Fated Cultivation: I Have Max-Level Divination Skills Chapter 69 – Dream Connections (First Update)

Chapter 69: Chapter 67: Dream Connections (First Update)

Seeing that the Lantern Woman before him was about to enter a heated state.

Zhao Huai hastily explained, “Your husband was Liu Lang right? He did not betray you, you must have remembered wrong.”

“Remembered… wrong…”

The raspy voice of the Lantern Woman slowed, obviously lost in thought.

Seeing the beneficial effect, Zhao Huai seized the moment, “Exactly, otherwise your mind wouldn’t be devoid of memories. So you must have remembered wrong.”

In fact, he was stalling for time.

From the betrayal just now, it was pretty obvious her husband had become successful and subsequently abandoned the Lantern Woman. Therefore, after her death, she turned into an Evil Spirit. This was the source of the resentment.

But on closer inspection, several details could not be explained.

The most important one being, how did the Lantern Woman go mad?

The fragmented memories were obviously insane.

Being abandoned, a normal response would be to confront the perpetrator, then being humiliated, and then going mad? This explanation seems somewhat far-fetched.

If her husband wanted to cleanly kill her and shut her up, then the Lantern Woman would certainly not have time to go mad. She may not even have time to turn into an Evil Spirit. It may all be too sudden.

Only a person carrying immense resentment when they die could be transformed into a mighty Evil Spirit. In other words, it requires a process.

Zhao Huai felt a deeper truth lied behind.

“Yes, I forgot… I cannot remember.”

The Lantern Woman muttered to herself, her eyes vacant.

The red light on her body slowly faded as well, clearly shaken by what Zhao Huai said.

With no memory of any betrayal, there was no room for hatred.

In order to soothe the Lantern Woman, Zhao Huai decided to strike up a positive conversation. He thought for a moment, then asked:

“What’s your husband like? Does he have any friends, and what does he typically enjoy doing?

The Lantern Woman thought for a moment, then slowly said, “My husband is a

devoted scholar, poor at making friends. His biggest hobby is reading at home while I watch him from afar. I enjoy watching him read the most, he looks the most serious and focused when he is reading.”

Towards the end, she spoke with some emotion.

“By ‘at home,’ you mean the wooden house we saw earlier?” Zhao Huai asked.

“Correct.”

“Perhaps we should go have a look, we may find some clues about your husband.” Zhao Huai suggested, there could be crucial information inside the wooden house.

“Alright.”

The Lantern Woman agreed dazedly.

Thus, Zhao Huai followed her, noticing that the way the Lantern Woman walked was rather peculiar.

Although it looked like a normal walk, it seemed devoid of grounding, as if she didn’t need to walk to move forward, as if she was floating, and the walking was merely an instinct from her life before death.

Zhao Huai entered the wooden house.

To his surprise, the house was entirely empty except for a bed, chairs and tables, and books, all of which were covered in a thick layer of dust. There was nothing else.

Just when he was about to leave in disappointment, he noticed a box under the bed. It looked suspicious.

On closer inspection, he froze and exclaimed, “A coffin? Why is there a coffin here?”

Under the bed was a coffin, which was undeniably small, or else it wouldn’t fit under the bed.

He suddenly realized that she was gone!

He stepped out of the wooden house and found the Lantern Woman standing at the entrance, gazing in a certain direction without moving.

A moment later, a beautiful woman with a long ponytail dressed in a green dress embroidered with lotus patterns, long legs and a slim waist came out from the middle of the road. She slightly squinted her beautiful eyes and slowly said:

“So you’re the Evil Spirit that’s been troubling the spiritual mine for a while?”

Zhao Huai was flabbergasted. He knew this person all too well, wasn’t it Lu Wanqiu, whom he had just met earlier?

But wasn’t this place within a dream? How did she get in?

Could it be… the dream space of the Lantern Woman was an independent one, he suddenly realized.

The eyes beneath Lu Wanqiu’s willow-leaf brows were filled with murderous intent at the moment.

