Seeing that Jiang Yuan was really leaving, Gong Suxin knew that if she didn't make a decision soon, she would never find another husband, and then the first unwanted old woman in the Astrology Palace would truly be born.

"Alright, alright, if you don't want to sign the contract, then don't. Let's just see how things go!"

"Let's see how it goes?"

Jiang Yuan was completely bewildered; this thing could actually be used.

“Yes, let’s first form a bond of life and death, then date for a few months and see how it goes. Whether or not to sign a contract is up to you,” Gong Suxin suggested.

What is a symbiotic knot?

Jiang Yuan didn't know the terminology used by diviners, so he could only ask the tortoise shell immortal to answer, and the tortoise shell immortal quickly gave his answer.

The "Twin Life Knot," also known as the "Knot of Cause and Effect," works by intertwining the life lines of two people, establishing a causal connection between them. Diviners can then use this knot to perform a range of operations, from shielding one's destiny from divine secrets to severing karmic ties.

"Will you two be together?" Gong Suxin was the first to extend her hand, her palm bearing her purple life mark.

"interesting!"

Jiang Yuan didn't know why Gong Suxin had approached him, but as things stood, she seemed to have no ill intentions. Given his own cautious nature, he didn't need to worry too much about Gong Suxin harboring malicious intentions.

"make a deal!"

Their life runes began to intertwine, and finally, their life runes formed a sphere, announcing their formal alliance.

...

"Could it be that Jiang Yuan is really just a similar flower?"

Sitting on the astrological altar, Zhong Litong's expression was uncertain. She saw many things through Jiang Yuan's destiny lines, but there was no clue that this Jiang Yuan was the same Jiang Yuan as before, and that their destinies were completely different.

She didn't doubt the appearance of two such similar people. In fact, as an astrologer, she didn't question any coincidences, because the world itself is wondrous, and coincidences are preordained, even in the cycle of reincarnation.

Should we tell her?

Zhong Litong hesitated. This time, the lingering resentment left by the avatar was exceptionally powerful, even affecting the companion god's true form. Regardless of whether it was real or not, it would cause irreparable damage to her eternal Dao heart.

"If we tell her now, it will definitely affect her. Let's wait until she buries everything Ning Yanlan has in the source before we talk about it!"

...

"You brat, instead of going back to heal your injuries, you're heading straight for the Ten Thousand Mountains? Are you out of your mind?"

"Old woman, mind your own business!"

In a lush, green forest, a man and a woman were walking one after the other.

"Who are you calling an old woman? Even a dog can see how young and beautiful I am when I walk down the street. You're not even as good as a dog, are you!"

"And what about you? You keep calling me 'brat,' if you're not old, who is?"

The two stopped and stared at each other.

"Really? I had no idea that Brother Jiang Yuan was so petty!" Gong Suxin gave a fake smile.

Jiang Yuan echoed, "That's right, if Sister Suxin hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known she was so young and beautiful!"

"snort!"

Gong Suxin, being a few years older, took the initiative to say, "Alright, let's be polite. I won't call you 'brat,' and you shouldn't call me 'old woman.'"

"I have no objection!" Jiang Yuan maintained his gentlemanly demeanor.

Gong Suxin adjusted her breathing, then smiled and said, "Jiang Yuan, why are you heading into the Ten Thousand Mountains instead of going back?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yuan deliberately teased Gong Suxin and said, "Sister Suxin, aren't you good at fortune telling? Can you tell what your little brother's purpose is this time?"

"Let me reiterate, a fortune teller makes calculations based on fate, not read your minds. How would I know what your purpose is!" Gong Suxin said irritably.

Jiang Yuan remained noncommittal and slowly explained, "I heard that there is a dark ley line hidden beneath the Ten Thousand Mountains, so I wanted to take advantage of my recent injury and inability to cultivate to search for it."

"Why are you looking for the dark veins? They're in the beastmen's territory, and they're not easy to get!" Gong Suxin clearly knew some information about the dark veins.

"Sister Suxin knows about the Dark Veins?" Jiang Yuan became more interested and his words became sweeter, calling her "sister" with great emotion.

"hehe!"

Gong Suxin looked at Jiang Yuan with disdain. This guy really was judging the matter, not the person.

"Sister Suxin, what kind of look is that? Didn't we agree to cooperate well? Now that you're helping me, you're also helping yourself!" Jiang Yuan said with a forced smile.

"Then how should we divide your previous luck? I'll still get 15%!" Gong Suxin hadn't accepted Jiang Yuan's luck yet, because this guy had offered a 3:7 split of 50%, whereas the agreement had clearly been a 3:7 split of the entire luck. Now, with this distribution, the luck was reduced by half. When had Gong Suxin ever suffered such a loss?

"This..." Jiang Yuan's expression was somewhat unnatural. He explained, "Sister Suxin, as you can see, I suffered as much as you can imagine in order to obtain this fortune."

"Then that's none of my business. Anyway, I only remember that you promised to split it 30/70 at the beginning. Now I only want my 30% of the luck!" Gong Suxin also values ​​luck highly. Whether they are doing divination or strengthening their own destiny, they need the boost of luck. They even seek out a supreme expert so that they can have luck protecting them in the future.

“Sister Suxin, how about I give you 20% of my luck, and then I'll help you refine it? What do you think?” Jiang Yuan asked tentatively.

Refining fortune is countless times more difficult than absorbing it. Someone with a treasure like the Imperial Seal of the State can extract fortune little by little by setting up an array, but refining fortune requires a body with fortune; otherwise, fortune cannot enter the body and one's luck cannot be changed.
