Chapter 420: Peering into Qin Xuan's Future

"Mr. Huang Yuan, the Heaven Sect has a request!"

The Sect Master of Heaven Sect cupped his hands at the entrance of the Directorate of Celestial Affairs.

This pavilion appeared to be right before them, but it was actually situated in the boundless Void Realm, elusive and intangible.

Even the Sect Master of Heaven Sect could not enter without the permission of Mr. Huang Yuan of the Directorate of Celestial Affairs.

Rumble—

As the voice of the Sect Master of Heaven Sect fell, the pavilion before them gradually coalesced into a solid form.

The great doors swung wide open.

The Sect Master of Heaven Sect, accompanied by a hesitant Heavenly God Lin Yuan, stepped into the Directorate of Celestial Affairs together.

The moment they crossed the threshold, the Sect Master of Heaven Sect and Heavenly God Lin Yuan felt the world spin before their eyes.

When they steadied themselves, they were already located within a boundless Void Realm.

Stars filled the sky, flickering in and out of brightness.

Beneath the stars sat a small wooden table, and beside the table sat an old man dressed in star-patterned Daoist robes.

"Please, sit!"

The old man wore a kind smile, gesturing an invitation to the Sect Master of Heaven Sect.

"Greetings, Mr. Huang Yuan."

Even as strong as the Sect Master of Heaven Sect was, he was exceptionally respectful before the old man.

"Mr. Huang Yuan, the Director of the Directorate of Celestial Affairs!"

Upon seeing the old man, Heavenly God Lin Yuan's heart was stirred with tumultuous waves.

The existence before him was an ancient being from the same era as the Human Emperor.

No!

Mr. Huang Yuan was an even older existence than the Human Emperor; he was an abyssal valley that had gained sentience after bathing in the blood of experts for millions, or even tens of millions, of years.

His art of divination was so profound that even the Human Emperor admitted inferiority, appointing him as the Director of the Imperial Dynasty's Directorate of Celestial Affairs to peer into the fortune and misfortune of the Imperial Dynasty's national destiny.

Heavenly God Lin Yuan had assumed that such an ancient existence had long been submerged in the river of time, vanishing into thin air along with the Human Emperor.

After all, there had been no news of Mr. Huang Yuan on the Hongmeng Continent since that great battle.

He never dreamed that Mr. Huang Yuan was still alive, and actually within the Secret Realm of the Heaven Sect!

"Mr. Huang Yuan, my disciple encountered an Emperor Realm cultivator outside who is practicing the Human Emperor Scripture!"

"That person is named Qin Xuan, and with his Emperor Realm body, he is able to counter-slay those in the Heavenly God Realm; even my disciple is no match for him."

"I fear that once he unleashes his full power, it will be enough to shake a Lord Level existence!"

The Sect Master of Heaven Sect came straight to the point, blurting out the purpose of his visit.

Huang Yuan's expression rarely showed surprise, "There is such a thing? Sect Master, are you suspecting that Qin Xuan is walking the path of the Human Emperor and cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture?"

"Impossible!"

Huang Yuan immediately shook his head, "The Human Emperor has already fallen, his body and Dao dissipated, his existence erased from the river of fate; there is no possibility of resurrection!"

"The Human Emperor Scripture was completely erased from the river of time by the combined efforts of The Nine Supremes; it is impossible for anyone to walk the path of the Human Emperor!"

Even now, when Huang Yuan recalled the secret history of those years, he still felt like needles pricking his back.

The Human Emperor had become possessed and slaughtered all living things.

Even he, having foreseen the great calamity, had nearly perished.

Fortunately, he had captured a glimmer of survival in advance, which allowed him to meet the Sect Master of Heaven Sect while heavily injured and be saved by him.

Otherwise, he would have long since perished in the river of fate along with the Human Emperor.

"Mr. Huang Yuan, what my Master says is true; everything actually happened."

Heavenly God Lin Yuan was exceptionally polite before Huang Yuan.

That was an ancient existence from the same era as the Human Emperor.

His background was even greater than his Master's.

As a Heavenly God Realm cultivator, if he were to harbor even the slightest thought before Huang Yuan, he feared it would be detected.

