Gu Zhiqi paid no attention to Chubby Chiu, continuing to suck on her milk tea.
Speaking of arrays, Chubby Chiu was reminded of the Heartless Curse on Gu Huaijin’s body.
"Eh? Zhizhi, I just remembered something. Since the female protagonist is a Mystic Master, she should have noticed the Yang Sha cast on Gu Huaijin, right? Why do you think she didn’t make a move?"
In the plot, there was no mention of Gu Huaijin being afflicted with a curse.
Neither was there any mention of Luo Fenghe.
Not even a hint of a romantic storyline for Gu Huaijin.
Hearing Chubby Chiu’s confusion, Gu Zhiqi’s expression did not change much, and she calmly said to it, "Didn’t you say earlier that a conservative estimate would put the female lead at Fourth-order Mystic Master?"
Chubby Chiu responded, "I did say that."
"The Heartless Curse is an evil technique that transcends ranks, and it takes a Fourth-order or higher Mystic Master to detect it."
The Heartless Curse was one of the rare evil techniques that could transcend ranks.
The one who cast the curse only needed to possess the ability of a Fourth-order Mystic Master, yet it required a Fifth-order Mystic Master to resolve it.
As Chubby Chiu listened to Gu Zhiqi’s explanation, it emotionally exclaimed, "If it weren’t for you, Gu Huaijin would probably have to live and die alone, and our sister-in-law would have died young and beautiful."
Although it had followed Gu Zhiqi for quite some time, when it came to Mysticism, it still had blind spots, and the Heartless Curse happened to be one of them.
"Are there really no Fourth-order or above Mystic Masters in this world?" Gu Zhiqi recalled that Chubby Chiu had mentioned something like "there won’t be any Fourth-order or above Mystic Masters in this world" before.
"I have looked through all the information on this world. Except for an Eighth Order Mystic Master who appeared a hundred years ago and whose existence is uncertain, there have been no Mystic Masters above Fourth-order ever since. Unless there’s some hidden master, one not recorded in the annals of history; otherwise, it’s impossible," Chubby Chiu earnestly told Gu Zhiqi, "Also, just like the incomplete cultivation techniques given to you by that beauty, their lineage also has gaps, making Fourth-order the limit one can cultivate to."
Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi fell silent for a moment.
"You mentioned last time that there are loopholes in this world, is that what you were talking about?" Recalling Chubby Chiu’s previous mention of loopholes in this world, Gu Zhiqi casually asked.
Upon hearing Gu Zhiqi’s question, Chubby Chiu was silent for several seconds before speaking somewhat uneasily, "Whatever the loopholes are, they have nothing to do with us. As the female protagonist of this world, she will definitely take care of such matters, so let’s not bother with it. Let’s just complete our mission and return to Aquamarine Star as soon as possible."
Gu Zhiqi, listening to Chubby Chiu’s words, slightly raised her eyebrows but did not pursue the matter further.
Remembering that Chubby Chiu had just brought up the incomplete cultivation techniques, Gu Zhiqi opened Su Yunling’s message window and sent her all the cultivation techniques she had matched from Chubby Chiu’s database.
[Child: Complete cultivation technique]
As soon as Gu Zhiqi sent the message, Su Yunling replied.
[Su Yunling: That was quick?]
Looking at the message from Su Yunling, Gu Zhiqi raised her eyebrows. Naturally, she couldn’t tell him that these techniques were scavenged from Chubby Chiu’s database.
If she had to complete them on her own, it would take at least ten days to half a month.
Gu Zhiqi hadn’t replied when Su Yunling sent another message.
[Su Yunling: Your current address, please]
[Child: Something up?]
[Su Yunling: Sending a thank-you gift]
Gu Zhiqi looked at the message, silent for a few seconds, then typed two words in response.
After some thought, she typed out another line of text.
[Child: If you really want to thank me, just give money]
[Su Yunling: Forget it, I’ll give it to you when we meet next time]
Gu Zhiqi didn’t send another message to Su Yunling because the snacks she ordered had just arrived.
