The so-called new house hadn't been secured yet, so Wei Yang returned to his rented apartment. Since he was discharged from the hospital quite late, it was already evening by the time he got home. The building remained dark and quiet, and even the group of people guarding the entrance hadn't changed much. The middle-aged man at the head of the group glanced up at Zhang Xiuqi, then quickly looked down, not even attempting to make eye contact. No wonder, Wei Yang chuckled. The person behind him, whether in…- 380.6 K • Completed
- Due to his overly excited and saliva-spewing tirade, when Zeng Jingxuan walked back into the ward, the old swindler couldn't stop himself in time. His old face twisted comically for a few seconds before he let out a groan and slumped back onto the hospital bed, plastering on an ingratiating smile. "Master Zeng… Uh… Look at us here…" Zeng Jingxuan ignored him and instead turned his gaze to the young man sitting to the side. Wei Yang didn't speak but merely smiled and nodded. Everything was…

- The sudden turn of events was so unexpected that even the battle-hardened little charlatan couldn't help but be momentarily stunned. He couldn't resist asking, "What Talisman Jade?" Zeng Jingxuan also seemed surprised. "You don't know? The jade pendant hanging around your neck is a ritual instrument made only by the true heirs of Longhu Mountain. It has talismanic inscriptions carved into the jade, which can ward off evil and protect the wearer. The reason you survived the encounter with the Yellow Husk…

- Noises came from afar, chaotic and sharp, like a woman screaming at the top of her lungs. Wei Yang's heart raced. He felt as though he had heard this voice before. Who was that screaming woman? What was she shouting? Gradually, amidst the hysterical cries, two figures vaguely appeared, somewhat hazy and swaying, hard to make out clearly. It looked like one person was choking another. The screams became intermittent, turning into dying moans. Was it the woman being choked? Why was she being choked… Wei…

- In the afternoon, Wei Yang and Sun Chengfeng went to the scenic villa area in the suburbs to inspect the feng shui of Mr. Li's new home. The old charlatan praised Wei Yang's new outfit extravagantly and grandiosely bestowed upon himself the title of "famous master." Different clients required different approaches, and while there were few like the blunt and simple-minded Mr. Wang, for high-end intellectuals, a well-spoken and knowledgeable apprentice who was proficient in feng shui was far more useful than…

- The next day, the money arrived in the account. Not only was there the promised 300,000 yuan from Boss Wang, but an additional 100,000 yuan was included as a "consultation fee" for the master's guidance. Combined with the earlier earnings from the Bronze turtle and the Jade Lotus Platform, this single deal had brought in over 1.4 million yuan. For Jieshui Studio, which often went three years without a major job, this was a substantial windfall. The old swindler, Sun Chengfeng, was beaming with joy. He…

- The following week was naturally a flurry of activity as they prepared to close the net. While the boss, Mr. Wang, appeared coarse, he was a seasoned businessman and not as foolish as he looked. He had sent his men to survey the "ritual instrument market" for a sampling. However, Cultural Street was only so big, and whose ears and eyes could be sharper than those within the circle? In the end, Mr. Wang obediently fell into the trap and, together with Sun Chengfeng, purchased the Lotus Platform. Wei Yang…

- Upon clearly seeing the contents of the box, Wei Yang's eyes lit up instantly. "A Jade Lotus Platform?" In the center of the box lay a lotus platform carved from jade. The so-called lotus platform has two interpretations in Buddhism and Taoism. In Buddhism, it is the Nine-Grade Lotus Platform, and in Taoism, it is the Twelve-Grade Lotus Platform. Both are legendary platforms upon which Bodhisattvas and ancient masters are said to sit, representing the unity of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism—"Red…

- Leaving Jieshui Studio and walking west along the main street for about ten minutes, the antique charm of Cultural Street was left behind, replaced by a cluster of low-rise residential buildings. This was the old district that had yet to be redeveloped, mostly consisting of tube-shaped buildings from the 1970s and 1980s. There was no proper urban planning here, and the buildings were crammed tightly together, creating a chaotic yet vibrant atmosphere. By now, it was completely dark, and the streets were…

- "Master Sun! This old fool truly didn't recognize Mount Tai before his eyes! I was far too disrespectful this morning! I must ask you to take a careful look at my cemetery. Otherwise, I really can't rest easy..." When they met again, Boss Wang's previously insincere, perfunctory smile was gone, replaced by a face full of genuine fear. The first thing he did upon entering was bow and apologize. Sun Chengfeng smiled lightly. "Boss Wang, you're too kind. Feng shui is also about fate. Since you've placed…
