Chapter 762 Everyone Searches for Yu Daohen

Jian Feng shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, this tribulation is not fated for Young Master Yu, but was deliberately set for him by someone."

Upon hearing this, Yu Shuntian's brows furrowed, "Elder Jian, do you know who it is?"

Jian Feng shook his head, expressing admiration, "I don't know who it is, but this tribulation was set five hundred years ago. The person who set it must be incredibly powerful to have arranged something for five hundred years later."

Jian Feng couldn't help but wonder who this person was.

Despite being the foremost divine fortune teller in the martial world, it was impossible for him to arrange a tribulation five hundred years in the future.

This was beyond human capability.

Seeing that his grandson was in no danger, Yu Shuntian breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as he is safe, that's all that matters."

Jian Feng smiled faintly and asked, "Brother Yu, if you wish to know Young Master Yu's location, I can deduce it."

Yu Shuntian shook his head and smiled, "No, since this tribulation is fated for him, I shall not interfere too much. Knowing he is safe is enough."

"Besides, the consumption of lifespan to calculate his location would be more than a year or two. I doubt you have that much remaining lifespan."

Jian Feng smiled faintly, unconcerned, "It doesn't matter. My old bones don't have many years left anyway. If not for Brother Yu saving my life back then, I would have reported to the underworld long ago."

Thirty years ago, Jian Feng was defeated in a duel and was being pursued. It was thanks to Yu Shuntian's timely intervention that he was saved.

Otherwise, he would not be the foremost divine fortune teller today.

Yu Shuntian shook his head and smiled, "Let's not bring up what happened back then. You've helped me enough over the years; the debt of gratitude has long been repaid."

Yu Shuntian knew that Jian Feng disliked owing favors.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked his life to divine for his grandson.

Yu Shuntian thought of something else and asked, "By the way, is it true that you can't divine anything about my great-granddaughter?"

Jian Feng nodded, "That's right. That little girl's fate is very special. I can't divine anything about her."

When Yu Shuntian learned that his grandson had a daughter, he had come to divine for the little girl.

However, to his surprise, Jian Feng could not divine what would happen to Yu Yijun.

It was rumored that there were two types of people whose fate could not be divined.

One was an immortal, whose fate was beyond the scope of divination.

The other was a being who had transcended the three realms and was outside the five elements.

Such beings were also beyond the scope of divination.

Seeing Yu Shuntian fall silent, Jian Feng smiled, "Brother Yu, this situation is not necessarily a bad thing. Please don't worry too much."

Yu Shuntian sighed, took a sip of his tea, and said, "I hope so."

Jian Feng looked at the contemplative Yu Shuntian and smiled, "Brother Yu, would you like me to divine for you again?"

Yu Shuntian waved his hand and smiled, "I'll pass. You know I don't like to know what will happen in the future."

Seeing that Yu Shuntian had resolved his concerns, Jian Feng said nothing more and could only nod.

As it was getting late, Yu Shuntian stood up to leave, "It's getting late, I'll take my leave now."

Seeing Yu Shuntian's hesitant expression, Jian Feng knew what he wanted to say and replied, "Don't worry, I won't mention Young Master Yu's matter to anyone."

Yu Shuntian shook his head helplessly, "You know exactly what I want to say."

Jian Feng smiled faintly, "I know your character, Yu Shuntian, all too well."

Yu Shuntian smiled back and turned to leave, "Alright, I won't disturb your cultivation."

Watching Yu Shuntian's retreating figure, Jian Feng said nothing, but a flicker of regret flashed in his eyes as he shook his head with a sigh.

"It seems you also know you will die. But death is inevitable, and we old bones have lived long enough."

On a small boat on the Yellow River.

Su Lai was soaking wet, with dark circles under his eyes that were terrifyingly deep.

It was clear he hadn't slept for several days.

Da Hu offered Su Lai a cigarette and said, "Brother Su, you haven't slept for two days and two nights. Please get some rest."

Su Lai took the cigarette, placed it in his mouth, and shook his head, "No, I can't sleep until Master Yu is found."

Da Hu sighed, worried, "At this rate, you'll collapse before you find him."

Su Lai shook his head, lit the cigarette in his mouth, took a deep drag, and slowly exhaled. He gazed at the boundless Yellow River, his brow furrowed with worry, "Master Yu, where exactly are you?"

Da Hu looked at Su Lai and shook his head, unable to let him continue searching in the water, "Brother Su, instead of searching for a needle in a haystack, why don't we ask around?"

"Ask who?" Su Lai asked, confused, "Who can possibly know where Master Yu is now?"

Da Hu slowly said, "A fortune teller."

Su Lai suddenly realized, "That's right! Fortune tellers can not only predict fortune and misfortune but also know people's whereabouts."

"But if there's anyone whose fortune-telling skills are the strongest today, it would be Jian Feng, Elder Jian."

"Yes, let's go find Elder Jian and ask him to divine for us."

As Su Lai spoke, he prepared to start the small boat.

Da Hu shook his head helplessly and said, "Alright, you go get some sleep first. I'll steer the boat."

Seeing Da Hu say this, Su Lai finally nodded, walked into the cabin, took off his clothes, and collapsed onto the bed to sleep.

Da Hu started the small boat, planning to head back to the main camp of the Corpse Retrieval Sect.

He already had a feeling that someone else might have gone to invite Elder Jian.

The Blazing Fire Sect wouldn't rely solely on the Corpse Retrieval Sect; they would surely have other plans.

And the only way to find Master Yu now was through a fortune teller.

Da Hu's expression was grave. Master Yu had too many enemies.

With Master Yu's disappearance, many people would undoubtedly be inquiring about his whereabouts.

Their intentions for finding Master Yu were obvious: to eliminate the threat that could overturn them once and for all.

At the same time.

In the martial world.

The news of Yu Daochen's disappearance after battling the Flood Dragon had spread like wildfire.

Countless people were concerned about Yu Daochen's current condition and whereabouts.

The Chen family, the Corpse Herders, the Blazing Fire Sect...

These sects had already begun to investigate Yu Daochen's movements.

Their goal was singular: to strike while he was weak and finish him off.

At the Second People's Hospital.

Outside a ward on the left side of the twenty-second floor.

Feng Ru was conversing with a police officer.

Feng Ru's brow was tightly furrowed, "You're saying he's an orphan?"

The police officer nodded, "That's right. According to our investigation, he's an orphan. I even pulled some strings to find this out. But it's strange, there are many discrepancies in his file."

"Discrepancies?"

Feng Ru looked puzzled, "Old classmate, what do you mean?"

The police officer shook his head, "It's inconvenient for me to say more, old classmate. I can only help you this much. If I investigate further, I won't be able to keep my position."
