Chapter 392: Chapter 392: Past Life Connection

The elderly sage’s eyes appeared as if they could penetrate everything, countless times more powerful than his X-ray vision!

Those were eyes that could see through the void, piercing through the cosmos!

Chen Feng felt that with just a slight intent from the elderly sage, he would turn to ash under his gaze!

"He’s a good seedling, just a bit weak in strength, merely at the Yellow Rank Late Stage. Well, since he’s your chosen one, let’s cultivate him slowly!"

The elderly sage looked at Chen Feng for a while and said with a smile.

The Tianqi Holy Pearl seemed to understand the elderly sage’s words and hopped up and down twice in the air.

The elderly sage chuckled softly and then looked again at Chen Feng, drifting towards him like a spirit, floated to a stop right in front of Chen Feng, and then gently waved his right hand.

Chen Feng suddenly felt all the invisible pressure on him disappear, and he regained his freedom once more.

"My boy, you’re quite interesting, and as for your aptitude, though it can’t be considered outstanding, it’s passable. Continue your legacy as the heir of the Tianqi Holy Pearl!"

The elderly sage looked at Chen Feng and said with a smile.

"May I know the esteemed name of my senior?"

Chen Feng furrowed his brows, perplexed.

From the elderly sage’s series of actions, his power was obviously unfathomable, but he didn’t seem to be an enemy; otherwise, Chen Feng would have already turned to ash.

This made Chen Feng’s guard drop significantly.

"My identity is not something you need to concern yourself with for now. When the time comes, I will tell you myself!"

The elderly sage waved his hand, speaking indifferently.

"If that’s the case, could senior at least tell me who this fated person really is? Surely you know that the Jiang Family has been suffering greatly because of this matter!"

Chen Feng continued to question the elderly sage as he looked at him.

With the elderly sage’s strength, if he didn’t want to speak, there was nothing Chen Feng could do. It was better to help Jiang Haozhe and address the most pressing issue at hand.

As for the identity of the elderly sage and his relationship with the Tianqi Holy Pearl and so on, those would naturally become clear whenever the elderly sage chose to reveal them.

"This fated person is far on the horizon, yet near right before your eyes!"

The elderly sage looked at Chen Feng, a playful smile curling up at the corner of his mouth.

"Could it be... me?"

Chen Feng instantly made the connection, as it was clear from the elderly sage’s eyes that he was referring to Chen Feng!

"Hahaha, my boy, you’re quite astute indeed, correct, the fated person is you! On Tianqi Island, you took away the Tianqi Holy Pearl, the Tianqi Holy Pearl chose you, thus the Jiang Family’s fated person is naturally you, everything is predestined by heaven, and there’s a definite pattern to the workings of fate!"

The elderly sage laughed heartily, stroked his white beard, and said.

"What exactly does this matter of the Jiang Family have to do with me?"

Chen Feng furrowed his brows, completely puzzled as he asked.

As for what the elderly sage said, it left him utterly confused!

In the depths of his mind, Chen Feng always felt as if he had stepped into a trap that began the moment he led the Green Dragon Team onto Tianqi Island.

Accidentally obtaining the Tianqi Holy Pearl, then being besieged by numerous powers, fighting his way out of Tianqi Island alone, later being kicked out of the Azure Dragon organization, getting recognized by the Tianqi Holy Pearl, and up until now, coming to the Jiang Family for Jiang Shiqi’s sake.

Chen Feng felt that every step was premeditated by someone, and he was following their plan, under their control, experiencing all this until the appearance of this elderly sage!

This sensation was truly indescribable.

"Do you believe in past and present lives?"

The elder did not answer Chen Feng’s question but looked at him and countered with a question of his own.

"What are you really trying to say, senior?"

Chen Feng asked, puzzled.

In the past, he would never have believed such mysterious and esoteric things.

But ever since he obtained the "third eye," he believed!

So, regarding the elder’s words, he was very puzzled and somewhat confused as to why the elder would ask such a question.

Could all this have something to do with his past life?

"That young girl has some connection to your past life," the elder said, stroking his beard. "As for what the connection is, I cannot tell you just yet; the time is not right, and I must not reveal the heavens’ secrets. In any case, just treat her well, and by no means should you fail her!"

"Uh, alright!"

Chen Feng nodded somewhat speechlessly.

The elder had said so much without saying anything useful—it was as if he hadn’t said anything at all. It seemed he would have to wait and find out more later.

"Alright, I have waited for you in this state for ten years and have persisted until now. I’m nearly running on empty. Next, I need to sleep within the Tianqi Holy Pearl for a while to recover my Primordial Energy. You wouldn’t mind, would you?"

the elder asked Chen Feng with a grin.

Hearing this, Chen Feng realized that this was the elder’s true motive!

However, if the elder wanted to enter the Tianqi Holy Pearl, he would undoubtedly have to enter his body.

How could he be at ease with such a powerful old fellow inside him?

Although the elder did not seem to have any ill intentions toward him for the time being, one can never know another’s heart. What if that changes later?

This was essentially a ticking time bomb!

If it were to "explode" within him, he would truly have no chance to resist!

Thinking this, Chen Feng hesitated.

However, as Chen Feng hesitated, the Tianqi Holy Pearl seemed a bit displeased, spinning quickly around him and continuously expressing its discontent.

It seemed that if Chen Feng were to refuse, it might just disown him as its master and leave!

Seeing this, Chen Feng felt a sense of helplessness while also curious,

what exactly was the relationship between this impressive elder and the Tianqi Holy Pearl?

The Tianqi Holy Pearl was so protective of him; could it be that he was the pearl’s previous master?

But that didn’t quite seem right.

Whatever, whether it seemed right or not wasn’t something he should be worrying about now. The priority was to settle this elder first!

With no other option, Chen Feng could only nod his head and say, "Please do as you wish, senior. I have no objections!"

Upon these words, the Tianqi Holy Pearl quieted down, and the dissatisfied emotions vanished.

This made Chen Feng roll his eyes, thinking to himself: You ungrateful thing, after all the True Qi I fed you!

Naturally, the elder noticed Chen Feng’s reluctance, and with a grin, he said, "Little lad, rest assured, I won’t let you suffer for nothing. Before I go, I will bestow upon you a bit of fortune; your strength is a little too weak!"

The elder didn’t wait for Chen Feng to react.

With a wave of his hand, torrents of vigorous and pure nature’s spiritual energy began to gather above Chen Feng’s head, then surged towards him relentlessly.
