198: Chapter 199: It’s not difficult, let calculate it for a mont 198: Chapter 199: It’s not difficult, let calculate it for a mont Yuan Shoucheng looked at his master with anticipation in his eyes.
However, Wang Yang just smiled and shook his head, indicating that he did not intend to answer.
He had already done all he could.
He certainly couldn’t say that these two rules could solve future worries.
“Master…”
Yuan Shoucheng looked at Wang Yang, sowhat silently.
“Celestial secrets must not be divulged.
Leave the mountain now, and rember, no matter what happens, you must never reveal your master’s existence, rember this well!”
Having said this, Wang Yang imdiately waved the fly whisk in his hand.
Yuan Shoucheng suddenly felt a blur before his eyes, and his body unexpectedly floated up.
When he regained his senses, he had already appeared at the foot of the mountain.
“Alas, Master has eventually sent down the mountain after all,”
At that mont, Yuan Shoucheng sowhat helplessly reflected, hoping originally to use this issue to stay a bit longer.
Unfortunately, the master did not give him any ti, instantly whisking him to the foothills with a fly whisk.
Yuan Shoucheng looked up at the mountain and then deeply bowed towards the deep mountain, saying, “Master above, your disciple shall scrupulously follow your commands, betting only once, never gambling with others in this lifeti, and no matter when, will not reveal master!”
After bowing respectfully, Yuan Shoucheng then turned and departed from the mountain.
Just as he had left the range of the mountain peak, he was spotted by so immortals of the Celestial Court.
“Oh, isn’t that Yuan Shoucheng, the person the Great Marshal had been searching for, who triggers the Calamity of asurent?
How did he suddenly appear here?”
At that mont, the Duty Officer in the Void sensed sothing and saw the one at the foot of the mountain.
With Yuan Shoucheng’s appearance, the Duty Officers couldn’t help but feel joy in their hearts.
After all, this man had been missing without a trace; even the Jade Emperor couldn’t find any leads.
The Duty Officer quickly followed to prevent Yuan Shoucheng from disappearing again.
“Discovering Yuan Shoucheng this ti is definitely a great achievent.
I feel that reporting this matter might make Celestial King Li very pleased, and perhaps he might even reward !”
The Duty Officer who had been keeping an eye on Yuan Shoucheng felt secretly pleased at this stroke of luck.
Who wouldn’t be happy at such a find?
With that said, the Duty Officer transmitted the news up to the heavens.
Before long, the news had reached Virūḍhaka the Guardian King at the Southern Heaven Gate.
Upon receiving the ssage from the Duty Officer, Virūḍhaka did not dare to delay and reported it upwards imdiately.
At that ti in the Ninth Celestial Palace.
Many Deities of the Celestial Court were concerned about what to do since Yuan Shoucheng had disappeared.
Just then, Virūḍhaka submitted the information he had obtained.
Li Jing looked at Virūḍhaka sowhat unexpectedly.
Initially, when Yuan Shoucheng had inexplicably disappeared, he had wanted to punish him severely.
Moreover, as ti dragged on, their chances of finding Yuan Shoucheng were dwindling.
If Yuan Shoucheng had vanished, would they really need to find soone else?
Li Jing was becoming increasingly agitated and even considered replacing the Duty Officer.
However, unexpectedly, the Duty Officer had brought news, which made Pagoda-Carrying Celestial King Li sowhat puzzled.
“Your Majesty, the Duty Officer ca personally to report this, and he would not dare deceive Your Majesty.
Hence, in my view, this is likely true!”
Seeing Pagoda-Carrying Celestial King Li express doubts, Virūḍhaka did not dare to speak more and just passed the news received from the Duty Officer.
“Alright, I understand.
You may leave!”
After receiving the news from the Duty Officer, Li Jing was quite convinced and turned to report to the Jade Emperor.
“Your Majesty, the individual responsible for triggering the Journey to the West Calamity of asurent has now been found again.
It is ti to initiate the plan!”
Above in the Ninth Celestial Palace, the Jade Emperor sat elevated, overlooking the many Deities of the Celestial Court, none showing any distinct reaction on their faces.
Now that Yuan Shoucheng had reappeared, so deities were overjoyed while others were filled with imnse concerns.
After all, the unfolding of the Journey to the West Calamity ant the inevitable rise of Buddhism and the corresponding decline of the Daoist Sect—unchangeable facts.
Of course, no matter how these Deities of the Celestial Court thought.
The Jade Emperor had decided to continuously push forward the agenda.
After a mont of silence, the Jade Emperor finally nodded and declared, “Approved!”
Of everything that had happened in the heavens, Yuan Shoucheng naturally knew nothing.
After returning ho and getting organized.
He set up a fortune-telling stall as usual on the bustling west gate street of Chang’an City, starting his small fortune-telling business.
