“Kid?” The bartender followed the man’s gaze and took just one glance before looking away, uninterested, “They do look quite young.”

“Not that young anymore,” Fu Yunshen laughed lightly, his tone leisurely, “In three years, they’ll be of legal marriage age.”

“…” The bartender had no response to that; he shook his head and lowered his voice, “Be careful, there’s a bounty on your head.”

“Hmm?” Fu Yunshen raised an eyebrow, unsurprised, “How much are they offering?”

“An SS-rank bounty, one billion US dollars, currently ranked seventh on the Bounty List,” the bartender stared at him, “At least ten people on the hunters’ list have taken up this bounty. Now do you realize how much you’re hated?”

Whoever made the top ten of the Bounty List was everyone’s target; not killing them would be like turning your back on money.

Fu Yunshen’s peach blossom eyes curved, hinting at some allure, “Well, they’ll have to find me first.”

The bartender agreed on this point and said, “Even the IBI can’t find you; your ability to stay hidden is probably only second to that number one on the list.”

The IBI, short for International Bureau of Investigation.

“You can’t compare that.” Fu Yunshen spoke nonchalantly, “That number one hasn’t changed for many years, and I’ve only just made the list.”

The bounty amount for number one on the list surpasses the combined total of the other nine, high enough to compete with the GDP of a small country on the Ancient O Continent. But no one has dared to take it on, showing just how difficult it is to kill the person at number one.

No, it would be more accurate to say that they can’t even be found.

“I’m really curious now, who exactly is this Diviner?” the bartender clicked his tongue, “How could ‘they’ be more hated than you?”

The other targets on the Bounty List had at least some trace to follow, but this number one had vanished, leaving behind no information whatsoever.

Moreover, the title of Diviner was incredibly arrogant.

Even the true Magicians and Witches of the Ancient O Continent wouldn’t dare to call themselves Diviners.

There are Fortune Tellers today too, but like ancient martial artists, there aren’t many real ones left; most have retreated from the world, and the rest are charlatans and tricksters.

If someone could truly foresee everything, it would be utterly absurd.

Fu Yunshen raised his peach blossom eyes, half-smiling, “What are you implying?”

“The truth. You’re naturally disliked, but still, you need to be careful. One billion dollars is enough to buy an island. And you know those hunters on the list are like madmen. But—” the bartender paused and frowned, “Are you really planning to stay here? I thought you’d at least head to the capital.”

“Hmm.” Fu Yunshen half-lifted his eyelids, absent-minded, “I do intend to stay in Shanghai City for a while.”

Upon hearing that, an outrageous thought suddenly popped into the bartender’s mind, “For a woman?”

Fu Yunshen raised his eyebrows, unhurried, “What are you talking about? She’s just a kid.”

The bartender’s expression changed, “You’re crazy.”

“I’ve been crazy for a long time,” Fu Yunshen stood up, draped his coat over his arm casually, his smile heedless of the world. He patted the bartender’s shoulder, “Drink less, it’s bad for your health.”

The Underground City did not require any form of identification for entry, and was populated by all kinds of people, many of whom deliberately concealed their identities.

Along the sides of the road were various shops, with architecture differing according to what was sold.

There were Ancient Roman, Gothic, and Baroque buildings from the Ancient O Continent, as well as classical garden-style architecture from Hua Country.
