Divine War Pill Emperor

Chapter 487 485: Short-lived

As the Compass spun rapidly, Jiang Chen's eyes were glued to it.

BEEP...

At a certain moment, the Compass slowly came to a stop.

Moreover, it pointed in the direction of Great Fortune.

Jiang Chen was secretly pleased. 'It has to be Great Fortune. With me making a move, I refuse to believe I can't handle the Fire Sparrow Kingdom.'

But just as he was rejoicing, the Compass needle, after moving to Great Fortune, actually nudged forward a little more.

Finally, the needle stopped between Great Fortune and Grave Danger.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen's entire body trembled.

He exclaimed in shock, "How is this possible? A mix of fortune and misfortune?"

'Could it be that assisting the Third Prince will also bring great disaster upon my head?'

This made Jiang Chen wonder if his Ten Directions Calculation had made a mistake.

Although his Cultivation wasn't considered very high, he was still a Martial King Third Heaven. He also had a Golden-haired Zombie King and dozens of Silver-haired Zombies protecting him.

With this kind of strength, he was still facing a great disaster.

He gritted his teeth and performed the calculation again.

The result was still the same.

'It really is a mix of fortune and misfortune.'

'This...'

He stood there stunned, staring at the result of the Ten Directions Calculation, speechless for a long time.

Since the calculation showed a mix of fortune and misfortune, there were bound to be both benefits and dangers.

He might even encounter a crisis himself.

This was what Jiang Chen couldn't understand.

'So what kind of mix is it exactly? I'll calculate it again.'

The advantage of the Ten Directions Calculation was that it could help him deduce fortune and misfortune.

He immediately activated the Ten Directions Calculation once more.

The Ten Directions Calculation switched to a different wheel.

The Compass instantly stopped at the position of Great Danger.

Jiang Chen was startled.

'It actually starts with Great Danger.'

'Since it's a mix of fortune and misfortune, then after the Great Danger, there must be a turn for the better, leading to Great Fortune.'

Even so, Jiang Chen couldn't wrap his head around the fact that he was destined to face Great Danger.

This was not a good thing for him.

'Let me calculate again. What kind of Great Danger is it exactly?'

Since he'd already started, Jiang Chen decided to see it through and began to calculate again.

He didn't need to calculate the Great Fortune.

But the Great Danger—that he had to figure out.

He had to know what kind of outcome it would be.

When the needle stopped at a certain spot, Jiang Chen's expression changed drastically.

'A life-and-death crisis.'

On the Compass, three words were displayed: "Life-and-death crisis."

In other words, Jiang Chen would encounter a life-and-death crisis while assisting the Third Prince.

A life-and-death crisis meant facing a test of mortality.

His life would be in danger.

'How could this be?'

'It's so dangerous around the Third Prince.'

'It seems I've made the wrong move.'

Jiang Chen had originally planned to use the Third Prince's power to kill the Second Prince, Wen Shixi.

But now, it seemed there was danger at every turn, and his plan might not even succeed.

He would actually have to face a life-and-death crisis. At that time, perhaps the Third Prince's life would also be in danger.

And he was now the Third Prince's Military Advisor.

Falling silent, Jiang Chen had to seriously reconsider the matter.

'Why don't I find the Third Prince and do a reading for him?'

'I'll see what his fortune is like.'

A sudden idea struck Jiang Chen, and he decided to divine the Third Prince's fate.

He walked out of his room and headed straight for the Third Prince's residence.

The Third Prince's residence was right next door.

"Jiang Chen requests an audience with His Highness," Jiang Chen said to Da Pao and the others standing outside.

Da Pao was the Third Prince's personal guard and was always by his side.

When the Third Prince was resting, Da Pao stood guard outside the door.

Seeing Jiang Chen requesting an audience, Da Pao immediately nodded. "One moment, I'll inform His Highness."

Da Pao quickly entered the Third Prince's resting quarters.

After a short while, he said to Jiang Chen, "The Third Prince invites you in."

