Fang Xin's body paused slightly.
He slowly turned his head to look at the Old Woman sitting behind the low table.
The Old Woman's water-colored eyes still gazed calmly in Fang Xin's direction.
If anyone else had heard those words, they might not have reacted at all.
At most, they would have thought the Old Woman was just pretending to say some deceptive things.
But the Old Woman's words forced Fang Xin to stop.
Only he and his grandfather knew about Fang Xin's Slaughter Talent.
Everyone else who knew this secret had been killed by Fang Xin.
The Fang Xin in the mirror had also introduced himself as the King of Slaughter.
The Old Woman's words just now almost covered Fang Xin's identity and secrets.
Chu Xinyao didn't understand why Fang Xin had returned and sat down again.
But she still sat obediently to the side.
"Child, what do you want to ask?" The Old Woman's water-colored eyes stared at Fang Xin.
Fang Xin stared at the Old Woman, their four eyes meeting.
"May I ask, Old Woman, what did your words just now mean?"
The Old Woman chuckled softly, "They mean nothing, I am a blind woman, and blind people love to speak nonsense."
After a pause, the Old Woman continued, addressing Fang Xin, "Child, give me your hand!"
Fang Xin thought for a moment, then extended his hand.
The Old Woman held Fang Xin's hand, her water-colored eyes fixed on the void.
A few seconds later, the Old Woman's body trembled violently, her empty eyes staring at Fang Xin.
"What's wrong?" Chu Xinyao asked when she saw this.
The Old Woman turned her head directly towards Chu Xinyao, "Girl, you go out first, I have something to say to him!"
Chu Xinyao was puzzled, but in the end, she walked towards the door.
The Old Woman perked her ears to make sure Chu Xinyao had gone far away.
Only then did she turn her head back to Fang Xin.
Her water-colored eyes stared at Fang Xin.
"Child, close your eyes!"
Fang Xin closed his eyes.
As soon as he closed his eyes, he found himself in a battlefield.
Corpses lay everywhere, blood flowed like rivers.
Countless bodies piled up into a mountain of corpses.
And on top of the corpse mountain, a throne was placed.
Fang Xin was very familiar with that throne.
It was the throne Fang Xin had seen in the mirror before.
His subconscious urged him to walk towards the throne on the corpse mountain.
But in the next second, a golden light burst from his chest, piercing through Fang Xin's heart.
Fang Xin wanted to turn his head, but he couldn't see who had stabbed him in the back with a sword.
The person's face was covered by a mask.
Fang Xin wanted to remove the mask.
His vision blurred.
Fang Xin opened his eyes.
His heart pounded.
Fang Xin clutched his chest, gasping for breath.
The Old Woman's soft whisper came to his ears.
"The Ring of Slaughter pierces the human world!
The Sword of Hypocrisy offers the heart!
Eternal Night Descends!
You will eventually walk towards the throne!"
Fang Xin was slumped on the table, one hand clutching his heart, which was beating so fast he felt it might explode any second.
The Old Woman placed a hand on Fang Xin's shoulder, and a warm current flowed into Fang Xin's body.
Only then did Fang Xin slowly recover.
"Old Woman, what was that just now?" Fang Xin, now stable, looked up at the Old Woman.
The Old Woman chuckled softly, "To see the future is to see the future."
"This junior is slow-witted, I hope Old Woman will enlighten me."
The Old Woman smiled kindly at Fang Xin, "Child, I am a cursed person, there are some things I cannot say, but I can remind you, you must guard against one person."
Fang Xin suddenly looked up, staring at the Old Woman.
The Fang Xin in the mirror had also said this.
"Who?"
The Old Woman took out a clean handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Fang Xin's forehead, her gaze gentle, as if a kind elder was looking at her junior.
"I just said, I am a cursed person, there are some things I cannot say, but I can give you a hint: that person, she stands in the light!"
Fang Xin froze.
He slowly turned his head to look outside the door.
"Old Woman, is it her?"
"Is the person you saw her?"
Fang Xin recalled the person who had stabbed him with a sword, "I didn't see clearly!"
"Then I don't know!"
The Old Woman withdrew her hand, her water-colored eyes fixed on Fang Xin, her smile gentle.
