Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return Chapter 1666: Divine Fortune Teller Lu Guantian Appears
Previously on Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return...
Mu Hanyan had never noticed before that his temperament was so fierce.
Seeing this, many people also reversed the blade of their swords. Even knowing certain death awaited them, without even a chance to resist, they completely let go. Preferring to commit suicide rather than let the Holy Master gain any advantage.
The Holy Master glanced at them indifferently. He had planned for this day for a long time and had already anticipated the actions of Sang Qinghe and others, along with measures to counter them.
With a thought, the Holy Master prepared to take action once more. With his power, if he struck with all his might, they would not even have the opportunity to kill themselves.
"Wait, wait, wait, don’t be so eager to die, have you forgotten about me?" At this moment, Mu Hanfeng’s voice rang out.
Everyone was shocked, looking at Mu Hanfeng with vigilance. Previously, they were so stunned by the appearance of the Holy Master and, knowing his purpose, they felt both desolation and anger, their minds muddled, forgetting all about Mu Hanfeng’s presence.
It was not until now that everyone suddenly remembered that from the beginning, the array was controlled by Mu Hanfeng. He was clearly the Holy Master’s confidant. With him by their side, committing suicide would be difficult.
"Mu Hanfeng, you are the Young Master’s younger brother, why would you harm even her? To curry favor with the Holy Master, would you abandon even your family?" Zhuang Ping’an sternly questioned, while others glared angrily at Mu Hanfeng, eyes filled with disdain.
"Is this how you all see me? Sister, do you think of me this way too?" Mu Hanfeng smiled slightly, turning his head to look at Mu Hanyan.
"No, I believe you would not harm me. You must have your reasons for doing this." Mu Hanyan replied with the same smile, speaking firmly.
Upon first seeing the Holy Master and Yun Qianmo appear simultaneously, her heart was in turmoil, but she was the first to regain clarity.
She immediately thought of Mu Hanfeng. Indeed, her intuition was right. There was indeed something off about the array set by Mu Hanfeng. But she absolutely did not believe he would harm her. She knew that Mu Hanfeng must have his reasons for doing this. And the profound smile on his face seemed to prove this.
Soon, all will be revealed.
"Only my sister understands me best." Mu Hanfeng exhibited a relieved expression.
In fact, doing these things put him under immense pressure, filling his heart with worry. But fortunately, until now, his sister had never doubted him.
That was enough. As long as he had her trust, even if the whole world despised and scorned him, he would have no regrets.
As he spoke, Mu Hanfeng once again formed hand gestures!
The array, which had previously stagnated, suddenly reactivated. Everyone simultaneously felt a lightness in their bodies. Although the lost power didn’t return to their bodies, the remaining Qi, Divine Sense, and the hidden strength in their blood didn’t continue to drain out.
"Not bad, your natural talent hasn’t disappointed me. You actually discovered the flaw in this array. Judging from your hand gestures, you must have been pondering this method to break the array for quite some time." The Holy Master did not stop him, instead, he seemed somewhat appreciative as he spoke.
"Indeed, I had long felt that many matters involving my sister were too strange. Many things that seemed unrelated on the surface showed countless connections upon investigation. Digging deeper revealed layer upon layer of mysteries, so I started paying attention. Who knew, once I paid attention, I found even more enigmas." Mu Hanfeng said.
Though he spoke lightly, Mu Hanyan knew that his discovery of these mysteries was not by chance but entirely out of concern for her. He must have put in unimaginable effort to investigate these, experiencing countless hardships.
Looking at her brother’s handsome face, now carrying a hint of maturity and some traces of weariness, Mu Hanyan was even more moved.
"If I’m not mistaken, the array you taught me was derived from the Evil Technique you obtained from Gui Yu Mie, and perhaps you also comprehended the Divine Hall Secret Technique from Hua Guanyu. Moreover, it was your order that led to the extermination of the Han and Tang Families, though you privately forged decrees to sow confusion. Also, my grandmother was either injured by you or by this person at your side.
You say you took me as a disciple, not due to my natural talent, but because with me setting up the array, my sister wouldn’t suspect anything. Am I right, Master?" Mu Hanfeng continued, his smile carrying a hint of mockery as he uttered ’Master’.
"You’re right. Although these things weren’t done by my own hands, they were indeed prompted by me." The Holy Master nodded in acknowledgment.
The truth emerged; all mysteries were fully revealed. The true mastermind behind killing Hua Guanyu, leading to the extermination of the Han and Tang Families, and injuring Lu Nianxin was the Holy Master. Undoubtedly, the person who acted was Yun Qianmo.
Huayue and Tang Bufan clenched their sword hilts tightly, flames of hatred burning in their eyes, eager to charge forward and fight the Holy Master. But upon looking at Mu Hanyan, they restrained their impulse.
They were very aware that with their current strength, they were no match for the Holy Master. Charging forward would be nothing more than certain death. If it were just them, it wouldn’t matter, but Mu Hanyan couldn’t die; she must live. Only by their five-person alliance could they help Mu Hanyan elevate her combat power to the utmost limit, providing her a slim chance at survival. Therefore, they couldn’t die yet!
"Since you had long suspected me, why did you still acknowledge me as your master and learn that array?" The Holy Master asked Mu Hanfeng.
"Even if I didn’t acknowledge you as my master, would you abandon today’s plan? No, you would choose someone else to proceed.
Perhaps my sister would become suspicious, but you would always have a countermeasure. Having a plan in hand makes it difficult to counter. Rather than being manipulated, I chose to use your tricks against you." Mu Hanfeng smiled lightly as he spoke.
"Um, indeed well said. It’s not the thief you fear, it’s the thief’s obsession. That’s the principle." Ye Yanran said with deep agreement, well qualified to speak on this matter.
Mu Hanyan also looked at her brother with relief. He was right: even if the Holy Master didn’t choose him, he’d choose someone else. With a scheming and prepared villain, she and the other Descendants of Divine Guardian would eventually fall into the trap. After all, no one could anticipate the Holy Master’s intentions, or be constantly on guard against him.
The only way was to use his plan against him, exposing his conspiracy early. To possess such strategical depth and decisiveness, her brother had truly matured.
"Ha, using his tricks against him. Do you really believe that with just your ability, you can completely break this Primordial Divine Blood Array?" Although his conspiracy had been exposed and the array stopped under Mu Hanfeng’s hand gestures, the Holy Master remained unfazed and full of confidence.
Upon hearing his words, a chill ran through the crowd’s hearts. In order to deduce this array, the Holy Master had painstakingly devised it. Mu Hanfeng had joined his sect for only half a year, and with less strength, age, and worldly experience, he might have a hard time truly breaking the great array.
As expected, with a wave of the Holy Master’s sleeve, Mu Hanfeng’s hand gestures met with enormous resistance and could proceed no further.
"Indeed, I cannot break this great array by myself." Mu Hanfeng’s expression remained unchanged, and he didn’t make futile efforts, easily withdrawing his hands before continuing, "But adding one more person should suffice."
Even before his voice had faded, an elderly figure approached on the wind. Dressed in simple, rough hemp garments, he appeared rejuvenated and one with celestial elegance.
"Master!" Qu Shanling trembled with excitement upon seeing the elder, tears streaming down as he cried out loudly.
He guessed correctly, and all his hardships were not in vain. By following Mu Hanyan, he finally found his Master.
Indeed, this elder was none other than his master—Lu Guantian.
