NOVEL NEXT Chapter 30 - Departure, Finding Someone
With such a pleasant surprise, it was necessary to make a trip in person.
If he could bring the person back, the Embracing Moon Sect would have two disciples suspected of possessing protagonist templates, and his own strength could also increase again. Why not do it?
Lin Fan immediately decided to set off!
Before this, he was really a little scared.
What if he got himself involved?
But now, he was willing to take this risk!
“The sect-protecting formation is fully activated. Don’t worry about the consumption. Only the seven of them are here during our absence. Without this, safety cannot be guaranteed.”
“Maintain contact with Fifth Elder at all times. If there are no accidents, let them return on their own.”
“As for us…”
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes slightly: “Let’s meet the person who meets the eighth sect rule.”
“Let’s go!”
The five soared into the air and rushed towards Hongwu Immortal City.
“Sect master and the others have already set off. Let’s go too.”
“Lest there be unexpected changes.”
“Yes, Fifth Elder.”
Duan Qingyao and Xiao Ling’er, who had completely changed their appearances, also quietly set off…
Outside the inn, some people were constantly watching. Although they were doing it very covertly, they could not escape the eyes of Liang Danxia, this ‘old monster’.
However, these people never expected that Duan Qingyao and Xiao Ling’er could not only change their appearances but also change their divine sense fluctuations and aura. Then, they left from under their noses in such a grand manner.
They went all the way unimpeded!
No one noticed until they left Hongwu Immortal City, but neither of them relaxed their vigilance.
“Let’s take a detour.”
Duan Qingyao whispered: “There are many people outside the city, and some of them will be more careful. Perhaps they will pay attention to or even track anyone going to the Embracing Moon Sect.”
“Therefore, let’s go west first, and when we reach a deserted place, we will turn back and return to the Embracing Moon Sect from the side.”
“We will follow your arrangements.”
Xiao Ling’er, disguised as an old woman, nodded lightly.
And Duan Qingyao at this moment, from the outside, was a rough old man…
The two left in a low-key manner. Thanks to the power of this transformation technique, they were not discovered.
Even if there were some ‘unexpected situations’, Duan Qingyao’s strength could resolve them.
On the other side, Fan Jianqiang hid in the dark, took out his portable divination tools, and performed a divination for himself.
“Eh?”
“Great fortune?”
The result surprised him: “For so long, one divination every day, this is the first time I have received a great fortune omen. In this way, it must not be missed!”
“According to the divination, outside the northeast city gate, disguised as a fortune teller.”
He frowned slightly: “I originally wanted to leave quietly, but now it seems that leaving quietly is not the best choice. As long as I am careful, there should be no accidents.”
A moment later, Fan Jianqiang packed up.
With a shake of his body, he transformed into a middle-aged fortune teller.
He held a canvas banner with the four characters ‘Iron Mouth Direct Judgment’ written on it.
Then, he left his hiding place in such a grand manner…
Not long after, outside the northwest city gate, among a large number of ‘stalls’, there was one more fortune-telling stall.
Time passed, and the sun gradually set.
Fan Jianqiang was not in a hurry. He accepted anyone who came to tell fortunes. He accepted spirit stones, and he did not dislike copper coins or silver. In addition, he really had some skills and calculated quite accurately. The number of people in front of his stall not only did not decrease but increased.
From time to time, there were sounds of breaking through the air in the sky.
Cultivators came and went, which was very lively.
While telling fortunes, Fan Jianqiang’s eyes had a somewhat sly look, constantly paying attention to the surroundings, ready to run away at any time.
“Even if it is a great fortune omen, if there is danger, I will run away at the first time.”
“Great fortune omens can wait slowly, but if my life is gone, then it will really be over. It’s not worth it!”
This guy shook his head and his eyes rolled straight.
“They have already left, and the journey is quite safe.”
Wu Xingyun and Lin Fan arrived outside Hongwu Immortal City.
The other three elders went to respond to Xiao Ling’er and the two from the side.
However, unless Xiao Ling’er encountered danger, they would not show up.
Wu Xingyun protected Lin Fan and landed outside the northwest gate: “However, the person who meets the eighth sect rule is probably not easy to find.”
“Hmm.”
Lin Fan nodded: “Since he is extremely cautious, he will naturally hide himself deeper than anyone else, and… there is probably a little bit of a trump card.”
Wu Xingyun understood half of it.
Hiding deeply was understandable.
But a little bit of a trump card?
What cultivator didn’t have such things?
“Let’s just follow fate.”
Lin Fan was also a little helpless.
He naturally hoped to get another disciple with a protagonist template, but this kind of thing was hard to say and really depended on fate.
“There are so many people lined up over there?”
With a sweep of his eyes, he saw a stall.
Logically speaking, those who set up stalls outside the city should be some third-rate people; otherwise, wouldn’t it be better to go to the city?
But that stall was crowded with people, which was really hard not to notice.
“Iron rule Direct Judgment?”
Wu Xingyun swept his divine sense: “A fortune teller.”
“With so many people, he should be quite accurate.”
“Oh?”
Lin Fan’s eyes lit up: “Then let’s go and have him tell our fortunes.”
“That Fan Jianqiang is a cultivator, but he has no cultivation. I’m afraid he can’t calculate it. How can mortals bear the cause and effect of cultivators?” Wu Xingyun was not optimistic.
“What’s the harm in trying?”
Lin Fan still wanted to try.
It was not a flash of inspiration, but he simply wanted to try whether the fortune tellers in the cultivation world had real skills or were like the swindlers he had encountered before he transmigrated, who only knew how to deceive and swindle.
He still remembered meeting a fortune teller a few years ago. That damned guy jumped out and said, “Little brother, I see that your forehead is dark, and there is a bloody disaster!”
Lin Fan naturally did not believe such a ‘classic’ line. As a result, the other party said, “Don’t disbelieve me. Let me calculate for you first, and see if I am right or not. You… your father died before your mother!”
Lin Fan thought for a while, damn, it’s really accurate!
Then he was swindled out of half a month’s salary by the other party.
It was not until a few days later that he realized that this guy was a swindler.
What ‘father died before mother’, wasn’t this a universal saying?!
Any explanation was correct!
Did the father die first? Correct.
Did the mother leave first? Also correct. The father is there, and the mother died first!
Even if both were alive, it could be said to be correct because there was no way to expose it temporarily.
He couldn’t become a living Yama and kill the two elders on the spot just to say that the fortune teller was inaccurate, right?!
But since the Immortal Martial Continent was a world of cultivation, it shouldn’t be all swindlers, right?
Moreover, this fortune teller set up a stall at the gate of the immortal city, and there were so many people supporting him. He must be a capable person.
Lin Fan rolled his eyes: “Second Elder, let’s do this and that.”
“If he can pass the test, it should not be difficult to find Fan Jianqiang.”
“If he can’t pass, we will only lose a spirit stone.”
“As the sect master says.”
Seeing Lin Fan insist, Wu Xingyun naturally could not refuse, and immediately stepped forward, exchanging a spirit stone for a front position. The person was just an ordinary person. Getting the spirit stone naturally made him overjoyed and thanked him profusely before leaving.
“Next.”
Fan Jianqiang spoke, and Wu Xingyun stepped forward.
