“What are you two whispering about?” Coral blushed and couldn’t help but ask.
Leo was about to answer when the chubby woman spoke up. “Hey, Leo, since you claim to be a geomancy master, talk is cheap. Why don’t you read my face? If you can tell me something accurate, I’ll believe in you. How about that?”
The chubby woman seemed drunk and her voice was loud with a hint of provocation.
Leo didn’t mind and smiled as he examined the chubby woman’s face.
Perhaps due to alcohol consumption, the chubby woman’s complexion appeared rosy on the surface. However, this was only superficial.
Facial analysis is a vast branch of geomancy with a mature system that requires great difficulty to master it completely.
Of course, precisely because of this difficulty level that if one only specializes in facial analysis as a geomancy practitioner they can still ensure their livelihood for life without any worries.
Apart from analyzing “the five senses” and “the three stops,” facial analysis has another important part called “the twelve palaces.”
The so-called twelve palaces represent success or failure in life through different positions on one’s face despite variations among different schools’ interpretations; they are generally similar overall.
These twelve palaces include: Life Palace, Wealth Palace, Sibling Palace, Property Palace, Child Palace, Servant Palace, Marriage Palace, Illnesses/Obstacles/Disasters palace, Relocation palace, Official Position/Fortune palace, Parental palace. These twelve positions fully display all good or bad luck on one’s face.
Through analyzing these twelve palaces’ features such as coloration intensity or smoothness of lines/moles etc., we can judge various fortunes throughout someone’s lifetime.
If we want to know about sibling relationship, we look at the Sibling Palace; if we want to know career development prospects, then look at Official Position/Fortune Palace; if love is what interests us, then Marriage Palace will reveal good/bad fortune prospects. The key lies in observing colors/intensities/smoothness of lines/moles/etc within each respective position.
With some memories added after becoming an immortal cultivator, Leo could see right away there were problems with the chubby woman’s child palace.
The Child Palace position located where there is prominence under eyes represents sons for left eye while daughters for right eye respectively.
There was black energy hovering over the chubby woman’s right eye child palace which normal people cannot see but Leo could perceive using Spiritual Power.
The appearance of this anomaly indicates that the person’s daughter is sick. Judging by the concentration of black energy, if it’s only a slight amount, it means that the person’s daughter has only a minor illness. If the black energy is dense, then it’s possible that the person’s daughter has a serious illness that could be life-threatening.
Leo spoke up and said, “From your facial features, I can tell that your daughter may have been hospitalized with a serious illness and you’re worried about the high medical expenses.”
As soon as he spoke these words, everyone fell silent. No one looked at Leo but instead focused their gaze on the chubby woman.
The chubby woman across from them opened her mouth in surprise and looked at Leo with inexplicable astonishment as if she were an obsessive fan seeing her idol star.
She was truly shocked because she had never mentioned her daughter being hospitalized to any of her classmates present here today. She had just met this man for the first time and he couldn’t have heard about this matter from anywhere else.
The chubby woman sat down somewhat dazedly. The alcohol had worn off and her face was no longer flushed but rather turned somewhat pale.
Everyone could see from her change in complexion that what Leo said was true.
“Lily, what happened? What’s wrong with your daughter?”
“Why didn’t you tell us when your daughter got seriously ill?”
“Yeah! Do you not consider us good friends? Why keep everything to yourself? We would all help you out if there were any difficulties.”
Everyone began to show concern one after another causing Lily to burst into tears uncontrollably.
Leo who showed off his skills earlier gained everyone’s attention. Coral’s classmates all requested for him to read their fortunes which turned their class reunion into a fortune-telling session instead of just catching up with each other like they planned before hand.
After partying till four o’clock in afternoon, Coral checked time teasingly asking Leo, “Mr. Bloomer, will you accompany me somewhere again?”
“Where are we going now?” asked Leo confused as he didn’t understand why Coral loved attending auctions so much
“The charity auction,” replied Coral.
Leo was taken aback for a moment not understanding why Coral liked attending auctions so much until he remembered how she brought him along to Stardust Town’s auction back then.
It seemed like she guessed what was on his mind because Coral explained, “There should be something there today that you need.”
“What do I need?” asked Leo puzzledly.
Coral smiled mysteriously without giving anything away saying, “You’ll know when we get there.”
“I don’t really understand, but you should like it. Let’s go,” Coral replied.
Leo thought of the Purple Radiance he had won at the auction in Stardust Town last time and his heart skipped a beat. Perhaps there would be something useful for cultivators at today’s auction as well.
The charity auction was being held at a five-star hotel called City Star Hotel.
What is charity? To put it bluntly, it is something that rich people play with. Since they are rich people, they naturally belong to the so-called upper class and gather together as wealthy celebrities.
When they arrived at the hotel entrance and got out of the car, Leo handed over the car keys to the hotel’s designated valet parking attendant.
Just as they were about to enter the hotel, a man suddenly shouted from behind them, “Miss Wilde, Mr. Bloomer!”
Turning around, coincidentally enough, it was Tony whom Leo had met before at their class reunion party.
Then another man appeared behind Tony.
He looked like he was in his thirties with sharp eyes that exuded a mature male charm. Leo could tell from his gaze that this person must have deep scheming skills up his sleeve.
As for this man’s appearance, he had just shaved off his beard; although not particularly handsome-looking facial features-wise, he was still quite dignified looking overall; wearing an all-black suit which fitted him perfectly giving off an irresistible charm unique to successful men.
This man first glanced briefly towards Leo before quickly shifting his gaze towards Coral who stood beside him on one side.
Coral didn’t know this man and smiled as she looked towards Tony, “Tony, you’re here early. Who is this?”
Tony took half a step back and introduced, “This is Bayden Hood from Forestair Group. Mr. Hood, this elegant beauty beside me is Coral Wilde, the CEO of Wilde Jewelry Group. Miss Wilde has Geomancy master Leo Bloomer by her side.”
Upon hearing “Geomancy Master,” Bayden paused for a moment then looked towards Leo with slightly different eyes than before.
However, businessmen like him never revealed their thoughts on their faces. Even though he inwardly held a disdainful attitude towards Leo’s profession as a geomancy master, he still politely shook hands with him.
As they walked towards the hotel entrance, Bayden’s attention was entirely focused on Coral. He practically ignored Leo’s presence, completely engrossed in observing Coral.
