Chapter 1446: A New Prophecy

Chapter 1446: Chapter 1446: A New Prophecy

"Hahaha, I’m convinced! Well done, Pei Yan! You almost scared me earlier; I thought you were really going to kill that child." Jiang Feiyang laughed heartily after hearing Pei Yan’s account and walked over to him, praising him.

Pei Yan, still a bit shaken, said, "This was my last attempt, luckily it succeeded. If it hadn’t, I’d have had to seek out the two Masters of Origin to see if they could help. And if that didn’t work," he said, taking a deep breath while looking at the child in Du Guangyuan’s arms, "I’d have had no choice but to take the last resort."

He was willing to try everything within his power to let the child survive. But if these attempts still couldn’t solve the problem, in the end, Pei Yan would still make the choice he least wanted to see, because in his view, the safety of his family and friends was of utmost importance. This might be a selfish side of humans that Pei Yan couldn’t and didn’t want to change.

"Thank you, Mr. Pei! Thank you! You’ve saved my son again! Thank you!" Du Guangyuan released his son, fell to his knees, and planted his head on the ground in loud, audible gratitude.

Pei Yan waved his hand at him, signaling for him to get up, then turned to Delacuri with a smile and said, "Alright, the grudge between us should come to an end now, Delacuri, is there anything else you’d like to say? If not, I’ll send you on your way!"

Having been deceived and thoroughly defeated without any strength to resist, Delacuri knew that any verbal attack wouldn’t harm the opponent, but would just make his situation look more pathetic, becoming a laughing stock among these people. Understanding this, Delacuri regained his usual indifference and elegance. Just as he was about to let Pei Yan finish him off, he suddenly remembered something and, with a sneer, said, "Pei Yan, apart from the eternal Masters of Origin, there’s no eternal power or family in this world. Since it’s destined for me to fall by your hand today, I accept the arrangement of fate. But Pei Yan, don’t forget that this is an era on the brink of war where even Masters of Origin could fall. Compared to them, what am I? What are you? As someone about to die and your adversary, I’ll give you some advice before I pass: this is the magic realm, and some events may soon bind your destiny permanently to this land. I foresee this will happen very soon! Pei Yan, I eagerly anticipate that day, but alas! My soul will soon dissipate completely, and I won’t witness that moment."

Delacuri’s words left Pei Yan bewildered. It seemed like the curse of a dying loser upon his enemy. Pei Yan had heard countless curses, but this didn’t seem like a mere curse. It felt like Delacuri knew something Pei Yan didn’t, something that might eventually affect him.

"Finished talking? If you’re done, it’s time to go!" Pei Yan pressed his hand to the ground and leaped up, ending his longtime nemesis with a simple sentence.

Watching Delacuri’s soul vanish into dust before him, Pei Yan turned to Ye Ruozai, who held an incense burner. Ye Ruozai immediately understood, put away the burner, and began a new round of divination. This time, unlike the previous fast attempts, the last divination lingered with an ominous look on his face.

"Is he not dead yet?" Pei Yan, upon seeing this, trembled and asked. If Ye Ruozai confirmed it, Pei Yan feared he might collapse on the spot. Would Delacuri be that hard to kill?

Ye Ruozai shook his head, seeing Pei Yan’s pale face, and hurriedly explained, "I’m sure Delacuri is dead."

"Whew!" Upon hearing this, several people gathered around sighed in relief, knowing this scourge was finally eliminated. Wang Wenze rolled his eyes and protested, "You scared us to death! Delacuri is dead, so why do you look so grim? Is it still about Ye Jiumu?"

"My initial divination was about my brother’s safety. The result was clear; his last connection with the Vlad family is completely severed. For caution’s sake, I divined Delacuri’s death and got a clear confirmation too."

During Delacuri’s life, his high realm allowed him to conceal Heaven’s secrets. Thus, when his power was strong, it was difficult to divine him, which explained why Ye Ruozai couldn’t provide certain answers when arranging missions against him. As his power dropped, divining him became much easier, and once he was completely dead, his influence dissipated, making divination effortless.

"That’s good news!" Xia Yu echoed after listening.

"But I’m concerned about his last words, so I divined Pei Yan’s safety." As Ye Ruozai spoke, he looked at Pei Yan and hesitated before saying, "I foresee a great crisis in the prophecy surrounding you! This crisis will entangle us all, and you may even face the danger of falling!"

Ye Ruozai’s words caused an uproar among those present, their faces changing. Previously, they had been skeptical about the predictions of this ability, but through this series of events, Ye Ruozai proved his capability. Now, with Delacuri’s last curse and Ye Ruozai’s divination, was a significant crisis indeed looming over Pei Yan?

"Can you see exactly what the situation is? A rough area will do!" Pei Yan asked, his heart sinking as he frowned.

"I can’t see!" Ye Ruozai shook his head regretfully and said, "Whenever I try to contact the central information of the event, I encounter a strong backlash, repeatedly so. The only certainty is that it will happen in the magic realm."

Given Ye Ruozai’s current ability, such a significant influence on his divination could only come from the Master of Origin! It made sense since the only real threat to Pei Yan’s life now might be a siege by top figures of the Heavenly Dao or a personal strike by the Master of Origin. This being the magic realm, could K be targeting him? The allied major realms still exist; he wouldn’t break the alliance just for this. Has he connected with Bloodsoul? That doesn’t make sense!

"Then why wait? Get Pei Yan out of here and back to headquarters quickly!" As Pei Yan pondered, Wang Wenze suggested first, and his proposal immediately gained the support of the others present.

"But there are still three people from the Vlad clan who haven’t been caught." Pei Yan contemplated.

"Oh! How can those three even compare to your safety? And besides, they’re already like homeless dogs. You give us their location details, and we’ll handle them. You should return to headquarters promptly."
