Feng Xiange had done so, grumbling and acting so righteously. In the eyes of others, it was obvious that he was innocent.
Furthermore, he had indeed brought out many rare wines. With Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou's experience, there was no one else who could have done this. It was indeed the God of Wine who had done it. On the other hand, Heaven's Inquisition, Gu Chaliang, had not displayed any ability related to the legend of Heaven's Inquisition until now!
An expert who claimed to be omniscient had failed to divine the trap ahead of him and claimed that he had been shielded from Heaven's Will when he entered, yet he still could not divine it. Up until now, he had only been making excuses without any concrete evidence. He was highly suspicious!
"Let's rest here for a few days and recover." Ling Xiaozui said with a smile, "We'll go back when it's about time."
Feng Xiange asked, "Go back? Where can we go back to? "
Ling Xiaozui chuckled. "Of course we have to go back to Tiantang City. There are still things to be done there, especially since we have a lot of things there as well."
Heaven's Inquisition nodded and said, "That's right. It's necessary to return to Tiantang City."
Dugu Chou smiled faintly and said faintly, "However, the incident this time was unexpected. We came in high spirits, intending to completely dismantle the Four Seasons Tower. I didn't expect the Four Seasons Tower to have hidden so many pinnacle experts … When we were ambushed just now, it was truly a shock to this old man."
Ling Xiaozui sighed as well. "It's not that the Four Seasons Tower doesn't want to kill you, but if they really wanted you dead, you would have taken at least half of the eighteen people today. The Four Seasons Tower has gone through so much to hide so many experts. They must be planning something big. How could they lose them in a battle with you?"
Dugu Chou chuckled and said, "You don't have to be so humble. It's not that the Four Seasons Tower doesn't want to kill you, but if the Four Seasons Tower really wanted to kill you, at least half of the eighteen people here today would have to be taken away by you. The Four Seasons Tower has gone through so much effort to hide so many experts, they must be planning something big. How could they lose them in a battle with you?"
Ling Xiaozui thought about it and said, "That makes sense."
Dugu Chou asked casually, "Heaven's Inquisition, listening to Mr. Nian's conversation with you, there must be some history between you and them. I wonder if you know anything about the Four Seasons Tower's people or have foretold anything? Don't tell me you don't know anything about this? "
These words were uncontrollably thorny.
Gu Chaliang wore a bitter expression as he said, "I've been imprisoned by Mr. Nian for many years. My knowledge of the Four Seasons Tower's people, objects, and resources is shallow. As for divination … I've actually done it when I woke up just now. I can confirm that the group of people has returned and are hiding in the mountain once again. I've mentioned the mountain briefly before. There's a setup in the mountain that can shield the heavenly oracle. My divination is completely useless …"
Dugu Chou chuckled and said, "In other words, as long as they're on that mountain, you won't be able to divine them, right?"
Gu Chaliang sighed and nodded. "Yes."
He knew that it was inappropriate, but he had never expected such a place to exist in this world.
Dugu Chou smiled faintly, but there was a tinge of mockery in his smile.
Ling Xiaozui frowned and said in a low voice, "The Four Seasons Tower is indeed formidable. We've still underestimated the legendary Unrivaled Tower in the world!"
Feng Xiange snorted and leaned in to Gu Chaliang to say, "Heaven's Inquisition, please divine when this old man will die."
Gu Chaliang grimaced. "Feng Xiange, we've just escaped from danger and you're just standing there in a daze. Don't you have anything good to divine?"
Dugu Chou said, "How is this Rigley? We should be very concerned about matters of life and death. Now that we're caught unprepared and the situation is changing subtly, with your Divine Foretelling here, when are we going to wait if we don't seize the opportunity to hear about it? Quick, help Feng Xiange. I think this fellow's life force has been severely depleted. Together with his previous injuries, I don't think he has many years left to live."