"You should go back, that pretty little girl was supposed to leave Lan City today, but she delayed for you for one day."
Fang Xin got up, took out his phone, and transferred six thousand six hundred sixty-six to the Old Woman.
"Old Woman! About today's matter..."
The Old Woman smiled, "I am a blind woman, all I say is nonsense, and no one blindly listens or blindly believes a blind person's nonsense."
"Old Woman, can all powerful Diviners see these things about me?"
"Only three people in the entire Dragon Country can see it: I, the Diviner of the Dragon Country, and another, whom you will meet!"
Fang Xin stared at the Old Woman, not expecting such an existence to be hidden in a small place like Lan City, "Old Woman, you..."
The Old Woman raised her hand, interrupting Fang Xin's question, "All that is past is prologue, what the eyes see is the future! Child, we will meet again if fate allows!"
"Goodbye, Old Woman!"
The Old Woman nodded slightly.
When Fang Xin left the small shop, he felt a sudden lightness in his body.
He couldn't help but look back at the Old Woman's small shop; Fang Xin had clearly perceived that the other party posed no threat to him, which was why he had sat down.
But those images he had just seen...
Fang Xin could sense that the other party was a powerful Diviner, yet also gave off a feeling of being very weak; combined with what the Old Woman had said about being cursed, everything seemed to make sense.
Chu Xinyao poked Fang Xin, "Xiao Fang, what did the Old Woman just tell you?"
Fang Xin spoke serious nonsense, "She asked me whether sweet or savory tofu pudding tasted better!"
Chu Xinyao poked Fang Xin again, "Hmph, still hiding things from me!"
"The Old Woman also said just now that you were supposed to leave today?"
Chu Xinyao was stunned, "Wow! She knows that too?"
Fang Xin asked curiously, "This Old Woman's predictions are quite accurate, why are there so few people who come?"
Chu Xinyao walked beside Fang Xin with her hands behind her back, "Because this Old Woman only tells fortunes based on fate. She only comes when she's in a good mood, and if someone seeks her out after she arrives, she'll tell their fortune. If no one does, she'll only stay for a short while and then leave, so naturally, there are very few customers. Moreover, the fortune-telling at Fengming Temple nearby is also very accurate, so many people go to Fengming Temple!"
Huo Shi followed behind the two.
"Miss Chu, if you want to find someone to tell your fortune, the most powerful Diviner in the Dragon Country is a friend of Mr. Chu, you can certainly find him..."
Chu Xinyao stopped, turned around, and said to Huo Shi, "Please don't interrupt when we're talking! Please keep a certain distance from us!"
"Miss Chu, I am here to protect your safety!"
Chu Xinyao pouted, "Isn't Lan City very safe now?"
Huo Shi respectfully said to Chu Xinyao, "Miss Chu, after you were attacked last time, Mr. Chu was furious and proposed a decapitation operation. Although Lan City has been cleaned up once, it's better to be safe than sorry. I am here to..."
"Don't talk!" Chu Xinyao immediately interrupted Huo Shi's remaining words.
Fang Xin's eyes widened.
My goodness!
You bastard!
So, the decapitation operation was initiated by Chu Xinyao's father?
Chu Xinyao pulled Fang Xin's arm, "Xiao Fang, let's walk faster, ignore him!"
Noticing Fang Xin's expression, Chu Xinyao asked, "Xiao Fang, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Sister Chu, I don't want to work hard anymore, please support me!"
Chu Xinyao smiled sweetly, "Okay! Then you can stand behind me from now on! I will be your backing, your strongest support!"
He accompanied Chu Xinyao for an entire day.
After dinner in the evening, they went to watch a late-night movie.
Before Chu Xinyao got into the car, she waved vigorously at Fang Xin.
Fang Xin waved back.
By the time he got home, it was already past ten at night.
Fang Xin quickly washed up, returned to his room, and took out the phone his grandfather had sent from the drawer's false bottom.
He planned to watch that video later, then go to the bathroom to look in the mirror.
But when Fang Xin turned on the phone, he was surprised to find that there was a new message on it.
Fang Xin quickly opened the new message.
