Chapter 689: Chapter 689 – Psychic!
Chapter 689: Psychic!
Overturn Quest was a top-class clan quest that was considered a top secret, and Happy had received it from the Murong Clan .
Oh no, instead of saying that it was a clan quest, it would be better to say that the current clan master and a few grand elders had given Happy a secret quest .
It was not recorded in the clan quest system!
Besides, this quest was one he received after he started practicing Shifting Stars, and he received it when night arrived in a desert somewhere that even Happy did not know .
Three old men with a noble and stern air who held the Murong Clan Master’s letter and authenticating tokens; and whose strength might not lose to that of the two Dharma protectors of the mighty northern clan had appeared in front of Happy .
At that time, he had been very shocked . If it were not for the fact that he could not sense any killing intent from the trio, he might have fled unthinkingly the moment he noticed the three monsters approach him .
Time proved that it would have been wiser to flee at that time . Heck, he might have even made the right decision in doing so .
The Overturn Quest requested Happy to activate the legendary Eunuch Yang’s Warehouse and bring back a large portion of its resources, which was the most important thing inside .
The quest was not only in conflict with the goal of the protagonist of Twin of Brothers, but also made enemies of Li Shimin, Du Fuwei, Kind Boathouse, the entire evil cult, and even the imperial court, which was everywhere in the game .
If Happy was frank, the quest made him the enemy of the entire world .
Hence, once he arrived in Yangzhou, the first thing he did was not to carry out the quest, but to do something that was completely unrelated to the quest, such as drinking wine .
But what he did not expect was that the damn quest would actually come knocking at his door .
Once he entered the restaurant, Qing Yuan appeared, and Hou Xibai also showed up . In the end, even the Twin Demons turned up . Later on, familiar faces showed up one after another . There was Wan Wan, Shi Feixuan, Yang Xuyan, and even Empress Yin .

There were also a few insanely powerful elites who did not show up!
‘Why is my life so difficult?’
Mu Clan controlled a large territory in the Chinese server, officially monopolized Sky Demon Secret Cave, a few of the territories that were originally stuck between the four top-class sects had also fallen into their hands, so they had officially become the strongest power in the game .
But Happy felt that the areas where he could move around with ease had been reduced .
He could no longer get experience from most regions, which was the disadvantage of breaking into Moksha Realm before everyone else .
It was very difficult for Happy to get experience from NPCs below Moksha Realm, and he could not even get decent loot from them .
Once the level of his martial arts increased, he could not get experience even from Moksha Realm NPCs, but there were not many Inaction Realm NPCs in the world . At the very least, there were currently no Inaction Realm NPCs who appeared in groups .
Quests…
At the end of the day, Happy had to return to quests . If he did not carry out quests, it was impossible for him to find a place to train for a few days with peace in his mind, just like before . Some of the NPCs began running away while screaming once they saw him attack, so there was no meaning in training with them at all .
He did not gain any progress in his training . Instead, he was falling behind .
If it were not because Happy have a lot of experience from his previous life, his qi might have remained the same over the past half a month .
But now that he had accepted the quest, Happy could not help but drink alcohol to forget about his problems . He also sulked . ‘Those stupid old men! I’ve been practicing so hard for more than a year, and you threaten to cripple me so that I can’t practice martial arts anymore?!’
If it were not for the threat from the insanely powerful old men from the Murong Clan, Happy might have already turned a blind eye to the quest . But now, after leaving Yangzhou City a set amount of distance or by not interfering when he ran into the quest, he might anger those stupid old men hidden in the dark, and he would bring unecessary trouble to himself .

