Three minutes later, Gu Zhiqi received a file message from Fu Xiyan.
Gu Zhiqi looked down and as she read, her expression grew increasingly complicated.
This mental method could indeed establish a connection with the Dragon Chant Sword, but...
The technique was incomplete, just like the cultivation techniques Su Yunling had given her, which could only be cultivated to the peak of the fourth-order.
Fu Xiyan didn’t know Gu Zhiqi well enough, and his trust in her was based on her treatment of Tang Yichen, her good relationship with Su Yunling, and the fact that she had saved his life two days ago.
At the moment, seeing her , he simply thought the young lady realized the difficulty of establishing a connection with an auxiliary item.
"If you can’t establish a connection, it’s alright," Fu Xiyan said to Gu Zhiqi, his voice, usually cold, unexpectedly tinted with warmth.
Hearing Fu Xiyan’s tone, Tang Yichen looked up, finding it strange and gave Fu Xiyan a glance.
Tang Yichen understood Fu Xiyan quite well. Although Fu Xiyan was cold outside but warm inside, he was usually indifferent to people he wasn’t close to, sporting a cold and contemptuous facade.
Especially towards those young ladies, he never showed a good face, let alone spoke in such a gentle tone to a young lady.
Now, to be in such a good temper with Gu Xiaoxi...
Could it be he had taken a liking to Gu Xiaoxi?
Considering this possibility, Tang Yichen’s gaze towards Fu Xiyan suddenly changed.
Su Yunling showed no reaction to Fu Xiyan’s abnormal behavior toward Gu Zhiqi.
After all, he was aware of the child healing Fu Xiyan.
Besides, the child was indeed likable.
A long while after Fu Xiyan finished speaking, Gu Zhiqi did not respond, but kept scrolling through the mental method on her phone.
About five minutes later, Gu Zhiqi stopped scrolling and, with a somewhat serious expression, looked at Fu Xiyan and said, "How about we add another item to the deal?"
"There’s an issue with your mental method. For one billion, I’ll help you complete it."
Since Su Yunling had given her one billion for a heart method, she couldn’t be unfair—Fu Xiyan’s mental method should also command a price of one billion.
Fu Xiyan, Tang Yichen, and Su Luo were all surprised and speechless, finding Gu Zhiqi’s words somewhat preposterous.
Only Su Yunling’s eyebrows quivered slightly, and looking at Gu Zhiqi, he asked, "His mental method also has an issue?"
Gu Zhiqi turned her head to look at Su Yunling and nodded lightly, "The problem is the same as with the Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth Five Systems Heart Method you gave me."
Upon hearing this, Su Yunling’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Seconds later, he glanced at Tang Yichen and said, "Show the child the mental method you practice."
Previously, Gu Zhiqi had told him about the problem with the Five Systems Heart Method.
Indeed, just as the child said, the highest cultivation level among his Ancient martial artists could only reach the peak of the fourth-order.
Now thinking carefully, not only his subordinates but also the entire Ever Winning Army, and even the whole Ancient Martial Arts World, commonly faced this issue.
The martial artists with good talent all seemed to stop at the peak of the fourth-order, with only a very few able to step into the fifth order.
Originally, when the child mentioned there was a problem with his and his subordinates’ mental methods, he did not think much of it.
But now, he couldn’t help but wonder.
Listening to Su Yunling’s words, Tang Yichen at first gave a vacant "Huh?"
Then, subconsciously, he pulled out his phone and started searching for the mental method file.
However, as he searched, he came back to his senses, flipping through while repeatedly glancing up, sometimes at Gu Zhiqi and sometimes at Su Yunling.
