Nangong Limu grew more uneasy the more he thought about it. Earlier, when Shangguan Qingchen called Nangong Limu, it had already left him astonished. After all, Nangong Limu hadn't expected Shangguan Qingchen to reach out at such a crucial moment. Later, when Shangguan Qingchen clearly explained the efforts Shangguan Haotian made behind Fu Ya's regained freedom, it became apparent to Nangong Limu that Shangguan Haotian seemed quite displeased with Fu Ya. If that was the case, why did Shangguan Haotian do something so unexpected? This was what troubled Nangong Limu.
As Nangong Limu finished speaking, a sharp glint of coldness flickered in Shangguan Haotian's deep black eyes, disappearing in an instant. His hands, resting at his sides, clenched tightly, obviously indicating a significant emotional upheaval at that moment. He took a couple of deep breaths and looked at Nangong Limu with calm eyes, casually uttering, "It's just that I was compelled."
