Jessica was filled with shock. “You had a girlfriend? And you were getting married? Coming across you is probably the worst thing that can happen to any woman!”
“I wasn’t like this back then. In fact, I was very loyal to my then-girlfriend. I only became who I am today after she left me. She made me realize I can’t trust women. Instead, I should just treat them as toys,” Flaxseed explained. Jessica wasn’t happy when she heard Flaxseed refer to women as toys.
“Mr. Flaxseed, although you’re speaking ill of that fellow, he managed to find his way here, didn’t he? It seems like this Art of Deduction of his is rather useful,” Jared uttered. After all, I had to use the map from Demon Sect to find this place. Yet, Hank found it by solely relying on his deduction.
“Pfft! What’s so useful about it? This has to be a manifestation of a ten-thousand-year herb. A manifestation of such a herb will surely trigger all sorts of strange happenings. As long as I’m nearby, I can also tell what’s going on.
There’s nothing impressive about it. Heck, even if I’m a hundred miles away, I can still locate ancient ruins underground. It’s the same thing! If he really could comprehend Heavenly Law and deduce the future, he would’ve become ant immortal being.” Flaxseed’s face was filled with disdain.
Jared realized Flaxseed had a point. Sometimes, I can’t help but admire Mr. Flaxseed’s capability.
“Mr. Flaxseed, what’s the deduction of the future about? Also, how could you tell the location of ancient ruins? How do you feel the manifestation of such magical herbs?” Jared was intrigued.
“What’s the matter? Are you interested in learning it?” Flaxseed asked with a smug expression on his face.
“Yes. We can always learn the good qualities of others, can’t we? If you teach me the Art of Deduction, I’ll teach you about spells…” Jared was afraid that Flaxseed wouldn’t teach him, so he offered the knowledge of spells.
“Let me ask you something. If someone nearby is getting ready to kill you, will you be able to sense it?” Flaxseed asked Jared. “Of course. I can immediately sense danger.” Jared nodded. “How do you do that, then?” Flaxseed continued. querying.
This time around, Jared had trouble coming up with the answer. With a frown, he replied, “I’m not sure. It’s just that over time, my body will instinctively react to dangerous auras. I don’t know how to explain it!”
“Well, let me explain it to you. When someone wants to kill you, a murderous aura will appear in that person’s body. When that aura creeps into the air, you’ll know danger is around the corner. Hence, your body will respond to it. If an ordinary person without a hint of hostility were to walk past you, you wouldn’t feel the presence of danger.
This sort of murderous aura isn’t concealable. If you intend to kill someone, your body will exude murderous intent, right? No matter how hard you try to hide it, a good fighter can still detect your murderous intent. In terms of Heavenly Law, it works similarly to how a person is exuding their aura.
Heavenly Law is the law of nature. If you see Heavenly Law as a person, you can sense the aura it exudes! You can tell if it’s happy, sad, or about to kill. That’s how Heavenly Law works. You need to understand the existence of Heavenly Law.
Once you’ve done that, you’ll be able to sense all the tiny changes all around the world. In fact, you’ll even be able to tell when an ant has died. In other words, you’ll be the ruler of the world!
So, when a ten-thousand-year herb manifests, you don’t need to fully comprehend Heavenly Law to notice it. All you need to do is sense the changes in the environment,” Flaxseed explained in detail, but he didn’t know if Jared could fully understand what he just said. In truth, Flaxseed himself also hadn’t fully understood the principles of Heavenly Law.
