Chapter 67: "No, I will go with you." Mu Chen had made up his mind not to let Gu Yunjue go alone.

The one who came here was no other than the man who took care of the herbal garden for Mu Chen. No one had ever heard about his name. Actually, they only knew the man's last name Li. Gradually, everyone in Yanyang Palace just called him Uncle Li or Mr. Li. But Mu Chen usually called him Diviner Li. It was naturally unnecessary to take seniority into account as the man was not even a member of Yanyang Palace.

Mu Chen felt a bit surprised when he was halted by the man. As everyone knew, the man was able to tell people's fortune and the most miraculous thing was that he was always right. Certainly, as the god gave him the unique gift, he had also taken something away from him. Diviner Li had been blind since his birth and no medicine could cure him.

Diviner Li put Fragrance Tree outside the window and then clapped his hands, averting his sight to Mu Chen with some hesitation and struggle in his eyes.

His grave look made Mu Chen inexplicably feel that some bad things might happen. "You have some bad divination about me, right? Is it so hard for you to tell me directly?" inquired Mu Chen.

"Not exactly. I'm just confused," Replied the man smilingly. "I suddenly lost the ability to see your fate clearly eighteen years ago. So I have kept on researching it all these years and now it seems that I eventually figure something out."

Mu Chen got speechless hearing his words. He grabbed a handful of Black Egg's feather. It never occurred to him that he would become a study subject one day.

"Lately, I've just noticed that there is so many dark clouds around your Love Star. So it's possible that you will have some trouble in love affairs. Remember to be careful on the road." Diviner Li was not sure himself while he was warning Mu Chen. After all, no woman would like to fall in love with Mu Chen because his face couldn't be colder. Who would want to see such a cold face every day and take good care of him? Thus, they could only simply admire him so nothing else would happen between Mu Chen and a woman.

Mu Chen got stunned for a moment and then asked curiously, "...Trouble in love affairs?" The diviner's words made him want to laugh. "When I became an apprentice of Lofty Cloudy Sect, Martial Uncle Xuanji told me that I am destined to be alone and no woman will fall in love with me. Where should the trouble come from?" he added.

"I can't figure all these things out." Diviner Li made a bow with hands folded in front, smiling. "Farewell, we can meet again if fate allows."

"Are you going to leave?"

"Yes, it's time to go as there shouldn't be any more connection between Lofty Cloudy Sect and... Take good care of yourself." The man casted a glance at Mu Chen with something unperceivable in his eyes. Even though he knew clearly what would happen in the near future, he couldn't tell it out because of the limitation of the Heaven's rule. Mu Chen felt so confused, knowing nothing about his true meaning. Did he refer to the connection between Lofty Cloudy Sect and himself or he was dropping a hint that Mu Chen would have no chance to come back again?

Afterwards, the blank eyes of Diviner Li turned to the direction of Gu Yunjue. He hesitated for a fraction of a second before nodding slightly. He eventually gave no more words, shaking his head and going away.

Staring at Mu Chen's back, Gu Yunjue gradually narrowed his eyes. 'Trouble in love affairs... The following days are so attractive,' wondered Gu Yunjue in his heart.

Realizing its master's feeling, Black egg, who was busy combing down its feather, couldn't help trembling unexplainably.

As soon as Mu Chen put his hands on it, he felt that Black Egg was trying to "escape", which made him feel a bit angry. So he got it back, kneaded it and pulled a handful of feather at the same time. 'Pet will always be like its owner! Bastard!' murmured Mu Chen in his heart angrily. Thinking about what Gu Yunjue did, he even felt extremely unpleasant to see Black Egg's black feather. It was exactly that anger for a person extended even to his crow.
