Chapter 997 - Mystery Unraveled
Liu Wuxie surprised Han Shanzi with his calm composure.
Han Shanzi had assumed that the talk of the Astral Domain would spark awe or longing in the young man. But to his surprise, Liu Wuxie remained eerily calm.
"After the Astral Domain severed ties with the True Martial Continent, we tried every method to restore the connection," Han Shanzi said with a wry smile. "But nothing has worked in all these years. So, our Han Clan began to calculate... and we came to believe that once every thousand years, a chosen one, who is destined to lead us back to the Astral Domain, would emerge."
The Han Clan had gained fame for their divination after sacrificing many ancestors to calculate when the chosen one would appear.
No wonder Han Feizi had shown such complicated emotions when he had first met Liu Wuxie. No one understood the link between the chosen one and the Han Clan better than him.
"How are you certain that I'm the chosen one?" Liu Wuxie asked.
"Destiny!" Han Shanzi replied.
Though he hadn't been certain before, he had confirmed it after meeting Liu Wuxie in person.
Like Han Feizi, he had once assumed Liu Wuxie was just another talented cultivator and nothing more.
Even Liu Wuxie wasn't sure about his destiny. Everyone had their destiny; perhaps the Han Clan could glimpse fate through divination.
"People are also saying that Qiao Bian from the Dragon Emperor Academy is the chosen one," Liu Wuxie said with a frown.
