After the main character who took the blame retired, the female lead quit.

Wait! The Nascent Soul Realm.

"Wait a minute, since a Nascent Soul cultivator has come to you for divination, why don't you just write them a letter asking for help?"

Unfortunately, Bu Suantian simply tilted his head and said with a sigh, "Actually, I don't know why, but recently my divination has been a bit inaccurate."

"Inaccurate? Then your calculation just now was quite accurate, wasn't it?"

It wasn't just accurate! It almost revealed everything about him.

Li Yunshang had gone to great lengths and whipped the child several times to learn his real name, but she could figure it out with a simple calculation.

“Your situation is special. Your destiny is closely connected to mine. I can calculate a lot of things through myself, let alone in front of you. Moreover, things that have already happened are fixed, unlike future divination which is easy to calculate.”

She sighed, speaking rapidly: "It's not that the result is inaccurate, it's just that the process was off. A few days ago, I did a divination for the master of Pinglei Mountain. The divination indicated that he should have smoothly passed the tribulation, but during the tribulation, because his dodging posture was too graceful, he sprained his back and was struck down, leaving him partially paralyzed. He successfully passed the tribulation, but the result..."

And then there's that Wan Yun Pavilion Sect Master, who asked me to divine some opportunity that could help his newly accepted disciple build a solid foundation and enhance his strength. I divined for him that it was a medicinal herb from a certain mountain range. His disciple did indeed experience a significant increase in strength after consuming it, ranking among the top talents in the world. However, the herb's unknown effects turned him into a beautiful girl. Waaah... Now the Wan Yun Pavilion Sect Master has unilaterally blocked me. It's already a good thing he's not bothering me anymore.

Another woman named Lady Jin asked me when her husband would return from exploring the secret realm. I gave him a divination result that he would return in three days. He did return, but he was a corpse covered with a white sheet. Fortunately, his nascent soul had not dissipated, and in the end, we spent a lot of money to buy a Nine-Turn Life-Extending Pill to save him.

"And another thing, someone asked me to divine whether Ye Feng, an inner disciple of the Xuanling Sect, would be resurrected. The divination I gave him said to wait a while, but it seems he is indeed alive, but it was you in disguise..."

Bu Suantian gave Xiao Yu a whole bunch of pitiful examples, but the last one sounded like utter nonsense.

Xiao Yu noticed something: these people's divination results were correct, but the process was indeed not quite right, just as she had said.

Having apparently gotten carried away with talking, Bu Suantian began to pour out his troubles to Xiao Yu:

"You see, because of these reasons, although my predictions are extremely accurate, recently, for some reason, people who come to me for fortune telling are very unlucky. I did a fortune telling for myself and found that I am currently experiencing a period of bad luck and will soon suffer a bloody disaster. Good things that come my way will turn into bad things. I am like a jinx descending to earth. Naturally, those Nascent Soul Realm experts are unwilling to have any contact with me."

I even suspect that this near-death experience was probably caused by angering a Nascent Soul cultivator who had been affected by my bad luck. Actually, thinking about it, dying like this doesn't seem so wrong.

Anyway, I'm just an unknown savage living deep in the mountains. Besides the animals, I don't have any friends. I barely speak a few words a day. Now that the news of me being a jinx has spread, I guess no one will want to consult me ​​for divination anymore. Without a source of income, I'm going to die sooner or later anyway. Dying sooner or later is still dying. Being killed by a great cultivator would at least be a more glorious death..."

As if a valve had been opened, Bu Suantian began to pour out his grievances to Xiao Yu, pouring out his troubles.

Under the influence of endless negative emotions, Xiao Yu felt that he was about to be infected and return to the lazy state he had been in at the beginning, lying on the table.

Is it really necessary to be so pessimistic?

Suddenly, Xiao Yu seemed to realize something, and taking advantage of the moment when Bu Suantian paused to catch his breath, he managed to interject:

When did your bad luck start?

"Why are you asking this? It seems to be about what happened after Ye Feng died, sob sob sob... I wonder if anyone will hold a funeral for me after I die."

