Chapter 799 - 799 457 What is your wish_1

Chapter 799: Chapter 457: What is your wish?_1 Chapter 799: Chapter 457: What is your wish?_1 “You are…”

Master Wanyu recognized the girl in front of her who was wearing a white inner garment, a black outer coat, black skirt, and black stockings as the person who had once told her fortune, but she didn’t quite know what to call her.

She hadn’t asked back then, and so she now found herself standing awkwardly in place.

“My name is…Chen Chun!”

The girl hesitated a bit, but still revealed her own name.

“Chen Chun…That’s a good name.”

After hearing it, Master Wanyu responded politely. Internally, however, she was thinking: [She has the same surname as him…]

Then, she reacted. She picked up the card in her hand, eyebrows slightly furrowed as she asked Chen Chun with some confusion, “Did you lead me here? Or are you also here for a visit?”

In fact, Master Wanyu was already leaning towards the first answer.

“Everyone who gets a Destiny Card from us in The Divine Machine Mansion is someone we are predestined with. Our lineage evolves through divining the fate of these predestined individuals,” Chen Chun confirmed with a nod, pointing towards the card in Master Wanyu’s hand. “You are one of these predestined individuals.”

Upon hearing this, Master Wanyu’s face displayed her confusion. As far as she remembered, she had only been able to tell her fortune thanks to Chen Mobai.

Logically, Chen Mobai should be Chen Chun’s predestined one.

Or does everyone who’s ever had their fortune told count as a predestined person?

If that’s the case, isn’t it too casual?

“That is, I don’t need my fortune told anymore. You can go find other predestined individuals.”

Master Wanyu had never been interested in fortune telling—if it was of any use, she would’ve been able to fly away with him long ago.

“Fortune telling is merely a means to begin finding the predestined individuals. Guiding these individuals is about showing them a way to fulfill their heart’s desire.”

Just as Master Wanyu was about to turn around and leave, Chen Chun suddenly said something that made her pause. After hearing it, she immediately turned back round, her eyes sparkling with interest.

“Fulfilling wishes, is this true?”

Seeing Master Wanyu’s interested expression, Chen Chun felt secretly relieved. However, she still spoke with an even tone to the girl in front of her.

“It’s not exactly fulfilling wishes—we’re not gods, after all—we merely point out a way for you to fulfill them. Whether they come to fruition or not depends on the actions of the predestined individuals themselves.”

Master Wanyu felt somewhat disappointed after hearing this, but considering she was about to graduate, and since she’d given up any hope of Foundation Establishment, her deepest, longest-held hopes, which she had never dared to verbalize, began to take form. They surged forth, on the verge of being spoken aloud.

Thankfully, her sense of embarrassment kept this impulse in check at the very last moment.

Seeing Master Wanyu’s hesitance, Chen Chun became slightly anxious.

With anyone else, as soon as she said this, they’d spill out their deepest wishes as if she were some wish-granting machine.

Why was this person so reserved?

Should it be said that she was truly worthy of being his…

Even now, with no memory of the past, still just an innocent, naive girl, her state of mind was as calm as ever.

“Speak of your innermost wish, and I’ll tell you the way to achieve it.”

Chen Chun spoke again, her gaze landing on the Streamer Sword behind Master Wanyu.

She had led her here because of this sword—it could help her succeed in Foundation Establishment.

Master Wanyu was about to graduate after ten years at university. If she didn’t want to join the military, then her deepest wish must surely be to succeed in Foundation Establishment.

In this way, she could be exempt from military service.

As the heiress to The Divine Machine Mansion, Chen Chun had predicted all of Master Wanyu’s thoughts. She was simply waiting for her to speak so she could calmly point to the Streamer Sword.

She would then say: [What you desire is right behind you].

Even just imagining this scene, Chen Chun felt it was incredibly powerful. It was fitting with the long-standing, sophisticated and extraordinary style of The Divine Machine Mansion.

“Actually, my wish is a bit difficult for me to say.”

Master Wanyu finally gave in to Chen Chun’s persuasions, coupled with the urgency she felt as her upcoming graduation and possible military service loomed. She decided to at least give it a try, revealing a little bit of what was on her mind to Chen Chun.

“It’s okay. Within our sect, there is almost nothing we do not know,” Chen Chun’s tone was casual but her confidence was palpable.

“As you know, I’m about to graduate soon. But since I haven’t established my foundation, and I don’t want to serve in the military, so…” Under Chen Chun’s guidance, Master Wanyu overcame her shyness. With her face flushing and her eyes glittering, she continued.

Upon hearing this, a smile tugged at the corners of Chen Chun’s mouth.

As she thought, everything was as she had predicted. There wasn’t a word or a sentence she hadn’t anticipated.

Just as Chen Chun was about to cough slightly, raising her finger to point towards the Streamer Sword behind Master Wanyu, the other half of a sentence she never could have predicted fell into her ears.

“…I was thinking, could I have a child? That way, I wouldn’t have to serve in the military.”

After Master Wanyu finished speaking, her snow-white cheeks turned a fiery red. She embarrassedly raised her hand to cover her eyes, not daring to look at Chen Chun’s reaction.
