Chapter 337: A Pill
Gǔyán Wasn't that Gǔrúlong's chief disciple I heard he was an orphan adopted by Gǔrúlong many years ago. The two were as close as father and son!""No wonder Venerable Gulong is so furious... But I hea..."Two million in pure income...that's impressive," the man said in surprise.
"Who let this master predict it so accurately" the woman said.
"Master... you had her predict yours too" the man asked.
"Yes, but you don't need to ask about the content. I can only tell you that the result is very accurate." The woman said, raising a glass filled with high-grade wine and taking a small sip.
Just as the two were talking, the fortune teller in the center of the dance floor looked around at the guests, her brows furrowed slightly, her expression seeming a little impatient.
Besides a martial artist who arrived half an hour ago, everyone else around her were ordinary people. This made her feel somewhat disgusted.
Her true purpose for coming to have her fortune told was not to make money.
Even if you gave these worldly people all the money in the world, she would have no interest whatsoever.
At this moment, the woman suddenly felt a strange sensation, and her face changed slightly.
She looked ahead, her gaze fixed on Fang Yu at the back of the crowd.
She was separated from Fang Yu by several layers of people, theoretically unable to see each other.
But their spiritual consciousnesses met in the air, locking eyes.
"This is a warrior..."
A glimmer flashed in her eyes.
She stretched out her hand and gently tapped the table, and immediately the guests around her fell silent.
"Please make way for me."
The woman gestured for the group of guests ahead to move aside.
At the master's command, these guests naturally did not dare to neglect him and immediately made way.
At this time, the woman could see Fang Yu sitting in a booth in the distance.
"Sir, I can sense that you have many troubles. Would you like me to give you a reading It's free," the woman smiled.
Hearing the woman's words, the surrounding guests all turned to look at Fang Yu.
This person is not simple. They can proactively invite the master to give a divination, and it's free!
Fang Yu looked at the woman, his eyes narrowed slightly.
After a moment's thought, he stood up and walked straight toward the woman.
He naturally didn't believe in fortune-telling.
Putting aside the perspective of magic, from the standpoint of current scientific theory, fortune-telling about the future is also untenable.
But Fang Yu was very curious, why did this woman ignore all the wealthy guests around her and offer him a free fortune-telling session instead
Fang Yu walked to the woman's table and sat down.
After Fang Yu sat down, the woman picked up the deck of cards in front of her and began to shuffle them.
A moment later, she drew out three cards one by one and placed them before Fang Yu.
"Choose any card you like," the woman said.
"Don't you want to ask me what you should get a divination for" Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
"No, you just need to pick a card at random, and I can know your deepest desire." The woman said softly.
It appears quite convincing.
Fang Yu no longer spoke, reaching out to pick up a card.
The woman immediately took the card, glanced at it, and then stared straight at Fang Yu, saying: "You are a martial artist. What you desire most is to obtain endless power and become stronger..."
"Wait a minute." Fang Yu directly interrupted the woman's words, "I don't crave power."
The woman frowned slightly.
She can use this line on any warrior.
Because every martial artist inevitably wants to become stronger, no matter what realm they are in.
Only Fang Yu, who was at the innate realm, actually denied this point directly, which she hadn't expected.
All the guests around were staring at Fang Yu with wide eyes.
This kid interrupted the master's conclusion, and now he's directly denying it
Is he here to crash the party
"I told you, this is your truest desire deep inside. You may not even know it yourself," the woman said.
Upon hearing this, Fang Yu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Alright, go on."
The woman looked at Fang Yu, whose face was flirtatious, her expression somewhat gloomy.
But she still had to complete the task, could only hide her displeasure.
"I can offer you a way to become stronger, but you must maintain a sincere heart." The woman continued.
At the sound of this sentence, Fang Yu knew that the other party had gotten to the point.
"How can I become stronger" Fang Yu feigned interest.
Seeing Fang Yu take the bait, the woman's face softened considerably. "I have a pill in my hand," she said. "Just take it, and it will activate your martial arts potential, allowing you to reach your personal limit and become stronger."
