C284 A Picture of Misery

After meeting with the old Daoist Red Lotus, Lingyun felt like he had met an old acquaintance. Under the latter's invitation, he sat down and began to chat.1

Initially, he had thought that the other party was a senior who was much older than him, and should still have some indistinct airs, but as time passed by, he discovered that this old Daoist Hong Lian did not have the airs of a senior like the other older generations. There was only a kind of amiability.

It made people feel as if they were facing family members, and it was because of this that Lingyun did not mind delaying the process of concocting the pill at all.

"In that case, Senior will also be able to divine the future!" When Ling Yunfan found out that the old Daoist Red Lotus before him possessed a special ability that ordinary people were unable to grasp, he cried out in alarm as well.

"Of course." Hearing this, the old Daoist Hong Lian nodded her head with a faint smile on her face. When she saw that Ling Yunfan seemed to have something that he wanted to request of her, she immediately opened her mouth and said: "You want me to help you with your divination?"

"Well, I did." He did not expect the other party to be able to see through his thoughts so quickly. He nodded his head and said, "If possible, I hope that senior can help me deduce the most dangerous thing I will experience in the Blood Slaughter Grounds."

"Alright."

Hearing this, the old Daoist Red Lotus nodded his head and took out four fist-sized crystals out of nowhere. They were round and transparent, as if they did not contain a single trace of filth.

As these four small crystal balls that seemed ordinary yet contained a mysterious power, after absorbing the spiritual power from the old Daoist Red Lotus, they released milky white streaks of lightning that connected together.

About ten minutes later, the four crystal balls released a dazzling pure white light, which shot into Lingyun Fan's forehead.

After the sudden white light pierced his brows, a strong feeling of dizziness came over Lingyun. When he barely opened his eyes, what he saw was not the old Daoist Red Lotus and the strange and quiet street, but instead, a vast expanse of black fog. Here, a man dressed in exactly the same clothes as him hugged the white-robed woman who had lost her life, her eyes tightly shut.

When he stepped forward to take a closer look, he was shocked to discover that the two of them were actually him and Mu Han-Lan!

Looking at this scene, Ling Yun Fan seemed to have been petrified, and could not react for a long time. His eyes were filled with disbelief, and the surroundings were as tranquil as the surface of a lake.

"This is impossible!"

After an unknown amount of time had passed, the dazed Ling Yunfan who was standing to the side suddenly regained his senses, and immediately roared towards the sky.

"Buzz!"

At the same time, the voice had just sounded out when the illusory space disappeared. Due to the intense dizziness that was eroding his mind, he had no choice but to close his eyes again.

"Lan'er …" Not long later, Ling Yun Fan, who had his eyes closed, opened his eyes and shouted anxiously. When he realized that his surroundings had returned to how it was before, he held onto his chest, and mumbled with great sadness, "Huhu …" "So it's just an illusion. That's too terrifying."

At this moment, Lingyun Fan was in an exceptionally sorry state. Putting aside the fact that his long hair, which had originally been tied up, had been messed up due to the spirit energy explosion, his forehead was covered in sweat as if he had seen something he was most afraid of.

Looking at him in such a state, the old Daoist Red Lotus could not bear to see this. However, she still said, "In truth, all that you have seen is something that is destined to happen in the future. This is the fate that you and that little girl left behind thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago."

After hearing these words, Ling Yunfan, who had just gotten himself together, felt a tug at his heart. Then, as if he had thought of something, he quickly asked: "Senior, do you know something?"

Seeing him ask this, the old Daoist Red Lotus thought for a moment before slowly replying, "You and that little girl Mu Han-Lan did not meet by chance, and fell in love with each other, but something that was already destined to happen. The reason for this is because the two of you already had this inextricable bond in your previous life and even earlier, so no matter how long it takes, you will still meet and walk together."

"Including this life, it should be the eighth life." After saying that, the old Daoist Red Lotus seemed to have thought of something and added, "According to legends, no matter how strong one's fate is, it would definitely not exceed the eighth life. In other words, if you all insist on continuing to love each other, then what you have seen should be the end result."

After that, he remembered everything that he had seen in that strange space, and all sorts of feelings welled up in his heart. Honestly speaking, he would rather not believe the words of the other party, but no matter what, he was still an expert with an unfathomable cultivation, and there was no reason for him to have some sort of boring method to play around with him.

So no matter how unwilling he was to believe it, he had no choice but to believe it because the scene was too realistic, which caused his calm heart to become extremely chaotic. On one hand, he wasn't willing to be separated from Mu Han-Lan, who had finally walked together with him, and on the other hand, he didn't want to see his beloved one pass away because of his relationship with her again.

At the same time, various memories flashed through his mind due to Mu Hanlan's time with him. Finally, he resolutely looked at the expectant Hong Lian and said, "Thank you senior for telling me this, but I will never leave, no matter what. I promised her that I will never leave her, and even though my abilities aren't great, I promise that as long as it's something that I promised her, I will definitely do it."

Just as he finished speaking, Old Daoist Red Lotus's eyes were filled with surprise. When he was about to say something, Ling Yunfan spoke up first, "Although I will not leave Lan'er, that does not mean that I will allow what I have seen to happen, because I will use my own power to change the future. Although junior's cultivation is currently very weak, as long as I have enough time, I believe that I will have the ability to do so."

Speaking to here, Ling Yun revealed the special temperament that only true kings would have. This was something that only kings in the world would have. It was unique in the world.

"Very good. As expected of the little fellow that this old man appreciates."

Hearing this, Old Daoist Red Lotus's old face revealed a satisfied smile. After he said those words, his entire body turned into a shadow and gradually disappeared. At the same time, Lingyun's body seemed to have been sucked away by an unknown suction force.
