The moment he saw this middle-aged man, Feng Shao couldn't help but asked in a lost voice: "Master of Xihe Palace?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Congratulations, you have successfully passed the first level I set for you and come here."

Feng Shao's mouth twitched: "A level set for me? What about others?"

Xihe Palace Master smiled and said, "They took another route. Although it is equally dangerous, it is not as complicated as the route you took."

"So all your problems are set for your own people?"

Xihe Palace Master laughed: "With your ability, you have made it all the way here smoothly, haven't you? And you don't have to encounter those deadly traps. In fact, in the final analysis, you have made a profit, haven't you? It's nothing more than using your brain more!"

Feng Shao understood immediately: "In other words, if I can't figure out how to break the formation, will I be trapped in it forever?"

The Xihe Palace Master shook his head and said, "That's not the case. You will be released in three days. But if you want to come in again next time, you will have to wait a hundred years."

Feng Shao sighed: "Okay, I roughly understand your intention. So you came to see me, it shouldn't be to chat with me, right?"

Xihe Palace Master nodded and said seriously, "I do have something to tell you."

Feng Shao listened attentively.

Xihe Palace Master continued, "Since you can recognize me, you must have been to the Sansheng Tower and met another me, right? And since you came here, I think you must have understood the second page of the Heavenly Book."

Feng Shao shook his head and said, "I can't say I have understood it thoroughly, I just have some guesses in my mind."

The Xihe Palace Master said, "Having a guess proves that you have understood it. Tell me your guess!"

Feng Shao was stunned: "Say it out? Here? If I'm not mistaken, the information you want to convey to me with the Heavenly Book should not be spoken out loud, right?"

"That's true. But here, it's different."

"Why is it different?"

The Xihe Palace Master explained, "This is the Qiankun Palace, and since its creation, the Qiankun Palace has been arranged to conceal the secrets of heaven. Whether it is the Liuhe Twenty-Eight Constellations Array or the Thirty-Three Heavenly Arrays, they all exist to conceal the secrets of heaven. The central hub is controlled by the Six Paths Wheel. Through the Six Paths Wheel, the secrets of heaven can be further concealed, achieving the effect of concealing the truth.

"That is to say, the small world you are in right now does not exist in the eyes of Heaven. No matter what you do here, Heaven will not be able to detect it."

Hearing this, Feng Shao seemed to be thinking: "According to what you said, there is one thing I finally understand."

"What's up?"

Feng Shao said, "Among the ten forbidden areas, Qiankun Palace and Sansheng Tower are the most special. The dangers of other forbidden areas are very clear. Only Qiankun Palace and Sansheng Tower, the world's rumors say that if you enter them without permission, you will be trapped to death. But few people know what the situation is inside. From what you said, I almost understand, it turns out that these two places exist specifically to conceal the secrets of heaven!"

Xihe Palace Master smiled and said, "You are only half right. Qiankun Palace was co-founded by Wangshu, Xuanji and me, and it exists specifically for those who want to defy the will of Heaven. The Sansheng Tower is a miracle left by the previous Heavenly Dao. The reason why the previous Heavenly Dao left behind the miracle of the Sansheng Tower was to wait for people like you and me."

Feng Shao frowned and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

The Xihe Palace Master said solemnly: "Have you ever thought that the current Heavenly Dao is not actually the real Heavenly Dao?"

Feng Shao fell silent after hearing this.

Seeing Feng Shao's reaction, Xihe Palace Master understood that Feng Shao had indeed guessed this possibility in his heart. However, this guess was too shocking and might involve the origin of the Heavenly Dao, so Feng Shao didn't even dare to say it.

After a long while, Feng Shao said in a deep voice: "So you created Qiankun Palace just to fight against the Heavenly Dao?"

"Yes, and no." said the Lord of Xihe Palace.

"What do you mean?"

The Xihe Palace Master explained: "The Way of Heaven is constant. It does not exist for the sake of Yao and does not perish for the sake of Jie. Since ancient times, the Way of Heaven has not existed for a certain person or a certain group of people. Moreover, the Way of Heaven is to take away the surplus and make up for the deficiency. In this world, there should not be anyone favored by the Way of Heaven."

Feng Shao added: "So the appearance of the Son of Luck means that the current Heavenly Dao is not the real Heavenly Dao at all?"

The Xihe Palace Master nodded: "That's right."

In ancient times, there were also people with great luck. However, such people often accumulated merits to gain the favor of luck. Merits are a kind of energy that even the heavens cannot control. They have existed since the time when the heaven and earth were still in chaos.

In other words, whether you have good fortune is determined by how many good deeds you have done and how many causes and effects you have resolved. There is no such thing as having great fortune for no reason.

