With Yu Yin joining, the duo became a real trio, preventing Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu from messing around. They toured the Gentleman’s Country obediently.
“Every time I visit the Dayu Empire, I feel like it’s a different world from the Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty. I get similar feelings visiting the Gentleman’s Country.”
Yu Yin sighed, the internal struggles of the Tianyuan Emperor Dynasty were a result of it’s nation’s fortune, some tactics used were so dirty that even she found it hard to adapt.
She was trying to find ways to change the destiny of her country, but progress was almost non-existent.
“Have a look, have a look! I, as a disciple of the Blue Void Mountain, provide consultation and calculate one’s destiny.” A small Taoist was shouting loudly, his attire resembling that of a fortune-teller.
“Blue Void Mountain, could it be the legendary secluded sect that claims to calculate the heavenly secrets, thus going against heaven’s will forcing it to close it’s doors and decline all visitors?”
“I always thought Blue Void Mountain was just a legend, who would’ve thought it actually exists?”
“Eighty percent chance it’s a swindler.”
People passing by were whispering, some believed, some didn’t.
“How many spirit stones?” Some people thought that dishonest acts shouldn’t occur in the Gentleman’s Country and wanted to give it a try.
“Ten lower-grade spirit stones.”
The man seemed skeptical. This was too cheap.
With a mentality that no loss would be incurred, the man asked, “Can you predict when my wife and I can have a child?”
The little fortune-teller looked at the man, he counted with his thumb, then showed a troubled look.
“Before you want a child, could you first find a wife?”
The man was surprised, he didn’t expect this unremarkable little fortune teller could predict that he was not yet married.
“Here are another ten spirit stones. Can you predict when I will become a Golden Core Stage cultivator?”
The little fortune teller pushed the spirit stones back: “Each person can only ask once, you have used up this chance, your destiny has been used up. Goodbye.”
Despite the man’s good words, the fortune teller was adamant and he had no choice but to give up.
“Little Mister, can you calculate why I have been having trouble sleeping at night recently?”
“Because you have slept for five hours during the day.”
“Little Mister, I want to be rich. It’s always me giving spirit stones to others. When is it my turn to receive spirit stones?”
“Here are your ten spirit stones back, take it.”
“Little Mister, will I be successful in cheating on this exam?”
“There’s no need to cheating, you will have a stomachache on the day of the exam and you will spend the whole day in the toilet and miss the exam.”
“Little Mister, I am a mighty Body Integration Realm cultivator, but yesterday when I woke up, I found that my body was empty and had no mana. What happened to me?”
“Play less holodeck, you are actually at the third level of Qi Cultivation.”
“Xiaoxiao, didn’t think that there are fortune tellers in this world too, shall we give it a try?” Xia Chao was excited, as per Jiang Li’s suggestion, he came to this world, every day he could witness something fresh.
The more time he spent in this world, the more he knew, the more he could feel the greatness of Jiang Li. Looking back, he felt that he was tremendously lucky to have summoned Jiang Li.
Xiaoxiao’s head had dragon horns on it. She was originally a disbeliever of fortune-telling, but seeing Xia Chao interested in it, she had no reason to object it.
“Little Mister, can you predict my origin?” Xia Chao handed over ten spirit stones.
“Interesting, neither of you are cultivators from this world, but are from another one.” The little fortune-teller revealed a playful smile.
“You are a God-transformation stage cultivator, while your companion is even stronger, she’s a real dragon.”
“You both came from another world to this one, first going to the Four Seas to learn the Real Dragon Art, studying the power and knowledge contained in the bloodline of the real dragon.”
“After that you traveled around, visited places like the White Marsh Emperor’s Dynasty, the Beast Taming Sect to learn how cultivators and demon tribes coexist, planning to integrate this essence into your own world.”
Without needing to ask, people could tell by Xia Chao’s expression whether the little fortune-teller’s predictions were accurate.
What surprised people was not only the accuracy of the fortune teller, but also the fact that these two people actually came from another world and that the one with the dragon horns was a real dragon.
A real dragon from another world.
Xiaoxiao revealed her dragon eyes, trying to see through the depth of the little fortune-teller, but unfortunately, nothing was gained.
But this was normal as well. After coming to this world, Xiaoxiao fought with many Body Integration Realm cultivators and deeply realized how many strong individuals were hidden among the populace, so it was only natural for her to not see through some people.
“Can I also have my fortune read?” Xiaoxiao also wanted to give it a try.
“Of course, Xia Chao is Xia Chao and you are you. Both of you have one chance each.” The little fortune teller nonchalantly revealed Xia Chao’s name.
“I wonder if I can become as powerful as Mr. Jiang Li.” Xiaoxiao admired Jiang Li.
“No need to calculate that, there’s no chance. Choose another question.” The little fortune teller waved his hand.
“…”
“Then could you help me calculate when Xia Chao and I will get married?”
“Ahem, Xiaoxiao, don’t ask such questions.” Xia Chao blushed.
The little fortune teller rolled his eyes: “You two are already a couple. Whenever you decide to get married, you can.”
Xiaoxiao and Xia Chao felt uncomfortable under the gaze of the little fortune-teller. It felt as if they had no secrets before him, even the matter about their marriage was known to him.
Moreover, judging by the fortune teller’s expression, it didn’t seem like he merely ‘knew’, it was more like he had witnessed it himself.
“Is this Little Mister really a descendant of the Blue Void Mountain?” A bystander was amazed by the magic performed by the little fortune-teller.
Jiang Li and Yu Yin saw through everything, they just smiled and shook their heads.
Bai Hongtu snorted: “The tale that Blue Void Mountain can tell fortunes is exaggerated.”
“Originally, Blue Void Mountain claimed they could observe heavenly phenomena at night, compute fate, and fooled a lot of people with their vague words. When they couldn’t deceive people any longer, they announced their seclusion in the mountains, in reality, they just changed their name to Observing Stars Sect, stopped fortune-telling and only observed stars.”
“Later on, the Observing Stars Sect changed its name to Observing Mahayana Sect, it gained some prosperity and fooled many people into joining them.”
Bai Hongtu revealed a secret.
“Little Mister, could you calculate when I will become the Human Emperor?” Jiang Li sat down with a smile, wanting to get his fortune read.
“Uncle Jiang!” The little fortune-teller was surprised and recognized Jiang Li at first sight.
“It’s me, Kongkong, where is your father?”
In reality, there was no fortune-teller at all, it was just Ji Kongkong, who was using the powers of time to see clearly into the past.
“Father Emperor said I should participate in the birth of the Confucian sage in his place.” With Jiang Li around, Ji Kongkong stopped her fortune telling antics.
She had recently made advancements in the art of time and mastered the Divergent Eye. Now she did not need to go into the river of time to see the past and future. This made her feel playful, so she came to Gentleman’s Country and set up a stall to tell fortunes.
She had an artifact to conceal her identity given by Ji Zhi which can change her appearance. Even Body Integration Realm cultivators couldn’t see through it.
“Mr. Jiang?!!” Xiaoxiao and Xia Chao also recognized Jiang Li.
“This is not the place to talk, let’s change a place.” Jiang Li led everyone to a teahouse.
“Aunt Yu, Uncle Bai.” Ji Kongkong politely greeted.
“Greetings to the two seniors.” Xiaoxiao and Xia Chao were nervous, they didn’t dare to relax in front of Yu Yin and Bai Hongtu.
