Chapter 142: Chapter 132: Ninth Grade Thugs for Free, I’m Not Blind!

“Each of you take one copper coin.”

“Throw it ten times at random, thinking the face side should be up.”

The Old Blind Man did not want to elaborate much and simply waved his hand, causing a copper coin to hover in front of each person.

Although everyone was confused, none of them spoke a word.

They immediately took the coin and threw it, recalling it to themselves ten times.

“After throwing heads ten times, what then?”

After the four continuously threw ten heads, they all looked at the Old Blind Man simultaneously.

“…”

“Do not use spiritual energy to interfere; let the coin fall naturally!”

The Old Blind Man’s chest heaved violently a couple of times, clearly on the verge of being vexed.

These four, if they were to intervene with spiritual energy, couldn’t they get whatever they wanted?

Would there even be a point in talking about luck then?

“You should have said so earlier…”

“I thought you wanted to see the face side.”

Gu Kuang muttered nonchalantly and casually threw the copper coin ten more times.

The other three did not use spiritual energy either.

Only then did the Old Blind Man finally feel some relief and slowly said, “Just now, you all threw ten times thinking of heads, what was the result?”

“The least was six heads, and you, Daoist Fellow, got eight.”

“What does this prove?”

“This is a form of luck.”

“It is impossible for those who have cultivated to this realm to be people with extremely poor luck.”

“Even without the influence of spiritual energy, in such simple matters, most would still be quite fortunate.”

After the Old Blind Man spoke, everyone exchanged looks, as if realizing there was some truth to it.

“Then let my grandson throw. According to you, shouldn’t he get exactly what he wants in ten throws?”

Gu Kuang deduced by analogy.

“Not necessarily!”

“Luck doesn’t work that way; it’s merely that when you wish for something, it might come true.”

“But it’s not possible to achieve that ten out of ten times.”

“Moreover… his luck might not waste itself on such trivial matters.”

“Just in the short time I have seen him myself, he has stumbled upon more than one great opportunity that others can only dream of.”

The Old Blind Man’s mystic words left everyone feeling somewhat enlightened but still quite baffled.

“But…”

“My grandson, if truly blessed with great luck as you say, then why hadn’t he been able to cultivate for eighteen years, only finding his turning point a few months ago?”

Gu Kuang frowned, still somewhat skeptical of the Old Blind Man’s judgment.

“That’s exactly right!”

“To lift higher, one must start lower; such is the way of heaven!”

“Eighteen years of accumulation, turning into a dragon leaping today!”

“It’s certain!”

“You may doubt my strength, but not my foresight!”

“Who in the Eastern Domain doesn’t know the name of Old Blind Xue Zheng, the soothsayer?”

The Old Blind Man simply raised his hand to cut off Gu Kuang’s words, adamantly ensuring the correctness of his viewpoint.

“Uh…”

The four exchanged glances.

It wasn’t that they wanted to doubt his judgment…

But the problem was – he didn’t have sight in his eyes…

His eyes appeared somewhat muddy and white, where was the sight?

“The Old Blind Man only asks for little, merely wishing for you to say some good words on his behalf.”

“Isn’t this request reasonable?”

“To be at the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, serving the Young Master Gu before and after, wouldn’t that be good?”

The Old Blind Man did not want to explain any further and directly addressed the core issue.

“Wait, didn’t you just say you weren’t someone to run errands?” Gu Kuang seemed to catch a crucial point…

“Does that matter!?”

The Old Blind Man felt he was about to explode, how could the people of the Gu Family be so different from that youngster, couldn’t they just have a normal conversation!?

“Well, it doesn’t really matter.”

“But since you just want to follow my grandson, of course, there’s no problem.”

“Changge won’t have any issues on his side either, and if needed, I can go persuade him too.”

Gu Kuang scratched his head and awkwardly coughed, considering that this indeed could only be beneficial to his grandson.

He decided not to dwell on it further.

Knowing his grandson, such an opportunity knocking at his door wouldn’t be rejected.

But he also noticed the Old Blind Man’s significant interest in his grandson!

Merely wanting their help to talk up so he wouldn’t be ignored again explained so passionately for quite a while.

“Then it’s settled.”

“Return my things.”

The Old Blind Man breathed a sigh of relief and with a wave of his hand, collected the coins back.

Simultaneously, they all sensed Gu Changge leaving the side hall.

“Whoa!”

“Mid-Stage Reach Profound Realm already?”

“The senior from your Gu Family really didn’t deceive the Old Blind Man.”

“This young man’s speed in breakthroughs is truly unprecedented!”

As a Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm, the Old Blind Man immediately sensed the change in Gu Changge’s energy!

How long had it been?

It had barely been three months since he first met this young man!

And he had already advanced to the Mid-Stage Reach Profound Realm!

If it came down to it, that old ancestor of the Gu Family hadn’t deceived him; evolving to the Seventh Grade Unlimited Realm wouldn’t even take him ten or twenty years, at most perhaps eight years and five months!

Perhaps not even five years would be necessary!

After all, apart from his aptitude, he was also blessed with luck, and his opportunities would undoubtedly not be few!

Good heavens…

There could be no further delays.

If he delayed further, this young man would progress to the Ruins Realm!

He wouldn’t really start looking down on serving as an errand runner in the Ninth Grade Annihilation Realm!

“Indeed, who else but my grandson.”

Gu Kuang’s mouth almost split to his ears, as if the breakthrough was his rather than Gu Changge’s.

“You old crazy, I think it’s really you who is blessed with great luck.”

“The last one… never mind.”

Gu Wanquan glanced at him, unable to resist making a jab.

This guy had done well to have a son who became the Young Master.

Now, his grandson had even startled the ancestor; such a prodigy had never been heard of in the Northern Domain.