"Oh Pills" Fang Yu's eyebrows raised.
"Yes," the woman said, reaching under the table with her hand and bringing it back up, now holding a jet-black pill.
She placed the pill before Fang Yu and said, "Take this pill back. Find a suitable time and place to swallow it, and your innermost desire will be fulfilled."
"Is this pill really that magical" Fang Yu picked up the pill and asked.
"I never lie," the woman said slowly, with an air of otherworldly serenity.
"What if this pill is poisoned" Fang Yu asked again.
Upon hearing this, the woman's brow furrowed.
And those guests around, at this time could no longer bear it, and began to denounce Fang Yu.
"Damn it! You little brat, don't be ungrateful! The master is compassionate and giving, offering you a free divination and even a free pill, and you still have so many questions"
"That's right! We all saw how accurate the master's divination was! How many people have come to get pills these past few days Don't even try to count, why are you questioning it"
"Whether you believe it or not, get up and leave! Don't waste everyone's time! We still have to do a divination!"
In the midst of the jeers, Fang Yu clenched the pill in his hand, glanced at the woman, and turned to leave the crowd.
“This kid acts like a naive fool Typical, takes advantage and acts innocent.” On the second-floor booth, the man stared at Fang Yu below, frowning.
"She's probably a college student," the woman said with a gentle smile. "Young people these days love to argue, but he'll eventually eat that pill."
……
The pills have been sent out, so the woman's task for today is complete.
The rest of the people present were all ordinary mortals without any martial arts foundation. There was no need to stay any longer.
The woman stood up and collected the playing cards from the table.
Those around him saw this and their faces turned pale with alarm.
"Master, won't you continue the divination" someone asked loudly.
"I'm getting a little tired, you guys should come back tomorrow." The woman said, slowly walking out of the bar.
Though these guests were impatient, they didn't dare to block the woman's path.
However, the way they looked at Fang Yu sitting on the couch became even more hostile.
It was this young student who wasted their divination slot.
The woman left the bar directly.
Fang Yu watched the woman's back, picked up the pill in his hand, and followed her out of the bar.
He walked, observing the pill in his hand.
There is another aura within this pill.
This aura does not belong to an inanimate object, it belongs to a living being!
That is to say, this pill was not refined from medicinal herbs.
Fang Yu thought for a moment, pinching the pill between his two fingers and pressing lightly.
The pill casing shattered easily under Fang Yu's grip.
Then Fang Yu saw what was inside the pill.
A curled-up black bug!
This worm looks kind of like an earthworm, but it's smaller and darker!
After the shell was crushed, it seemed frightened and suddenly twisted away from the ground.
It jumped into Fang Yu's hand, burrowing into the palm of his hand, as if trying to enter Fang Yu's body.
But it struggled desperately, unable to penetrate even a fraction.
Fang Yu caught the insect and observed it carefully.
It's obviously not a good thing.
Fang Yu could sense the aura of death and malice emanating from it.
From its appearance, this insect looks a bit like the soul-eating worms Fang Yu had seen before.
Soul Eaters, as the name suggests, are capable of consuming souls.
And that woman just said that after taking this pill, you'd be able to get stronger...
Fang Yu frowned slightly, thinking.
At that moment, inside the bar behind them, the faint aura that had been fluctuating erratically suddenly surged!
Fan Yu frowned.
Due to that so-called master, Fang Yu entered the bar and for a moment actually forgot about the strange aura that had prompted him to walk in.
Now, that aura has surged to its peak!
"I see."
Fang Yu instantly understood the effect of this pill and the woman's purpose.
"Wow!"
Fang Yu's fingertips rose a ball of true qi, instantly incinerating the worm.
Then, Fang Yu turned around and walked toward the bar.ard from Lord Wutian! Even Dao Kong Shangxian might bestow something upon you!" the man said, "This Fang Changsheng is our Halflings' number one enemy!" "A reward, I dare not even dream of... I merely...
