Ultimately, with so many people talking at once, even though Yu Fuzi trusted his "own people" the most, he didn't intend to go into any more details and just waited for Qin Yi to make a decision.

Qin Yi looked at him for a long time, then finally waved his hand. "Then we'll discuss it again."

Yu Fuzi smiled slightly, turned around and drifted away, as if he had expected Qin Yi's choice all along.

He glanced at Li Qingjun before leaving, his eyes looking rather strange, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

Li Qingjun remained silent, letting Qin Yi make all the decisions from beginning to end.

After Yu Fuzi disappeared, Qin Yi scratched his head and said apologetically to Li Qingjun, "I feel like I always get tricked into cooperating with people after just a few words. Zheng Yunyi was the same way back then... Am I too trusting?"

Li Qingjun laughed and said, "What else do you want? Kill them all, let the Profound Yin Sect know that something has happened here, so they launch a large-scale investigation, and we continue our deadly battle with Qian Yuan?"

Qin Yi leaned back. "So you knew your original action would lead to this result..."

Li Qingjun turned her head away a little embarrassedly. "I understood when I calmed down. The first time I saw them attacking the mountain and heard their arrogant remarks, I was just furious. You don't blame me for being reckless, do you?"

Qin Yi pinched her cheek. "I'm happier when you're reckless. Qing Jun is so calm and rational, seems to lack something."

Li Qingjun retorted angrily, "Masochist!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Li Qingjun continued, "As for cooperation, you're simply kind-hearted and broad-minded, not foolishly trusting them completely. The facts prove that the results have been good; even with Zheng Yunyi last time, the cooperation went quite well, didn't it?"

Qin Yi said, "So you also think it's possible to cooperate with Yu Fuzi?"

"I don't know this person well, so I can't make a judgment," Li Qingjun said. "But I can see that this person is extremely ambitious. In officialdom, he's the kind of person who would seize anything to climb up the ranks. He's also the kind of person who would usurp the throne and cause chaos... and you now have the qualifications to be seized by him."

"You've made me sound like a pillar."

Li Qingjun rolled her eyes at him. "Aren't you just a simpleton..."

Qin Yi stroked his chin and thought for a while, "Never mind, cooperation is cooperation, as long as we're prepared and have a sense of security. I wonder what's going on with the Thousand Mountains Alliance. Should we sneak over and take a look? Right now, if we want to deal with the Profound Yin Sect, the Thousand Mountains Alliance is the most natural ally..."

The voice of Shen Yunzi came from the mountain. "My two Benefactor... if you do not mind the simplicity of my humble abode, please come up for a chat, so that I may fulfill my duty as your host."

The mountain gate formation suddenly dissipated.

Qin Yi and Li Qingjun exchanged a glance and walked in with their heads held high.

Now that his skills are high and he's daring, he's really not afraid of this mere cloud-reaching level cave abode setup. After being cooped up in the cave for so many years, he really needs a place to understand the changes in the outside world. He doesn't even know how much truth Yu Fuzi is telling him, so it's probably more reliable to ask Shen Yunzi.

Upon entering the mountains, at the summit stood several houses, inhabited by a family—men, women, and a young boy—a typical cultivation Lineage. The only somewhat jarring element was that the male head of the household was a Daoist priest...

However, this conspicuous location is not surprising in the Land of Chaos. As Yu Fuzi said, this place is neither demonic nor Daoist; to truly believe the Daoists of the Land of Chaos are as reclusive cultivators is to lose. Even the so-called "blessing" is questionable in the Land of Chaos.

At least on the surface, it seemed to be a proper matter. The entire Shen Yunzi family bowed in unison. "Benefactor Shen Yunzi thanks the two benefactors for their help. Please, Benefactor, have a cup of Immortal Tea."

"You're too kind." Qin Yi and the other man returned the greeting with clasped hands. "It's only natural to help when you see injustice on the road."

Shen Yunzi's expression was rather strange. The idea of helping those in need was indeed unpopular in this Land of Chaos, and perhaps even less so in the cultivation world of Shenzhou. Most cultivators were content to mind their own business, and many preferred to live in seclusion. The woman's claim of "Otherwise, what's the point of cultivating immortality?" was practically unique. He truly didn't understand the situation between this couple...

Of course, given that he had already received their help, he couldn't possibly laugh at them. He simply said to himself, "It seems that my Daoist name was indeed well-chosen."

If it weren't for divine intervention, how could I have encountered a pair of eccentric individuals who came to my aid and saved my life?

Qin Yi then asked, "Does the Daoist Master cultivate the Dao of Qi and Destiny?"

Shen Yunzi led the two into the house and had them sit down. Several young attendants served them tea before he smiled and said, "Who dares to say they cultivate the Way of Destiny? I merely have a slight understanding of this path, and my actions are all in accordance with destiny. I can also foresee good and bad fortune, and avoid misfortune and seek good luck. On the surface, it just seems like I've hit the jackpot. But today's situation truly is a stroke of good luck; no one would have expected you two to suddenly come to my aid. Or perhaps it's the reward for my daily actions in accordance with destiny?"

Qin Yi then said, "Then, Daoist priest, can you tell me how my fortune is?"

Shen Yunzi glanced at Li Qingjun and then remained silent.

Both of them knew what he meant, it was practically written on their faces—you have such a flirtatious look on your face, can't you just say it to your wife?

Qin Yi was somewhat annoyed. "Speaking of which, it's one thing if others can't see my fortune, but you specialize in this path and all you see is peach blossom luck? What's the difference between your cultivation and others' partial cultivation?"

"It's not entirely that we can't see it..." Shen Yunzi said cautiously, "It's just that Benefactor fortune... is very strange, hard to say."

"Hmm? Why is it hard to say?" Qin Yi said, "We don't care what you say about peach blossoms, it would be best if you could describe them in more detail."

"My Benefactor's destiny is governed by the Peach Blossom Star, which signifies joy and indulgence. When this star enters a person's life palace, the person is strong-willed, fierce, and cunning—does this sound familiar?"

Qin Yi was taken aback; of course, the name sounded familiar. Even if they didn't study divination, they would still understand this basic common sense.

This thing describes none other than the famous Greedy Wolf Star.

The Greedy Wolf Star is the master of fortune and misfortune, meaning that he controls all the luck and can give luck to whomever he wants. How can others judge his luck?

Qin Yi pointed to his own nose. "Don't tell me I'm some kind of incarnate Greedy Wolf."

He thought to himself, "If it's some kind of 'Greedy Wolf Descending to Earth,' something so classic, Minghe couldn't possibly not see it. The Celestial Pivot Divine Palace senses the secrets of heaven and responds to the Milky Way. The so-called 'responding to the Milky Way' is what they're calculating. Why are you, Shen Yunzi, trying to pull this now?"

Hmm... although this Tanlang's temperament and preferences are indeed very similar to mine... hmm... fierce and cunning, isn't that a bit shameless...?

"No, no, no," Shen Yunzi waved his hand and said, "The reason it's considered strange is because my Benefactor's destiny... cannot be explained by the Greedy Wolf star at all."

Qin Yi was taken aback.

"Or to put it another way..." Shen Yunzi hesitated for a moment before saying, "It seems to be transplanted, and it's not the Greedy Wolf of this world at all... This dense Greedy Wolf aura has obscured the original destiny. As a result, the master and servant are reversed, the upper and lower are obscured, the secrets of heaven are confused, and no one can investigate. Others can only see the dense peach blossoms, but if they want to see clearly, they can only see a fog."

"..." Qin Yi lowered his head and drank his tea.

If that's the case, the original owner might have had a different destiny, and it was this otherworldly peach blossom that descended into this body, so intense that it overshadowed everything else?

It's not that simple...

Transplant, that's an interesting point... If someone else is the one who bestows this good fortune upon you, who is it, your own father?

Li Qingjun listened with interest, then pointed to herself and asked, "So, according to this, I resemble Army Breaker?"

Shen Yunzi glanced at her. "Your female Benefactor is like a dragon soaring in the sky, and a unicorn walking on the ground. She is clearly destined to be an emperor in the mortal world. I don't know why... it seems that her destiny was intercepted and she was led to the Immortal Dao of immortality... Once you enter the Immortal Dao of immortality, your past is severed, and you are no longer related to your original destiny. What happens in the future depends on your own choices. Now it seems that your choice is to assist this male Benefactor, and you have already created your own destiny."

Li Qingjun was slightly taken aback.

Qin Yi frowned.

This is even more interesting. It fits perfectly with Li Qingjun's life trajectory. It's definitely not just some empty promise to make you fill in the blanks yourself; it's genuine skill.

But this was intercepted...

Does this refer to Qin Yi... or Li Wuxian?
