Chapter 351 She Actually Discovered It

Simone gazed at him with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

“Why are you so certain, Bailey?” she inquired. “Who informed you?”

Bailey chuckled. “No one informed me. No one in this world can control me.”

Simone knew that with Bailey’s strength, he wouldn’t bother lying about this. She asked, “Could it be

that you divined it?”

Bailey looked at her. “You catch on quickly. Yes, I divined it. The opportunity to escape this prison lies

with you.”

For many years, he had divined once every year, and they had all been failures.

Until recently, someone approached him and told him they had found a geomancer who seemed to be

from another world and wanted him to go and see if there was a problem personally.

Initially, he wasn’t very interested.

He casually divined the future and unexpectedly found that his chance was connected to this person.

That was why he took advantage of that person’s arrangement and coincidentally met Simone.

Sure enough, he couldn’t use physiognomy on Simone, nor could he predict her future.

For many years, he had never encountered someone like her before.

Simone was also quite surprised.

She had previously thought that Bailey was instigated by the person behind Jodie, but now, from what

he said, it seemed that he didn’t even care about that person behind the scenes.

“Do you know how I can assist you then?” Bailey had no ill intentions toward herself, and her master’s

list of trustworthy names also included him.

So, to the best of her abilities, she didn’t mind helping him.

Consider it a good deed.

Bailey smiled bitterly and shook his head, “I don’t know. People like us, when it comes to important

matters, can only have a vague feeling. We can’t deduce the specifics through divination.”

After that divination, he attempted to divine and deduce again, but not only did he fail, but he also

suffered backlash and was injured.

Simone furrowed her brows slightly, “If you don’t know, then it’s a bit difficult.”

Bailey smiled indifferently, “Everything has its own destiny. When the opportunity comes, you will

naturally know. I have been waiting for so many years, and I don’t mind this bit of time.” He glanced at

Simone’s neck again. “Perhaps when you decipher the secret inside the jade clasp, you can help me.”

The clothes Simone wore today had a high collar that conveniently covered the jade clasp.

It indicated that Bailey sensed it himself.

She had previously used a qi-concealing talisman to hide the aura of the jade clasp, but he could still

sense it. Truly impressive.

suspected that he had already reached the state of perfection where heaven and man are

Being discovered, Simone did not hide it and asked, “Bailey, do you know the origin of this jade clasp?”

He replied, “I only know that this is a medium artifact passed down by the grandmaster.”

Simone had experienced a lot, so she understood as soon as she heard it.

“A medium artifact? Can this thing be used as a key?”

Bailey was somewhat surprised. “You knew as soon as you heard it.”

Indeed, the more Simone interacted with him, the more he felt she was extraordinary.

“Not only can it be used as a key, but I heard that there is also a hidden map inside the clasp. The

locations on the map can bring about opportunities that even the Celestial Masters’ Sect covets.”

The Celestial Masters were individuals who had reached the state of perfection where heaven and man

were one.

He shrugged, “As for what it is, I don’t know either.”

Simone did know that there was a map inside the clasp, which was a clue left by her master in the

letter.

However, her master also didn’t know how to activate the map.

From her grandmaster to her generation, many methods had been attempted, but none had been

successful.

As for being used as a key, her master did not mention it; perhaps he didn’t even know himself.

She smiled and asked, “Bailey, may I ask how old you are?” This guy was definitely older than her

master.

Bailey was somewhat speechless, “You’re still interested in that. There’s nothing to hide; I’m twenty-

six.”

Upon hearing this age, Simone rolled her eyes. “Do you think I’m a child?”

She had already discovered from many clues that this Bailey was an “old guy.”

There was a chance that his age might even match this ancient and historic city.

Bailey reached out his hand, “Why would I lie to you? See for yourself.”

Simone looked at his outstretched hand; the aura that had been originally concealed had already been

restrained by him.

Not only was he able to hide the clasp, but he was able to hide his palm lines as well.

And now she could see the lines in his palm clearly.

She carefully examined his lifeline, and indeed, it stopped at twenty-six, but there was another

important discovery.

His lifeline disappeared after twenty-six, not like a severed lifeline, but rather, it suddenly vanished.

She said, “It really is twenty-six.”

Bailey withdrew his hand. “I told you I wasn’t lying.”

Simone looked up at him. He looked young and handsome, but his eyes carried a sense of depth and

world-weariness.

“Bailey, could it be that you are the legendary special long-lived physique?” Because she had

experienced so many mini timelines, she had some understanding of this type of physique.

Usually, this kind of long-lived physique was caused by a sudden opportunity, resulting in a bodily

mutation that remained at that age forever.

Not aging, not dying unless killed by external forces. It was the legendary immortality.

These words caused a slight change in Bailey’s indifferent face, and his eyes narrowed. “How do you

know?” He knew that Simone had been trying to figure out his age and his connection to Jodie.

Previously, he had guessed that she had discovered that he had lived for a considerable number of

years, but he never expected that she would actually figure out his true nature.

Simone said, “I happened to read about it in a book.”

Bailey had a newfound passion in his eyes, and Simone saw it.

She shrugged and said, “Unfortunately, the book has disappeared, so I can’t show it to you.”

The book was something she made up, so naturally, she couldn’t produce it.

Bailey’s eyes dimmed. “That’s a pity.”

However, he speculated that perhaps that book was the catalyst that had made Simone different.

Simone pondered for a moment and asked, “Bailey, is your immortality related to this city?”

Bailey looked at her in surprise.

She had actually discovered that, too.

It seemed that he had underestimated her once again.

He humbly remarked, “Even if I were to live forever, what would be the purpose? I would still be unable

to break free from this confinement.”

Destiny and adversity were intricately linked, and that was his present predicament.
