After successfully tricking a few more customers seeking divination, Qingque stretched out her body in a relaxed manner and began to mentally calculate how Fu Xuan would come to find her...
Not long after, Qingque's jade omen suddenly vibrated without any warning, which was the program's prompt that Fu Xuan was approaching...
So, after a while, Fu Xuan finally appeared in Qingque's sight.
She was still wearing that elegant white and purple dress, walking steadily and looking radiant.
When she walked to Qingque's fortune-telling stall, she stopped.
Qingque glanced at Fu Xuan at the right moment, then stood up and said to the customer sitting opposite her asking for divination:
"I'm so sorry, sir!"
"An old friend is here to see me. Please wait for me for a moment..."
The customer was naturally willing to help others, so he nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, Qingque stood up from behind the fortune-telling stall, walked gently to Fu Xuan, pointed to a secluded place nearby and said:
"Let's talk over there, it's quieter there..."
Fu Xuan nodded silently when he heard this, and walked towards the corner side by side with Qingque.
After the two of them stood in the corner, Fu Xuan turned to face Qingque and said:
"This is probably... our second official meeting, right?"
"Well... yes, it's the second time." Qingque smiled slightly.
"You don't seem surprised that I came here today?" Fu Xuan tilted his head slightly and asked Qingque.
"After I sent you that email, I roughly guessed that you, Master Fu Xuan, would definitely come to see me."
"Whether it's coming to inquire in detail about the whole story of the company's incident..."
"Or... come and persuade me to go back..."
Fu Xuan noticed Qingque's indifference, but he was not angry, because anyone who had experienced such a thing would have some resentment towards Taibusi in his heart.
So Fu Xuan continued nonchalantly:
"In that case... then I'd better ask a question first..."
"Qingque, if I say that you will be under my command when you return to Taipusi..."
"In that case, would you be willing to come back?..." Fu Xuan looked into Qingque's eyes and asked softly.
"No! As long as Lingyun exists in Taibusi, there is no possibility for me to go back!" Qingque answered firmly.
Hearing this, Fu Xuan's gaze paused slightly, and then a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
She hesitated for a moment, then said in a low but sincere tone:
"Qingque, I can understand the resentment in your heart!"
"Lingyun is indeed a stubborn problem that is difficult to eradicate within the Taibu Division, but things always need to be solved step by step!"
"She's been operating within the Taipusi for many years and wields considerable influence. Even if we want to take action against her, we'll need both timing and evidence..."
But before Fu Xuan could finish, she was interrupted by a burst of crisp laughter:
"Hahaha......!"
Qingque's laughter echoed in the silent corner, as if full of disdain for Fu Xuan's excuses:
"You are in me, and I am in you. This is where the Taipusi situation goes wrong!..."
Fu Xuan frowned slightly when he heard this and asked in a deep voice:
"Then what do you mean-?"
"What I mean is very simple." Qingque's tone was calm but powerful.
"Master Fu Xuan, if you really want me to return to the Taibu Division, you must first settle Lingyun's sins!" Qingque's eyes suddenly became as sharp as a knife:
"Don't tell me I need to prepare!"
"Master Fu Xuan! Since you have come to me, it means that you have made up your mind to do something!"
"Otherwise! Why are you wasting your time here with me?..." Fu Xuan paused slightly, his heart filled with hesitation:
"No, at this time we must take it step by step. Trying to achieve success in one fell swoop is really..."
Qingque shook his head slightly upon hearing this, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes:
"That's right, Master Fu Xuan! Objectively speaking, you are indeed not prepared!"
"But the question is, is Lingyun ready?..."

Chapter 49 It is beyond the reach of all wisdom and cannot be controlled by magic!
Hearing this, Fu Xuan was speechless and remained silent for a moment.
However, Qingque on the side seemed not to notice Fu Xuan's strange expression and continued to talk to himself:
"Master Fu Xuan! Do you still remember?"
"What happened when you and I first met?..." Qingque's slightly abrupt words made Fu Xuan open his eyes wide.
But before he could respond, Qingque continued to talk about the scene at that time:
"That day, you stopped me in the exam room and asked me a question..."
"And, after I answered, you pointed out my flaws..."
"To this day, I still feel deeply resentful..."
Then, Qingque changed the subject and looked directly into Fu Xuan's eyes:
"In that case! Then I might as well return the favor today!"
"Could you also point out what I think is a small mistake made by Master Fu Xuan?..."
"I don't know, Master Fu Xuan, would you be willing to listen to it?"
Fu Xuan raised his head in surprise when he heard this, and a hint of unfathomable emotion flashed across his eyes.
