"Brother Yuan, do you think the divination is true? Or is this merely a coincidence?" Chu Liuxiang asked him when they returned.

"I want to believe it's merely a coincidence, but…" A bittersweet smile appeared on his face when he recalled what the handsome man in his dream told him.

"I don't know. I just have a bad feeling about the situation."

Chu Liuxiang shrugged and said, "Well, even if there is a calamity, I'm sure you'll protect us, Brother Yuan."

Yuan smiled and said, "Of course. That is my number one priority."

The following day, Yuan woke up early in the morning again.

"You've been waking up early lately, Yuan." Meixiu suddenly stopped cultivating and said to him.

"I'm meeting up with a friend that I made recently," he said.

"The one who gave you the zither?"

"Yes."

"I see… Have fun."

Meixiu returned to cultivating the next moment.

After cleaning his face, Yuan grabbed his zither and went to meet up with Azure behind the immortal caves.

"Have you heard about the approaching calamity?" Yuan suddenly asked Azure at the end of their session.

"Yes, it's always a hot topic within the family, especially as of recently. Did something happen?"

"Well, the crystal is beginning to turn red, which means the calamity is near… really near."
