CHAPTER 1182: CHAPTER 282: CHEN JIE: YAYA, WILL YOU MARRY ME?

Finally, there’s this Zhao Ya, Her Highness the Commandery Princess.

The two met under the rotten vegetable cellar in Xiantao Village and later encountered each other again in Mianshui County, gradually understanding each other step by step.

They formed a slight impression of each other in their hearts, which then blossomed on this Five Poison Sacred Mountain.

If Su Yunjin’s situation is an arranged marriage and Huang Wan’er’s was an impulsive accident, then my state with Zhao Ya is somewhat similar to modern-day free love.

Zhao Ya is a very strong-willed person, even more so than Huang Wan’er.

Huang Wan’er was driven insane by her unfortunate circumstances, while Zhao Ya, she is not insane; she has deep feelings for her country and the world.

It’s a pity she is not a man; if she were, Zhao Ya should be a qualified commander, possessing ideals and ambitions that women aren’t supposed to have.

Although many of her ideas are immature and somewhat laughable, her boldness in thinking far surpasses most women nowadays.

In a short span of twenty years, Chen Jie encountered such wonderful women, Chen Jie couldn’t help but feel that heaven favored him.

Unfortunately, this world is not a peaceful era, making it difficult for me to marry Zhao Ya.

Due to current events, they are forced to restrain their affections; otherwise, they could face extinction.

Yet, the chaos of the world also offers hope; if I, Chen Jiusi, can develop my formidable power, then Zhao Ya, I can marry her.

Times of upheaval are ripe with opportunities as well as heroes.

Chen Jie and Zhao Ya gazed at the evening outside, each with different thoughts, until Chen Jie spoke up: "Yaya..."

"Hmm!"

Zhao Ya was startled and turned to look at Chen Jie.

"What did you call me?"

Zhao Ya was shocked, looking at Chen Jie, who said, "I mean, if one day I have the ability to marry you, would you be willing to go with me?"

"What!"

Zhao Ya’s eyes widened; she didn’t expect Chen Jie to be so bold.

Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya and said, "I mean, if one day, I have the ability to marry you, would you go with me?"

Zhao Ya was stunned, looking at Chen Jie and slowly shaking her head: "I...Chen Jiusi..."

"Give up on that thought; my fate was decided the moment I was born, no one can save me..."

Zhao Ya said with a heavy heart.

Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya and didn’t give up, saying, "How do you know no one can save you if we don’t try?"

"Why don’t we make a promise: if one day I have the power to save you, will you come with me?"

Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya, and she was stunned, replying after a long pause: "Let’s talk about it when the time comes..."

Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya’s demeanor and said nothing, while Zhao Ya thought to herself, Chen Jiusi, you have no idea what kind of opponent you’re facing; forget him, you can’t even pass through the Ruyang Royal Mansion.

Chen Jie looked at Zhao Ya, gently touching her hand.

Zhao Ya initially wanted to refuse, but for some reason, after Chen Jie held her hand, she felt it become soft and weak, unable to push the man away.

She could only allow him to hold her hand.

After a while, Chen Jie said: "Rest assured, I, Chen Jiusi, am true to my word; I will definitely save you. Whoever it may be, I will defeat them."

"Yaya, I will marry you!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya said nothing, but her heart raced intensely; although she knew it was impossible, it still stirred the feelings of a young maiden inside her, creating ripples!

Under the setting sun, the two held hands, making a wish for their future together.

...

Meanwhile, outside, a day and a night had passed, and Linglong had gone out to search for Mother Gu.

Mother Gu had already made preparations, and upon hearing Linglong’s report, said: "Very well, I will go find Ruyang King now and discuss the relevant matters."

Upon hearing this, Linglong immediately nodded.

Mother Gu learned that Zhao Ya had been rescued, which was a relief, so she directly sent someone to convey a message to Ruyang King, saying she wished to have a conversation with him.

The message reached Ruyang King, who said: "Alright, let’s have a chat."

Soon, the two agreed to meet outside the cave.

Mother Gu brought Elder Jin Chan and Guardian Elder.

While Ruyang King only brought Lord Wuxiang, the two met not far from the cave entrance.

At this point, Ruyang King looked at Mother Gu and said: "Li Chunhua, you finally decided to come out; if one didn’t know, they would think you planned to live in there forever!"

Upon hearing this, Mother Gu said: "Sorry to keep you waiting, Prince, there has been a rebellion in my sect recently, with many affairs to handle. By the way, there’s a traitor from my sect who ran to your mansion, are you aware?"

Ruyang King said: "A traitor? I’m not aware, but our mansion does have a Dragon Realm expert from Xiangxi, named Shen Tu, who has pledged allegiance and is currently a tributor for our mansion."

Mother Gu said: "Prince, there’s a saying that you should beware of biting dogs; let me advise you that since he betrayed my Five Poison Sect, he could betray your Ruyang Royal Mansion too, so be cautious using him!"

Upon hearing this, Ruyang King squinted his eyes and said nothing.

Meanwhile, Elder Xie watching the two meet from a distance clenched his teeth: "Li Chunhua, this madwoman, is still trying to harm me at this time; truly detestable!"

Seeing Elder Xie’s unpleasant expression, Zhang Shicheng beside him smiled and said: "Elder, don’t worry, I am here."

Upon hearing this, Elder Xie lightly nodded, gaining confidence; indeed, with Zhang Shicheng’s help, he discovered he was gaining insight into many matters, able to place opponents in jeopardy simply with a few words.
