……
A few minutes later.
The group that reached the summit were astonished to find that the blizzard on Luotian Mountain had suddenly vanished without a trace.
The mountaintop should be the coldest place, but it is strangely quiet and windless, let alone snowflakes falling.
Ye Yuchan looked back and found that the mountainside of Luotian Mountain was still being eroded by the blizzard, but the mountaintop was free of any snowfall.
The mountaintop actually looks more like a small plain, covered with snow, but only a few scattered points of white light fall on the plain.
Right in the middle of that plain, there was a dark gray well.
The well opening is round, and a wooden bucket is placed next to it; nothing seems amiss.
No, the very fact that this well would appear here all alone is very strange.
Yunping first scanned the area, then closed his eyes, and then opened them again, saying calmly, "Don't worry, there are no meaningful ambushes around here, and there are no magic arrays at the well."
“Even if it exists, I can solve it,” Tai Baiqiu quietly interjected.
Yun Ping didn't bother to pay attention to the confident statement of this formation master. Instead, he led Ye Yuchan and the others to the front of the Yantianjing with slightly heavy steps.
Ye Yuchan stood curiously by the well and looked down.
The clear water reflected Ye Yuchan's rather delicate face. She looked at it carefully but couldn't find anything strange.
"You old scoundrel, why can't I see anything?"
Yunping sat on the edge of the well and said calmly, "Try using this bucket to draw a bucket of water."
"Oh oh."
Ye Yuchan immediately pulled her head back, then threaded the rope through a hole in the edge of the wooden bucket, tied a knot, and then threw the bucket into the water.
The wooden bucket swayed on the water twice, and then it was more than half full. Ye Yuchan felt that this should be enough, so she picked it up.
As soon as Ye Yuchan lifted it, she sensed that something was wrong.
The bucket floated on the water's surface. What Ye Yuchan thought would be easy to lift suddenly became incredibly heavy, forcing her to circulate her spiritual energy and use her cultivation technique to barely manage to lift the bucket full of water.
"Why has this wooden barrel suddenly become so heavy?"
Ye Yuchan felt that she had used all her strength to lift the wooden bucket to her.
Yunping didn't seem to care, having seen this situation several times before: "The heavy thing isn't the wooden bucket itself; it's very light. The heavy thing is the water inside."
Jiang Shaoguang narrowed his eyes: "This water doesn't seem to be anything special."
“The water itself is not special; what’s special is this well.” Yunping glanced at the calm surface of the water and smiled. “Even if it’s not water, most liquids in the world, once poured into this well, will turn back into the water of the Yantian Well. It is precisely because this water comes from the Yantian Well that it is so heavy.”
"That sounds rather mystical."
Ye Yuchan muttered something to herself, then asked, "That old rogue, how does he interpret his own fate?"
"This is the water you fetched. Only you can see it. You can tell by looking at the water in the bucket."
"That simple?"
Ye Yuchan thought there would be some high-end, sophisticated operation, but she didn't expect that all she had to do was look at the water she had fetched.
Filled with a mix of unease and excitement, Ye Yuchan, quite interested in her future, slowly leaned forward, her gaze falling on the calm surface of the water in the bucket.
What will my future be like?
What if, at first glance, I see myself standing in a courtyard with that old rogue, holding several babies in my arms, with some cute little girls and boys around me constantly calling "Daddy, Mommy~"?
Hehehe...
Ye Yuchan, her mind automatically conjuring up some very beautiful scenes, looked at the water with excitement.
Then came a period of silence.
Ye Yuchan's expression changed one after another, first excitement, then doubt, then surprise and excitement, and finally her expression dimmed.
A series of emotional shifts made it impossible for anyone to guess what Ye Yuchan had actually seen.
"Hmm... I've finished reading it."
A few seconds later, Ye Yuchan took two steps back with a somewhat complicated expression.
It was at this moment that everyone was surprised to find that the water in the wooden bucket had suddenly disappeared, as if it had never been retrieved.
In response, Yunping explained, "Only those who personally scoop up the water from the Yantian Well can glimpse their own destiny, and once they have glimpsed it, they can no longer glimpse it."
Jiang Shaoguang understood: "So, in your life, you can only see it once?"
Yunping nodded, neither denying it.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xingzhuo and Jiang Shaoguang both looked at Ye Yuchan with curiosity, whose face was full of complicated emotions. The latter asked, "Junior Sister Yuchan, what...did you just see?"
Faced with Jiang Shaoguang's question, Ye Yuchan hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Well, I think I saw what I would look like when I become a saint. It's pretty majestic, standing on the head of God laughing heartily."
"Then there was Ruoxue below, looking completely bewildered. To be honest, she looked a little silly to me."
