Chapter 699 - 697: The Family’s Legendary Charlatan 22
"The results calculated by Master Ge and Master Fu were Dan City, and both of them come from orthodox Mystic Master sects. In my opinion, Miss Shi should indeed be in Dan City."
But Dan City is too vast, and finding a person amidst the vast sea of people is not easy, let alone the reincarnation of someone who died many years ago. People like to describe impossible tasks as harder than climbing to the sky, yet nowadays, climbing to the sky isn’t hard anymore. Finding the reincarnation of Miss Shi, who knows how many times harder it is?
"Western practices aren’t very suitable for us," said the person next to Wen Song when they noticed he wasn’t speaking. "That Tarot Master named Luo Yun’s divination results were obviously inaccurate, so it’s better not to trust those Western methods."
Wen Song finally reacted a bit and said: "I know."
"Shi Yang said she would meet me again; she wouldn’t deceive me."
"I suddenly remembered, I seemed to forget to remind the masters of this matter."
Just then, Deborah looked at Ah Chen: "Feng Chen, do you have any results from your divination?"
Feng Chen hadn’t revealed any skills until now, yet from intuition, Deborah thought the other party should have some capability.
Luo Yun and Ge Yu both looked at Ah Chen, and even Fu Yingshu, who was sitting a bit further away, was paying attention to the activity here.
Not to mention those audience members who were constantly focusing on Ah Chen, now extremely curious about Ah Chen’s answer.
"If there is fate, we’ll meet again." Ah Chen repeated what the commissioner had said. As for her own calculated result, she had no intention of revealing any of it. After all, she still had to find the murderer who caused the commissioner’s death.
Who could guarantee that by revealing her calculated result, she wouldn’t trigger a series of butterfly effects?
Up until now, everything almost progressed along the original trajectory.
Even though her conflict with fellow apprentice Fu Yingshu was slightly different, both sides indeed had past conflicts.
Ah Chen took a sip of tea, remaining calm as if she didn’t think she’d just uttered nonsense.
Luo Yun opened his mouth, feeling that the answer was somewhat perfunctory.
But Feng Chen should have some skills; otherwise, it couldn’t be explained how the other party wasn’t afraid of heat at all yesterday.
Ge Yu didn’t probe further. The water runs very deep in the Mystic Master profession. Feng Chen answering this way might mean she hadn’t calculated the result, or she might have but didn’t want to reveal much due to some caution.
Disappointment flashed in Deborah’s eyes, not expecting this answer.
Of course, she wouldn’t think that Ah Chen had calculated more of the truth. After all, there were so many powerful figures present, like Ge Yu and Fu Yingshu, who are considered very skillful, but their divination results were all wrong.
No matter how skilled Feng Chen was, she wasn’t beyond the likes of Ge Yu and Fu Yingshu, and perhaps she wasn’t adept at divination. So having no result and saying something vague wasn’t unexpected.
In fact, quite a few present were bullshitting to save face.
The ones present knew, the audience could see, and presumably, the people from the Wen Family also understood.
But towards others and towards Ah Chen, the audience’s attitude was obviously different, especially her critics and Lin Xixi’s fans, who got excited.
["Feng Chen fudged her way through the basic test, now she’s not pretending at all."]
["This sounds like something a charlatan under the bridge would say."]
["Even my grandma would doubt this if she heard it."]
Ah Chen’s fans didn’t react much to her statement; long-term followers weren’t in it for some magical ability.
But others criticizing their Boss Feng, the fans wouldn’t accept it and started to argue back. After all, their Boss Feng hadn’t done anything heinously wrong, right? Why do these people insist on insulting her?
"Sir, there are just too many freeloaders here."
Wen Song glanced across the screen to Ah Chen’s face, not very concerned: "It’s all trivial in the grand scheme; as long as Shi Yang can be found, it can be considered charity."
Alas, the people around him sighed. They also wished that Miss Shi could be found soon, so that the sir would be happy and wouldn’t often sit in one place dazing, which made them feel quite uneasy in their hearts.
Wen Song appeared before everyone again, speaking calmly: "There is one more thing I forgot. The reason for gathering all you masters here at the castle is because Shi Yang said she would reunite with me when she left back then."
"I anxiously asked her when. She said, eleven years later."
"So, I’m asking you all for help."
Wen Song’s face was filled with determination: "She wouldn’t deceive me; if she said eleven years, then it’s eleven years. I don’t know how she’s so clear about the reunion time, but with this answer, I must do everything I can to find her."
"That’s also why I’m making such a public spectacle of it, hoping she’ll see it and remember something, and come here, even just to pay a bit of attention."
The audience listened, deeply moved, finally understanding.
Everyone present was a bit surprised, not expecting this reason behind it all.
Is Shi Yang not just anyone? Otherwise, how could she know she would reunite with Wen Song in eleven years?
Yet, quite a few people thought of a possibility, and their expressions suddenly darkened.
The possibility is that at that time, Shi Yang was just comforting Wen Song, afraid he couldn’t hold on, so she casually mentioned a number to help him get through it.
No one hoped for the latter; that answer was too sad.
Is there such a matter?
Ah Chen fell into thought; it was indeed possible. After all, the Shi Yang who was with Wen Song had traveled into Shi Yang’s body, so having some extra ability was conceivable. If the reunion was real, the other person might be reincarnated or perhaps traveled into another suitable body.
But the commissioner died too early, unaware of what happened afterward.
Did Wen Song get together with Lin Xixi? Did the time-traveling Shi Yang really ever appear again? And what happened?
She noticed the cold aura emanating from Deborah beside her, and couldn’t help but glance.
Deborah lifted her head, her expression unreadable, as calm as still water.
Her gaze gradually turned toward Wen Song, and she actually smiled, though it seemed eerie.
Ah Chen immediately realized Deborah might ask some questions, possibly not pleasant ones.
Sure enough, the next moment Deborah stood up, holding her snake-shaped staff, and directed her gaze towards Wen Song. Her voice was chilling and sinister: "Mr. Wen, have you seen my divination results? What do you think of them?"
Wen Song slightly furrowed his brow, but before he could speak, Deborah continued: "You are so concerned about Miss Shi; you’ve probably seen all our divination results, right? So, can you share your thoughts on my divination result? You might not believe it, but I’m full of confidence in my own divination results."
The audience was astonished; this witch had such nerve to speak like this, as if pointing at Wen Song’s nose, saying, stop searching, you won’t find her?
