Chapter 822: Born with Strange Eyes

~8 min read 1,419 words

"May I take a look?" Chen Yu was immediately interested in this reagent, though he felt this medicine was not that simple.

"Of course, Young Master Chen, feel free to look." Zhou Ming handed the item in his hand to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu opened the packaging and took out a vial of the reagent. These two vials totaled two hundred milliliters, with English printed on them and the packaging being very precise. Chen Yu's Divine Sense penetrated the reagent, feeling the changes within.

He only felt surging energy rolling incessantly within the reagent. These things had high activity and seemed to be used for cell repair, but because the activity was too strong, under normal circumstances, the human body would not be able to withstand this medicinal power.

"These things are not suitable for human use." Chen Yu returned the medicine in his hand, his brows locked tightly.

"Why is it not suitable for human use?" Zhou Ming was startled.

"I can't quite put my finger on it, it just feels strange. It's best to be cautious." Chen Yu shook his head.

"I spent a huge price to get these. That's impossible; I've inquired about that company, there definitely won't be any problems." Zhou Ming became agitated.

"Alright, put the things away and we'll talk about it later." Zhou Lao's brows furrowed: "Always neglecting your proper work; one of these days I'll send you to the military."

Zhou Ming smiled awkwardly and hurriedly put away the things in his hand.

Just at this moment, a series of knocks sounded at the door of the private room. After the door opened, a waiter brought an old man in.

This old man wore a gray long robe and was playing with two walnuts in his hand. He wore sunglasses and looked like he should be blind.

Although he looked like a blind man, Chen Yu felt he was the same as a normal person, especially when he directed his gaze toward you; it would give you an extremely strong sense of oppression.

Chen Yu could not figure out who he was for the moment, because he was not a Martial Artist, and there was no Origin Spirit breath of a Dharma Cultivator on him. But his aura was hidden very well; if you didn't look at him, he simply did not exist in your consciousness.

"Haha, Xu Lao, you've come. Come, come, come." Zhou Lao laughed heartily and stood up himself to help the old man sit down.

"Since Lao Zhou is hosting, I have to give him this face no matter what." The blind old man sat down slowly. He played with the walnuts in his hand, then turned his gaze toward Chen Yu's side: "This young friend is the little Chen you spoke of? Hmm, not bad, his aura is restrained and not emitted, quite possessing the insight of an expert."

"Little Chen, this is Xu Lao, Pavilion Master of the Dragon Breath Five Elements Pavilion. He is well-versed in Yin-Yang Five Elements and Esoteric Sect, and I've heard he can even summon wind and rain." Zhou Lao laughed and said: "We are old friends of several decades. Lao Xu, you are right, this is indeed little Chen."

"Greetings, Xu Lao." Chen Yu nodded slightly and offered a greeting. He knew that Zhou Lao inviting him over today definitely didn't involve anything good; wasn't he introducing someone from Dragon Breath to him now?

Xu Lao nodded and smiled to show his return greeting. He looked at Chen Yu and said with great interest: "This young friend is truly not an ordinary person. Forgive this old man for his poor eyesight, I can no longer see the young friend's Cultivation realm. I presume you have already broken through the limits of Martial Dao and become a Dharma Cultivator."

"Xu Lao, I am just a common mortal." Chen Yu smiled faintly. He was now also becoming interested in this old man. Although this Xu Lao was blind, there was a trace of awe-inspiring intent wherever his gaze landed.

It was as if his gaze were a pair of invisible, large hands that could stroke your head in the intangible realm.

"A common mortal? The young friend is truly humble." Xu Lao smiled slightly: "That little snake you killed last time was not an ordinary thing; it definitely wasn't something a common mortal could deal with. My Five Elements Pavilion is short of people; I wonder if the young friend has any interest in joining the Five Elements Pavilion?"

Chen Yu gave a bitter smile; this Zhou Lao was indeed acting as a pimp.

"Little Chen, I mentioned this to you last time, but you said you weren't interested. However, the Five Elements Pavilion is one of the six great pavilions under Dragon Breath. You understand these Strange Arts, which is exactly the talent the Five Elements Pavilion needs, so this time Xu Lao came in person." Zhou Lao said with a chuckle: "Won't you consider it?"

"Really, there is no need." Chen Yu smiled faintly: "Thank you for the favor, Zhou Lao, but I am not suitable."

"Haha, young man, don't refuse so quickly. I was just asking about your willingness earlier. To join the Five Elements Pavilion, you still need to undergo many trials." Xu Lao laughed: "First, we have to see if your Life is hard enough."

As Xu Lao spoke, he looked straight at Chen Yu. A faint blue glow flashed in his eyes behind the sunglasses. In this instant, a powerful aura locked onto Chen Yu, observing Chen Yu's Life Appearance.

"Whether my Life is hard or not, Xu Lao can tell at a glance." Chen Yu smiled: "I know Xu Lao was born with the Eyes of Heavenly Appearance and can see through a person's future Life Appearance, but this pair of eyes is not something everyone can look at."

Just as Chen Yu's voice fell, Xu Lao, who had been full of confidence and smiling, suddenly had his expression change drastically. Following that, he let out a muffled groan, his body swayed, and he retreated several steps.

"Lao Xu?" Zhou Lao hurriedly stood up to support him.

One could see Xu Lao's expression was one of shock. He stared at Chen Yu with a dull look: "Purple Star Emperor Fate... you."

Before Xu Lao finished speaking, two lines of fresh blood flowed down from his eyes. He looked at Chen Yu with a shocked expression, his eyes stinging for a moment.

"I told you not to look." Chen Yu gave a bitter smile, then he said: "Xu Lao, can we talk alone?"

"Of course." Xu Lao took off the small sunglasses and wiped the blood from his eyes.

"Waiter, arrange a room." Zhou Lao called out.

A moment later, in a room, Chen Yu performed Acupuncture on Xu Lao: "Because Xu Lao has this pair of eyes that can pry into the past and future, you have attracted quite a bit of Karma to yourself, haven't you? The reason your eyes cannot see is because you leaked too much Heavenly Mystery, which damaged your roots."

"I won't hide it from you, I started as a physiognomist. Because I have this pair of eyes, my readings are extremely accurate. In the intangible, I defied the Heavenly Dao and leaked Heavenly Mystery, so this is Heavenly punishment." Xu Lao gave a bitter smile.

"I can cure Zhou Lao's eyes, but I have some questions I want to ask Zhou Lao." Chen Yu said.

"Are you trying to ask what a Purple Star Emperor Fate is?" Xu Lao asked.

"Yes, I want to know what a Purple Star Emperor Fate is." Chen Yu asked.

"This kind of fate is born for slaughter, or perhaps a born emperor, who can one day stand above billions of living beings and look down upon the world." Xu Lao muttered: "And your Life number has been altered by someone, so the reason you possess this kind of fate is because the Heavenly Mystery was tampered with by someone."

"But this kind of pattern of tampering with Heavenly Mystery and defying the heavens to change one's fate is not something an ordinary person can do. He spent such great effort to change your fate, and he himself will also suffer the backlash of the Heavenly Dao."

"Backlash of the Heavenly Dao." Chen Yu's expression was complex: "He risked the backlash of the Heavenly Dao to change my fate; what was it for?"
