Chapter 172 Something Is Very Wrong
"What do you mean?"
Guo Yang's face instantly turned grim.
Buying a coffin, wasn't that cursing their Guo family?
"Senior Brother Bai, let's go!"
Chen Xuan said nothing more, waved his hand, and left with Bai Yong.
Guo Yang stared at their retreating backs, a surge of anger mixed with an inexplicable sense of unease.
"Hmph, who do you think you are, acting so high and mighty? With Master Lai here, does our Guo family need to beg you?" Yu Qiaoyun said, hands on her hips, disdainfully.
Just then, a booming voice from outside announced, "Master Lai from Port City has arrived!"
...
Leaving the Guo family, Bai Yong was furious, cursing the Guo family incessantly, wishing he could dig up their ancestral graves.
He took a deep breath, his face full of apology, "Junior Brother Chen, I never expected the Guo family to be such people. I'm truly sorry for delaying the detoxification for Senior Mother. This is all my fault."
Chen Xuan waved his hand calmly, "It's nothing. The Guo family will come begging soon enough."
"Huh? Junior Brother Chen, what do you mean by that... could it be that even Master Lai can't solve the Guo family's troubles? Did Junior Brother Chen see something at the Guo family's place earlier?"
Bai Yong paused, then couldn't help but ask.
Chen Xuan smiled mysteriously and uttered a sentence that shocked Bai Yong: "This Guo family has been afflicted by the White Tiger Sha."
"White Tiger Sha?"
Bai Yong was startled, a look of fear crossing his face. "The White Tiger Sha has been a notorious malevolent aura since ancient times."
"That's right!"
Bai Yong couldn't help but say, "But the White Tiger Sha also has different grades. If this is a low-grade White Tiger Sha, then with Master Lai's reputation, he could probably break it. Wouldn't that delay Junior Brother Chen from getting the Thousand-Year Snow Spirit Fruit?"
Chen Xuan smiled and shook his head, "Senior Brother Bai, don't forget, a Feng Shui master previously lost his life trying to break this White Tiger Sha. The perilous nature of the White Tiger Sha is evident!"
Bai Yong was taken aback, his face covered in fear.
The White Tiger Sha was naturally intended to take the lives of the Guo family members. Now, it was even taking the lives of bystanders, proving that this White Tiger Sha was not a simple low-grade one.
"Junior Brother Chen, if it's a low-grade White Tiger Sha, there are ways to break it. If it's a high-grade White Tiger Sha, even immortals would have a headache. Do you have any good methods?" Bai Yong asked.
Chen Xuan smiled faintly, "Heaven's secrets cannot be revealed."
Bai Yong's curiosity was piqued, itching like a cat scratching, wanting to witness Chen Xuan's incredible methods.
However, he would see it sooner or later, so he suppressed his curiosity.
"Junior Brother Chen, where are we going now?" Bai Yong asked.
"Senior Brother Bai, you find a hotel to rest for a while. I need to take care of some business," Chen Xuan said after thinking.
Bai Yong nodded and entered a nearby hotel.
After Bai Yong left, Chen Xuan took out his phone and called the Ji family in Jiangbei, "I'm coming to take over the medicinal garden. Make the arrangements."
"Master Chen, I will arrange it for you immediately." Upon receiving the call, Ji Xiong's hanging heart finally settled.
Since Chen Xuan accepted their medicinal garden, it meant that Chen Xuan would not allow the wealthy families of Jiangbei to join forces against their Ji family.
After hanging up, Chen Xuan hailed a taxi and headed to the Ji family's medicinal garden.
...
At the same time.
A portly old man in his seventies or eighties, dressed in a magnificent Feng Shui master's robe, arrived at the Guo family villa. This was the renowned Master Lai from Port City!
"Master Lai, we are counting entirely on you for this matter!" Guo Yang bowed respectfully.
