302: Chapter 302 The Truth Behind the Koi Character Set-Up 302: Chapter 302 The Truth Behind the Koi Character Set-Up Gu Zhiqi didn’t answer Gu Mengyang’s question, but said meaningfully, “I remember you mentioned that her fans are very loyal.”

Gu Mengyang nodded.

The company had done fan data analysis on her, and he had specifically looked into it.

Her fans truly had a strong loyalty; once someone became a fan, there was almost no one who unfollowed her, and furthermore, they would gradually become die-hard fans.

“This jade, in addition to absorbing the destiny of those nearby, also absorbs the destiny of those who hold affection for the wearer,” Gu Zhiqi said, her eyes slightly downturned, making it impossible to discern her expression.

At Gu Zhiqi’s words, Gu Mengyang’s expression subtly changed.

“In order to increase the affection value of those people, after their fortune is absorbed, they will receive some minor rewards, like catching the last bus, winning a prize, just barely passing an exam, or making the right choice once, in exchange for more affection value.”

“The higher the affection value, the more fortune is absorbed.

When the day comes that their fortune is completely drained, regardless of how much they adore the wearer, they will be abandoned by the Evil jade.”

Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s explanation, Gu Mengyang fell silent.

Suddenly remembering that his teacher’s health had been declining over the past two years, and that recently his teacher had been drawn into an academic plagiarism scandal, Gu Mengyang asked Gu Zhiqi another question, “Will the destiny of the wearer’s relatives also be absorbed?”

“It won’t absorb the destiny of those related by blood to the wearer.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Mengyang breathed a sigh of relief, then, thinking of something, he looked up at Gu Zhiqi again and asked, “How long would it take for someone’s destiny to be completely absorbed?”

“It depends on the degree of affection and the length of contact; the more someone adores her and the longer they’re in contact with her, the quicker their destiny is drained.”

Zhou Qingyan had possessed this jade pendant for at least two years, Gu Zhiqi surmised, so there must be quite a few whose destinies had been drained.

After hearing everything, Gu Mengyang lapsed into a prolonged silence.

“You keep the jade for now,” Gu Zhiqi said, tossing the jade to Gu Mengyang.

Gu Mengyang immediately reached out to catch it, taking the jade pendant in his hand.

“The luck absorption has been temporarily sealed by me; a portion of your destiny is still inside it.

Wear it for a couple of days, and your fortune will return to you.”

After catching the jade pendant, Gu Mengyang seemed slightly disgusted, switching from pinching the jade to holding the string, and then he looked up at Gu Zhiqi and asked, “And what about the other destinies?”

“The other destinies have already been absorbed by Zhou Qingyan.

Before retrieving the energies, some preparation work needs to be done.”

Zhou Qingyan had absorbed too much destiny from too many people.

It would be too troublesome to search for each one individually, so it was necessary to extract all the destinies from her body at once and figure out a way to return them to the bodies of the luck takers.

This was a huge undertaking, and with her current Mystic Master level, it would be a bit risky to try to do it alone; she would definitely need two more helpers.

Listening to Gu Zhiqi’s response, Gu Mengyang realized he had misunderstood.

His mouth twitched slightly, and he spoke, “I meant, how are you planning to deal with the destinies of the others?”

“That is not for you to concern yourself with,” Gu Zhiqi replied offhandedly.

At her words, Gu Mengyang clicked his tongue lightly and spoke again, “I know you won’t just sit by and do nothing, I was just wondering if there is anything I need to do?”

He knew the young lady’s temperament well.

If this had only involved one or two people, the young lady might indeed have not bothered.

But this matter involved too many people; she would definitely intervene.
