Chandler laughed and said, "I've heard about the news of Ten Thousand Armies charging all the way to the Wade family's old mansion with coffins in the United States. So, I drew up a divination hexagram for you, and I realized that the hexagram was surprisingly an upper image of a dragon entering the sea. So, I knew that Ten Thousand Armies was definitely not your opponent.”
As Chandler spoke of this, he then added, "According t o my speculation, Ten Thousand Armies is not only not your opponent, but most importantly, it should also be the key to sending you, the dragon from the shallow waters, into the sea! If my guess is correct, you should have already become the head of the Wade family, right?"
Charlie could not help but ask in awe, "Old Master Lennard, your divination and fortune-telling skills are already so advanced? You can already tell that I've become the head of the Wade family simply through a hexagram? This is truly remarkable!"
"No, no, no...” Chandler said humbly, "I'm far from being as divine as you are, Young Master Wade. The hexagram can only reveal the general trend, but what kind of information that is contained therein still needs to be analyzed logically in conjunction with the actual situation."
As Chandler spoke, he then said again, "Back then, when we were up on Mount Wintry, I once told you that the reason why you fell to Aurous Hill back then was because of the dragon standing predicament. However, after the dragon encapsulation formation was broken, you had already lost the shackles that we spoke of. When I suggested that you return to Eastcliff, it was so that the dragon could enter and return to the sea. However, when Carvalho went to Aurous Hill the last time, it made me realize that you are still living in Aurous Hill."
"Yes." Charlie laughed and said, "I’ve been living in Aurous Hill for a long time, and I've already gotten used to it. I don’t want to move or change anything easily."
Chandler chuckled and said, "This time, the outside world is filled with rumors that the Wade family is going to suffer a great catastrophe. If the Wade family were to really fall in this manner, your hexagram would be that of a dragon stranding predicament, or even that of the fall of the heavenly dragon. However, your hexagram showed a great and auspicious illumination of the dragon entering the sea and so, I presume that the fact that Ten Thousand Armies was going after the Wade family would be a once-in-a-lifetime golden opportunity for you."
As Chandler spoke of this, he then said again, "I thought that although you have the fate of the True Dragon, Young Master Wade, it would not be that easy i f you really wanted to take charge and gain control over the Wade family in the absence of any external interference. As the saying goes, Rome was not built i n a day. The Wade family's business and wealth have been accumulated over the years, and the power and management structure of the family has been created over the years. Even the person with the strongest ability would need to figure it out slowly, and the only opportunity for you to attain everything that you want would be for you to defeat the attack of a powerful enemy. Therefore, based on the combination of this information, I speculated that you must have already become the head of the Wade family!"
Charlie was sincerely filled with admiration as he said, "Old Master Lennard, you not only possess extraordinary divination skill, but your ability in analyzing things logically is even more admirable!”
Chandler said, "Young Master Wade, you do not need t o praise me! I have already lived for a hundred and three years. I do not have many abilities, but I simply have more experience compared to others. I would not dare to show off in front of you at all!"
