But if she and Qi Haoran weren’t compatible, what kind of person was suitable for her?
Mu Yangling thought for a long time but couldn’t figure it out. In the end, she decided to let nature take its course. Forget it, there would be a way out when the time came. Perhaps before she even had to reject him, Qi Xiuyuan would already have made Qi Haoran dispel those thoughts.
However, having received such a grand birthday gift from Qi Haoran this time, what gift should she return next time?
Mu Yangling had a headache. At this moment, Qi Haoran looked at Yuan Hui expressionlessly… Master, if this 25-year-old monk could be considered a master.
Yuan Hui looked at Qi Haoran gently and said, “Young Master, you have a full forehead signifying a lifetime of wealth. Logically speaking, you shouldn’t be stranded here. Mm, despite having a faint relationship with your father, you have deep brotherhood ties. Young Master, you’re very lucky.”
Yuan Hui’s eyes sparkled as he sized up Qi Haoran. In the end, he concluded, “Young Master definitely shouldn’t have fallen into such a state.” He asked in confusion, “Can I take a look at your palm?
The corners of Qi Haoran’s lips twitched. Since he could guess that someone like him shouldn’t end up in such a state, why couldn’t he guess that he had infiltrated?
Since he was already here, Qi Haoran decided to just show him his palm.
Yuan Hui held his hand in satisfaction and looked at it. He said happily, “Young Master, you have excellent palm lines. Although you’re not cut out to be a scholar, you have the makings of a martial marquis. If you join the army, you will definitely become a great general.”
Yuan Hui hesitated for a moment before asking, “Young Master, do you have other brothers? I’m not referring to the one who came with you.”
Qi Haoran looked at him meaningfully and said, “I still have another elder brother.”
Yuan Hui heaved a sigh of relief. As expected, he had calculated correctly. He looked at the young man in front of him with a conflicted expression. Should he take this opportunity to curry favor with him?
As soon as this thought appeared, Yuan Hui hurriedly despised himself. How could a monk behave in a subservient manner?
Yuan Hui puffed out his chest to show that he had a backbone.
Just as Qi Haoran was about to say something, the door was pushed open forcefully. A black tower-like figure walked in quickly. When he saw Qi Haoran in front of Yuan Hui, he asked with a frown, “Who are you?”
Seeing the wariness in his eyes, Qi Haoran took a step back and lowered his head. “I’m here to deliver clothes to the Celestial Master. He offered to read my fortune and see how my future luck is.”
“Oh?” Black Tower narrowed his eyes and looked at him as he slowly asked,
“Then what did Celestial Master say?”
Yuan Hui frowned, but he still didn’t say anything. Qi Haoran didn’t even raise his head as he replied, “Celestial Master said that I will become a rich person thanks to my big brother in the future.” Qi Haoran raised his head and revealed a mouthful of white teeth. His eyes sparkled as he said, “In the future, I won’t have to worry about starving anymore.”
Black Tower laughed loudly, and patted Qi Haoran’s shoulder with his large hand, saying, “Good luck. Without having to rely on your big brother, you don’t have to go hungry now. Alright, you can leave. I’ll call you if I need anything.” Qi Haoran retreated. When he closed the door, his footsteps could not help but slow down and lighten. In the room, Black Tower warned, “Celestial Master, if there’s nothing important, it’s best not to summon outsiders…
It turned out that the Celestial Master was not free to act as he pleased.
Qi Haoran started analyzing the situation in his heart. The people in the city seemed to be very convinced by the Celestial Master. Then, did they know that the Celestial Master was being controlled?
When Fei Bai saw Qi Haoran return, he heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly pulled him to a secluded place. He said in a low voice, “Master, I’ve asked around. Other than the Celestial Master, everyone here listens to Tang Jing. Tang Jing is the tall guy who looks like a black tower. 1 heard that he used to work in the silver mine… Master, this place is too dangerous. There are nearly 8,000 young adults here. Let’s think of a way to leave, okay?”
“Mm.”
Fei Bai said happily, “You agreed?”
Qi Haoran nodded. “But we have to bring the people here out too. At least, we have to bring these 8,000 young men out.”
Fei Bai looked at Qi Haoran in a daze. Was this a dream, or was this a dream?
Fei Bai was about to go crazy. There were only two of them!
Qi Haoran used facts to prove that he was not dreaming.
Yuan Hui was controlled by Tang Jing. Although he was smiley, it didn’t mean that he was willing to be treated as a puppet. How long could Tang Jing let Yuan Hui become the supreme god of this city?
The conflict between the two was already very obvious. If Yuan Hui didn t do anything, the only fate that awaited him was an ascension to the heavens, just like the ascension of Buddha.
Hence, Qi Haoran approached Yuan Hui when he went out and told him that he should cooperate with him if he wanted to obtain freedom.
Yuan Hui agreed without any hesitation, making Qi Haoran, who had prepared a lot of excuses, unable to react for a moment. However, Yuan Hui seemed to have seen through him and said, “I knew long ago that someone would come to save me and these 40,000 people. And since you’re the brother of the Son of Destiny, I can’t go wrong following you.”
Qi Haoran went crazy after a moment of shock. Son of Destiny? It mustn’t be what he thought.
He and his Big Brother were dedicated to serving the Imperial Court and dying for the Great Zhou. Qi Haoran glared at Yuan Hui and wondered if he should end this person after leaving this place.
However, Yuan Hui seemed to know what Qi Haoran was thinking and said directly, “Young Master, don’t worry. I definitely won’t tell anyone about this, except your big brother.”
Qi Haoran took a deep breath and said, “If you’re not afraid of death, go ahead and say it. Even if my big brother has a good temper, he won’t let you off.”
However, Yuan Hui said firmly, “I’ll definitely tell him when I’m certain he won’t kill me. Of course, I’ll be even happier if you can tell your big brother before I do.”
‘Then you will die even faster.’ Qi Haoran swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue and said, “Be prepared. We will only bring those 8,000 young men out. After we deal with them, we will come back to pick up these commoners.”
Yuan Hui nodded as if he was not worried about how Qi Haoran would deal with them at all. He only looked at the starry sky in worry and said, “The world is about to change, but the Emperor still doesn’t know how dangerous it is.
Sigh—”
Qi Haoran wondered what the Emperor would do to Yuan Hui if he handed him over to the Imperial Court.
“Did you people rob so many grain warehouses because of what you said to Tang Jing?”
There was a hint of sadness in Yuan Hui’s eyes. “Everyone aspires to greatness in their hearts, but few know the number of lives that would be sacrificed in order to achieve it. In the past, Tang Jing was very loyal and treated his brothers well. Although his methods were a little ruthless, he never bullied the commoners for no reason. I didn’t expect certain words to affect him so much.”
“Then why did you still say it?”
Yuan Hui looked at Qi Haoran with even more sadness in his eyes. “But I just couldn’t help it. Sometimes, I want to cut off this tongue, but I can’t bring myself to do it. Master said that someday I’ll die because of this mouth of mine. I’ve been waiting for that person to kill me.”
Qi Haoran opened his mouth wide, feeling that he had most likely met a lunatic. Yet, this lunatic was praised as a Celestial Master and everyone obeyed his words.
Qi Haoran scratched his head and decided to stop killing any of his brain cells. He said, “Then be prepared. Don’t worry, as long as they don’t resist, we definitely won’t kill anyone..’1
