Chapter 21 Aftermath

As soon as I finished speaking, Feng Ruoxing smiled faintly, "We can change places, but you have to walk faster."

The contempt in Feng Ruoxing's eyes as she turned around didn't escape my notice.

I knew what she was thinking, but I couldn't be bothered to explain it to her. I followed her from the other end of the underground pipeline back to the surface.

Feng Ruoxing led me into a hotel, stood in front of the glass window, and glanced at the ambulances coming in and out of the street, "The three long howls you made earlier caused quite a bit of trouble. It will take us some time to deal with these troubles. You can do some of your own things first."

I threw the woman in red on the ground, "My time is limited, so if you have something to say, say it quickly."

The woman in red said in a miserable voice, "Can I still live?"

"No," I didn't lie to her, "Not only can you not live, but your soul will soon be shattered, and you won't even have a chance to be reincarnated."

I hesitated for a moment before saying, "If you have any unfulfilled wishes, I can help you within my ability."

The woman in red seemed extremely calm, "To be scattered into ashes is my retribution. I killed too many people, and retribution will come sooner or later. I had already thought of it."

"I am Dai Xuelin. You called out my name when you saw me. You should know something about my story, right?"

I nodded, "I only know that there is a girl named Dai Xuelin beside Zhang Fang. Tell me about Zhang Fang!"

Dai Xuelin said, "Zhang Fang and I were classmates..."

What Dai Xuelin recounted to me was similar to what Ye Yang had heard from Professor Lu. But what she said next caught my attention.

"The Zhang family knew about the existence of the Greed Wolf Tomb (Tanlang Mu) long ago, because the Zhang family is the tomb keeper of the Greed Wolf star."

"The Zhang family has been guarding the Greed Wolf Star Tomb (Tanlang Xing Mu), but in the process of guarding the tomb, their minds changed. They wanted the Greed Wolf to enter their fate."

I couldn't help but frown. It is not uncommon in history for people to have three stars entering their fate. Legend has it that those with three stars in their fate are extraordinary.

According to legend, Lu Bu of the Three Kingdoms had the Greed Wolf star in his fate, which is why he firmly held the throne of the number one warrior of the Three Kingdoms. Li Zicheng of the late Ming Dynasty had the Broken Army star in his fate, so he was able to overthrow the Ming Dynasty.

However, people with three stars in their fate rarely have a good ending, because in the Investiture of the Gods (Fengshen) war, the people with the fate of the three stars did not have a good ending either.

Moreover, the best ending for those with three stars in their fate is to be half praised and half criticized, and more people are criticized more than praised.

There has always been a saying in the world of術道 (Shu Dao): It is better to be a rich man than to enter the three ominous stars.

The reason why the Zhang family wants the Greed Wolf to enter their fate may be a bit puzzling.

I continued, "What happened later?"

Dai Xuelin said, "The Zhang family had already begun to prepare for the entry of the Greed Wolf into their fate, but the entry of the Greed Wolf into their fate is not a simple secret method, and the timing and geographical advantages are indispensable. Moreover, to obtain the natal Greed Wolf, it is also necessary to release the remnant soul of the Greed Wolf from the Greed Wolf Tomb (Tanlang Mu)."

I couldn't help but frown again, "The remnant soul of the Greed Wolf Star Lord is still there? That's impossible!"

In mythology, the Greed Wolf Star Lord (Tanlang Xingjun) E Shun has already ascended to the Investiture of the Gods (Fengshen Bang) and achieved divine status. He should not have any remnant soul left in the human world. This statement is absolutely unreasonable.

Dai Xuelin shook her head, "I don't know the specific situation, I just heard Zhang Fang say it."

I nodded, "Continue with your story."

Dai Xuelin continued, "The Zhang family is good at using mirrors to perform secret methods. They spent several generations sending eighteen mirrors into the Greed Wolf Tomb (Tanlang Mu). The last mirror directly shone on the center of the Greed Wolf Star Lord's coffin."

"Originally, their plan was about to succeed, but something went wrong. This caused the remnant soul of the Greed Wolf to explode and flee in all directions. This is the reason for the collapse of Xiao Mountain back then."

"Hiss-" I couldn't help but gasp, "So, there will be several people in the world with the fate of the Greed Wolf star?"

"Yes!" Dai Xuelin nodded, "Zhang Fang also said so. He said that his grandfather once asked an expert to deduce which body the fate of the Greed Wolf was on, and the other party only said one sentence: a pack of wolves vying for the fate of heaven." (qun lang zheng tian ming).

"A pack of wolves vying for the fate of heaven?" I repeated these five words over and over again. I always felt that these five words were touching my nerves, as if they were related to me in the dark.

But I don't know where this connection lies?

My master and the Nine Ghosts taught me many things, but they didn't teach me how to deduce the secrets of heaven. In their opinion, the fate of a warlock is like blood dripping on the edge of a knife, which can be scattered in the bloody storm of the martial world (jianghu) at any time.

If you calculate your fate too much, it will only make you timid and afraid, it is better not to know anything, so that you will not lose your courage and boldness to move forward.

Dai Xuelin continued, "Zhang Fang, because of his grandfather Zhang Huasheng's arrangement, occupied three to four percent of the fate of the Greed Wolf. If he wants to fully occupy the fate of the Greed Wolf, he must personally kill the other Greed Wolves."

"Zhang Huasheng didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money to ask that fortune teller to deduce the secrets of heaven. Although the other party declined several times, in the end, he didn't know why, but he deduced the secrets of heaven."

"He said..."