The divination was done and the sky was crying.

However, Xiao Yu's expression, hidden beneath the fake face, gradually became more subtle.

Strictly speaking, it seems that Bu Suantian's current situation of being unloved by his uncle and grandmother is his fault.

Chapter Thirty-Eight, Please, I'll do anything.

Xiao Yu was not very clear about the other people Bu Suantian mentioned.

However, he did know a little about the mountain master of Pinglei Mountain mentioned at the beginning of the divination. It seemed that if the plot continued to unfold, the protagonist would find a top-tier lightning-attribute magic weapon at a small stall, thanks to his unique insight.

Unfortunately, he couldn't use it himself, so he took it to Wanbaoge for auction. Afterwards, he obtained a large sum of spirit stones and bought a Phoenix Blood Spirit Fruit to enhance his strength.

It seems that it was bought by an elder from Pinglei Mountain at the auction.

Just then, it was the time for the Lord of Pinglei Mountain to undergo his tribulation. It must have been that elder who contributed this lightning-avoiding artifact, which allowed the Lord of Pinglei Mountain to safely pass through the tribulation.

This was precisely the result of divination.

But now...

Because of his irresistible charm, the protagonist Ye Feng was mistaken for an imposter and stabbed to death by Li Yunshang. Naturally, the lightning-avoiding artifact was ignored and was displayed on the stall by the stall owner as an inconspicuous item.

This item would not appear at the auction, and the elders of Pinglei Mountain would not buy it and offer it to the mountain lord of Pinglei Mountain so that he could safely pass through the tribulation.

In short, the divination results were correct, but some minor accidents occurred because the main character did not appear.

The people behind them were probably also a result of the butterfly effect caused by the absence of the main character.

Sure enough, although the general plot remained the same, the storyline had begun to gradually deviate.

Xiao Yu pinched the bridge of his nose. If this continued, wouldn't the Demon Gathering Island, which would never have appeared in the cultivation world's view in the first place, also appear in the public eye due to some kind of butterfly effect?

This is really bad!

Meanwhile, Bu Suantian, having complained endlessly until his mouth was dry, was now sipping the tea on the table.

She held the cup in both hands, opened her cherry-like, moist mouth, and stuck out a pink little tongue. Her tongue curved, bringing some water from the cup into her mouth, making her look like an adorable kitten licking water.

What's with this strange way of drinking water?

Xiao Yu quickly realized that Bu Suantian was raised by some animals. Although she was naturally intelligent and knew everything from birth, some of her habits were still different from those of humans.

"You...you're looking at me, what...what are you doing? What's wrong?"

It was probably because Xiao Yu's gaze was too intense that the sensitive girl cast a timid look at him.

Xiao Yu withdrew his gaze, his mind preoccupied with matters concerning Demon Gathering Island, and casually remarked:

"Nothing's wrong. You seem pretty cute, so what are you planning to do next?"

"So...cute...um." Bu Suantian blushed slightly, a little shy, but after hearing Xiao Yu's question, she thought for a moment and solemnly replied:

"Anyway, after complaining to you for a long time, I feel much better. Although you sound like a pervert according to rumors, it seems like you're a good person now."

I've decided to follow you for now. After all, even at the Embracing Simplicity Realm, you're still stronger than me. And as the benefactor who could save me from my death calamity, it's better for you to stay by my side than to stay at home and be sneaked up on, dying unnoticed and forgotten.

This……

Xiao Yu, who had been given the "friend zone" card, was slightly speechless. He felt that even if he said no, this little dumpling would still stick to him.

Seriously, if you're the female lead, you should go find the main character!

Oh...right, the main character died.

Xiao Yu fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, the system's voice sounded in my mind:

"Request from the female protagonist, Bu Suantian, has been detected. Task generated."

Faced with the possibility that Bu Suantian could be killed by a powerful cultivator at any moment, how could you, as the protagonist, sit idly by?