She was clearly here for the Lantern Woman.

“Die!”

Without uttering another word, Lu Wanqiu disappeared from her spot and charged towards the Lantern Woman.She wanted to call upon her spiritual sword to kill the evil spirit, but her face went blank in no time.

She realized she could not sense the existence of her storage ring or even manipulate her True Vigor.

Staring at her palm, Lu Wanqiu’s face was full of confusion.

Indeed.

Zhao Huai thought to himself that in the dream realm of the Lantern Woman, one’s cultivation would be erased. This was obviously Lu Wanqiu’s first time in the dream realm, so she was completely unaware of this.

It was at this moment that Zhao Huai noticed the lantern in the woman’s hand gradually turning red and brightening.

“No way, it’s getting warmer again,” Zhao Huai sighed helplessly.

He had just barely managed to get his words out, but was then interrupted by Lu Wanqiu. His main annoyance was the unpredictable temper of the Lantern Woman, who would fly into a rage at the slightest provocation.

“Don’t be reckless! I haven’t found your ‘husband’ yet,” Zhao Huai felt he was close to uncovering the truth. When he did, the lantern woman would self-destruct. He was just one step away.

“So, where is my ‘husband’?” The Lantern Woman’s voice became icy, and her slender jade fingers grew longer and sharper again. “You’re lying to me, you don’t know where he is at all!”

Whoosh!

The lantern carried by the Lantern Woman had fully turned red at this moment.

Her face became incredibly grotesque and terrifying, her eyes twisted and lengthened, the corners of her mouth split wide open, revealing a gaping bloody mouth, appearing like a fierce ghost.

“Run!”

Standing in the doorway of the wooden house, Zhao Huai yelled at Lu Wanqiu.

“Young Master Zhao?”

Seeing Zhao Huai who had shown himself, Lu Wanqiu was stunned.

Unsurprisingly, she hadn’t expected Zhao Huai to be here.

In that instant, the Lantern Woman in her fury had already appeared in front of her, her claws ferociously stabbing forward.

As soon as Lu Wanqiu sensed it, she reflexively retreated. But she was still one step too late.

The Lantern Woman left a deep wound on her arm as soft as a lotus root, causing blood to seep out.

Looking at the transformed and extremelv fast evil spirit in front of her. Lu Wanqiu knelt on the ground, a serious look on her face.

The Lantern Woman gave her no time to catch her breath, disappeared from the spot, and lunged at her again.

An afterimage swept by, taking Lu Wanqiu’s hand and just managing to dodge the attack.

“Master Zhao, you…”

When she realized the person in front of her, she was stunned.

“I’ll explain later.”

Zhao Huai looked at the Lantern Woman standing still behind him, picked up

Lu Wanqiu, leaped up, and jumped into a tree.

During their escape, Lu Wanqiu was amazed at Zhao Huai’s speed.

She had already found it strange that the Lantern Woman was very fast, too fast for her to defend against, yet Zhao Huai could dodge in time.

If she’d not been pulled along, she would not have been able to keep up with him.

This meant that Zhao Huai’s speed, bursted from his physical body, was much quicker than hers!

In other words, he was an extremely powerful cultivator!

In fact, Zhao Huai, being augmented by the Destiny of Peak Ultimate’s Intention, had a physical strength that was four times that of an ordinary cultivator, so naturally, Lu Wanqiu couldn’t compare.

Moving swiftly on the tree, Zhao Huai felt a chilly wind sweeping in.

A disgusting putrid gust was wreaking havoc in the woods; the rustling sound of leaves and branches rustling could be heard in his ears.

“Since the plan to resolve resentment has failed, the only option left is the least desirable one.”

Zhao Huai had always believed that resolving resentment was the easiest and relaxing method. Otherwise, the Hexagram wouldn’t have shown this result.

“What are you planning to do?” asked Lu Wanqiu.

“To kill her.”

Zhao Huai answered impassively.

Lu Wanqiu was slightly stunned.

At this moment, she found the man in front of her becoming increasingly foreign to her.