Master Lai glanced at Guo Yang and shook his head dismissively, "My master and your grandfather were rivals back then. I didn't expect that in your generation, the Guo family would have fallen to such a state. It's truly a disgrace."
Guo Yang's old face flushed, and he dared not retort.
In recent years, the Guo family had focused on business and neglected the inheritance and development of Feng Shui and esoteric arts, which led to their current predicament.
"Alright, enough pleasantries. I have my rules. Whether I can solve the trouble or not, I charge ten million. You transfer ten million to my account first," Master Lai said.
"Ah? You collect money even if it's not solved?" Guo Yang was taken aback.
"You're not planning to pay?" Master Lai sneered.
"I'll have someone transfer it now."
Guo Yang shook his head like a rattle drum and quickly instructed someone to transfer money to Master Lai.
Seeing that ten million had been received in the bank account, Master Lai said indifferently, "Alright, now take me there."
Guo Yang led Master Lai towards the backyard. After a short distance, they arrived at an open space.
Master Lai carefully observed the surrounding terrain, his expression calm.
The plants and trees in other areas were lush and thriving, but in this clearing, all the vegetation had withered, and a thick aura of malevolence emanated from the ground.
After a full three minutes, Guo Yang anxiously asked, "Master Lai, how is it?"
"Heh heh, it's just a low-grade White Tiger Sha, nothing to speak of. In less than ten minutes, I can break this White Tiger Sha and even cause the Feng Shui master who cast it to suffer backlash," Master Lai said with a faint smile, withdrawing his gaze.
Not only did Master Lai correctly identify the White Tiger Sha, but he was also full of confidence. Guo Yang was overjoyed and cupped his hands, "Thank you, Master Lai!"
Master Lai, seeing the descendant of his former rival showing him such respect, felt an indescribable sense of pride.
"I'll be right back," Master Lai said as he walked towards the clearing.
Meanwhile, in a presidential suite of a hotel!
Two figures sat cross-legged on the bed and the floor. These were the master and disciple from Fenglong Mountain whom Chen Xuan had encountered at the airport that day.
Hu Tian, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Feng Yun Kun, saying urgently, "Teacher, someone is breaking the White Tiger Sha. I'm afraid it's that good-for-nothing kid from this morning who is trying to break the aura!"
Mentioning Chen Xuan, he revealed a few traces of venom.
"Is that so? Then it's perfect. Not only can I help you get revenge, but I can also deal with that kid and avenge your martial uncle, thereby promoting the name of Fenglong Mountain. It's killing two birds with one stone," Feng Yun Kun said coldly.
Hu Tian nodded.
Feng Yun Kun sneered, "I always feel that kid is a bit dangerous. In that case, let's combine our powers and push the White Tiger Sha to its extreme to eliminate him in one fell swoop."
Upon hearing this, Hu Tian stood up and kowtowed to Feng Yun Kun, "Thank you, Master, for helping me get revenge. Your great kindness is unforgettable."
"Get up. Since you are my disciple, and your Hu family has been bullied by the Guo family, I have a responsibility to uphold justice for you," Feng Yun Kun said, raising his hand.
Subsequently, Feng Yun Kun and Hu Tian, master and disciple, began to perform Fenglong Mountain's ultimate technique, activating the White Tiger Sha.
At this moment, Master Lai had arrived at the clearing.
He held a peach wood sword and a spirit talisman for breaking the aura. He suddenly threw the talisman into the air, chanting words. Suddenly, the peach wood sword pierced through the air!
The black aura, as if encountering a formidable enemy, rapidly receded, drilling into the ground.
Seeing this, Master Lai revealed a smug look and then put away his peach wood sword.
"Master Lai, your skills are indeed extraordinary!"
Guo Yang couldn't help but praise as he saw the malevolent aura dissipate.
"Just some minor tricks," Master Lai said with a chuckle, waving his hand and preparing to leave the clearing.
Before he could lift his leg, the spirit talisman he had just thrown suddenly ignited on its own!
Master Lai was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "Something is very wrong!"
