Qingque's gaze fell on Fu Xuan in the center of the crowd:

"Judging from the diviner's appearance, it seems he is calculating the route or the future, just like in the past..."

"But this Qiong Guan formation... seems very different. Something's not right, very not right."

Mr. Yan immediately asserted:

"She has probably been possessed by Suiyang."

Qingque looked at Yan Huan:

"Is Suiyang... the danger you're talking about?"

"I read in the book that the spirits of starlight, capable of freely transforming, enjoy manipulating the dreams and desires of mortals. Are you saying... the diviner is controlled by that kind of thing?"

"How can we wake her up?"

Huo Huo immediately said:

"Let's try this Heart-to-Heart Fire Bell. If we shake this bell so close to the Grand Diviner, we should be able to enter the illusion she shares with Suiyang."

Qingque immediately took the Heart-to-Heart Fire Bell and shook it on the spot.

"Ding Ding-"

But the Heart-to-Heart Fire Bell had only been ringing for a few seconds when Fu Xuan, standing below the Great Evolution Exhaustion Observation Formation, suddenly turned around and angrily shouted:

"quiet!"

"No noise is allowed inside the Temple!"

Seeing Fu Xuan walking towards her, Qing Que was somewhat excited:

"You're awake, Lord Fu Xuan!"

Huo Huo also looked at Fu Xuan, and said worriedly:

"...Should we call you Rhinoceros Flame from now on?"

Fu Xuan stood in front of the crowd, one hand on his hip, and said aggressively:

"It doesn't matter how you address me. Whether you call me Fu Xuan or Xi Yan, I am the only master of this Taibu Si."

"The divination work is currently at a crucial juncture and cannot be disrupted by others."

"Even judges from the Ten Kings Division and passengers of the Starry Sky Train are not allowed to act recklessly here!"

Yan's eyes widened immediately:

"Wow, I can actually understand Fu Xuan's words! Is she finally not a riddle-maker anymore?!"

Fu Xuan ignored Yan Huan's words and instead focused his gaze on Qing Que, who was standing in the middle of the group, and shouted:

"Qingque, it's you again!"

Chapter 496 Someone's slacking off, but I won't say who.

"It's you again who brought these outsiders into the department! You've completely ignored all the rules I've set for you! Are you trying to rebel?!"

Fu Xuan grew increasingly furious, and under Qing Que's tense expression, he directly declared:

"Qingque, you're fired!"

"what……?"

Qingque's eyes widened.

"I……?"

"This...this is also..."

Seeing Qingque lower her head, Su Chang looked at Fu Xuan, filled with grief:

"Damn it...we've lost one of our men in no time!"

But the next moment, Qingque's voice suddenly rose: "...This is amazing!"

Su Shang: "..."

Qingque laughed excitedly:

"Hehe, I also feel that it's improper of me to idle around all day, drawing a salary from the tax collector while playing cards, it's really a bit..."

"How did you say that?"

"Are you having too much fun?!" Yan Huan reminded her.

"I think so too!" Gui Naifen said enviously, "I've always dreamed of living a life like that!"

Qingque smiled slightly:

"It's a waste of life."

She looked at Fu Xuan gratefully:

"Thank you for giving me a push, Lord Taibu. Since you also feel that I shouldn't stay here and waste my talents, I should think of ways to make some changes!"

"But before I leave, I have to help these people solve the current troubles facing the Taipusi. Otherwise, people will think that I was dismissed because I deserted my post, and that won't sound good."

Qingque turned around and gave an awkward smile:

"So, what should we do next?"

"Hehe, I was so busy putting on an act that I didn't know how to get the diviner out of his demonic possession."

Huo Huo shook her head, utterly bewildered at this moment:

"I don't know either. It seems that Suiyang doesn't intend to trap us with the illusion, nor does it seem to want to attack us..."

"Possessed by demonic possession?" Fu Xuan stood before them, arms crossed, and said calmly:

"I am very clear-headed, or rather, I have never been so clear-headed!"

"From this moment forward, I will dedicate myself to predicting the inevitable future of the Immortal Ship Alliance and proclaiming this future to the world, so that everyone can live with complete clarity!"

Mr. Yan immediately said with disdain:

"You're being very irrational by saying that."

Fu Xuan snorted coldly:

"I know what you're trying to say: Man can conquer nature? Free will? But these are just simple illusions created by the human brain."

"From the very beginning, there was only one road."

Yan nodded slightly:

"There are countless roads, but safety is the first priority..."

Before Yan Huan could finish speaking, Fu Xuan continued with disdain:

"And you, Yan Huan, you're nothing but a pawn manipulated by the Star Core Hunters."

"Boarding the train, who will be our enemy, and where will we go..."

"These choices that you think you can make based on your own will are merely tributaries that will eventually converge on the path of destiny."

"You must have a deep understanding of this journey to help Xianzhou defeat Huanlong, right? All the outcomes were already written into a script by that slave hidden behind the scenes."

Fu Xuan stood with his arms crossed, utterly calm:

"Right now, all your options are just these few: [swing your bat and charge at me], [loudly but futilely refute me], or [fall silent].

Qingque quickly looked at Yan Huan:

"Hey, don't let her guess right, there are always other options!"

"..."

Yan Huan silently looked at the selection box that appeared in front of her:

[Swinging a baseball bat, he charged towards Fu Xuan]

[Loudly but futilely refuting Fu Xuan]

[Falling into silence without saying a word]

"..."

"What kind of cerebral palsy is this?!"

Yan Huan reached out and slapped away the strange object in front of her, saying disdainfully:

"Is it possible that I am part of the Star Core Hunters?"

What's wrong with helping your own family members?

Fu Xuan said disdainfully:

"Those insignificant choices just now could not change the inevitable fate."

"If you're still not convinced, I can demonstrate to you what destiny truly means, in a way that your human mind can comprehend!"

"Come on, I'm all in!"

"Then come with me!"

The group followed Fu Xuan and left the Dayan Qiongguan Formation, arriving at a secluded place.

Huo Huo looked around, puzzled:

"here it is……?"

Qingque explained to everyone:

"This is the Taipusi... We call it the 'Pathfinding Sand Table,' a game that the members of the department use specifically to deduce ideas and exercise their minds."

"What is the purpose of the diviner bringing us here...?"

Yan Huan looked at Fu Xuan and said incredulously:

"You want to play this game with me?"

Fu Xuan crossed his arms, exuding confidence:
