You Have the Ill Omen of Bloodshed

Clearly, the Buddha's Disciple and the Divine Calculator have fallen out.

Lin Fan saw this and couldn't help but ponder it.

Now that the Divine Calculator is a teammate, at least in this instance, I should naturally try to help him out!

"Just now, the Divine Calculator hesitated repeatedly, which is not like him."

Behind him, Fan Jianqiang, who had always been honest and unassuming, seemed to say something unintentionally.

Lin Fan listened and nodded silently.

"Indeed, such prodigies would not hesitate if they didn't have something to fear, so..."

"Afraid the calculation won't be accurate?"

Lin Fan had no idea that the Divine Calculator's inaccurate predictions were due to his connection with him and his involvement in the matter.

It is unknown whether the Divine Calculator has already determined that even the Buddha's Disciple cannot predict accurately.

but...

None of that matters. What matters is that Lin Fan has a foolproof method to win!

It's just a matter of fortune telling, isn't it?

Lin Fan was amused.

As someone who has benefited greatly from modern education, especially after enjoying nine years of compulsory education and reading countless novels and comics, this is nothing!

To give a simple example.

Many fraudulent fortune tellers have absolutely no skills and can't predict anything accurately, but they can make people believe them without a doubt as soon as they open their mouths. Why is that?

Because they're good at bluffing!

How do you fool them?!

The father died before the mother!

For example, what do you do if an older person says this to you right away?

Let's analyze the possible outcomes first.

There are only four possible outcomes for a person's parents: 1. Both are still alive.

2. I went to both.

3. My father is still alive.

4. Mother is still alive.

Is there any other result besides this?

Let's now apply the interpretation of "father alive, mother dead" to this.

Both are here? Well, we can't verify that for now, so let's leave it at that.

The next three options? That's interesting...

If both go, there are two possible outcomes: the father goes first or the mother goes first, which corresponds to the third and fourth options respectively.

In other words, in the end there were only two options: whether the father or the mother would go first.

So...

What if the father passes away first?

No problem. The father died before the mother, right?

What if Mother leaves first?

The father was alive, but the mother died first.

One punctuation point is also correct!

This is a universally applicable phrase in fortune telling; it never makes a mistake no matter how you say it, and it can be explained in any way.

And most people who go to fortune tellers are people who deeply believe in these things. So, do they believe it or not?

As soon as the fortune teller spoke, he pondered it.

Hey?!

This fortune teller is amazing! I didn't say anything, and he saw through it and figured it out!

If I give you a few more similar catchphrases, you can easily fool most people into believing them without a doubt. Then everything the fortune teller says will be right!

Of course, this doesn't mean all fortune tellers are frauds, but rather that... there really are many 'sure-win formulas' in this industry!

However, Lin Fan certainly wouldn't use these generic phrases at this moment, because they lack any real skill!

Besides, what kind of place is this?

The Cultivation World!

Are these cultivators not smart enough? If they get caught, it will only make things awkward.

Therefore, Lin Fan came up with an even more brilliant and foolproof method to win...

In his view, the Divine Calculator is destined to win today!

Even if Jesus came, we'd still win, as Lin Fan said!

"I can't figure it out."

Faced with the doubts of the Buddha's Disciple.

The Divine Calculator calmly said, "Everyone says that heavenly secrets cannot be revealed, especially since you've come to ask me this while you're embroiled in emotions."

"I can calculate it, but once it's out there, you do the opposite of what I said. In that case, how can I possibly calculate it accurately?"

"Then let me ask you, can you predict what I will do today?"

The Buddha's Disciple's scheme was exposed, but he was not angry. Instead, he chuckled and said, "You can't be sure."

Then he spoke again, "Can you figure out who left this secret realm behind? And who will ultimately reap the benefits?"

The Divine Calculator narrowed his eyes slightly...

"It can be calculated naturally."

Wow!

"How could you calculate that?"

The crowd erupted in uproar.

"Who left this secret realm? It must have been left by an unparalleled expert!"

"To be able to calculate whose treasure it is? Then... who is that person?!"

Most people turned pale, and those like Zou Hu became especially wary...

The Divine Calculator and the Buddha's Disciple are both incredibly 'unorthodox'. They are skilled in divination and their predictions are exceptionally accurate, and they have long been famous.

If they were to speak now, who would benefit the most, and what would the outcome be?

There's a high probability that others will team up to cripple and drive that person away first...

So what if I was the one who originally benefited from this? If they point it out and I become the target, wouldn't that be...?

What? You're saying their calculations are inaccurate?

Come on, if they open their mouths, it means the secrets of heaven have been revealed. In that case, what's wrong with changing the outcome?

"Is that so?"

The Buddha's Disciple grinned. "I don't believe you. Tell me!"

"What a coincidence, I was just about to ask you the same question." The Divine Calculator turned the tables on him. "Why don't you tell me?"

"I'm the one asking you."

"I'm not as stupid as you."

The Divine Calculator chuckled, his bloodshot eyes somewhat frightening.