He had originally been engaged in this small fortune-telling business, and eting Wang Yang did not significantly change that.
Written on his banner were the words “Know misfortune, ascertain fortune, decide death, speak of life.”
In Chang’an City, Yuan Shoucheng was already quite famous.
However, there were still so who did not believe in such matters.
“They even say they can predict misfortune and determine fortune, declare death and proclaim life?
Such grand claims indeed, but it remains to be seen whether this fortune-teller truly possesses such extraordinary skills!”
“Exactly, I wonder if he could demonstrate a few tricks to show us his abilities!”
“That’s right, that’s right!”
“…”
Fortune tellers who made such bold claims generally attracted a lot of attention, and even though so had considered Yuan Shoucheng to be a living immortal, he could not avoid being regarded as a fraud by so.
Therefore, such a scene ensued.
“If you were just helping to pick an auspicious na or calculate a birth chart, that would be one thing, but to claim you know about life and death, fortune and misfortune?”
“Exactly, if you were really that great, you wouldn’t need to set up a stall here; the Emperor would have summoned you to tell his fortune long ago!”
“…”
Many present were gossiping, and hardly anyone believed Yuan Shoucheng.
Those who did believe were hardly ever present all the ti.
Yet faced with such a scene,
“Dear sir, please be patient, whether I have the skills or not, you will know after just one consultation!”
Yuan Shoucheng was neither flustered nor anxious, having grown accustod to this sort of diligence.
There were always a few doubters whenever he set up his stall.
However, after just one consultation, they generally understood.
“Alright, then please tell , what trouble have I encountered today!”
A young man stepped forward and coldly said, “If you can tell that, I will truly admire you!”
This young man’s words clearly posed a challenge, and even if a real Demi Immortal were present, achieving such a feat would likely be impossible.
So even thought Yuan Shoucheng would not dare, as it was too difficult.
Regardless of what Yuan Shoucheng said, if the young man claid it was incorrect, then Yuan Shoucheng would lose.
“What’s so difficult about that, let just calculate!”
Saying this, Yuan Shoucheng began searching for the answer using the thod of Extrapolation taught by Wang Yang.
“Today, when you left your house, you stepped on a dog’s leg, and it bit your left foot.
There’s still a tooth mark on your left leg now, am I right?”
At that mont, Yuan Shoucheng was brimming with confidence as he spoke.
Since the event was recent, the calculation was relatively easy.
“What?
Sir, you…”
Seeing that Yuan Shoucheng had directly calculated the fact, even including the detail about the tooth mark, made the young man’s foot twitch uncontrollably!
The young man was shocked, as if he had seen a ghost, and dared not be presumptuous any longer.
Upon seeing the young man’s expression, the crowd realized Yuan Shoucheng must have guessed correctly, and their interest was imdiately piqued.
So, who already had issues of their own, hoped sincerely to get answers from Yuan Shoucheng!
“Sir, today I went out with a companion, but she suddenly left .
May I know the reason behind her departure?”
“Sir, I have misplaced a sum of silver.
Could you help determine where it might be?”
“Sir, so of my chickens have recently gone missing, could you possibly calculate who might have stolen them?”
“…”
At that mont, these commoners raised their own issues, hoping to get answers from Yuan Shoucheng, who did not refuse and calculated for each one of them.
In the end, Yuan Shoucheng’s predictions all turned out to be correct, much to the marvel and astonishnt of the crowd.
“Sir, your calculations are so accurate, you even knew how many bites of food I had, truly like a Demi Immortal!”
“What Demi Immortal, that’s a living immortal!
Not to ntion what you ate, he even knows what I’m thinking!”
The people present were all shocked and exclaid praises to the living immortal.
Although they were impressed, there were rules here; simple predictions didn’t cost much, but thorough inquiries into significant matters would cost considerably more.
Although the crowd found it magical, they did not delve deeply into any issues, and so people soon left.
Only a few curious individuals remained.
Yuan Shoucheng, seeing this, was not in a rush.
He knew fortune-telling wasn’t to be hurried and, like his old master, he believed in destined connections—if there was fate, they would naturally co.
At this mont, a person, having heard several days ago that there was a Demi Immortal in Chang’an who could predict many things, ca to see for himself.
It was a fisherman who felt incredibly unlucky recently, having failed to catch any fish for several consecutive days, and he wanted to inquire if he had truly encountered bad luck.
Seeing no one stepping forward at that mont, he took the initiative to sit across from Yuan Shoucheng.
“Sir, these past few days, no matter where I fish, luck has not been with , and the catch has been poor.
Could you help figure out where I might find a successful catch?”
Yuan Shoucheng looked at the fisherman and, of course, could not know that this fisherman would be the one to change his destiny.
Smiling, he said, “Not difficult, not difficult at all, let calculate!”
