Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go

Fu Xuan's eyes welled up with tears.

"Senior sister...can you help me?"

"I don't have that ability. This is the karma between you and your master. Even if I were to interfere at will, I would only be affected by this divination, die young, and suffer undeserved disaster."

The light in Fu Xuan's eyes faded, and after a moment of silence, the stubbornness in his eyes remained.

"In that case, I'll use my own method."

Yao Guang advised:

"Master has already accepted the outcome, so why are you so bothered, Junior Sister? The Fu family has invested so many resources in you, and Jade Palace is a treasure trove for diviners to further their studies. If you want to leave, you'll be interfering with the interests and relationships of countless people."

Fu Xuan did not answer and silently returned to his residence.

As Yao Guang had predicted, when Fu Xuan expressed his intention to go to another immortal ship to serve as a diviner, many people tried to dissuade him.

The family used both soft and hard tactics, those who believed in Fu Xuan gave him earnest advice, friends offered their counsel, his parents were puzzled, and even a general came to inquire about him.

But Fu Xuan wouldn't listen; her stubbornness was unshakable, a relentless pursuit of the truth.

Many people know the inside story and can only sigh with regret, but as long as this situation is over, Fu Xuan will still be able to return to the Jade Palace.

So even though everyone failed to persuade him in the end, they still agreed to Fu Xuan's departure to another place.

Fu Xuan formulated a plan within a single day.

She's going to Luofu!

Luofu is currently the most famous ship in the Immortal Ship fleet. The Five Heroes of the Clouds, the Balanced Demigod, and so on—any one of them could be a topic of endless conversation.

Most importantly, there are variables!

Fu Xuan was well-versed in history and naturally knew the classic case of destiny being altered—Sword Master Yao Feng winning the resurrection match!

All of this is related to that demigod. When Fu Xuan was only five years old, Mr. Cheng Xiao came to visit.

Another reason is that it was entrusted by my master.

"The former Grand Diviner of Luofu, Wangxu, was a good friend of mine. I owe him a favor. When you go to Luofu, please give him my regards."

Having made up his mind, Fu Xuan arrived at the port, where the starship that had been prepared was already moored.

Before I left, my senior sister Yao Guang was waiting for me here.

"Junior sister, who knows how many years you'll be gone? I'm so lonely!"

Fu Xuan rolled his eyes:

"Senior sister, this is the Technological Immortal Ship. If you want to talk to me, just call Yu Zhao."

Yao Guang covered his mouth and sobbed softly:

"Junior sister, are you really leaving? Are you really not going to show us any mercy? Can you really bear to part with all the happy memories we shared?"

"Without your teasing, Senior Sister, my divination skills will improve even more."

"Well, you little brat, you actually think that way about your senior sister!"

Yao Guang's visit was obviously not to persuade Fu Xuan; she took out a thin book and gave him a flirtatious wink:

"This is a gift from your senior sister. Remember to take good care of yourself while you're away from home."

Fu Xuan's eyes welled up with tears, and he forced a groan.

"Okay, I'm leaving."

Fu Xuan didn't look back and resolutely boarded the star raft, leaving her native hometown.

Jade Palace... I wonder when I will return next.

......

When Fu Xuan landed at the port, he saw a completely different ancient style from the Jade Palace.

There were no sophisticated instruments or talismans, only ordinary buildings and pedestrians as plain as lukewarm tea.

The hawking and storytelling on Changle Street were incredibly vibrant with local life.

For Fu Xuan, Luofu was like a foreign land.

However, it is still part of the Immortal Ship, so at least culturally it doesn't feel so unfamiliar to Fu Xuan.

Jing Tian had already informed Jing Yuan in advance, so Fu Xuan was taken to the Grand Divination Office by the diviners sent to Luofu not long after he arrived.

Upon arriving at the Taibu Si (a place name), Fu Xuan finally regained some sense of familiarity.

After settling into her accommodation, she finally had time to pack her luggage.

On the unfamiliar celestial ship, filled with both novelty and loneliness, Fu Xuan couldn't help but open the gift given to him by Yao Guang.

Tucked inside the thin book was a letter and a talisman.

Junior sister, this parting is filled with sorrow. Do not worry about your distant land. The method of transformation you seek is on the Luofu Immortal Ship. Mr. Cheng Xiao is very easy to talk to. I have already spoken to him.

This journey may be long and uncertain, so junior sister should strive for excellence and further her studies in divination. Senior sister will be waiting for the day you defeat me in the game!

This lucky charm is for my junior sister. I hope she can inherit my good fortune and have everything go smoothly for her!

Fu Xuan stroked the letter, silently putting away the talisman of Yao Guang, tears finally falling from the corners of his eyes.

In this unfamiliar land, Fu Xuan felt the warmth brought by his family.

Not long after, Jing Yuan summoned Fu Xuan.

"Miss Fu Xuan, you are a distinguished guest of the Jade Palace and a top disciple of the Heavenly Diviner. If there is anything unsatisfactory about the Diviner's Office in Luofu, please feel free to give me your feedback."

Fu Xuan looked at Jing Yuan, who sat at the head of the table. Was this eloquent general the Shence Army? Or one of the Five Valiant Warriors of the Clouds?

Fu Xuan finally met him in person today, and bowed respectfully.

"General, rest assured, I came to Luofu to study and improve myself, and naturally I hope to make progress together with the Grand Master of the Luofu."

"Alright, alright, then I'll leave it to Miss Fu Xuan."

Jing Yuan smiled calmly, but Fu Xuan couldn't see through him.

But she had great respect for the Five Heroes of the Clouds, and General Jingyuan was definitely a reliable person.

Fu Xuan didn't expect that she would soon give up all such ideas.

"You are the new diviner."

Wang Xu pointed out the way.

Fu Xuan: "Huh?"

Inside the Grand Divination Office, Fu Xuan originally just wanted to report for duty and get used to the work of a diviner in Luofu.

As a result, Wangxu Taibu, who had been living in seclusion for a long time, suddenly appeared and announced to all the diviners that Fuxuan had succeeded to the throne.

It was inconceivable that the vacant position of Grand Diviner was suddenly filled by a new outsider.

Fu Xuan himself was also dumbfounded.

Before she could even put her skills to use, her lifelong dream was already fulfilled?

She became a diviner just like her master?

Although he's from Luofu, he's still a Grand Diviner! One of the Six Emperors!

Fu Xuan took a deep breath:

"Senior Wangxu, please don't joke around. I'm new here and haven't done anything yet..."

"Stop! I'm asking you, are you Jingtian's disciple?"

"yes..."

"That settles it then. Jingtian promised me he would find an apprentice to succeed me, and now that you're here, it's you!"

"What!"

Fu Xuan was truly unable to hold back any longer.

"Senior Wangxu! The power of the Grand Diviner belongs to one-sixth of the Immortal Ship; how can it be handed over to others so easily as to be a child's game?"

Wang Xu didn't care about anything:

"I trust Jingtian's judgment. Anyway, I still have to go fishing."

"Wait! Wait!"

Fu Xuan quickly stopped Wang Xu.

"Senior Wangxu, do you know why I came to Luofu?"

"I don't know."

"I had no idea that you and Master had such an agreement before I came to Luofu."

"Oh! That's even more of a destiny; the position of Grand Diviner is surely yours."

Fu Xuan: "That's not what I meant!"
