271: Bloody Disaster

“Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, you are likely to encounter a bloody disaster in the near future!” Lin Ye frowned deeply, openly stating the result he had divined.

If it were anyone else, who would dare to inform the Empress of a race directly with such an inauspicious prophecy? However, Lin Ye was no ordinary person; his status was a rank higher than the Empress, so he naturally had no fear.

At this moment, Diana, whose slender hand was held tightly by Lin Ye, couldn't help but feel extremely surprised. She never expected that her first divination in her life would result in such an inauspicious omen!

“Lord Lin Ye, are you truly certain of this result?” The maid beside the Empress asked tremblingly, her voice filled with reverence and doubt. On one hand, she dared not easily offend the mysterious Lin Ye; on the other hand, she found it hard to believe that the Empress would encounter a bloody disaster.

Facing the doubts and worries of the crowd, Lin Ye himself was full of surprise.

Lin Ye held the Empress's hand tightly, calculating carefully again and again, but the result remained unchanged.

"I'm very certain," Lin Ye nodded firmly, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

At this time, the ministers present had solemn expressions, and no one dared to speak easily. Everyone knew what this answer meant for the Empress.

Diana frowned slightly, gazing at Lin Ye, and asked, "May I ask, sir, if you can explain what exactly is the reason for this?"

Lin Ye took a deep breath, concentrated, and exerted the Destiny Law he had mastered to its limit. He stared at the intricate lines of destiny before him, trying to find some clues.

These lines of destiny were chaotic, but vaguely presented the hexagram of Bo. The Bo hexagram signifies detachment and separation, like a person being forcibly stripped of everything. This hexagram usually portends the arrival of misfortune, hinting at great loss and endless suffering.

Unwilling to give up, Lin Ye decided to try more methods to decipher this mystery. He successively used various means such as coin divination, trigram calculation, crystal ball scrying, and tarot card analysis. Whether it was ancient Eastern metaphysics or Western mysticism, or even the Fusion of modern science and superstition, he utilized them all without reservation.

However, despite his best efforts, the information obtained remained vague and confusing, leaving people bewildered. Everyone watched Lin Ye's busy figure, their tension growing stronger. They couldn't help but start worrying about their future fate, and Lin Ye himself fell into deep confusion.

“The others, come over here,” Lin Ye decided to infer the Empress's hexagram from the hexagrams displayed by the others.

The destinies of people are closely linked; if the hexagram of a nation's Empress is greatly inauspicious, how can her subjects and common people escape involvement?

The ministers looked at each other, taking turns to step forward.

Lin Ye divined for them one by one; their destinies were much easier to read than the Empress's.

In his divinations, everyone's hexagram pointed to one thing—the Star Gate controlled by the Snake-Human Clan.

“From everyone’s hexagrams, it seems that there might be changes in the Star Gate controlled by the Snake-Human Clan,” Lin Ye said.

“Star Gate?” Everyone looked at each other.

“No way, the Star Gate controlled by our Snake-Human Clan, the main race there is the Elf Race. The Elves are incredibly kind, dislike War, and have even established friendly relations with us, who are skilled in medicine,” a minister said.

The continent where the Snake-Human Clan's Star Gate is located is called Elf Continent.

Here, Elves have proliferated to their utmost, developing to their peak.

Their Elf Ancient Tree is mature and powerful, nurturing hundreds of millions of Elves every year.

It is under this powerful Elf Ancient Tree that the Elf Race dominates the Elf Continent.

They not only have a vast population but also an Elf God.

The Elf God—Aurora, is usually depicted as an elegant deity holding a bow and arrow or a staff, her image symbolizing precision, wisdom, and leadership. She is hailed as the God of Nature and Magic.

Aurora, possessing two authorities, is clearly not comparable to an ordinary Faith God. She has managed the Elf Continent for hundreds of millions of years and is not warlike. The power of faith she has accumulated is immense; if truly provoked, her accumulated power over countless years could erupt, showing invaders what the wrath of an honest person looks like.

Precisely because of this, no one dared to provoke the Elves, and how could the friendly Snake-Human Clan suffer a bloody disaster?

Lin Ye couldn't figure it out, couldn't see clearly.

He was, after all, from an unconventional background, without proper destiny inheritance.

“Perhaps, I should go ask the Elves,” Lin Ye said.

In response, the Snake-Human Clan began to discuss.

“Do you think Lord Lin Ye is reliable?” (Whispering)

“Hard to say, after all, he's unconventional; I've never heard of anyone in the galaxy being good at divination.” (Whispering)

“Exactly, exactly.” (Whispering)

“Your Majesty, for such a major matter, we must thoroughly inquire with the Elf Race.” (Loudly)

“There are no trifles before the nation; such a major matter concerning the entire race cannot be taken lightly.”

“I agree to inquire, just to be at ease.”

Most of these Snake-Humans actually thought Lin Ye was unreliable, after all, whose divination uses all sorts of methods?

That was too unprofessional.

But since he was a superior, face still had to be given.

Diana nodded; she felt it was better to be prepared, even though she didn't entirely trust Lin Ye.

Since the Star Gate opened, the Snake-Human Clan, unlike other races, did not require long Wars and integration with Star Gate races.

As soon as they entered the Star Gate, relying on their beauty and superb medical skills, they were welcomed by the Elf Race.

The Elf Race loves beautiful things, simply put, they are all about appearances, and they love peace, so getting along with them is incredibly simple—just be handsome and have no ill intentions.

So Diana still didn't quite believe it.

Under Diana's arrangement, a team of Snake-Human Clan envoys was dispatched to the Elf Race.

Lin Ye received the highest level of hospitality, awaiting the results from the envoys.

During this time, he naturally couldn't avoid being harassed by the open-minded Snake-Humans.

Especially that Snake-Human succubus who handled diplomacy, Mei Mo, she truly had no regard for her reputation, being incredibly bold.

Lin Ye stated that it was still too low-level; with his strong willpower, resisting the mere Snake-Human's charm was too simple.

He also noticed her intentions; she was trying to compete with him.

Mei Mo—the Snake-Human Clan's Foreign Minister. Skilled in charm, she even changed her name to Mei Mo to be closer to the Succubus race.

Since her debut, she had been unstoppable with her pure and seductive appearance and excellent charm skills, which made her arrogant, believing that all males were her subjects. But now she had met her match.

At first, this person had to clench her legs tightly when facing him, not even daring to straighten her back.

But now, no matter how much she charmed, he remained unresponsive, like an impotent man.

No, even women would be charmed by her, how could he not fall for it?

Mei Mo was utterly perplexed.

Lin Ye stated that if your willpower was strengthened, you wouldn't be afraid of charm either.
