The two greeted each other, and then Lin Ye turned around from his desk and said with a smile, "No need for formalities... Long Yin, you can go back now."

"Yes, Master." Long Yin took his leave with some curiosity.

Lin Ye smiled and said, "Disciple, your master is not taking your things, I'm just curious."

"What was that bamboo container with the divination sticks that day?"

Upon hearing this, Bu Suanzi's heart skipped a beat.

Chapter 431 The Little Fairy Who Seeks Advantage and Avoids Harm

Bu Suanzi was in an awkward situation.

Her fortune-telling box peeked out from the hem of her blue dress, trembling violently, but it just wouldn't release any fortune sticks.

Lin Ye revealed a mischievous smile: "My good disciple, you are not worthy of being your teacher."

Lin Ye beckoned, and when Bu Suanzi tremblingly stepped forward, he extended his hand.

I tried it out and actually touched the fortune-telling box.

To be precise, it wasn't a touch, but rather the box actively escaping in the opposite direction of his fingertips!

Lin Ye's eyes lit up.

This thing is indeed extraordinary; could it have sensed the presence of the Emperor's blood?

Or perhaps he only vaguely sensed Lin Ye's extraordinary nature; in any case, it was the first time he had ever seen someone else possess a treasure with such expressive power.

Lin Ye pushed the fortune-telling box back into his clothes with two fingers, and his fingertips inevitably sank into the softness.

"Um...?"

Although his little apprentice was the third in line, she was much more mature than Xiao Xuanling and Xu Sanjiu, and had a very shapely figure.

Lin Ye didn't think much of it and wasn't very interested in Foundation Establishment kids, especially those with good aptitude.

He then withdrew his hand.

Bu Suanzi shuddered again; she had just thought her master was going to forcibly pull the divination box out!

She couldn't even touch the fortune-telling box herself; if she reached out to grab it, she would only pass right through it.

I don't know how my master met him, but his background is so impressive that even immortals would have to kneel before him.

If the divination box is pulled out, will I die?

She was momentarily stunned, and at that moment, Lin Ye had already straightened her clothes.

"Come, sit down."

Bu Suanzi nodded slightly and sat down cautiously opposite him.

Lin Ye brewed the tea at a leisurely pace, and wisps of mist rose from the spiritual spring water used for brewing.

He was thinking about how to make good use of this fortune-telling box.

Good steel is used on the blade.

This treasure is likely to be more useful in larger events.

Actually, Lin Ye should have been the one to use it.

Jie Jie Jie...

However, once I said I wouldn't steal, I meant it.

They still haven't figured out how Bu Suanzi died in his previous life.

Although Lin Ye had other speculations, the possibility that the fortune-telling box was actually a time bomb that killed its owner could not be ruled out.

It's the same thing to use it on an apprentice anyway.

If you keep her by your side when you're doing things, the fortune-telling box might be able to predict the options related to the things Lin Ye needs to do, which makes perfect sense.

Smelling the aromatherapy in the room, Bu Suanzi felt much calmer, and her violent heartbeat returned to normal.

But perhaps because the cool, refreshing energy from the aromatherapy was still churning in her chest, her heart remained icy cold.

With their cheat codes exposed, it's impossible not to panic!

But she noticed that her master's cave dwelling was not usually lit with this kind of incense.

The incense suitable for her master's cultivation level is too much for her, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, and the kind she's currently burning is ineffective for her master.

It was clearly a special instruction from her master to keep her calm.

Then I'll calm down!

Bu Suanzi took a deep breath and quickly calmed down, which earned him Lin Ye's high regard.

It's also possible that they've given up the struggle.

You must listen to your master...

Perhaps there's still a chance...

"Master."

Bu Suanzi revealed a resolute look in his eyes, "I am willing to contribute this divination box to the cause of fighting the blood disaster!"

Lin Ye had already started to smile.

This girl wasn't stupid. As early as when she first saw Lin Ye from afar, she had already started preparing an emergency plan for the discovery of the lottery box.

Nothing more than surrendering by showing your belly!

This way, the chances of survival are maximized.

Considering that Lin Ye has a fairly positive reputation apart from his lecherous nature, she might receive generous compensation for offering this fortune box. A little bit of it between the Demon Emperor's fingers would be enough for her to be satisfied.

The only problem is that the fortune teller doesn't know how to break free from the binding with the divination box.

If all we can do is kill the goose that lays the golden eggs... haha, goodbye cultivation world!

Unfortunately, there was no other way, so they had to surrender as planned.

