Chapter 495: Chapter 219 Causality Arises Again_3

Xue Mingzhi was momentarily stunned, then scratched his head with some hesitation and said, “Given Teacher’s character, it might just be that he simply doesn’t want to see anyone.”

Uncle Changyuan frowned and subconsciously said,

“How is that possible? To risk offending the Imperial Astronomical Bureau’s Superintendent just because he doesn’t want to meet, that’s too…”

Xue Mingzhi shrugged his shoulders:

“Teacher once said, if one has to weigh the pros and cons for every action and cannot act according to one’s own desires, then what’s the point of having divine skills that can reach the heavens?

Besides, given Teacher’s identity, it’s not just the Imperial Astronomical Bureau’s Superintendent—he might not even be willing to meet with Emperor Xia himself.”

Uncle Changyuan instinctively wanted to argue, but the superintendent’s behavior and Xue Mingzhi’s confidence seemed to tell him that these words were not empty talk.

“Is Teacher Shen available at the moment? I would like to pay him a visit.”

“After Teacher instructed me to refuse the superintendent, he left alone. If you want to meet him, you’ll have to wait for Teacher’s return.”

Uncle Changyuan’s eyelids twitched, aware that Xue family’s Manor was surrounded by various protective formations and even parts connected to the Imperial Capital’s city protecting array formation, yet Shen Yuan’s departure had gone completely unnoticed by him.

“Where did Teacher Shen go out from?”

“Of course, through the main entrance.”

“That’s impossible! All of us were at the main entrance, but we never saw Teacher Shen’s trace.”

Xue Mingzhi stated matter-of-factly:

“If Teacher doesn’t want to be seen, naturally no one can see his true form.

This is true for my father, and for the Imperial Astronomical Bureau’s Superintendent as well.”

…

Shen Yuan strolled leisurely on the bustling streets of the Upper City District, where the antique shops and medicine stores on both sides faintly revealed glimmers of treasures, and most of the passersby were cultivators.

Right now, Shen Yuan wasn’t concealing his figure, but there were faint spots of starlight sinking and floating around him, his Star Astrology Divine Power quietly shielding his existence from cause and effect.

To outsiders, the very next second after seeing Shen Yuan, they would forget his existence in their minds.

His Third Realm Star Astrology Divine Power had already exceeded the power of the mundane, almost comparable to a Void Refining True Monarch proficient in the Path of Divination.

As long as Shen Yuan wished, no one within the Imperial Capital could catch sight of his whereabouts.

Shen Yuan was indifferent to visits from the Imperial Astronomical Bureau’s Superintendent and various other nobilities.

When Shen Yuan was weak, avoiding the important figures of the Imperial Court was merely for self-preservation. @@novelbin@@

But now that Shen Yuan was powerful enough, declining the superintendent’s visit was simply following his own inclinations, not wanting to get involved in the affairs of the Imperial Court.

Especially when the humanity fate and the will of heaven and earth seemed to subtly point towards Emperor Xia, this made Shen Yuan even less willing to interact with the superintendent representing Emperor Xia’s will.

As for how the outside world perceived it, that was of no consequence to Shen Yuan.

As he ambled leisurely, the space beneath Shen Yuan’s feet shifted subtly, and he silently arrived at a dead-end alley.

Without any pause in his steps, Shen Yuan continued forward, the scenery around him flickering like flowing light, and in the next moment, he found himself standing before the bustling gateway of a marketplace.`

Raising his head to look above, the words “Imperial Capital Marketplace” contained a formation that barred any demons from entering.

A flicker of starlight twinkled in the depths of Shen Yuan’s eyes as he looked towards the heart of the Imperial Capital Marketplace.

After leaving the Xue family’s Manor, Shen Yuan attempted to deduce the reason behind the elusive humanity fate with his Star Astrology Divine Power, yet the majority of causality pointed directly at the Imperial City, with only a slender thread of causality guiding Shen Yuan to this place.

Looking at the starlight-transformed thread of causality, this thread was not only linked to humanity fate but also intertwined with Shen Yuan himself.

Shen Yuan desired to trace the origin of causality, but to his surprise, he found that the source of causality had long since left this space and time.
