I Want a Divorce by Abigail Quinn

Chapter 91
“What substance could the bridge pier be made of? It must not be ordinary as it can even scare the fierce and enormous Nubia
Python,” Oliver wondered.
Oliver originally wanted to identify it, but the bridge pier was under the Alpar River. He needed to stare at the object he wanted to
identify for three seconds before his eyes’ identification skills could be triggered.
Since he couldn’t see the bridge pier at all, there was no way to trigger his identification skills.
Among the nine people, only Oliver knew where the Nubia Python was and that they weren’t in danger. The other eight all
shuddered with fear.
If the Nubia Python suddenly emerged from the water, then all the people on the river would probably be dead. The creature was
not something that humans could confront.
Fortunately, everyone dauntingly crossed the dangerous river without mishap. After they climbed up to the shore, they all
breathed long sighs of relief.
Delight overtook Gunther’s withered face as he realized that bringing Oliver here was his greatest blessing.
From escaping the Enchanting Fog to unintentionally scaring off the Great Wolf and even avoiding the Nubia Python and
crossing the Alpar River, these fatal difficulties that everyone thought could not be solved were all resolved by Oliver. Whether he
was really capable or just too lucky, he always managed to solve the problems.
If it weren’t for Oliver, they would still be waiting for their deaths in Enchanting Fog!
Just then, Gunther noticed that everyone was happy, except for Oliver, who was staring at the river blankly. He patted Oliver on
the shoulder and said, “Oliver, thank you. But... the bridge piers are under the river, so no one can really see them. How did you
know they’re here?”
Oliver pondered for a while before answering, “Mr. Fox, I roughly studied this river from where we came in until where we are
now. It surrounds Mount Rockenan ahead and forms a circle around it. Moreover, the river is not running water but standing
water. The water level of the whole circle is the same, and there is no upstream or downstream. I observed it throughout the long
journey and found that its shape resembles the essence of the Eight Doors Formation, namely Beginning, Tranquility, Life,
Misfortune, Obstacle, Perturbation, Destruction, and Death. The Door of Life from the Eight Doors Formation is located at the

bridge pier here. Actually, all things in this world correspond to each other. There’s life and death, up and down, and sky and
earth. There is an effective antidote for every acute poison out there, so naturally, there would be a Door of Life in a rare,
dangerous spot like the Alpar River.””
Gunther nodded as he listened. He was also good at identifying antiques and had a profound knowledge of history, but he knew
nothing about divining skills such as sorcery and divination
Moreover, he had never expected that Oliver would know these so well at such a young age.
The more time Gunther spent with Oliver, the more his impression of the latter changed. This young man gave him too many
surprises.
Frankly, Gunther didn’t care about Oliver in the past. He felt that Oliver’s close relationship with his daughter Hailey would have a
negative impact on her and that Hailey was too good for Oliver.
It was only now that Gunther gradually recognized that Oliver was definitely an outstanding talent. The latter had the ability to
make money and possessed all kinds of knowledge and even amazing luck. The only thing he lacked compared to Julian was a
wealthy family. Other than that, Oliver was way better than Julian in all aspects.
With Oliver’s ability, his net worth would definitely exceed billions of dollars in ten years. As for Julian, he would merely inherit the
assets of the older generation.
At that moment, Gunther realized it wasn’t Hailey who was too good for Oliver. Rather, Oliver was way too good for Hailey.
Even Gabriel came over and asked Oliver curiously, “Oliver, how do you know so much about sorcery and divination?”
Oliver quickly shook his head. “I only know a little bit of it...”
This was actually an excuse he made up. Oliver wasn’t fully proficient in the study of sorcery and divination, but combined with
his visual identification skills, people thought he was truly knowledgeable in the subject.
Gabriel looked at the Alpar River that they had just crossed and shook his head. “Oliver, you young man... I don’t know what to
say. I have lived for over 70 years, and it’s my first time seeing a young fellow like you who’s familiar with things that only the old
sorcerer could comprehend!”
Gunther got so excited that he suddenly started coughing, and after a few coughs, he began to cough up blood.

Hailey quickly supported him and found him a nearby stone to sit down. She fetched some pills and hot water for him to take the
medicine.
“Dad, don’t talk for now. Please calm down.”
Gunther wiped the blood from his mouth and said with a smile, “I’m all right. I’m just too happy. See, I survived the Enchanting
Fog, the ferocious Great Wolf, the Alpar River, and the Nubia Python. Doesn’t all this prove that I’m very lucky?”
Hailey had tears in her eyes, but she smiled and responded, “Yes, Dad. You are very lucky.”
“Right? We managed to reach this place even after encountering all those obstacles. Who knows? Maybe I can really find the
cure to my sickness,” replied Gunther with a smile.
Hailey just nodded and tried not to let her tears flow out.
The legends about invulnerable and immortal people were baseless, and everyone knew that it was too unrealistic. Still, Hailey
sincerely prayed to the Almighty now to give Gunther some hope and an elixir of immortality. Even if she had to trade her life for
it, she would be willing to do so..
Gunther took the medicine and sipped some hot water. Then, he stood up with the support of his crutch and said, “Let’s go. The
more we walk, the closer we get!”
Of course, the others didn’t have a problem with that. After a while of walking, Oliver took the lead. It was better that he did
1.
This was because his eyes could identify everything he could see, and he could recognize whether it was dangerous.
No one else volunteered to lead. After Isaac, the tour guide, died, Louis was supposed to be the one to lead the way. But
although he could fight well, he was clueless about how to identify dangers along this perilous road.
Oliver walked ahead, followed by Wayne and Simon, and then Sienna and Hailey. Louis held Gunther, while Yoseph
accompanied Gabriel.
The Nocturna Heron that Gabriel was worried about didn’t show up, and they had safely crossed the Alpar River without mishap.
Now, he felt a little uneasy because of how smooth the journey was.

It was not that he wanted danger to come their way; he just thought the road was abnormally quiet and uneventful. After they
walked for another two to three hours, the sun set on the west hillside, and the sky gradually darkened.
Oliver found a nearby flat ground with good visibility of the area and stopped. Then, he waved to Louis and said, “Let’s set up the
camp here tonight.”
Gunther nodded and sat down to rest. Mount Rockenan was right in front of them, but they weren’t even halfway there after/
walking for hours.
Gabriel looked at the rosy afterglow in the west, and then at the dark sky above him. Suddenly, he pointed at some black spots in
the sky and asked, “What is that?”
