153: Chapter 153: Want to Lift the Blockade?

Her expression flickered for a moment, a smile hanging on the corner of her mouth as she approached Gu Zhiqi, “Little girl, when did you get here?”

“Oh, when you mentioned that the Ancient Martial Arts were sealed.” Gu Zhiqi shifted her gaze away from the flower bed, her eyes pale as she looked at Gu Yuluo.

She thought so.

That day at the hotel, the reason why Gu Yuluo did not use her Ancient Martial Arts was that they were sealed.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuluo’s smile slightly stiffened, and when she met the indifference and dispersiveness in the little girl’s eyes, the forced smile on her lips couldn’t hold out any longer.

Originally, there was some anxiety in her heart.

She wondered if the little girl, knowing that her Ancient Martial Arts were sealed, would worry or ask questions.

But, after seeing the little girl’s expression, Gu Yuluo realized that all her concern was just self-imposed.

The little girl had lost her memories, and with no memories, it seemed she also lost her emotions.

This realization made Gu Yuluo’s heart feel choked up.

At this moment, she selfishly wished that the little girl would worry about her for once.

Thinking about it, the smile disappeared completely from Gu Yuluo’s lips, and even her entire being radiated an aura of despair and dejection.

If the little girl didn’t care at all, then for whom was she pretending to be strong?

Gu Zhiqi looked at Gu Yuluo, now enveloped in an aura of gloominess, lifted an eyelid, and spoke up, “Want to get rid of the seal?”

Gu Yuluo: ?!

Gu Yuluo suddenly looked up, a glint of light in her eyes.

Look!

Look, the little girl does care about her!

“Twenty million.”

Gu Yuluo “…”

With Gu Zhiqi’s lazy, careless quoting of the price, Gu Yuluo felt as if her heart shattered into pieces.

A look of resented grievance filled her eyes as she stared at Gu Zhiqi, speaking faintly, “Between family members, can’t we have more genuine expressions of affection and less financial transactions?”

“Oh, even blood brothers should settle accounts clearly,” Gu Zhiqi replied unhurriedly.

Not to mention that Gu Yuluo was only the original owner’s third sister, even if her master sought her out for treatment, she would still have to pay.

Gu Yuluo “…”

“Do you know how to remove the seal on Ancient Martial Arts?” Gu Yuluo looked at Gu Zhiqi with a skeptical face.

The old thing that had sealed her Ancient Martial Arts was a fifth-order Ancient martial artist.

To break the seal, not to mention the method, one must at least reach the fifth order in Ancient Martial Arts.

She had considered asking for help to unlock her seal, but among the people she knew, the highest was only a peak fourth-order Ancient martial artist.

“Give it a try.”

On Aquamarine Star, Gu Zhiqi had encountered people with their Ancient Martial Arts sealed.

For some, the seals were easily removed, while for others, it was more troublesome and required auxiliary items for the removal.

But this was not Aquamarine Star, and she wasn’t entirely sure if she could remove it.

Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s words, the skepticism in Gu Yuluo’s eyes deepened, “What order of Ancient Martial Arts do you have?

The martial artist who sealed me was fifth order.”

Gu Yuluo was aware of Gu Zhiqi’s formidable Ancient Martial Arts, but the girl was so mysterious that, up to now, she didn’t know the order of the little girl’s Ancient Martial Arts.

“Hand.” Gu Zhiqi’s gaze dropped slightly, landing on Gu Yuluo’s wrist, “Let me feel your pulse.”

Seeing this, Gu Yuluo hesitantly extended her hand to Gu Zhiqi despite the skepticism in her eyes.

Gu Zhiqi placed her fingers on Gu Yuluo’s wrist, and no more than a few seconds after her pale, slender fingers touched the wrist, Gu Zhiqi’s eyes lifted curiously to glance at Gu Yuluo.

“What’s that look for?

Don’t tell me, you’ve found some incurable disease from my pulse?” Gu Yuluo asked irritably, noting Gu Zhiqi’s expression.

Gu Zhiqi did not immediately respond to Gu Yuluo but silently counted to three, then hesitantly asked, “Are you…

sure about your own gender?”