But Fu Xuan didn't hold himself up to his status and criticize Qingque for being rude. Instead, he used a look of agreement to signal Qingque to continue speaking...
After receiving Fu Xuan's permission, Qingque smiled softly, and his subsequent words were filled with a hint of deep meaning:
"Master Fu Xuan! I myself am destined to be an intellectual."
"But I don't protect my shortcomings!"
"I sincerely feel that what intelligence can do is actually quite limited..."
"The struggles in this world are full of confusion and intricacies..."
"It is beyond the reach of all intellect and beyond the control of magic!"
"However, judging from your past behavior, Master Fu Xuan..."
"You always try to use your limited wisdom to win over the affairs of the world..."
“Always think about taking action after you have made all the necessary preparations!”
“Always make sure that there are no surprises in the decisions I make!”
"But isn't this a strange kind of indecision?..."
Fu Xuan, who was sitting opposite her, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly after hearing Qingque's words.
Although her expression remained normal, the deep thought that flashed across her eyes could not be concealed after all.
Originally, given Fu Xuan's years of fighting experience in the Taibu Division, she had to refute Qingque's rather rude words no matter what.
However, today Fu Xuan showed no sign of arguing.
This is because Qingque's words were not aimless, but just hit the soft spot hidden in Fu Xuan's heart.
"Indecisive..." Fu Xuan murmured the word again and again, and her thoughts were drawn back to the time when she was still studying in Yuque Fairy Boat.
She still remembered that one day she had read this sentence in the ancient books collected by Yuque:
"Kindness does not command the army, righteousness does not command wealth..."
At that time, she just glanced at it and thought to herself that it was just a famous saying commonly found in ancient books, and there was no essential difference between it and the golden words of exhortation printed in other books.
She was too young then, not realizing that the bullet she had fired would actually hit her heart many years later...
But when she actually stepped into the Taibusi and became a fortune teller who actually made decisions about life and death, she finally understood.
Many truths can only be fully understood in one's heart after being in the situation and personally experiencing those important choices and responsibilities.
During countless nights in the Taibusi, she and her colleagues repeatedly deduced and considered every detail.
She hoped that she could make the most perfect and flawless decision so that no one in Xianzhou would suffer innocent harm.
But despite this, in a certain war, she still saw that her seemingly optimal decisions inevitably brought sacrifice and death...
Every mistake, every omission of detail, all became an irreparable cost...
From then on, Fu Xuan often tossed and turned in the middle of the night, feeling a heavy weight in his heart, as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest...
She would constantly recall the words she had read in the ancient book...
Then she thought, if she became more hard-hearted in the future, would she be able to suffer less?
Perhaps, when she can stop feeling pity for every sacrifice, she will be able to make choices more quickly and decisively?
However, such thoughts are only short-term self-comfort.
No matter how Fu Xuan warned himself to let go of his pity for every life, some sacrifices were unavoidable!
But she still couldn't do it...
Whenever her divination decisions affected the fate of thousands of people, she would still pray silently in her heart:
I hope that this time, I can make the choice with the least cost, and that the sacrifices I made will not be in vain...
However, over time, she found herself becoming more and more cautious and hesitant, and almost every decision had to be carefully considered, for fear that the slightest negligence would lead to unbearable consequences.
She began to no longer believe in decisive decisions, but to rely more on careful preparation and countless deductions.
She strives for perfection in every detail of every decision, fearing that any important information might be missed or that a small mistake might lead to innocent sacrifices.
It was this over-prepared mentality that made her decision-making gradually indecisive, and she even missed the best opportunities at some critical moments...
And today, it was Qingque's seemingly rude words that allowed her to re-examine herself.
The sharpness and decisiveness shown by Qingque formed a sharp contrast with her excessive caution.
Although Qingque's decisiveness and sharpness when he made a scene in Lingyun's office were a bit too reckless, Fu Xuan also felt a little admiration for his straightforward and fearless decisiveness.
Fu Xuan suddenly realized that perhaps her temperament and Qingque's temperament were complementary!
She needs Qingque's sharpness and drive, and Qingque may also be able to learn from her caution how to consider things more carefully.
The combination of the two may be able to make up for each other's shortcomings and create unexpected miracles.
Once this idea took root in her mind, Fu Xuan suddenly felt enlightened!
What Qingque said just now actually made sense. She shouldn't delay her decision any longer just to avoid all the sacrifices...
And more importantly, she needs to make the decision that is most beneficial to Xianzhou!
Even if it means someone has to pay the price...
Chapter 50 What is the value of the Qiongguan Formation? It has no value!
Thinking of this, Fu Xuan nodded slightly. She looked directly at Qingque and said to her calmly:
