Chapter 571 Failure

The Tracing Mirror brought the state of the person being illuminated back to the most important and memorable day in their memory.

When everyone watched Xie Chen transform from a youth into a stern young man covered in wounds and with a gloomy expression, they were all shocked.

Xie Chen, on the other hand, discovered that he had turned into the most wretched day in his memory. His mouth twisted, and blood couldn't help but gush out.

His body and strength had also returned to that day, the day his conspiracy was exposed and he was driven to despair by everyone.

It was so similar to the current situation.

Everyone was staring at him with the same disbelieving expressions.

"You...returned to...how did you do it?"

Looking at the sinister expression on the young man's face, Xie Zhen shuddered and said in a trembling voice, "How...how did you become like this in the future?"

Xie Zhen swayed, unable to resist calculating with his fingers, but before he could learn anything, he himself coughed up blood.

Sure enough, Xie Chen's fate had been changed!

He couldn't calculate it and was even countered!

"Why?"

Xie Zhen looked with some heartache at the child he had picked up and raised since birth. He had such high hopes for Xie Chen, but the other party..."Is love so important to you?"

Xie Zhen couldn't understand what could have turned Xie Chen into such a non-human, ghostly appearance. He didn't dare to look at the girl beside him.

That woman was like Xie Chen's untouchable scale. The moment he opened his mouth, even before he could say her name, Xie Chen had subconsciously shielded Mingmei behind him.

"Liking her is my own business. It has nothing to do with her," Xie Chen said, taking all the blame on himself.

"The way of divination, measuring people's lives, calculating the fortunes and misfortunes of the heavens, deciding one's fate with a single word. Sounds powerful," Xie Chen said, covering his bleeding mouth with his hand. "But when it comes to oneself, you realize how powerless it is. Destined...but without fate. What a cruel outcome?"

Xie Zhen's face turned pale. Recalling the words he had said earlier and combining them with Xie Chen's current state, he immediately understood everything!

"You want to change fate?"

"Yes, but I failed..."

Xie Chen chuckled lightly. He had failed completely, and he would always remember that in his heart.

"What did you do...to change fate?"

Xie Zhen regretted asking the question, but he still wanted to know what Xie Chen had done.

"Before, I wanted to change my own fate," Xie Chen said, looking at Xie Zhen's disbelieving expression, and smiled, "Master, you know that no one has ever ascended in the way of divination. Even if you had great expectations for me, you never really thought I could ascend, did you? The end of this path was cut off long ago because of divining the heavens and spying on the will of heaven."

"You..."

"But, I want to ascend, Master," Xie Chen said, looking in the direction of Mei Shi and Ming Yi. "They left with Mingmei. I don't have the ability of Mingxiao Zhenren. I don't ask to take others to ascend, but I can't even leave here myself."

"I did so much, but in the end, I still failed...Since going against the will of heaven is impossible...I might as well deceive it."

Xie Chen licked the blood from his lips with his blood-stained tongue. Now that things had come to this, he wasn't afraid of everyone knowing, but this time he had failed again.

He had done so much to overturn most of the hexagrams that Xie Zhen had once divined, just to create the impression that Xie Zhen's hexagrams were inaccurate, and that all the so-called "destiny" was just "a joke."

But the killings caused by this "joke" were too great.

"So, you once wanted to ascend, but failed, so now..."

As he spoke, Mo Wenshu then took out a brocade box, the very one that the Fifth Elder had brought during the day, the letter he had taken from Xie Zhen in front of everyone.

"The key. You now want to destroy the ascension of the couple, so that she will stay here forever, is that right?"

It was self-evident who Mo Wenshu was talking about. At this time, everyone's eyes turned to Mingmei, who was being blocked by Xie Chen.

Only then did everyone realize that Mingmei hadn't said a word since just now. They looked over.

They realized that Mingmei's condition seemed wrong. Her eyes were dull, and she didn't even notice their gazes...

"Hey, why do I feel like something's wrong?"

The two "human-shaped cameras" lying on the ground also felt strange as they watched the anxious atmosphere above.

"Yeah, it seems like that girl hasn't reacted at all since the Tracing Mirror shone on her?" Julian looked in Mingmei's direction and guessed, "Could it be that there's something wrong with this treasure?"

"What's wrong?"

"Maybe it changed the person's state incorrectly? Otherwise, why would she be standing there so blankly?" Julian said, only to realize that the voice asking him wasn't Lou Jia's.

Instantly, Julian's hair stood on end. A small monk in an apricot-colored robe with mottled blood stains suddenly appeared in his vision.

The other party was standing directly above him!

[Player death, game over.]



"Meimei?"

Mei Shi was the first to notice that Mingmei's condition was wrong, but just as she was about to step forward, she was stopped by Ming Yi. At the same time, Xie Chen was also full of vigilance, completely blocking Mingmei behind him.

"What did you do to Meimei?" Ming Yi was still rational and remembered what was going on with Mingmei.

He looked at Shi Qing, and Shi Qing shook his head and said, "The Tracing Mirror will only take her back to the most profound moment in her memory. As for why it's like this, maybe only she knows?"

"Then what time did Meimei return to?" After returning to her parents' side, Mei Jiu's emotions gradually stabilized. She hadn't understood what was going on with Xie Chen from just now until now, but she still understood a little about Mingmei.

No one present could answer. Seeing Mingmei like this, it was as if she had returned from the future. Who knew what time she had returned to?

"She has returned to the time when you two ascended."

At this moment, Chan Guang's sudden appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention, but his current appearance was nothing like the compassionate Buddha that he usually was. The blood stains on his body and the strange red mark between his eyebrows represented that this person's current situation was not right.

"Fifth Elder! What did you do to the Elder? Just now, the Fifth Elder stopped him!"

The moment Mei Jiu saw Chan Guang, she exploded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She instantly recalled the terrifying scene just now, and the way the Fifth Elder stopped the other party at the end.

Chan Guang ignored Mei Jiu's shouts, but stepped up into the air step by step, as if there were transparent steps under his feet, until he was level with everyone, Chan Guang stopped.

Looking at the Tracing Mirror held by Shi Qing, he then looked at the two people being illuminated.

Suddenly, Chan Guang let out a mocking laugh at Xie Chen, "You're in a sorry state. Without me, you were caught so quickly."

Everyone: ??!

This sudden self-exposure made everyone present look at Chan Guang. Chan Guang didn't seem to feel anything, but tilted his head, turning the blood-stained prayer beads in his hand, and continued, "Look, the deepest moment in her memory is leaving here. You did so much, but she still thinks that leaving here is the most memorable moment in her life. Xie Chen, look at you..."

How much of a failure!