Without another word, Jiang Chen entered the Third Prince's room.

"Jiang Chen, what matter brings you here?" the Third Prince, Wen Shiren, immediately asked.

Now that Jiang Chen was his Military Advisor, he held him in high regard, especially after witnessing his abilities.

Jiang Chen explained, "It's like this, Your Highness. I recently learned a type of divination that can read a person's fate, even their fortune and misfortune."

"I would like to perform a reading for you. What do you think?"

If he was going to assist the Third Prince, he naturally had to check the prince's fate.

If the Third Prince's fortune was poor, and his own was a mix of good and bad, the combination of the two would likely be even more dangerous.

The Third Prince was very surprised.

"I didn't realize you could also tell fortunes."

"Haha, interesting. In that case, go ahead and do a reading for me. Let's see what my destiny holds!"

Wen Shiren was extremely curious, even a little excited.

He never expected that Jiang Chen not only possessed Black Fire but could also tell fortunes.

"Your Highness, please write down your birth date and time."

Soon, Wen Shiren wrote down his birth date and time.

Jiang Chen immediately activated his Ten Directions Calculation.

Before his eyes, a virtual Compass appeared.

Both Wen Shiren and Da Pao were astonished.

They were stunned by Jiang Chen's technique.

But Jiang Chen didn't dwell on their reaction and directly began to read Wen Shiren's fortune.

BEEP...

At a certain moment, the Compass needle came to a halt.

Jiang Chen immediately focused his gaze on it.

One look, and Jiang Chen's expression changed dramatically.

'A short life.'

Wen Shiren's destiny pointed directly toward the position of "short-lived".

In other words, Wen Shiren was a prince destined for a short life.

Jiang Chen's own fate was a mix of fortune and misfortune, and now he was following a short-lived prince. Both of them had omens of great danger.

This made Jiang Chen's heart sink.

'What am I going to do?'

Jiang Chen hurriedly dismissed the Compass, not daring to let Wen Shiren see it.

If Wen Shiren saw that he was a short-lived prince, he would probably faint from anger.

All his efforts might even be for nothing.

This was not a result Jiang Chen could accept.

"What's the result?" Wen Shiren asked, quite curious.

He was genuinely interested.

Jiang Chen glanced at the Third Prince and shook his head. "Your Highness's fate is extremely difficult to divine. It seems my skills are not yet refined enough."

Jiang Chen planned to go back and calculate again, hoping to find a way to break this fate.

Otherwise, no matter how hard he worked, all his efforts would be in vain.

This Prince would not be easy to assist.

Wen Shiren laughed heartily. "Is it really that difficult?"

"My fate is hard to divine? Haha, interesting."

Of course, he hadn't noticed the change in Jiang Chen's expression just now.

However, Da Pao, who was standing beside him, clearly furrowed his brow. He seemed to have noticed the change in Jiang Chen's face.

Da Pao suddenly said, "Jiang the Military Advisor, since you know divination, why don't you do a reading for me as well?"

As he spoke, he wrote down his own birth date and time.

Jiang Chen nodded.

"I can give it a try."

With that, he performed a reading for Da Pao.

Looking at Da Pao's destiny, it ultimately stopped at "great wealth and honor."

Jiang Chen found this a bit strange.

If Da Pao could achieve great wealth and honor by following the Third Prince, it meant the Third Prince would be successful.

But how could Da Pao achieve great wealth and honor while the Third Prince was destined for a short life? It didn't add up.

Nevertheless, he smiled and said, "You? You're destined for great wealth and honor. Following the Third Prince, you will enjoy a life of splendor and riches."

Da Pao roared with laughter, clearly satisfied with this result.

Wen Shiren was also somewhat pleased.

Based on this result, he believed he was destined to be the Sovereign and secretly rejoiced.

"Your Highness, your destiny is difficult to divine. Allow me to return and study it further. I will tell you the result later."

With that, Jiang Chen took his leave.
