Chapter 938: Really Married (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
“Take it!”
The burly man was stunned. “I don’t have to sign anything?”
“That won’t be necessary. In the world of martial arts, the most important thing is loyalty and keeping one’s word. I trust you.”
“Thank you.”
Immediately, the rough man left with the jewelry and left the city overnight.
Shen Ping was right behind them.
“Brother, I didn’t expect us to be so lucky this time. We actually obtained the treasure without any trouble.”
“Yes, with these treasures, we can live in peace for the rest of our lives!”
“Third Brother, haven’t you always wanted to marry a wife? You can do it this time.”
“Brother, let’s split it quickly.”
They arrived at a remote area and were going to split the loot. But the craggy man pressed his hand down. “I’ve read the blood letter. Let’s avenge the people who left the treasure and kill the bandits. Then we’ll split the treasure.”
“What, big brother, you’re really going to take revenge!”
“We don’t know anyone who left behind the treasure. If you ask me, there’s no need.”
“That’s right. We’ve already obtained the treasure. Why should we care about anything else?”
The others spoke up one after another. The rough man frowned. “If we don’t do this, we won’t keep our word. How can we stand in the future?”
“Big Brother, have you heard too many stories? There’s no such thing as a pugilistic world. Once we get the treasure, we can go back and live a rich life. Why are you meddling in other people’s business? Besides, who knows where those bandits are? Why should we care?”
“That’s right.”
Listening to his brothers, the rough man sighed. “All right, let’s split it first.”
After dividing up the treasure, the rough man suggested that they split up. He planned to take revenge himself, and the others could do whatever they wanted.
Seeing this, Shen Ping had a good impression of this rough man. He was indeed trustworthy. Therefore, he used the Pupil of Flame Beast again to check their fates for the next few days.
After separating, the rough man followed the clues to a nearby county city and investigated the traces of the bandits back then. By chance, he encountered other chivalrous men who were also looking for bandits. They hit it off at first sight.
As for the remaining people, some returned to the prefecture capital to eat, drink, and play with the treasures. In less than two days, they were targeted by someone with ulterior motives. They died and lost their wealth. Some returned to the countryside to live a stable life, but they still revealed their wealth and were plotted against.
Some of them were ready to do business, but they lost everything. There were also some who relied on the treasure to find a few desperadoes and set their sights on others, preparing to snatch their jewelry. However, they were destroyed by desperadoes.
Shen Ping had been following this group of people for half a month. He had used the Pupil of Flame Beast to see their fate. Other than the rough man, the rest had died an unnatural death like before. “Is this fate?”
These people were just ordinary people. From their point of view, their choices were the most suitable for them. They could not be simply judged by right and wrong. But when he changed their short lives, he still could not change their destined deaths.
This made him fall into deep thought. If one did not comprehend the power of fate, they would only feel that the few people who died deserved it. However, Shen Ping had comprehended a trace of the power of fate in the Dao Sect world, so his perspective was naturally different. He even suspected that even if he continued to interfere, he could not change their fate.
During this period, there would always be an invisible force pushing without a trace.
Next, Shen Ping stayed in the prefecture capital and mingled in the streets, wine shops, inns, teahouses, and other places. He observed the fate of every ordinary person from the perspective of a bystander. Most of them were stable and did not have much of a fluctuation. Only a small number of them were affected by their environment. Their fates were full of misfortune. No matter what efforts they made, they would end up the same.
He went back to the Yun Country’s Lingzhou City, continued to observe the ordinary people at the bottom. This time, he more or less interfered. Although it did change the fate of some people, more than 80% of them did not change.
As for these people who had been changed, once he did not continue to interfere, they would quickly be corrected and walk back into their original fate.
Shen Ping had already expected this, so he was not disappointed. Instead, he increased this interference. By observing a person and interfering with people or matters that were inextricably linked to them, such a move was really effective.
At least after he did not interfere for a period of time, their fate did not return to its original trajectory.
“If fate is an endless river, then when it interferes with the direction of the river from the outside, it will receive a rebound. This rebound will ultimately affect the river itself. Once it loses the external force, it will quickly correct and repair it!
“But everyone’s fate is entangled in the river of fate. Changing one of them will be corrected by the other river of fate. Changing a lot will really change the direction of the river. Then where will this rebound power go?”
He kept thinking and summarizing, and continued to observe. Just like that, one year, two years… for a full five years.
During this period, he paid no attention to the outside world. Whether it was Princess Yunyang, the Yun Country, or anything else, he no longer paid attention. Even if Yang Yimo looked for him, it was very difficult to find him. Only every night, there was a candle burning in the attic of the garden.
Boom! Crack!
Summer came. The rain poured down and washed the entire city. The crisp sound of falling rain rang out in the tile gully. Shen Ping looked at the rain outside the window. He kept writing with the brush in his hand.
Over the years, he had written down all the experiences of every person he had observed over the past five years. After continuous connections, he had already discovered that the more he interfered, the more fates of everyone involved would eventually affect the continent’s capital and indirectly affect more people.
In the end, when he stopped interfering, the rebound of fate would seep through some of the general trends in the continent’s capital. Coincidentally, it would forcefully correct and repair the original trajectory of those who had originally changed fate.
It was like going around in circles and coming back to square one. Although this was different from before, the final outcome was the same.
The pen stopped.
The rain stopped.
Look at the stories one by one, Shen Ping seemed to be looking at everyone’s lives. In the past five years of participation, he had some enlightenment, but more than that, he had developed a sense of reverence for fate. The more he understood, the more he could sense that under the influence of fate, no matter how much interference or how strong the power was, it was useless. In the end, he would become a part of fate’s arrangement.
“Correction, restoration, just part of the power of destiny.”
He shook his head. He seemed to have comprehended something. In fact, he knew very well that he was not even worth a scratch. Moreover, if not for the Pupil of Flame Beast, he would have looked even more blurry.
However, three days of foresight was still too little. Although he could keep following them and summarize it, it was far from enough in Shen Ping’s eyes.
“It’s been five years. It’s time to contact Princess Yunyang.”
Thinking of this, Shen Ping teleported and appeared in the Yang family mansion. In the boudoir of Yang Yimo, the gauze curtain was hazy. A beautiful figure was soaking in the wooden bucket, her figure graceful.
“Who?” Sensing the commotion, she scanned the room warily. She lifted the veil. When she saw that it was Shen Ping, she said shyly and happily, “Brother, Brother Shen, why are you here?”
Shen Ping glanced at her fair skin and faintly discernible curves and said indifferently, “Why? Can’t I look for you?”
“Of course you can. It’s—it’s just that I’m a little inconvenient right now.”
“Get dressed. I’ll meet you outside.”
Yang Yimo blushed. “Brother Shen, why are you in my room so late?”
She was not surprised at all by Shen Ping’s silent appearance. It was as if in her eyes, Shen Ping was omnipotent.
“I want to ask, where is Princess Yunyang?” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
“Ah… Princess Yunyang married into the Yan Kingdom four years ago!”
“Oh, she really married?” Shen Ping blinked. Although he had only had a one-night stand with Princess Yunyang, in his opinion, she was a very ambitious woman. How could she be willing to be a sacrifice for the marriage between the two countries?
