Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 383 The Great Fortune Bears Sacrifice

After this experience, Yan Ben warmly invited Chu Danqing to stay temporarily.

Chu Danqing did not refuse. Since there was a month to go, she could observe the situation first.

Yan Ben's attitude towards him was one of both respect and fear.

As for Chu Danqing's idea, it was actually quite simple: to first find out the truth.

The bottom line has been reached, and there's an unexpected surprise.

"That's roughly how things are. What are your thoughts?" Chu Danqing asked Yang Qianyuan.

After the matter was settled, Chu Danqing summoned Yang Qianyuan.

Since returning last time, Yang Qianyuan has been practicing diligently.

Not only did his own rank increase to Tier 2, but the Prophecy Spider Fei Di also evolved.

Fei Di transformed from a prophetic spider into a yarrow-patterned tortoise-shell spider.

Not only is it larger in size, but its eight legs have developed tortoise shell patterns, and its abdomen displays yarrow veins.

Yarrow was used as a divination tool, alongside tortoise shells.

Therefore, if a yarrow plant grows a hundred stalks, there must be a divine tortoise guarding it beneath.

Of course, it is also related to Yang Qianyuan's identity.

The emperor's yarrow stalks were nine feet long, those of feudal lords were seven feet long, and those of high officials were five feet long.

"As for your opinion, Brother Chu, do you want to play it safe or seize the initiative?" Yang Qianyuan thought for a moment and then offered two options.

"If we want to play it safe, then we'll naturally follow Brother Chu's plan and remain unchanged in the face of any eventuality."

"If I want to gain the upper hand, I can directly use divination to locate the token."

"Let's take the token and get away."

"This career and trial are probably one and the same, so we don't need to worry about local disputes," Yang Qianyuan said.

Chu Danqing thought for a moment, then said, "After the token is activated, one can obtain the so-called Hidden Dragon Destiny, and the Heavenly Ring also has the ability to make one a chosen one of destiny."

"So there might be some hidden secrets. I...you...never mind, you can conduct your divination within a safe range."

He originally wanted to deduce other things, but judging from Yang Qianyuan's attitude, he knew Yang wouldn't listen to him about intelligence matters.

The medicine that Chu Danqing had prepared for Yang Qianyuan last time had not yet been used up, although the efficacy of the medicine would decrease after Yang Qianyuan reached level 2.

However, the Goddess of Cats is there as a safety net. Her followers can heal the backlash from Heavenly Secrets. As long as they are still alive, they can most likely be saved by her.

Chu Danqing didn't tell Yang Qianyuan about this.

Chu Danqing knew without even thinking what would happen if he found out.

"Don't worry, Brother Chu, I know what I'm doing." Yang Qianyuan said, and then began to deduce the secrets of heaven with Fei Di.

Ten minutes later, the divination was completed.

"The bad news is exactly as you said, Brother Chu, there is a secret hidden from heaven."

"Fortunately, there is also good news. I have found a person with great fortune."

"We can then use the other party's luck to obtain a token."

"And incidentally, we can also steal some of their opportunities," Yang Qianyuan said, wiping away the blood flowing from his nose.

“Then it seems that the token is indeed in Jingyang City.” Chu Danqing immediately said, “This token can be considered a divine object, therefore divine objects are naturally concealed.”

“In previous years, eight or nine out of ten people who obtained the token in the Heavenly Ring were people with great fortune.”

"However, very few people possess the destiny of a hidden dragon."

"So these people with great fortune seem to have gained an advantage, but in reality, their great fortune is just a resource for their tokens."

The information about the Heavenly Ring that Chu Danqing obtained through his memories was very comprehensive.

"Brother Chu means we can't be the first to get the token; we have to be the second, otherwise the token will absorb our luck." Yang Qianyuan immediately understood.

“That’s right. The so-called chosen one is likely the result of five people with great fortune coming together.” Chu Danqing continued, “That’s why they have the ability to turn bad luck into good, turn misfortune into good fortune, and have their wishes fulfilled.”

"Can you pinpoint who this person with such great fortune is? Let's find a way to lure them into the game beforehand."

Chu Danqing was certain that the Yan family was related to the token, and therefore would definitely be connected to those with great fortune.

Chu Danqing was unsure when this contact with the other party had occurred.

He didn't intend to wait; he wanted to act as soon as possible.

Although there was only a month to go, since Yang Qianyuan suggested that he take the initiative, Chu Danqing would listen to him.

After all, Yang Qianyuan is a professional.

"Well, the other side is still on their way, but they've already arrived."

“Brother Chu, your identity is also part of her scheme.”

"Given your great fortune, Brother Chu's identity, and the results of the divination, there is an 80% probability that this person is Princess Golden Sparrow."

“However, what they are after is probably not the token, but the treasure of the Western Luo Kingdom,” Yang Qianyuan quickly concluded.

Chu Danqing wasn't too surprised to hear this.

After all, this identity and the city of Jingyang where she resides are too closely connected to Princess Jinque.

"So what do we do next?" Chu Danqing asked.

Yang Qianyuan smiled and said, "It's simple, just wait."

Chu Danqing also thought it made sense; otherwise, they couldn't very well intercept Princess Jinque halfway there.

However, Yang Qianyuan didn't finish his sentence; he left out half a sentence.

It should be enough to wait for someone to die.

