Lies as Prophecy, Overturning Life and Death!

As Qin Siyu's life force gradually dissipated, the chaos in the Earth Vein became increasingly apparent.

Just as the "Diviner" said...

Qin Siyu's blood could be used to cast "Witch Gu Curse Technique" to assist the Demon Ancestor Gantuo, who had been awakened beneath the seal, in corrupting the Great Rui Emperor, who served as the Array Eye the formation.

This also proves...

Qin Siyu is indeed Bloodline of the Great Rui Emperor.

This female Thief, whose origins are unknown and who is only known to have been adopted by a village, actually possesses such a noble and illustrious Bloodline.

But this Bloodline brought her no benefit—in her long life, its only Bloodline was bringing her trouble at this moment...

A death sentence.

Lin Yu stared silently at Qin Siyu's corpse for a long time before being broken by Master Wei Jian's angry shout.

"You bastard, you beast, do you have any humanity left? You can't even be considered a human being?!"

Master Wei Jian spoke, the "Diviner" gave Master Wei Jian a cold look.

"That noisy old man... tsk."

As he spoke, he gently raised his hand, and because the Formation had fallen into chaos, the Earth Vein Power that he had regained control of sealed Master Wei Jian again, before slamming it heavily against the wall.

Although Master Wei Jian was much healthier than the average old man due to his years of Artifact Forging, he was still quite old.

Although the "Diviner" didn't use much force, he was still knocked unconscious and fell to the ground.

The "Diviner" looked at Lin Yu and spoke in a low voice.

"You can no longer stop me from taking control of this Formation and taking away the Demon Ancestor Gantuo —give up," Director.

"I don't want to kill you, and you don't need to die here—do you?"

Lin Yu ignored the "Diviner's" statement. He simply looked at Qin Siyu on the ground and said, "So, the 'Diviner'... from the very beginning, the whole scheme within the Duxuan Sect... was designed for Qin Siyu, is that right?"

"Her Martial World Passage, the Yaomo 'Living Foot,' and even her arrangements targeting 'Feng Shui Master' were all incidental, right?"

"You only did this so that I could meet Qin Siyu."

The Diviner snapped his fingers lightly, a smile playing on his lips. "Quite astute, Director... But I didn't know that what I was waiting for was for you to meet 'Qin Siyu' —I could only calculate it based on my deduced Destiny..."

"Keeping Qin Siyu trapped within the Duxuan Sect is the best option for me."

"Of course, I know Brother Cunyi very well, so I naturally know that 'Duxuan Sect' is practically his sect, so I've more or less guessed that... this matter might be related to Brother Cunyi," the Diviner paused, then continued, "And if Brother Cunyi really does appear, then I'll naturally have to prepare more measures against him."

"Firstly, if I had the chance to completely eliminate Brother Cunyi, it would be a relief for me... Secondly, Brother Cunyi could serve as a perfect pretext, making people completely overlook my true objective."

The Diviner spoke with undisguised confidence.

He pointed to his head, tilted it slightly, his full head of translucent white hair swayed gently, and his Phoenix Eyes held a hint of self-satisfaction.

"I'm quite the cunning genius, aren't I, 'Director'? It won't be easy to fool you, will it?"

The Diviner said with a smile.

Lin Yu said in a low voice, "What if I hadn't brought Qin Siyu here?"

"What 'Cold Cicada' will bring—my plan is very thorough," the Diviner shrugged, "Besides... I hold Destiny in my hands, so naturally I believe in Destiny."

What you perceive as a low-probability, accidental event is, in my view, a predetermined event with a high probability of occurrence, even one that can be considered inevitable.

"Although the Authority of Fate is still shattered, the flow of Karma in this world, and the predetermined trajectory of each person, still exist, only not as absolutely as when this Authority was in place."

"In fact... that's precisely why those of us who possess the [Fragment of Fate] can more easily glimpse all of this—you must learn to use 'Destiny' wisely."

Diviner spoke, he gently nudged Qin Siyu's arm, which was resting at his feet.

"Just like this little girl who has the blood of the Great Rui Imperial Clan flowing through her veins, and is even a direct Bloodline of this Founding Emperor, isn't it an incredible fate that allowed me to find her in the vast sea of people?"

Lin Yu looked at the Diviner, then at Qin Siyu at his feet, and laughed, "Heh... yes, but 'Diviner,' I know you've always valued me... but this time, you underestimated me."

Lin Yu took a deep breath, stared at the "Diviner," and spoke coldly.

"Did you really think... I didn't notice anything unusual about Qin Siyu at all?"

"Do you really think I can't see through your clumsy tricks and poor concealment?"

Do you really think that a mere 'Doppelganger' is enough for you to take charge here?

