"Old fortune teller, how many lives have you lived?"
Xiao Chen suppressed many thoughts and asked.
"I can't remember clearly, there are quite a few."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"Why are you asking this? Haven't you finished your life yet?"
"...I'm curious to ask, every time you start a new life, do you have memories of the past?"
Xiao Chen lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.
"No, memory is restored only under certain circumstances."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"Then when you took me in, did you regain your previous memories?"
Xiao Chen asked hurriedly.
"Huh? Why do you ask that? Is this important?"
The old fortune teller was a bit strange.
"It's very important to me. If you have memories, then you have a very strong purpose in taking me in."
Xiao Chen said seriously.
"Aren't the feelings between our grandfather and grandson not so pure?"
"..."
The old fortune teller was speechless and shook his head.
"No at that time, my memory is not complete. I only know that there is a mission..."
"Oh, then you are still my biological grandfather."
Xiao Chen showed a smile.
"..."
The old fortune teller didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could this guy be like a child?
"By the way, there is another question. Do you have many confidantes in every life?"
Xiao Chen asked again.
"...all the damn things I have together are not as much as yours."
The old fortune teller was unhappy.
"You also say that I am the incarnation of lust and desire in heaven. In comparison, I think you would rather be the incarnation of lust and desire!"
"...This is my destiny, and I can't stop it."
Xiao Chen talked.
"To be serious, you said that the rise of the Three Emperors also had your influence. Do the Three Emperors know about it?"
"They know part of it, but they don't know my true identity."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"You are the only one in this world who knows my true identity."
"I'm quite honored."
"...When I first saw Emperor Xuanyuan's clone, he recognized me when I showed my aura."
The old fortune teller continued.
"Later, I told him some things."
"..."
Xiao Chen asked a lot of questions again, and the old fortune teller told everything he knew. He was no longer as secretive as before.
In his words, I have even told you my biggest secret, and there is no need for anything else.
"Old fortune teller, what are you going to do next?"
Xiao Chen looked at the old fortune teller.
"In other words, what will Heaven do?"
"How it does it, I don't know, it is it, I am me."
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"It doesn't have any emotions anymore, and will do things according to the purest rules... It may kill the most powerful evil first, so as to severely damage the demons outside the territory, or it may have had a plan for it before! After all, I exist
, in fact, it can be regarded as one of its layouts.”
"Good fellow, everyone in the world is a gamer, even the way of heaven is the same."
Xiao Chen felt a little emotional when he heard the old fortune teller's words.
"Who is the chess player and who is the chess piece? Everyone thinks they are the ones holding the pieces, but in fact they are all chess pieces!"
"Haha, didn't you say before, 'If you enter the game with your own body, you will win half the battle'? Do you want to give it a try this time?"
The old fortune teller looked at Xiao Chen and smiled.
"The way of heaven is the most just, and it is exactly the same. I don't know how to adapt, or I don't even bother to adapt..."
"If you enter the game with your own body, you can win half the battle?"
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed.
"Can you win?"
"If you don't try it, how will you know? Anyway, I think I'm already better than half the world."
The old fortune teller smiled half-heartedly.
"I come from the way of heaven, but...I got rid of the way of heaven and walked out of my own way."
"Then try it."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Tell me first, what are you going to do?"
"Originally, I also thought that the ultimate evil could not be killed, or there was no other way to kill it except the way of heaven, but you killed the demon dragon, which gave me some ideas."
The old fortune teller picked up the cigarette in front of Xiao Chen and lit one.
"Heaven may want to kill the most powerful evil, but I want to fight with it, not for me, but for you."
"For me?"
Xiao Chen was startled.
"Yes, I have gone through reincarnation, either personally ending up, or watching with cold eyes... Every era has its protagonist, and you are the protagonist of this era."
The old fortune teller nodded.
"Actually, I feel that Heaven knows about it, otherwise why would you let you enter the divine realm in the first place?"
"You mean, it deliberately let me step into the divine realm? Didn't you negotiate with it at that time?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"And when I was building the foundation of the Divine Grade, life and death were on the line, and I didn't think it was holding back."
"If it doesn't give you a way to survive, you won't even have this chance of survival, do you understand?"
The old fortune teller shook his head.
"Of course, this is also in line with the way of heaven. There is a thin line between life and death."
"..."
"There are some things that I might not be able to do if I do it, because I am not the protagonist... but you can do it."
The old fortune teller continued.
"Kill the greatest evil, seize the opportunity, and then... destroy the Shengtian Sect, find the domain gate, and go outside the domain."
"Going outside the territory?"
Xiao Chen's eyes flashed.
"Facing the devil from outside the realm?"
"Um."
The old fortune teller nodded.
"Every powerful person who knows the 'truth' more or less has left behind more or less back-ups... And you, as the protagonist of this era, these back-ups may all be on your side! By then,
, you will become a real chess player, and they will become your chess pieces. Not only will you win half the chess pieces in the sky, but you will also destroy the demons outside the territory!"
"How could their back-up plan be on my body?"
"There is God's will in the dark... Some things can transcend space and time."
The old fortune teller smiled.
"Perhaps at the other end of the river of time, someone accidentally threw a bunch of torches, and it was you who picked up the torch and ignited a prairie fire."
"So mysterious?"
"Yes, it's so mysterious."
"Okay."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Then let's see if I can pick up this torch."
"Yes."
"What now? What do I need to do?"
"Keep getting stronger."
"good."
Xiao Chen leaned on the chair and didn't ask any more questions for a while.
What he learned today was enough for him to digest for a while.
Many things broke his understanding.
He only knows a lot. If he were an ordinary person, he would have to treat the old fortune teller as a mental illness and send him to a mental hospital.
What is the way of heaven, what is the long river of time... How can you talk about these things if you are not mentally ill?
"Boy, how do you feel knowing so many secrets?"
The old fortune teller asked with a smile.
"I always felt that you were full of secrets and didn't tell me anything... Fortunately, you didn't tell me before."
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. If he had known this earlier, he would have collapsed.
"Really? I said it, I didn't say it, it's for your own good."
