Chapter 161 - 161 161 A Flower Has Been Planted

161: Chapter 161: A Flower Has Been Planted 161: Chapter 161: A Flower Has Been Planted “Five million, I’ll save you,” Gu Zhiqi said nonchalantly as she looked at Y.

She didn’t even need to tell his fortune to identify the problem with Y as soon as she saw him.

Another one with a sealed talent, another with a flower planted inside his body.

A wonder if he’s not dead yet.

However, this wasn’t an issue any ordinary Diviner could resolve.

Y looked at Gu Zhiqi’s disheveled and indolent demeanor; she seemed unreliable no matter how he looked at her.

Suddenly, he began to doubt whether this young girl saw him as an easy dupe and was trying to swindle his money.

But after a second thought, Y dismissed the idea from his mind.

After all, this young girl had successfully verified herself as a Diviner on the Mysterious Sect’s platform and even got 007 to advertise for her; she was unlikely to be a mere con artist.

“Um…

can you really save me?” Y hesitated for a few seconds before tentatively asking Gu Zhiqi.

In fact, he had sought out trustworthy uncles and seniors from his Master’s Sect for fortune-telling, but they only told him he was going to die and couldn’t find a glimmer of hope for him.

Out of desperation, he decided to throw caution to the wind and searched for a Diviner on the Mysterious Sect’s platform.

He intended to browse the Mysterious Sect’s forum for a reliable Diviner, but coincidentally, he stumbled upon the promotion post by 007.

Zhezhi.

When he saw this name, he felt as if there was an inexplicable pull, as if destiny was leading him to Zhezhi.

People from the Mysterious Sect are the most convinced by these ineffable hunches.

So, without a second thought, he sought out Zhezhi.

Unlike others, Zhezhi didn’t tell him straight away that there was no hope; instead, she arranged to meet with him and didn’t pronounce a death sentence, which meant there still might be a sliver of hope.

And so, he became excited.

He was so excited that he could not sleep.

He didn’t sleep at all until one in the morning, so he decided not to sleep and instead traveled to Yueqi Village overnight.

Driven by that mysterious pull, Y had been excited since the previous night until just a while ago.

But when he learned that Gu Zhiqi was Zhezhi, the thrill suddenly disappeared.

She just looked too young and altogether unreliable.

Yet now, this unreliable young girl claimed she could save him?!

“If you don’t believe me, you can place an order on the Mysterious Sect’s platform,” Gu Zhiqi said lazily without bothering to explain further.

Now that Gu Zhiqi had put it that way, it would be unreasonable for Y not to believe her.

So, Y started to think that maybe, just maybe, this young girl could really cure him.

Perhaps this young girl only looked youthful, but was in fact an ancient master who had cultivated for hundreds of years.

With a mixture of apprehension and anticipation, Y looked at Gu Zhiqi and asked, “Um, Master, can I ask what’s wrong with me?”

A month ago, he started experiencing dizziness which he initially dismissed, but as the frequency of the dizziness increased, he had a senior from his Master’s Sect who understood medicine to take his pulse, who then told him he was dying, with less than two months to live, yet couldn’t specify the cause.

Later, he went to the hospital for examinations, hoping to harness the power of modern medicine, but the doctors found nothing, only mentioning that his cells were rapidly mutating, and at this rate, he would die within two months.

The seniors in his Master’s Sect also divined for him but could only determine that he was going to die, not the cause, nor could they find a lifeline.

Therefore, he was really curious about what exactly was wrong with him.

“You have a flower planted inside your body,” Gu Zhiqi replied languidly.

Y: ?

“Huh?” Y was baffled again.