If he were merely a diviner of celestial artifacts and great fortune, his current strength wouldn't have led to this backlash. The reason he suffered the backlash was because he went further and divined the future.

Only after Yan Ben's death will there be any further developments.

If we told Chu Danqing, the other party might not necessarily die.

To ensure that things would be more advantageous for them in the future, Yang Qianyuan naturally preferred to avoid trouble.

It's just a stranger dying; they suffer no loss.

"By the way, how are things on your end?" Chu Danqing suddenly asked. "Judging by the time, your cousin Yang Qianzheng's lifespan should be coming to an end soon, right?"

Yang Qianyuan paused slightly, then said, "I have lost contact with my cousin for some time, and his death should be kept secret."

"Now we'll see what my cousin did in his lifetime."

"But don't worry, Brother Chu, after Fei Di evolved into the Yarrow Tortoise Spider, my ability to predict the future has reached a new level."

"With the equipment you've provided to protect me, even if my brother fails, I'm confident I can seize power."

Yang Qianyuan knew that this was a necessary result, not a process.

Only by becoming emperor could his status among his allies gradually rise.

“We can take our time, there’s no rush,” Chu Danqing said. Among them, Yang Qianyuan was the weakest but the most irreplaceable.

The entire Tianji system and intelligence work depend on him.

As for asking him to give up, even if Chu Danqing did, Yang Qianyuan would not listen to him.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Yang Qianyuan accepts whatever he offers; if Yang Qianyuan were to receive resources without doing anything, the other party would never accept it.

"Like Brother Chu, I don't fight battles unprepared." Yang Qianyuan would only make a move if he was confident of success.

If they really rebel, it will be a fatal blow; the longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes.

"So, are you planning to go back to Yangwang or stay here?" Chu Danqing asked.

"Stay here. The struggle in the capital is still unresolved."

"Even if the results are in, it will take at least half a month to get from the capital to the suburbs of Ying."

"I've already built up my hopes enough. Instead of pinning my hopes on that small force, I'd rather have the Goddess of Cats send me a divine artifact to directly establish my dominance over the world." Yang Qianyuan's idea was simple.

Raising troops and building prestige is too much trouble; let the enemy provide you with a powerful weapon.

Then, a bloody cleaning was carried out.

Political infighting? Even a dog wouldn't do that.

Having spent so much time with Chu Danqing, he understood the principle that fist is power very deeply.

As for the claim that this power does not belong to him?
It's fine once the enemy is dead.

"Alright, then you continue your cultivation. How many pills do you have left?" Chu Danqing said, "I'll take a count and ask Brother Guo to get you some superior-grade pills next time."

I don't have the money now, so I can't even get it done.

He had some left over, but he used it all to support the Goddess of Cats.

The current amusement park locations can only be used for maintenance costs.

"Not much left. The last time Wanlingxian taught me, I gained a lot, so I successfully broke through to the second level."

"So the pills are being used up quickly, and they can only last for another month at most." Yang Qianyuan was quite blunt: "You can take more next time, especially the longevity pills, I really need them."

Chu Danqing nodded: "Okay, I understand."

"Xiong Jinglue should be around level 2 as well, and he mainly relies on pills."

"Besides him, we also need to equip his subordinates with the necessary personnel; this time, they need to be at least of the best."

The soldiers under Xiong Zhigang's command also need elixirs to cultivate and grow, but they certainly don't need such good elixirs.

Only the excellent level can be used.

Fortunately, Xiong Zhigang's soldiers have the advantage of his military lord profession. As Xiong Zhigang's strength increases, they will also become stronger.

Resource replenishment is more like an extra boost.

"Brother Chu, you've gone to so much trouble," Yang Qianyuan said. "It's getting late, and we have things to do tomorrow. Brother Chu, you should get some rest. I'll keep watch tonight."

"You're here to keep watch? Are you sure you can handle it?" Chu Danqing looked at Yang Qianyuan with some suspicion, feeling that Yang Qianyuan was hiding something from him.

"Why not? In terms of perception, can Da Bao compare to me?" Yang Qianyuan said confidently.

Chu Danqing thought it made some sense.

"But I gave up sleeping a long time ago, and now I use cultivation to replace sleep every day." Chu Danqing's perception was indeed not as good as Yang Qianyuan's, who was from the Heavenly Mystery system.

The point of keeping watch is not perception, but whether or not one can sleep.

“Then Brother Chu, you go ahead and cultivate. You can take the night shift,” Yang Qianyuan said immediately.

Hearing Yang Qianyuan say this, Chu Danqing didn't think much of it and immediately began cultivating.

Around midnight, Da Bao, who was sleeping cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes and realized that something was wrong.

But the next moment, Da Bao met Yang Qianyuan's eyes. Yang Qianyuan gently shook his head, indicating that it was his plan and that Da Bao could continue sleeping.

Da Bao was a little confused, and then glanced at Chu Danqing, who was cultivating.

Yang Qianyuan is one of our own, he certainly wouldn't harm them.

So Da Bao lay down to sleep again.

About five minutes later, a smile appeared on Yang Qianyuan's lips.

The person is dead, the variables have passed, and now we just need to wait until tomorrow to have Chu Danqing intercept the opportunity ahead of time.

What do the fates of the others have to do with Yang Qianyuan?
