Shui Chu was in a state of mixed emotions. He turned his head to look at the person beside him and asked softly, "Master Qing, with your omniscience, can you predict what our future will be like?"
Upon hearing this, Qingwu's previously calm face froze for a moment, then furrowed his brows slightly, his tone unconsciously growing heavier. "The future is like the vast starry sky, filled with countless unknown variables and unpredictable coincidences. Even someone like me, who understands even a little bit of the mysteries of heaven, cannot accurately depict the future."
After saying this, a hint of sadness crossed Qingwu's brows. He slowly continued, "But according to my previous deductions and divinations, a calamity will inevitably arise in the future. This calamity may be small in scale, confined to a corner of the world, or perhaps its impact will be vast, affecting all people. As for its ultimate direction and consequences, whether it can be controlled by human power or will exceed everyone's expectations, it is truly difficult to say. The key to all this lies in whether those who are burdened with special destinies can use their own strength and wisdom to change their fate and turn the tide."
Hearing this, Shui Chu lowered his eyes, his tone still as usual: "Someone with a special fate? Could such a person really exist?"
Qingwu nodded affirmatively and explained solemnly, "As the saying goes, yin and yang complement and counteract each other, good and evil stand opposite each other. In this vast world, there is naturally a distinction between justice and evil. Those who represent the righteous side are destined to collide with the evil forces. Only when these people with special destinies step forward and shoulder the heavy responsibility of saving the people can they break the shackles of fate."
After Qingwu finished speaking, he didn't hear any response from the other party.
He quickly asked, "Am I explaining something too profound?"
"No." Shui Chu shook his head slowly.
Shui Chu stared at Qing Wu and wanted to ask him to tell his fortune, but after thinking about it, he swallowed his words.
Sometimes knowing the future may not necessarily be a good thing for the present.
Qing Wu suddenly remembered something and looked at Shui Chu and said, "Mr. Shui, what are the names of your relatives? What are their birth dates?"
Shui Chu heard this and stared at him quietly for a while.
Then he slowly spoke, "Her surname is Chen and her name is Yan. She was born in..."
Before he could finish, Qingwu's eyes widened in shock.
"Chen Yan?!"
"Chen Yan is your relative?"
"Shui Chu isn't your real name, is it?"
"Your last name should be Shen, Shen...Shen Chu! You are——"
“Shen Huai!”
Qingwu reached out and grabbed the boy's wrist tightly. Without waiting for the other party to answer, he had already sorted out his thoughts and guessed the other party's identity.
If Qingwu was not blind now, he would probably see that the boy's face was about 80% similar to Chen Yan's.
The young man was Shen Huai.
His brows turned fierce, and he stared at Qing Wu with sharp eyes. He restrained Qing Wu's hand with his backhand, but asked in an unusually calm tone: "Master Qing, do you know me?"
There was a hint of danger in his tone.
Qing Wu keenly sensed the murderous intent emanating from the other party, and he quickly explained, "I know your sister Chen Yan. I'm Chen Yan's friend, and she mentioned you to me."
After hearing these words, Shen Huai's eyes lost some of their coldness.
His tone remained calm. "You are her friend? What's the proof?"
Qing Wu choked upon hearing this, then he took a deep breath, his expression returning to seriousness as he looked at Shen Huai and said in a deep voice, "Actually, I am Qing Wuzi, the Grand Master of the Tianzhou Dynasty. I know you are Shen Huai, the reincarnation of Shen Chu. Logically, I should still call you Little Prince."
Shen Huai’s expression changed.
Great Grand Master?!
The next moment, Shen Huai's hand suddenly pinched Qing Wu. His brows were cold and his tone was extremely cold: "When the Shen family disappeared, were you the one behind it?"
Qing Wu was shocked by the other party's behavior. He said anxiously: "No!"
"Why is that?!" Shen Huai's eyes turned cold.
Qingwu was speechless, as he didn't know the truth of what happened back then.
Although he is the reincarnation of the great national teacher, he has not yet fully awakened his original memories.
He is only half-baked now.
Qing Wu felt that breathing was becoming more and more difficult. His face flushed red and he squeezed out a word from his throat: "Chen Huai, calm down!"
Shen Huai pursed his lips and finally released the strength in his hands.
Let him go.
"Cough... cough..." Qingwu suddenly leaned over and started coughing.
Shen Huai tried hard to calm the emotions surging in his heart.
At this moment, he is Shen Huai, but he is more than just Shen Huai - because deep in his mind, there is a memory unique to Shen Chu in his previous life.
It was a long and painful memory.
Over eight hundred years ago, he endured endless humiliation and torture, struggling to survive in the darkness, each step arduous. The pain that penetrated his bones nearly brought him to the brink of collapse, even to the point of wanting to die...
Even in the face of all this, he still did not give up, and always tried his best to protect the Tianzhou Dynasty, which carried the efforts and glory of countless ancestors.
However, despite all his efforts, the Tianzhou Dynasty ultimately could not escape the fate of destruction.
The great achievements made by our predecessors came to an end in his hands.
Thinking of this, Shen Huai's eyes couldn't help but turn red slightly.
But the moment he lowered his eyes, that trace of fragility quickly receded like the tide, replaced by a cold and indifferent look that seemed to keep people at a distance.
"You said you were the Grand Master of the Tianzhou Dynasty. Then, can you calculate my sister's current position?"
Qing Wu sensed the dangerous aura emanating from the other party and was secretly frightened. At the same time, he was thinking: He was gentle and polite a few days ago, but now he seems like a different person.
He replied quickly.
"She should be in Yunzhou City. I came to Yunzhou City this time to look for her."
Hearing this, Shen Huai's eyes flashed with joy.
He quickly suppressed his anger and his tone returned to a calm tone: "Sorry, I lost my composure just now."
Qingwu: “???” Why did his attitude change again?!
"It's okay, it's okay." Qingwu smiled fakely.
Shen Huai said softly: "Grand Master, since our goals are the same, let's work together from now on."
"Okay, okay." Qingwu nodded stiffly.
Shen Huai asked, "Grand Master, do you have any clues about the mysterious disappearance of the Shen family?"
"My memory is incomplete now, so I don't know what happened back then." Qing Wu said quickly, "But I predict that the Shen family will appear one day in the future and gradually gather around Chen Yan."
