Chapter 457: The Number One Fortune Teller under the Heavens?

“Cheh…” There were dismissive boos from all around the restaurant. The nice movie the diners were privy to had ended and it was time to get back to eating and having conversations. Anyone could see that the fair maiden was just too lazy to be calculative towards the burly man. She was afraid of more trouble, so she simply threw a silver ingot at him to get some peace and quiet. What had any of that to do with this cheat here?

“Fifty percent off works too,” offered the cheat when he saw that no one was paying any attention to him.

This time, not even a single person bothered booing him.

“Young maiden, I know of things from five hundred years ago as well as what will come five hundred years later. I am the Iron Mouth And Divine Tooth Number One Fortune Teller Under The Heavens, Jiang Wuhen. I was fortunate that you lent me your helping hand earlier on. I can’t thank you enough for your great kindness. In return, how about I tell your fortune? Seventy percent off.” The cheat did not say a single word about the matter of Ling Chuxi’s obvious reason for giving away a silver ingot and continued trying to reel in business.

“You should tell your own fortune first and predict what the thing is that I hate the most.” Ling Chuxi gave her full attention to her food and did not even bother raising her head when she spoke.

The cheat choked back his words, feeling speechless.

“What I hate most is when people interrupt me and affect my mood while I am eating,” continued Ling Chuxi. Her mood was not too good and she did not want anyone cawing next to her ears while she was eating the first decent meal she’d had in a while.

After the cheat heard what Ling Chuxi said, he looked at the pieces of axe embedded in the floor and felt a slight guilty conscience.

“Hey, hey. I understand. Then, I will not disturb the both of you anymore. I will take my leave first,” said the cheat as he laughed with embarrassment and raised his banner, preparing to scoot. However, the moment the cheat turned his head, he saw that the burly man was not too far ahead and that he kept turning back to look his way from time to time with a fierce glare. He immediately halted his footsteps.

Now the cheat could not neither leave nor sit. So, he could only stand to one side and look on at Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen eating. His stomach made a slight rumbling sound.

“Young maiden, how about I tell your fortune for free?” The cheat offered his services once more. It was really torturous to watch other people eating while one was starving. It was especially more torturous watching a foodie like Ling Chuxi eat, because she was eating everything up so voraciously. Which was why the cheat swallowed his saliva and said something in hopes of diverting her attention away from her food.

But alas, Ling Chuxi could not be bothered by him.

“You guys are definitely not locals. You must have come to Ling Xi City to look for someone or some place. But you have not found it yet, have you? You have come here to look for help because there must be some emergency at your home right now. Most likely, someone in the family has fallen very sick or has sustained a heavy injury,” deduced the cheat as he looked at the both of them.

Ling Chuxi finally raised her head and looked the cheat up and down seriously. It was very easy to tell that the both of them were not locals. Would there be any locals who were this fatigued from a long journey like them? But the things the cheat has said after this initial observation gave Ling Chuxi a slight shock. Even though the fortune telling cheat somehow had the ability to examine people’s words and observe their expressions to make his predictions, she had not given him anything to go on. He could be considered a genius if he could figure out so many things without her saying anything.

Although this twenty-something year old man had an unattractive appearance, he was not ugly. He could be considered decent at most. The few bruises he had on his face stood out exceptionally. Although he was dressed quite luxuriously, it was obvious that the size of his clothing was not right for him. Ling Chuxi reckoned that he had stolen his garments off a clothing rail from someone else’s house in passing. He did have a bit of a cultivation background and was maybe at Battle Qi Level 3. Taking into consideration the customs of the people in Shang Yuan Country who upheld martial arts, even if it was in a town as rural as Shi Qu Town, such a cultivation level was considered to be very common. Still, Ling Chuxi deduced that his skills would definitely not be on par with hers and Ling Yichen.

Ling Chuxi looked carefully again at the cheat’s banner which read “Iron Mouth And Divine Tooth Number One Fortune Teller Under The Heavens”. Her conclusion was as such: the cheat was uncultured, and his writing was really ugly.

“How about that? I was right, wasn’t I?” said the cheat proudly.

“How did you figure that out?” asked Ling Chuxi, starting to take a slight interest in this cheat.

“What do you mean figure it out? I am the Iron Mouth And Divine Tooth Number One Fortune Teller Under The Heavens. I know about things from five hundred years ago and I know what is to come five hundred years after—” Rumble, rumble. The cheat was midway through his sentence when his stomach rumbled loudly a few times.
