"I know it—you’re a Star Divination Master," Mu Nan exclaimed, as if suddenly remembering something. His finger trembled with excitement as he pointed at Mu Hanyan. "It must be true. How else could you have realized that the Fire Orchid was fake, easily found the right direction, and escaped the stone forest? If it were us, we might not make it out even in a year. Yes, it must be so, it must! Star Divination Master, Brother Han Yan, you really keep your talents hidden, being a Star Divination Master!"
Being too excited, Mu Nan was almost incoherent.
Mu Hanyan rolled her eyes. A Star Divination Master, huh? If she had to choose the most detestable occupation in the world, it would definitely be a Star Divination Master.
Nevertheless, it was a Star Divination Master who had declared her a lifetime of failure. Although this declaration had helped protect her, deep down she abhorred Star Divination Masters, treating them as charlatans. Fresh chapters posted on novelFɪre.net
Indeed, from her experiences in her previous life, the vast majority of Star Divination Masters were indeed charlatans, causing death and disaster without retribution.
How dare they call me a charlatan? In what way do I resemble one?
Although she was quite upset, Mu Hanyan did not refute.
The secret of the Star Illusion Thousand Machine must not be revealed lightly. So, the identity of a charlatan—no, I mean a Star Divination Master—was indeed a good explanation.
Besides, many of the things she had done could only be reasonably explained by claiming she was a Star Divination Master.
"I got it right, didn’t I? Brother Han Yan, you truly are a Star Divination Master. That’s incredible! There were charlatans who once called you a natural-born failure, but look, you’ve become a charlatan yourself, hahaha." Taking Mu Hanyan’s silence as agreement, Mu Nan believed he had grasped the true nature of things and laughed proudly.
Mu Hanyan’s face darkened instantly. Even though she had apparently accepted being a Star Divination Master, how could she be compared with those deceitful charlatans?
"So the young master is a Star Divination Master; no wonder he could discover Huayue and I among all living beings. To the eyes of a Star Divination Master, natural talents like us must be like fireflies in the night, right? So bright, so dazzling that it’s impossible to escape his sight," Zirong said with a face full of reverence and self-admiration.
"Ugh... just kill me now. I can’t be around such shamelessness any longer," Huayue finally spit out.
Joking aside, the respect in Zirong’s eyes grew when he looked at Mu Hanyan. Not every Star Divination Master was a charlatan, at least the one before them had proven his Star Divination Technique with facts.
Real Star Divination Masters were revered, their status far surpassed that of Swordsmen. They transcended national boundaries, respected throughout the Holy Court Continent.
At this moment, Mu Hanyan did not realize that this small misunderstanding would lead her further and further down the path of a charlatan, ultimately becoming a legendary Divine Fortune Teller... Well, more accurately a genius Divine Fortune Teller.
"Are we close to the place you mentioned?" Mu Hanyan asked Che Xiangwang once everyone had calmed down.
"It should be just up ahead, but something seems a bit off," Che Xiangwang said, looking forward strangely.
The small hill ahead was covered with various flowers and grass, lush green and richly colored, like a giant flower garden. A gentle breeze carried a strong scent of flowers and herbs, refreshing and delightful. Clearly, these were no ordinary plants, but all medicinal herbs.
