, Moxi suddenly seemed to awaken. Her cultivation speed began to advance by leaps and bounds. Finally, after some time, she used the farewell to Nanchao to sever the bond between me and Guanghan Palace.” She recalled, “Later, I wanted to find you and went to several worlds, but unfortunately, I could not find you. Then, in one world, I was suddenly summoned by a mysterious force and came here.”

Zu’an was stunned: “Moxi awakened?”

“Because I spent too much time in Guanghan Palace, and I had no one else to talk to, I could only talk to Moxi. At first, she did not respond, but after countless years, she suddenly responded with a single word. In that instant, it was as if she suddenly had a soul.” Gong Suyin smiled self-deprecatingly, “Perhaps she found it too annoying for me to talk to her all the time.”

Zu’an thought back to when he tried to put Mi Li’s soul into Moxi’s body but failed. He had guessed that she might have originally had a soul inside her. Could it really be that she finally awakened after spending countless years in Guanghan Palace?

Having interacted extensively with the True God, he had learned a great deal. He suddenly realized that Princess Nihuang and the others resembled Moxi somewhat; perhaps she too was a fragment of the First True God’s soul, awakened only after sensing the movements of other soul fragments…

Shang Liuyu smiled, “Regardless, you two are now a happy couple.”

Gong Suyin held her hand, softly saying, “Aren’t you the same? No matter how many times we reincarnate, we will always fall in love with the same man.”

Zu An could no longer contain his emotions, embracing both women on either side: “I am the happiest man in the world now; words cannot describe my feelings.”

Gong Suyin and Shang Liuyu exchanged a glance, gently resting their heads on his shoulders.

When you have lived through countless years, seen countless worlds, and endured countless tribulations with your lover, how can you still harbor any jealousy or rivalry?

Shang Liuyu suddenly asked curiously, “Zu, how did you come to this world?”

“I came to collect the fragments of the First True God…” Zu An slowly recounted everything to the two women.

“The First True God?” The sisters, though hearing this for the first time, felt a glimmer of hope in their hearts, as if a light had flashed through the darkness.

“How do you collect the fragments of the First True God?” Their eyes burned with curiosity, eager to verify their hypothesis.

Zuan: “…”
