Xiao Han had originally thought that this blue-robed fortune-teller was just an identity that the Immortal had created to fool around in the mortal world.
The so-called fortune-telling was just a pretense.
But now, it seemed that was not the case.
The short-sleeved scholar with a folding fan had already collapsed in front of the blue-robed fortune-teller's stall. His voice was filled with tears, and he was kowtowing as if he was pounding garlic with his head. "Living Immortal!
You really are a living Immortal!
Just now, this lowly one's words offended the Living Immortal. I hope that the Living Immortal will forgive this lowly one's mistake and not take it to heart … Indeed, that bitch of mine was having sex with my neighbor, Zhang Da Mazi. When this lowly one went back just now, he happened to see them. The two of them were passionately in love and had a good time.
I gave them a good beating and they both confessed … Sigh, it's all in vain that I've been running around all year round … Sigh … I've been on guard day and night … "
The short-sleeved scholar with a folding fan had fainted from crying and was carried away by the people around him.
At this moment, the scene was completely silent. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the blue-robed fortune-teller.
Xiao Han said in a serious tone.
"Mister, please read my fortune for me."
"No problem, no problem." The blue-robed fortune-teller's eyes were also focused. Circles of dazzling halos shot out from his eyes like dazzling gems.
"You want to read your fortune and misfortune in the future? Fine … I'll do it for you!"
"Hmm … You've already gone through a major calamity … Sigh … In your life, one calamity has just passed, and another calamity has arisen … In the next few years, your calamities will be crueler than the one before … Each calamity will be more difficult than the one before … Your fate is full of misfortune … Let me see if you can survive each calamity …" The blue-robed fortune-teller's expression became more and more serious.
He pinched his fingers together and calculated.
Shockingly!
The blue-robed fortune-teller.
His hands moved faster and faster.
He stared at Xiao Han, and his forehead was instantly covered with dense beads of sweat!
"What … What's going on … I've divined everything in the universe, the past and the future … Why can't I divine your future … I can only vaguely divine that your future will be filled with calamities and misfortunes, but I can't divine whether or not you'll be able to survive those calamities … In fact, to me, your future …
What's going on … This … I can't divine it, I can't divine it … "The blue-robed fortune-teller's face was filled with panic. His facial features were distorted, and he looked as if he had entered a state of cultivation deviation.
Suddenly …
"Pu ~ ~ ~ ~ ~" A mouthful of blood sprayed out from his mouth!
"Mister, you!" Xiao Han was also flustered by the situation.
At this moment, Jia Lanzi, who had been standing at the back, spoke gently.
"Master Divine Diviner.
Why do you have to do this? "
Xiao Han could vaguely feel that something was amiss.
A gentle Immortal Qi emanated from Jia Lanzi's body and enveloped the blue-robed fortune-teller.
Immediately after, the blue-robed fortune-teller's expression relaxed, and he once again glowed with a gentle luster. He raised his eyes to look at Jia Lanzi, and his eyes were filled with shock.
Then, he said in a low voice, "Forgive my poor eyesight, Brother Jia Lanzi, you've come as well …"
…
Noon.
Xiao Han, Jia Lanzi, and the blue-robed fortune-teller sat in a private room of an elegant restaurant in Dragon Subduing City.
The table was filled with delicacies.
The blue-robed fortune-teller, the Divine Diviner, devoured the delicacies on the table like a gust of wind. His table manners were extremely unsightly.
"This … Divine Diviner, you're an Immortal after all. Can you not eat in such an unsightly manner …" Jia Lanzi took off his cloak and revealed his true appearance with a wry smile.
"The delicacies of the mundane world are truly unbearable. In fact, they're not inferior to the delicacies of the Celestial Realm … Hmm … Xiao Han, I didn't expect you to be with Jia Lanzi …" The Divine Diviner wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth and looked at Xiao Han again. "How strange. I, the Divine Diviner, am a disciple of the Divine Diviner Sect in the Celestial Realm. In terms of fortune-telling, no one can surpass me among the younger generation of Immortals, but I can't divine Brother Xiao's fate … It seems like Brother Xiao's future is beyond our control …"
"I can even divine the fate of Immortals, but why can't I divine the fate of a mortal?"
Jia Lanzi smiled and said, "Let nature take its course. Don't force it."
"Let's get straight to the point.
Master Godly Diviner, we came to Xiao Han's realm to get a spot to enter the second level of the Jue Dao Immortal Emperor's treasure … Therefore, we have to respect Xiao Han and not force him.
This is the will of my sect, as well as the will of the big shots above.
Divine Diviner, there are a total of three hundred Immortals who have come to Xiao Han's realm, but there are only two hundred spots … Hmm, it's up to Xiao Han to decide how to distribute the spots. Do you have any objections? "
The Divine Diviner licked his lips and said, "Of course I have no objections …"
"Since it's the will of your sect and the higher-ups, I, the Divine Diviner, naturally won't dare to stand out. I'll comply."
"Hmm, good." Jia Lanzi smiled warmly and looked at Xiao Han.
"Brother Xiao, it's up to you whether or not to give the Divine Diviner a spot."
"Oh?" Xiao Han was taken aback.