"Do you really think that, after the Asylum, after what happened with 'Max,' I'd let you pull the same trick on me twice?"

As Lin Yu spoke, his Soul Power coalesced, and he looked at the "Diviner" who was squinting at him, taking a deep breath.

Very good, very good...

He was reflecting on his words, he was reflecting on his performance.

Even Diviner wouldn't remain unmoved by such a dedicated performance.

I've done my best.

So now... it's time to test the strength of the "Fraudster," this "Unique Profession"!

Just how far can the power of "belief" go?

Lin Yu stared at the "Diviner," looking at this clone, which, although it was Doppelganger, was absolutely connected to his main Doppelganger, just like the "Diviner" who descended in the Karma Threads Illusion. He spoke with a resounding voice.

"From the very beginning, I was wary of the possibility that you might harm Qin Siyu —I sensed something amiss with her soul."

--This is a lie. Lin Yu genuinely didn't notice the abnormality in Qin Siyu's soul this time because the "Diviner's" arrangements were too ingenious and concealed. Moreover, along the way, there was the erosion of "Living Foot" and the methods planted in Qin Siyu's Bloodline by "Cold Cicada." As a result, although Lin Yu noticed that Qin Siyu's condition was a bit off, seeing her lively and energetic, and considering that she was Native the Prison Mountain Realm, he really didn't expect that her soul had been tampered with by the "Diviner."

But thankfully, I can still salvage the situation!

"Back then, I didn't know the reason... I thought you just wanted to plant a hook next to me so you could ambush me and monitor me, like Max. But thankfully, you idiot actually used the same method as Max did."

--This is still a lie. Lin Yu doesn't know if the "Diviner" uses the same methods as "Max." Although his expertise in the soul realm is also very high, Lin Yu still can't figure out the principle behind the Diviner's method... His methods are too sophisticated!

But Lin Yu had to take a gamble and make a judgment. He was betting that the Diviner couldn't possibly have two such superb methods, nor could he possibly be so confident in his methods that he wouldn't need to use them a second time!

"But... 'Diviner,' you've got one thing wrong. My mastery of the soul realm, my Soul State, has exceeded your imagination. Do you think 'Schreiber' is the only one who received the inheritance of the First Generation 'Freud'? Although I don't like that guy, he was indeed quite good to me... Think about the plane where your capable henchman 'White Sand' died... Ha, do you think it's a coincidence that 'Schreiber' appeared there?"

--This is not a complete lie, Lin Yu knew, he had to reveal some truth. If he wanted to deceive the "Diviner", he couldn't just use facts that were completely fabricated out of thin air.

Although the identity of "Schreiber" and the relationship with the "Director" were supposed to be developed gradually, there was no time to worry about that now!

Crazy plans always come at a price... Just like Lin Yu specifically mentioned "White Sand" in order to provoke the "Diviner" and interfere with his judgment.

"And, Diviner, do you really think that completely shattering someone's soul means they're 'already dead'? Don't be so foolish—the fact that 'Max' was able to enter the 'Death game' proves that, in the 'Death game's' judgment, the person whose soul you shattered is still alive... Do you think you have more authority than the 'Death game'?"

--This is not a lie, but the complete truth... Lin Yu had already seen that the "Diviner's" declaration was actually somewhat exaggerated for the sake of momentum.

Whether it's Qin Siyu or "Max," although they are "dead" in a sense, it's like someone whose internal organs have ruptured but who stands up on Adrenaline —you could say that person is dead, and that would indeed be true.

But strictly speaking, before true "death" arrives, they are still alive.

Only when bodily functions completely cease and consciousness completely dissipates can true "death" arrive!

With Lin Yu exposing the Diviner's "lie," or rather, revealing his flaws, the Diviner finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"Splitting words like that... Director," I didn't expect you to actually find the death of this Native so hard to accept.

"But even if she was alive just now, so what? Could you possibly bring her back to life?"

"To be honest... even if I had told you earlier, you still wouldn't have been able to save her—from the moment I shattered her soul, I couldn't save her myself. I could only let her linger in the world like a lost ghost for a while."

Very good, they not only listened, but also started a conversation.

Lin Yu looked at the "Diviner," his face revealing genuine joy, which was then mixed with a hint of disdain.

"That's not necessarily true," the Diviner. "... You, at the 'Tier 4,' don't seem to be any more knowledgeable than I imagined."

"I told you, my mastery of the soul realm surpasses yours."

As Lin Yu spoke, he fully revealed his soul aura.

He laid bare his fragmented soul before the Diviner.

"I will... ensure Qin Siyu's survival."

The lies uttered by the "Fraudster" were as resounding as a prophecy!
