Chapter 326 - 326 Secret Room (1)

326 Secret Room (1)
The woman in white turned a deaf ear to the man’s words. She only threw the three copper coins to the ground again and again.
She kept repeating the motion, as if she would never get tired of it.
The middle-aged man was not surprised by her attitude. After all, this was the scene he saw every time he came here for the past six years.
The difference was that this time, he did not leave directly like usual. Instead, he walked in front of the woman.!!
Looking at the woman’s hideous face covered in scars, he sighed and said, “It’s been six years, Ji Luo. You’re still so stubborn.”
Ji Luo’s hands stopped for a moment, but she quickly continued.
“Do you still remember the last divination you made 18 years ago? When the Purple Star shows up, the True Dragon will appear.”
The middle-aged man did not seem to expect her to answer him. He squatted down and looked at her at eye level. He continued like he was chatting to an old friend, “Now that 18 years have passed, it won’t be long before the balance between the three countries is broken.”
“In the end, the True Dragon will unify the world. At that time, our Valley of Heavenly Secrets will stand in front of the world again and become an existence respected by everyone, just like our ancestors.”
After saying that, the middle-aged man’s eyes were filled with madness.
However, Ji Luo still ignored him and did not even look up.
The middle-aged man was angered by her appearance. He suddenly reached through the iron cage and grabbed Ji Luo’s chin, forcing her to look up. He shook his head regretfully. “Unfortunately, that has nothing to do with you anymore. We grew up together. Why did you have to fall in love with someone else?”
As he spoke, his fingers kept rubbing against the scars on Ji Luo’s face.
He seemed to have thought of something and shook her off. He stood up and his expression became ferocious. He gritted his teeth and said, “For that man, as the Valley Master, you disregarded your ancestral teachings and betrayed the valley.”
“It would have been fine if that man was a good person, but look at what happened to him.”
“Ji Luo, do you regret it?”
The ancestral teachings of the Valley of Heavenly Secrets stated that one could not be involved with the royal family. The Valley Master had to marry the High Priest and give birth to the next Valley Master.
She had broken both rules.
Did she regret it?
Ji Luo had asked herself this countless times, but when she thought of that person, she knew that she would never regret it.
Even if that person betrayed her, she would not regret it.
Ji Luo picked up the copper coins scattered on the ground one by one and sat down again, just as the middle-aged man had seen when he first entered.
Seeing his behavior, the man sneered. “I came to tell you today that the Wu Kingdom is already under the control of the True Dragon.”
“Next is Great Xia, then the Xuanyuan Kingdom. You should be familiar with these two places, right?”
The middle-aged man did not say anything else and left.
Behind him, there was the sound of the stone door closing again. The stone room fell into darkness, and only the faint moonlight shone through the hole in the mountaintop.
Ji Luo slowly looked up at the night sky and suddenly smiled. She said in a hoarse voice, “It’s been six years. So sixteen years have passed?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a tear fell from the corner of her eye.
After a long time, she reached out and wiped away the tear. She looked at the three copper coins in her hand and sneered.
The divination from 18 years ago was her last divination in the valley. When she escaped, she had indeed sworn not to do it again.
Unfortunately, they had all underestimated a mother’s heart.
As long as she could protect her child, she had nothing to fear from being punished for breaking her oath.
However, it was during that divination that she discovered a variable.
This change meant that these people would not get what they wanted.
She was waiting for these people to bring about the destruction of the Valley of Heavenly Secrets.
In a two-story bamboo building, a beautiful woman sat in front of a dressing table and let the maidservants help her with her hair.
Looking at her beautiful self in the mirror, she asked, “Did the high priest go there again?”
“Yes, I saw the high priest just come out,” the white-robed girl standing at the side replied.
With a clang, the woman threw a dagger onto the dresser. “Go. Same old rules. Three cuts. Remember to go deeper this time.”
With that, the woman reached out and touched her cheek.
Her voice was gentle and there was a smile on her face, but her words were extremely vicious.
The girl in white was not surprised at all. She picked up the dagger, cupped her hands, and left. She walked towards the forbidden area with familiarity.
When Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen returned to the cliff, it was already dark. The two people and the tiger saw them and heaved a sigh of relief when they saw them return.
Furball brought over a pheasant from somewhere and placed it at Shen Yijia’s feet. It rubbed against her legs affectionately.
It was obvious that Furball was trying to please her.
Shen Yijia thought to herself, “Did something happen that I don’t know about? You’ve only been gone for half a day, but you’ve become so attentive. In the past, only Song Jingchen received such treatment from you.”
Furball didn’t care what she thought. It left after rubbing against her.
It only returned after 15 minutes. This time, she brought back a wild boar cub.
“What’s wrong with it?” Shen Yijia asked curiously.
Thirty Thousand said, “You didn’t eat at noon, right?”
The two masters had gone down the cliff and never returned. They did not know what was going on, so they did not dare to go down and look for them.
As long as Young Madam was not around, Mo Yuan would not cook at all. The meatballs Thirty Thousand roasted tasted bad, too.
Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. This little Furball was trying to please her because it wanted her beautiful husband to roast meat for it.
This scheming tiger finally knew who to please in this family. It seemed that she had not eaten alone for nothing these few days. It had not been easy!
“Is there a water source nearby?” Song Jingchen asked.
Shen Yijia was about to finish the dried jerky, so she could make more this time.
Thirty Thousand said, “I found a cave nearby. There’s a hidden pool in the cave.”
Song Jingchen nodded and asked Thirty Thousand to lead the way.
This cave was different from the one they had spent the night in. There was a stone bed inside and a few pots and jars in the corner.
It could be seen that someone had once lived here, but it must have been a long time ago.
Because both the stone bed and the pots were covered in a thick layer of dust.
They started a fire which lit up the cave. Song Jingchen looked around and said, “Let’s rest here tonight.”
Then, he instructed Thirty Thousand to follow Furball to find more prey.
After Mo Yuan cleaned up the pheasant and wild boar, Shen Yijia also washed the pots.
Song Jingchen stewed wild chicken soup in a pot.
Furball, who had returned with Thirty Thousand, was so anxious that it circled the remaining prey.
Shen Yijia happily drank wild chicken soup with Song Jingchen. She was amused by its appearance. “Mo Yuan, roast more meat for it.”
Of course, only she could eat what her beautiful husband made.
After everyone ate and drank their fill, Song Jingchen started to make the remaining meat into jerky.
The night passed uneventfully. The next morning, they set off down the mountain.
