Chapter 740: Could She Still Be Alive?
In other words, “This woman’s unlucky star is the ‘Qisha’ star and her heavenly pillars clash with her parents’ and also her earth pillars are not compatible with her siblings (she should either have a younger brother or sister), and her five elements are also not compatible with either of her partners. She is twice-married and both marriages ended badly.”
He could tell that her Four Pillars of Destiny were too strong, so she would jinx her parents and siblings, and she wouldn’t get to enjoy a long life either. She would also meet with a life-threatening calamity every 7 years of her life. In other words, this would happen when she was 7, 17, 28… and so on. She would face her most testing trial when she was 27 and she would be in danger of losing her life either in a fire or drowning. According to my calculations, she would die when she is 27 years old, so if my calculations are accurate, this woman is no longer alive.”
The fortune-teller would rarely reveal someone else’s fortunes in such a direct manner. He couldn’t see so he didn’t know that after he said those words, the man who sat opposite him turned pale and looked even more upset than before.
Ye Hao’s forehead was full of sweat and every word that the old fortune-teller said were like knives that sliced into his heart one at a time.
He couldn’t control his actions because he was so agitated and suddenly rose to his feet, walked up to the fortune-teller, and gripped his arm.
“Sir… could you tell me whether she could still be alive? Does this possibility exist?”
Ye Hao was extremely emotional. All he wanted was for her to be alive. He didn’t mind if she hated him for the rest of her life, or if she no longer wanted to have anything to do with him, as long as she was alive and well.

The elderly man frowned once again and he looked very conflicted.
He had been telling fortunes for several decades but this was the first time he was asked to look into the fortunes of the deceased. Fortune-tellers believed that it was bad luck to calculate the fortunes of the deceased and that it would bring disaster upon himself. This was why all fortune-tellers were unwilling to look into the fortunes of the deceased. He was already well past his prime at 78 years of age, which was why he decided to take the risk and look into this woman’s fortunes. He wanted to use this as a chance to test out this superstition to see if disaster would befall him if he calculated the fortunes of the deceased.
He suddenly looked down and seemed to mull over Ye Hao’s question. A while later, he started to use his thumb to tap on the joints of the rest of his fingers.
Ye Hao waited anxiously for the result and his palms were clammy with sweat.
Suddenly, the elderly man looked up, opened his water bottle and took two gulps of water.
He coughed softly and sighed.
He paused for a moment before he continued, “Was this woman born in the north or the south?” He couldn’t see so he didn’t know who he was speaking to but he could guess that Ye Hao was probably that woman’s ex-husband.
“The south!” Ye Hao quickly replied and his anxiety grew even more. He had never believed in superstitions but at this very moment, he seemed even more superstitious than those middle-aged women.
“If she was born in the south, she would meet with some kind of calamity that would have to do with water. In other words, her cause of death would be related to water. It is possible that she had died either in a river or in the sea. It is also possible that she committed suicide after being unable to shake the curse of resentment off.”

“Could she still be alive?” Ye Hao asked. He felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest and the anxiety and terror he felt made his breathing quicken.
The elderly man shook his head and his sorrow and pity were written all over his face.
After he thought for a moment, he finally said, “I hope that this woman is already dead. This would be the best outcome.”