Jiang Shaoguang raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "It must be Junior Sister Yu Chan, who has just passed the Saint Transcending stage, being arrogant in front of Junior Sister Ruoxue..."
Ye Yuchan's lips twitched: "It seems so, but it looks really silly..."
"Regardless, this also indicates that Junior Sister Yu Chan will be on her way to Sainthood, which is a good thing," Gu Xingzhuo advised.
Yunping narrowed his eyes, then changed the subject: "Alright, who's next?"
"I'll do it."
Jiang Shaoguang took a step forward.
He followed Ye Yuchan's example and drew some well water from the courtyard. Just as Ye Yuchan had said, the well water was indeed very heavy, almost forcing him to unleash all his spiritual energy before he could pull the bucket up.
Jiang Shaoguang took a deep breath, then stepped forward with an expectant yet complicated expression, gazing at the scene in the wooden tub.
Jiang Shaoguang's expression remained unchanged, and no one could tell what he had actually seen in the well water.
Only Jiang Shaoguang himself knew.

He stared at the well water in front of him, which had suddenly turned completely black for some reason, his expression somewhat somber.
After waiting for a long time, nothing appeared in the well water.
Could it be that I'm doing something wrong?
No, I clearly did exactly what Ye Yuchan did, so why can't I see anything but this strange darkness?
Pitch black?
In an instant, Jiang Shaoguang seemed to realize something.
It turned out to be the case.
A hint of joy and relief gradually appeared on his face, but then that joy vanished completely.
"I've finished reading it."
Ye Yuchan glanced at Jiang Shaoguang and asked curiously, "Third Senior Brother, what did you see?"
"Um……"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shaoguang remained silent for a few seconds.
Then she suddenly broke into a smile.
“These are some great things. I even saw Luo Kui in them.”
"Junior Sister Luo Kui is back?" Ye Yuchan asked in surprise.
"Ah."
Jiang Shaoguang nodded: "We've returned unharmed."
16. The Secret of the Courtyard
Jiang Shaoguang's response was met with no doubt from anyone—except for the old rogue.
He stared at Jiang Shaoguang for a while, then, as if he understood something, he grinned strangely and suddenly fell silent again.
Jiang Shaoguang naturally didn't notice the change in Yun Ping's expression. He just smiled foolishly and then turned his gaze to the last person.
"Fourth brother, why don't you give it a try?"
"it is good."
Gu Xingzhuo glanced at the bucket, whose water had also vanished without a trace, and sighed inwardly at its wonder. He then took a few steps forward, came to the Yantian Well, and threw the bucket into it.
As expected, lifting the bucket was quite difficult. In addition, Gu Xingzhuo was not a body cultivator, so his physical strength was naturally weak. He almost failed to pull the bucket full of water from the Yantian Well up.
"Phew—" Gu Xingzhuo let out a long breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead, took two steps forward, and focused his gaze on the bucket of water.
After a few seconds of silence, Gu Xingzhu blinked blankly, seemingly not quite understanding why he had witnessed that scene.
In the silence, the water in the bucket disappeared again, while Gu Xingzhuo still looked somewhat bewildered.
Seeing this, Ye Yuchan immediately asked with great curiosity, "Hey, senior brother, what did you see? Why do you look so strange?"
"Hmm..." Gu Xingzhuo's expression was somewhat complicated: "How should I put it, I saw him selling paintings on the street, and he seemed to be quite poor."
Ye Yuchan raised an eyebrow: "Fourth Senior Brother, did Second Senior Brother borrow your money to gamble?"
Gu Xingzhuo nodded seriously: "Very likely, otherwise I wouldn't be so poor that I have to sell paintings to make a living."
The three disciples have already glimpsed their own future destinies, and logically, it should be the old rogue's turn next.
Recalling the visions of the future she had previously imagined, Ye Yuchan blushed slightly, coughed twice, glanced at Yun Ping somewhat embarrassedly, and said softly, "Hey, you old rogue, why don't you give it a try?"
“Me?” Yunping pointed to himself, then looked down at the mirror-like surface of the Yantian Well, and chuckled softly: “I saw it once when I came here last time. This Yantian Well is something you can only see once in your life.”
"I see. So what did you see last time?"
"I didn't see anything."
Jiang Shaoguang was somewhat stunned.
Yun Ping looked at Jiang Shaoguang meaningfully and said in a deep voice, "Maybe I was also a dying man at that time, so what I saw was nothing but darkness. Besides that, I could only see those two ancestors who disappeared in a flash. They were the two ancestors who personally sent me to my funeral."
"Seeing darkness is the same as witnessing death... What a strange setting," Ye Yuchan muttered to herself.
