Rebirth: The Time-locked Girl
Chapter 1039 - 989: Stunned—Where Ying Zijin Is
CHAPTER 1039: CHAPTER 989: STUNNED—WHERE YING ZIJIN IS
As the most laid-back and carefree younger generation of the Fifth Family, Diwu Yue only wants to be a rice worm, eat until full, sleep, wake up, and count her gold. Exhausted from counting, she eats again, then goes back to sleep.
But as the last disciple of Divine Calculation, Diwu Yue feels she still needs to get her act together, so she chooses a busy spot to set up a stall and earn money.
The first time she sees Ye Wanlan, she knows this customer must be very wealthy, and she will definitely make money.
Diwu Yue sees Ye Wanlan looking at her with interest, and her eyes light up: "Sis, I have other products here too. If you need them, I can give you a 9.9% discount!"
"You’ve been setting up this stall for an hour and a half but haven’t had any customers, so you’re thinking of leaving when you saw me." Ye Wanlan finally speaks, "You had beef buns for breakfast, hmm, and drank a bowl of tofu pudding, but after a while, you felt it wasn’t enough, so you had a cup of milk tea."
Diwu Yue is dumbfounded.
"Also, you’re from a good background, but you only like saving money and don’t like spending it." Ye Wanlan smiles slightly at her, then lazily adds, "Even though what’s in this brocade bag are ordinary herbs, the fact that you dare to sell them for a million proves your true talent. Why not be more serious? I might consider buying it."
Diwu Yue is completely astonished: "Sis, are you also in the business?!"
Everything Ye Wanlan said was spot-on!
She really ate eighteen beef buns this morning and drank two bowls of tofu pudding.
Although compared to her master, her strength is quite lacking, considering her master is the only Divine Calculation in All Realms.
But she’s not bad either, able to determine if someone has divination talent.
"No." Ye Wanlan says plainly, "I saw it."
Diwu Yue is even more puzzled: "Saw it?"
"There’s a milk tea stain on your right sleeve, and the oil at the corner of your mouth isn’t wiped clean." Ye Wanlan smiles again, "Your clothes are of high quality, yet you’re setting up a stall here, the dust on the cuffs is neither too much nor too little, indicating you’ve been here less than two hours."
Diwu Yue’s mouth opens wide: "Sis, what are you actually, to notice even this? Are you a detective?"
"Nope." Ye Wanlan raises her eyebrows even higher, speaking slowly, "What’s the matter, aren’t you a fortune teller? Didn’t you figure it out?"
"Well... um... haha!" Diwu Yue awkwardly scratches her head, lowering it in disappointment, "I really didn’t figure it out, what I just said was all nonsense, sis, can you forget it, pretend I didn’t say it, okay?"
With her current ability, there are very few people she can’t figure out, counted on her fingers.
She can even predict where Cesar hides his gold and gleefully take it all away in his shocked gaze.
Yet she truly can’t even deduce the name or age of the girl in front of her.
Diwu Yue begins to suspect she hasn’t mastered her skills.
It’s fine if she loses face, but she can’t bring shame to her master’s elderly self!
No, wait...
"Ah—" Diwu Yue suddenly says, "I know who you are, you must be the King of Atlantis my master spoke of!"
No wonder she can’t figure out any identity information about Ye Wanlan, considering she’s a being on the same level as her master.
Ever since she calculated with her life the location of her master’s heart, she was strictly forbidden by her master to predict similar things.
"What a coincidence." Ye Wanlan is also a bit surprised; she stretches out a hand and smiles, "Ye Wanlan, turning the tides in dire moments."
"I’m Diwu Yue, I have three siblings: Diwu Feng, Diwu Hua, and Diwu Xue." Diwu Yue says happily, "My master is the famous Sage of the Wise World—"
Saying this, she suddenly seems to recall something terrible and makes a crying face: "Sister Xiao Ye, please don’t tell my master I was out swindling and asking you for a million, she’ll definitely spank me!"
Ye Wanlan nods: "I’ll be watching your behavior."
"Doomed, completely doomed." Diwu Yue swiftly packs up everything at the stall, "Must not let master find out, no, there’s nothing in this world master doesn’t know."
With a "pop," the light of life in her eyes vanishes.
"Hey, it won’t be doomed." Ye Wanlan raises her hand, touches her head, "There’s nothing a meal can’t solve, if there is, have two meals."
Diwu Yue stares blankly at her: "Sister Xiao Ye, you really seem like an older sister."
Boohoo, all her brothers and sisters are violent fools.
Diwu Yue slings her tattered cloth bag over her back and follows Ye Wanlan to the restaurant.
The door opens, and all eyes gather.
Seeing Ye Wanlan and Diwu Yue appear together, Cesar’s smile freezes.
His fingers tremble: "You... you didn’t swindle Miss Ye, did you?"
Diwu Yue finds this scene and those words somewhat familiar.
It’s just like when she used to swindle her master at the stall, her grandfather would say the same thing.
"No way, I bumped into Sister Xiao Ye, so we just came together." Diwu Yue lies with her eyes wide open, "You all were waiting for me?"
"Who’s waiting for you?" Cesar snorted, "It’s better if you didn’t come; when you do, the height bar of the street gets dragged down by you."
Diwu Yue: "!!!"
She’s so angry!
Diwu Yue makes a face at Cesar: "I already know where your seven hundred and eighty-second gold vault is, just you wait!"
Cesar: "...I was wrong."
Diwu Yue proudly lifts her chin.
No wonder it’s her, she easily wins.
"Folks, something happened over at Mianxi." Qin Lingyu frowned, "Miss Ye, Young Master Yan, if you don’t mind waiting a moment, you can join us for a trip to the Ancient Martial World."
Ye Wanlan and Yan Tingfeng raise their heads: "Ancient Martial World?"
"Ancient Martial World is an independent space located on the continent where Hua Country is." Qin Lingyu explains, "Inside are a group of ancient martial artists. Ancient martial arts were first passed on by Ah Ying when she came to Earth; they can push the limits of the human body and extend life."
Cesar adds: "Powerful ancient martial artists can resist firearms, and in recent years, as spiritual energy becomes more abundant, ancient martial artists have also become stronger."
Ye Wanlan nods, indicating understanding.
"Miss Ye must also know that although worlds exist parallel to each other, they’re absolutely unaffected without external interference." Qin Lingyu continues, "But that doesn’t mean external forces won’t appear. Mianxi just said that a space-time rift appeared in the Ancient Martial World, and we currently don’t know what might happen."
Right now, Ying Zijin and Fu Yunshen are both absent, making everyone quite vigilant.
Even though Earth No. 22 has long passed its apocalypse crisis, isn’t under the Time Administration Bureau’s control, and is separate from the existence of All Realms.
But in the vast universe, there are many powers, so anomalies can still arise.
Qin Lingyu further states: "It’s not too major an issue; the Ancient Martial World is originally an independent space. There was a space-time rift a year ago too, but just some people from other worlds mistakenly entered ours through the rift."
"Tingting and I will go with you." Ye Wanlan says, "Since I’m here, I’m here for everything."
Her younger sister visited here once, and she’ll follow in her sister’s footsteps.
The Wise World evidently protected her and Si Fqing, so she certainly has to give back.
"Good." Qin Lingyu breathes a sigh of relief, "Ah Ying also said, if anything happens while she’s away, with Miss Ye here, any issue can be resolved."
"So where did master actually go?" Diwu Yue scratches her head, "According to my observations, master seems to have had a conflict with someone."
Cesar gets curious: "Who? Can you see the specific person and location?"
Norton says casually: "Who it is doesn’t matter; they’ll die anyway."
