Chapter 450: Chapter 315 Starry Fork in the Road_4
Charlotte sat down.
The base of the tree was indeed warm.
—This warmth would last for quite a while.
After all, the outside had already been sealed off with Vast Cold Frost, and inside the tree hollow, the heat brought by the lightning was enough to counteract it, without causing the snow outside to melt.
This was Shen Ye controlling his power at its peak.
The little girl had eaten grilled fish not long ago, and now she was in a warm enclosed environment, so fatigue surged over her all at once.
“I’m going to sleep for a bit, Baxter. If anything happens, talk to Lancy or anyone else is fine.”
“Okay, you sleep.”
The little girl sat there, leaning against the warm trunk, and quickly fell asleep.
Seeing her sleep so soundly, Shen Ye simply passed through the tree hollow and wandered outside for a long while.
The snow was ing down even heavier now.
The howling wind, mixed with snowflakes that made it hard to keep one’s eyes open, swept across the entire forest.
Such severe extreme weather—
Even a flying vehicle wouldn’t be able to land easily.
Not to mention tracking anyone in this environment.
Shen Ye flew back to the tree hollow.
But he saw that the little girl was already awake.
“Not sleeping a bit longer?” Shen Ye asked in surprise.
“Hello, nice to meet you, I am Pei A’suo,” the little girl said in a neutral voice.
Her pupils had changed from emerald green to deep blue.
A new personality!
“Hello, I am Baxter,” Shen Ye said.
“Baxter, your destiny has been sealed by that Demon of Fear, which is really troublesome,” Pei A’suo said with a frown.
“Is there a way to undo it?” Shen Ye inquired.
“No.”
“Wait, how do you know that personality?”
“I am the Astrologer Poet Pei A’suo, possessing the power to perceive destiny, the only pletely lucid personality.”
“You weren’t affected by the battle between Charlotte and the Demon of Fear?” Shen Ye asked.
“In fact, when the battle started, the personalities were beginning to choose sides—I sided with Charlotte, as for the Demon of Fear—”
“Every trouble you’ve encountered afterward is either its incarnation or another personality under its mand.”
“It also sealed off your destiny.”
The little girl stretched out her hand, gently placing it on Shen Ye’s chest, and said:
“Although I can’t break its Art of Destiny, I have another way to help you.”
Hum—
A soft humming sounded in the air.
Shen Ye felt as though he had gained an additional sense, but couldn’t quite identify what it was.
“What did you do?” Shen Ye asked curiously.
“The Starry Fork in the Road—this is a divination-type sensory technique; you will slowly understand it,” the little girl said.
The little girl yawned, her eyes tiredly closing.
“This body is exhausted to the limit; I reckon the other personalities won’t be able to e out anymore.”
She whispered, gradually falling into deep sleep.
Only Shen Ye stood there, feeling superstitious, sensing that something about him had changed.
He looked at the little girl, slowly ing to a realization.
The battle between the personalities had flared up again.
—Charlotte was uneasy, daring to rest only with his presence.
If not, Lancy could just find some deer or roe to carry her and head to a relatively warm place to rest.
Shen Ye sighed, wanting to summon an ice mirror.
But being in a “ghost” state without a body, he was unable to smoothly take out the Broad Cold Holy Relic.
So what now?
—Just stand by and watch Charlotte sleep?
Better to ponder over “The Starry Fork in the Road.”
It was a technique, not a weapon; “ghosts” should be able to use it.
Shen Ye flew out of the tree hollow, standing in the storm to quietly sense.
Over time,
a marvelous intuition emerged in his heart.
At the same time, light gathered into small characters, providing an explanation for this intuition:
“The Starry Fork in the Road.”
“At life’s crossroads, different choices and methods of action will bring you different outes.”
“—And you can feel them.”
Is that simple?
Definitely not parable to that Demon of Fear’s Art of Destiny.
That technique directly blocked my access to higher-level Extraordinary Power.
What about this?
Shen Ye silently considered various courses of action.
Charlotte was asleep.
If he just let her sleep… until she had her fill…
A line of light lettering appeared:
“You will face an encirclement.”
That certainly won’t do.
—What if he woke Charlotte immediately and they ran deeper into the forest?
As his thoughts proceeded, another line of light lettering appeared:
“The little girl exhausted and overwhelmed, frost penetrating her body, falling gravely ill, life hanging by a thread.”
That won’t do either!
Wait a second.
…This Starry Fork in the Road might be somewhat useful.
It’s a divination technique for aiding decision-making!
They couldn’t just wait there, nor could they run away immediately.
So what to do?
Shen Ye fell deep into thought.