However, the appearance of the sons of luck one after another clearly violated the will of heaven. Many morally corrupt people, such as Ye Chen, were favored by heaven. Is this reasonable? Is this fair?

Although there are too many injustices in this world, the way of heaven is the most fair. In Feng Shao's cognition, the true way of heaven will not only not allow the existence of the Son of Fortune, which is beyond common sense, but will suppress them. Those who can survive the suppression are the true Son of Destiny.

Just as the old saying goes: When God is about to confer a great responsibility on a man, he must first make his heart and mind suffer, his muscles and bones tired, his body hungry and empty, and his plans frustrated. This is to make his heart move and his nature endure, and increase his ability to do what he could not do before.

Now it seems that my guess might be true.

The way of heaven today is not the true way of heaven.

The Xihe Palace Master said, "I entered the Sansheng Tower more or less at the behest of the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao is now occupying the magpie's nest. Its existence is not to maintain the normal operation of this world, but to interfere with it. So I created the Qiankun Palace, and I wanted to use this as a basis to overthrow the current Heavenly Dao."

Feng Shao couldn't help but gasp.

He had a premonition that the Xihe Palace Master had a big plan. But he never expected that the Xihe Palace Master's plan was much bigger than he had expected!

He actually wants to overthrow the way of heaven? !

Feng Shao couldn't help but ask: "What will happen after you overthrow the Heavenly Dao? Are you going to replace it?"

The Xihe Palace Master shook his head and said, "Of course not. If the current Heavenly Dao is overthrown, the original Heavenly Dao will naturally return. The true Heavenly Dao should not be assumed by people with selfish motives."

At this point, Xihe Palace Master sighed: "It's a pity that we failed. Our final plot was discovered by the current Heavenly Dao."

"So this is how Qiankun Palace was destroyed?"

The Lord of Xihe Palace raised his head, his face showing a look of reminiscence: "In fact, when I first created Qiankun Palace, Wangshu and Xuanji did not agree with my idea. And we also expected the result later. For that day, we also made our own preparations. Xuanji escaped by faking his death, and I deposited my consciousness in Qiankun Palace and Sansheng Tower respectively, sending my soul to another world. As for Wangshu..."

At this point, Xihe Palace Master paused, and then slowly said: "Before that day came, she erased the mark of her soul through the Six Paths Wheel and entered the reincarnation. So even the Heavenly Path cannot find her trace."

Feng Shao frowned and said, "You don't want me to find Wangshu back, do you?"

The Xihe Palace Master laughed: "Although she has erased the mark of her soul, some things are already destined. The Earth Origin Divine Chapter she holds carries a part of her consciousness. So when she reincarnates and comes into contact with the Earth Origin Divine Chapter again, she can gradually awaken her memories of her previous life. And I discovered through the aura on your body that you have found her."

Feng Shao was stunned: "You mean... Ran'er? She is the reincarnation of Wangshu?"

Xihe Palace Master nodded slowly: "That's right. Some fates cannot be severed. Just like me and Wangshu, and you and Lin Xiaoran."

Feng Shao's thoughts suddenly fell into chaos.

Lin Xiaoran is the reincarnation of Wangshu, although it is beyond Feng Shao's expectation, but it is not necessarily a bad thing. It's just that Feng Shao always has a feeling that his fate is controlled by others, which makes him feel flustered.

There are more than billions of people in the world. Among so many people, why did he end up with Wangshu's reincarnation? And from the beginning to the end, the feelings between the two were very strong and never wavered. It was as if they were bound together. From the beginning, it was destined that it was only you.

He looked up blankly and asked, "Is fate really determined?"

The Xihe Palace Master did not give a clear answer, but asked in return: "When you entered the Sansheng Tower, you should have already formed your own opinion on fate, right?"

Feng Shao couldn't help but be stunned.

Yes, the Sansheng Tower is where the three lives of reincarnation are reflected, and the Tieyuan Pillar in it is destined to be married. When entering the Sansheng Tower, Feng Shao once thought, whether he had tied another person to the Tieyuan Pillar?

Now it seems that there is an answer.

“Destiny can be changed, but it cannot be changed. When faced with a life choice, no matter how many times you make it, your choice will remain the same, and there will be no change unless you can predict the outcome in advance. But in essence, aren’t you also choosing your own destiny?

"Your acquaintance with Lin Xiaoran may be accidental or inevitable. Originally, you could have passed each other by and lived in different places from then on, and would never remember that each other had ever appeared in your lives until you died. However, when you met, you each chose each other and eventually became a couple who supported each other. This is both the choice of fate and your choice.

"So, do you think it really matters whether fate can be changed?"