He casually redrew the scene of the battle with Qin Xuan, playing it back before Huang Yuan's eyes.

After the time it takes to burn an incense stick, Huang Yuan's eyes revealed a look of shock and fear, "Human Sovereign Qi! The Human Emperor Scripture! This Qin Xuan actually carries the Human Emperor Legacy, and has cultivated the Human Emperor Scripture to such a profound level; with Human Sovereign Qi protecting his body, he can remain invincible within the Heavenly God Realm!"

Heavenly God Lin Yuan was startled!

No wonder he had been unable to break through Qin Xuan's Physical Body defense earlier.

So this guy was practicing the Human Emperor Scripture and had Human Sovereign Qi protecting his body!

Although he was full of confidence, he was not arrogant enough to think he could contend with the means of the Human Emperor.

"Regarding such a strange matter, Mr. Huang Yuan, do you think my Heaven Sect should nip it in the bud, or resolve the grievances?"

The Sect Master of Heaven Sect was not a hesitant person.

If it were anyone else, even a Lord Level, he would have stepped forward to suppress and kill them.

However, Qin Xuan was too strange, and his relationship with the Blood Fairy was inexplicable.

Even he could not act decisively.

One move could affect the whole situation.

A single decision of his could plunge the Heaven Sect into an unrecoverable situation!

Huang Yuan glanced lightly at the Sect Master of Heaven Sect and said with amusement, "Is the Sect Master here to have me divine fortune and misfortune before making a decision?"

The Sect Master of Heaven Sect nodded without denial, "That is exactly my intention."

Huang Yuan became interested and said, "It is indeed unexpected. The Human Emperor should have completely fallen, with no chance of shedding his body to reincarnate, and the Human Emperor Scripture should have been erased. The existence of this Qin Xuan is like an accident."

"Even if the Sect Master did not ask, now that I know of this matter, I would like to investigate it clearly."

He raised his hand, and the stars filling the sky gathered together, transforming into a crystal-clear compass in his hand.

On the compass, stars were densely packed, resembling a universe.

The Sect Master of Heaven Sect looked worried and said, "Mr. Huang Yuan, there is no need to be so anxious. Predicting the future carries a huge backlash. It would be better to wait until my Heaven Sect sets up a great array to conceal the heavenly secrets before proceeding with the divination."

Huang Yuan chuckled, "I have predicted even the Human Emperor himself more than once! I have been able to divine the Human Emperor, to whom even The Nine Supremes had to bow and submit, let alone a Qin Xuan who has not yet grown up?"

"Never mind that it is impossible for him to be the Reincarnation of the Human Emperor; even if he truly were, against all expectations, the Reincarnation of the Human Emperor, so what?"

"The backlash from divining the Human Emperor could not erase me, so why would a Reincarnation?"

His true form was an abyssal ghost valley.

Born from bathing in the blood of countless experts.

He possessed countless lives; as long as he shattered a drop of an expert's essence blood, he could heal again.

The backlash of divination only required him to burn a drop of essence blood.

Why go to such great lengths?

He just felt that the Sect Master of Heaven Sect was being overly cautious!

"Do you have any of Qin Xuan's clothing?"

Huang Yuan asked, and the Sect Master of Heaven Sect turned to look at Heavenly God Lin Yuan.

Heavenly God Lin Yuan shook his head awkwardly, "Qin Xuan has Human Sovereign Qi protecting his body; I never managed to harm him."

To put it bluntly, he couldn't even break Qin Xuan's defense, so how could he tear his clothes?

Huang Yuan asked with amusement again, "Is there any aura of Qin Xuan's existence?"

His art of divination was so profound that he could perform a prediction based on just a trace of aura.

The Sect Master of Heaven Sect nodded, then restrained a trace of aura and sent it before Huang Yuan.

He knew of Mr. Huang Yuan's extraordinary nature and had made full preparations in advance.

Huang Yuan channeled this trace of aura, injecting it into the compass in his hand, then bit his fingertip and spat out a mouthful of essence blood, which fell onto the compass.

"I would like to see, just what is the background of this Qin Xuan!"

Qin Xuan was too strange, so strange that even Huang Yuan was exceptionally curious.

His Soul, along with the rotation of the compass in his hand, entered into the interior of the compass.
