Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

……

The heated discussion continued in the restaurant, while Li Lan paid the bill and left.

He never expected that a single sentence uttered by Sword Saint Dugu Yibai after he left the Ten Thousand Yuan Mountain Range would cause such a huge uproar.

That's normal, though. The northern frontier is too vast, and the interests of various forces are intertwined. Each has its own agenda, so naturally there will be disagreements and struggles.

Leaving aside the vast immortal realm, even in mortal nations, when faced with external invasion, all sorts of people and factions will emerge...

However, peace?

Li Lan scoffed at this!

He personally returned from the gray fog and witnessed the truth within it.

How can I reconcile with the gray fog? Will I become a monster that is neither human nor ghost? Or will I, like Lin Ruoxue, embark on a path of evil from which there is no turning back?

If there were a peaceful way, why would the Venerable One and all the saints have fought to the death and ended up perishing?

However, in Beidi City now, it seems that someone is stirring up trouble regarding the divination of the heavens, and the news has spread throughout the streets and alleys. Wherever he goes, people are discussing it, and the public's inclination seems to have been swayed by this person towards peace...

This made Li Lan frown.

With such a powerful external enemy, if everyone inside harbors wishful thinking and the consensus is to seek peace... that would truly be a disaster!

But the key point is that the power of the Heavenly Divination is truly immense!

After all, it has a reputation that has stood the test of time for thousands of years!

As he pondered, he wandered around and soon arrived at the city's famous raw stone mining area.

The raw stone mines of all the major powers are located in this area.

"Congratulations on discovering a unique mineral today!"

"All stones in this mine are original, old stones. We are honest and trustworthy. Welcome to come in and appreciate the stones!"

"A hidden treasure awaits, only those with the right destiny!"

Besides the super-powerful forces, many other mines of all sizes have also been set up, with all sorts of "advertisements" galore, creating a lively atmosphere.

It's just like a casino.

"Sun and Moon Mine?"

Suddenly, he saw a magnificent gate, and the four large characters on the plaque indicated that this mine belonged to the Sun Moon Sect!

Li Lan immediately stepped forward.

"Heavenly secrets and divine calculations reveal good fortune and misfortune. Friends, if you intend to gamble on stones, how can you not consult your luck?"

At the entrance of the quarry, a familiar figure suddenly appeared.

The old Taoist looked at the Taoist Immortal, who was holding a cloth sign with eight large characters written on it: "Divine Calculation of Heavenly Secrets, Predicting Human Fortune and Misfortune!"

The old man was accompanied by a young Taoist boy, who possessed an exceptionally intelligent appearance. The boy followed the old man, chanting, "I can foresee fate, fortune, misfortune, marriage, wealth, life, death, good or bad—nothing is unpredictable!"

Li Lan couldn't help but smile slightly. He hadn't expected to run into this master and apprentice pair here!

--When Li Lan went to the Sinful State to bury his bones, he encountered the other party. This pair of charlatans were good at pretending to be gods and ghosts and swindling people out of their money.

But at that moment, Li Lan was preoccupied with something, so when she suddenly saw the other person, a flash of inspiration struck her!

He vaguely seemed to have found a way to break the peace faction's propaganda offensive!

……

"Brother, these lucky copper coins are handmade by my master and can increase your gambling luck. Buy one..."

The young Taoist boy was tireless, holding some ancient copper coins and stopping people to sell them.

"Get out of my way!"

"You dare call yourselves divine fortune tellers? You fraudulent swindlers, get lost!"

"Heh, the real diviners are in the Li family. You street swindlers still think you can fool people?"

People passing by were very impatient, making sarcastic remarks and completely ignoring the comments.

"Master, what should we do... no one believes us anymore."

The young Taoist was pushed aside once again, and said helplessly.

"Don't worry, as long as you're skilled enough, someone will always fall for it... oops! Someone will always know its value!"

The old Taoist priest remained calm and composed, showing no signs of panic.

"Old man, are you from the Heavenly Mystery Sect?"

At that moment, a young man suddenly approached and smiled leisurely.

Upon seeing this, the old man's eyes lit up. He puffed out his chest, stroked his beard, and said, "Indeed! Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, I am the thirty-third generation successor of the Heavenly Mystery Sect, the True Man of Heavenly Severance!"
