"Is there something wrong?"
Xiao Chen stared at the old fortune teller and asked seriously.
He had always felt that the old fortune teller was hiding something from him. Whenever he asked him several times, the fortune teller would change the subject or just say - the secret cannot be revealed.
After a few times, Xiao Chen stopped asking questions and thought it might not be a big deal.
But today, after listening to what Amaterasu said, he realized... anything that could bring pressure to the old fortune teller was definitely not a trivial matter!
If things go wrong, it could be a catastrophe!
Moreover, these words came from the mouth of Amaterasu. Although he was not familiar with Amaterasu and this was the first time they met, just as he had thought before, this woman was not simple!
In this life, I must have experienced countless storms and waves, so I can say that "cultivation is plundering"!
Furthermore, the island nation suffered heavy losses in martial arts this time, and even the emperor could not sit still.
But Amaterasu didn't take it seriously. Of course, maybe it had something to do with the old fortune teller. If he was not the old fortune teller's grandson, he would definitely have died a miserable death.
A woman like this said something like "the old fortune teller is under a lot of pressure", which couldn't help but make Xiao Chen think more!
"Well, a little bit, but... there's still time."
The old fortune teller looked at Xiao Chen. This time he did not use "the secret of heaven cannot be revealed" to block Xiao Chen's mouth and nodded.
"Don't worry, what I just said is true, I can handle it... Besides, the sky hasn't fallen!"
Xiao Chen stared at the old fortune teller without saying anything, just looking at him.
"Haha, why are you looking at me? Okay, I'll tell you after you step into the Xiantian realm, okay? Before that, don't ask too much. Knowing it won't do you any good."
The old fortune teller raised his hand and patted Xiao Chen on the shoulder.
"Xiantian... Amaterasu also said that she would wait for me to become Xiantian, and let me come to the island country Amaterasu Mountain to give me an opportunity."
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed.
"Now, you also said that I am the innate... Only I am qualified to know this after I enter the innate realm?"
"It's not about qualifications, but... you know it's useless."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"Old fortune teller, do I have innate combat power, or innate realm?"
Xiao Chen didn't ask any more questions and asked seriously.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the old fortune teller was stunned, then smiled and said, "Yeah, I forgot that this is a monster!"
He is only at the peak of the early stage of Hua Jin now. No, he just broke through and is already at the middle stage of Hua Jin!
In terms of realm, he is still far from being innate, but in terms of combat power, maybe... it won’t take too long.
But can innateness change everything?
It’s not good either.
Thinking of this, the old fortune teller sighed in his heart, but the smile on his face became even stronger: "Of course it is the innate realm."
"Innate realm?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"Old fortune teller, I am only in the middle stage of Hua Jin now... How long will it take for me to reach the Xiantian realm?"
"No hurry, it will be quick."
The old fortune teller chuckled.
"Think about how long you have been practicing. You are already in the middle stage of Hua Jin, and you can expect to reach Xiantian... Before you reach Xiantian, the sky will not fall."
Xiao Chen looked deeply at the old fortune teller and nodded: "Okay, I'll do as you say. When I enter the Xiantian realm, you tell me everything!"
"Can."
The old fortune teller also nodded.
"However, follow your path, don't rush, settle down when you need to! You said that you want to build a tall building, and use the transformation energy as the foundation. Don't ignore the most basic things because you are eager to enter the Xiantian realm! Otherwise, even if you enter the Xiantian realm, you will only be... cannon fodder!"
"cannon fodder……"
Xiao Chen's heart moved. This was the third time he heard the old fortune teller say the word "cannon fodder". The previous two times he was talking about the emperor.
"Don't think too much, just take one step at a time! Now, with us old guys here, it's not your turn yet!"
The old fortune teller smiled, turned and walked out.
"I'm going to go out for a walk."
Xiao Chen looked at the old fortune teller's back and felt for the first time that... he seemed to be really old.
Many people have said that when they were young, old fortune tellers were like this.
Including Xiao Chen, when he was a child, the fortune teller was like this.
Twenty years have passed, and the old fortune teller seems to have not changed much.
But at this moment…even though the old fortune teller remained unchanged, Xiao Chen had the feeling that he was old.
The old fortune teller’s back looks a little lonely.
Maybe Amaterasu was right, he was under too much pressure and lacked someone who could share the pressure with him.
There is no such thing as a peaceful life in this world. It's just that someone is carrying the burden for you!
Xiao Chen slowly clenched his fists. Is this the innate realm?
In a short period of time, he can enter the middle stage of Hua Jin, and Xian Jin... won't be far away!
People like Ghost Buddha Zhao Rulai and others have been stuck at the half-step innate state for a long time and cannot find the way to the innate state.
But Xiao Chen felt that he would not have such a problem.
"Old fortune teller, wait for me... Xiantian!"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen said loudly.
The old fortune teller paused and smiled with relief.
He didn't look back, waved his hand, slowly left, and disappeared from Xiao Chen's sight.
Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and returned to the room.
