Chapter 2021: Chapter 1989: Suan Tian and Old Ghost

A middle-aged man was still smiling and saying he wanted to do a divination for Li Chen and Chris, but unexpectedly, after reading Li Chen’s fortune, he fled as if he had seen a ghost.

This scene not only left Christina puzzled but also surprised Li Chen.

What the middle-aged man was mumbling before was just silently recited in his heart. Although his lips moved a bit, Li Chen didn’t know what he was muttering, but the last sentence was heard by him.

What monster?

Li Chen couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh. Since his debut, many people indeed regarded him as a monster, but this monster referred to his combat power and his talent in cultivation.

Li Chen also knew that these were merely what the Seven Realms Tome had bestowed upon him.

However, no one had ever looked at him like that middle-aged man just did, as if he were a real monster.

Even Li Chen himself couldn’t think of anything on his body that would scare such a strong person so much.

One should know that this is the God Subduing Swamp, and even Li Chen himself could not say he could directly rush out without using some special means.

But that middle-aged man seemed to totally disregard the powerful restrictions of the God Subduing Swamp and just flew out.

Such a powerful existence was actually afraid of him?

"What did you just do?" Back on the raft, even Christina couldn’t help but ask Li Chen.

She had witnessed the middle-aged man’s terrified appearance.

"If I say I did nothing, would you believe me?" Li Chen couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh. He also couldn’t figure out what was going on. Was there something about his palm that scary?

In Li Chen’s view, although he had achieved a lot now, there was also great luck surrounding him.

If it weren’t for this shroud of luck, Li Chen believed that although he was a bit stronger, he should also be quite limited.

He never underestimated himself, nor did he overestimate himself too much.

Having cultivated to this stage, those arrogant and complacent feelings were long gone; along the way, he had experienced too many things, had been struck down, had countless times of being pursued with no way out.

But just a bit of luck shouldn’t have scared such a strong person that much, right?

Li Chen thought hard but got no results, finally could only sigh lightly and shake his head.

"Let’s go, we’ll continue forward."

Christina nodded, no longer bothered by this small episode.

What they didn’t know was that after flying out of the God Subduing Swamp, the middle-aged man quickly distanced himself from that area.

Looking in the direction of the God Subduing Swamp, the middle-aged man’s face was still lingering with a sense of fear: "Damn, the omen of world destruction and creation actually appeared on one person at the same time. What monster is this guy? The creator? And he seems to have the Reincarnation Seal on him too, although faint, it can’t escape my eyes. The Reincarnation Seal... wasn’t that exclusive to Guangming?"

Just at this moment, a silhouette slowly drifted over, quickly appearing beside the middle-aged man.

"Old Ghost, you’re here too?" Seeing the silhouette, the middle-aged man couldn’t help but speak.

If Li Chen were here, he would surely recognize that the silhouette was the tracker he discovered following Tian Yi and the others not long ago. Undoubtedly, this tracker was also a top-notch warrior.

"Didn’t expect Brother Suan Tian to be here too. This place is not far from the God Subduing Swamp; does Brother Suan Tian want to observe the divine skills of the Innate Gods and Demons?" The pale youth called Old Ghost spoke politely, but it was clear from their words that the two were quite familiar with each other.

"The divine skills of the Innate Gods and Demons are indeed interesting. Initially, I wanted to find two to look at too, but this time... I really saw a ghost!" Suan Tian said with lingering fear: "Of course, not a ghost like you."

"Saw a ghost?" The pale youth referred to as Old Ghost asked, puzzled.

"Yes! Let me tell you, that guy has both the creation..." As he spoke, Suan Tian suddenly stopped, lifted his head to look at the sky, which remained quiet.

"Forget it, although this place can conceal much destiny, the cunning sky can still reach in. Some things, I’m not at liberty to say much about." Suan Tian shook his head: "But Old Ghost, I must remind you, if you encounter that guy, don’t become his enemy!"

With that, Suan Tian casually waved his hand, and an image appeared by his side, depicting Li Chen.

"Him?" Seeing Li Chen, Old Ghost was also taken aback.

"You know him?" Suan Tian, someone who had lived for countless years with sharp senses, could immediately tell from Old Ghost’s expression.

"I’ve seen him once." Old Ghost nodded: "This is the person the Supreme has taken a liking to."

"The person the Supreme has taken a liking to..." Suan Tian was slightly startled, understanding why Li Chen had such great luck around him.

"But, how to explain the signs of world destruction and creation, and the One-thought Saint Demon? Those omens of destruction and creation are only on the World-Destroying Beast, and the One-thought Saint Demon... isn’t this saying he’s both a demon lord who slaughters the world and a savior who rescues the world?" Suan Tian muttered to himself.

"Brother Suan Tian, is there something wrong?" Seeing Suan Tian’s expression, Old Ghost also felt a seriousness arise within him. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Others might not know, but he did—this Brother Suan Tian uses divination art to cultivate, famously unparalleled in precision. Even during the Ancient Wars, he played a crucial role, ultimately calculating the entrance of the Doomsday Beast Soul, and the Four Realms paid a great price to seal the entrance with the Four Realms and the Doomsday Beast Soul, bringing an end to the Ancient Wars.

But such an existence now bore such an expression, meaning he must have discovered something incredible.

"Nothing." Thinking it over, Suan Tian eventually shook his head, chuckling bitterly: "Since he is the one favored by the Supreme, there must be a reason. As for what the result will be, I won’t hastily speculate."

"But Old Ghost, we’ve known each other for countless eons. Still, I remind you, if possible, do not get close to him. If you have any close friends, they should not get close to him either."

"Why?" Old Ghost curiously asked.

Suan Tian hesitated, finally giving a not particularly crucial piece of information.

"There’s a problem with his life pattern."

"A problem with his life pattern?" Old Ghost was taken aback.

"Even though it seems to have been altered by someone, I can still tell that his original life pattern appears to be that of... a Lonesome Star of Heavenly Slaughter!"
