As he looked at the thousand year old ancient cultivator with the appearance of a female teenager across from him, Luo Wusheng felt a strong sense of unreality.
He had just thought about this Tower Master a while ago, and now she suddenly appeared like this?
And it seed like she had been watching him for so ti!
Imdiately, his pupils contracted.
’Did she already know that I would recognize her at a glance? And her comnt about how "destiny has shifted once again..".’
Luo Wusheng knew that his fate would definitely change. After all, he had awakened his modern world mories for quite so ti, and everything he had done was to change his fate of dying in the chaos caused by the Demon Purging War.
With so many events happening that didn’t exist in the original plot, the tiline had already gone off the rail.
Although it wasn’t clear whether he could escape the disaster one year later, there should be so changes.
For example, due to his connection with the protagonist, he might survive a few extra months in the following year.
But the word "again" in her statent...
Did that an she had been paying attention to him before?
At this mont, thoughts raced through Luo Wusheng’s mind.
Yes, the fake Diviner Gao Shi was sent by her to the Royal City in advance despite the Human Immortal List would only begin in a few weeks. And Gao Shi special [Art of Divination] that seed to be specifically tailored to please him coincidentally also arrived at the Royal City on the eve of the Demon Artifact Pavilion’s opening ceremony...
If all of this was orchestrated by the grandma-disguised-as-a-youthful-teenager in front of him after receiving so sort of feedback from the Heavenly chanism, what could be her purpose?
Although this Tower Master of the Heavenly Divination Tower appeared as a cute white-haired girl, Luo Wusheng wouldn’t underestimate her because of that.
Ignoring her age, which already made her one of the oldest and dangerous people in the world due to how a cultivator is an occupation where most would die young, the fact that she is the number one Diviner in the world who can freely view the future and manipulate the Heavenly chanism would imply that anything that she did would not be simple.
"My identity is just as you guessed, and correct, I have no ill intentions toward you."
Yue Xuanji seed to sense Luo Wusheng’s vigilance and shook her head. "I did pay so attention to you, but that’s because in recent days, the Heavenly chanism has been continuously changing, and all that has been changed are all related to you."
"The [Art of Divination] also has its limits, and now I cannot view the Heavenly chanism as casually as before. Therefore, you should be more aware of the reasons behind the changes in the Heavenly chanism than I am."
The silver-haired girl gently swayed her long hair, displaying a maturity beyond her appearance.
Which is fitting, considering she is old enough to be the previous Immortal Nation Emperor great-grandma.
Seeing the other’s frankness, Luo Wusheng’s montary confusion dissipated, and his gaze flickered. He quickly cald down.
"Miss Yue, you’re joking. I have no understanding of the [Art of Divination], so how could I know anything about the reasons behind the changes in the Heavenly chanism?".
The changes in the Heavenly chanism were probably caused by his awakened mories, but there is no way he is going to say that.
"...Through my divination, it was foreseen that your first deviation in your destiny began with a jade stone called the ’Star-Moon Jade.’"
Yue Xuanji gazed at the young man before her, unaffected by Luo Wusheng’s words. "That’s why I had my disciple Gao Shi co to the Royal City at an appropriate ti to do so probing."
A faint stiffness appeared in Luo Wusheng’s smile.
However, Yue Xuanji didn’t stop speaking.
"After the Star-Moon Jade was connected to my disciple, I deduced sothing that connection."
"He is still lacking in cultivation and his thod of deduction is not as refined as mine. The feedback from the Heavenly chanism he received was extrely limited."
"Different from him, I deduced that there are, in fact, 23 "the only one" Star-Moon Jades, all of which were personally obtained by you, using the moonlight spirit liquid of the Moon Palace, and curiously, given at separate ti to three won who were present at that ti..."
The petite girl with delicate features spoke in a calm tone.
But Luo Wusheng’s mouth twitches uncontrollably.
Why did he feel that this Tribulation Crossing expert is trying to imply sothing in her words? Was she like this in the original work?
Hmm, in the original work, Yue Xuanji was mostly a background character. At least as far as he rembers, before Luo Wusheng died in the Demon Purging War, she only appeared a few tis.
She was more involved in planning and arrangents, playing the role of a highly sophisticated mastermind who handled everything behind the scene. She rarely appeared in front of the protagonist or had deep conversations with them.
In this way, even with his knowledge of the original plot, Luo Wusheng couldn’t grasp the personality of this girl.
Quickly calculating in his mind, Luo Wusheng spoke up, "Ahem, it’s just so private matters of mine, it’s not worth ntioning— But I wonder why Miss Yue has appeared here at this mont? You’re not here just to tease , right?"
His gaze focused on the white-haired girl in front of him.
This was indeed his most pressing concern at the mont.
As the Tower Master of the Heavenly Divination Tower and a Peak Tribulation Crossing expert, why would she appear here at such a critical ti?
Luo Wusheng had a vague guess.
"Naturally, I am here to help you, with your current strength, you probably can’t rescue the Netherqueen, right?"
Yue Xuanji raised her starry gaze, as if she had already seen through everything, her expression unchanged.
Indeed!
Luo Wusheng’s heart skipped a beat.
’This is the treatnt the protagonist gets. Whenever she’s in danger, soone always cos to the rescue— Wait a minute, help ?’
A hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.
Why does the expression of these words feel a bit strange?
In Luo Wusheng’s imagination, at this mont, the Heavenly Divination Tower’s Tower Master would help him rescue the Netherqueen to prevent a major disruption in the Heavenly chanism...
But...
"I will use my techniques to send you to the bottom of the Ascending Immortality Lake to unseal the Netherqueen and then take you away."
Adjusting her loose robes, Yue Xuanji squatted in front of Luo Wusheng, her eyes devoid of emotion.
"Why? Is it because unsealing the Netherqueen aligns with whatever plan the Heavenly chanism has? And why don’t you do it yourself?" Luo Wusheng furrowed his brow.
"No matter how it is done, the Heavenly chanism no longer functions as they did before. As for other reasons..."
Yue Xuanji seed to ponder for a mont, then tilted her head expressionlessly. "Is it because the working behind the Heavenly chanism must not be revealed?"
She looked quite cute doing that with her appearance.
Unfortunately, despite her appearance, her age is quite.......advanced.
Just as Luo Wusheng was lost in his thoughts, he suddenly felt Yue Xuanji’s small eyes sharpen.
"My [Art of Divination] seems to sense that your current thoughts are sowhat inappropriate."
"No, that’s not the case. Miss Yue must have sensed it wrong."
Even Luo Wusheng, facing the scrutiny of a Tribulation Crossing expert, couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and imdiately dismissed those thoughts, responding without blushing or skipping a beat.
’But the working behind the Heavenly chanism must not be revealed, It’s a familiar old reason that she uses in the story.’
He quickly changed the topic. "How can you be sure that I will agree to go to the bottom of the Ascending Immortality Lake to unseal the Netherqueen? Can the [Art of Divination] calculate all of this?"
The [Art of Divination] was truly terrifying.
It felt like he was reading an old, incomplete version of the script, while this Tower Master of the Heavenly Divination Tower was holding the script that updated itself at real-ti.
His most significant trump card was completely suppressed.
Yue Xuanji seed to ponder how to answer that question.
But she casually shook her little head.
"If the action of a Golden Core cultivator were effective, why would I, with my Tribulation Crossing cultivation, still be here?"
