Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

When flattering others, I never felt anything wrong with it, but when the same flattery was directed at me, Big Playboy Mu found it a bit nauseating.

However, to tell the truth, Qu the Godman’s adaptability was really not just ordinary strong. So quickly he had learned my entire set of flattery, and with just a bit more time, he could bring forth the new from the old, surpassing the teacher. This old god had prospects!

”Alright, enough already, you want me to help you decipher the mystery of the Star Illusion Thousand Machine Technique, right?” asked Mu Hanyan.

”Indeed, that is precisely what this old man intends. If Young Master Nan could save my life, I would be endlessly grateful and be willing to be a cattle or a horse in my next life to repay your great kindness,” agreed Qu Shanling, nodding repeatedly.

”Don’t talk about all that nonsense, twenty years,” Mu Hanyan said bluntly.

Thinking about the next life, you assume everyone has the chance for reincarnation? Keep dreaming.

”What twenty years?” Qu Shanling was taken aback.

”If I can help you, for the next twenty years, you must work for the Nanmu Auction for free,” said Mu Hanyan.

Originally, seeing this old god’s hair and beard had turned completely white, I decided to extract the remaining value of his next ten years. Who knew that the white hair was dyed, and the wrinkles artificially aged, and he was actually only in his forties? Ten years of free labor was too cheap for him; it definitely had to be extended by another ten years.

”Agreed!” Qu Shanling responded without hesitation.

What was twenty years of labor? As long as he could get past this hurdle, any condition was acceptable. His Master had said that by overcoming this crisis, not only would he live a hundred years, but he was even likely to break through the limitation of life and death, meaning a lifespan of two hundred or even hundreds of years. What was twenty years wasted in comparison?

”Young Master Nan, can you explain it to me now?” Qu Shanling asked impatiently.

Explain? Big Playboy Mu knew absolutely nothing about the Star Divination Skill; how could she explain? But she wasn’t worried. Gazing intently at the Star Illusion Thousand Mechanism Technique in front of her, after pondering for a long while, she picked up a pen and marked something slowly, then another mark.

Mu Hanyan could now confirm that the pattern on the Star Illusion Thousand Mechanism Technique was indeed that of the Star Chart on the Star Plate, but it was incomplete, and due to its ancient and worn state, even more so.

However, that Star Chart pattern had long been within her Heart Meridian; she didn’t even need to consult the Star Plate and directly completed it.

”What does this mean?” Qu Shanling looked at the now-complete Star Chart, perplexed.

”Look for yourself,” said Mu Hanyan, tossing down the pen, hands clasped behind her back, gazing out through the window like a reclusive expert.

She might not understand Star Divination, but pretending to be a god-man and playing mysterious, was she not capable? And even if she wasn’t, wasn’t there a live teacher right in front of her?

”Oh,” Qu Shanling acknowledged and started to frown deeply, causing all his wrinkles to reappear.

”This old god-man!” Mu Hanyan cursed in her heart, turning her face away.

”What exactly is your relation to the Star Illusion Thousand Machine Technique?” Mu Hanyan silently wondered. Of course, she was addressing Star Illusion Thousand Machine.

”It is but a trivial skill I disseminated, not presentable on stage,” said a line of small text, appearing disdainfully on the Star Plate.

”You disseminated it, but who exactly are you, and how do you know the Star Divination Technique?” Mu Hanyan pursued with interest.

She had asked similar questions before but never got an answer. She had thought it would choose silence this time, but to her surprise, after a short wait, a line of text slowly emerged on the Star Plate: ”You cannot know now; your strength is too weak, and it would do you no good.”