Feng Xiange chided jokingly, "Dugu Chou, you old b * stard! You're older than me! Why don't you say that you don't have many years left to live? "
Dugu Chou guffawed and urged, "Divine quickly, divine quickly. I've long heard that Heaven's Inquisition's divination is unparalleled in this world, but I've never seen it with my own eyes. It's a shame. If it doesn't work today, we won't let you go!"
Gu Chaliang was helpless, looking at Ling Xiaozui pleadingly.
Ling Xiaozui looked at him for a while and said, "If it's inconvenient or inauspicious, just don't say it out loud."
Gu Chaliang chuckled and said, "If so, let me take a look."
He studied Feng Xiange's face with rapt attention, studying him from head to toe.
Feng Xiange still wore a disdainful smile as he glanced sideways at Gu Chaliang.
However, the more Gu Chaliang looked at Feng Xiange's face, the more perplexed he looked. After some time, he shook his head as if to shake off the dizziness, then a deep frown formed on his face.
'This isn't right! '
Gu Chaliang was already screaming in his heart, full of doubts, but he did not show it on his face. He was only deep in thought.
People like Gu Chaliang had always had a habit of reading the faces of the people he came into contact with, whether they were useful or not. After that, he would bury the information in his heart.
Those who asked would pay a certain price, and once they were satisfied, they would give some vague advice. It could be said that they were pointing out the right path, or that they were deliberately mystifying, but it was hard to come to a conclusion.
During this period of time, Gu Chaliang had read the faces of Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou, and Feng Xiange so many times that he was familiar with them.
However, looking at Feng Xiange's face this time, Gu Chaliang was taken aback.
'Why has Feng Xiange's face changed? '
Gu Chaliang's heart was in turmoil. "Looking at his physiognomy, although he still has a long life ahead of him, he'll stop at a few decades to a hundred years at most. It's inevitable that he'll die. But why does it look like his physiognomy has changed? With such exuberant vitality, he might not die even after a few thousand years … '
'What's wrong with him? Could it be that I've seen wrongly? Or has Feng Xiange been hiding his strength? But he's heavily injured now, how can he hide his strength? '
'This is impossible! It doesn't make sense! '
'Could it be someone else? No, it's still impossible. This aura, this sense, this … it's impossible that it's someone else! '
Gu Chaliang studied Feng Xiange's face for a long time, bewildered, not speaking for a long time.
Feng Xiange snorted and said, "Why? Don't tell me that I'm going to die soon? It's too inauspicious, so you're too embarrassed to say it? "
As he spoke, Gu Chaliang snorted as well, lifting his head to look at Feng Xiange's face. Just as he was about to speak, he was stunned again.
This was because … the extremely rich vitality that Feng Xiange had exuded earlier had vanished completely.
He looked like an old man at the end of his life.
No matter how hard he tried to maintain it, he would definitely die within a hundred years!
Gu Chaliang was stunned.
He had never seen such a physiognomy in his entire life!
It could actually change, changing back and forth!
'If I were to show it to you, won't I be ruining my Heaven's Inquisition's reputation? '
Gu Chaliang shook his head. "Your face is too strange. I can't understand it. I admit that I'm untalented, alright?"
The three of them snorted in unison.
Gu Chaliang snorted as well, tilting his head nonchalantly. He glanced at Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui's faces and was shocked again.
Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou's faces had turned black, looking even worse than Feng Xiange's dying face. Gu Chaliang could not help but be shocked as he murmured to himself.
"What's wrong with these two? Why are there so many strange things happening today when I read their faces? Looking at the complexion of these two people, it's obvious that they've been schemed against, but I can't tell who schemed against them or how they schemed against them … But before I went up the mountain, I specially took a look at them in order to predict the good and bad luck of this trip, and there was no such situation … "
"If they've been tricked since the beginning, how could I not have seen it?"
"However, if they've only been tricked now after being ambushed, yet there's clearly no outsider near them, who could it be?"
Gu Chaliang suddenly shuddered at the thought.
This was a terrifying situation to contemplate!
…
"Meeting in Hangzhou. Can't return until the 21st. I'm afraid I can only write one chapter these few days, and it might even be broken … There's no helping it, I can only fill it up when I get back.
