Chapter 982: Chapter 607: The Theory of Qi Luck

The feeble voice was instantly dispersed in the howling wind, and Xu Yuan subconsciously looked towards Tian Ye, trying to seek her opinion, but what caught his eye was her usual sidelong face.

Her unbound hair of three thousand strands fluttered in the wind, strands of black hair sticking to the corner of her lips that bore a light, teasing smile, charming and enchanting.

It seemed as if she heard nothing.

After a moment of hesitation, Xu Yuan spoke out:

"It seemed like someone was trying to send a message to you just now."

Tian Ye turned back with a smile, her eyes clear yet puzzled:

"Hmm... nope~"

Xu Yuan silently stared at her for a few breaths:

"Nonsense!"

Tian Ye pouted slightly in displeasure:

"Where did I speak nonsense? The person was calling for Tianyan, not me."

Xu Yuan rolled his eyes and asked in a low voice:

"What is the cultivation level of the person who sent the message?"

Tian Ye glanced at the passing hills and Gobi desert, and casually replied:

"I couldn’t sense Tianyan’s cultivation level, so it must be at least Mortal Transcendence."

"...." Xu Yuan’s corner of the eye twitched.

To avoid unnecessary troubles, the two of them had been deliberately concealing their own Qi over the past few days, and flying low to the ground further blocked the diffusion of the Energy Mechanism.

Together, as long as there was a distance of a few miles, even a Saint might not sense the Qi released by their swift travel.

Such a coincidence.....

A warm breeze from the Great Desert carried dry sand across her hair tips, accompanied by the girl’s playful words:

"Do you want to go down and check it out?"

Xu Yuan pondered for a while and said in a low voice:

"Let Tianyan come out, I want to ask who sent her the message first."

"No."

Tian Ye decisively refused, stepping back two steps with her arms crossed, her eyes flickering as she looked at him pitifully: "It’s not easy for me to come out, I don’t want to go back."

Aren’t you, like, over twenty thousand years old and still acting cute?

Xu Yuan suppressed the desire to complain in his heart and took a deep breath, saying:

"Since that’s the case, let’s go down then."

Tian Ye shrugged her delicate shoulders, her tone meaningful:

"Considering how unlucky you, Brother Changtian, look right now, are you sure you want to complicate things at this time?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan slightly raised his eyebrows:

"Why have you started believing in luck?"

"When did I ever say I stopped believing?"

Tian Ye’s red lips curved, her arms crossed:

"Rather than luck, I prefer the term ’Qi fortune,’ and regarding Qi fortune, Jiatiange has actually explored this aspect long ago."

As she spoke, the girl extended a finger and twirled her hair tips, her voice nostalgic and mellow:

"Before the catastrophe, aside from some unpredictable beings, the Yantian Art could almost completely predict a person’s life, and as soon as certain people or powers exceeded Jiatiange’s threshold, the Pavilion Master of that era would immediately monitor them."

"Over tens of thousands of years, among these myriad people’s files, naturally hundreds of special cases have appeared, some of whom enjoyed boundless fortune and constant opportunities throughout their lives, while others struggled on the brink of death.....

"You see, isn’t that Qi fortune?"

"Why doesn’t Tianyan know about these things?" Xu Yuan suddenly interrupted.

"There was a gap, you see."

Tian Ye thoughtlessly replied with a serene smile: "Didn’t Jiatiange get wiped out once ten thousand years ago? Those top-secret documents were definitely cleared out then."

Xu Yuan looked at Tian Ye, doubtful, and asked:

"Then regarding Qi fortune, Jiatiange..."

"No progress."

Tian Ye spread her hands neatly, replying crisply:

"Jiatiange, based on tens of thousands of years of accumulated files, theorized its possible existence but found no direct proof, nor any cultivation technique that could utilize it.

"But as for those theories, Qi fortune may not only be limited to individuals; a family, a Sect, or even your current Imperial dynasty could have their own Qi fortune."

Tian Ye, this enchantress, usually loved to torment people, but she was very clear about leaking the confidential secrets of her former employer:

"However, the national fortune is even more mysterious than individual Qi fortune, yet there are still quite a few cases that demonstrate its existence.

"There are many who were born into constant danger, but whose misfortunes ceased abruptly after joining a certain power. There are also many who, fortune as great as the heavens, could find a hidden trove even after falling off a cliff, but who struggled after joining a certain power....."

"Alright, alright."

Xu Yuan roughly understood the situation described by Tian Ye and interrupted with a light laugh:

"This theory of yours, Jiatiange, is a bit of a generalization from the particular.

"Based on your Jiatiange’s theory on Qi fortune, my Prime Minister’s Mansion should be considered extremely fortunate to have expanded so much in a few decades, so why am I, the legitimate son, still so unlucky?"

Tian Ye’s slender index finger slid across her chin, warm breeze stirring her black hair tips, her golden eyes showing no embarrassment at having her theory punctured, but rather glinting with a strange light.

A sudden heaviness fell over Xu Yuan’s heart, and he frowned without making a sound.

After several breathless moments of silent eye contact,

Tian Ye suddenly smiled lightly, her voice eerily cool:

"Who told you... that a rapidly expanding force must necessarily be immensely fortunate?"

"....."

Subconsciously, Xu Yuan thought about the outcome of the Prime Minister’s Mansion in ’Cangyuan.’

His heartbeat slightly fastened, Xu Yuan’s voice became a bit deep:

"What... what do you mean by that?"

Tian Ye gave him a hinting wink:

"I just told you."

Xu Yuan was slightly stunned, and after a brief moment of contemplation, his pupils constricted:

"The reason why a person of Qi fortune is cut off from their Qi fortune?"

"Yes."

Tian Ye nodded, her hands slightly spread apart, her crescent-like crystal eyes seeming as if they could devour one’s heart:

"People blessed with Qi fortune glide through life smoothly, their chosen powers are often the most prosperous at the time. Conversely, those with low Qi fortune are struggling on the edge of life and death, and if a power is willing to shelter them, that’s already quite good; they’re hardly in a position to be selective."
