The fortune teller sighed helplessly, then calculated with his fingers.
"As the possessor of the Great Dao's origin, his fate cannot be calculated at all."
"Fine, I'll just do my best. Who told me the orthodox sects to have such a weakness? This is no job for a human; even a god couldn't do it."
The fortune teller shook his head and followed them down from the watchtower.
...
"Shen Zhao, try the dish I made. It's the first time I've ever cooked it. Does it smell good?"
Inside the guest tent, Yu Xiyan warmly placed a plate of dishes in front of Shen Zhao.
Shen Zhao picked up her rice bowl and said softly, "Why do you have to do such rough work yourself?"
Yu Xiyan grasped his hand, her eyes red with tears: "I'm willing. This is what a wife should do."
You know what? I've been practicing for a long time, as long as... as long as you like it..."
Shen Zhao put down his chopsticks and took Yu Xiyan's hand in return.
"Xi Yan, I don't need you to do these things. As long as you are doing well, that's enough."
"I'm not doing well without you by my side." Yu Xiyan burst into tears. "Please, Shen Zhao, stop torturing me like this, okay?"
I really can't stand life without you, please have pity on me.
Shen Zhao gently wiped away her tears: "Xi Yan, don't cry. I understand how you feel. I forgive you."
Really?
When have I ever lied to you?
Yu Xiyan immediately stopped crying and started laughing, and kept putting food into Chen Zhao's bowl.
"Come on, eat more..."
Outside the tent, the fortune teller saw this scene and couldn't help but sigh.
Then, turning her head to look at Shen Zhao, whose expression was cold and stern: "She has severe delusions."
This is a sign that resentment is beginning to backfire on her consciousness and soul. In truth, she is also a pitiful person controlled by the Daoist tradition.
"Right now, only you can suppress that resentment, Shen Zhao. Even for the sake of the Nine Realms' safety, you should still give it a try."
Shen Zhao watched coldly as Yu Xiyan talked to herself at an empty table, constantly putting food into a bowl.
He then strode into the tent.
Who is it?
Startled awake by the commotion, Yu Xiyan looked up and saw Shen Zhao, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.
Looking back, Shen Zhao was nowhere to be seen on the empty table.
Suddenly, she heard a soft ringing in her ears.
"Is it just wishful thinking again?"
Shaking her head, Yu Xiyan forced a smile, stood up, and said to Shen Zhao, "Shen Zhao, is there anything I can do for you?"
Shen Zhao glanced at the food on the table, then said to Yu Xiyan expressionlessly, "I am going on a diplomatic mission to the Ziyuan Empire tomorrow. Would you be willing to come with me?"
Yu Xiyan was stunned for a moment.
This was the first time since Shen Zhao's rebirth that he had taken the initiative to invite him to do something.
For a moment, I didn't know how to respond.
"If you don't want to, then forget it."
Seeing that she didn't answer for a long time, Shen Zhao left a sentence and turned to leave.
Yu Xiyan quickly said, "No, I'm willing. I'll follow you wherever you go, whenever we leave."
Shen Zhao said expressionlessly, "Then you should get some rest. I'll be waiting for you outside the camp gate at dawn tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll definitely be there."
Yu Xiyan responded and wanted to call out to Shen Zhao to try her food, but before she could speak, he had already walked away.
Even so, she felt a touch of sweetness in her heart.
The fortune teller walked to Yu Xiyan's side and whispered, "Your Majesty, rest early. There is still a long way to go tomorrow."
"Yes, sir, thank you so much this time."
"Your Majesty is too kind. Everything we do is for the sake of the common people."
The fortune teller finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself that at least for now, everything was progressing smoothly.
In the void and chaos, a pair of blood-red eyes slowly opened.
"A naive approach, but it doesn't matter. This system doesn't care about the process, as long as there's a satisfactory result, that's enough."
Unfortunately, destroying your system would backfire on the Great Dao, but what if I use Yu Xiyan's hand to devour your power?
Yu Xiyan, this system has secured this opportunity for you. Once you learn how to love someone...
Remember to clean up this rule-breaking Heavenly Dao for this system, hahaha…
Then, the system glanced at the Western Regions, where evil resentment was soaring.
"Perhaps the plan will have to change again, and this world is about to become hell. Host, what should you do in this life?"