"I know what I should say and what I shouldn't say. If not, and I say I can't predict it, then you do it?"

"Then I can't be sure either."

The Buddha's Disciple could no longer laugh.

He really wanted to kick the Divine Calculator a few times, and at the same time, it would be best to eliminate some competitors. Wouldn't that be great?

That's why I asked this question. Regardless of whether the Divine Calculator's predictions are accurate or not, those who are named by him will definitely receive special 'attention' from others. That's for sure!

But the Divine Calculator remained silent...

At this moment, the Buddha's Disciple couldn't help but have some thoughts.

"Could it be that, like me, his divination skills have temporarily failed him within this secret realm?"

"If that's the case..."

The Buddha's Disciple was filled with thoughts, and soon came up with a plan to "checkmate".

But before he could speak...

The Divine Calculator heard a telepathic message from Qi Zixiao and gently raised his hand.

"Things shouldn't happen more than three times. You've already asked two questions in a row, so I'll ask the third one."

The Buddha's Disciple was secretly on guard, but his expression remained unchanged as he smiled and said, "Alright!"

"Then let me ask you, is there anything wrong with me today?"

"I don't know."

The previously wary Buddha's Disciple immediately relaxed. "How is this different from the first question?"

"If I tell you, you will avoid it yourself. Even if you answer, it won't work. Let's not bring up these kinds of questions again."

Everyone else was initially very interested.

Everyone wants to see how the two most skilled diviners among the younger generation will 'go head-to-head' and 'compete'.

However, the back-and-forth exchange, full of sharp words, yielded no substantial results, leaving them quite disappointed.

"Yeah, that's a pointless question!"

"Even if the calculations are very accurate, once the product is exported, the other party can find ways to avoid it..."

"Are you guys even capable?"

"Why do I feel like I'm even worse than a con artist?!"

Some people couldn't help but shout and express their dissatisfaction.

The Buddha's Disciple was not in a hurry, but simply looked at the Divine Calculator and said calmly, "Why don't you ask me another question?"

"No need."

The Divine Calculator laughed, a bright and cheerful laugh, but his bald head and bloodshot eyes made him look somewhat terrifying.

Why not use it?

The Buddha's Disciple pressed for an answer.

"Because you have already lost."

The Divine Calculator remained calm and confident.

Where did we go wrong?

"I lost because... I just asked you if you could predict what I would experience today, and you said you couldn't."

"Ha, so this is considered a loss?"

The Buddha's Disciple scoffed, showing none of the composure expected of Buddhism: "Tell me, how exactly did I lose?"

"Because..."

The Divine Calculator lightly made a finger gesture, and mysterious laws were operating around him, making him appear unfathomable and moving everyone present.

"I can predict what you will experience today."

"Um?"

The Buddha's Disciple was startled: Had his divination methods not failed him after all?!

The Divine Calculator was too calm, as if victory was already in his grasp.

But how is that possible?!

The Buddha's Disciple was puzzled, but he could not show weakness at this moment, otherwise he would lose.

Therefore, he laughed and said, "Nonsense. The world-renowned Divine Calculator is nothing special after all."

"I myself don't know what I'll experience today. The situation is constantly changing, so how could you possibly predict it?"

"If you are truly confident, then tell us and we'll see. After today, the difference in skill will be clear."

His words practically made it clear that he would cheat!

Whether your predictions are accurate or not, I will avoid the things you mentioned and see how accurate your predictions are!

Who knew?

The Divine Calculator remained calm and said indifferently, "Of course, there's no problem."

"Then tell me, what will I experience today?!" The Buddha's Disciple frowned, not understanding where the Divine Calculator's confidence came from.

But at this moment, you absolutely cannot be intimidated.

"You..."

The Divine Calculator spoke, his tone shrouded in mystery. "Today there will be a bloody disaster."

What?!

The Buddha's Disciple was taken aback, then burst into laughter.

"A bloody disaster? Hahaha, very well, let's see if I'll suffer a bloody disaster today!"

"However, after today, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your reputation Divine Calculator!"

"Is that so?"

The Divine Calculator grinned. "But in my opinion, you have already lost."

"Nonsense!"

"Don't believe me?"

The Buddha's Disciple stiffened his neck. "Of course I don't believe it."

"Very well, since that's the case, there's no need to wait until today is over. Let everyone here be a witness to see who is truly the number one among the younger generation in this art of divination and fortune-telling."

"That's only natural."

Lin Fan spoke up, being the first to offer his support.

"Senior brother, you are undoubtedly the number one master of divination!"

The Divine Calculator followed closely behind...

Most of the others hadn't reacted yet.

Will Buddha's Disciple suffer bloodshed?

Could it be...?

Is there great danger here?

Otherwise, how could the Buddha's Disciple possibly suffer a bloody disaster? After all, he should be under strict protection!

However, their doubts instantly turned into utter astonishment...

Boom!

The Divine Calculator, who was right next to him, suddenly made a move, his whole body radiating a crystal light, and slapped the Buddha's Disciple hard across the face!