All of a sudden, Master God-Diviner rose to his feet and bowed deeply to Xiao Han. "Brother Xiao, I'm Master God-Diviner, a disciple of the Divine Diviner Sect in the Immortal World. It took a great deal of effort, including the sectmaster and the elders, to open a space-time tunnel that allowed me to teleport here. I'm truly burdened with the responsibility of revitalizing the sect. I hope Brother Xiao will be lenient and grant me a spot. I'll be eternally grateful."
"Divine Diviner, you … you don't have to do this."
Xiao Han could never have guessed that Master God-Diviner, an Immortal whose battle prowess and position in the Immortal World couldn't match up to Jia Lanzi, would actually lower himself to a mortal. What a strange person ….
"Divine Diviner, please take a seat," Xiao Han said graciously.
The Divine Diviner was very nervous, but he still sat down.
"It's like this …" Xiao Han said, calculating in his mind.
"There are two hundred and sixty-nine spots on my side.
Among them.
In my plane of existence.
There are thirty-nine spots for mortals … and some of the most outstanding people in this plane would like to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to try their luck with immortality.
I've also promised thirty spots to mortal heroes from other planes. In other words … there are two hundred spots for you immortals … "
"Gasp!"
Master Divine Diviner gasped. "More than three hundred immortals fighting for two hundred spots … that's … that's not good …"
"Too many monks, not enough gruel …"
Then …
Master Divine Diviner looked at Xiao Han with tears in his eyes.
"Brother Xiao, about the spots … um … could you make an exception …?"
"Hahahahaha …" Xiao Han burst into laughter.
"Master God-Diviner, you're a kind immortal, and you've never done anything evil in the mortal world. There's no reason for me not to give you a spot.... Besides, you're the first immortal I've ever taken the initiative to find. You're very lucky.
That's fine. "
"What?!!!
You're really giving me a spot? "Master Divine Diviner cried out in joy.
"Brother Xiao, you're a true friend!
Hahaha! "
"Xiao Han, have you decided to give Master Divine Diviner a spot?" Jia Lanzi asked.
"Mm.
It's decided then. "Xiao Han didn't hesitate.
"Very well." Jia Lanzi took out a jade tablet and a jade pen, then began to carefully inscribe.
"Master Divine Diviner, I'll record down your spot now.
In these few years, if you don't commit any crimes in this realm, then before you enter the second level of the Immortal Emperor's Treasure Vault, Xiao Han and I will inform you to come to the Unity Mountain Range and meet us. "
"Yes, yes, I'll follow the rules," Master Divine Diviner hurriedly said.
… …
After lunch, Xiao Han and Jia Lanzi continued on their way to find the next immortal to decide whether or not to give him a spot.
Master Divine Diviner didn't follow them. He stayed in Hidden Dragon City to read the fortunes of mortals.
With his godly skills, he had already gained the recognition of the locals and passersby in the Hidden Dragon City. Presumably, in the next few years, the Godly Diviner would become a glorious legend in the Hidden Dragon City, a legend that would be talked about enthusiastically in the future.
… …
"Brother Xiao, you should be able to handle the distribution of spots now, right?" Jia Lanzi smiled.
"It's simple indeed." Xiao Han smiled lightly.
"But the first one I met was Master Divine Diviner. He's gentle and easygoing, so giving him a spot is only natural.
But not every immortal that descends is like Master Divine Diviner … "
"Mm, let's continue."
Jia Lanzi nodded slightly, then put on his cloak again, covering his face and aura perfectly.
"Whoosh ~"
Xiao Han activated his true qi again, conjuring a Glacial Dragon. The two stood on its head and flew out of Hidden Dragon City.
Soon, the Glacial Dragon crossed the border of the Fire Beacon Empire and entered the Blazing Sun Empire.
Xiao Han sat cross-legged on the Glacial Dragon's head, his psychic waves spreading out as he carefully sensed the immortal Qi closest to him.
He'd already found the first immortal, Master Divine Diviner. To Xiao Han, finding him again was a piece of cake.
"No immortals have descended in the Blazing Sun Empire ~"
Xiao Han's psychic waves extended out of the Blazing Sun Empire.
He began to search in the Ravager Empire bordering the Blazing Sun Empire.
"Ha ~ ~ ~ ~ Brother Xiao's divine ability has saved me a lot of effort," Jia Lanzi praised from the side.
Xiao Han smiled wordlessly and continued his search.
Finally, hard work paid off. In the Southern Domain, in the Ami Empire, Xiao Han found his second target!
"Let's go ~ ~ ~ ~ 'Ah Mi Empire' …" Xiao Han willed, and the Glacial Chi-Dragon flew towards the 'Ah Mi Empire', carrying one person and one immortal.
… …
The Southern Domain.
The Ami Empire.
The Imperial City.
Compared to the Fire Beacon Empire and the Blazing Sun Empire, the Ami Empire was considered a weak empire.
Even the Imperial City, in its core region, did not seem all that rich.
At this time, in the Imperial City, the passersby on the streets and alleys were all deeply worried, frustration and depression blossoming in the depths of their eyes.
Men and women, old and young, all had ashen faces.
"Sigh ~ Ever since that person came to our Ami Empire, we've really … suffered!
Sigh! "An old woman stood outside a tavern, looking around. The tavern was empty.
A young girl next to her quickly pulled the old woman in and whispered, "Mother, don't talk nonsense.
"Mother, don't talk nonsense. Be careful of being heard by that person, then we'll be in trouble …"
… …
… …