In today's battle with the Emperor, the backlash from the continuous shattering of his domain caused him severe internal injuries.
In addition, he also needs to consolidate his realm after breaking through in the battle. If he falls, he will be in trouble.
This is also the reason why few people choose to break through during a battle!
"Owner."
When Hong saw Xiao Chen coming back, she stood up and walked forward.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Practicing?"
"yes."
Hong smiled.
"My master is so strong, I have to become stronger too! Otherwise, how can I fight alongside you! I don't want to be a useless person who doesn't even have the qualifications to fight alongside you."
Hearing Hong Yi's words, Xiao Chen looked at her and smiled bitterly.
"What's wrong?"
Hong asked when she saw Xiao Chen's expression.
"nothing."
Xiao Chen shook his head. Hong Yi was practicing hard, wanting to fight alongside him... and what about him? He should also work hard!
No matter what the old fortune teller is facing, he is unable to fight alongside him now, and even... he does not have the qualifications to do so!
"From today on, let's work together to become stronger!"
"Um."
Red nodded slightly.
"But you have to treat your injuries first. I'll run you some water so you can clean yourself up."
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded.
After Hong Yi went to the bathroom, Xiao Chen lit a cigarette and took a few deep puffs.
The old fortune teller said that there is still time as some old guys are still around.
In this case, he will work hard to become stronger, so that when the old fortune teller needs him, he can... live up to the old fortune teller's expectations!
After finishing a cigarette, Xiao Chen went to the bathroom, took a quick shower, took out the Nine Flames Mysterious Needle, and began to heal his wounds.
After healing, Xiao Chen thought about it and inserted the Nine Flame Mysterious Needle into several acupoints again.
This was the method he came up with when he had just started practicing.
Later, when he was able to practice, he never practiced in this way again because it was painful.
But now... he needs a little pain to stimulate himself!
The Chaos Art was running wildly, his lower Dantian was trembling slightly, and he began to consolidate his realm.
Soon, sweat broke out on his forehead.
Seeing this, Hong frowned slightly. Was there an accident? Or was he possessed?
However, she didn't dare to disturb him and could only stand by.
A cycle of days passes, and several hours pass.
It was dark before Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyes and pulled out the Nine Flame Mysterious Needle from his body.
"Master, are you okay?"
Hong asked hurriedly when she saw Xiao Chen wake up.
"You look like you're in a lot of pain... If you don't wake up, I'll go call for help."
"Hehe, I'm fine. I forgot to tell you and made you worry."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Don't worry about me from now on, just practice your skills."
"Um."
Red nodded slightly.
"What time is it? Is it time for dinner? Let's go and see what they are doing."
Xiao Chen stood up and left the room with Hong Yi.
In the living room, everyone except the old fortune teller was there.
"Where's the old fortune teller? Hasn't he come back yet?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"No."
Qin Jianwen shook his head.
"How is your injury?"
"It's all right now. My realm has been consolidated."
Xiao Chen looked at the time.
"I'll ask the old fortune teller what he's doing, and then we'll have dinner together... It's also a way to celebrate our victory."
"good."
Qin Jianwen nodded.
Before Xiao Chen could make the call, the old fortune teller came back.
"Haha, you really are an old god. Did you know I was going to call you?"
Xiao Chen looked at the old fortune teller and said with a smile.
"certainly."
The old fortune teller nodded, and neither of them mentioned what had happened before, nor did they show any sign of abnormality.
Some things don't need to be expressed, just keep them in your heart.
For example, Xiao Chen secretly decided that he must step into the innate realm in the shortest possible time and become a true innate master!
Although he likes freedom, but... as a human being, one should not be too selfish!
If you only pursue freedom and ignore the pressure from the old fortune teller, then how can you be worthy of the old fortune teller's kindness in raising you!
After a few small talk, the group left their residence, found a nice-looking hotel, and had dinner.
After finishing his meal, Xiao Chen received a call from Prince Asahito.
Xiao Chen looked at Prince Xuren's number, hesitating whether to answer it... Mainly, he didn't know how to tell Prince Xuren.
As I said, now that we have reached an agreement, it would not be a good idea to kill someone again.
"Hello?"
Xiao Chen thought about it and answered the call.
"Xiao Chen, why didn't you discuss this with me before you started?"
Prince Asahito's voice was a little excited and even trembling.
"ah?"
Listening to Prince Asahito's words, Xiao Chen was a little confused. Take action?
"What do you mean by moving your hands?"
"My eldest brother is dead!"
"What? Your eldest brother died?"
Xiao Chen widened his eyes. No way?
"Yes, didn't you do that?"
Prince Asahito was also stunned for a moment. Was Xiao Chen pretending to be stupid, afraid of leaving any handle behind?
"No, how did your elder brother die?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
"The car accident...it really wasn't you?"
Prince Asahito was also a little confused.
"Really? If I did it, I would definitely admit it! Car accident? Really? Did he die?"
Xiao Chen had a strange expression on his face. The island country’s prince... died in a car accident?
How unreal!