If they took away his Shifting Stars and Joined Finger, his qi would decrease by a full forty to fifty points, and he would lose two ultimate techniques . What was more terrifying was that his status and all that he had accumulated in the Murong Clan would also disappear .
The merciless old men were not as amiable as the clan leader or the Murong Clan Lady . In their eyes, it was only logical to use all the resources they could use and sacrifice all the leverage they could sacrifice in their path to resurrect the Great Yan Dynasty .
Coincidentally, Happy’s current strength and status in the world of martial arts could help them do certain things .
*****
The stern system notification rose beside Happy’s ears at that moment . “Warning! You are already a certain distance away from Yangzhou City! If you do not wish to fail the quest, please return to Yangzhou City immediately . You have ten minutes left . ”
“Alright, you win . ”
Just as Happy expected, he received a notification from the system . He rolled his eyes helplessly and turned around . He did not stop for even a moment on his way back, because he was indeed a little far away from Yangzhou City .
While in Yangzhou City, Happy still held the pot of wine he brought out from the restaurant as he sat alone at the riverbank and drank in boredom . He watched the ships and boats pass him by .
But soon, a Taoist who looked like an immortal and held a white flag with the words Divine Iron-mouthed Predictor walked to the riverbank . He occasionally shouted, “Those who want to have a promotion to become rich, who want to have children, who want to live longer, who want to have great fortune and avoid trouble, and those who are lost, come and have your fortune told!
“I am Divine Iron-mouthed Predictor, and if my words don’t come true, I will not ask for money . ”
He redirected his gaze, and his eyes landed on the young man who ignored his words and continued drinking on the slope . He gasped softly and stopped for a moment before he turned and walked to him .
“Young master—”
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a loud thud, and a pot of wine shattered beside his feet . The diviner was so shocked that he quickly came to a stop, but before he could scold the youth, a piece of silver landed by his feet .
“Don’t bother me while I’m drinking . I don’t have time to listen to you . ”
The diviner who looked like an immortal scowled, but he suddenly looked around, and when he discovered that there was no one around him, he quickly bent his waist . With a speed that even martial artists could not hope to achieve, he grabbed the silver from the ground and stuffed it into the bag on his shoulder .
“Hehe, it seems that I have been rude . ”
This action instantly destroyed his image of someone wise and holy . But since he was too quick, once he completed his actions, he immediately put on airs again and regained his previous disposition . He looked away and continued walking forward .
“Stay where you are . ”
When Happy saw that the diviner was about to leave once he took the money, he called out to him . Under the diviner’s shocked gaze, he lifted the hem of his robe and stood up from the slope before he patted his bottom in the face of the gradually setting sun in the distance .
“Since I’m free, you might as well read my fortune . ”
“Oh, what do you want to know, young master—”
“My fate with fortunem” Happy said the words he had prepared since a long time ago .
The diviner was slightly stunned, then he said without hesitation, “Young master, you must be joking . You view money as nothing, and your troubles are not beside you . These worldly items come and go at your beck and call . Your fate with fortune is not just great, it has already reached a stage where it goes against destiny, and no one can ever hope to reach your level . ”
“What do you mean?”
“What I mean is that your fate with fortune entirely depends on your thoughts . A normal person will not be able to read it . ”
Happy frowned .
‘He’s a psychic!’

Starlight Antiquities
There is a place in the galaxy that deals in antiquities of all kinds, human and non-human alike. Its inventory of artifacts is colossal as is its inventory of mercs who they hire to acquire any artifact a client may wish that is yet to come into their possession. The ill-reputable business is constantly rubbing against the changing tolerance of the Union's government, and there are many security officers who would love nothing better than to vaporize the whole place with its owners inside. Yet, there are many tasks that nobody can do better, especially in the vastness of deep space where Union law is worth less than the energy needed to display it. One of its jobs involves finding an artifact that may not only hold the future of the human race but may also disturb the balance of the whole galaxy. *** While waiting for the next season of Mandalorian and the Witcher, and rewatching Firefly for the gazillionth of time, I decided to write this space-based series. The series has some litRPG elements in it, but it does not read like one. So, you won't run into any blue screens here. Yet, I wanted to use litRPG to give another dimension to this whole story and make it as unique as possible. This is a work-in-progress. Hope to keep on improving and fixing my mistakes as I go along.
