In the photo, Jiang Xiaoyao is having a drink at a street bar and takes a selfie with his phone, intending to post it on his Moments.
However, a little girl who accidentally entered the background shocked all the Elders present, and even Jiang Di.
"How could it be Chu Xialing..."
And Chu Xialing is precisely the Emperor Daughter of the Yun Clan, the daughter of the Yun Emperor!
Jiang Di quickly asked, "Why didn't you say something so important earlier?"
Jiang Xiaoyao rubbed the back of his head, grinned, and chuckled awkwardly:
"I took a holiday to Yan Yu City that day and heard that the wine there was really good."
"So I couldn't resist and drank a bit too much. I just remembered... Sorry about that."
Everyone's mouths couldn't help but twitch. When it came to being carefree, it seemed no one could truly surpass this person.
Soon, Jiang Xiaoyao regained his composure and continued:
"So I believe a large part of the rapid surge in the Yun Clan's fate is due to Yan Yu City."
"Just as the first half of the prophecy says, 'Misty rain falling, Immortal descending to dust.'"
"'Misty rain falling' likely refers to the location being Yan Yu City, while 'Immortal descending to dust' refers to an Immortal falling into the mortal world."
At this moment, the Fifth Elder, who had not spoken, asked:
"What about the second half? How is it related?"
"'Misty clouds obscuring,' in my opinion, refers to an event."
"It might even be a major event that no one can understand or see the outcome of, as if their eyes are covered by misty clouds."
"As for 'stranger,' it means two people who don't know each other."
"If we connect these fragmented explanations from the two parts, I believe it is..."
"An Immortal has appeared in Yan Yu City, and neither you nor I know them."
"Only when a major event that no one could have predicted happens, will we know."
Jiang Xiaoyao's deduction directly silenced everyone.
After a long while, Jiang Di suddenly spoke:
"So, in your opinion, do you think this major event is the bet between this Yun Mochen kid and Zhu Di?"
Jiang Xiaoyao didn't shy away, took a sip of wine, and smiled:
"Haha, Jiang Di, I'm just guessing. As for whether it's true or not, I can't guarantee it."
"Moreover, I think this matter can not only connect the Emperor Child Jiangnan Tian with Yan Yu City but also make him highly respected and noticed by everyone."
"This is also part of the accumulation of fate."
In fact, what Jiang Xiaoyao said was true.
Although something like fate seems ethereal and intangible, you can never deny its existence.
Whether a Family or even a country can prosper for a long time, fate plays a large part.
And the source of fate is also quite metaphysical.
Some come from the descendants born into the Family, some from the blessings of the Family's ancestors, and even from an unexpected treasure, and so on.
And as the Emperor Child born in the prophesied prosperous age, to some extent, he is the main fate of the Family.
And once the Emperor Child achieves a major Breakthrough in cultivation or state of mind, or is noticed and respected by the whole society and even the whole country.
Then, invisibly, the fate on the Emperor Child will also increase accordingly.
"Xiaoyao, I think your deduction on this matter is very correct."
"What kind of wine do you want? I'll bring back a few bottles for you another day."
Jiang Xiaoyao grinned and chuckled, "Jiang Di, no need, no need."
"Just don't punish me."
Jiang Di felt a bit puzzled and looked at him curiously:
"What does that mean?"
Before Jiang Xiaoyao could answer, he had already moved to the entrance of the council hall.
"Jiang Di, those two bottles of wine hidden by your bed, the taste is really too rich. I couldn't resist and had a taste..."
"You bastard, don't you run away! Cough, cough, cough..."
Jiang Di was so angry that he almost had a heart attack. That was the wedding wine he was saving for his son to marry a Wife.
"Dad, why are you so angry?"
Just then.
A handsome young man walked in from outside, went straight to Jiang Di's side, and patted his back.
And he was Jiangnan Tian, Jiang Di's only son.
"Cough, cough... It's nothing."
Jiang Di waved his hand and then asked:
"Son, have you heard about that matter in Yan Yu City?"
Jiangnan Tian nodded, his expression showing little reaction.
"Dad, you don't need to worry about such things."
"It's just a wild kid mouthing off. Let him make a fuss if he wants to."
Jiangnan Tian's words surprised Jiang Di greatly, "Aren't you worried about your reputation being affected?"
Jiangnan Tian shook his head.
"Dad, in terms of background, our Clan is only slightly inferior to the Yun Clan. Any other hidden small families can't compare to us."
"More importantly, I have great confidence in my talent, which can crush all doubts."
"If that reckless kid is really determined to seek death, then on the day of the college entrance examination, I will definitely not go easy."
With that, a hint of ruthlessness and disdain appeared on Jiangnan Tian's Face.
Jiang Di laughed heartily and patted his shoulder:
"Good boy!"
Then, he turned to look at the Elders:
"Remember, don't privately go looking for trouble with that young man."
"We are a cultivation Emperor Clan, and any small matter will be infinitely magnified by those with ulterior motives."
"And Tian'er's talent will undoubtedly be at the top of the college entrance examination this year, so we just need to wait until that day and watch that foolish kid's joke."
"As for that little girl Zhu Qing'an, I believe Zhu Di will also communicate with her properly."
The Elders trembled and said respectfully:
"Yes! Jiang Di!"
...
The setting sun cast long shadows as the young man walked alone in the afterglow.
Many passersby recognized that this young man was the top trending topic today and couldn't help but discuss him.
However, the young man didn't pay attention to their gossip. Life is lived for oneself, and as long as his conscience is clear, that's enough.
"Master, you were so cool today!"
"Tong Zi, where's the reward?"
"I've put it all in the System space! Just tell me when you need it, Master, and I'll take it out for you!"
Fortunately, there was still a God-tier Foundation Establishment Pill, the kind that guarantees 100% success in Foundation Establishment!
Otherwise, what happened today would have made him even sadder.
Even though he knew that Zhu Qing'an must be saying one thing and meaning another.
But being told to break up in person in front of the person you like, it will more or less leave a scar in your heart.
"The alley... where you live..."
Just then, Yun Mochen's phone rang.
"Hello, Luo Wu Qing Teacher, what can I do for you?"
"Mo Chen, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, Luo Wu Qing Teacher, thank you for your concern."
After exchanging a few polite words with Luo Wuqing, Yun Mochen hung up the phone.
However, for some reason, after this call, his heart felt a little warmer, and his mood also became much more relaxed.
To save money, Yun Mochen chose to walk home.
Soon, the afterglow slowly stretched his figure, and the bustling street scene around him began to become dilapidated and narrow.
An hour later, he arrived next to a vegetable market.
The surrounding stalls were displaying their goods, with vendors calling out to attract customers.
Fish, shrimp, meat, all kinds of vegetables, everything was available.
"Oh, our Mo Chen is back."
Yun Mochen looked over at the sound and saw a big-bearded uncle.
The uncle was burly and looked quite fierce.
He was shirtless on his upper body, wearing a black apron with suspenders.
He put down the large cleaver in his hand and smiled, waving at him.
