The old man was a divinator.
Lin Wanyi invited him the hermit expert to come out but he didn't agree. This was because he divined the future and the ex-Imperial Dynasty wouldn't return to their past glory.
Moreover, he divined that Lin Wanyi would face problems, and if he followed by his side, he might be implicated.
Of course, he couldn't expose the secrets of the heavens, otherwise, he would have to take the blame for it.
Thus, he came out to search for the person who the heavens favored.
If Lin Wanyi knew that the divinator left right after to find another place, he would have probably punched his head. Didn't you tell me you were going to hide in the forests and mountains and farm for the rest of your life?
Who would even believe you?
Zhang Tianshan was filled with regret, "If you can't answer it, then Sect Leader won't meet you. I think you should just leave. This place isn't suitable for you."
