Chapter 1886: Chapter 1885: Ceaseless Infighting Within the Blackwater Palace

"Why don’t we go in and see for ourselves?"

A man wearing a black robe with a stern expression frowned and said.

"Carefree Palace isn’t a place we can enter just like that; only the Alliance can enter Carefree Palace."

After an unsuccessful attempt, the Six Great War Gods departed one after another.

Outside Destiny Hall stood a giant old tree adorned with numerous golden leaves, each leaf’s veins were clear and lifelike.

Under the vast starry sky, the golden radiance emitted from the Destiny Tree resonated with the stars above.

A young girl in a white dress sat on the threshold, resting her chin on her hand, gazing absentmindedly, lost in thought.

She was the God of Destiny of Blackwater Palace, in charge of overseeing the life tokens, which were the golden leaves on the tree.

Each leaf represented a person, the veins on the leaf symbolized that person’s fate.

While she was lost in thought, six golden leaves fell from the tree.

Having resided here for years, she naturally knew these leaves were the life tokens of the Four Great War Gods.

"The Vermilion Bird War God, Azure Dragon War God, Dragonflame War God, and Daoran War God have all died, what’s going on?"

Standing from the threshold, she approached the Divine Tree, crouched down, and picked up the four fallen leaves from the ground.

Her jade-like hands tightly gripped the golden leaves, and her autumnal-water-like eyes showed confusion.

"The Four Great War Gods have all died, the Acting Alliance Leader is also dead; this is a significant matter, I must inform Alliance Leader Zuo."

"In the Blackwater Secret Realm, battles are unending, ten War Gods guard different areas. Now with four War Gods dead, a great calamity is likely to occur within the Blackwater Secret Realm again."

The God of Destiny held the leaves in one hand and lifted her skirt with the other as she quickly reached outside Alliance Leader Zuo’s pavilion.

At this moment, the night had grown deep, and soon, the Flame Bird would herald the arrival of dawn with its call.

Arriving outside Alliance Leader Zuo’s door, she noticed that the lights inside his house were still on.

Cautiously approaching the window, she reached out a finger to poke through the paper-covered window, peeking inside.

She saw Alliance Leader Zuo cultivating, his expression quite bizarre, with green on the left side and red on the right.

Moreover, a blood-red mist rose behind him.

Seeing this, the God of Destiny was startled.

What kind of technique is Alliance Leader Zuo practicing?

Alliance Leader Zuo is truly diligent, still training so late into the night.

I’m different; be it spring or autumn, I’m always sleepy, preferring to sit on the threshold, propping my chin with my hand to doze off.

At this moment, Alliance Leader Zuo sensed someone outside; he sank his energy into his dantian, gathered seven-colored Xuanguang, and returned to his original form.

Immediately, he spoke coldly.

"Who is outside the door, what brings you here?"

Hearing this, the God of Destiny trembled, standing outside with her whole body shivering, she replied softly.

"I am the God of Destiny, and I have an urgent matter to report."

"Come in then!"

Upon hearing this, the God of Destiny pushed open the door and walked into the room. Upon reaching Alliance Leader Zuo Han, she cautiously held out the life tokens towards Zuo Han.

"Alliance Leader, the life tokens of the Four Great War Gods fell overnight, and I’ve observed changes in the veins of the life tokens of the remaining Six Great War Gods."

"This is a grave matter, so I came to report it overnight."

The God of Destiny looked somewhat worried.

Zuo Han received the life tokens and frowned as well.

"How convenient, the Alliance Leader just left not long ago, now the Four Great War Gods are gone too, is Blackwater Gate really on a decline?"

Zuo Han raised his head and sighed deeply.

Seeing the life tokens delivered, the God of Destiny, merely a minor official in charge of life tokens, felt this matter was beyond her concern.

"Alliance Leader, this young lady bids farewell."

Saying this, the God of Destiny bowed to Alliance Leader Zuo, then proceeded to leave the room.

Zuo Han then stood up, pacing in the room with his hands behind his back.

With the Acting Alliance Leader deceased, a new Alliance Leader needs to be chosen.

After witnessing the failure of the previous Acting Alliance Leader, Zuo Han became much more cautious.

A leader who can stabilize the convention is essential.

"It’s time to visit Heavenly Mystery Tower."

In Zuo Han’s view, whoever becomes the Alliance Leader is predetermined by fate.

It’s best to consult the Divine Calculator, Li Chunfeng, to predict who might be the next Alliance Leader.

Closing the room door, Zuo Han flew directly towards Heavenly Mystery Tower.

Heavenly Mystery Tower was located in a void valley within Wolong Mountain, where there was a hut in front of which stood a star-gazing platform.

An elderly man with frosted brows lay on a cool chair, gazing at the stars above the firmament.

In his hand, he waved a white fan.

What’s most captivating are his eyebrows, incredibly long and drooping like willow branches on either side of his eyes.

"Divine Calculator, it’s been a while, and you’re still up late, aren’t you?"

At this point, a voice came from behind.

Soon after, Zuo Han appeared leisurely before Li Chunfeng.

Li Chunfeng upon hearing this, chuckled lightly.

"I knew you’d come to see me tonight; how could I sleep?"

Surprised by this, Zuo Han realized Li Chunfeng had foreseen his visit tonight.

Zuo Han raised his thumbs admiringly, taking a seat on a stone chair beside the star-gazing platform.

"I truly envy you; living a carefree and joyful life, lounging on a cool chair, fanning yourself, and stargazing daily."

"I’m different, managing countless affairs big and small within Blackwater Alliance personally, incessantly busy all day long."

Zuo Han couldn’t help but sigh.

Three thousand years ago, he was cultivating on Tianyong Mountain.

Back then, Tianyong Mountain was merely a little-known sect, during which he sought the chance to perform great deeds but was never afforded the opportunity by heaven.

Now, three thousand years have passed swiftly, and though busy, he yearns for those past moments.

Li Chunfeng listened and smiled gently.

"Why envy me? It’s merely passing days; unlike you, Alliance Leader Zuo, I’ve heard you’ve done great deeds for the Blackwater Secret Realm over the years."

"Many sect masters within the Blackwater Secret Realm don’t respect Qin Tianba but treat you with utmost reverence."

Li Chunfeng glanced back at Zuo Han and said.

Upon hearing this, Zuo Han laughed heartily, feeling much relieved, he waved his hand and said.

"Thanks to the world heroes’ favor, I’ve also come this time with something to consult with you, old sir."

Saying this, Zuo Han’s expression grew humble.

Li Chunfeng’s demeanor was humble, a picture of attentively listening to counsel.

Upon hearing this, Li Chunfeng laughed heartily and said.

"Zuo Han, if you have something to say, just say it, no need for detours with me."

"It’s like this, recently Alliance Leader Qin Tianba died unexpectedly, while the Four Great War Gods also passed mysteriously. Now, Blackwater Palace is like a knotted mess, urgently needing a leader for the Blackwater Secret Realm."

"Many covet the position of Alliance Leader, but not all possess the fate to become one; hence I wish to consult you, elderly sir, to foretell who might be the future Alliance Leader."

Having said that.

Zuo Han took out a book; it was filled with names and birthdates.

Simultaneously, Zuo Han retrieved a jar of fine wine and a packet of pig head meat from his ring.

He knew well of Li Chunfeng’s preferences.

Li Chunfeng enjoyed sipping fine wine and munching pig head meat while predicting others’ destinies.

"You’ve certainly shown sincerity~"

Li Chunfeng, eyeing the pig head meat and fine wine, his eyes suddenly lit up.
