Qin Jue carried Xiao Xi'er away from there, heading towards the carriage.

"Daddy, why won't you let me see?"

"Because it's too dirty, Daddy's afraid Little Xi'er will have nightmares at night."

"AoAo"

"I'm so sleepy, Daddy."

"Little Xi'er can sleep once we get in the car."

"Uh-huh"

The father and daughter strolled leisurely, chatting as they walked. They hadn't gone far when they heard voices approaching.

"donor"

Qin Jue turned around upon hearing the sound and saw a monk with a young monk. After making sure that Zou Heng could no longer see them, he released his hand from Xiao Xi'er's eyes.

"A bald monk on the street late at night?"

The monk was stunned when he heard Qin Jue address him. After a moment of hesitation, he walked up to Qin Jue.

"Huh~, you asked about no hair?"

"Young benefactor, I am a monk, and monks do not have hair."

"Oh, can I eat this?"

"...cannot be eaten"

"Alright then."

As Xiao Xi'er grew bored, she turned and leaned on Qin Jue's shoulder. Qin Jue was about to leave when the monk called him back.

"Please wait, benefactor."

"What else do you want to say?"

The monk held his prayer beads in front of his chest and bowed slightly.

"My benefactor, your destiny has changed."

I've never believed in these things.

After saying that, Qin Jue started to leave. At that moment, Zou Heng also arrived.

“Benefactor, don’t you care about yourself, or this young benefactor?”

Upon hearing the monk's words, Qin Jue stopped and looked at him sharply.

“Benefactor, just now I saw from afar that your fate has changed. Logically speaking, you should not have a good end, and your family should be destroyed.”

"But after this old monk examined you carefully, I found that your future destiny is one of peace and prosperity, with many children and grandchildren."

"Bald monk, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"This old monk would like to know who changed your fate?"

After the monk finished speaking, Zou Heng immediately took out a short knife and held it to the monk's neck.

"Heh~, I never need to steal other people's destinies."

"So it seems he was influenced by the people around him."

Qin Jue found the conversation uninteresting and started walking forward, but stopped when he heard the monk's words.

"This young benefactor should have died long ago."

Upon hearing the monk's words, Qin Jue's murderous aura surged towards the monk.

"Someone changed this benefactor's fate."

"unmanned"

"That's strange, this young benefactor should have died at birth."

Upon hearing the monk repeatedly say that Xiao Xi'er should have been dead and that she had died at birth, Qin Jue reached out to strangle the monk.

But the monk stepped back and dodged it.

"Esteemed benefactor, I cannot discern this young benefactor's destiny."

"All we know is that this young benefactor was supposed to die young, but he didn't. People he shouldn't have crossed paths with all became his, and it seems he can change the fate of those around him."

"Therefore, whether this young benefactor's future path is easy or not depends on this young benefactor."

"If this young benefactor survived by exchanging someone else's life, I can only say that he will die without a proper burial."

"This old monk has said all I have to say. It is best for you, benefactor, to refrain from committing murder, otherwise you and those around you will not meet a good end."

After saying this, the monk left with his disciple.

Before leaving, he glanced in the direction where Jun Qingzhi was, and then said...

The more they interact, the more unpredictable the future becomes. It might benefit both of them, or it might ruin their lives.

Jun Qingzhi, who was hiding in the shadows, heard the monk's words, thought for a while, and then remained silent.

Zou Heng watched the monk walk away, then looked at Qin Jue.

"Master, should I go and finish him off?"

"No need, let's go back and clean up the mess behind us."

"yes"

Zou Heng used his light-footed skill to arrive beside Jun Qingzhi and the others. "Young Master Jun, please return."

"What if we don't?"

Jun Qingzhi looked at Zou Heng and continued without fear.

"Then don't blame me for being impolite..."

"Brother, my young master was just joking."

Yu He came out and looked at Zou Heng, saying...

After a while, Zou Heng confirmed that Qin Jue had left, so he used his light-foot technique to disappear.

"Young master, let's go back too."

"Um"

Jun Qingzhi also walked towards her residence.

"Go and investigate, monk."

“Young master, that is Master Guangyuan of Guangluo Temple. The little monk next to Master Guangyuan is his disciple, whose name is ‘Wu Nian’.”

"From Yuan Anguo?"

"yes"

Jun Qingzhi recalled Guangyuan's last words to her, and was puzzled.

After Qin Jue carried Xiao Xi'er back to the palace, Xiao Xi'er was already fast asleep, dreaming sweet dreams.

Qin Jue carried Xiao Xi'er into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, undressed her, covered her with a blanket, and then left the hall.

"Yu Ying"

"What's wrong, Derivatives?"

"Send someone to the Imperial Preceptor's residence to inform him to end his travels and return to the palace."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

After Yu Ying left, Qin Jue went into the Hall of Mental Cultivation. After seeing that Qin Jue had fallen asleep, Sanhezi summoned three guards to stand watch and then returned to his own quarters.

Palace Academy

"Hey Erguo, what brings you here?"

"I'm coming to school too!"

"AoAo"

Xiao Xi'er had just parted ways with Qin Jue when she saw Qin Jingmu.

"Where did you go yesterday, little sister? I went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to look for you, but I couldn't find you anywhere."

"I went out of the palace with Daddy yesterday~"
