Hearing Chuchenzi's words, Huo Qiqi glanced at the person in front of her. A hint of confusion flashed across her eyes, but there wasn't a trace of panic. She was very curious about why Chuchenzi said that. "Senior Chuchenzi, what is a person of destiny? Why do you say I am a person of destiny?"
Chu Chenzi was very satisfied with Huo Qiqi's calm performance. He was more convinced that Huo Qiqi was the destined person. He smiled and said, "Miss Huo, this is not the place to talk. Please follow me." Huo Qiqi followed him to the stone table in the yard. At Chu Chenzi's signal, Huo Qiqi sat on the stone bench.
As for Chu Chenzi guessing her surname, Huo Qiqi was not too surprised. Chu Chenzi was able to deduce that her soul had traveled to this world, which showed that he was very good at divination. His ability in this area should be higher than that of his cheap senior brother Lao Huangtou.
The moment she sat down on the stone bench, Huo Qiqi wasn't panicking anymore. She thought to herself, "I have the system space at my fingertips, and I can use the system's Grand Teleportation Trial version. I can leave at any time if there's danger. I'm afraid there aren't many people in this world who would leave me alone."
Seeing Huo Qiqi's calmness, Chu Chenzi, who was always good at planning and strategizing, was not used to it. He was very puzzled by Huo Qiqi's behavior. Just now, she was still asking him about the matter of the destined man, but now she stopped asking. He felt that the initiative of this conversation had been taken over by the master.
Chu Chenzi, just muttering to himself, knew that some things had to be made clear. He stroked his beard, narrowed his eyes, glanced at Huo Qiqi, and said with great conviction, "Comrade Huo, I'm sure that this isn't your true appearance right now, is it?"
Huo Qiqi didn't refute Chuchenzi's words, but nodded slightly. She clenched the dagger in her sleeve, her face turned cold, and she said in a bad tone, "Senior Chuchenzi, why did you send Xiaoli to me? Are you an enemy or a friend?"
Chu Chenzi glanced at Huo Qiqi and found that he couldn't see through the girl in front of him. He sighed, took out a painting from his sleeve, smiled at Huo Qiqi and said, "Miss Huo, please open it. I will explain everything to you slowly."
Huo Qiqi frowned, not knowing what Chu Chenzi was up to, but she still took the scroll and opened it carefully under Chu Chenzi's gaze. After opening the painting, Huo Qiqi was stunned because she found that the person in the painting was 90% like herself.
Only then did she understand why Chu Chenzi said that her current appearance was not her real face. It turned out that it was because of such a painting. But she was puzzled as to why there was a painting of herself here.
After Huo Qiqi pondered for a moment, she decided to get straight to the point and stop testing Chuchenzi. She asked Chuchenzi, "Senior Chuchenzi, what exactly is going on? Why do you call me the Man of Destiny?"
Chu Chenzi smiled and said, "Comrade Huo, even something like soul transmigration has happened. What else could possibly confuse you? I believe you've discovered that this world you're in is different from your previous life. It's a parallel world."
Hearing Chu Chenzi say this, Huo Qiqi's heart was no longer calm, but like a raging storm. She clenched her fists, her nerves tense, and secretly decided in her heart that if Chu Chenzi was not okay, she would immediately flash into the system space and leave here.
Seeing Huo Qiqi's tense expression, Chu Chenzi smiled and said, "Miss Huo, you don't have to be so nervous. I'm not your enemy. Remember when I said you were a man of destiny? I sent Xiao Li to you to protect you, because our sect is the guardian of the man of destiny."
Huo Qiqi was not relieved at this moment. Instead, she asked in confusion, "Senior Chuchenzi, after all this talk, you still haven't told me what a destiny person is."
After hearing Huo Qiqi's words, Chu Chenzi seemed to be lost in thought. Huo Qiqi followed his gaze and saw a small bamboo forest in the corner of the yard. After a long moment, Chu Chenzi said sadly, "A person with a destiny is one who possesses great fortune. They come to this world with their own mission."
Chu Chenzi glanced at Huo Qiqi, who looked indifferent, and continued, "Ms. Huo, to be honest, I can't figure out what your mission is. You can be said to be an anomaly among people with destiny. You should have other great opportunities, but I just don't know about them."
After hearing this, Huo Qiqi said coldly, "Senior Chuchenzi, I don't care about being a destiny person or an anomaly. I am who I am. I hope Senior Chuchenzi will not bring trouble to my life, otherwise I don't know what I will do."
Hearing Huo Qiqi's blatant warning, Chu Chenzi didn't get angry. Instead, he praised her, "Ms. Huo, she's right. You are indeed a good person. If she had made the same choice as you, her life wouldn't have been so miserable. The painting in your hand is the one she left for me. She said you would find it here."
At this moment, Huo Qiqi's consciousness partially entered the system space and found the system that was currently watching the drama. She asked in confusion, "Xiao Ling, this Chuchenzi was talking about a destined person and also mentioned a "her". Could this "her" be your master?"
The system shifted its gaze from the TV series, glanced at Huo Qiqi, and then did some research before saying, somewhat embarrassedly, "Host, I'm not entirely sure about this. My master is a very thoughtful person, and I don't know if she has any other plans."
Huo Qiqi thought to herself, "Forget it. If I can't figure it out, then forget it. I know Chuchenzi won't harm me, and that's all I need. I don't care about him being a destiny man or an anomaly. I came to this parallel world to live freely and unrestrainedly, and to avenge my grandfather and parents."
"Senior Chuchenzi, are you the guardian of the previous generation of people with destiny? Can you tell me about the previous generation of people with destiny?" Since the system could not answer, Huo Qiqi wanted to get more useful information from Chuchenzi.
Chu Chenzi had not expected Huo Qiqi to ask him this. For a moment, he did not know how to answer. Huo Qiqi looked at Chu Chenzi and did not rush him. After a cup of tea, Chu Chenzi said a little embarrassedly, "Huo Qiqi, I am a guardian of the previous generation. This is all I can say."
"Senior Chuchenzi, I want to ask, was it accidental or inevitable that Xiaoli found me?" Huo Qiqi stared at Chuchenzi and asked seriously and solemnly.
Chu Chenzi probably guessed Huo Qiqi would ask this, so he stood up and said to her with a smile, "I can answer you on this point. I told her the city where the Destiny Man was. The reason she didn't encounter any danger along the way was because I was protecting her. Her finding you was both accidental and inevitable."
Huo Qiqi notified the Eye of Truth and wanted to check on Chu Chenzi, but she was surprised to find that she could not see through his inner thoughts, so she wanted to ask more questions and deduce Chu Chenzi's true purpose.
"Qiqi, are you guys done talking?"
