Ye Tian Yun planned to kill and disguise as either Qin Wentian or Shi Yi to head out of the sect.
He wanted to disguise himself as them to easily follow the disciples who were enlisted for the secret mission.
And then at the right opportunity, he would show himself for the Token Of Fate.
Unfortunately, now that Qin Wentian and his partner were suddenly heading back to their sects, this plan was instantly scrapped.
Now he had to find a different way to get out the sect, or else he would certainly miss a big opportunity to get the token.
'If I knew this was going to happen, it would have been better for me just to take Xiao Ming's place.'
Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but slightly regret it.
He really hadn't thought of such a scenario where those two would leave the sect.
Mainly because he knew this place was like a vacation spot for them and they wanted to enjoy their time to utmost capacity.
However, fate had different plans and they had now left the sect.
'What could have happened for them to be called back?'
Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but think as this question popped up in his mind.
He couldn't think of any answer - even after focusing on the events from his previous life - there wasn't anything significant that had happened in the middle heavens at this time, let alone in the very calm Heaven Oracle Sect.
Ye Tian Yun shook his head and removed useless thoughts.
There was no point in wasting his time in thinking about whatever was going on in that sect.
What he needed to worry about was what he should do next.
Things were troublesome now.
'Should I disguise myself like Qin Wentian and return - No, that's useless.'
Ye Tian Yun immediately eliminated this idea.�
Not only did he need the blood of Qin Wentian to disguise as him, he also needed to get out of the sect so he could 'return.'
'If I have to go out of the sect just to disguise like Qin Wentian, then what's the point of disguising? I could just head out without it and wait for the disciples.'
Ye Tian Yun then began to think of something else.
'Should I tell the Sect Leader that I have changed my mind?'
He thought for a moment and then just shook his head.
No point in doing that - First, the Sect Leader will not agree, and even if he did agree, Ye Tian Yun would still have repercussions regarding the fate.
'System, if I were to replace Xiao Ming, what are the chances of me encountering the Token Of Fate ?'
[Host, do you know how fate works?]
Ye Tian Yun frowned as he fell in a thought, and after a few moments he replied, "What I think is, fate is like a road and everyone follows this."
"Each person has his road, and all these roads are interconnected."
[Host, you're close to the truth.]
'You explain to me how fate works.'
[Host, there's nothing much to explain; however, System would like to add one condition to the reference you have just used.]
Ye Tian Yun nodded as the System continued with the next prompt.
[You took an example of a road and said that all roaded are interconnected. What the System would like to add is, even though they are interconnected, a person can't leave his roads. For him, the path is straight. He can't see these interconnections between the roads.]
'Doesn't it mean that if I were to take Xiao Ming's place, there's a high chance I may not encounter the Token Of Fate?'
[Exactly. Earlier, this is why the System also said that it was quite impossible to judge how everything may turn out.]
'You're saying that the result doesn't change but 'how' one reaches it is unpredictable? Like, Xiao Ming will get his Token Of Fate - that is written on stone. But how will he get it? No one can answer.'
[Yes, Host. This is what System meant.]
'Hmm,' Ye Tian Yun narrowed his eyes and began to think of any other solution to get out of the sect.
Just then, he suddenly smelt a mouth-watering aroma and couldn't help but lose the train of his thoughts.
In the next moment, a few maids were serving plates of dishes on his table.
Without saying anything, Ye Tian Yun quietly began to eat.
The food was very tasty.
And tasty food is always a distraction.
Because of this, Ye Tian Yun was now unable to think of anything else.
He pushed the plate in front of him away, and began to think again.
The maids who were standing were shocked by his actions.
To them, his act simply meant that he didn't like the food!
The maid who had served Ye Tian Yun when he had sat down on the table, came forward and asked him, "Senior brother, were the dishes not up to your taste?"
Ye Tian Yun, however, didn't reply and just waved his hands at her.
Gesturing her not to disturb him anymore.
Ye Tian Yun leaned back and began to think of another way before continuing with food.
He forced himself to think and not eat so that he could pressure himself.
And this simple trick actually worked!
He finally found out what he needed to do to get out of the sect.
A simple solution, but few tricky things to do to succeed.
The idea was pretty simple -
Ye Tian Yun needed to follow the Disciples who were enlisted for the secret mission.
But he didn't need to follow everyone. He only needed to take note of Xiao Ming.
So, what if he disguised himself as one of the disciples who were enlisted for the secret mission!?
However, this wasn't as easy as it sounded- because other than Xiao Ming and Yuan Shuchun, he didn't know anyone else to be part of this mission - even after he included his knowledge of his previous life.
So who was he going to target?
