"It hadn’t felt like a big deal until Master Weng ntioned it. Once he said it, we did realize we were too insistent and instead fell into an obsession. Today the Star chanism Plate has finally found its destined person, which is actually a huge blessing for us." Weng Yixiao’s words were like enlightennt, prompting Shen Moce and Pu Tiandi to gasp and remark simultaneously.
As Divine Calculators, the group naturally had comndable mindsets. Once they figured it out, they no longer held any attachnt.
Only then did Han Yan tuck the Star Plate into her embrace. To be honest, earlier when Shen Moce and Pu Tiandi were staring so eagerly, she did feel a bit embarrassed to take it.
At the very mont the Star Plate was secured in her embrace, Han Yan’s ntal state slightly stirred, as if sothing had surged into her mind. But upon further inspection, it seed nothing was amiss.
In such a mont, Han Yan didn’t have ti to thoroughly check, so she perford a simple inner view and, seeing no abnormalities, paid it no further mind.
"Young Master Mu, how about we head to Nanyan Comrce now and first greet Chairman Che." Weng Yixiao responded to Han Yan, returning the favor in kind.
"Let’s wait a mont, Young Master Mu. Just now, when you activated that Star chanism Plate, did you divine anything?" Ji Gaoxian curiously asked.
He had actually wanted to ask this question earlier, but held back out of consideration for Han Yan’s Star Illusion Thousand Machine Technique.
"Divine anything?" Han Yan recalled the distorted ti and space that had appeared in her mind earlier. Those obscure, twisted images seed to carry the weight of a century, yet were simultaneously illusory and real, true and false, making it impossible to discern anything. Thus, she did not know whether it counted as having divined sothing.
Suddenly, a relatively clearer image lingered in her mind, feeling incredibly real.
Seeing the expectant looks from Ji Gaoxian and Shen Moce among others, Han Yan was just about to ntion what happened earlier when she suddenly changed her mind.
The Star Divination Technique is so nebulous that even the divine ancestor of the Star Illusion Thousand Machine admits the Heavenly Secret is hard to predict. How could any other Star Divination Masters see clearly what is yet to co? Therefore, throughout history, no Star Divination Master wasn’t shrouded in mystique and feigning profundity. To speak candidly would easily reveal her own secrets, wouldn’t it?
Han Yan did not intend to pose as a god-man, but the reason Shen Moce and the others joined Nanyan Comrce so unreservedly was not irrelevant to her "Star Divination Skill." If they were to know her secrets, although they wouldn’t necessarily go back on their word, it would definitely shake their confidence. Then, their divided allegiance would not bode well for Nanyan Comrce.
"Master Ji, could you please prepare another pot of tea and three teacups?" Han Yan recalled the earlier image, smiled calmly, and said to Ji Gaoxian.
Ji Gaoxian, Shen Moce, and the others all looked puzzled, but seeing Han Yan’s mysterious smile and unfathomable gaze, they nonetheless quickly prepared the tea.
Clearly, this genuine Star Divination Master had indeed divined sothing, leaving the group a little expectant.
It’s undeniable, Lady Mu’s trickery with god-man techniques grows ever more proficient.
"Master Ji, Master Shen, Master Pu, Master Weng, are you all here? An old acquaintance has co to visit." At this mont, a vigorous laugh sounded from outside. Listening to the voice, neither humble nor overbearing, yet powerful, you could tell the visitor wasn’t ordinary.
Shen Moce and the others exchanged glances, showing expressions of shock. Han Yan had just ntioned preparing tea, and they had guessed a prestigious guest was arriving, but they hadn’t expected it to be so soon.
They usually divined fortunes and disasters for others, even when they did divine sothing, it was spoken ambiguously, like saying that a bloody disaster would co soon or double happiness was bound to arrive in the future, nonsense really.
When is soon, and when is the future? Anyway, it’s up to them to decide. What is a bloody disaster? A broken arm or leg could be a bloody disaster, and accidentally biting your tongue could be one too. Anyway, it was always up to them to decide.
In short, they would never give definitive answers, always leaving themselves a way out.
But Han Yan just asked Ji Gaoxian to prepare tea, and imdiately they had a prestigious guest at the door. Such accurate divination is simply too miraculous.
Seeing the stunned expressions of Shen Moce and the others, Han Yan realized that even if she was showing off, compared to other Star Divination Masters, she was still too explicit.
Yet it was because the earlier relatively clearer image felt so vivid to her that she spoke so explicitly.
In that image, the scenery was distorted, but she could barely make out Ji Gaoxian’s Divination Shop door with three silhouettes entering one after another. Although she couldn’t discern gender, height, or body shape beside the number, Han Yan didn’t sense any malice, only tranquility, which led her to guess that visitors were arriving.
"And who might you be?" asked Ji Gaoxian’s disciple outside, puzzled.
Ji Gaoxian and Shen Moce were discussing matters inside; without the master’s instructions, he dared not easily let outsiders in. Han Yan was allowed straight in earlier because he had visited Nanyan Comrce with the master and knew the master’s great admiration for Han Yan, treating her with the highest respect, making him, in calculation, Han Yan’s disciple’s disciple, thus stopping her wasn’t an option.
"Please let the honored guests in." Not waiting for him to answer, Ji Gaoxian instructed loudly.
Soon, three figures were led inside by the disciple. Upon seeing the leader, Ji Gaoxian and the others were startled simultaneously, and then glanced at Han Yan, with their eyes turning even more astonished.
Han Yan had just asked to prepare three teacups, and no more, no less, just three people indeed walked in.
With their Star Divination Skills, had they been lucky, they might have divined a prestigious guest’s arrival, but exactly when and how many wasn’t within their capacity. At most, they could only utter sothing like a prestigious guest would soon arrive, never daring to be so precise.
Such precise Star Divination Skill was sothing they had never heard of, nor seen, becoming more and more impressed by Han Yan.
Especially Shen Moce, realizing that he had actually been so reckless as to compete in Star Divination Skills with Han Yan, felt it was nothing short of courting humiliation.
"Master Shen, Master Pu, Master Weng, Master Ji, it’s been so ti. Do you not recognize , Mo Gaoyi?" Seeing the masters all dumbstruck, the leading old man said loudly.
"So it’s Family Head Mo. I didn’t expect Family Head Mo’s presence, pardon my poor hospitality." The group snapped back to reality, quickly rising to bow.
Mo Gaoyi, the head of one of the Eight Great Families of the Capital, the Mo Family, and Mo Yanhong’s father! Han Yan was a bit surprised too.
Upon closer inspection, there indeed was so resemblance to Mo Yanhong, but his unruffled deanor, commanding respect from within, was far superior to Mo Yanhong’s. Naturally, this made sense. If he were the sa as his brainless son, how could he beco the head of one of the Eight Great Families?
"Family Head Mo, to what do we owe the honor of your visit today?" After having everyone seated, Ji Gaoxian asked politely.
