"Honestly, I don't think there is anything we can do besides hope for the best." Feng Yuxiang shrugged.
"It's not like we have to find him. I came here mostly because I was curious about the Demons' Valley. If we don't find him in the next few days, we can just leave." Yuan said.
"Okay."
"We should split up to make things faster." Feng Yuxiang suggested.
"Are you sure?" Yuan asked, as he was worried that something might happen to them.
"Young Master, we'll be fine. There are only magical beasts roaming in this place and there are rarely any that fly. If we encounter a demon, we'll notify you immediately."
"If you say so." Yuan nodded.
Thus, Yuan and the others began wandering the Demons' Valley randomly in search of Jia Chong.
Two days later, right as Yuan prepared to log off for breakfast, Feng Yuxiang's voice resounded inside his head, "Young Master, I found him!"
"That's great! Where are you?"
"If you continue flying north for about 200 miles, you will reach us," she said.
"I understand. I will be there as soon as possible."
Yuan logged off the game and notified Chu Liuxiang that he will be missing breakfast today before returning to the game and making his way towards Feng Yuxiang.
A few hours later, Yuan met up with Feng Yuxiang and Lan Yingying, who had arrived shortly before him.
"Where's Jia Chong?" Yuan asked them.
Feng Yuxiang pointed at a certain location on the ground. Yuan followed her direction until he could see an old man wearing rags about a mile away.
"Is it just me or is there something off about him?" Yuan raised his eyebrows after seeing the dazed expression on the old man's face.
"He's giving me the same feeling as the residents at the nameless town." Feng Yuxiang said.
"So he's gone crazy as well?" Yuan frowned slightly.
"Most likely. He probably spent a little too long in the Demons' Valley and got affected by the miasma. Now he's just aimlessly wandering this place."
"Is there anything we can do to help him?" Yuan asked.
"Well... We can try cleansing the miasma from his body, but I won't be able to do it since my flames can only protect people from being affected by the miasma."
Feng Yuxiang turned to look at Lan Yingying and continued, "But perhaps Yingying can do it with her divine attribute Sacred Fire."
"Do you think you can do it?" Yuan asked her.
"I can try."
"Alright, let's go down there and see if he's really lost his mind first."
They descended a moment later and approached Jia Chong from behind.
"Excuse me. Are you okay?" Yuan asked him.
Jia Chong stopped moving and turned around to look at Yuan, still with a dazed look on his face.
"Ooooh... This... This must be fate!" The old man suddenly snapped out of his daze and began staring at Yuan with a profound expression on his face.
"Huh? Fate?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.
"Yes! I can sense it! Your fate is extremely strong! So strong that even I cannot fathom it! You have the strongest fate out of all my encounters!"
"My name is Jia Chong, a servant of fate! Tell me, what do you desire?"
Yuan looked at Feng Yuxiang and said, "He looks perfectly fine..."
"I don't know. It's almost as though the miasma stopped affecting him after seeing you..." Feng Yuxiang mumbled in a dumbfounded voice.
"Anyways, I am looking for someone that can help me remove Destiny Seals." Yuan said to Jia Chong, acting like he didn't know what Jia Chong was capable of to make it seem like their encounter was purely by chance.
"Destiny Seal, huh? Our encounter must definitely be due to fate." Jia Chong nodded to himself.
"On top of being a servant of fate, I happen to be an Array Master as well. I can help you remove the Destiny Seals if you want."
"Really? You'll do that for me? How much do you need? I will pay for your services."
"No need. I cannot possibly accept money from someone with such a powerful fate."
"Is that so... Then I won't be humble. Thank you, Senior Jia." Yuan immediately began dumping out all of the Gu Family's treasures.
He wasn't worried that Jia Chong might steal his treasures since Jia Chong is only a first level Spirit King and there were three of them.
"There's more treasures than I'd expected..." Jia Chong smiled after seeing the small mountain of treasures before him.
"I won't complain even if you ask for a payment..." Yuan said.
"No, it's fine."
Jia Chong didn't say anything else and took a seat before the treasures.
He then began creating array symbols at a fast pace.
Yuan watched Jia Chong work with intensive focus, making sure to memorize all of the symbols that he'd used and the order he combined them.
It took about two minutes for Jia Chong to remove a Destiny Seal, and after an hour of non-stop work, he'd manage to clean all of the treasures of their Destiny Seal.
"I am finished." Jia Chong said as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"Thank you very much, Senior Jia." Yuan bowed to him afterward.
"No need. It was a pleasure to assist you, young man."
"You can call me Yuan."
Jia Chong nodded, "Then Yuan, I have one last thing for you."
He retrieved a scroll and offered it to Yuan.
"What is this?" Yuan raised his eyebrow.
"This is the array combination for removing Destiny Seals. If you learn it, you will be able to remove Destiny Seals yourself."
"A-Are you sure? This is very valuable, right?" Jia Chong nodded and said, "You have already paid the price."
"Eh? How?"
"I have traversed this world in search of someone like you, and after 2,000 years, I have finally found you. You have no idea what this encounter means to me, Yuan." Jia Chong said with a smile..
