Fortune-telling

This is what Long Chen has to say about fortune telling (he is putting on a show):
== Fate ==
"Fate contains the mysteries of the innate world and the consequences of the will. With the two of them merged, with the five spirits of heaven, earth, man, god, and ghost as the foundation, with the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth as the transformation, there are innumerable possibilities. Even immortals and gods have no way to grasp the form of fate.
LC claims to have found this knowledge ancient ruin within the Immemorial Path pertaining to reading the future. The future is constantly changing, and it involves all things within heaven and earth. The fundamental movement of the cosmos can change things. Even gods and immortals are helpless when it comes to this.
"The so-called laws and fortunes of heaven and earth are split into Yin and Yang. On their own, Yin cannot live, and Yang cannot grow. The reason you are confused is because you only see one side of things, while you are blind to the other side. That's why the things you see are always the things you want to see, but are not necessarily the true essence of things.
== Fortune telling ==
"As for the heaven-peering art, it is nothing more than some people peeking at the slightest thread of the will of the Heavenly Daos. All they do is generalize from that tiny little bit. Calculating the future is the opposite of looking into the past. Looking into the past is easier, because you use the consequences to calculate the reasons. Of course, such a thing is useless. But when it comes to predicting the future, even just making a prediction will cause a slight change. By using the present to calculate the future, you have created a new future, one that will be different from the old future.
LC says fortune-tellers are all swindlers. No one can accurately tell a person's future. That's also why people often say man proposes, but god disposes.
== Face reading ==
When it comes to fortune-telling, nothing anyone says is reliable. But LC says he is quite proficient at reading faces, palms and bones.
In accordance with the saying that the appearance is born from the heart, the face is the most important part. Even people without face-reading abilities can guess a person's general character and morality by looking at their face. However, there are countless transformations and changes that are not innate, and so reading just the face is destined to just be a basic examination. It cannot be fully trusted.
But the palms are shaped at birth, and the palm lines are essentially set. They do not change in life. But the faint changes in their color and the slight trends within it can allow one to see the possibilities for the future. 
After 2 hours of holding Hua Shiyu's hands, LC concludes that her palms are nice.