Mission: Grant the request of the fortune teller and help her avert her death.

Rewards: 10000 points, Eight Treasures Spirit Compass, and Heavenly Eye.

Failure penalty: None.

Note: This is a long-term task; rewards will only be given upon successful completion. A friendly reminder: after killing Bu Suantian, that Nascent Soul realm cultivator might target you again.

As expected, that damn system popped up again.

"But why are they targeting me?" Xiao Yu asked, puzzled. He should have no grudge against that great cultivator. Killing Bu Suantian would have been enough; why did he have to kill him too?

"Because the host's fate is closely connected with the divination master, to be precise, that great cultivator's original goal was to kill you and the divination master, but in a different order. He wanted to kill the divination master first, but she discovered it through divination."

"........."

Having suddenly gained an enemy at the Nascent Soul Realm, Xiao Yu really didn't know what to say. He looked at Bu Suantian, who was sitting obediently opposite him.

"However, since you can tell fortunes, you should be able to figure out who the powerful cultivator who is chasing you is, right?"

Since it involved his own safety, Xiao Yu needed to ask clearly.

"No, all I know is that he's at the Nascent Soul stage and a sword cultivator by nature. I don't know much else about him, but it's certain that he won't be coming out anytime soon."

A natal swordsman... is still the most lethal among cultivators.

Xiao Yu felt a slight ache in his groin.

This is truly unbeatable. How many Nascent Soul Realm cultivators are there in the world now? They are all sect leaders or similar types.

A hint of retreat flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes.

How about we quietly escape back to Guiding Demon Island?

In any case, to enter or leave Demon Gathering Island, one needs to resist the erosion of alien Dao traces. The higher one's cultivation level, the more erosion occurs, and the greater the resistance becomes.

There's nothing to do on Demon Gathering Island, provided that Demon Gathering Island isn't exposed to the forbidden sea area due to any unforeseen circumstances.

Bu Suantian, with her sharp eyes, instantly caught the hint of retreat in Xiao Yu's eyes. Her expression turned aggrieved, and she looked at Xiao Yu with helpless eyes:

"Of course... I won't let you work for nothing. There will be a reward. I just did a little divination and found that you want to resurrect someone, but their soul is already incomplete. Like Lady Jin Si, the Nine-Turn Life-Extending Pill won't work. This requires a special spiritual object. I can help you find out where it is first. You can take a look before making a decision. Don't think about refusing yet."

Waaaaah... I don't want to die yet, my precious youth hasn't even begun.

Seemingly afraid that Xiao Yu would not agree, Bu Suantian hurriedly added, as if afraid that Xiao Yu would leave her behind.

This……

Xiao Yu hesitated. The spirit that could revive people was quite accurate in its divination. Although the journey home was somewhat tortuous, the result was definitely correct.

"You are my only hope. Actually, I had already asked many people before I came, but as soon as they heard that I was a Nascent Soul cultivator, they all turned me away. I can only rely on you. Please, I will do anything."

Looking at Bu Suantian's pitiful little face, especially his teary eyes, Xiao Yu didn't know what to say. He sighed.

"Alright, but first, tell me where this spirit that can revive people is?"

Xiao Yu agreed, but not only for the sake of Bu Suantian, but also for his own sake. In his view, the reason why this happened was simply because the protagonist died and the plot began to deviate.

Now that the divination master can predict the spiritual object that can revive the protagonist, Xiao Yu should go find it and use it to revive the protagonist.

Once the protagonist survives, the plot will get back on track, and the powerful cultivator who wanted to kill him and Bu Suantian because of the plot deviation may disappear.

It just so happens that Xiao Yu needs to revive the protagonist to ensure he can enjoy a leisurely retirement on Jumo Island, killing two birds with one stone.

"Um, wait a minute."

This time, Bu Suantian closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and looked much more serious and earnest than before.

Xiao Yu waited for quite a while.

"There is."

Bu Suantian opened her clear, light blue eyes and pushed the landscape gazette on the table in front of Xiao Yu.
