“Humph, let me see who exactly has managed to make the destiny of this Xiahou Zun so obscure that even I cannot see it clearly under the Wheel of Fate. The Wheel of Fate opens the pathway to the heavens, probing into the future, revealing the endless river of destiny.”
Boom! The Wheel of Fate spun wildly, and the river of destiny before him grew ever more vast. The old man followed the aura of Xiahou Zun’s fate, delving deeper, attempting to deduce the powerful figure that altered his fate.
“Indeed, someone has changed his fate. I am about to see it.”
The old man widened his eyes, looking frantically into the depths of the river of destiny through the Wheel of Fate. Suddenly… Boom! A vast force of destiny from within the river violently rebounded, striking hard against the Wheel of Fate. A cracking sound was heard as the treasured Wheel of Fate of the Zhuge family trembled violently, its restraints breaking, aura plummeting, heavily wounded, as if it might shatter at any moment.
“Ah!”
The head of the Zhuge family was also hit by the backlash, letting out a scream as he spurted out a mouthful of blood. Two lines of crimson blood actually flowed from his eyes, which could see through endless destinies.
Bang! The evolved river of destiny was instantly shattered.
“Head of the family.”
A middle-aged man exclaimed in shock, hurriedly stepping forward to support the old man, feeling the chaotic aura on him; the old man seemed to have experienced a fierce battle, his aura weak and severely injured.
“Head of the family, how are you?”
The middle-aged man was horrified. The head of the family was merely trying to calculate Xiahou Zun’s fate; how could it end up like this?
“I’m fine; it’s the backlash of fate.”
The old man sat up, coughing up two mouthfuls of blood, revealing an expression of disbelief, his aura weakened: “Who is it? Who exactly is that person?
Why did I suffer such a severe backlash while trying to calculate this person's fate? It’s impossible. Even if it’s a Venerable strength, with the Wheel of Fate as a treasure, I could still retreat unscathed.”
The old man spoke in anger.
“Could it be an expert surpassing the Venerable?”
The middle-aged man was astonished.
“Not likely. If it were an expert surpassing the Venerable, they would have already exceeded the rules of the heavenly realm, and could easily use fate techniques to backfire on me, killing me. But I can sense that this person’s cultivation level is not high, yet their fate is extraordinarily special, as if it can influence the future of the heavenly realm. Who on earth could it be?”
The old man panted heavily, “No wonder Xiahou Zun managed to escape from my hands; this person actually has such great fortune.”
“Head of the family, should we just let it go then?
If such a figure becomes angered by my Zhuge family, wouldn’t that be…” The middle-aged man was filled with dread.
“Let it go?”
The old man snorted, his tone grim, with a madness in his gaze. He roared, “What do you understand, idiot? This is an opportunity for my Zhuge family!”
“Disciple spoke wrongly; please do not blame me, head of the family!”
The middle-aged man lowered his head immediately, his expression serious.
“Humph, my Zhuge family has always toyed with fate. You don’t understand; fate is like water, shapeless and formless, and so is destiny. My Zhuge family has already entangled with the other party; it’s too late to retreat now. Although I don’t know the origin of this person or why their fate is so strange, I can feel that this person is not yet strong enough. For a figure that concerns the fate of the heavenly realm, as long as my Zhuge family devours their destiny, we can soar into the sky, and surely become the top power in the heavenly realm in the future.”
“Hiss!”
The middle-aged man gasped.
“Moreover, Xiahou Zun has obtained a token in that forbidden land. This token is crucial to that forbidden land; I can afford to lose other things, even Xiahou Zun’s array inheritance doesn’t matter to me, but that token, my Zhuge family must retrieve.”