Bu Suanzi certainly wouldn't be so wary of revealing his secrets to other Nascent Soul cultivators, including his mentor Kaiyangzi who guided him into cultivation.

How could an ordinary cultivator possibly see through their own precious fortune-telling box!

It can predict the secrets of heaven and encompass everything.

No matter what level of cultivator it appears before, no one has ever been able to see the true form of the divination box.

She could even predict the course of a great calamity. If her prediction is correct, the divination box must contain a treasure related to immortals!

The fortune teller had just confirmed that his master couldn't see the fortune box, which put him at ease, but it turned out that he couldn't see it after all.

In front of his master, the divination box seemed utterly insignificant as a secret...

Were they waiting for me to ask the question before they asked?

The master did not reply.

Bu Suanzi slightly raised his eyes, awaiting his fate, like a trembling hamster.

......

"Human, what do you plan to do with this kid?" the Crimson Emperor couldn't help but ask.

'That precious thing you mentioned...you're not going to give it up, are you?'

Lin Ye shook his head slightly. 'She is, after all, my personal disciple.'

The Crimson Emperor said, "I see. Then tell the truth."

'To be honest, I'm worried there's something wrong with this fortune-telling box.'

Have you heard of this?

The Crimson Emperor said, "I've heard of similar things! But I've never seen anything like this. From your description, this object can deduce heavenly secrets without even needing to be tainted by the cause and effect of this world."

Lin Ye frowned slightly.

This fortune box is clearly very powerful.

However, Bu Suanzi's story backfired in history.

Along with Kaiyangzi, the master and his disciples were all killed. What happened?

Now that he has become her master, he will do his best to help her avoid any calamities she cannot handle.

Then we need to study the fortune-telling box more carefully.

.......

For the next few days, Lin Ye and his little apprentice were inseparable.

They repeatedly tested the effectiveness of the fortune-telling box.

Bu Suanzi followed Lin Ye so closely that even the mistresses might be envious, which made her a little scared.

In the Eastern Divine Continent, the relationship between direct disciples and their masters is so close that it's almost exaggerated.

In some factions, the legitimate heirs are even more likely to inherit the throne than the direct descendants!

The reason is quite practical: because it greatly depletes one's vital energy and essence, many cultivators do not reproduce.

Even if they give birth, they may not be able to produce offspring with exceptional talent.

However, most of the selected disciples are exceptionally talented.

Disciples are generally more skilled than their offspring!

In this dog-eat-dog world of cultivation, incidents of masters and disciples vying for family property are countless...

To put the minds of his offspring and disciples at ease,

In some factions within the cultivation world, the first right of succession is simply assigned to their personal disciples.

As for the order of succession among direct disciples, it is generally based on the sect's rules, either according to the order of entry, the order of cultivation level, or direct designation by the master.

However, aristocratic families, immortal dynasties, and cultivators with exotic beast bloodlines generally place more emphasis on bloodlines—even so, personal disciples still maintain a very close relationship.

However, one can imagine how terrifying it would be if such a cheat code were exposed to the public.

"Master, I'm sorry, the fortune box hasn't produced any useful fortune slips yet."

"It doesn't matter."

"It can't be rushed."

In the afternoon, looking at the flustered girl in front of him, Lin Ye sighed inwardly.

He was just like that when he was young.

If the secret of reverse reincarnation were to be leaked, one could only imagine some ominous scenarios.

The girl's situation was more dangerous, since the fortune-telling box was a physical object, and even its inherent ability to conceal itself had been seen through.

This isn't something that can be killed and stolen in a heartbeat!

But Lin Ye deliberately didn't snatch it.

If someone survives after their cheat ability is exposed, they usually treat the person who discovered it as an enemy boss.

However, there are exceptions. For example, Lin Ye has a good reputation and a good foundation of goodwill, and he treats her well.

Human hearts are made of flesh and blood, and the apprentice's thinking will definitely tend in a positive direction.

......

Live another day!

That evening, Bu Suanzi returned to her room, her heart still pounding.

My master is a giant, and not everyone has the opportunity to become a pawn of a giant.

However, this is also very dangerous.

She looked at Long Yin, who was reading, and asked, "Sister, did you ask Master about the thing you said you wanted to ask before?"

Long Yin was taken aback and said, "The matter of ascending to immortality across the entire realm? Didn't you ask your uncle?"

"Not yet, sister, go ahead, but there's no rush."

“Alright.” Long Yin nodded without suspicion. “When I pay my respects to my uncle tonight, I’ll ask him about the truth.”
