Fang Xiu didn't care what Wu Chou Immortal Venerable was thinking; he only wanted to tell fortunes.
"Hands out."
Immortal Venerable Wu Chou extended his hand generously, showing no fear of Fang Xiu's ruthless attack, because this was Liuyun Immortal City, and even more so because he was an Immortal Venerable.
He is very confident in his own abilities and the power behind him.
However, when Fang Xiu was examining his bones, he was cautious and secretly mobilized his own power to protect himself, fearing that he might be caught off guard.
After Fang Xiu finished touching the bones, he carefully examined the whole body and found that nothing had been done to him. Only then did he secretly relax his vigilance. He did not believe that a true immortal's little tricks could fool his eyes.
After obtaining the information about Wu Chou Immortal Venerable's destiny, Fang Xiu immediately activated the power of time and destiny. Under the dual effect of these two supreme powers, his eyes traversed the river of destiny and saw Wu Chou Immortal Venerable's past, present, and future.
Wu Chou Immortal Venerable was born into a small family in the Liuyun Immortal Dynasty. From a young age, he was the hope of his family and was hailed as the pride of heaven. His first half of life was smooth sailing and he was full of ambition. Later, when he came to Liuyun Immortal City, he saw the vastness of the world and was greatly discouraged.
It's like the top student in a regular junior high school getting into the top class of a prestigious high school, only to suddenly realize that geniuses abound there, and your own talent is just at the bottom.
After a period of despair, he indulged in revelry every day until his family was wiped out by a powerful enemy. Only then did he realize his mistake and stop seeking pleasure. In the end, thanks to his years of experience in indulging in revelry and his good looks, he successfully married the daughter of a celestial official in the Liuyun Immortal Dynasty.
With the help of his father-in-law's resources, he not only made great strides in his cultivation, but also successfully entered the Law Enforcement Hall, became the deputy hall master, and took revenge along the way, becoming a winner in life.
After reviewing the past, Fang Xiu began to examine Wu Chou Immortal Venerable's future, only to discover that the other party's future consisted of just one day.
To be precise, it will be half a day, because Immortal Venerable Wu Chou will die at midnight tonight.
The future scene shows that after spending the night with his wife, Wu Chou Xianzun will go to his meditation room to cultivate alone. Then, at midnight, he will suffer a qi deviation and become a monster covered in red whiskers. He will go on a killing spree in his home and will eventually be eliminated by the Enforcement Hall.
Seeing this future, Fang Xiu couldn't help but frown.
In the present world, spirit masters may lose control of their minds and undergo mutations, transforming from humans into monsters. This is because spirit masters cultivate the Law of Life and Death, which is what the people of Kyushu call demonic cultivation.
They have short lifespans, cultivate quickly, and are extremely prone to going astray and becoming possessed by evil spirits.
This is very common in the modern world.
But why did Wu Chou, the Immortal Venerable who practiced meditation, also go astray?
Logically speaking, the risk of losing control of the visualization method is a hundred times lower than that of the life and death method. How could someone who has already cultivated to the level of an immortal be so easily prone to demonic possession?
Moreover, according to future images, this kind of demonic possession occurs without any warning.
Fang Xiu had seen through Wu Chou's past, present, and future, and could be said to know his life inside and out, but he still couldn't find out what caused him to go astray.
It was just normal cultivation, and then he went astray and became possessed by a demon.
Could it be...?
Fang Xiu couldn't help but think of what Wu Chou had done before he started cultivating. Perhaps it was because his wife was too ugly that he was traumatized after their intimacy, which caused him to be distracted and make a mistake during his cultivation.
That might be one reason, but Fang Xiu felt that the real reason was probably not like that. After all, Wu Chou had been married for a long time and had been intimate with her countless times. If there were any lingering resentment, it would have erupted long ago.
Or is it that the shadow has always been there, but it has been accumulating, and tonight it just happened to reach the limit of endurance?
Seeing that Fang Xiu remained silent for a long time, Wu Chou Immortal Venerable couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He was really just pretending to be a god. No matter how skilled he was at deducing the secrets of heaven, he was not even an Immortal Lord himself, yet he wanted to deduce the fate of an Immortal Venerable.
He assumed that Fang Xiu simply couldn't figure it out.
"Zhou Qingfeng, how much longer are you going to calculate?"
Fang Xiu slowly came to his senses and calmly said, "It's over."
Wu Chou Immortal Venerable sneered again, "Keep pretending, keep pretending."
"I heard from them that Immortal Lord Nan'e consulted you before he died to have his fortune told. So, could you also tell my fortune?"
Fang Xiu nodded: "You are destined for bloodshed."
Upon hearing this, the onlookers were all stunned. Why did these words sound so familiar? It seemed that this was exactly how Immortal Lord Nan E had died.
Bloodshed! Another bloodshed!
Some people are already wondering, why is it that no matter who you are, you always suffer bloodshed?
Immortal Venerable Wu Chou narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them. He slowly withdrew his hand from the table, sat up straight, and said calmly, "So, are you going to count down three, two, one now?"
Fang Xiu shook his head: "Not so fast. You are much luckier than Immortal Lord Nan E. You will not die until midnight tonight."
These words made Wu Chou Immortal Venerable's brow twitch, and he almost couldn't help but take action. This is what you call luck? Is dying tonight really that lucky?
The onlookers looked at Fang Xiu with surprise and doubt. They did not expect that this Zhou Qingfeng was really bold. It was one thing to plot the death of a Celestial Lord, but now he even dared to provoke the people of the Law Enforcement Hall of Liuyun Celestial City.
Indeed, Fang Xiu's words were seen as a provocation by everyone: "There will be bloodshed at noon tonight," which translates to "I will kill you at noon tonight."
No one believed in Fang Xiu's ability to deduce heavenly secrets, because the example of the Southern Crocodile Immortal Lord was right there for all to see.
The surprised and doubtful looks from the crowd made Fang Xiu realize that he probably wouldn't have a smooth journey in the path of fortune telling. There was nothing he could do about it; if he told one fortune, it would bring bloodshed, and if he told two, it would also bring bloodshed, and both would lead to a quick death.
To be honest, even he himself wouldn't have believed it if he hadn't seen the future with his own eyes.
Suppressing his displeasure, Wu Chou Immortal Venerable asked again, "Then why did I die?"
"He went into a state of demonic possession during cultivation."
"Possessing demonic possession?" Wu Chou Immortal Venerable was taken aback at first, then flew into a rage. He realized he had been tricked and stood up abruptly: "This is utter nonsense! I have neither cultivated any evil arts nor overindulged in pills. I have cultivated steadily for a thousand years and have never shown any signs of possessing demonic possession. Now you actually say that I will die from possessing demonic possession tonight?"
Guards, take him back to the Heavenly Prison! He cannot be released until the case of the Southern Crocodile Immortal Lord is solved.
"Didn't you say I'd suffer a qi deviation during cultivation at midnight tonight? Very well, I will definitely cultivate at midnight tonight. If I truly die, then it proves your calculations were accurate, and that you didn't kill Immortal Lord Nan'e; it was fate. But, if I don't die..."
Wu Chou Immortal Venerable's eyes flashed coldly as he stared straight at Fang Xiu: "Then that means you're lying. You not only killed Southern Crocodile Immortal Lord, but you also attempted to kill the Deputy Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall of Flowing Cloud Immortal City. No matter what kind of backer you have, these two crimes are enough to make you die without a burial place!"
Faced with the threat of a Celestial Venerable, Fang Xiu merely glanced at him indifferently and calmly said, "Enough with the nonsense, let's go."
He also planned to go to the Heavenly Prison to await the outcome at midnight tonight, because the death of Immortal Venerable Wu Chou was truly suspicious, and he always felt that there was some kind of secret involved.
