Chapter 840: Chapter 837 Divination Master

Once again having this suspicion was because of that peace charm. After Lin Tian saw the peace charm, he realized that among the people he knew, only the Demon Exorcism Girl could draw talismans, of course, along with her unlucky senior brother.

However, that unlucky senior was seriously injured, whether he has recovered is still unknown, and besides, he has no reason to do this.

"So what if you’ve been to Japan? So what if you haven’t? Do you really think I’m that Demon Exorcism Girl?" Unexpectedly, Zhang Lingyu didn’t avoid the question but instead asked Lin Tian in return.

Lin Tian slightly furrowed his brows. Zhang Lingyu’s response was flawless; he thought there would be some traces. Who knew the little girl would ask back. If Zhang Lingyu isn’t the Demon Exorcism Girl, then where did the talisman inside the peace charm come from?

"What’s the deal with the peace charm? How do you explain it?" Lin Tian asked again.

"Ha, so you’re suspicious of me just because of the peace charm I gave Xuanxuan?" Zhang Lingyu laughed.

"Xuanxuan can’t tell, but do you think I can’t? That peace charm is far from ordinary; I can sense the energy waves on it." Lin Tian said directly, without hiding his ability to perceive the peace charm.

Zhang Lingyu was shocked, unable to believe it. "You can sense the energy waves?"

"What, you’ve been exposed, right? Admit the peace charm was made by you." Lin Tian laughed, saying. He deliberately revealed his ability to sense energy waves, just to see Zhang Lingyu’s reaction, and the little girl indeed fell into the trap.

Zhang Lingyu seemed to know Lin Tian’s intention, shaking her head and saying solemnly, "No, I can swear by my heart, the talisman inside the peace charm wasn’t drawn by me."

She didn’t draw it? Lin Tian looked at Zhang Lingyu’s serious expression, once again confused. If Zhang Lingyu swore to the heavens or the gods and buddhas, Lin Tian wouldn’t believe such a vow at all.

Such vows are something only sentimental women would believe in; none have ever seen anyone punished for breaking such vows. Don’t mention whether there are gods or buddhas in this world, whether they’d punish those who break vows. Even if there are, the gods and buddhas wouldn’t care about the vows of a mere human.

What is a god? What is a buddha? No one has seen them, but it can be known that such advanced beings would surely treat humans like ants, capable of flipping a hand to destroy the world.

Would a person care about the vow of an ant? Similarly, such advanced beings, gods or buddhas, would care about a human’s vow? So, swearing is no different than farting.

But there is one exception, the vow of a cultivator, whether an Ancient Martial Artist or a Demon Exorcist. These cultivators swear by their heart, such vows cannot be disregarded.

A cultivator swearing by their heart is akin to planting a seed in their soul. If they break the vow in the future, this seed will become a Heart Demon.

When a cultivator reaches a crucial moment of breakthrough, disturbing their mental state, the consequence is, at best, injury; at worst, falling in rank and never advancing in cultivation, unable to elevate their realm.

When Lin Tian was exchanging knowledge on Ancient Martial Arts with Miss, she once mentioned these matters very seriously, warning Lin Tian not to swear falsely by their heart.

Lin Tian believes in this theory. Ordinary people may feel guilty when unable to fulfill a vow; for a cultivator, such guilt is magnified and becomes a Heart Demon.

If Zhang Lingyu is a Huaxia Demon Exorcist, why does she use tarot cards for divination? Tarot cards are Western divination tools. If a Huaxia Demon Exorcist can divine, they should use items like coins or tortoise shells.

Of course, Lin Tian is only guessing, he doesn’t understand how Demon Exorcists divine. Speculating further, he’s more puzzled, unable to determine Zhang Lingyu’s identity. A veil of mystery shrouds her, only she knows her identity.

"Zhang Lingyu, the Demon Exorcism Girl I know always carries three items: the Demon-suppressing Whip, the White Tiger Seal, and talisman paper. Do you dare let me search you?" Lin Tian thought about it and realized only these three items could prove Zhang Lingyu’s identity.

Zhang Lingyu looked at him warily and snorted, "I won’t let a big pervert like you search me, trying to take advantage of me, no way!"

"Forget it, we don’t need to search, I was just scaring you. Last time I helped you heal, I saw everything; you don’t have those three items." Lin Tian laughed, recalling the alluring healing session vividly.

Speaking of the healing session, Zhang Lingyu’s face slightly reddened. She glared at Lin Tian fiercely and angrily said, "You... if you dare talk about that, I’ll... I’ll kill you!"

"Sigh, such a beautiful girl, always talking about killing, how bad." Lin Tian sighed deliberately.

"Since you won’t admit to being that Demon Exorcism Girl, I won’t ask anymore, alright? But you played a tarot game and gave Xuanxuan a peace charm; you need to explain that. As her bodyguard, I have a right to know." Lin Tian gave up probing Zhang Lingyu’s identity, turning instead to inquire about the peace charm.

"Don’t say it’s an ordinary peace charm, I can see it’s not ordinary. Your previous tone indirectly admitted it’s not a simple peace charm." Lin Tian added.

Zhang Lingyu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and then said, "I can’t tell you about other things, but I can tell you this. Take a look at this."

She seemed unwilling to hide, pulling out a business card from her pocket and handing it to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian took it curiously. It was a black, square business card. On the right half was a faint golden hexagram array, surrounded by intricate patterns. On the left half was printed Zhang Lingyu’s name, and below that was her identity: Fourth Rank One Star Tarot Student.

"What is this thing?" Lin Tian wondered. He thought such business cards were mysterious and didn’t bother to think about it.

"Do you think I’m being mysterious?" Zhang Lingyu shook her head and laughed. "Not just anyone can have this kind of card. The hexagram array and patterns are anti-counterfeiting marks. If you want to confirm its authenticity, you can go to an official agency for verification."

"So you’re really a Tarot Master? But what does Fourth-stage One-star Tarot Student mean? Is it very advanced or quite ordinary?" Lin Tian returned the card to her, asking in confusion.

"Let me explain. Tarot Divination Masters have a total of eleven stages, stage one being the lowest and stage eleven the highest. Does that make sense?" Zhang Lingyu explained.

"I understand a bit, you’re fourth stage, which means you’re not very advanced. But what does the one-star student mean?" Lin Tian remarked indifferently.
